CHAPTER XX L
' Mrs. Wren Tries to Help.
"Have you found liiin yet?" Mrs.
Rusty Wren asked Grandfather Mole
. cne day when the old gentleman had
left his dark underground home to
brave the dangers of the garden.
"Found whom?" Grandlhcr Mole
inquired.
Why, your grandson! I saw hint
wandering about the garden a little
while ago. And I supposed of course
that you had "come up to find him." '
"Now, that s strange!" Grand
father Mole exclaimed. "I wasn't
aware one of them had strayed away
from the house. . . . Which of
inv grandchildren was it that you
saw?"
"I don't know them by name,"
Mrs. Wifii replied. "But this was
just a tiny chap."
"Then it must be my little grand
son Moses!" Grandfather Mole cried.
"He's the smallest of the lot. . '.
I must find him at once, before the
cat catches him."
Mrs. Wren saw that Grandfather
Mole was greatly disturbed. And
though she had enough to do good
ness knows! to look after her own
family, she told Grandfather Mole
that she would help him find his
grandchild.
. "That's- kind of you, I'm sure,"
Grandfather Mole 'remarked. "If I
liad your bright eyes I wouldu't need
anybody's help."
"Oh, you're welcome!" Mrs. -Wren
assured, him. "I shouldn't want a
youngster of mine walking about flie
parden alone. I'm glad to dojwhat
3 can. And meanwhile you had bet-t-
- rif r ft,n hV. for there's
iio need of your running any risks.
If I can't find young Moses Mole,
then nobody can."
Grandfather Mole said she was
Very kind and that he, would take her
advice. So he stationed himself bc-
' side the hole through which he had
lately appeared and waited there

She was a quick, spry little body

fore she surprised the object of her
.search in the act of eating a fat grub
N beside a pumpkin.
"Here he is!" Mrs. Wren called to
Grandfather Mole. "I've-found him.
Po you want to come and get him,
.or shall I bring him' to you?"
- "You'd better bring him," Grand-
: father . Mole answered. And any
body could see that he was vastly re
lieved. A little later "Mrs.-Wren called to
him again.
, "What shall I do?" she asked. "He
won't mind me. And he's too heavy
for me to carry."
"That's Moses, without a doubt!"
Grandfather Mole declared. ""Ycsl
If he won't mind, it's certainly my
grandson Moses. He's the. littlest of
the family, and his mother has al
ways spoiled him. . . . I sup
pose" Grandfather Mole added "I
suppose I'll have to go and get him."
"Wait a moment!" Mrs. Wren
suddenly sang out. "There's some
mistake. This little fellow says his
name isn't Moses!"
Well, Grandfather Mole's mouth
fell open, he was so surprised. "Then
what's his name?" he demanded.
"He says it's Mr. Shrew. And, he

If the husband and father enjoys
reading, there might ba a half-hour

Sometimes an hour can be secured

Does a Face in a Mirror Appear
' Crooked to a Person at the Side?
Every photographer knows what
the majority of persons fail to ap
preciate, that the two sides of our
f?ce are distinct and dissimilar, in- J in ft
every
person's face is better than the other,
and it is the posing of the subject
with the "better side" visible that
photographic experts excel.
.- Ordinarily, we notice no difference
whatever. in the two sides of a face,
particularly if it is someone we
know, for then we do not examine
their features as carefully, nor do
they stamp themselves as firmly
upon our mind as if we were mret-
thenv for the fir't tune. Rut
when we see the same face in a mir
ror, the reflection naturally transpos
es the effect. Hie right side of the
face appears to be the left, and vice
versa. As our eye is accustomed to
viewing this face 1 1 Nature made it,
the transposition of the two sides

The first presentation of the return 'engagement will be" on
Thursday evening. There will' be matinees every day following
that evening for the entire seven days with the exception of Sun
day. No matinee of "WAY DOWN EAST" will be given on Sun

Frances Nash's concert for that date. Mr. Griffith's organization
will step aside for that engagement. ..
The management of the 'BRANDEIS THEATER is particu
larly pleased to announce this return engagement of "WAY
DOWN EAST," as there was no possibility of securing another
engagement of this wonderful entertainment otherwise before
next season. "WAY DOWN EAST" goes direct from Omaha to
fill a contracted engagement of lengthy duration in Denver and
then returns to Minneapolis and St. Paul for a return, having pre
vious to, the Omaha engagement been presented in the Twin Cities
for-six weeks to more than "one hundred thousand patrons, and
having turned thousands away. ' . .
The management of the BRANDEIS THEATER deems it
advisable to remind patrons that "WAY DOWN EAST," turned
throngs away last week, and in order to avoid the inconvenience
suffered before, all patrons should secure their seats in advance
as early as possible. Eveiy seat, with the exception of the 2ncl
