Mister Tingaling Can't Believe His Ears, "We muet go and collect Mister Beaver's rent next," sald Mister Tingaling. "I completely forgot about it when I made my last trip to Ripple Creek." "We'll have to put on our swim- ming clothes then, won't we?" said Nick. "You know better than that, Nick, "said the fairyman landlord. "Even it we do have to go under water to get there, we can't get wet with so much magic along." "I know, Mster Tingaling," Nick. "I was only joking." "Well, then, let's De going," sald Mister Tingaling. Tt wasn't more than five minutes and fifteen seconds before 'he Twins and the little fairyman found thems selves in the underground hallway of the Beaver Warren.

Waddell It was a big house made of sticks and mud, with a rounded roof. In- side, it was pretty dark, but glow- worm lamps made it Jook very cozy and homelike. There were Grandma and Grand- pa Beaver, sitting on splint chairs and dozing comfortably. And there were the Beaver ohil- dren playing tag with their little flat tails, all over the place. And there was Papa Beaver whit- tling some sticks with his sharp teeth to get the bark off for soup. And there was Mama Beaver cook- ing dinner, or supper, or whatever it is that beavers have at night. "Come might in and make your- selves at home!" eaid Mrs. Beaver hospitably, when she saw them."

Really it waen't two minutes be- fore Mrs. Beaver had each person feeling as though he or she was the finest person om earth. In about three minutes Mister Tingaling was saying, "I came to see if there was anything I could do to fix up your house a little nicer, Mrs. Beaver." "Oh, no! No indeed!" sald Mrs. Beaver. "You don't need to do a thing for us, Mister Landlord. Our rent 18 so low for this beautiful place, and everything Is so.'conven- fent, we couldn't think of asking you for anything." Nancy had moticed a bad place in the wall. "I think you need mew wall-paper," she said. "Oh, no," said Mrs. Beaver. "My husband will fix that up nicely with | a little glue." . "Wouldn't you Wke your floors painted?" asked Nick. "Goodness, no! They would only wear off again!" sald Mrs. Beaver. "Don't you meed your roof fixed, or your pipes mended or anything?" asked Mister Tingaling, with a be- | wildered look. "Not a thing," declared Mrs. Beaver. "Do we, Daddy Beaver?" "No, sir!" eald Mister Beaver, | "Not a thing, thank you. And here's your rent momey, Mister Landlord. It's little enough for euch a mice | house."

Now it re- turned to her. Ellen elaborately paid mo atten- tion to Judith, but the girl was too heavy In spirit even to know that she was being ignored. The only thing she was conscious of was the eternal vigilance of Caleb, and the hostile reminding Amelia gave her every time she came into the house. She was become so inured to misery that nothing eolSe seemed to exist in the world. # The weather cleared again, and now came the bright, dry heat of late summer. Lind went down one day to stand outside the fence and watch Jude where she drove up and" down the field on the binddr. The grain stood like stiff brown gold, and over it the heat moved in dazzl- ing waves, Judith went on aud on monotonously, not once turning to look at Lind. Not once, even, did the sun. But he doubled his in- dustry to make up for the time he had lost. Caleb, watching from the outside of the fence, drew his hand across his mustache and emiled. Martin knew his plare Judith's mood did henge with the g of Martin'iaco the fleid. [Amelia watched her narrowly, and felt that there was something un- natural about her attitude that did not grow out of the surveillance un- der which she 'was kept. She did not question her, however, fearing to rouse her from her stupor to great- er tempestuousness than she had yet shown. It might 'be, too, that her terror of Caleb's threat had had a last effect. Amelia did not forget to remind her of it every day. One evening Ellen, driving home from Yellow Post, saw an Indian on a pgpy riding south on the road that led past the Brumds" and Ericksons' northward into thé wild bush coun- try and beyond that to the land of myriad lakes and rivers where men went to lose themselves from the world. She recognized the Indian. He was the son of John Tobacco, and he had been spending the summer in that region. On his way home he must have met Malcolm, and talked with him. She tummed her head and watched him until he was out of sight. « When she could no longer see him her throat tightened and her lids winked rapidly behind her glasses, with Malcolm. Now even that mo- ment was gone. She raised her eyes and could see dimly the white clothes (fluttering on the dine in the yard at e.

On a night of high wind, Anton Klovacz died: Mark went the mext day to Yellow Post to arrange with Johanneson about the burial, and Caleb Gare was notitied in a message sent by a halfbreed to come to a ;meetilg in the church.

Mrs. Sandbo and Lind were there with the ldren, who were sitting about kitchen in great- eyed terror. The door to the other room was closed. Behind it Jay the body of Anton Klovacz. Mrs. Sandbo had washed and dressed him, telling Idind between her sobs that it was the tenth time that she had "lad out" since she had come to Oeland. Anton had died in peace. The in spector had come the day before and head gone over the place, and papers were signed which made him sole owner of the land to which he had given the last glow of his spirit.
