And Mr, Harbison with his beautiful courtesy tho really sincoro kind tried to patch up ono quarrel after another and failed. Ho roso superbly to tho occasion, and mado something that ho called n South American goulash, for luncheon although it was too salty, and every ono was thirsty tho rest of tho day, Delia was horrid, of course. Sho frpzo Jim until ho uald ho was going to sit In tho refrigerator and cool tho butter. Sho locked horsolf in tho dressing-room It had been assigned to mo, but that mado no difference to Delia and did her uallB, and took threo different baths, and rofiiBCd to como to tho tnblo, And at courso Jimmy was wild, and Bald sho would stnrvo. But I said, "Vory well, lot hor Htarvo. Not n tray shall leave my kitchen." It was n comfort to have hor shut up thcro anyhow: It post ponod tho tlmo whon sho would como face to faco with Flannlgan. Aunt Sollna got sick that day, as havo said. I was not so blttor ns the others; I did not say that I wished Bhn would die. Tho worst I ever wish od her was that sho might bo quite HI for Bomo time, and yot, when she be gnn to recover, she was dreadful to mo. Sho said for one thing, that It was tho hard-boiled eggs and the state of tho house that did It. And when said that tho grippe wns n gorm, sho rotorted that I had probably brought it to her on my clothing, You remember that Betty had draw tho nurse's slip, nnd how ploascd she had boon about it. Sho got up early tho morning of tho first day and mado herself a lawn cap and telephoned out for a white nurse's uniform that la of courso, for a whlto uniform for nurse. Sho really looked vory fetch Ing, and she went around all the morn ing with a rod cross on her slcovo and Saiht Cecilia expression, gathering up bottles of medicine most of It flesh reducer, which was pathetic, "and closing windows for fear of drafts. Sho refused to help with tho' house work, nnd looked qulto exalted) but by nftornoon it had palled ou her some what, and Bho and Mnx shook dice. Botty was ronlly pleased whon Aunt Scllna Bent for her. Sho took Iti a bottlo of cologno to batho hor brow, and wo all stood outsido tho door nnd listened. Betty tiptoed in In hor prof ty enp and apron, and wo heard her cautiously draw down the shades. "What aro yon doing that for?" Aunt Sollna demanded. "I llko tho light." "It's bad for your poor eyes," Betty's tone wns exactly tho proper bedside pitch, low nnd sugary. "'Swcot and low, awoot nnd low wind of the western Bea!,"Dnl hum med outsido. "Put up thoso wlndow-shndos!" Aunt Sollnn'H volco wns strong enough. What's In thnt bottlo?" Botty was atlll mild. Sho swished tc tho window nnd rnlsod tho shado. "I'm so sorry you nro III," sho said sympathetically. "This Is for your poor nchlng bond. Now closo your eyes nnd llo porfoctly stllC and I will cool your forehead." "Thcro'a nothing tho mntter with my head," Aunt Sollna rctortod. "And I havo not lost my facultloo; I am not a chlld(or a sick cow. If that's per fumery, tuke it out." Wo hoard Botty coming to the door, but thoro wnB no tlmo to got nwny. She had dropped her mask for a mln uto nnd was biting her Up, but when sho saw us Bho forced a smllo. "She's ill, poor dear," Bho sold. "II you pcoplo will go away, I can brliifl her around nil right. In two houra alio will oat out of my hand." "Ent a piece out of your hand," Ma'j scoffed in n whisper. Wo waltod n llttlo longer, but It wnt too pulnful. Aunt Scllna demanded n mtiBtard foot bath and n hot lcmonadii and hor back rubbed with llnlmoul and soiuo strong blnck tea. And In tho Intervals sho wanted to bo road to out of tho prayer-book. And when wo had all gono away, thoro camo thn most terrible nolao from Aunt Sellnn's room, nnd every ono ran. Wo found Dotty In tho hall outside tho door, cry ing, with hor fingers In hor ears and hor cap ovor hor oyo. Sho Baid alio had boon putting tho hot-water bottlo to Aunt Sellnn's back, and It had boon too hot. Just thon something hit against tho door with n soft thud, fell to tho floor and burst, for a trlcklo of hot wator camo ovor tho sill. "Sho won't lot mo hold hor hand," Botty walled, "or batho her brow, or smooth hor pillow. Sho thinks of nothing but her Btomach or her back! And whon I try to mako her bed look dacont, sho spits nt mo liko a cat Everything I do Is wrong. Sho spilled tho foot-bath Into her shoos, and blam ed ino for it" It took tho united efforts of all of us except Bella,, who stood back and Bmllod nastily to got Botty back into tho sick-room again. I wns supremely thankful by that tlmo that I had not drawn tho nurso's slip. With dinner ordered In from ono of tho clubs, and thu omolot ten hours behind me, my position did not socm bo unbearable, But a now development wna coming, Whllo Botty was fussing with Aunl Sollna, Max led a search of tho house Ho said tho necklaco and tho brncolot must bo hidden somewhoro, and that no crovlco was too srrinll to neglect. Wo mado a formal search nil to gether, except Botty and Aunt Sollna, and we found n lot of things In differ; out plncos that Jim said had boon missing fllnco tho year one. But no Jewels nothing even Buggostlng a Jowol wnB found. Wo had explored tho entire houso, overy cupboard, every chest, oven tho Insldes of tho couchea and tho pockets of Jlm'H clothos which ho resented bitterly and found nothing, nnd I must say the situation was growing rather strained. Soma ono had taken tho Jewels; they hndn't walked away. It waa Flannlgan who suggested the roof, nnd ns wo had tried ovory place olso, wo climbed there. Of courso wa didn't find anything, but nftcr nil day in tho houso with tho abutters closed on account of roportrfl, tho air wna glorious.
