It was plainly to be seen that Uncle Isaac Runny Intended to stay with i lie Rabbit family in their new borne, lie had crept Into the house In the hollow tree before they arrived there, ■ "to welcome them.” he had said. And ; i hen, ns soon as Mr. and Mrs. Rabbit and their son little Jimmy had come in and dropped their bundles upon the floor, t'ncle Isaac beamed upon them and made a few remarks. t hope.” he said, "you'll enjoy your new home here. Tou ought to sleep dry and warm Inside this tree. It's a fine, big place and there'll always he plenty of room for company. I spent six months with my fourth cousins, when they lived here. Many a banquet did we have right here in this room. My fourth cousin’s wife is a famous eobk—hut no better than \ ou, Mrs. Rabbit, I’m sure. Ahem! J>id you bring anything to eat in those big bundles?” ‘I brought an apple In mine,” said Jimmy Rabbit, who failed to notice that his mother was shaking her head ni him and that his father was wink ing at him. "An apple!” rrled Uncle Isaac Bunny. "I haven't tasted on# since last full. Do let me see it!” Jimmy Rabbit pulled nut his apple with an air of great pride. Uncle Isanr quickly seized It. Xlis e\es glistened greedily ns he held it to his twitching nose. Mnim! How good it smells he ex claimed. "We'll put this apple tip here nit this shelf, where we can all sre li It's so handsome ’tvcottld he a pity to eat It." "I was going to eat It now,” said Jimmy Rabbit wistfully. "Oh. no! Oh. no!" cried Uncle Isaac Runny. "You mustn’t. It would spoil your appetite for dinner. I'm sure | your mother has lots of goodies lit | that, big bundle there, hasn't she'.’"' "Come here to nte. .llmnty!” said Mrs. Rabbit hurriedly. She wanted to whisper something to hint—something 1 hat she didn’t care to have Uncle Isaac hear, "Hasn't she?” Uncle Isaac persisted. "Yes. she has." said Jimmy Rabbit "Ah! I knew it." Uncle Isaac replied with a smile. "Something told me that we'd soon sit down to one of the fin est banquets that this old house ever •aw.” Mrs. Rabbit no longer tried lo whis per to Jimmy. It was too late for that. But she did her best to catch her husband's eye. Mr. Rabbits gaze, however, wandered everywhere except In his wife's direction. To tell the truth, he began to see that getting Uncle Isaac out of their new home would be no easy matter. And helng • kind-hearted person. Mr. Rabbit couldn't forget that there was a great •nowstorm raging outside: and Uncle Isaac was not as voung as he was emce. Even if he was a lazy, good for-nothing old scamp, it seemed a pity not to let him stay and enjoy *1 least one good ineal w ith them— A ft their lirst meal in their new home. A little later Mr. Rabbit explained al lthis to his wife—out of Uncle Isaac's hearing. "We're lucky to find such a fine home." Mr. Rabbit reminded her. "And you know It was Uncle Isaac who told me about the place. It won't hurt us to give him one square meal." "I shan't mind if it stops at once.” said Mrs. Rabbit. "Rut as for feed 05 Mmmf How ^ood it smells’" h«, exclaimed. ing him three times a day for the rest of the winter—well, I'd rather move right away and live somewhere else.” ''Now. don't worry!" said Mr. Rab bit cheerfully. "After we've had din ner I'll drop a hint or two. And I'm sure Uncle Isaac will go along about his business." "His business." said Mrs. Rabbit, "Is to stay here until spring." "Nonsense!" her husband retorted, and he gave Mrs. Rabit a pat on the back. He hnd found that pats on the back often calmed her when noth ing else would. An then they all sat down to din ner.

