for a stoiy to come In."
Just at that moment Nannie's voice come

her laugh, ho told this story
"Tonight t will tell yon about Sir nnd
Sirs Potato Bug and their three children.
Faith llopx and charily."
Jiint about the time the Uidv Hug ar
rived Sli Potato Hug found thut his family
had eaten their home up. and he had to get
nnother for them You see, potato bugs live
on the leaves of potato vines, and when
they get hungrv. then thev eat their homo
up. So when Sir. Potato Hug found thnt
they had eaten tbeii whole house up, In
cluding the backdoor steps, he was veiy
busy looking around for some other large,
iulcv leaf on which to make his home.
"Sly doi good -wife' said he, 'I hear
from tho Cricket that there Is a lovely
potato patch over near where the Ijidy
Hug has her bungalow, and I think we will
move over there'
"'All light." said his good wire, 'but I
think you ought to get a hhkorv leaf to
move us on You remember the lust time
vou moved us the chUdrmi ttte up the potutu
leaf bcfoie they got to their pew home'
'l guess you aio right.' said her hu
bntul: 'yoit.wnlt here and I will go und get
a hickory leaf, and then I will cany you
all sufelv to your new home'
"So i ff went the Potulo Una and soon
returned with a largo hickory luf Ills
wiro was getting the children reudy and
when he called to her she had their things
on. and they were ready to go with him
"Over the lumps of earth ho pulled them,
the sun gettlnif higher all tho time ami the
day getting hotter, until Anally he arrived
nt their new home, end tho children and
their mother jumped oft the leaf
Mr Potato Bug sat down to rest, and no
sooner bad he begun to get cool than he
looked tip und Saw Faith, Hope and charity
were eating up the front porch of their new
home
'Here' Hero" he cried 'Do not start
eating the flout porch ; Iwgin with the ImiJ,

So the dear children scurried to the

A whiff of steam hot, damp, terrlfvlng
pissed across his face, in which Ihe veins
weie starling from the nilv skin His eves,

knew Ihe pit was verv close now ; dully he
heard its sleadv bubbling.
"If I go. ho goes, too', the engineer
swore tu himself "Hell never h.ne

"Whv not liy the Fitsu-da. Stern?" Iho

And. suddenly loosening his hands rrom
the chief's throat, ho clenched his right list,
hard as steel
A second later the "klllltiB-blow" had
fall-sn on the barbarian's nook. Just whero
tho swelling proiubernnco behind tho ear
