MR. KINGFISHER S HOUSE
Tinker Bob was anxious to see the
hole in thei bank where Long: Neck
said Mr. Kingfisher lived. It was
only a short distance from where they
were fishing:. Major role Cat wanted to
go too. They were not very far from
the spot where the fishing: party had
anchored when they heard a cry and
looking back they saw Silky, the Mon
key, coming after them on the jump.
I don't think he oyer ran so fast in all
his life as he did whil tryins to catch
up with the Kins;. I don't suppose
he will ever want to ko fishing: again.
The end of his tail was swelled up twice
its size right cn the end, and I can
tell you he kept it, from dragging- on
the ground, for it was very sore.
Presently they were at the place
where Long Neck indicated, and
Tinker Bob stretched himself out on
the bank with his head over the edge
looking for the hole in the side. What
did he find? Well, he found that instead
of one hole in the side of the bank
there were a dozen. But he could not
see into anv one of them from the top
of the bank and it was too steep to
try to climb along the side and water
was deep at the; foot.
"Well, I can say this much for Mr.
Kingfisher, he knows where to build
his house so that no one will look in
through the windows. I want to see
what kind of a place it is inside." Then j
the King: thought of his menu, tne
Creature of his Desire. "I have it. I will
tap the Stone of Knowledge and see
what happens."
So he tapped the Wonderful Stone
and instantly he was sitting in the
Magic Basket right in front of that
door that led into Mr. Kingfisher's
house. "Well, that's about the neatest
hole in the bround. I have ever seen."
The hole went straight back for a short
distance and then there seemed to be
another hole that branched off to the
right. There he saw a number of eggs
half covered with feathers.
Suddenly there came a ratling sound
to his ear and looking up he saw Mrs.
Kingfisher coming as fast as ever she
could fly. She thought someone was
disturbing her nest. 'O don't worry."
said Tinker Bob, "I am the King of the
Forest, and I only came litre to see
where that wonderful fisherman lived.
I wouldn't do you any harm."
"O King. I was so frightened to
eee you looking into my house," said
He saw a number of eggs half cov
ered with feathers.
Mrs. Kingfisher. "No one in all th
forest ever locked into our house be
fore." Then she went inside to see
if the eggs had been disturbed.
Presently there was a rattling sound
twice as loud and Tinker looked up to
see Mr. Kingfisher himself coming
very fast, but when he saw it was the
King who was looking into his house
he was happy to think he was being
visited by so important a person.
Next Fishers of the Night.

TIT FOR TAT.
And Arline seemed to fairly flutter
round Ned for the rest of the evening.
She looked like a blazing butterfly. Her
gauzy dress floated about her slight
form alluringly. She was the embodi
ment of girlish charm and beauty. She
seemed bent on having every man in
the place in love with her, if that were
possible.
When Arline and Ned had stolen by
the spot which sheltered Cherry and
her adorer, the young husband's heart
had missed a beat from sheer surprise.
Then he had found his whole body
tingling with some hugely, primitive
sensation. The blood pounded in the
back of his head to accompany his jeal
ously. Yes, Ned was plain, old-fashioned
jealous.
He tried to stifle his own ignoble
thoughts about his wife and his friend,
but at the time it seemed impossible
for him tto do so. So this was the
sort of girl his wife really was? No
doubt she had been kissed and been
made love to by innumerable men be
fore his turn came along. If not, why
had she not made some sort of protest
when Hamlen embraced her? A good
wife would have done so, without
doubt. And Arline had also seen there
was the rub. Now she would have a
very small opinion of a man like him
self. A man who could not hold his
wife after a few short months of mat
rimony. In turn his heart and head
ached all the way back to the danc
ing. Arline was her gayest. She patted
his arm, and looked unutterable things
into his eyes bv the clear of the moon
as they walked. In every way she let
him know that she, too, had seen; also
that she felt an infinite tender pity for
his sorrow, plusa greater interest in
him besides. Clever Arline.
There was only one thing for Ned
tot do, after their discovery, and that
was to play the debonair Pierrot role
himself. Come what may, he refused
K- nnneiilarc a Vl ltshn nd - fOOled.

manly knowledge of masculine psy
chology entirely. Arline had noticed
his start of horror as his eyes had fas
tened on Cherry in the arms of anoth
er man, also the gone look in his eyes
when he had turned to answer some
question of hers, after they had left
the erring couple far behind.
And Arline felt strangely elated af
ter the incident. Life seemed smiling
and quite possible once more. .And Ned
was now at his best to her way of
thinking. Gay, charming and very,
very attentive to her in every way.
She fairly gurgrled for joy when he
suddenly pulled her roughly to him,
murmuring in her ear, closely, with a
flushed face:
"I want to dance this with you, Arle,
with you only!" A thrill shot through
the girl at his words, for he had called
her by his old pet name, the name of
long ago.

There's no reason why a person
should take sickening, salivating calo
mel, when a few cents buys a large
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone a per
fect substitute for calomel.
It is a pleasant, vegetable liquid
which will start your liver just as
surely as calomel, but it doesn't make
you s-ick and can not salivate.
Children and grown folks can take
Dodson's Liver Tone, because it is
perfectly harmless.
Calomel is a dangerous drug. Tt js
mercury and attacks your bones. Take
a dose of nasty calomel today and you
will feel weak, sick and nauseated to
morrow. Don't lose a day's work. Take
a spoonful of DodaOn L'ver Tone in
stead and you win wake up feeling
great. No more biliousness, constipa
tion, sluggishness, headache, coated
tongue or sour stomach. Your drug
gist nays if you do-Vt find Dodson's
Liver Tone acts beV.er than horrib-e
calomel your money is waiting for you.
They tell me what shows I may gOi
to,
What movies I may safely see.
I may kiss mv wife just so often in
life
The microbes are measured for
me.
They say when and where I may
travel,
And what hungry Turks I must
feed.
I'm a traitorous jay if I happen to
say
That my liberty's going to seed.
My life, it is all regulated.
I'm indexed and live by the card.
Officials must know how my radishes
grow
And how many hens in my yard.
For all the scholastic restrictions
Fix blood pressure, hail, rain and
snow.
If I yell they tell me I can go to
well, They tell me right where I can
go.
In the world-wide strife between na
ture and art, art falls down badly in
one secetion. It has never yet pro
duced a show-window wax lady who is
one half as attractive as the real live
ones outside who stand looking at her
and wishing- they had her opportunity
to wear those gowns.
After looking at one of these blush
ing waxen beauties, in fact the most
beautiful of the flock, we can turn
around, see an ordinary third-row bur
lesque flapper go by and still find our
self able to exclaim, "Ain't nature won
derful!" WinTTLIN'.
We had a secret me and' Jim
We pledged afore they buried him. v
Some folks thought I was heartless,
too.
But I didn't care s long's Jim knew.
My two other brothers, "Sam" an'
"Hal,"
They were all right, but Jim was my
pal.
We'd sit on an old fence, me and
Jim,
Just "chew-in the rag" an' whit
tlhV. Then folks used to say that was all I
could do,
Guess they don't know I was thinkin
too.
Jim made me promise I would not
cry,
So folks 'found me whitlin' when Jim
went by!
