So Fairy returned once more, and soon after Prudence tapped on the door. Then she opened It, and thrust her curly head inside. "Wouldn't you like a little nice, hot oyster stew?" she chirped methodically. And Fairy said, "Oh, yes, Indeed, Prudence-this is so nice of you." The three gathered sociably about the table. Babble was first. to taste the steaming stew. He gasped, and gulped, and swallowed some water with more haste than grace. Then.he toyed idly with spoon and wafer until Prudence tasted also. Pr'udence did not gasp. She did not cry out. She looked up at her sister with wide eyes, -a world of pathos in the glance. But Fairy did not notice. "Now, please do not ask me to talk until I have finished my soup," she was saying brightly. Then she tasted it! She dropped her spoon with a great clatter, and jumped up from the table. "Mercy !" she shrieked. "It is poisoned !" Babble lened back in his chair and laughed until his eyes were wet. Pru dence's eyes were wet, too, but not from laughter! What would etiquette think of her, after this? "What did you do to this soup, Pru dence?" demanded Fairy. "I made it-nothing else," faltered poor Prudence, quite crushed by this blow. And oysters forty cents a pint! "It's pepper, I think," gasped Bab ble. "My insides hear startling testi mony to the presence of pepper." And he roared again, while Prudence began a critical examination of the oysters. She found them literally stuffed with pepper: there was no doubt of It. The twins hiad done dead ly work I "ltevenge, ye gods, how sweet," chanted Fairy. "The twins are get ting even with a vengeance-the stme twins you staid were adorable, Bubble." It must he said for F'airy that her good nature could stand aiiimost any thing. Even this did not seriously disturb her. ")o you supluIse you cnn find us solie milk, I're? And crack ers I I'm so fond of crackers and imilk, aren't you, Babble?" "Oh, I adore It. But serve a micro scope with It, please. I want to ex amine it for microbes before I taste." But Prudence did better than that. She made some delicious cocoa, and opened a can of pear preserves, donat ed to the parsonage by the amiable Mrs. Adams. The twins were very fond of pear preserves, and had been Iitloking forward to eating these on their approaching birthdlay. They were doomed to disaplpointment ! The three hud a merry little feast, after all, and their laughter rang out so often and so unrestrainedly that the twins shook in their beds with rage a1nd disap1)inntient. It speaks well for the courage of Btbbie, and the attractions of 'alry. 11ha1 he tnie to tie parsonage again a nl agiin. In time he became the iest of frimis with the twins them sIves, but he ailwniys olledt therm "rithe adlorables,"' and they never asked him11 why.

"Tit offense was against Fairy," said Prmumence, wit i a solemnity she did not feel, "and thlie reima'i.ti on must le dlone to her'.

"We must he0 sure to have all the scraps out of the way before Connie gets hotme," said Frudence, carefully fitting together pieces of a dark, warm, furry mnaterial. "It has been so long sInce father wore this coat, I am sure she will not recognize it." "But she will aSk where we got it, and what shall we say?" -"We must tell her it is goods we have had in the house for a long tIme. That Is true.

If the members would just pqy up we could get her one. No. veimber and December are such bad mooths for parsonage people. Every. one is getting ready for Christmas now. and forgets that parsonage people need Chrintmas money, too." Fah-ry took a pin from her mouth. "I have honestly been ashamed of Connie the last few Sundays. It was so cold, and she wore'only that little thin sum mner jacket. Shte must have beeh~ half frozen." "Oh, I had her dressed warmly un derneathm, very warmly Indeed," de daread Prudnce. "But no matter hmw ci)T if lirefn't youbypreiared 'r winter weather. I kept hoping enough money would. come in to buy her a coat for once in her life." -one nas been looking forward to [ne long enough,". put in Fairy. "This will be a bitter blow to her. And yet It Is not such a bad-looking coat, after all." And she quickly ran up a seam on the machine. "Here comes Connie I" Prudence hastily swept a pile of scraps out of sight, and turned to greet her little sister with a cheery smile. "Come on in, Connie," she cried, with a brightness she did not feel. "Fairy and I are making you a new coat. Isn't it pretty? And so warm See the nice velvet collar and cuffs. We want to fit it on you right away, dear." Connie picked up a piece of the goods and examined it intently. "Don't you want some fudge, Con nie?" exclaimed Fairy, shoving the dish toward her hurriedly. Connie took a piece from the plate, and thrust it between her teeth. Her eyes were still fastened upon the brown furry cloth. "Where did you get this stuff?" she inquired, as soon as she was able to speak. "Out of ' , trunk in the garret, Con nie. Don't you want some more fudge? I put a lot of nuts in, especially on your account." "It's good," said Connie, taking an other piece. She examined the cloth very closely. "Say, Prudence, isn't this that old brown coat of father's?" Fairy shoved her chair back from the machine, and ran to the window. "Look, Prue," she cried. "Isn't that Mrs. Adams coming this way? I won der-" "No, it isn't," 'answered Connie gravely. "It's just Miss Avery getting hlome from school.-Isn't it, Prudence? lFather's cont, I mean?" "Yes. Connie, it is," said Prudence, very, very gently. "Iut no one here has seen it, and it is such nice cloth just exactly what girls are wearing now." "flit I wanted a new coat !" Connie 1i not cry. Sbe stood looking at I'r dence with her wide hurt eyes. "Oh, Connie, I'm just as sorry as you are," cried Prudence, with starting tears. "I know just how you feel about it den rest ! But the people didn't pay father up last month. Maybe after Christmas we can get you a coat. They pay up better then." "I think I'd rather wear my summner coat until then," said Connie soberly. "Oh, but you can't, dearest. It is too cold. Won't you be a good girl now, and not make sister feel badly about it? It really Is becoming to you, and it is nice and warm. Take some more fudge, dear, a.nd run out-of-doors a while. You'll feel better about it. pres eitly, I'ml sure." Connie stood solemnl beside the r$1. 0" / ThV eto alClf1 elu Vym d an/ e Evr /sz .

"If I am not back when the twins get home, go right on and oat without me. I'll come back when I -get things straightened out in my mind."
