wntched Trk's face, that tho child
must be dend, that she would never
come out of thnt dend faint, but when
at last her lashes flickered and she
opened wide, unhcclng nmber eyes,
Nnncy felt her heart continct with n
sharp poignancy that was like ncuto
pain.
She wanted to hnng over Trix with
madly voiced endearments, but know
ing tho seriousness of the child's con
dition, she crushed buck the impulc.
Trix lay silent for n moment on the
pillows, nnd then a long shiver shook
tier slender llttlo frame, and she sat
bolt upright, her eyes pitcously terror
stricken. Like a flash nn idea occurred to
Nancy, nnd sho leaned over Trix
quickly. "I'm here, darling, you're

that's nil."
"A dream." the while lips repeated,

shivered uncontrollably.
"I know," Nancy returned, "dreams

Subconsciously she was nware of the
fact that her volco was quite cnlra nnd
unruffled, nnd it had nn immediate
effect upon Trix.
Sho snuggled down among the pillows
with one of Nnncy's hands held tightly
in hers, and gradually her eyes dropped.
Nnncy could feel the slight body relax
in sleep and sho turned glad eyes to

back, out of Trlx'a view.
"She dldu't even know you wore

MRS. WILSON'S ANSWERS
Dear Mrs. Wilson I would be
very grateful If you would give tho
various flavorings npproprlato to tho
various vegetables nnd cream soups,
such ns onion, celery, spinach, let
tuce, corn, cnbbnge, carrot, turnip,
pea and string benn. In making them
nt homo I seem to miss some flavor
that should bo there. I should also
much like a recipe for graham muf
fins without nny wheat flour.
F. L. T.
Use
One teaspoon of salt,
One-fourth teaspoon of white pepper,
One-fourth teaspoon of paprika,
Three drops of onion extract,
Three drops of celery extract
to every pint of soup.
Graham Gems
Plnco In a bowl
Tieo and one-half cups of graham
flour.
One teaspoon of salt,
7'tco level tablespoons of baking pow
der. Two level tablespoons of melted but
ter,. One cup of milk.
Beat to mix nnd then turn In mufGn
pnns nnd bake for twenty-five minutes
in a hot oven.
WHATS WHAT

The motto of the nuld Scotch chief
tain, "Trust all In all or not at nil," Is In
Itself a whole chapter of noblo courtesy.
Nothing Is more lrrltatlnc to others
nothing In more clearly nn evidence of

nnd Pcrlmutter would call a "low-llfo"
bringing up, than the habit of uuspeetlng
everybody.
Even ordinary business transactions
niay cure a mnn of this fault 1 If not. he
Is likely to bo tho loser, for other men
honoruble men do not toleroto suspi
cions of their character. So It Is usually
a woman who Is habitually distrustful,
nnd generally another womnn becomos
the suspect. The Injustlco of tho "mis

CHAPTER I
Peggy Sees Strange Things
Peggy nnd Billy snt staring nt the
Jewels in tho pirates' enve. Whnt se
cret did those jewels hold? If they could
speak, what could they tell of the mys
tery of the vanished plrntes? And whnt
could they tell of the punishment of
the plrntes by Mnglsco, the fairy magi
cian? Maglsco, nccordlng to the story told
by Fllttcr-Flnsh, tho fairy leader, hnd
left a message In which he said the pl
rntes would bo shut up for hundreds of
yenrs. Not until they had changed
from bad pirates Into good pirates nnd
not until u fnir young girl nnd u bruve
young lnd had como to their rescue
Would they bo set free.
"If tho plrntes had been shut up for
hundreds of years, I think they have
been punished enough," declared Billy.
"So do I," added Peggy.
"But not unless they have become
good plrntes, for they were very bud
pirates," taid Fllttcr-Fhisb.
"Tlirv would limn to lin vorv. very
bad pltntcs indeed not to have tho bad
ness tnkeu out of them by being shut
up hundreds and hundreds of years,"
Insisted Billy. "Once when I wns bad
I was shut up In n closet, and the bad
ness went out of me very fast. I was
very, very good within an hour."
"Wouldn't It be wonderful if I wore
tho girl nnd you the lad to Bet them
free?" mused Peggy.
"Let's look closely nmong the gems
for some trace of tho plrntes," snld
Billy. So, with Flltter-Flush nnd the
other fnlrles, they flitted nbout nmong
the thousands of jewels in tho pirates'
jve. But they saw no tnfco of pi
rrues, who, according to FIlttcr-FlaBh's
story, were shut up In tho gems.
"if we were only boy nud girl size
ngnin we could senrch better," sultl
Billy, for being fairy size they were not
largo enough to lift the top jewels to
look nt those beneath.
"I wish wo were boy nnd girl size,"
cried Peggy. And of n sudden they
were boy nnd girl size again. Bumpl
They lnnded on tho floor, for, of course;
the wings mado for them by Legs, the
spider wing-maker, wcro now too small
to bear them up.
"Oh, I nm sorry I made that wish,"
cried Peggy, who had found It a lot
of fun to bo ublc to lilt nbout with the
fnlries. Until her wish was granted
she tiadn t remembered the strnnge
wishing power given her by Folly
Wisher, tho goblin.
Tho fairies were sorry, too. They
flew about sadly nnd tried to tell Peggy
nnd Billy how badly they felt. But
Peggy nnd Billy couldn't hear them,
for now their ears were too big to hear
Mich tiny sounds ns the fulry voices.
"Oh, I wish we hnd magic trumpets
so we could hear the fairies," exclaimed
1'eggy.
At once Billy gave n shout of joy.
In one corner of tho cave be had found
two old-time ear trumpets. They put
these to their c.irs, una now tucy could
hear the fairies plainly.
"It is too bad you have been made
big ngnin," cried FUtter-Flnsh to them.
"But now ou can search better for the
plrntes' hiding place."
Thnt wns true, nnd Peggy nnd Billy
began nt onco to look into the jewels
buried in the different idles of gems.
They senrched nnd searched, but found
nothing until Peggy came upon n big
sparkling diamond. Sho ciied out in
joy at the beauty of tho diamond nud
hold it closely to look at it. Then her
cry of joy turned to n scream of fear
nnd wonder. She had seen something
wondrous strange in the depths of the
diamond.
What that wondrous strange thing
wns will be told tomorrow.
Adventures With a Purse
WHENEVER I see n collar and cuff

