AFTER THE STORM THE CALM
(Copyright, 1914, by W. Werner.)
Mattle bent over her sewing as she
forced herself to present an attitude
of in difference while her visitor in
sisted on talking about David Gres
ham. In spite of the visitor's closest
exmlnation of Mattie's countenance,
she failed to discern anything that
would prove her listener more than
politely interested In her news, but
despite her outward composure Mattie
was all of a trenib'e.
So David had sold the house—her
house! As such she had always looked
upon it, for hadn't he built it for her
and hadn't they both taken much
pleasure In deciding just how It would
be built? If it wasn't for that
wretched quarrel they would both be
livling in it now, but Mattie was stub
born, and although she knew that
the quarrel was her own fait she
could not bring herself to acknowl
edge that fault, and gentle, loving
David, who had ever been willing to
shoulder all blame, had declared that
he had yielded too often to her and
that this time she must give in or the
quarrel would never be made up.
Mattie had not given in, and, in
stead, had looked every day for signs
of relenting on David's part, nut the
latter kept his word and refused to
make the slightest overture for peace.
His silence nearly broke Mattie's
heart, but she told herself that he had
ceased to love her and didn't want to
make up their quarrel, and this idea
taking firm root in her head she
steeled herself against the pain in her
heart and tried ineffectually to forget
him.
And David, as the weeks passed and
no word came from Mattie, decided
that she did not love him, and, he
though it brought him much pain, he
tried to comfort himself with the
thought that it was better to find out
now than when it was too late. But
the belief that Mattie did not love
him did not keep him from loving her,
and their occasional meetings caused
him much suffering.
At last these encounters became un
beaable, and he decided to go far
away from the girl he found himself
loving more and more. A wooden sign
of "For Sale" was placed in front of
the little house he had built with
such loving care and he tried to find
forgetfulness in the oity.
Months slipped past and the houre
remained unsold and Mattie had be
gun to feel secure in the thought that
perhaps David would not be able to
find a purchaser for it, but her tor
tured heart was made to bear Btill
more pain when her visitor told her
of its sale.
For some time after her caller left
Mattie sat as in a stupor. When at last
she roused herself it was to hastily
decide that she would make one more
visit—a farewell one—to the house of
her hopes and dreams.
Down the road she went, all unsee
ingly, for the mist in her eyes blurred
everything around her, and It was
not until a dull roar of thunder broke
the silence that she realized it had
grown very dark, and that there was
goin to be a storm. Frightened, she
tried to hurry. The woods on both
sides of her loomed dark and forbid
ing. Aagin there came a mufiflled
roar of thunder then another, this
time louder and much nearer. Terror
lent speed toher feet and she reached
the house just as the storm burst in
all its furry.
The house protected her from the
storm that was raging outside, but
in her heart was a still wilder storm,
and It raged with still greater fury.
The girl buried her head in her arms
and sobbed.
Peal upon peal of thunder woke
the echoes. Flash after flash of light
ning coursed zigzag through the
heavens, and in the tumult the sob
bing girl did not hear the door open
or the footsteps of the man who en
tered.
In a lull between the humbling of
the thunder the newcomer thought he
heard sounds from a room upstairs
and, wonderingly, went in quest of
the cause.
The pretty girl, with face all tear
stained, looked up as he entered the
room and, with a cry of "David!"
broke Into still wilder weeping.
At the sight of the girl he loved in
tears David forgot his hesolution that
he would never give in to Mattie,
forgot everything save that he loved
her and wanted to comfort her and
his arms went round her. Gradually
Mattie's sobs ceased and she lay pass
ive in his arms.
Then as the realisation of their
quarrel dawned upon them, Mattie
struggled to free herself, and David
opened his arms and stood away from
her. "Mattie." he said softly. I thought
you were glad to see me."
"I was so frightened," Mattie re
plied, "and—and then you came but
I thought you far away."
I have received an offer for the
house ."David answered, "and I
wanted to see it once more before I
parted with it forever. I came here
direot from the station and the storm
caught me when only half way. But
what brought you here, Mattie. in all
this storm?"
"I heard you had sold the place, and
ao I too came to bid it good-by," an
swered the girl. And then, aa she
thought of all David meant to her
and If how good he had always been
to her. She conquered her foollah,
stubborn pride and added: "Oh, David
I juat cannot bear to have any one
elee have our little house. I love it
ao!
David's face shone with a lutppy

