Robrer's agents were crestfallen,

resignedly.
"Ford said be could show receipts

Parents' Problems
What course would be taken when
a little girl of 8 brings a playmate
home to luncheon without first ask
ing her mother's permission?
that a child should bring her.
playmate home to luncheon, without
t;rst asking permission, shows spoil
taneous hospitality, pride in licr, home
and an attitude toward it as. beini?
f.s a matter of course, friendly to her
' friends all excellent qualities to be
fostered. Put the prohibition the
ether , way; let the. child go to no
other house without your permis
sion, but encourage in every way her
bringing her friends to her home. In
'ho other way can you better judge
the Suitability qr value of the .friend
ships than by observing the other
child w:hen under your roof or in
ymfr. playground. To .check, the
child's instinctive confidence .that he
may share his friendships with his
family would be a disastrous mistake.

Jack mopped at the bottom Mcp

the bundle under the porch.
He straightened tip, dusted off Ivs
hands, lit a cigaret and came bound

of great innocence on his face.
Jill slipped into the front room as
Jack's key clicked.
Hello there, sweetheart, he
cried. "Here'sour wandering boy.
Where is the most perfect wifey in
the world?"
That little person was in his arms
in a jiffy and they looked- at each
other more lovingly than ever. But
Jill was mystified about the bundle.
Jack, what on earth did you
bring home in that package and hide
under the porch?" Jill finally de
manded, as they were finishing supper.
Oh. shucks, said Jack. I wanted
to surprise you. Well, I'll show you

He brought it in. and brushing
off the mud from the outer wrap

Jack's eyes sparkled.

It was a shame to spoil his enthu

she turned them over slowly.

CHAPTER XVII
A Game Bird. .
Mr, Grouse moved back and forth
upon his log in the clearing in the
woods. And casting a withering
glance at Turkey Proudfoot, he said,
"It's plain that you don't know what
17. ' i '
"Made in Lowell, Mass."
"Great Scott, I've been buncoed
again and I can never find that man
again. He told me these things were
smuggled and that's why he sold
the lot for $10. He wouldn't give
me his address."
"There, there, honey don't wor
ry. I can contribute them to 'the
charity bazaan were going ( to have
at the club and they can' be raf
fled off'. '
Jack was so unhappy, ' however,
that Jill determined to calm him.
"Here, darling," she said, slipping
out to the hall closet and back. "I
bought theseso as to have them
handy for you when-we had some
company. You smoke them now."
Jack- beheld- a highly decorated
box of cigars. Every cigar was or
nately belted with a paper band of
many colors.' He smelled them and
looked uneasily toward the win
dows. , .
"They're genuine Havana cigars,
darling. That's what the grocery
man told me this afternoon.'
Jack lighted one, and it crumbled
in his hands.
He tried another, whfch was equal
ly dry.
- The third afforded him at least
one long inhalation, and he coughed
violently.
"Well, dear, these are not froi.i
Havana they were made on the
Bowery. But although they are not
imported they're antiques all right.
We'll save these' until our relatives
come visiting." .
Jill's lip quivered in disappoint
ment. . ; . ' .
"But honev, .darling lets compro
mise," said Jack, putting " his arm
about her. "If you'll let me buy my
smokes, I'll promise never to pur
chase linens for you. Is it a bar
gain?' "A bargain, tfear? Why you don't

gobbled antfrilg. .
a game bird is. Men and boys,
too come into the woods with guns
to. hunt us. And we make game of
them by rising swiftly with a loud
whir and flying off before they have
time to shoot us."
Turkey Proudfoot gaped at Mr.
Grouse. -
"Don't they ever hit you?" he fal
tered. . , .
"They've never shot me," said Mr.
Groise. "Oncea buter knocked
out one ot my tail feathers. iJut
that was only an accident."
1 shouldn t care to . be a game
bird," Turkey Proudfoot remarked
"I'm sure it's much safer living at
the farmyard.
Mr. Grouse gave him an odd look.
One winter when food was scarce
in the woods he had flown 'down' to
the farmyard. . And he remembered
seeing turkey feathers scattered about
the chopping block near the wood
pile. ' : "
"How do yon . usually spend in
holidays ?". he askfid. .
"Last Fourth of July I' went .up in
the haymow and kept put of sight
all day," said lurkey 'J'roudtoot.- 1
don't like firecrackers" : '; ..
Mr. Grouse nodded his head.'
"I don't blame ;you for.. that," he
observed. "r irecrackers ; sound too
much like guns. iv. . '.But I wasn't
thinking ofrthe Fourth of 'July "the
went on,.: "When I asked how you
spent the holiday? i.I was :, thinking
more ot those--to come. JNow,

that?" , . .
When' he mentioned .Thanksgiving
day Turkey Proudfoot gave a sudden
start. . '-v.'..
"For goodness sake, don'tvspeak of
that now!" he cried. "I came to the
woods to enjoy myself. .- And now
you're trying to spoil my good
time." - , , " :"' :
Mr. Grouse could, see that Turkey
Proudfoot was angry. And being
rather peppery- himself,- he , was
tempted to say something sharp
something about axes, which are al
ways sharp unless they're dull. , But
Mr. Grouse-managed to control his
temper. After4 all, he . thought,, it
was , no wonder that -.Turkey Proud
foot didn't ' want .ro- hear , about
