A!i; e Wierand Marion i;r keley professed trout They went off by themselves for whole days, and were real experts, brimjiiig home baskets of the speckled darlings, which would have done credit to experienced anglers. Then there was tlcur little Annie Tiukhaia, who read cloud in a voice like a trained brooklet, and was never weary of reading. AUoethrr there was no l.vk of oeeupations, in spite of an occasional malcontent sisjh at thought of what might have been had fate been a little kirmler. "We are all nice, you know," remark ed Esther White, in an exasperated moment "very nice, indeed ; but after all. it's all one taste. Onejdoes like something different at times. It id as tonishing what a very little ham it takes to flavor whole mountains of bread and butter." 'Oh, Easie! .Shocking!" But some of us privatuly agreed with her. One brilliant morning in lato August we, the uuattached eight, agreed to lay aside all private pursuits, and com bine for a picnic. Now well I remem ber it all the hot climb up hill, and the delightful spice smell of the pine woods as we passed into their shadow! It seemed a different zone, all coolness and fragrance, with winds making vi brant murmurs overhead, and under foot melodious rustlings, unlike other wood rustlings; echoes, perhaps, of that secret, half revealed and half with held, which pine woods hold, and which to impressionable people, is such per petual fascination. It Tva infinitely refreshing after the outside, heat and ;lare, and we Hung ourselves on the cushiony needles with sighs of pleas ure and relief. "What a dear place this is!" said Al ice. I am never tired of it." "Whv don't we come here ofteuer, rverv day?" asked Kosa May, gushingly- "Well, I can hardly say. There are other things to be considered. Initios, sketching, fur example. There is noth ing to sketch here, you know." "And trout." put in one of the front ing girls, "tie-re's nothing to catch here, you know." "I'm not so sum of that," retorted Alice.' "Piny Brook is pretty swift, and tumbles a good deal. I confess; but there are pools below which might hold trout. I'm going to take a look at them by and by." "It must take a trout of stout con stitution to swim in Piny brook." ob served Carpathia. "I should think he'd be bruised black and blue in live min utes." "So he would in the rapids; bat be low it is not so bad. I never heard of any there, to be sure, but there may be." "'Much hangeth on a maybe,'" quot ed Sarah Stanley. Here I lost the thread of the conver sation. The pine needles were clastic, and soft as a mattrass. I was weary with the walk and the heat, the light fanning wind lulled me unconsciously, and I fell asleep. Certain soft touches aroused me, and a tickling in my ear. I sleepiiy turned v.:A half sat up, but a hand pressed me down, and a laughing voice said: "Oh, lie .till a little longer. We've made you into a log such a lovely log! Do keep stiil. You'll spoil all if you wve." "But what is this in my ear'" "Oh, nothing but a toad stool. There, I've moved it, and I'll litt this lichen off your eye, so that you can take a look at yourself. You can't think how beautiful you are." The witches had covered me all over with adust-coTered shawl, and had cov ered that with sods and mosses and strips of bark to simulate a half-decayed trunk, scattering pine needier, over all, and sticking into the interstices, ferns, lichens and fungi, till, as Amy said, it did look precisely like a big. I,astly they threw down a shawl in careless folds, set a lunch basket on my client, and stood off to see the effect. Tv Inch they declared to be "wonderful." "So human being would guess," said Esther. "You'd impose on Leather-Stocking himself. Oh, girls do call Alice and Marian. They must be sat isfied before this about those wretched trout. Don't breathe a word, but just ask them to sit down on the log and make themselves comfortable." "On me! Thank you," said I, speak ing as well as I could through a mouth ful of lichens. "Oh, they shan't really sit down. Lie still quite still, dear" Dolly. Don't move an inch, please don't; promise that you won't. It will be such fun to cheat Alice." "Very well. I won't. But be quick. I'm comfortable enough now, but all this blanket shawl and bark may grow unpleasantly warm. I never realized before just how Daphne felt in the lau rel." "(lood-by Daphne. flood-by Queen Log. We'll be back soon." With ring ing laughter off went the girls, Esther lingering to give a touch to the lichen over my left eye. I smiled at myself in this odd position, but even as I smil ed I dropped to sleep again. The day was irresistablv drowsy and there was something-delightful in this wood slinn oer, w hich even in deepest unconscious ness I never lost hold of. The hist thing I saw, as my eyelids fell, was a broad ray of sun striking a half-open i parcel of forks and spoons which lay i in the grass. Mrs. I'endexter's proper- ty these, and careless enough of the I girls to leave them thus. But what j did it signify? Xo spot on earth could be safer than these summer woods un- ! der the shadow of the New Hampshire hills. Those were my thoughts as I fell asleep. I was roused by sound of voices, which even my locked senses recognized as unfamiliar. I opened my eyes. Two men w-pro sitting on the ground close to me, but half turned away. They were shabbily clad; one in a velveteen coat ar.d rough corduroy trousers; the other, whose clothes were dark, had a rtd handkerchief tied round his neck. This man had a thick beard, and wild, long hair veiling a pair of savage gypsy eyes. But it was the oth er face that frigntened me most. It was a smug shaven face, but with an evil, cruel, furtive look, w hich I do not know how to describe. Taint with -.uiicen tear, l uv quite stilL It seem- ' ed the only thingtodo. But, oh, where were the girls? 