which I tenturetl to buy for her, anil
she was perfectly delighted with them.

Read Your Character
By Digby Phillips
No. 10. The Voice of Caution
The voice of the cttremcly cautious
person, of the downright sccrcttte per
son is. as jou might epecl, n low
pitched voice. But i-tery low-pitched
volco is by no means the voice of cau
tion. There nre a number nf vcrv dif
ferent things indicated by low-pitched
voices.
It Is not only low pitched. It is nlso
a soft voice. Whj ? Because tho soft
voico is the sign, or rather the result
of self-control, nnd naturally tho cau
tious person Is self-controlled.
Another point, its tones nre rather
even nnd inountonous, and n n rule
there is 11 tendency for, the person to
talk without moving the lips n grcut
de.il.
Dili ou ever, in the classroom, try
to tulk suireptitlouslj to one of your
clussmntes? Of course ou did, nud' the
voico jou used in doing it wns tho
olco of emit ion, wnsn't It? That makes
it cienr, doesn't It, why tho volco of
caution is low soft, monotonous, com
ing from lips that muvo but sllghtlj.
Fur it must be understood thnt the
volco of caution is one of those signals
of character which Is purely ucquired.
It's the rcsu't of hnblt, not of hcreditv,
and when Judging people by this incis
ure, jou must be enreful to judge posi
tive!), not iicgnthely. That Is to say.,
don't conclude that n person Is not
1 tuitions because this indication is lack
ing. But where you do see tho Intllen.
tlou jou can be suro thnt the person is
not only cautious, out extremely cau
tious. Perhaps suspicious would bu a
better word.
Tomorrow The Stiff Upper Uri
Josephine Would Have Groipn Up
to Responsibility When She Was Nine
If Some One's Heart Had Not Been Touched at the Thought of
a Little Girl Who Grieved for a Murdered Mother
EVERYTHING seemed dark nnd
lonely and snd to Josephine.
She wns only nine, the oldest of five
children, nnd her mother linjrl been mur
dered.
The place where Josephine lived wns
n dim, filthy court so nnrrow thnt you
could almost touch both sides at once
with outstretched nrms.
Tho rest of the children plnyed nlong
Just nbout an usual, wondering some
times nbout where mother wns and why
sho didn't como home, but they were
too little to understand what It was all
about.
Josephine didn't quite understnnd
herself; but she knew thnt mother had
gone to stay, and she grieved because of
thnt, nnd because Daddy wns t-o snd,
nnd because it was up to her to keep on
going n.s if nothing hnd happened.
It isn't easy to lmvo the responsibili
ties of n family lnnded on ou sud
denly when you nro just getting used
to the fact that you nren t tho baby
any longer.
And n fnmlly like this In a sltuntlon
like thii Is a pretty big responsibility
for anybody.
SO IT wbb a dnrk, dreary, unhappy
world for Josephine In the weeks
thnt followed her mother's tragic death.
Then something hnppened.
A womnn who hnd no children of her
own nnd plenty of means to take care
of them with nsked Josephine to come
live with her.
She will give her nn education, plenty
of nlco clothes, good food nnd much
more care than sho could ever hnve If t
hr. went on mothering her mother's
fnmlly
And the little girl will hnve some
thing that she never would have had in
tho dnrk. narrow court she will have
a childhood nnd n girlhood, Instcnd of
going straight from bnby days to wom
