¥ Batter-of-I'act Mrs. Ticer Bocomes Melodramatic I smiled mechanically at “Bill's" enjoyment of Mrs. Ticer's pumpkin ple,’ the while every bit of mental force 1 possessed was focused upon the next room in which Mrs, Ticer was showing “Ralph” Dackett's suit- case ‘to the government operative Eldridge. Was there anything in the absent man's possessions which would be- tray his claimed connection with our family to Mr. Eldridge? The thought obsessed me. keep the nonchalant appearance nec- essary it 1 did not wish “Bill's" eyes =not 80 observant as Mr, Eldridge's but still keen—to notice my uncasi- ness. When I had replenished his glass of milk, and served him a third helping of the pie, T sank unobtru- sively into a chair behind him grip- ping its arms with my hands when Mrs. Ticer escorted Mr., Eldridge back into her living room. “Nothing hut some collars with Mr. Eldridge said disgustedly as he came In, and the grip of my fingers relaxed. “And they're no help at all,” he continued. “He ‘must_carry his toothbrush and comb with' him, and any papers he has and trust to luck for his clothes."” “He does,” I found myself saying, then panic-stricken, found initiative laundry marks, te go on with “that, do you think?" | as if T had meant *he question from the beginning. Mr. Eldridge did not appear to mnetice my slip, and his answer to the question was hurried and me- chanlcal. “It's what lots of his kind do,” he answered. Then he looked at his watch and frowned. “Of course there's the hundreth thance,” he sald, “that he may come back. “We've got to wait for that. I ‘suppose., This man generally is on time to his meals?” he asked Mrs. ‘ Ticer abruptly. “Oh! yes, he never misses,” she answered, “What time supper?” “Flve o'clock, and it's almost that time now, Ticer and Jerry'll be here before I have thing ready it I don't look smart. Will you excuse me hile T put on the teakettle 'We're going right now,” Mr. El- dridge returned with an imperative glance at “Bill” who was savoring the last morsel of his pie. “I must see Mrs. Underwood before I decide what to do next. Now if either this man or the Chink comes back here, ean you get word to us without rousing their suspicions?” Matter of fact Mrs. Ticer is the last person I should suspect of & leaning toward melodrama but with do you have your LETTER FROM LESLIE PRES- COTT TO THE LITLE MAR- QUISE, care TH JCRET DRAWE It's a long time since T have writ- ten to you, dear confidante of mine, and so many things have happened that I do not know where to begin first. My beautiful old English chest has gome from New York, and T am pro- ceeding to take all the letters I have written you from the safety deposit box and put them in the chest. The anclent lock is the most intricate thing, with bolts and bars and other devices for keeping its contents in- violate, and I am perfectly mad about it. Last night when T had it installed in my bedroom, Jack asked me what I intended to put in the hest, and when I told him, he just looked at me and laughed. By the way, Little Marquise, it was the first time I had seen Jack | smile since we both were rescued from drowning. I was glad to see it, although I got a little cold when he said: “T am going to read all those fan- eiful ravings of yours some day, Les- e dear.” You see I thought of all the things 1 had said about him to you. Unless he could understand me just as you have, it might make a great deal of trouble.

When we' had drawn up to the veranda steps, he sprdng out, gave a hand to me, and with a curt command to “Bill’ to “stick around” he fairly ran up the steps.

The mushroom tree was, you know, a tree in which Chatterer the Red Squirrel was storing up mushrooms to dry that he might have them in the winter. Buster had discovered that tree quite by accident, and he had made up his mind that he would have one grand pfeast of mushrooms the last thing before he went to sleep for the | winfer. He felt quite sure that he would find, fhose mushrooms right there when he went back to get them. He knew that Chatterer would not eat them wuntil winter. They were to be a part of Chatter- er's winter food supply. The first time that Buster hap- pened to be over.near where that tree was grawing, he of cours thought of it.
