Where she attain iiicpIh Hllm Jaekpoi).
At a danoo she mootH Hurry KdvvnrdN,
an old admirer. Uncle Ucorgo hovers
near, keeping guard.
AND HKKIil IT CONTINUES
A ND Uncle George stepped quickly
" forward to Intercept the approach
ing Kenneth Harrison. Jc held out his
hand, smiling.
"Hello, Keuueth. Nice of you
rome over to ilslt an Old tramp." He
toftk Kenneth's arm. "Ustcn there's
nomcthlnit I've been wnutlni; to tell
jou. Jut step over here for a minute."
Uul Uncle George's utloniplod inter .
Tentlo'n met with instant failure. 'Not I
now, Uncle George" here in his' own I
world every one knew Uncle George, I
and knew him by no other name. Ken
neth freed himoelf mid turned quickly i
upon Harry. ,
"What's this liieau, lMwardsV" he
said sharply.
'S'hat'u this mtnnV" Hurry repent-
ed, glarins bclligcrcntl). There, vvus u
moment's pause, with the two men fao-
ln'g each other. Then Harrj exploded.
"it means that "
Hut even while Jennie seemed reel
ing to instant destruction, her wits
I he still seemed just a boy to her pcr
I liana always would though ho was now
twenty-six, und past.
Hefore she luul recovered herself suf
ficiently to (-.(art mill), Kenneth Harri
son wan beside her. "Ho acted might)
queer KdwanN."" Kenneth said, with,
a curiosity In which there was u bit of
auger. "WhaL was the matter with
himV" I
"Mr. IMwuribi did act queer," she I
ugrced. "it must huvo been because
he had bem drlnlclnc;. I thought It
better to dance with him than to have I
! a scene." !
"Of course." Her watchful c)c.(
saw that her explanation wus mnplc
ithnl he hud mi suspicion. "If he had
been impertinent, I'd have hud him
fired out uf the firm ecn though he
loe.H huvo tie backing Of a strong In-,
' terst, and even though he la Bctllug ,
'to be a, valuable man." i
I Jennie did not 'reply. A little later,'

beneath the surface chatter she thought;

the two men.
"Mr. Holt had just introduced me to

,Ab sho finished, she slipped her i llit
hand into Harry's left, hud her left
upon his shoulder, loll Iw-tutiUy into
step with the music uud slurted iivn.
Automaticall) his right hand went to
her waist aud the) weie dunclug.
They had made the round of the roul
once, both silent bt fore she begun even
partially to recover herself. Shu then
ventured to look nt Harr). The ten
alty of his face had relaxed ever no
little. They danced on, she now uud
then speaking un easy, inconsequential
word nlwu)s watchiug his face. After
that dance and during the encore nuiu
ber, it seemed to her that the crazed,
determined look was gone or almost
ul the broud

gone.
"Harry," she said quietl), gently,
utmost as if explaining things to herself,
"I don't think you've been quite )our
H tonight. And I think It's been
chiefly jbecause jou'vo been drinking.
Tou never did drink much or often, so
It's affected ou all the more. 1 think
that was what was the matter with
you, Harry."
"That's only part of it, Jennie!" he
bufBt out, with u groan and sho then
knew' that the tierce tensity in hlin was
broken. "I've been wuitiug four jears
for jou, loviug you all the time, And
when I saw jou with Kenneth Harrison
With .him when J didn't dure bo with
you and when I saw the way he looked
at you iu the theatro uud the wnj be
looked at jou up here I J oh, it
was just' jealousy, Jennie I"
"But, Harry, Kenneth Hurrison "
"Perhaps 1 wouldn't have iniuded it
!"0 much," c ruthed on, "if I didn't
feel that Kennelh Harrison, for ull his
nice ways, wasn't well, exactly till bet
should be. He's not gpod euougli for
you, Jennie! He's no no, I shouldn't i
be saying an) thing against him: I know
i nothing o my own knowledge. "Yes, I
think I would have minded it just the
isame whoever the other man was!"
"But, Harry," she said in her quiet
tolce, "I hardly know Kenneth Harri
son. It's his sister that I know thut's
my friend. I don't care unj thing about
him; and he's hardly seen me mor,e than
twice so how can he cure about me 7
It's just something jou're dreuiniug,
Harry."
"I'm not so sure ot that," lie re
turned. The orchestra had just slop
ped, leaving them near the entrance to
the roof. There was dumb misery aud
longing in his eyes. "I really lost
myself awhile ago, Jennie," ho said
humbly; "I had just one desire, to pull
you down. I want you, Jennie I shall
always want you and I'm going to try
to get you but I shall never again try
to get you that way. You have nothing
to feaf from me, Jennie nothing at
Mil. And now, I'm not going to take
ybu back to tyour friends. I-I can't.
Good-nigbt."
He turned quickly and was gone. Tor
a moment she stood there alone, a pang
In her own heart, seeing that misery
and longing in his frank, boyish eyes;

