It was plainly to be seen that i he had set out for some particular place and didn't intend to be turned aside by anybody. Just as soon as the young Fox who had been follow- |ing felt sure that Yowler the Bob ! Cat was at a safe distance he after Prickly Porky. | After a while the young Fox heard | the sound of the Laughing Brook head of him. “I wonder” thought he, “what this queer fellow will do when he reaches the Laughing Brook. 1 ! wonder if that will stop him. Of course, it will” You know Reddy Fox and his family have no love for| getting thelr coats wet.

Yes. sir. that Is the | way it seemed. His dull ears had | caught that laughter and he really ! appeared to be trying to hurry. But even when Prickly Porky hurries he i4s almost painfully slow. | At last he reached the Laughing Brook, the voung Fox right behind him. “Now,” thought the latter, “he will have to stop.” only for an instant. He had reached the Laughing Brook at a point where there was a great pool and the water was deeper than in other places. ! Prickly Porky stopped only | enough to look across that pool. Then he walked right down the bank and into the water. The young Fox couldn’'t believe his eves. Once in the water. Prickly Porky began to swim. He wasn’'t much of a swim- mer. but he could swim well enough to get along. He had floating, because those little spears, which we call.quills, hidden in his coat were filled with air and helped 10 keep him up. Straight across that pool he swam. while the young Fox Sat on the bank and watched him. When he reached the other side he crawled out on the bank. Then he Shufed along until he came to an old log- that was partly in the water ll"d partly on the bank. Out on this he crept until he was near the end. All The time he was grunting to him- ! Selt. When he reached the end of the log he =at down. Right around the end of that log were the leaves of water lilies. Prickly Porky reached PRICKLY PORKY STOPPED ONLY LONG ENOUGH TO LOOK ACROSS THAT POOL. out and pulled one of these to him. Then he began to eat it. As he ate he still grunted, but that grunt was no longer fretful. It was a contented grunt. \He was happy, perfectly happy. When he had finished that leaf he reached out for another. The young Fox understood now why Prickly Porky had left that tree back in the Green Forest; he had wanted a chang® of food and he had known just where to find it. He had started oui to get those lily pads and nothing could stop him. You see, he is one of those people who, when they make up their mind to do a thing, will do it in spite 'of everything. Bo it was_that the young Fox learned that Prickly Porky is one ot the most independent of ail the little people in the Green Forest and that it isn't necessary to be big and flerce and strong to command-respect. The young Fox watched Prickly Porky as long as his patience would hold out. At last he made up his mini that Prickly Porky intended to spend the rest of the day there, so he once 1 more started off to see what more he could learn about the ways of the Great World. % (Copyright, 1922, by T.

HE Limdsay twins, who were not yet four, didn’t mind how far they rode when they mo- tored, provided fhey exuld sit on the floor of the car with all tae toys they wanted. This particular day they were not going to ride very far, but they were going to ride slowly, for their mother was going to help her father take poor old Peter, who had been her father's faithful manservant for many years, to a house in the coun- try, where they hoped he would re- cuperate from a paralytic stroke that he had had in June. Peter was old and trembly, and it was all too evident that the twins would have to ride on the front seat with their mother. They behauved like lambs the first hour, but then they grew very restless. Not even the halt for picnic lunch could quell their exuberant spirits. Their pretty mother, whose heart was heavy with many troubles, was rataer impatient with them. They. frolicked madly while their grandfather carried the dishes 5o that Peter could stow them in the picnic kit. Peter was distinctly tearful. He had crawled about wearily trying to serve them until he had had to sit Gown exhausted for his own meal. Merriam had protested at hls serving, but he had_Insisted. “Maybe, Miss Merriam.” he had quavered, “it's the last time that Pe- ter can ever wait on you or yours.

Let's all go riding right there, all of us, and see our Daddy Boy!” They had lunched under a wonder- ful old beech tree. Merriam went back to pick up the twins’ sweaters. For a moment she leaned against the tree and closed her eyes. She looked i rather frail against the silvery bark. A brown velvet tam topped her bronze curls. She was wearing 2 rust-brown coat and a checked sports skirt, and her dusty oxfords were as 1fy-toed as her children’s. “The child looks positively shabby! her father thought angrily.