wish anybody hurt, and you don't
either. If you stayed at home in the
Old Brier Patch, as you ought to.
Bowser never —ould bother you, and
you know it You just keep away
from Farmer Brown's garden or you
may get into worse trouble than Bow
ser has. For my part, I wish that if
some one had to be caught it had been
Old Man Coyote instead of Bowser.
With him out of the way I would
worry a lot less When you are away."
"Pooh!" retorted Peter. "There" is
nothing to worry about. Hi. there.
Jimmy Skunk! Have you heard the
news?"
Jimmy Skunk, who happened along
just then, grinned.
"Do you suppose there is anybody
who hasn't? That dog howled loud
enough, goodness knows! Serves him
right, and I'm glad of it. I only wish
that it had been Farmer Brown's boy
himself who had been caught. Per
haps then he wouldn't be so keen
about setting traps," replied Jimmy
"I'm on my way to the Smiling Pool
to see how thev feel about it over
there. Come on over," he added.
"Is the way clear?" asked Peter
anxiously.
"Of course," replied Jimmy. "If
it wasn't I wouldn't have asked you.
Besides, you're safe enough as lonp
as you stay with me. You ought to
know that by this time."
So, in spite of all that Mrs. Peter
could say, Peter went with Jimmy
Skunk to the Smiling Pool. They
found everybody there very much ex
cited They could talk of nothing
else but how Bowser the Hound had
been ca-ught in a trap, and there was
great rejoicing.
"Perhaps he'll tell Farmer Brown's

REJOICING OX THE GREEN
MEADOWS.
(By Thornton W. Burgess.)
(Copyright, 1914, by J. G. Lloyd.)
Tou may be cure that Sammy Jay
and Blacky th« Crow lost no time in
spreading the news that Bowser the
Hound had been caught in one of the
trape set by Farmer Brown's boy for
Old Man Coyote. It was the greatest
piece of news since the coming of
Buster Bear to the Green Forest. And
somehow almost every one seemed
to think it was good news. Peter
Rabbit hurried back to the dear Old
Briar Patch to tell Mrs. Peter, and he
was so excited he could hardly talk
straight.
"I guess he won't ever chase us any
more! I hope he can't ever walk on
that foot again," he concluded.
"Oh, Peter, you know perfectly well
you don't wish anything of the kind:
that would be too dreadful," cried
tender-hearted little Mrs. Peter, who,
you know, used to be Miss Fuzzytail.
Peter looked a wee bit ashamed.
"Well, anyway, I hope every time
he gets to thinking about hunting one
of us his leg will pain him so that
he Just won't feel like hunting any
more. I guess that now it is going
to be perfectly safe to go up to Farm
er Brown's garden whenever we hap
pen to feel like it. I believe I'd Tike
a taste of fresh cabbage this very min
ute. My, but I'm glad that dog has
got into trouble! I wonder if Old
Man Coyote had anything to do with
it?"
"You ought to be ashamed of your
self, Peter," said Mrs. Peter in her
severest manner. "I am sure I don't

"I have no love for Old Man Coyote,
because I know that he would gobble
me up the very first chance he got,
but I think we owe him a vote of
thanks for teaching Farmer Brown's
boy a lesson. When he sees how that
trap hurt Bowser, perhaps he won't
be so eager to trap others. That dog
gave me a terrible fright once when
I went out to see the Great World,
and now that he has had a great
fright himself, perhaps hereafter he'fi
think twice before he tries to frighten
those smaller than himself."
"I move we send that vote of thanks
to Old Mai. Coyote and that Sammy
Jay be the one to take it," said Billy
Mink.
And to this every one agreed, even
Peter Rabbit.
