(Continued.)
MEXT morning Baree found many
crawfish along the creek, and he
feasted on their succulent flesh until
he felt that ho would never be hungry
again. Nothing had tasted quite so
good since he had enten the partridge
of which he V 1 robbed Sekoosew the
rminc.
In the middle of the afternoon
Baree came Into a part of the forettt
that was very quiet . and peaceful.
he creek had deepened, in places
its banks swept out until they formed
small ponds. Twice he made consid
erable detours to get around these
ponds, lie traveled very quietly,
listening and watching. Not since
the ill-fated day he hod left the old
windfall had he felt quite so much I
at home as now. It seemed to him
that ot lost he was treading country
which he knew, and where he would j
find friends. Perhaps this was an-
other miracle-mystery of instinct of
nature. For he was In old Beaver
tooth's domain. It was here that
his father and mother had hunted in
the days before he was born. It was
not far from here that Kazan and
Benver-tooth had fought that mighty
duel under the water from whnh
Kazan had escaped with his life with
out another breath to lose.
Baree would never know these
things. He would never know that
ho was traveling over old trails. But
somethinc deep in him gripped at him
strangely. He sniffed the air, as if
in it he found the scent of familiar
things. It was only a fnlnt breath
an Indefinable promise that brought
him to the point of a mysterious an
ticipation. There hnd been few changes in
Beaver-tooth's colony since the days
of his feud with Kazan and the ot
ters. Old Beaver-tooth was still old
er. He was fatter. Ho slept a great
deal, and perhaps he was less cau
tious. He was dozing on the great
mnd-and-brushwood dam of which he
had been etiRineer-in-chief when Ba
ree come out softly on a hinh bank
thirty or forty feet away. Ho noise
Ichs hnd Baree been that none of the
beavers hod seen or heard him. He
squinted himself flat on his belly,
hidden behind a tuft of grass, and
with eager interest watched every
movement. Braver-tooth was rous
ing himself. Ho stood on his short
lfRs for a moment; then he tilted
himself up on his broad, flat tail like
a soMier at attention, and with n
sudden whistle dived Into the pond
with a great splash.
In another moment It seemed to
Bnrco that the pond wos alive with
beavers. Heads and bodies appeared
and disappeared, rushing this way
ami that through the water in a
manner that amazed and puzzled him.
The heavers lost no time in getting
at their labor, and Baree watched
and listened without so much as rust
Una a blade of the graft in which
he was concealed. He was trying to
understand. Ho was striving to place
these curious and comfortable-look
ing creatures In his knowledge of
thiiiRs. They did not alarm him; he
frit no uneasiness nt their number or
nixe. His stillness was not the quiet
nes of discretion, but rather of I
st rnnge and growing desire to get
better acquainted with this curious
four-lretred brotherhood of the ponn.
Already thev hod begun to make the
hi forest less lonely for him. And
then, close under him not more than
ten feet from where he lay he saw-
something that almost gave voice to
the puppvish longing for companion-
shin that was In him.
Iown there, on a clean strip of the
shore that rose out of the soft mud
of the pond, waddled fnt little l'misk
and three of his playmates. Vmisk
was Just, about Boree's age, perhaps
a week or two younger. But he was
fullv as heavy, and almost as wide
as lie was long.
And then, of a sudden, some one
1 saw Borce, It was a big beaver
j swimn-ing down the pond with a sap
ling timb.-r for the new dam that was
under way. Instantly he loosed h
hold and faced the shore. And then
like the report of a rifle, therr came
the crack of his big flat tail on the
water the beavers signal that on
quiet night can be heard half a mile
way.
"Hanger," it warned. "Hnnger
danger danger!"
Scarcely had the signal gone forth
when tails were cracking in nil di
rections in the pond, in the hidden
canals, fn the thick willowa and al
ders. To Umiak and his companions
they said:
"Run (or your lives!'
Baree stood rigid and motionless
now. In amazement he watched the
four little beavers plunge into the
pond and disappear. He heard the
sounds of other and heavier bodies
striking the water. And then there
followed a strange ond disquieting
silence. Softly Baree whined, and
his whine was almost a sobbing cry.
Why hnd T'misk and his little mates
run away from him? What had he
done that they didn't want to make
friends with him? A great loneliness
swept over him a loneliness greater
even than that of his first night away
from his molher. The last of the mn
faded out of the" sky as be stood
there. Darker shadows crept over !
the pond. He looked into the forest,;
where night wna gathering and with
another whining cry he slunk hack-
into it. He had not found friendship.
and his heart was very and.
r or two or three days Baree a ex
cursions after food took him farther
and farther away from the pond. Rut
each afternoon he returned to it
until tho third day, when he discov
ered a new creek, and Wakayoo. The
creek was fully two miles back in the
forest. Thia wan a different sort
of stream. It sang merrily over a
gravelly bed and between chasm walls
of split rock. It formed deep pools
and foaming eddies, and where Baree
first struck it, the air trembled with
the distant thunder of n waterfall.
It was much pleasanter than the dark
and silent beaver stream. It seemed
possessed of life, and the rush and
tumult of it the song and thunder of
the water gave to Baree entirely
new aensations. He made hi way
along it slowly and cautiously, and
it was because of bis slowness and
caution that he enme suddenly ond
unobserved upon Wakayoo. the big
black bear, hard at work fishing.

