"They ain't many queens would a done it." , "Oh. I don't', know." T. Paer philoso phised, 'Jrou can't tell much., difference between -a queen 'nd a kitchen mechanic if you dress 'em both in dish aprons." "That -ain't, o," s Ma objected. ; "A woman's . grot to have brains to be a queervnd she don't much to wash dishes 'nd mop floors." "Then," TV- Paer answered, vnf- some of the history I've read about's true they's been, a lot of dishwashers wore crowns." "-. . "I ain't , denying that?" Ma retorted, "but they.'s- been a lot of good ditch diggers . spoiled by putting 'em oh thrones" ,t - - Sure,'' T. Paer admitted, ",'nd. I've saw some queens with ' brooms for a scepter- in my time." - . "I've seen you looking at 'em' Ma obv served -caustically.' "1 don't know any- oooy more ooserving'n" you are in some things." "I didn't start out to do any brag gin',"- T. Paer grinned. ."I was just thinkln' what, a big difference it mad because a Spanish queen instead of a China one got stuck on Chris 'nd bought : nis boat."" "X don't see as It could- of made much difference." Ma said doubtfully; "unless he'd a got one of them junk ships they have over in China Instead of one of them Spanish gallons like he did get." "That's Just it." T. Paer insisted earn estly. "If he'd got' a junk he'd got it in China Instead of over In Spain 'nd that'd sure raised hell with New York." "I don't like that language," 4 Ma snapped. "If your can't talk decent you need'nt talk at all" "I didn't mean to," T. Paer apologized, "but when I get to thinkln' of what -a boob of a queen picker Chris was I kinda get excited." . Farmer Brown' By Thornton W. Bsrgens . For ervrythinc that 'ft really nice You'll find that you mnat pay s price. ' Knner Brown's Boy-. - FARMER BROWN'S BOY. perched in a treetop, was so interested watching - the Bear family in the berry patch that " he forgot all about the two pails of ber ris he had left there the day before . when , those Bears .had frightened him tway. They didn't enter his head until ntji nonceu inai . rsusier Dear whs very . near the bush Under which one of those 1 pails had been hidden. ;' "Gracious." exclaimed Farmer Brown's Boy. "I hope that black rascal doesn't .find those berries t" But Buster did. He poked his head - under that bush, then abruptly backed away. It was plain that he was suspi cious. He walked around that bush two . or three times, and then sat up and . ulared at it. He looked carefully in every direction. He stretched his nose out. and tested the air. Then once more : he walked around that bush, only to sit up aain in the same place.. Once, long ago, Buster Bear found a pail of ber ries and It got him into a great deal of trouble. The handle of the pail taught over his head and frightened him half to death. He was suspicious of this pall. But the temptation of those berries " was too much for him. - He went near enough to reach out and touch the pail .with the claws of one paw. Then he did the same thing with the other j paw. ' Nothing happened. He cocked his head con one side and studied the pail. Then ' he tried touching it again. This time : he pushed the pall over and jumped bacrc V with a funny little growl. But the pall Vjy there on its side motionless and "erned harmless. Buster ventured 1 to 1 eat some of the berries that had rolled - out. The pall remained harmless. Bus ter gained courage. He fairly gobbled up those berries. There were- no sticks and leaves to get in his mouth, aa there Chamber the master writer of rt mance, in his latest grfeat story , tells . how Jove, strange and mysterious, came to the heart of a," beautiful and lonesome girl, beset with dangers' in the depth of the wilder ness.

Paer exclaimed, ."if Chris'd coaxed a few Jade necklace off n some Chinee charmer out :. lot out on the east side d been worth norn a million dollars." - " 1 . . "Dream on,"' Ma smiled, "."you'll wake op with a headache sooner or later." ."Well," T. Paer argued, "when Chris got his boat started he Just headed straight west, didn't her' . ', "Yes. ; Ma answered. The - couldn't of gone east without putting his ship on a wagon." - "That's Just It," T. Paer agreed, - 'nd if .he'd started from China he couldn't oft gone anyway but east-'nd cross the ocean, could he?" .J.... v ."NO," Ma admitted, "but what' of thatr "What of itr T. Paer repeated. ."Lota of It. If he bad Portland'd be New York now, 'nd .Washington'd be where Salem is, 'nd . they'd have ' the Palm Beach hotel down at Shoreacres 'nd in stead of it beLn Plymouth Rock in all the histories it'd be Rooster Rock 'nd we'd eat duck on Thanksgivtn' day in stead of turkey." "My sakes." Ma exclaimed, "I had'nt thought of it that way." "Of course you hadn't," T. Paer re torted, "but if s a cinch I'm right just the same."- ' . "I wouldn't be surprised," Ma. conced ed. "I've thought lots of times, it was too bad our ancestors didn't know about our part of the country first" "They'd been nothin' to it," T. Paer enthused. "If Chris'd only had the right hunch they'd be givln monkey dinners over to our Newport Instead of the other one, 'nd Coney laland'd be at Sea side nd they'd be pushin' them grown up- baby carriages along a board walk over to Tillamook. Columbus sure was a nut like they Bald he was when it come to drawin' to the right queen." "I wonder," Ma mused thoughtfully, "what'd been where New York is now if he had a done it" "Woods," T. Paer . answered. "If Chris'd discovered us first I don't think anybody'd ever been stingy enough to want to take that part of the country away from the Indians."" "I believe you're right," Ma said. "They wouldn't be much reason to want to live there if they'd move Coney Island away." s" Boy's Berries was when he stripped the berries from the bushes. In leas time than it takes fo tell it all those berries that had rolled out of the pall were -in Buster Bear's stomach. Then he hesitated. He wanted the ber ries in the pail, but he wasn't quite cer tain of the harmleasness of tlfat pail. Very gingerly he put in a paw and scooped out more berries. When these He finished bjf' sittiug . up with the pail In one, arm while he tried to scoop out the "last of the berries with the"oUcr paw. ' were gone he tried again. After the third time he made up his mind that that par ticular pail was harmless, and he tin- ished by sitting up with-the pall held In one arm while he tried to scoop out the last of the berries with the other JFarmer Brown's r Boy,' watching frorn the treetop, saw. all this. When Buster ifrst found the .pail of berries Farmer .Brown's Boy opened his mouth to yell at him. -But he closed it again without a ' sound. "What are .a' few quarts of berries to the fun of seeing what he will do?" muttered he. "This is better than a circus.- Besides, there - is : that other pailful of berries. I'm willing to divide with Buster Bear." So he 'said nothing and was glad of it, for he, almost laughed aloud as he watched Buster Bear's antics. Buster didn't make much of a success in scoop ing the last of the berries from the pail as he held it with; one arm around It, and lie began to lose patience. Then the pail slipped from, his grasp and spilled the last of .the-berries on the ground. Buster licked these up and then looked in the pail. Of course, it was empty. This seemd to anger him.; He appeared to think that' somehow it! was cheating him. j Anyway, he suddenly struck it with a big paw and sent it flying. It landed -with a clatter close to Mrs. Bear and- frightened her so that she jumped and ran a short distance. It was all very funny and quite -. worth the loss of those berries. At least Farmer Brown's Bay thought so, and they were his ber ries. ; : (Copyright, 1921. hr T. Vf. Burreaa) v The next story J Th Twins Have Great Fun." , -.
