The Raggedies "Do you know. Mister "Wolf." Raggedy Ann exclaimed as she watched the wolf help everybody to lco cream sodas and cream puffs and ladvflngers before he took any himself. "I thought maybe you Xvere a naughty, mean, bad wolf when I first saw you run up to little Red Riding Hood." "Dear me, I’m glad you do not think so now,” laughed the wolf. "But whatever made you think so ill of me. Raggedy Ann?” "Because,"' said Raggedy Ann, "in the story of little Red Riding Hood, you were very wicked.” "Now,” laughed Mister Wolf as he slapped his knees,- "whoever told that story about me was mistaken, for I really am not wicked even a little teeny weeny bit. Maybe it was some other wolf.” "No, it must have been you,” Raggedy Ann replied, “because you are in the story of little Red Riding Hood, Just like the Three Bears are in the story of Goldielocks. and were not exactly wicked, but they chased Goldielocks.” “There, you 6ee,” the wolf laughed toward the three bears, “someone must have turned the stories inside out.” "I guess maybe they did,” laughed Raggedy Andy. “Can you tell us bow the story of Red Riding Hood should go?” “Suppose we let little Red Riding Hood tell it,” laughed the wolf as he lit his pipe and leaned back against a tree. “Whenever I went to visit grandmother,” little Red Riding Hood said, “mother always said to me. ‘Now watch out when you go through the woods that the Grung doesn't try to take the basket of goodies from you.’ ” “What is a Grung?” asked the Puzzywump. “I nevr have seen one!”
f '
“THERE! YOU SEE?” THE WOLF LAUGHED. “The Grung is a great big creature,” Little Red Riding H--ed replied, “and he Is very, very fond of goodies. He has four legs and a long taiL So when I walked through the woods the first day, sure enough the Grung came up to me and said; ‘Ha! Ha!’ just like that. ‘l'll bet a nickel you’ve got goodies in that little basket, Little Red Riding Hood!’ And I said, "Yes, sir, I have and they are for Grandmother, who is ill.’ ” ” ‘Then I will eat the goodies,' said the Grung, as be reached for sny little basket. I am sure the Grung would havs taken the goodies right then if the wolf had not stepped between us and said: ’Here, you. Mister Grung! Now you had better leave Little Red Riding Hood and her basket of goodies alone.’ “ 'Who's afraid of you?’ asked the Grung, as he made his ears stick up straight in the air. Little Red Riding Hood went on to explain about the Grung to Raggedy Ann and the three Bears. “You know the Grung sticks his ears up in the air when be wants to fight, so that he won’t 3tep on them. And when he did this Mister Wolf he just boxed the Grung’s ears so hard it made the Grung’s head ring like a door bell. Then Mister Wolf he tied six knots in the Grung’s long tail and carried me to Grandmother’s house. ’lt will take the Grung all day to untie the knots in bis tail,’ the Wolf said.” “And didn’t the Grung ever bother you after that?’ ’asked Raggedy Ann. “Indeed he did not!” laughed Little Red Riding Hood. “Mister Wolf taught him a lesson he never forgot. I guess.”—Copyright, 1922, by Johnny Gruelle.
FASHION HINTS Bp HEDDA HOYT For the United Press NEW YORK.—The newest dresses have skirts that are draped tightly about the figure, and caught at the left side by an ornament or buckle, from which long draperies hang almost to the floor. • • • Black lace over silver cloth or over old gold metallic cloth promises to be one of the .foremost dancing types for winter. • • • Knitted one-piece bathing suits cut very much like the men's suits, with a white belt about the waist, are seen more than any other style on the beaches about New York. Either the wool must shrink considerably after it hits the water or these suits are made extremely short, for one is at first shocked and then amused at sheiy-audacity.

