I'd Love to!” In my work with them before, I had held the position of a humble assist- ant and had the common sense to know that in many things that would still be my status. But at this mo- ment I was unqualifiedly one of them, on equal terms of achievement, and the knowledge thrilled me. “You may think this is all, but it isn’t,” Allen Drake struck in, when I had finished. *Mrs. Graham modest- ly tries to assure you that this was a flash in a pan born of her knowledge of those old-time records. But I'm here to say that she's there four ways from the jack when it comes to a head for cod And they have to be born that way. Come, Mrs. Graham, you promiscl me a slant at that ‘childish nonsensical code’ you devised for your own amusement. Trot it out, please.” Without a word I pushed over to him the code I had mentioned, with the key written out. He studied it carefully for a minute or two, then beckoned my father and Lillian to him. They looked over his shoulder, while apparently oblivious to my presence, he pointed out the different phases of it. Then he waved his hand toward me with a self involuntary chuckle, of a teacher exhibiting a prize pupil “Didn’t I tell you?" he asked tri- umphantly. *“She’s a natural code-ist.

Cuffy Bear had wandered all ths way down to the foot of the hill be- low Blue Mountain, There he spied a funny old dame who lived in an underground house all by herself, The neighbors knew her as Aunt Polly Woodchuck. And, if anybody had an ache or a pain, there was no one that could cure it as quickly as she could. Now, Aunt Polly never : dreamed that there was a young cub watch- ing her, whila she hobbled about just outside the hole that served her for a doorway. She nibbled at a clover-top. And when she had finished it she moved on to eat another, and an- other and another, until at last she found herself staring straight into Cuffy Bear's open mouth. With a squeak of dismay she turned and fled. In a twinkling she had whisked out of sight into the tunnel that led to her chamber be- neath the sod, leaving Cuffy to stand and stare at the hole into which she had vanished. much money in it, although the pe- wards are sometlnxes quite satisfac- |tory, but—" “Oh!
