The people in the .Borthern part of the city have so many churches, and so many religious minis trations that they do uot fully appre ciate them.

The Quest Anything Mint is homeless nrouscs olio's sympathy and a homeless cow should naturally aharo In this outpour ing of kindly emotion, nut tho night Mint tho McLano'B cow lost her happy homo nobody lu tho summer commun ity sat up nnd wept In tender corumls oration. Just why tho cow should lmvo chos en to wnndcr from tho comfortnhlc, hny stuffed hnrn'townrd dusk when tho McLnncd' man hnd his back turned for a fatnl instant is one of tho mysteries of bovine psychology which nobody enn figure out. Tho cow, Intoxicated by her freedom, wandered fnr down tho Ink shore. After wandering for rt while, however, tho darkness and tho scurrying of smnll unknown nnlmnls In tho underbrush mndo her nervous and she began to look around for her warm nnd cozy barn. In something like a panic nho lum bered nlong through tho trees until filio saw n light. "Aha!" said tho cow, "homo at Inst." Tho light shone from the cottngo oc cupied by Miss Atkinson, a. maiden ot n consldernblo number of yenrs, who was entertaining nt the moment three other staid and elderly women nt bridge Just ns ono of tho threo had said disgustedly that she made It spades Miss Atkinson, who was facing the porch, gave n bloodcurdling shriek nnd her enrds flew nil over the room. "A man!" she hissed. "There was a mnn peering In through tho porch pcrecn door! He dleappeured when I Jumped!" Her guests tipped 'over the card ta ble In arising hastily. If there wero prowlers nt this quiet and safe rcaort they were of' the indignant opinion that something ought to he done about it! Ono of the bravest of tho four ven tured out to tho porch and in a qua voting voice demanded to know who wns Micro, while the others support ed her with the carving knife and the broom. Nothing answered from tho silence, which made It all the worse. The guests put Miss Atkinson to bed with the hot water bag and the smell ing salts and locked every window in the cottngo. Then, shivering with fright, the three hold hands, and bolt ed for the hotel. It was a little, later that the Hundy cottngo was upset. Mrs. Bundy had put the children to bed and was crocheting while her guest, Mrs. HuN ton, wns rending aloud a particularly gruesome detective story. Suddenly Mrs. Bundy mndo a startled clutch at! Mrs. Hulton's wrist and said: "Lls-s-s-ten!" Mrs. Hulton heard It, too. "Th-th-there must be two of 'em!" stain mercd Mrs. Hulton. "I can hear four f-f-feet Just as plain!" Thoro certainly wero several differ ent footsteps outside tho cottage slow, careful footsteps. "I Just know something awful would happen when Charley weut bnck to Chicago yesterday!" she gasped. , Mrs. Hulton said wildly: ' "Q-g-gct tho g-g'-ggun!" Mrs. Hulton's grent-grnndfather had fought In n war, so she know Imme diately tho best method of defense. Holding tho family revolver at arm's, length nnd with her head turned tho other way, Mrs. Bundy sat down again nnd listened. There wns nothing to be heard. They pacscd tho rest of tho night on guard. Farther down tho lako shore, on tho rustic scat facing the moon, Laura Spllger and her young man sat talk lng. Their nbsorptlon In each other wns go groat that they heard nothing until something strange wrb thrust over Laura's left shoulder. Young Burninstor made n wild but futile grab ns sho leaped In tho air. Landing on tho extreme edge of tho slippery terrace, she tumbled down In to tho lapping waters with a gurgling splash. Then as young Burmaster, too, sensed tho prcsonco of something weird and. lncxpllcab'.o ho folt his tscalp twitch In freezing horror, nnd leaped after Laura. Hand In hand they nroso, dripping, nnd stood affright ed In two feet ot water at tho shore's edge. , From tho Spllger cottngo camo ques tioning rumblings.

Gottlng no answer, bo eauso tho two in tho lnke wero still paralyzed vocally, ho came forth to, Investigate "What do you want?" he roared at something creeping by. "I'll tench you' to prowl around my houso, consanv you!" Presently Micro was a spite-, ful pop of tho little Spllger boy's alr-j Bun. Then there was silence. Nothing happened. The Spllgers1 nnd young Burmaster sat up very late) discussing tho mystery. . At an impromptu masB meeting the next morning the cottagers voted to, upend SCO a month for a watchman.. Then they took naps all the rest ofl the day to make up for their wakefuli night. But early the same morning a weary) and homesick cow had broken Into a gallop as she spied the McLanes' barn.' and In two minutes more she was munching her feed and switching flies,' nnd appeared to be wondering what nil the excitement In the neighbor-1 hood was about, anyway. ?wffMufMmWf'vmvmf, m Perfect In Fit WORK Wooltex Coats and Suits. r Wooltex Garments fleaer Disappoint The quality of a suit or coat doesn't exist in fit, style, fabric or workmanship alone, but is the result of a combination of perfection in all four of .these points.