1 thought; what wotiL.I happen if they came back? "(live us that there baskei off the log!" were the first .words heard. It was the velveteen man who spoke and the other reached out his hand and lift ed the basket fiom its place close to my chin. I trembled lest its removal had made me visible; but the girls had ar ranged too artistically for that, and tho men seemed to suspect nothing. It took only a moment to empty the bask et which kind Mrs. IVndexter had ta ken so much time to till. "Xot a bad find," said the smug man turning over the cold mutton and hard eggs, and speaking with his mouth full. "Vittle up, partner. Mayn't have another chance Lord knows when." "Tart nor" accepted the invitation cor dially. Our luncheon disappeared dow n his throat in large morsels. "Hallo! here is a go!" cried the smug man, makinga sudden dive at the parcel of spoons and forks. He bit one of the spoons with his teeth, rapidly counted and dropped them into his pocket, the other man looking on. "Ileal V" isked he of the red neck-cloth. "No mistake. Eight of each. That's twenty apiece. Stow away fast or some one'll bo a-coming." 1 hadn't supposed that even a wolf could "stow" faster, but at thin warning the motion ox the jaw was accelerated. As the men ate, they talked. Their voices were smoth ered but I caught now and then a sen tence. "Dog? Darn the dog! Easv silence him." "Yes, but " Then I lost the con text. "You're sure asto the blunt ?" "Saw it handed over seventeen hun dred and odd in bills. Took it home with him? Why, oi course, you fool. These farmer fellows don't hang to barks. I tell you he wants it handy to lift his mortgage, next week. Sure to be called for. Them Elkinses is al ways on time. Verry sharp gentlemen, Elkinses are." "Stash your gab." said the gypsy. "Folks coming. Ott's the word." The men jumped to their feet, listen ed a second. One of them snatched up the shawl which lay over the supposed log, the other crammed the fragments of the feast into his pocket, and they were gone, the gypsy's foot just grazing my head as he went. I heard the girls voices drawing nearer, but the long tension of fear had left me so faint and powerless that I could not stir, not ev en when the girls came in sight and stood close beside me. ".My! isn't it warm?" cried Esther. "Alice, -you look half baked. Sit down and rest. Here is a convenient old log. She caught sight of an empty basket the men had Hung aside, and stopped short, with her mouth open. "Yes," said Alice innocently. "1 fan cy wo are all ready for luncheon. But where is the luncheon? And where is Dolly ?" At this moment I saw Marian mak ing preparations to sit down on me. Self preservation g ive me strength to stir, to roll over. The bark and ferns Hew in al! directions. Marian shiiek ed; but her arrangements for seating herself had gone too far to be affected by this sudden phenomenon. She came down heavily, and she and I and the shawls and the ferns, fungi ami moss es became complicated into a confused and undistinguishable heap. This the girls considered the best joke possible. With shoutsof laughter they disentangled and picked us up. But at sight of my face there were ex clamations: "Why, Queen Log. what is the mat ter? Are you hurt? You are as pale as a sheet. You look as if you had seen a ghost. Don't stare so Dolly. Do speak. What is it?" I tried to speak, but, instead, burst into a fit or nervous crying. The girls, frightened and perplexed, thronged about me. In the mid t of their rapid questions an awe-.-Hruck voice was heard saying: "Where are tho spoons? I put them just here. I am sure I did. And here is tho very nankin thev were in." "Oh." I sobbed, "those men took them a wav." "Men! What men?" Then it all came out. and the circle of pale faces and wide open eyes which attended my somewhat incoherent ex planation struck me as so funny that I went to the other extreme of feeling, and, before I knew it, was laughing as hard as I cried. "And you lay still and never moved?" gasped Kosa. "How brave! I never could have done that. I should have given one scream, and then fainted away." "That would have been truly judi cious,"' remarked Esther, urvlv: '.but ! The girls went and wailed, but in vain. "Don't be silly," said Esther. "Of ' course somebody must go." j "Well, I do admire your courage," i said Mrs. Pen-lxter, "and there's this about it; there ain't no real dan ger. They're always scared at day light" speaking oi' tin; genus bur- ! giar as of a wolf. "You won't see your men again, Mi. Dolly, I prom ise you. If I wasn't sure of that, I wouldn't let you go nohow." I-'ortilicd witli this we set off, con cealing our inward tremors as best we might. The read seemed long, but at last we came to a pretty brown cottage, with a little lawn, flower beds and an air of taste and refinement new to us in that region. A hand some 8un!.;inied young man, who was cutting grass with a hand mowing machine, came forward to meet us and mi-ed his straw hat with the un mistakable air of a gentleman. Es ther explained our errand. Mr. Den nett ii.-.ten i;ig intently, never taking his eyes oT her fact as she spoke. "I am lwobably the prison meant," he said. "At least I have the sum alluded to in my house to pay a debt which falls due. next week!" He paused and thought for a moment si lently. "I wonder yon were not afraid to drive over to this ionely place," he said, smiiing. 'We were a little l-.it, perhaps," fal tered I. "Yet you came. How very good of von ! I'oii must let me drive you back." "Oh, pray don't leave your house unguarded! 'i hose men may come, you know." "Oh, there is no danger now. Fore-warned is fore armed." He called a man, gave some order?, went into the Louse a moment, and we were ;!'. Dear mo, low safe we felt ali at once! The dark nooks had io-t their terrors, and the return drive was delightful.

Why did we come? Oh, how horrid it is not to have any man to take care of you !" Iler alarm infected the boldest of us, and I regret to say our progress homeward partook of the nature of a stampede. Mrs. IVndexter, whowas rolling out tea-biscuit in the buttery, was taken all aback by our sudden appearance. "Sakes aiive ! I want to know! This does beat all!'' were her remarks during our recital.
