PETER RABBIT. _Peter Rabbit had dared Reddy Fox. Fie had told Reddy that he darsd go Wwhere Reddy dfdn’t dare go. With Reddy almost at his heels he had dodged into Buster Bear's bed- Toom. You would have laughed to see how suddenly Reddy Fox stopped. He stopped suddenly that he al- most fell over on his head. You see, he knew that that was Buster Bear's bed- room. What his nose told him that Buster Bear was in there S0 Reddy stopped just as Old Man Coyote had stopped the time he €hased Jumper the Hare in there. Reddy backed off a few feet t down on the snow.

Every woman can be ful interesting that her looks won't- matter. Naturally, she will both, but that's as Nature either beauti- or so want to be made her. If she isn't beautiful, and can’t be, even though she has a clear skin, glossy hair, bright eyes, a good car- riage and good figure, ali of which blessings she can acquire by her own efforts, then she must put most of her work upon making herself in- teresting. First of all, she must em- phasize her type, or establish one. There are boyish types, sweet young girl types, the sensible womanly- woman type: oh, there are thousands, There are the many slightly artistic types, the ‘ntellectual ones, which not, however, wear ugly dresses and school spectacles. If the lifeless, rather anemic woman ean 'simply find her type, and then accentuate jt, she is made socially If homely, the woman should dress & little out of the ordinary, but not enough to be freakish. It's amazing how interesting a woman is said to be, when people begin to say, smil- that she's eccentric. Every one wants to meet her. She choose a style of dressing, and never change it, merely modify it to keep it with fashion. I know one woman who looked rather a figure in an Italian painting.

Yes, sir, that's what I'll do. I'll take his dare.” Reddy uncurled his big, soft tall from around his feet. Then, for all the world as if he were afraid of making a noise, he stole up to the en- trance of Buster Bear's bedroom. For a moment or two he hesitated. He could smell Buster Bear, and irf spite of himself it made him uneasy. But it wouldn't do to have it known that Peter Rabbit had dared_go where he didn’t dare go. Reddy poked his head inside the entrance. Now Peter Rabbit had been waiting just inside that entrance. It hadn't entered his funny little head that Reddy would ever think of following him in there.

For the most part, family names have developed in Europe and brought to America “ready made,” to be changed somewhat at times, under the influences of the English tongue. There are, howéver, a few excep tions. Among the Dutch a consider- able number of family names actually developed after their arrival and set- tlement in the New York section, Family names among the Dutch were not fully an accomplished nstitution until considerably after they were well established and hereditary among the English. At the period i which the Dutch first settied New York the surnames descriptive of parentage, occupation or former residence, were just in the process of change into real heredi- tary family names, and undoubtedly a great many of them so crystallized right in New York State, though in the individual instance it is not al- ways easy to tell whether the “crys- tallization” occurred before or after the settlement. Hotaling and Houghtaling are Dutch names. The original form was “De Hooghteeling.” In this case the “de” is not the same as the French word for “of.” It iz the same as the English “the” Translated into Eng- lish, De Hooghteeling”” means “The Accountant” or “The Money-Col- lector.” (Copyright.) “A husband is like a Ford. 1It's { easy to hold 'em steady if you keep ‘em in a rut.

C, MONDAY, - FEBRUARY 23, TfieAstonisbingAdventuré of Jane Smith {Continued from Yesterday's Star.) With all her might she resisted this sensation and the fear that it suggested. But as the night passed to midnight and beyond a strange feeling of being one watcher in a slumbering household Hetached itself from the general confusion, and she began to long with great intensity for something—anything—to happen. Once something moved in the foot- wide strip of shadow against the house. Jane caught her breath and then saw that It was only a cat, a half-grown kitten rather, beloved of the cook. It came out into the moon- light and walked solemnly the entire length of the terrace with delicately taken steps and a high waving tail. It was as soundless and black as the shadow out of which it had come, and presently it was gone again, and second by second, minute by minute, slow, interminable, the night dropped away. In the hall a clock struck the quarters. The silence, shattered for a moment, closed again. When the rapping came it brought the oddest sense of interruption. Jane sprang to her feet, stood for a mo- ment catching at her self-control, and then went noiselessly to the door. She listened before opening it, and could hear nothing; and, as she listened, the knocking came again, but from behind her. Bewlldered, she edged the door open and looked out. A shaded light burn- ed far away to the left. The long. dim corridor was empty. She shut the door. Some one was where—but where? She turned and stood facing the windows. Up in the far corner a large cupboard filled the angle and blunted it. Jane had hung her serge dress there hours and hours ago. The knocking seemed to come from the cupboard, just where the room w. at its darkest because next the light- ed window. Jane crossed the floor very slow- 1y, put both hands on the cupboard doors, and flung them wide, For a moment everything was quite black, then, with a most unpleasant sud- denness, a narrow white ray cut the dark, and Henry's voice said, “It's only ‘me.” Jane's hand went to her lips, pres: ing them firmly. She would have ad- mitted that this action alone saved her from screaming. After a moment she gave a little gasp, and located Henry, rather Henry's head, which was almost under her feet. In the cupboard floor there was & square black hole, and just above floor-level Henry's face looked up at her, tilted at an odd angle, while his one visible hand manipulated a small electric torch “Wait,” said Jane, in a whisper. She went quickly to the door, lock- ed it, removed the key, and put it in one of the dressing-table drawers. She did not know quite what made her do this, only suddenly when her eves saw Henry her mind had a knockingsome- ENNY N Considering the oriental rug from a merely mercenery point of view, it is a wise purchase.

