As she urged Toby across the field behind the Puttscs' barn, she saw an automobile jtanding at the door of the farm- house. Ellen slipped from the horsc'i back, and approached the house on foot. AJthough the day was chilly, the door wag ajar. Within was a babel •f voices. Mrs. Putts was expostu- kting hysterically, and several chil- dren were crying. Ellc;. caught a (rlimpsc of a stalwart man with * ciifar between his teeth and his hat tilted rakishiy over his ear. '•That's all right, mn'am." The deep voice sounde(' compellingly â- bove the shrill tumult. "I'm sent l)y the government to take the surplus that ain't allowed a family the size of yours. And I've got orders to place under arrest anybody that of- fers resistance." The nimble of that deep v';i'.S had | a peculiar effect on Ellen. She had' planned to confront the man and to inform him that she had seen through his little scheme. She had not count- ed on his beins quite .so broad across the shoulders. The idea of walking up to him and telling him that he was an impostor did not appeal to her, and, moreover, it would do no Cood. That big, brutal man, looming so large in .Mrs. Putt.s's little kitchen, would take whatever he wanted, in spite of Mrs. Pults's tears and her own accusations. i Ellen turned and lookt'<l at the ma- chine. It was a touring car. of the same make as Arnold's, she thought. The rear wa.s filled w.itli tho results of the day's collection. BiUn ap- proached near enough to see a basket filled with jars that had come from her own hou.-'f. She read in her own haniiwriliiig the words, "Plum mar- malade." Her anger dispelled her misgivings and stiffened her courage. Plum mar- malade! They had been saving it for very upecial occasions, like Thanks- givinc: and Christmas! \ WiJking to the front of the ma- ' chine she begun to crank it. She was thankful for the turmoil in the kit- \ chen. Mrs. Putts was holding out' gallantly. Toby, (Topping the scant crass, paused to look incjuiringly at his young mistre.-i.s. The engine be- gan to throb like a big heart, but it did not beat so fa«t as K I leu's. As she went by Toby she gave him a cut with the wh'p. The animal Jumped aside, snortc^i, suddenly real- ized that he was free, and started for liome. Shaking from head to foot, Ellen climl)ed into the automobile. Fortunately, it was facing the road, for she could not possibly have turn- ed it; but she knew how to start it, and she did. All of the controls and pedals were identically the same as in Arnold's car. , When she had almost reached the highway nhe heard a stentorian shout behind her. To the start it gave her EUen attributed her collision with the wooden post of Mr. Putts's fence. She left the post wrecked a-s she sped on her way. There was a terrible uproar back in the Puttses' yard; children were screaming, dogs burking, and a man's voice was roaring hoarsely, "Stop, or I'll fire!" There was nothing about the voice that made V.Wan deuire an interview with its owner. Instead she said to herself, "Now, what ^was it Arnold â- a.<d i must do if I wanted to go faster?" After a minute she remem- fresh air deeply. Sunlight is healing. breathing long Let and Suspicious Natures. it I hered, and the little car skimmed along the highway at a very credit- able rate of speed. The noise behind her grew faint. She did not look back, for Arnold had told her that that was an inexcusable offense in a motorist, but she knew that the hurrying figures about the farmhouse must be dwindling rapidly. If the man with the button had kept his word and fired, his aim had not been tyie. Klleh's destination was the town ten miles away. As she approached it she began to meet vehicles, but she was relieved as well as surprised to find that, instead of insisting that she should observe the traffic regulations, they showed the utmost willingness to take to the gutter and give her the entire road. Absorbed as she was in her task, she vaguely realized that the drivers of those vehicles seemed immensely interested in her perform- ance. ' * Once inside the limits of the town^ she slowed down. Progress of any sort was becoming difficult, for there were many carriages and automobiles going apparently in all directions. The presence of pedestrians, too, was terribly confusing. In trying to avoid a couple who undertook to cross the street in the wrong place, Ellen nar- rowly avoided a cO'lUsion with a gro- cer's wagon, the driver of which yell- ed at her angrily. But at last she rcache<I the goal she had set for herself â€" the low brick building adorned with a gilt sign that informed the public that it was the police station. j The chief of police was sitting back comfortably in his swivel chair, when an automobile .stopped in fiont of the building. But it did not stop (luite so soon as it should have done; it bumped a telephone polo, and the driver went out sprawling. The chief of police jumped from his chair and hurried to the scene as Ellen was picking herself up. "Are you hurt?" he inquired. "No. Not a bit." "I guess I'll have to arrcsi you for careless rlriving." His tone was less genial. j "I was as careful its 1 knew how to' be." i "Where's your operator's license?"; "Iâ€" I haven't any." I "H'm! Looks like I should have to arrest you for that, too. Hello!" The chief of police looked at Ellen as if he were expecting her to explain something. ] "Well?" she asked resignedly. i "You haven't got any numbers on this car. I suppose you know that's an offense in the eyes of the law." "This isn't my car. I just took it.". Evidently the chief of police was unaccustomed to such frankness in criminals. lie relieved his mind by a long whistle. "I took it because I thought the^ man was an impostor," Ellen explain-' ed. "And I came right here as quick-. ly as I could because I was sure you'd; know the best thing to do." i "Well, well, come inside and let's hear about it." The chief of police was only human. His manner show- ed a marked unbending. After Ellen had told her story there was no more talk of arresiting her. "I'hc chief of police agreed entirely with her point of view. "He may have done it just to dis- j courage folks, so there wouldn't be I so much preserving and canning next ' year," he said.
