FATE AT WORK
The house was unlocked but de
sorted. Georgie went up to her
room.
She was evidently expected, for
the bed was made, and the window
was wide open.
She went to the window and
leaned out, sniffing the fresh air.
A red rose hung close to the
Bill, and she carefully picked it and
placed it In a tumbler of water on
the dressing table.
It made her think of Nicholas
Boyd and of her roses he had
thrown into the sea. Where was he
now? she wondered.

THE REWARD NOTICE

"First of all," said WUIy Nilly, "I
will put some grease on the bite
that Woodchuck gave you. Leave
-him alone and
he's all right, but
don't bother about
him a erain."
Alt Willy Nilly's
animal friends
were gathered
once more in

meeting. They

"We Khrmld

Willy Nilly, as
"he made Rip rest
on an old cushion, "but It may help
us more than anything. I have of
fered a reward and pasted the no
tices on the trees around here."
All the animals looked at one of
the notices in front of the shop
which read: "Anyone giving infor
mation leading to the discovery of
the theif who stole my silver will be
ivcn a handsome reward. Signed

"The silver wasn't so valuable,"
Willy Nilly said, "but I have owned
It for years and think so much of

$ict the we simply must let thcives
jniow that they have to move away
from Puddle Muddle."
They all went off once more on'
searching parties, looking for clues.
When they met at Willy Nilly's
that evening they discovered that
something had been written below
the reward offer, which was pasted
on the bush right in front of the
shop. It was in Crow language and
had been printed with a twig dip-

afterwards,- and many, many miles
away.
Georgie was glad that the rain
which had greeted her at South
hampton had .cleared off and left
sunshine, and at the same time she
found herself wondering how she
had managed to pass her. days be
fore she went, away.
They had never dragged. She had
always found something to do, and
somewhere to go, even if it was only
down to the Boar's Head to talk to
Mrs. Spears and Trouve. The vicar
had once told her in his mildly dis
approving, manner that young ladies
ought not to go to the Boar's .Head
and talk to , Mrs. Spears.
"Whom-can I talk to then?" Geor
gie had asked; in her direct fashion.
He had looked a little nonplussed,
knowing that owing to her uncle's
fondness . for whiskey, she . was
rather ostracized by the so-called
well-connected families round about
It wasn't even as if Uncle Ed
ward got respectably drunk; he did
it in all sons of places, and In all
sorts of company.
Mrs. Spears was a great friend of
his, and he had even been known
to drink beer with Mr. Scarlet.
Georgie had thought it all rather
funny before she went away; some
thing in her liked to shock the re
spectability of the neighborhood,
but today she was seeing things
from a different perspective.
Uncle Edward was very much oi
a revolutionary.
He hated conventionality and said
that people were only respectable
because they hadn't got the "guts"
to be anything else.
"Guts" was a favorite word of
his.
Outside, the iron gate slammed,
then the front door slammed, then
there was the sound of a heavy
walking stick being put into the
rack in the wall and then her
uncle's voice, loud and threatening
as usual.
"Damn It all, can't anyone move
these boxes? Do you want me to
break my neck?"
Georgie flew downstairs, her eyes
shining.
"Here I am," she said.
Edward Bancroft stood in the
hall; a big man with a body that
must once have been fine and up
right, but which had now grown a
little fat and coarse; a red face
which must once have been hand
some, and rough grey hair that
looked as if It had not seen a brush
for years.
"Do you want me to break my
neck?" he demanded again. "The
hall isn't the place for boxes. Have
"em moved."
He went on into his study, and
Georgie followed.
"It's been lovely" she said, her
enthusiasm as yet undamped.
"Whats been lovely?" he de
manded .making at once for the
whiskey bottle.
"Everything," Georgie said. "New
York, the boat, everything."
"New York's a hell upon earth,"
was his uncompromising answer.
"How's your mother looking?"
Beautiful."
Edward Bancroft said "Bah!" and
It was more expressive than if he
had used a string of words.
Georgie realized that it would be
wiser not to press the subject fur
ther, and to change the conversa
tion she asked after her uncle's
cronies.
"How's is everybody? It seems
ages since I went away."
"Everything's just the same, ex
cept that Mrs. Spears."
Edward Bancroft drank half a
tumbler of whiskey and set the
glass down with a bang.
"Mrs. spears has gone out of her
mind, I should think. Taken a
lodgera damned play-actor fel
low; all American hat and cheap
swank."
"American hat!" Georgie breathed
quickly.
"American hat," her uncle said

Moses couldn't he take himself and
his ugly face somewhere else, in
stead of coming here spoiling the
village."
"Ugly face!" Georgie whispered.
"Got a great scar all down one
side," her uncle said grimly. "Mrs
Spears calls him a hero. Damned
fine hero, I should sayl Got it in
a drunken brawl if the truth's
known fighting over some woman
as rotten as himself."
Georgie came a step nearer, her
eyes were like stars.
"What's bis name?" she asked.
"What's his name, Uncle Edward?"
He looked at her and scowled,
"What do you want to know for?
I expect his names Smith or Jones,
or something but he colls him

to be locked up for taking a good
old name like that." He made a

I know his sort 'Quiet' indeed!
Where are you going?" he de

door.
She looked back at him. "I'm go

said reminded me that I hadn't had

But though she went Into the