Blufl's. Tlie low -lying brick house i
seemed to her to contain fur-flung
iio.eus of great comtortaDic rooms-
there were sun parlors und great
pluzzas; there were greenhouses and
I siilendid gardens ; und sloping down
fiom the house there was a lawn that
l might have come from the giant looms
ot some supervelvet-mnker; ilnd below
J her was u little natural harbor that
had been extended and re-enforced by
huge granite breakwaters; and lying in
tho harbor were two sailboats and three
motor launches, and the gracefuliy
slender ninety-foot power-yacht, the
Myra, which in a week or two was to
begin its' dally task of carrying the male
Harrisons to and from the city, doing
the forty' miles in a little over an hour.
As she realUcd what it all signified,
Jennie drew u nlow, thrilled breath.
She was Jennie Malone!
And jet the belonged here they were
glad to have her here!

"THE RABBIT'S TOYS"
i (Latt week teat told how Peggy,
Billy and Judge Owl became tint on
mice iy going through a megaphone
and coming out the small end. In
Homeland they went to a party and
came near lexng eaten for supper,
hut esoaped on the Gopher Express of
the Mole Underground Railway, after
tying the tails of the mice to the root
of a tree.)
The Wreck In the Tunnel
rpHB Gopher Express 'rushed at high
1 speed through the black, dark tunnel
ef the Underground Hallway. Up In
front was Mr, Gopher, who was both
Murine and engineer of the strange sub
Say train. Clinging tightly to Mr.
Gopher's tall was Peggy; holding tight
to her skirt wan Billy, and hanging on
to Billy was Judge Owl, The three made
un the coaches of the express.
The train must have been late, for
Engineer Uopner was puiung m un

was line a uoy ut mc c w " -la
playing crack-the-whip. Only the
strong grip of his beak on Billy's coat
aved him from being thrown off.
Feggy was glad for one reason that
they were going fast, for they would
b far, far away by tho time the mice
could gnaw through the root to which
their tails had been tied by Billy. She
waa worried for another reason, for
h6w in their Sashing flight through the
dimly lighted stations could they pick
out the place where the tuunel branched
w. into the inousenole through which they
s Ji4 entered Mouseland? Jf they went

Billy wasn't worried: he was having
a lot of fun aboard the rushing Un
derground express. .
"Geo whllllkers. we're going fasti"
he gasped. "Wouldn't there be a big
smash-up If we met another train in
this tunnel?"
And just as Billy said this, tfcPlvas
a smash-up. The Gopher Express hit
another Gopher Express head on. Peggv
banged Into the gopher, Billy banged
Peggy, and Judge Owl banged into"
Billy. In an Instant all was excitement
aud confusion.

other, the damage is all done in ono big

and still. In tb U wreck on tho Molo
Underground Railway things were dif
ferent. The gophers bad met noso to
nos. and any boy knows that a thump
on the nose makes one fighting mad.
bo'or"ng tbat tlle7 we"0 engines
on the Underground Railway, and re
membering only tbat they were gophers
with smarting noses, they pitched into
each other full tilt. In an instant the
tunnel became a smother of dust and
flying fur.
Billy and Teggy were thrown against
tho side of the tunnel, the wall gave
way, and they found themselves tum
bling down a dark, dark hole.
,!!'T1FI.et3'' we're toners now," cried
Billy. The words were hardly out of
his mouth when they stopped with a
bump. But it was a soft bump as If
they had landed on cushions. Then
came a second bump as Judge Owl
tumbled down on top of them, and a
third bump as the cushions came to life
and bounced them off.
They were in a den with wild ani
mals Judge Owl, who could see in tho dark,
was Oret to .find put what the Wild ani-
joaU were.
