Before breakfast on the morning
.after the accident at the Cosby din
ner party, I hurried to Val's apart
ment. The nurse reported tliut Mrs.
t 'osby didn't want to he disturbed
and this verdict wasn't reversed
even after I sent In a special re
quest that Vai see me—her friend
Anne.
# This time It was Lane who carne
cut to me.
"Morning, kind neighbor," he said.
"Did you ever see anything quicker
■and braver than my girl was last
night? But now she's got the ner
vous jim-jams as a result. Guess
3 won't start otT to-day with your
dad and Uncle Ned. I've Just had
'em on the 'phone and told them
to go along to-night as they planned,
and I'll follow in a day or two after
Val's calmed down a bit."
"1 think you ought to wait," I
agreed. "But how does it come that
Uncle Ned isn't waiting for you?"
"Oh he's keen for that wonderful
father of yours and likes the idea
of starting with him. Besides, one
of us hits to get there pronto on ac
count of the option expiring day
after to-morrow on a big strip of
timber land we want to buy in. Be
good to my Vai while I'm gone. I
don't want my gir] to be lonesome."
"Must you go?" I ventured, think- :
ing how lonesome I always was
when Jim had to go oS and leave
me.
'Think 1 would if T could help
it?" asked the big brown bear
gruffly.
"I'll wuger you wouldn't!" I
laughed, and then, saying good-by,
X scampered off to join my .Timmie
at breakfast.
An hour later the little car and I
were caiing for l'ather Andrew, and
escorting him to the Pettingill
apartment. 1 wanted to take some
tiowers to the poor little Willough
hy twins, and I had no doubt that
Father Andrew and Uncle Ned
might have a few arrangements for
the trip they were taking together.
"I'm awfully glad you aren't mak
ing this sad pilgrimage of yours
alone." T said as we piled into the
car the mass of colorful gladioli I
had purchased, and added the bas
ket of fruit Father Andrew insisted
on offering.
Aye found poor little Lacy
propped up in bed, a mass of ban
dages covering the cropped left side
of her head, while the other side of

SATURDAY EVENING,
her face peered out timidly from
■ between the lino and the saucy
brown mane of hulr which hud been
t bobbed on the right.
"Dana's gone to have her hair
bobbed too, so we'll be alike," watl
' ed the invalid. Of co'se if we ain't
beautiful at all, I reckon no man
ager's ever goln' to look at us and
we might as well go back home and
1 starve. One of us ought to have
liyph hyah!"
Aunt Mollie laughed with the
bustling cheer that was bound to
have its effect.
"Listen to that child talk when
she gets excited. Isn't the way ehe
says 'her hair' a classic? I'm tell
ing Dana, f think they'll do twice
as well when they look llko a couple
of saucy little boys. How's Valerie
this morning?"
"She's pretty miserable. Wouldn't
see me."
"Poor, brave, spoiled darling!"
said Aunt Mollie, wisely. "Do you
wonder I love her, Anne? She didn't
hesitate a minute to risk everything
for this child here. And now she's
poutingr because Lane has to go on
his trip."
"He disappointed her. And com
ing on top of the disgust she felt
with Shelly Blake for sitting there
like a stone image and not doing
one thing to help, it's making Vai
cynical aboutlmen and their cour
j age and their hearts," I explained.
"11l take her out on a jaunt with
J my twinnies as soon as our Lacy's
j strong enough to move. We'll show
■ Vai that she doesn't have to be cyn
| ical about women, won't we, Lacy?
{ You'll never fail to show all the
i gratitude you feel, will you, dear?"
J "Never!" declared Lacy, and I
| wonder now why there promptly I
! leaped into my head the old quo- [
I tation:
• "Never is a long time."
| "Presently, Father Andrew and i
i Uncle Ned having arranged to meet i
| and board the train at eleven, we j
; departed amid Lacy's rapturous j
! thanks for our gifts,
j "Now for a happy hour or two for ]
just us two." I said.
"Yes." replied Father Andrew I
j thoughtfully, "we might as well be [
i happy while we can. When J think i
j what one pufT from a litle candle j
j can do, 1 realize that it doesn't pay |
, to chafe against the thing you didn't j
I look for and able to help. Did j
j you see that little Phoebe go to
I pieces and lean on Neul last night?"
I "Yes," 1 replied. "It set my heart j
,at rest about one thing. It's Neal '
: she turns to in emergencies."
"Yes, she turns to him all right,"
| replied Father Andrew slowly. "But
i 1 wonder does that mean he can
I turn to her. She acted like a kinda
; weak sister when there was trouble
i around though it weren't none of
| her's—T wonder how she'd act when
it belonged to her and—Neal?"
"Oh, Daddy, Daddy!" I cried, giv
j ing Father Andrew the name that
! denied that I could have a real fa
| tlier other than him anywhere in |
: the world. "Let's be happy—just 1
j happy. Because maybe after you
| take, that Canadian trip we won't
, know much more real happiness. 1
j Oh, I wish I hadn't said that!" I !
i added. "It sounds too horrible —and i
I hopeless."
"Oh, we'll be happy again all
I r'ght." declared Father Andrew,
i "After all, you and I are generally •
j happy together, aren't we, Babbsie?"

