Mrs. Livingstone accepted the

A PLEASING GOOD-NIGHT SERIES
By David Cory.
NOW. as little Tubs Junior trav
elled on his Journey, the air
grew colder and colder and
snow began to fall from the four
orntra of the aky. And, oh. dear
an, the wind from the cold north
whistled Its ley tun through the
tree tops, nd Puss turned up his
' collar and blew on his pws to keep
tfctm warm. And pretty soon, s he
entered deep forest, he saw a
yoang man tied to a tree, and when
Pass cam up to him the jouner man
staid In weak role. "Littler. I
fear I shall -perish, for I cannot

snarling role a!d-
"Lar this young rosn to m"
And then what do you auppos Puss
did? He opened his knapsack and
took out soma honey which the
giant, whom I told you about three
or four stories ago, had given him,
and o8rd it to th wolf.
"This is kind of you." said th
great, crust animal, and he licked
up th hony and asked for mora.
So Puss opened his knapsack again
and tosk out th rest of the honey,
snd when th worlf hd eaten it he
sldf "Tou hsre been kind to me,
and I will reward you." and he bit
etf the rope and ' the yo'irj-r man

of his slight attentions to her
cousin.
Slight attentions! Had they been
more than that? Cynthia allowed
herself the indulgence of musing on
.the various times she and Milton
had been alone together. She re
.membered that eenlng In her
uncle's den when Milton told her
how sorrj he was for her.
Sho remembered also another oc
casion on which he had tried to
sympathize with her and had ae
sured her that if she ever wished
to talk to him of her trouble he
would be honored to have her do so.
Hut. most clt-ariy of all. she recalled
the Interrupted conversation iu the
taxlcab on the night of the acci
dent, when Milton astonished her by
telling ner of hit having seen her
in the hotel in Chicago, of his hav
ing picked up a letter ahe bad
dropped, of her having spoken to
him.
She had atarted impulsively to
reply to the reminiscence when the
cab collided with truck and ahe
was stunned, recovering conscious
ness several minutes later In Mil
ton s arms.
She wondered now Just how much
she might have told him bad the
accident npt occurred. She knew
that ahe had begun to say that ah
recollected seeing him in the hotel
on the night before she came eazu
What she recalled most clearly
about that first meeting1 was tliu

What wonderful eyes he had!

Long, was engaged to be married to

; Oh, it was dreadful! She sat up
1 straight and pressed her hands con-
-rulslvely together.

"What's the "matter,
I'jnthla" she whispered. "Are you
chill)? Shall I help jou pull your

Cyntlita. shook her head. "I am
all right." she murmured. Tor

I did not mean to do It. I had
