And in the early, stressful, sometiynes miserable days of my first year of marriage, I had some- times been guilty of wondering wheth- er Jack's quiet dignity and strength would not have heen a hetter anchor to my marriage ship than Dicky's volatile, tempestuous lovableness. I had answered the question long ago decidedly in ‘Dic favor, but Katherine's unconscious attitude brought home to me nost forcibly what marriage with Jack Bickett would have meant.to me. True, I have not Katherine’s high girlish spirits, but T have a stronger will than | she, a more tenacious grip upon “‘my own way,” and-—1 sent up a silent little prayer of thankfulness that Providence had given me Richard Graham instead of Jack Bickett as my life companton. Lillian tumbled Katherine's ba into the tonneau of my car, and mo- tioned Katherine authoritatively into the rear seat. “Undertake It ! “It will save time to tell you what's up while we are going home,” she #aid, “so get in here with me.

For several minutes there was no sound save the steady murmur of Lil- llan’s voice relating the story which 1 knew so well, the story of Khtie's strange terror of the unknown man, of her domination by him, of her queer, ‘furtive searches of the house, and my father's room especially-—all evidently under the man’s directions —and of that final tragic night when we had planned to overhear, by Katie's connivance, her tallk with him, and when the man had been struck by an automobile while cycling to the rendezvous. There was no word of question from Katherine, and I knew that she had CRAMPS, PAINS AND BRCKACHE St. Louis Woman Relieved by Lydia E.

He had some- thing ‘else that gave him much more pleasure than they ever had. He had a new toy. Or, to be exact, he had two new toys. And everywhere he went he carried thém with him. He carried them on his head. And he couldn’t have left them behind in the woods even if he had wanted to— at least not until he ™ had enjoyed them for a whole season. Of course you have, already guessed that he had a pair of horns. They were not very big. But neither was Nimble, for that matter. So they suited him well. A little deer like him would have Jpoked queer wear- ipg great, branching horns such as his father owned. Nimble's horns were merely spikes which struck up out of top of his head in a pert fashion. It was a proud day for him when an old deer spoke to him and called him ‘“young Spike Horn.” About that time the forest folk had begun to speak of him as a “yearling. there was something about Horn"” that sounded much more im- portant, G Somehow there was a new crop of Spike Horns that summer—Nimble's |second summer. And every one of them had been-—like him-——a little spotted fawn the year before. At first Nimble had thought it fun fo use his new horns to jab anybody that happened to be with him. One ay he even stole up behind his own mother and gave her a sharp prod with them. He never did that again. His moth- two the | “Didn't the moon fall into the watex! ke asked. ler quickly taught him better. She wheeled and struck him smartly with her fore feet. _ | “There!” she cried. “That's the | tirst time a child of mine has played that trick on me ... Let it be the last!" And it was. Nimble was very care- ful, after that, to prod only those that didn't mind such pranks. Luckily he soon found that the oth- Spike Horns liked the same sort fun that he did. They were just proud of their new horns as he of his. And (sad to say!) there good deal boasting among them, Each one declared that his own horns were the longest and strongest. . All the Spike Horns, including Nim- ble, were forever butting one another in play. And they bad just discov- ered a new sport when Nimhle met with what he fearcd, for a time, was a terrible accident. Late in the fall, before the deep snows came, both his horns loosened ard dropped off his head. “Oh! Oh!" he cried when he saw what had happened. I'll never be able to take part in another mock battle again!” IFor the Spike Horns had had gay times pretending to tight another in a most savage fashion. After Nimble lost his horns, he carctully avoided all his playmates. He didn't want the other Spike Horns to sce him. At last, to his great dis. may, on he came face o face with one They both tried to dodg But the othér, whose name was Dodger, was not quite quick enough. Before he hid behind a thicket, Nimble saw that he had lost his horns, too! Then Nimble guessed the truth. He it that he had man: of sight of Horn in the horns!
