If it is of glass you will be able to watch the pets unobserved and too. glass is most ornamental. The aquariums sold in stores are made on the worst possible plans, they are globe shaped and close in toward j the top, giving very little room for j fresh air to enter the water. They are j blown too thin and the slightest jar j shivers them, and their shape makes j them difiicult to clean. A pickle jar from the corner grocer's J shelves or a broad shallow tank made ' by the nearby tinner will cost less than ! the globe and give longer life to every- j thing you put in it. If you have a tank made you will ' find 24x16x7 inches a good size to i handle and large enough to hold a num- j ber of fish.

"Tell her notb ing about Sylvester " I reached the village soon after dawn, but already the people were gathered at the store, where every one was discussing the case. As I heard nothing of Mrs. Kone. I set out toward her bouse When I met ber 1 noticed thai Iter seutle face wore a changed expression I deliv ered my message "I'll never apeak to November again as long as I live!" she said with deep vlndictiveness. "November's played double with me. I'll show him!" I walked beside her in silence. and just before we came In sight of the houses we met with Joe alone. He had evidently left Sylvester iti safe custody, .loe glanced from Sally to me. 1 read understand ins in bis eyes "We've got him trapped safe. Sally Not a hole for him to slip out by." Sally's rage broke from her control "You're just too cute, November .loe." she blazed, "with your tracking and finding out things and putting Val in jail! What do you say to It that I've been fooling you all the time? I never lost no pelts! 1 only said it to get tbe laugh against ye. Ye was beginning to believe ye could hear the muskrats eneezing!" "Is that so?" inquired .loe gently. "Yes. and I'm going into Lavette this minute to tell them!" Joe stepped in front of her. "Just as you like. Sally. But how'll ye ex plain these?" He flung open the buu die of skins he carried. Mrs. Hone turned color. "Where did ye find them?" she gasped. "On his back." She hesitated a moment, then. "1 gave Val that lot." she said carelessly "That's queer, now." said Joe, "cos It was on Injia Sylvester I found thein." Sally stared at Joe. then laughed suddenly, excitedly. "Oh. Joe. you're sure the cutest man ever made la this world!'' And witb that she flung her arms round his neck and kissed him. "I'd best pass that on to Val Black!' eaid Joe calmly. And Sally's blushes were prettiei than you could believe. There It no need for me to tell bow Black was liberated from the band of the crestfallen Evaus. who was as nonplussed as I myself had been at the breakdown of the case, which up to the last moment had on the face of It seemed Indestructible. I have never looked forward to any explanation more than that which November gave to Mrs. Rone, Black and myself tbe same evening. "It was the carcass of Rizpah give me the first start." said Joe. "As soon as I saw that I knew It weren't Val." "Why?" asked Sally. "Tou remember it was hacked opV Now here was the ease up to that: A thief had robbed Sally, and all the sign he left behind was a few threads of his necker and au English made cartridge.

"Because he wants lo get his bullet out of ber And why does he want to get his bullet? Only one possible rea son. Because it's different to the bul let he dropped on purpose in the house." , "By .lore!" ! cried "From that it all fits in It seems funny that the thief should drop a cartridge, funnier still that he should not notice he'd left a bit of his necker stuck to the unils on the door. Still. I'd allow them two things might hap pen. But when it came to his having more bits of his necker torn off by the spruces where Evans found them. It looked like as if the thief was a mighty poor woodsman. Which he wasn't. He hid liis tracks good and cunning. After that I guessed 1 was on the right sceut. but I wasn't plumb sure till I come up to the place where he killed the partridge. While he was snaring it he rested his rifle ag'in a tree. I saw (he mark of the butt on the ground and the scratch from the foresight upon the bark. Then I knew he didn't carry uo English rifle." "Elow did you know?" usked Sally. "I could measure its length agin the tree It was nigh a foot shorter than an English rifle." Vol's fist came down ou the table. "Bully for you. .loel" "Well. now. there was one more thing Besides (hat black fox. Sally here missed other marked pelts. They wasn't much value. Why did the thief take them? Agaiu only one reason.

Last night he started out to leave a few cheap pelts at Val's, but he had the black fox skin separate in his pack with a bit o' tea and flour and tobacco, so if we hadn't took him he'd have lit out into Maine an' sold the black fox pelt there." "But why should Sylvester have such a dowu ou Val'.'" Joe laughed. "Ask Val!" "Ten years ago." said Val. "when we was both rising twenty year, I gave Sylvester a thrashing he'd likely remember. He had a dog what weren't no use, and he decided to shoot it. So he did. but he didn't kill it. He shot it far back and left it In the woods, and 1 come along"— "The brute!" exclaimed Sally. "He's a dangerous liijiu," said No vember. "and he's of a breed that never forgets " * "Whan he gets out of prison you'll have to keep awake. Joe." said Val. "When be gets out I'll have the snow in my hair all right and you aud Sally will be old married folks," retorted Joe. "You'll sure be tired of each other by tbeu." Sally looked at Val, and Joe caught the look. "Leastways." he added, "you'll pre tend you are better'n you do now." We all laughed. CHAPTER VIII. The Case of Miss Virginia Planx. NOVEMBER JOE and I had been following a moose since day break. moving without speech Suddenly from somewhere ahead there broke out the sound of two shots and after a minute of two more. "Two shots going ou at steady inter vals," said Joe. "That's a call lor help There they go again We'd best fol low them up." We traveled for half an hour, guided by the sound, and came in sight of a man standing among the trees. We saw him raise his rifle aud tire twice straight upward to the sky "It's Planx!" said Joe tn surprise. "What? The millionaire you went Into the woods with to locate timber last year?"

"Ho! It's you. Joe!" he cried. "Yes. Mr. Plans." "Thafis lucky, for 1 need your help. My daughter was murdered yesterday." The words made me gasp, and not me only. "Miss Virginny!" cried Joe. "You can't mean that. Nobody would be brute enough to kill Miss Virginny!" As we walked Planx gave us the fol lowing facts: It appeared that he had been spending the last two weeks in a log hut which had been lent him by a friend, Mr .Wtlshere. His household consisted of one servant—his daugh ter's nurse, a middle aged woman whom they had brought with (hem froin New York—two guides and a man cook. On the previous day Miss Virginia had taken her rod after lunch, as she had often done before, and gone off to the river to tish "At f> I went to join her. She was not there. Her rod lay broken, and there were signs of a struggle and the tracks of two men. I shoutVd for Ed. the old guide He came running down, and we took iifi the trail. It led ns straight over to Mooseshank lake The ruffians had put her in our own caaoe and gone out on tlie lake " Planx paused and presently contin ued: "We went round the lake and found on the far side the spot where they had beached the cauoe. Leading up Into the woods from that point, we again struck the trail »f Ihe two men. but my daughter was no longer with them When they left the canoe they were going light.
