Ruth who had obeyed his command to look and who was taking a staggering uncertain step toward Jack Hayward framed In the opposite window and being forcibly restrained by another man from leaping through it thought at first that Borden's furious sentence was directed at her But Benny's voice from the doorway told her the truth "If you're hurting Miss Lester I'll — I'll—" Benny was eputtering his fists clenched "Get out and mind your own business! You too" Borden added viciously nodding furiously and gesticulating toward Jack Hay-war- d who was calling out some- voice thing in a "Sit down again Miss Lester" he added m&re normally "And keep if your confounded glasses on you're so crazy about them Where s that letter to my lawyer?"

Teach him to stay wnere lie belongs!" screamed Blackie the- Crow with whom Red- dy had so often quarreled--"Don- 't let him whin you! Fisrht Reddy!" shrieked Sammy Ja v on whom Reddy always had looked as one who delighted to see him in trouble It was just the same way with all the others— all were urging him on Jven Old Jed Thumper the big gray rabbit that Reddy so often had tried tp catch was jumping up and xldkn in the most excited way and begging him to fight harder It was very strange Reddy could not understand it You see he didn't realize that though these neighbors of his often quarreled with him and usually seemed glad to see him in trouble and called him bad names they still regarded him as one of themselves and were loyal to him and were ready and glad to take his part against an outsider a stranger who had no business there Loyalty is a Wry splendid thing isn't it? It is the thing that makes us forget! or at least put aside our private quarrels and stand by each otherj m times of groat trouble or danger Reddy didn't understand it then but heknew that he sound of their seemed to give him new strength and courage he snarled as he once more sprang at the stranger This time he got a hold that the : stranger couldn't break and Jie shook and worried and growledand fought with a fury Soon lie noticed tjhatrthe stranger 11 It etitlrpn-on urjib at tan vvu4i I nai ttf "Had enough?" growled Reddy "Will you leave and never come R jaHwawfedft! - s 10-da- to-teet- Pepsodent t'mrm lb her ask me for it make lier beg for it It's an outrage that I have to fork over 500 a month for her and the children The judge that made the award was a sentimental fool Three hundred would be mere than ample" Ruth's eyes looking very meek behind their spectacles did not falter however "Hadn't I better leave the door on the latch?