The King of Ev. '
Dorothy passed several very happy
weeks in the Land of Oz-as the guest
of the royal Ozma, who delighted
to please and interest the little Kan
sas girl. Alany now acquaintances
,were formed and many old ones re
i newed, and wherever she went Dor
jothy found herself among friends.
, One day, however, as she sat in
j < tenia's private room, she noticed
! hanging upon the wall a picture
• which constantly changed in appear
|anee, at one time showing a meadow
i and at another time a forest, a lake
j or a village.
I "How curious!" she exclaimed,
I after watching the shifting scenes for
ia few moments.
| "Yes." said Ozma, "that is really
| a wonderful invention in magic. If
; I wish to see any part of the world
jor any person living, . I need only
express the wish and it is shown in
the picture."
) "Alay I use it?" asked Dorothy,
eagerly.
"Of course, my dear."
"Then I'd like to see the old Kan
sas farm, and Aunt Em," said the I
girl.
Instantly the well-remembered |
farmhouse appeared in the picture I
and Aunt Em could be seen quite
plainly. She was engaged in wash
ing dishes by the kitchen window
and seemed quite well and contented.
The hired men and the teams were
in the harvest fields behind the house
| and the corn and wheat seemed to
the child to be in prime -condition.
On the side porch Dorothy's pet dog.
Toto. was lying fast asleep in the
1 sun, and to her surprise old Speckles
; was running around with a brood
iof twelve new chickens trailing af
j ter her.
"Everything seems all right at!
home," said Dorothy, with a sigh of!
i relief. "Now I wonder what Uncle j
Henry is doing."
The scene of the picture at once j
shifted to Australia, where, in a. j
pleasant room in Sydney, Uncle j
Henry was seated in an easy chair,
solemnly smoking his briar pipe. He i
I looked sad and lonely, and his hair
was now quite white an<i his hands
and face thin .and wasted.
"Oh!" cried Dorothy, in an anxi- '■
ous voice, "I'm sure Uncle Henry
isn't getting any better, and irs be
cause he is worried about me. Ozma
dear, T must go to him at once!"
"How can you?" asked Ozma.
"T don't know." replied Dorothv;
"but let us go to Glinda the Good,
I'm sure she will help me, and ad
vise me how to get to Uncle Henry."
Oznia readily agreed to this plan
and caused the Sawhorse to be iiar- j
nessed to a pretty green and pink !
phaeton, and the two girls rode away j
to visit the famous sorceress.
Glinda received them graciously I
and listened to Dorothy's story with
attention.
"I have the magic belt, vou know."!
said the Utile girl. "If I buckled it
around my waist and commanded it'
to take me to Uncle Henry.-wouldn't I
j it do it?" '
"I think so," replied Glinda, with
a smile.
... " An< ' then." continued Dorothy,
"if I ever wanted to come back here
j again, the belt would bring me."
"In that you are wrong." said the j
sorceress. "The belt has magical |
powers only while it is in some fairy j
country, such as the I.and of Oz or
the I-and of Kv. Indeed, my little
friend, were you to wear it and wish'
yourself in Australia, with your uncle,
the wish would doubtless be fulfilled,!
because it was made in fairyland.
Hut you would not find the magic!
belt around you when you arrived at'
vour destination."
I—BILIOUS?—I
If you hare bad taste in mouth,
foul breath, furred tongue, dull
headache, drowsiness, disturbed
sleep, mental depression, yellow
ish skin—then you are bilious.