“Ma-ks, take Gray into the drawing room," Miles ordered.—" Farrell, roll up the right sleeve of the man who calls himself Andrew Drake and take off the bandage." A grasping cry came from Jerusha but Miss Hawks moaned: "That was what deceived me so thoroughly when he was putting on his coat out in the garden the first day I called!” The pseudo-Andrew set his teeth but he made no show of resistance when the bandage was removed and on the still inflamed surface of his arm appeared the blurred, intertwined letters ”H” and “O.” “You thought they were your own initials, did you not. Miss Hawks?” Miles asked gently. “Forgive me for reopening an old wound, but that touch of sentiment for a time blinded you to certain inconsistencies which the Drake family themselves had failed to note?” She nodded dumbly in an obvious effort to control her emotion and the detective went on: “In reality the initials are his own, as far as the police records of Australia show. His name Is Hugh Osborne and he, too. Is badly wanted but not for the same crime as his present accomplice. Will you tell Mr. Wells and your old friends here when the first doubt of his identity entered your mind?” “I called here yesterday, but as I grew reminiscent and he betrayed an utter ignorance of the incidents I mentioned a wild suspicion came into my mind. I spoke of my initials on his arm and though he swore that he had had them tattooed there in remembrance of me I was still unconvinced. I felt that I must be going mad and yet I had to make sure. I laid a deliberate trap for him and he fell into ltt Miss Hawks rose. "Now may I go? I came as I promised, but I—l can endure no more. Jerusha, forgive me, but surely it is better that you know the truth.” “The truth is always best, Ora.” Miss Drake rose and a stern, Spartan gravity had robbed her set features of all other emotion. “Tonight shall see the end of more than one living lie!" John Wells escorted the trembling woman to her waiting car and scarcely had the attorney reappeared when the imposter broke out with an oath. "You’re right it will, Miss Jerusha Drake! Lord, what a six months I’ve put in, in this pious, hypocritical household!—Why, you're all worse crooks than me, every one of you, and I’ve got the goods on you! We could have fixed this little matter up friendly all 'round if you'd been sensible, but as it is I’ve my own story to tell, and by G —d, I'll tell it!" Miles did not look at Scottie, but seated himself with a laugh. “Going to try to stick to that farfetched blackmailing scheme you and that precious partner of yours hatched when you found that Andrew Drake had left relatives here with money and a social position to lose?” he asked easily. “Farrell, you can join Marks and his man till I call you. Mr. Wells, listen to this for the wildest cock-and-bull yarn that two cheap crooks ever conceived! Mr. Hugh Osborne, here, is wanted in Victoria for blackmail and forgery now. He won’t be extradited until he has been tried and served his terms here for fraud, attempted blackmail, attempted abduction of Miss Patricia and several other little items growing out of this case if Mr. Hobart Drake wishes to prefer the charges. How the private papers and letters of the real Andrew Drake came into the possession of Hugh Osborne $3 a question which the next official cable will answer.” “Oh, you needn’t wait for that!” Osborne remarked sullenly. “Andy anti I were friends. He was taken down with the fever and I nursed him till the end. but before he died he left me everything. It was all fixed up legal and proper by his own wish and I can prove it, though there was a little enough to leave, for the sheep ranch was a wretched failure, and he’d been too proud to write the truth home. Before he died, too, when the
delirium was on him, he told me how he and his brothers had flooded the country here with counterfeit bills long ago, but It's God's truth I never meant to make use of that then. When I fell in with Gray In Melbourne about a year and a half ago, I remembered how much I looked like Andy, and Gray and I—well, we saw there was a good thing in it.” “So Gray came on here ahead and for a year paved the way by getting in with Mr. Roger Drake and then you appeared as Andrew and a few weeks ago you began to work secretely with your accomplice to terrorize the family while yourself pre-
A GASPING CRY CAME FROM JERUSHA. tending to be a victim as well!” Miles declared. “You knew you couldn’t got away with that accusation of counterfeiting If it came to a showdown, for the ravings of a man in delirium wouldn't be taken seriously, but you and Gray knew too, that If you forced the men of the family by anonymous threats of notoriety to commit ridiculous public acts you could soon put the screws on them for money and increase your demands until you had bled them white.” CHAPTER XIX “What was the first thing put you on the right track, Owen lad?” Scottie puffed contentedly on his pipe. “I think it was Andrew himself,” Miles responded. “It struck me as odd in my first talk with Wells and little Miss Patricia that Hobart and Roger should both have made public exhibitions of themselves, but Andrew’s fit of supposed insanity took place safe at home, for the benefit of one of the servants alone. “When I had made up my mind that insanity played no part in the strange events the only alternative to consider was blackmail, and it must have been for some indiscretion or even crime committed in the far past. Right then the solution was in my for you had learned that in their youth Roger had been interested in chemistry, dyeing and in photography, that Hobart was a pen-and-ink artist and Andrew had worked for a time in a pulp manufacturing plant The old chest of metal junk which we carted away from under the floor of the summer house and destroyed the morning after we wound up the case, Scottie, did not contain the remains of a printing press, as you surmised, but the relic of a machine for making a replica of the silk threaded paper the Government uses for genuine greenbacks and had been on original Invention of the real Andrew. “It didn't come to me even then that the truth was staring me In the face until you brought me that 820bill Rip got knifed over and I found it was counterfeit. It was scorched at one end, and knowing that Rip must have found it somewhere 1 concluded that it had been the dustheap where Miss Drake must have thrown it among the ashes which she cleaned out of the drawing-room fireplace after I had seen her burning something there at midnight. “I recalled her words: 'Ashes, every one.

