Lillian rushed at me with charac teristic Impetuosity as Dicky ushered her into the room. Dicky had the smaller hags and behind him wna tho taxi driver, laden with suit cases. But Lillian carried several small par cels which I guessed she feared to Intrust to the proverbial carelessness of masculine hands, and despite her apparent haste, she managed to de posit them safely upon the table be fore she swept me Into her arms. "Oh! It’s good! good! to see you again,” she ejaculated, embracing me warmly. "Let’s have a look at you!" She held me off at arm’s length, In spected me gravely. “How do you do It, Madge? Your’re prettier every time I see you. And you have the color no rouge pot can paint.” She hummed the atrocious parody tunefully, and Dicky struck In with ] a provoking grin. "That’s not natural color, ear heart, that’s the flush of righteous anger mantling her fair cheek. I just smashed 30 or 40 cents' worth of glass and cold cream tubes In the bedroom, trying to get out a collar from the gimeracks.- and her re pressed emotions are making her apoplectic.” Lillian shot an Inquiring slgnlfl <ant glance at me. I was filled with mischief, and I prepared to play up to anything she might say. BRANDEIS STORE WHITEMAN IS BACK!

You’ll Be Pleased "I hope those antique things 1 picked up for you In the Italian quar ter weren't among them,'* she said solicitously. "I am afraid they were," I replied dolefully with an inward grin at the remembrance of the Inexpensive, easily replaced, but oddly attractive little dishes to which she referred. . "Then I thank you for the high value you are pleased to place upon my gifts," Lillian threw this over her shoulder to Dicky, whose face lengthened ludicrously. “Oh! I say, LIU, honest, were they gifts from you? I'm mighty sorry. Can’t they bo dupllcatid? Madge, where did you put the pieces? I’ll spend nli my waking hours In those shops down there.” ’’They’re In the waste basket In the kitchen,” I said coldly, for the con trust between his Indifference to the breakage when he thought I only was concerned and his present solicitude was enough to chill the tones of any wife’s voice. I wonder If most mar ried women have the experience of I hearing courteous language spoken to everyone else except themselves. To do Dicky Justice, however, he !• the soul of courtesy to me when he Is In a good humor. But I notice that no matter how angry he may be, he is able to control his temper If someone like Lillian, whose opinion he values, happens In. Dicky started toward the door with the evident Intention of searching for the pieces. But with a patent second thought, he whirled quickly, and caught the delighted smirk on Lillian's face, and its slower reflection on my own. "I thought so,” he said. ”1 Just happened to remember the teamwork which you two think so neat. But your Uncle Kphralm was Just a leetle bit too quick on the draw for you just a leetle bit too quick.” Lillian surveyed him coolly with hands set lightly at her sides. "The trouble with you Dicky bird,’ she began, but what else she said 1 did not hear, for Marlon’s soft voice sounded close to me. "Don't you think I've waited long enough for a hug, Auntie Madge?” I swept Lillian’s adorable young daughter Into my nrmr. and hugged her with enthusiasm. "I'll answer your first question be fore you ask It," I told her when I had released her. "Junior Is all right. He had a bad attack of croup, while I was home, but he was better before I came back, and a telephone from the farm this morning told me he was quite himself again.” Oh! I'm so glad—he's better. I mean,”—she amended with pretty , childish confusion. “I can hardly ’ wait until I see hm. I've brought him some' things, too." She Indicated the packages sne ana tier mother had carried with so much care, and was untying one of the strings when Lillian stopped her. "Don’t do that now, sweetheart," she said and then turned to me re provingly. "What's this the Dicky bird's cheeping concerning the arrival of the Braithwaite* in an hour? Why on earth didn't you tell me? I had planned to go out to the farm In the morning, anyway, and we'll Just cal! a taxi and vamoose over to a hotel for the night."_ ^wiriai/AfiatncJUgo rw*'*_ -- - .... .. - - i ■ 1 .1—„—— <^Y~)D Good Merchandise and the Truth About it FRIDAY NEWS . from the Store of Service -- -- ■ 1 --- -1 Millinery—A Break in Price Our Entire Stock of Expensive Models Offered Friday without res ervation.