(Copyright 1922) Why Is Claire Interested in Tom Chester? I listened Intently for Dicky’s reply to Claire Foster’s gibing remark about his indolent appearance. And when it came there was a note In his voice which told me that he was as sur prised as I at the grotesque sight she presented with her face covered with cold cream, and her hair rolled up tightly in numerous kid curlers. “Thanks,” he drawled. “Chivalry prevents my saying what it is of which or from which or to which you remind me.” She giggled appreciatively, as If he had just paid her a delightful compli ment. "Aren’t I the limit?” she carolled. “But just think how bee-yew-tl-ful I’ll bo tomorrow when I get dolled up!” “That’s something to look forward to. I’ll admit,” he returned gallantly, and the sound of his rustling news paper and the tap of her mules going down the corridor told me the collo quy was«pnded. I hurried my undressing, and was In one of the twin beds when Claire re turned. I felt a curious disinclina tion to talk to her, and felt, distinct relief when she disposed of mo with the perfunctory inquiry: "Sleepy?" "Why? Why? Why” "Dead.” I returned laconically. "So am I,” she said. "Xighty nlght.” ' But. her regular, healthy, young breathing told me that she slept long before X found forgetfulness in slum ber. And I wakened early', unre freshed, after a series of dreams, through which Claire Poster In her grotesque mask pirouetted before me. while I, clutching ineffectually at her, kept repeating the query: "Why? Why? Why?” X rose, noiselessly, as T thought, and dressed with infinite quiet so ns not to disturb her. But she opened her eyes wide while T was coiling my hair, and sprang out of bed. "You should have called me.” she said, and hustled through her dress ing as if something vital depended upon her hurry. An Ingenuous Offer. ghe wiped the cold cream from her fine, put ft boudoir cap on top of the ikid curlers, though it did not cover ' them, fastened a rather soiled wrap 1 per untidily with a couple of brooches ' and was at my side when X opened the door. "i’ll Just wash up and he with you In the kitchen In ft minute.” she promised, and X wondered if she actu 1 ally meant to appear at breakfast | in so unfldy a rig. That she did mean exactly that. T ! soon saw, hut T forgot my distaste at her action In acute worry over the carelessness she exhibited in handling * ihe exquisite hplongings of Mrs. Bliss. Just in the nick of time I prevent ed her from setting a burning hot | platter upon the polished surface of I the antique mahogany table, and all ! my watchfulness was not able to pre sent the breaking of one of the etched EDDIE’S FRIENDS Opening Conversation.

Fortunately It was not a piece of old glass, but I foresaw a long weary and expensive shopping trip in trying to match it. I was therefore in no very equable humor when Claire looked up from the toast she was watching to ask, with seeming irrele vance: “What's ever become of Tom Ches ter, Madge?" A swift vision of the young soldier stretched upon a bed of suffering in our own house rose before my eyes, but, of course, X could tell her noth ing of that, when Dicky had as yet no knowledge of the events which had brought Torn Chester to the shelter of his roof. T constrained my voice to nonchalance: “He's In Sag Harbor, I believe ” “Is be still ns Indifferent as ever to all feminine charms save your own?'' “What do you mean?" I Hashed angrily, then with an uneasy fear that Dicky might have awakened, I added quickly: "Don’t be ridiculous!" *‘I'm not,” she returned imperturb ably. "But I sure would like to know, for I’ll tell the w’orld he’s about the niftiest lad I’ve ever seen. Even In the days w-hen Herbie's gloomy ro mantic eyes intrigued my youthful Imagination, I had a weather-eye out for that lad. But would he look at me? He would not, and anybody with half an eye could see the reason why. But. surely, you don't intend to keep him dangling in your train forever. ■Til tell you what I'll do," she ti. 1. claimed, “I'll huy you a five-pound box of bonbons if you'll disenchant him somehow, and let mo have a chance at, him.” Uncle Sam Says Fruit and Vegetable Gardens. It will soon be time to begin to plan next year’s fruit and vegetable garden. In that connection, this booklet which Is issued by tlie Fed eral Bureau of Plant Industry will prove valuable. A home garden is incomplete unless It includes some of the more perma pent vegetables and small fruits in addition to the regular annual vege tables that are usually planted. A bed of asparagus, several hills of rhubarb, some horse-radish, berries and grapes are valuable additions to the home garden. Full cutural directions to gether with suggestions for the choice of permanent fruits and vegetables are contained in this booklet.