Corn Soup By BERTHA. E. SHAPLEIOH Cooking Authority for NEA Service and Columbia VniverHty. 1 can or 1 pint corn % teaspoon pepper 1 small onion (grated) 2 tablespoons butter Avery small piece bay leaf 2 tablespoons flour 1 teaspoon salt 1 quart milk If canned corn is used rub it through a coarse sieve and add it to the milk With the onion and seasonings. Cook twenty minutes in a double boiler, or over boiling water. Cream the butter and flour together and add to milk. Cook ten minutes, season to taste and serve. Toasted crackers are a good accompaniment. In winter popped corn Is good, either added as each plate Is filled or passed. If green corn, cut from the cob, is used, add to one cup of water and cook ten minutes. Then proceed as with the canned corn. The corn left after straining the soup may be used for fritters. (Cut this out and paste It in your cook boob.)
would not have descended upon us. She had known from the start what her brothers were doing. None of her brothers know until just before the explosion came that she had been wise all the time; :hey thought she believed that mythical tale of an inheritance and I could kick myself for accepting it without verification, but Wells had taken it for granted and so did 1!” “It's no worse than me!” Scottie remarked consolingly. “Why didn’t I see that tatoo mark on Andrew’s arm when he took off his coat there in the garden just before Miss Hawks appeared? To be sure, my back was to him but I was there to keep my eyes on him and everybody. How did you first guess that the Hawks woman knew Andrew for an Impostor?” "I happened to be In the hall when she ran out of the house like a madwoman after a tete-a-tete with Andrew and the next minute he upset the table and scalded his arm. It wasn't a bad burp, and It occurred to me that It was just an excuse for a bandage!” Miles’ face sobered. "Gray was the real brains of the scheme. It was he who wrote that devilishly satirical lecture and forced poor Roger by annoymous threats to doliver it; he who wrote the other anonymous letters, one of which he slipped into the house by means of a French window which Andrew had left open for him and left on the hall table the night of my arrival to be mixed with the mall next morning, when I concluded it was some member of the household. He disguised his voice for the telephone threats which so agitated the family, but he cannot figure out how Roger Drake penetratod his habitual disguise.”
"Roger did, then?” asked the other. "Oh. yes. It was the shock of that which caused h!s stroke. “Gray had a sort of half-labora-tory back of his cottage and he was puttering about In It when Roger called. Just as he approachced, Gary removed his wig—and Roger saw that the elderly naturalist was really a young man In disguise. The logical reason for It came over him with a rush and his only thought was to get home and warn his brothers, but he was stricken with the word unuttered upon his lips.’ Miles rose. “That pa. rus was curious, wasn't It?” "It was an example of remarkably poor judgment on Roger's part, picture writing or no. if It was as you sold, a complete record of the way they made their counterfeit money,’’ remarked Scottie. “It was more than that, an example of the Drake conscience working overtime,” replied Miles. "Roger had designed It In the nature of a confession and meant to leave it on his death to h‘s intimate friend, Professor Masterson, though when Osborne ransacked the storeroom he hoped to find something more tangible." "There Is one thing that still is dark to me.” Scottie pulled at hia pipe, and finding It dead laid It on the manteL “How did Osborne and his confederate know that the paper making machine was burled under the summer house?" "They only knew it was hidden somewhere, for the real Andrew must have talked a bit more in his dying ravings than Osborne told and I fancy they hoped to find the whole paraphernalia so that they could make some more of the queer and shove It themselves.” The End.
Social Activities Black and gold, the sorority colors, were used throughout the decorations for the party which Kappa Alpha Theta gave Wednesday afternoon at the home of Miss Leora Floyd on Park Ave. Members of the chapter In pansy costumes gave a stunt during which nosegays of pansies and rosebuds tied with black and gold bows were given to the guests.

Shoes for Camping One thing the camper must bear in mind Is that a great deal of the success of the trip depends upon being n-eperly shod.

Boy Scout shoes are Ideal for rough wear, although they might be too heavy for the tenderfoot. Turquoise Turquo se rriatr x beads are very popular and may challenge the pop 1,.,... iiy of jade. They are particularly lovely when worn by a blond.

SEEKS ELECTION IN m PLANKS Woman Member of British Parliament Puts Prohibition in Platform. By EE A Service LONDON —Keep London’s policewomen on the job. Enable wives to gain divorces on the same grounds their husbands can. Bring about prohibition gradually. That’s the triple-planked platform of Mrs. M. Wintringham, only Brit-Ish-born woman member of Parliament, who with Lady Astor, Ameri-can-born M. P., makes up the whole parliamentary femlnina contingent. Mrs. Wintringham is slightly above medium height, well-rounded, well-i groomed, and gentle. She makes no gestures. Save for the narrow, white crepe de chine collar and cuffs, she was dressed all in black as she is still In mourning for her husband. The hair that escapes from under her small, heavily veiled hat curls slightly, and the face under it is comfortable and capable looking. Mrs. Wintringham, who was prominent in the w'ork for woman suffrage several years ago, entered Parliament last October, succeeding her husband who died In office. Marriage ala Mode The weeks preceding her ma> , riage are usually full of social ' functions for the American bride, but not s~ for the brides In some parts of China. Sometimes for weeks before • their marriage they are absolutely Isolated from any society. Often they are not permitted to see their prospective husbands between the time of the betrothal and the wedding day. Headgear Outdoors The soft crowned khaki colored hat with the turned-up brim goes nicely with the outing suit as the brim may be turned down to ward off the sun. Lately the khaki bandana, figured in brown and red. has found favor with automob.le tourists as it holds the hair in place besides being attractive when wrapped about the head and tied in a loose-end knot.