Cynthia Grey Says: i
)KAR MISS OBEY: My daughter
has told he that she is about to
become a mother. The most terrible
part of the affnir is that the man in
the ease is a good-for-nothing. 1
would almost rather see my girl in
her coffin than married to him. Don't
you think the only thing for her to
do is to marry him and then leave him
after the child is born? Heartsisk.
No, I don't. The child needsUts
father .Just as it doe its mother.
And it may he the making of
your daughter's future husband
to have a child to support.
Dear Miss Grey: I om a married
man. I work hard at my job. and I
get my own breakfaat, pack my lunch
and do my breakfast d'shes while my
j wife sleeps every morning. Then at
night, when I'm tired, she expects ine
J to do the, supper dishes, too. Don't
you agree with me that it's her place
to do tbem? J. N.
I certainly do Lgree w'th you.
And I think, besides, that you
- are spoiling your w.i'e by getting
your own breakfast, en-., in the
morn'ug. Only one bus bund in
about ten thouund ever dues
this. You might tell her so.
Dear Miss Grey: I have a great
many boy friends, but none of them
is in love w.th me. Alt the other
girls I know get on occasional kiss,
at least. I am popular and that's the
end of it. Why do you think this is
so? Km my I-.011. S . t
It's just possible that jou are
the nice, sens hie sort of girl that
' the boys respect. And I can't
imagine why you mourn because .
you aren't petted. It's no com
pliment (o a girl to kiss her, you
know, unless there's real love
behind the kiss.

Dear Miss (Jrey: What is the color
used for a girl baby, and what for a
boy? Mother.
Pole pink for a boy, and baby-

On Gardening
JOUE grass seed to the tenure inch
is wasted probably ihfln'any other
seed planted because of the impos
sible conditions which tho owner of
a lawn forces upon the seed and then
expects it to grow. It is ti common
sight to nee a home owmr srHttcr.ng
seed broadcast and lavishly with the
idea that it needs resettling. Very
likely it docs, but this method will do
little good. '
Tho seed is strewn upon the hard
earth and will be washed into win
rows by the heavy rains of spring. It
has no attachment to the soil and the
first hot sun will shrivel the tiny
seedlings which have been induced to
germinate by the moisture.
If the lawn is thin, and usually
there are thin spMs each spring, rake
the thin spits vigorously with a gar
den rake unt I the soil is stirred and
then sow the seed, mixing it with half
its bulk of sand, -fur ordinary giass
seed is sown so thickly thiit it smoth
ers itself in germ.nating. If the rnk
ing ia too arduous, after sow.ng the
seed give a light top dressing of soil,
sand, shredded cow manure or pulver
ized sheep manure. If none of these
methods is used tho most effective of
all, rolling the seed into the noil with
a lawn roller, will accomplish the ef
fect. If the grass seed is to germinate
and take hold and be of any value in
re-establishing and thickening the
stund, it must be brought into c!oe
contact with the soil ho that the tiny
rootlet can strike into the earth ond
not lie upon it to die.
Now is the time to start leveling
the lawn. In spite of the best efforts
lownB a year old, through uneven set
tling of the soil, seem bound to de
velop dent and hollows here and
there. Fill these in with good earth,
scatter gross seed over the new
earth and stamp firm. A bumpy lawn
is an eyesore nnd all the mowing in
the world will not restore its appear
ance. The surface of the soil must be
lev) to produce a velvety gretnswitrd.