"then she sat down on the cupboard floor, close to Henry's head, and breathed out: “Henry!—how on earth?" Menry, who apperaed to be stand- ing upon a ladder or something equally vertical, came up a few steps, sat down on the edge of the hole, and switched off his torch. “I had to see you,” he said. was my room in the old days, Tony and 1 found this passage. It leads down to another cupboard in the garden room where they keep the tennis and croquet gear. How are you?—all right?" . “Yes, quite all right.” “That's good. Now which of us is going to talk first?” “I think I had better,” said Jane. “You see, I saw Renata, and she told me things, and I think, If you don’t mind, Henry, that I had better tell you everything that she told me. “Yes, please.” He hesitated. minute, Jane, I just wanted to you don't mind talking to me this, do you? I wouldn't have asked you to if there had been any other way—what I mean to say is—" Jane gave a very small laugh, which was instantly repressed. She reflected that it was pleasanter to suppress a laugh than a scream. “What ou mean to say i there aren't any chaperons in this scene. You needn’t apologize, Henry. Sleuths mnever have chaperon: it's simply not done and, anyh I'm sure vowd make a beautiful one. Shall 1 go on? 1t may be doubted whether Henry really cared about being described as a chaperon His tone was rather dry as he said “Go on, ple As for Jane, “This and who had prodded him on purpose just to see if anything would happen, she certainly felt a slight disappointment, accompanied by A sense of increased respect. “You saw Renata. What did she tell you?" “She told me what she overheard.” said Jane, speaking slowly. “Henry, if 1 tell you what it was, will you promise me not to let any one guess that you know? If they were cer- tain that I knew, I shouldn't be alive tomorrow; and if they thought vou knew the secret, you'd never get back to London alive. “Who is ‘they,’ Jane?" said Henry. “I want to tell you about Renata first. She really did walk in her sleep, you know. She must have waked when she opened the door. She said the first thing she knew was the cold feel of the hall lino- leum under hér feet. The door was open, and she was standing just on| the threshold. There was a screen in front of her, and beyond the screen a man talking. She heard every word he said. and 1 am sure that what she repeated to me was just exactly what she heard. The first words that she caught were ‘for- mula A" Henry gave a violent start. “Good Lord!” he said under his breath. “You're sure?’ ! “Quite. Then he went on, and this is what he said: ‘You all have for- mula “A." You will g0 to your posts and from vour directions you will prepare what is needful according to that formula, carrying out to the last detall the cipher instructions which each of you has received. As soon as the experiments relating to formula “B" are completed, you will receive a summons in code. You will then assemble at the rendezvous given, and formula “B,” with all in- structions for its employment, will be intrusted to you. With formula “A" you have the key. When for- mula “B” is also complete, you will have the lock for that key to fit: then the treasures of the world are vours. The annihilation of civiliza- tion and of the human race is within our grasp. When the key has turned in the lock we only shall be left, and——' Just then, Renata said, some one else cried out. ‘The door! The door!' They pushed the screen away and pulled her in. She nearly fainted. When she revived a Ilttle her father and Mr. Ember were try- ing to find out what she had heard. Fortunately for herself, she told me, at first it was all confusion. The only thing that stood out clearly was that shdut at the end, but afterward, when she was alone, it all came back. She sald it was like a pho- tographic plate developing. hazy at first, and then everything getting clearer and sharper until each detail came out. She repeated the whole thing as if it were a lesson.” “Walt.” said Henry. “My head's going round. I want to sort things out.” Jane waited. She had been pre- pared for Henry to be impressed or incredulous. What took her by sur- prise was the puzzled note in his voice. *Lord, what a mix-up!” she heard him say. Then he addressed her again® “Did you ever play 'Russian Scan- dal’ Jane?" he said. Yes, of course. But if you had heard Renata—the sort of queer me- \chanical way she spoke, exactly like a gramophone reeord—why, the words weren't words she'd have used, and all that about formula ‘A’—do you think that's the sort of thing that a schoolgirl makes up?” “No,” said Henry unexpectedly. “I think it is quite possible that she overheard something about formula ‘A, and I'd give a good deal to know Jjust what she did hear.” “I've told sald Jane. had a photographic memory, and 1 said the whole thing over to myself until T had it by heart. You see, 1 didn’t dare to write it down. “Can you say it again?” said Hen- ry. “I'd like to get it down in black and white, and have a look at it. At present it makes me feel giddy “You mustn’t write it down,” said Jane breathlessly. “Oh, you mustn't, Henry! “It's not safe.” % Henry turned on his torch, propped it against the wall, and produced a notebook and a pencil. The cold, narrow beam ,of 1ight showed his knee, the white paper, a pencil with a silver ring, and Henry's large, brown hand. He has a horribly determined’| hand,” thought Jane. . “Now,” said Henry, “will you start at the beginning and say it all over again, please?" Jane did so meekly, but her in- ward feelings were not meek. Once more she repeated, word for word and sentence for sentence, the some- what flamboyant ‘speech of Number Four. Henry's hand traveled backward and forward in the little lane of light, and, word for word and sen- tence by sentence, he wrote it down. When he had finished, he read over what he had written. If he had not a photographic memory, he was, atany rate, aware that Jane in her repeti- tion had not varied so much 2s a syl- lable from her first statement.
