The Stone threatens evil to all whs have come under Us spell.) CHAPTER VI A Wild Scramble JERKY, the squirrel girl, was so stupid over her music lesson that Miss Jones, the teacher, losing all patience, rapped her smartly over the knuckles with 3 pointer." As Pcgiry and Billy, watching through the window, chuckled at this. Jerky drew the Imagination Stone from her'.pocktt and in a trice the girl at the piano vanished. In Miss Jones' lap was a saucy squirrel. Miss Jones shrieked wiltlly and the squirrel nipped her on the wrist. Outside on the curb. Perky, the squirrel-boy, was tearing his hair over Iiily's arithmetic problems. Suddenly he became a squirrel again. Jerky's first thought had been of Ur companion. Miss Jones rushed for the door and as she threw it open, she sud denly became a parrot. That was Jerky's revenge for the unhappy half hour she had spent at the piano. Now Jerky was satisfied and she rushed for freedom. Fcggy and Billy saw their chance to get the Stone, and darted down to the door. A gust of wind slammed it shut in their faces, with the Stone inside. "Woe! Woe!", croaked the Raven, fluttering out from his hiding place as the two rats discovered him. The rats, angered at his escape, made after Peggy and Billy. They seemed terribly powerful and ferocious. Now began a terrible race, Peggy and Billy on ahead, the rats right after them. Up the tree, out on the swaying branches, along a telephone cable high above the street, across a wire to the roof of the house, over the caveB to a broken attic window, a scamper through the attic only to find the stair door closed, a plunge into a dark, dangerous-loo'king rat hole, a rush between the walls into the cellar, and then up the cellar stairs to the kitchen.

Un der her feet rushed two desperate squirrels and right after them two awful rats. Up went Hilda's feet! Through the air flev potatoes, pan and paring water. Out from behind the stoe darted, Tom. the cat turned into a dog. -y Now the chase led through the house, with rats after squirrels and dog after rats. Teggy led the way through halls and rooms to the spot where the Imagination Stone lay. The rats grabbed the squirrels tails, when suddenly Peggy and Billy be came girl and boy again. The rare tumbled back, Tom made for them and the chasers became chased. I'i'lv opened the door and out they tore. f ollowing them and looking up, Teggy saw that the hawk had just caught the raven, and the eagle had just caught the hawk. In a flash she turned them into Reddy Woodpeck er, Blue Jay and Judge Owl. "Just in time," hooted Judge Owl. "Another second and I'd have eaten Blue Jay up." A shout drew Teggy's attention to the street. The man with the gun was just about to shoot the sup posed mad dog. Instantly Peggy turned the bulldog back into the po liceman. At the same moment she turned Tony into' a monkey again, and Sylvester back into an organ grinder. Friskcr she turned back into a dog and he joined Tom in chasing the rats. Just as the rats were about to be caught, Fcggy turned them hack into the Sharp brothers. The two brothers k'ept running down the street as fast as they could leg it. with the dogs after them, until Peggy turned Tom back into a cat, and then Frisker took after him as eagerly as ever. The pferrot was squawking about , the yard. Peggy, remembering her unprepared piano lesson, was tenfpt cd to let hqr squawk, but the thought seemed n e a n, so she' quickly changed the parrot bacjc.into Miss Jones, and Miss Jones went sailing down the street very indignant in deed. 11 The dazed policeman was looking at the organ-grinder. "1 ought to arrest you for cruelty to that monkey," he said, "but if you'Jl do better I'll let you go this time7 "I give you da monk," said Syl vester.

Looking up, after a vain search for it, Peggy foiid herself alone. -"Gracious, I'm glad I got things straightened out before 1 lost the Imagination Stone," . she sighed. "Wouldn't it -have been awful if I had been obliged to leave every thing topsy-turvy." And Peggy contentedly went back to her lessons.
