They told no one but Dennis and Grannie Malone, and they both promised they would never, never tell. Mr. McQueen worked hard early and late over his turnips and cab bages and potatoes, and Larry and Eileen helped by feeding the pig and chickens, and driving the cows along the roadsides, where they could get fresh sweet grass to eat. One evening Mr. McQueen said to his wife: "Rent-day comes soon, and next week will be the Fair." Larry and Eileen heard him say it. They looked at each other and then Eileen went to her Father and said: "Dada, will you take Larry and me to the Fair with you? We want to sell our pig." "You sell your pig!" cried Mr. McQueen. "You mean you wantto sell it yourselves?" "You can help us," Eileen an swered, "but it's our pig and we want to sell it, don't we, Larry?" Larry nodded his head up and down very hard with his mouth shut tight. He was so afraid the Secret would jump out of it! "Well, I never heard the likes of that!" said McQueen. He slapped his knee and laughed. "We've got it all planned," said Eileen She was almost ready.' to cry because her Father laughed at her. "We've fed the pig and fed her, until she's so fat she can hardly walk, and we are going to wash her clean, and have a ribbon to tie on her ear. Diddy will look so fine and stylish, I'm sure some one will want to buy her." Mrs. McQueen was Just setting Liberty Bonds Cashed American State Bank, 18th and Farnam Sts. AJv.

Hugh Grantland stepped across the threshold of the car drawing room and held out his hand in awk ward greeting. As I took it 1 ielt a renewal of the conviction I al ready held concerning the man, and that was his absolute dependable ness and resourcefulness in any emergency. My worry began to slip from my shoulders before he had uttered a word.' "Good morning," I said with prompt perfunctoriness, for I saw that his natural diffidence was very much in evidence. "Pardon me," he replied hastily, clumsily, with no return of my greet ing, "but I I could not help over hearing Miss Brown's remark about starving before the diner should be put on. I have made inquiries and nave found that the diner cannot possibly be attached before 1 1 there is very serious engine trouble so I am taking the liberty of placing my hamper at your service. I was afraid of this, and so had Hastings prepare a few things. I I always travel prepared." There was something in his almost ludicrous hesitation winch betrayed to me the fact that he was uttering a kindly falsehood with the intention of putting me at my ease. That Hugh Grantland was the last man in the world to consider his own comfort when traveling was sure, and I knew as well as if he had told me that he had prepared the hamper of food esoecially fon the rest of us. The Major's Proviso. His next words, however, rather modified my surprise. "Please remember," he said, and there was a firm, almost stern note in his voice, "that the hamper is in your hands absolutely. I wish you to provide for your own wants first. I I shall be very disappointed if your usual generosity leads you to disregard my wishes in this respect." There was the same note in his voice, the same look in hi's eyes would bring forth such 'a sacrifice -of his fastidiousness. I had a mental picture, also, of away a pall of milk. She stopped with the pan in her hand. "Leave them go," she said. Mr. McQueen smoked a while in silence. At last he said: "It's your own pig ,and I suppose you can go, but you'll have a long day of it." The longer the better," said the Twins. All that week they carried acorns and turnip-tops, and everything they could find that was good for pigs to eat, and fed them to Diddy, and she got fatter than ever. The day before the Fair, thev took the scrubbing pail and the broom and 'some water, and scrubbed her until she was all pink and clean. Then they put her in a clean place for the flight, and went to bed early so they would be ready to get up in the morning. When the first cock crowed, be fcre daylight the next morning; Eileen's eyes popped wide open in the dark. The cock crowed again. Cocka-adoodle-doo ! "Wake up, Larry darling," cried Eileen from her bed. "The morn is upon us, and we are not ready for the Fair." V (Rights reserved by Houghton Mifflin Co.) Tomorrow Irish Twins and Notched Stick. Italy Has Decided to Give Up Avlona to Albanians Rome, July 28. Italy has decided to abandon Avlona to the Albani ans, according to reports printed in the Giornale d'ltalia and the Cor riere d'ltalia. The newspapers say an Italo-Albanian agreement has virtually been reached on a basis in volving, in addition to the abandon ment or Avola by the Italians, the immediate cessation of hostilities, exchange of prisoners, the garri soning by Italy of certain points constituting the defense of Avlorra in the event of its being attacked by sea, and recognition by Italy of the independence of Albania according to the frontier? established by the conference of London in 1913.

I could not keep my cheeks from flushing hotly, and an embarrassed realization rushed over me of the possible unpleasantness which might result if Dicky should walk down the aisle. I never thought I told myself grimly that I should long for the companionship of Rita Brown, but I found myself wishing that she would hurry back from her visit to Mrs. Durkee's quarters. There was but one possible way, however, to treat Maj. Grantland's offer, and glad, indeed, was I that my baby's predicament gave me the excuse for accepting the gift which would otherwise have embarrassed me. "You cannot imagine, Maj. Grant land," I said warmly, "from what a perplexing situation your generous offer has rescued me. In some man ner the grip with the baby's food has been left behind, and he is be ginning to cry for his breakfast. Do you happen to have any milk in your hamper?" An Outstretched Hand. "Two traveling bottles," he an swered promptly, "one hot and one cold," and I had another glimpse of the thoughtful care he had taken of me and mine. "I will bring the hamper here directly." He stalked down the aisle to his own berth, summoned the porter, and ' that functionary, from some mysterious quarter produced and bore into my stateroom an unusual ly large hamper, much more clumsy to carry than a suitcase.
