Ned sought his friend Cyrus for consolation, but found that he had suspiciously and mysteriously left town on a fishing trip. He dared not | venture to call at the Allen home | that night, but managed to meet Leila | on the street. | “Oh, if T only had that scapegrace, Cyrus Moore!” cried Lella, when Ned | had narrated his dismal story. | “Why, what has Cyrus got to do | with it?" asked the unsophisticated | Ned. | “He has played one of his practical | jokes on you and I will take delight | in Voxing his ears when he puts in [ an appearance again!" declared the | irate little miss. ‘“About two years ago some jokers got papa to join the ‘Sons of Monus.’” They gave him a terrible initiation and he never | forgives even an allusion to the host.” “I certainly have put my foot in it!"” groaned poor Ned. “You certainly have,” agreed Leila. “What car I do?” “Go and £v papa and explain,” ad- | vised Leila. Somehow Ned could not summon up the couiaze to do this. He passed the Allen home the next eve- ning. There were no lights in the house and he took up his station in the shadow of a big tree. “The family have gone out to some ! neighbor's, 1 suppose,” he reasoned. “I'll stay here and catch the judge as he returns.” It was nearly one-half am hour ! later when Ned pricked up his ears. ! The gate latch of the Allen place clicked and some one came out. He recognized the light overcoat the | Judge wore.
