I thougtt there was some one at the door, for the chief's ears are as wide as ever. Why, my boy, you seem to be all alone this time and I didn't expect any one this rainy night, for the Thunder- bird has spilt a whole lot of water out of the lake on his back as we Indians used to say when it was raining hard, Sit right down there on that old panther skin by the fire and you'll }soon be dry and warm. I'm mighty you came to see the chief tonight, for he was just thinking of the long ago when he was a boy—when there was one in the tribe that none of the others seemed to understand. He was just as fine and brave as any of |them, but, somehow, he appeared to be different from all of the other boys. He hardly ever joined in the games and sports, and he came to believe that the other fellows didn’t like him. He was alone most of the time, and be- cause of that they gave him a nickname. They called him Pag®- pago. That means One-one in our language—just because he was by himself so much. One day One-one happened to come along in the woods where the others were playing. They had just found a hornet’s nest and were stirring it up by shooting their, arrows into it. Those hor- nets went at One-one furiously. But iImstead of running away, which would cause the other fel~ lows to laugh at him, he calmly wrapped his robe around him and walked slowly away, and they didn't laugh. He went away off down the creek where he got a handful of clay, plastered it over the lumps the hornets had made on his face and sat down to wait They Are Happy Tho Very Rich pt wag Inongpdaage fir myceed rvgh gg wneeli nt ad Psa we lrg sand when they are at the seaside, tho backyard soll and street dust, the forbidden them.

CHIEF TAHAN Shows Boys How One-One Built a Wickiup of the things which the Medicine bites. The boy was pretty lonesome as he sat there watching an eagle floating around in the sky, and how he did wish that he was a man so that he could wear an eagle feather war bonnet—like the chief’ | Suddenly there was a roll of thun- der in the West. coming and {t would catch him |before he got home, He jumped up land ran into the bush |hustled around until couple of bushes a little taller |than himself and about four feet apart. He took hold of first one bush then the other near their tops, bent them till their tops met. Then he twisted the small branches of. the bushes together until they held. With his knife he cut half a dozen bushes about the size of the others, sharpened the butt ends, stuck them into the ground so that with the other two they formed a circle about four feet across, bent them over like the other two, one after another and bound all of their tops together. That was the framework of his wickiup. Working like a beaver he cut small bushes, piled them on the top and around the sides of the frame, spread his robe over it all as far as it would go, tied the cor- ners down to the poles and crawled inside before the hallstones began to beat down. He had seen his mother do that ever since he could remember and, of course, knew just how. But I've often thought that if One-one had lived here and belonged to a troop of Boy Scouts, he wouldn't have been lonely, and he wouldn't have made a wickiup —except just for fun, This is how One-one began to build the forest shelter which kept the hailstones off. A Suspicious Friend BY THORNTON W. BURGESS (Copyright, 1919, by T. W. Burgess) 66QYHUT, chut!* said Chut-Chut the Chat, as Peter Rabbit turned toward him. Here was another member of the Warbler family whom Peter could recognize on sight. There was no mistaking him for any of his relatives. You see, he is much the largest of the family, being as big as some of the members of the Spar- row family. His back is dark olive- green, but his throat and breast are a beautiful, bright yellow. Below his breast he is all white and above each eye is a broad white line and below each fs a little white line. To have seen him when Peter turned toward him, you might have thought that he suspected Peter of some harm. He acted that way. If Peter hadn’t known him so well, he might have been offended. But Peter knew that there is no one among his feathered friends more cautious than Chut-Chut. He never takes anything for granted, He is a great It was a beautiful song, amd Peter hastened to tell him s0. believer in safety first, and so ap- pears to be always on the watch for danger, even to the extent of sus- pecting his very best friends. He |certainly is suspicious, is Chut-Chut the Chat. When he had decided in his own mind that there was no danger, Chut- Chut came out for a little gossip. But, like all the rest of the Warblers, he couldn't keep still. Right in the middle of the story of his travels in far-away Mexico, where he had spent the winter, he flew to the top of a tree and began to sing. Then, with his legs dangling and his taf! wag- ging up and down in the funniest way, he flew out into the air and there continued his song as he slow- ly dropped down among tho bushes again, It was a beautiful song, and Peter hastened to tell him £0, ChutChut was pleased, He showed it by giving a little concert all by himself for Peter’s benefit, It seemed to Peter that never had he heard such a variety of whistles and calls and songs as came from that yellow throat. When it was over, ChutChut abruptly sald good-bye and disappeared. Peter could hear his sharp “Chut, chut,” as he hunted worms further along among the bushes. “I wonder,” said Peter, speaking aloud, “where Chut-Chut builds his I wonder if he builds it on the jectared low-throat, who all the time had been flitting about close at hand. “He doesn’t, but I do, He puta his nest near the ground, however, usu- ally within two or three feet. He likes to build fin bushes or briars. I like to hide my nest under a bush or a clump of weeds. Have you seen my cousin, Sprite the Pareula Warbler, yet?” Next story: A Home fn a Bunch of Moss, AVERS ROADS NEARLY BROKE Will Have to Quit Soon, Magnate Declares WASHINGTON, July 25.—Tack of funds and the high cost of operation is creating the possibility that some railway lines may not be able to con- tinue in existence much longer.

They were watching a tiny red ant tugging a grain of wheat across the barn floor. “That reminds me,” said grandpa, “of an experience I had with ants when I was about your age. It was a bitter day in December. My fa- ther had gone after a load of wood and had left just two chunks, one small one and one great big one, The little one burned out and my mother and J, after a great deal of trouble, got the big one into the stove, but we couldn't get the door shut. “Just then a neighbor stopped to get my mother to go see his sick wife. My baby sister wad sound asleep in the cradle, so my mother decided to leave me at home with her, and promised to be home in an hour. “TI got my favorite fairy story and was wishing I lived in those good old times, when there were giants to fight. The'fire snapped and sizzled, and I looked up to see that the floor was simply alive with huge, black, fuzzy timber ants, I forgot about wanting to fight giants and started to run, then I thought of my baby sister, “1 knew right away whero the ants came from. The big old chunk had been hollow and an entire ant colony had taken it for their winter quar- ters. When they got hot they came swarming out of the end that stuck out of the door. So, tho my legs were shaky, I grabbed up the big dustpan and the broom and began sweeping them up and emptying them back into the stove. They crawled up my hands and legs and stung me, and one even got on my face and stung my lip, but I kept on till the last ant was siz zling on the fire, “When my mother came home, I was pretty well swelled up, but she praised and petted me till I felt as if I had killed a dozen giants.” —HELEN CARPENTER MOORE.