"What would become of it?" asked. ly believe that sl.e was rcullv there.
the girl.
| "It would be lost, as were your)
i silver shoes when you visited Oz be-!
fore, and no one would ever see it
| again. It seems too bad to destroyi
j the use of the magic belt in that way, I
j doesn't it?"
: "Then," said Dorothy, after a j
moment's thought, "1 will give the
magic belt to Oznia, for she can use!
it in hej- own country. And she can j
wish me transported to Uncle Henivi
without losing the belt."
'That is a wise plan," nepliedl
| Glinda.
i So they rode back to the Emerald I
i City, and on the way it was arranged ;
| that every Saturday morning Ozinai
would look at Dorothy in her magic!
picture, wherever the little girl I
might chance to be. And if she saw
Dorothy make a certain signal then!
Ozma would know that the little
Kansas girl wanted to revisit the.
.Land of Oz and by means of tl.e|
Nome King's magic belt would wish l
| that she might instantly return. j
i This having beeh agreed upon Dor- !
iothy bade' good-by to all her friends i
iTiktok wanted to go to Australia,;
i too: but Dorothy knew that the.
'machine man would never do for a!
servant in a civilized country, and'
the chances were that his machinery!
wouldn't work at all. So she loft
; l.im in Ozma's care.
Billina, on the contrary, preferred ■
the Tatnd of Oz to any other country.!
; and refused to accompany Dorothv. i
"The bugs and ants (hat 1 find'
here are the finest flavored in the
world," declared the Yellow lieu, |
"and there are plenty of them. Sol
here 1 shall end my days: and !•
must say, Dorothy, my dear, Ihatj
you are .very foolish to go buck)
again into tl.at stupid, humdrum
world again."
"Uncle Henry needs me," said j
Dorothy, simply; and everyone ex
cept Billina thought it was right that)
she should go.
All Dorothy's friends of the Land
of Oz —both old and new —gathered '
in a group in front of the palace to (
bid her a sorrowful good-by and to'
i wish her long life and happiness. :
After much hand shaking, Dorothy!
kissed Ozma once more, and then
handed her the Nome King's magic
belt, saying:
"Now, dear Princess, when I
wave my handkerchief, please wish i
me with Uncle Henry. I'm aw'fly
sorry to leave you—and the Sca"f—'
crow—and the Tin Woodman—and ;
the Cowardly Lion —and Tiktok—and
—and everybody—but I do want niyl
! Uncle Hextry! So good-by. ail of I
you."
Then the little girl stood on one
of the big emeralds which decorated;
the courtyard, and after looking once
again at each of her friends, she'
waved her handkerchief.
The next thing Dorothy knew, she
was standing beside her Uncle!
Henry! Uncle Henry rubbed Idsi
i eyes a moment, as if he could scarce- J
V
. ... inui si.e was reany mere,
then drew her to him in happiness
j and kissed her.
j (Jf course ho hail to hear all about •
i how she got to him, and how it hup
i pened that she was not drowned,;
(after all. and all about her wonder-'
iful friends. But the next thing tl.ey
j did was to plan a trip home.
It did not. take Uncle Henry long!
! to get well, and for them lo puck up j
(and take ii steamer for California, j
J "How good it seems to ones own
icountry again!" cried Dorothy,;
( many days later, when their ship
i drew into port. "Shall we start at
j once for Kansas, or do you suppose
j 1 eould stop off in San Francisco and
( sec a little girl 1 know who lives
j there? I could visit her mother a
! few days, couldn't I?"
"Yes, if you like," replied Uncle,
j Henry, "and will go direct to Hug- i
, soil's Siding for a visit with my s
i friend. Bill Hugson; you can join
me there and if'll go on together;
! to Kansas."
j This is exactly what happened.
I Uncle Henry went on to Hugson's!
! Siding and left Dorothy in cure of
j her little friend's mother. Dorothy
j had great fun telling t'.">ps dear I
I friends all about her wonderful cx-:
j periences with the people of <iz, and;
j the visit passed all too quickly. Be
fore she knew it. she had left thorn
land was on the train, headed for
( Hugson's Siding.
| The train from "Frisco" was very
j late. It should have ai—lved at Hug
' son's Siding at midnight, but it was
already five o'clock aiid Hie gray
'dawn was breaking in the cast when
ithe little train slowly rumbled up,
•to the open shed that served for the
(stationhouse. As it came lo a stop I
I the conductor culled out in n loud
J voice:
I "Hugson's Stiiing,!"
At once a little girl ro" from her
seat and walked lo the door of the
; car. currying a wlcke* sritense in one
band and n round birdcage covered'
up with newspapers in the other.;
while a pr-rsol was tucked under
! liee arm. The conductor helped liem
off the rsi•• pnd flion the engineer!
'started Ids t-ain again, so Iba' it
miffed and groaned and movul siov

