Ticer Discovers That Her Pa: ¥y to The Larch- es Has Been Stolen! My mother-in-law, though a mar- tinet in her family, and, as cxpresses it, “a wizard in getting her own way,” is quitk to yield a point gracefully when she faces the tra tional stone wall. The fact that Mrs. Ticer was so ingenuously obtuse to di- her wish to go along with me to The Tarches made it impossible for Mother Graham to insist upon the point without hurting our neighbor's feclings, something which none of us would willingly do. So when Mrs, Ticer sald that she had plenty of time and would love to go with us my mother-in-law smiled graciously at her. “That will be very nice of you. Mrs. Ticer,” she said. “But let us hurry. Mrs. Bickett has to take that afternoon train to the city and my daughter-in-law must hav: consulta- tion with her, before she goes, about her son.” b A queen of an older cra pointinz out the duties of her chief lady-i waiting could not. have been more majestic. I bit my lips to keep back a smile which would have been fatal 1o the peace of the day and was grateful to Mrs. Ticer for her quick answer « which effectively kept Mother Graham's attention riveted vpon her and away from me. “I'm my cloak and hat” my neighbor said, “and they're right nere. I wish you had time to Inok at my fughsia before you go." Mother Graham stiffencd into at- tention. How many buds has it?" she de- manded. I held my breath to hear the an- swer. My mother-in-law, oblivious to our errand and her impaticnce concerning it, was stalki toward the window, filled with blooming house plants, and Mrs, pattering after her. “I don't rightly know,” my neigh- Ticer was bor hesitated. *“I haven't counted them lately.” My mother-in-law snorfed You can’t take much interest in it.” she said. “Now I bud and blossom on mine. were thirty budsand twenty-n Llossoms on it last night when T counted.” Tuchsia Blossoms From my vant point behind em 1 saw my neighbor's face light p for an instant as she shot a triumphant little glance toward the plant. Then the triumph glance gave ¢ to kindly craftiness. “You've got me beat, then,” <aid. “When T last counted, q while ago, 1 had fifty-three buds and blossoms, and I'm sure ther wven't any more come on since.” She was fibbing. I saw that at once — fibbing gracefull and heroi- y—for I knew how much inno- cent pride was hers in her skill flowers—that an old woman might preserve an illusion undisturbed. My she te a To watc It come peace. when all doth ily over on the Green Mcadows, near the edge of Farmer Drown's corn- field, heard Sammy Jay screamirg over in the Green Forest. He flew | up on a fence post, that he might sce better and hear better. “There is trouble of me sort over in the Green Forest,” thou Bob. “That is Sammy Jav's danger ] I have heard it too many times not to recognize it.

It cannot be that there is a hunter with a terrible gun over there, for two-legged hu ers with terrible guns are rot allow- ed in the Green Forest or on the Green Meadows. That is why I feol so safe here.” Yor a while Bob White hearl nothing more. He flew back to the ground and began feeding on seeds, for Bob White is a great destroyer of weed seeds. Of all birds, he has th: honor perhaps of being tne most useful to mankind, and Farmer Brown's Boy know this and they do all they can to protect Bod White and his family Bob had almost forzotten Sammy Jay when once more Samuy's voice: came to him. It was louder than it had been before. By the sound, Bot White knew that Sammy anst very near the edze of the G cst. Bob stopped to listen. Iner he once more flew up to that f{ence post.
