This gun crew were preparing to mow them down at short range. He got so excited that he never once thought that he.was alone among enemies. He made sure that he had several hand grenades then began creeping along the ground as fast as lie could go toward the gun crew. They had their backs toward him and were very busy getting the, range, so they did not see him. "When near enough he threw a^borab right in Among them, and wli^n it burst, four of the gunners lay dead. He tossed in another.

"I owe it to Kenneth, and you shall not stop me," she replied with determination.

My astonishment must have showed painty on my fpee for she desisted for a moment from her efforts to button her skirt and faced me. "You do not for one instant believe that I would allow you to go out alone with thayman. do you?"

The light broke suddenly upon me. Aunt Tabttha planned to accompany me ti the fair. She was ready to die to prevent me from doing an indiscreet thing. "I am not quile sure that I shall go," I told her.

A DETERMINED OLD WOMAN. When I awoke next morning I could hear Aunt Tabitha hobbling about in the next room. I thought she needed me and slipping on a dressing gown, I hurried to her. She had a poker in one hand and a skirt in the other when I entered the riom.

going to Henrysville with Mi\ Appleby Do you not know that I was merelj trying to annoy you?"

The od woman flared up. "Annoy me, nothing! I suppose 1 can read peope's mi nils about a• well as the next one. and if you didn't intend to go to Henrysville this morning then my name isn't Tabitha Billing?.' "I .see that I shall have some diflfi culty convincing you, but nevertheless it is true." I replied somewhat stiffly "The trouble with you. Aunt Tabitha. is that you are just like everybody from the Michigan woods You haven't a sense of humor. You take yourself and life and everybody else, too seriously. If you would laugh two or three times a day you would get so that after a while that your skin would stand a little movement. As it is, you Michiganders would crack like a chapped lip if you ha'd to .smile." ""We Michiganders are all right," retorted Aunt Tabitha loyally. "We ad- i mit that we are not. accustomed to people's saying one thing when they mean another, and, even if we do not laugh loud a*ul !ong on slight provocation, that is no reason why we are n jt mirthful inside." 'VWhich means that an autopsy must be performed on oqe of you to ascertain if you have sfeen the point of a joke "Some jokes," corrected the old woman.

By that time -she had divested herself of her "Sunday' skirt, which I took to be evidence that she finally had come to believe me. "To tell you the truth, Roxane," she said with a sigh of relief, "I am vei%glad to escape that journey. It looked very formidable to me, but I had made up my mind to go if it killed me." "I believe you," I said. And again I patted her on the back. All at once I realized that I cared a great deal for 'hi* peculiar old woman.