be was ,e ]ae vas because all
" rough the "i"ht tbe-e were times
"•'""i the solid euri.l. shook and
i trembled under him, and the en
gineer was afraid that at mv
moment the rails might spread apart
• and an acc'dcat linonen to bis pas-i
scnge-s. So bp moled the ears
! slowly and with caution.
I The I'ttle Kir! stood still to WBtc'i

I lieht not u bouse of any sort was!
(visible near the station, nor was any
(person in sight; but after a while.
, the child discovered a horse and
J bujjKy standing near a group of trees
a short distance away. She walked
| toward it and found the horse tied
I to a tree standing motionless, with
I its head hanging down almost to the
j ground. It was a big horse, tall and
| bony, with long legs and large knees
and feet. She could count his ribs
easily where they showed through
the skin of his body, and his head •
was long and seemed altogether too
big for him, as if it did not fit. His
tail was short and scraggly, and liis!
harness had been broken in "many
places and fastened together again
with cords and bits of wire. The
buggy seemed almost, for it had a I
shiny top and side curtains. Getting!'
around in front, so she could look;
inside, the girl saw a boy curled up
on the seat fast asleep.

Advice to the Lovelorn

HAVE PATIENCE
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX: I
I have known a,girl for the past j
row years. When I proposed to her!
sin told me that she admired me verv •
much, as she has shown me through •
her conduct, but she does not think
that she cares enough to marry me. |
She has given me n proposition to,
I stay away a few months without see
ing one another, and time will prove
to her what step she ought to tak**.
In tlie meantime I feel very inu.-'t
hurt in not seeing her. and the onlv,
.thing left for me to do is trv ind for
-Br°t her. BKKMUI >A.
Isn't she worth waiting for a little
while? If you haven't any patience J
-nd won't control your own longings
In order to attain vour goal, you don't [
deserve to win. Wait a few weeks i
and then see if the girl hasn't misseel
vour devotion. A month will probably;
shew her the truth about her own
for lines. Rut don't nag at her to see
you (hiring that time. Stay away and
giya her a chance to figure out what,
life will bo without you.
