I saw that they held a querulous gleam and yguessed that back of the gibe was a tiny stab of resentment at Lillian's manner, which some men found a bit too dictatorial for them. That Lil- lian’s keen perceptions must have guessed his feeling, T was sure, but she was too game a mental sportsman either to betray her knowledge or to vield a point. Her wide grin at him was as impish as the glint in his own eyes, and her voice was clear, 1. cisive. “Yes, 1 do and Allan, dear, forget to wash vour ears.” Her tone was perfect. T havel heard harassed mothers of small boys use exactly the same worried inflec- tion and words.

ME TALES Frammen Aegurindd T&IJ G4REDDY WOODPECKE VARTHUR SCOTT BAILEY A SLY TRICK. This was the truth of the matter 0ld Mr. Crow was iealous because he couldn’t join Reddy Woodpecker's new club, The Redcaps. For days the old gentleman could speak of nothing else. He went grumbling and eneer- ing up and down Pleasant Valley, stopping to talk with anybody he hap- pened to see It must he confessed that the neighbors found his ill hu- 1or very tiresome. nwhile Reddy Woodpecker's club grew in numbers daily. It made Mr. Crow snort when anybody told him that The Redcaps had another new member, Then all at once Mr, Crow's manner nged. He hecame quite sprightly and even winked an eye and cracked a joke now and then. His neighbors wondered what had happened to him. They soon found out. For Mr. Crow announced that he had discovered a new member for Reddy Woodpecker's club. Strange to say, the old gentle- man seemed to take great pride in kelping The Redcaps. T'm going to take my find to the meeting of the club thie afternoon,’ Crow to!d everybody. “But you're not a member. You can't go to a meeting,” his friends ob- jected “Can't T ‘The air is free. 1 please,” So that afternoon Mr. Crow flew jown to the lower end of the meadow, where The Redcaps were gathering. He took a friend with him, whom he left hidden in some reeds at the edge of the swamp To Reddy Woodpecker 5 ' said Mr. Crow wisely. I can go anywhere Mr. Crow than amusement. But his laugh rang out heartily and he brought up his hand in a burlesqued salute “I cry quits,” he said. *“Oh, Chief!™ addressing my father affectionately with the appellation he generally gives him, ‘“‘we're under marching orders. Mrs. Underwood has decreed that we g0 to our room and primp for din- ner. Can you come, now?"” “Of course.” My father moved pick up one of the bags, but Drake forestalled him, picked up the two traveling bags and a couple of brief cases ,with no apparent effort and bowed to me. “If you'll tell me in which direc- tion I'm to mach”—he said, smi “Just follow me,” T answered, sta ing up the stairs. My father had lagged a step hind, in answer to some query from my mother-in-law, and no ear but mine heard Mr. Drake's low answer to my direction. “To heaven or the other place— whichever is your destination.” 1 glmced over my shoulder and shoulder and to be- WILL ANSWER ANY WOMAN WHO WRITES Woman Restored to Health byLydia E.

New York, June 3.—Francis Klux- en 34, seventeen year old Madison, N. J., youth, was indicted Morristown for the murder Lawrence, the 11 year old girl whose bedy was found in the Kiuxen woods {Oct. 6 last. The Morris county grand turned a sealed indictment at 6 o'clock and an hour later Kluxen was| arrested and taken to the county jail. When the body of the girl first was discovered the woods, after she had been brutally murdered, Kluxen was arrested, but was released. Frank Jancarek then was charged with the crime, but was acquitted. Attorney General Thomas F. Mc- in iCran, who prosecuted Jancarek, yes- terday told Supreme Court Justice Charles W. Parker he was sailing for Furope June 10 and asked to be excused from prosecuting Kluxen. He also requested that Prosecutor John M. Mills be excused, because he had b a witness in the Jancarek case. ® Justice Parker said he would take the request under advisement. Tt is probable he will appoint a special prosecutor within a few days. Justice Parker said at his home last night: “The special prosecuting attor- ney will he named when we can find a good man" Little Janet Lawrence not only had been attacked but her body had been terribly mutilated.

Cincinnati, June 3.—Possibility of the use of a writ of injunction in an effort to hold up the wage reductions decreed by the railroad labor board will be one of the subjects discussed at the conference to be held by ex- ecutives of railroad brotherhoods and organizations in Cincinnati next week it was reported in local railroad labor circles. Should it be the opinion of legal advisors of the brotherhoods that there are grounds for asking such a proceeding it would be an al- ternative to a strike vote, it was said. Railroad men e3id that if the Penn- sylvania railroad could hold up even the announcement of the decision of the board by an appeal to the courts, as happened iA the case involving the legality of a ballot for the election of a workers committee to confer on rules and weorking conditions, then it was declared the same would hold in any activity of the board. However, it was sald there are cer- tain labor men who frown on the uee of the writ of injunction on be- half of labor. They take the posi- tion that since organized labor has 8o frequently declaimed against the injunction it would weaken their po- sition to now ask to use it. OFFERED PRESIDENT'S JOB.
