I found Marion and Junior finishing their breakfast in the dining room with a distinctly sulky Katie waiting upon them. I wondered what had gone amiss with my faithful little maid, whose delight it generally Is to care for the children, but I did not hav|-to wait long for information on the subject. Katie drew me aside into the kitchen and aired her griev ance fully. "Vot you tink dot Meesls Durkee, she say I no can tell dose kids bout new hahee. I tink she got her nerve right mit her all fried on hot’ sides. I shoost could— I cut her short peremptorily. ■ That will do. Katie." I said se verely. You must not speak that way about Mrs. Durkee. Can’t you see that she wants to surprise the chil dren with the baby? How could she do that if you or anybody else told them about it beforehand'1" Katies balloon of pique collapsed instantly. "Oh, ees dot eet.? Vel, dot’s an udrier color pony, you bet your boots. Hut, oh, Meesis Graham?" she made a flying tackle and caught my skirts as I was moving away. "You sure f„ex eet so I dere ven Junior first see dot babee. Vnd me, niineself, I nefey, nefer see dot new babee al ready yet." "Well, Katie." T parried, disengag ing my gown, “considering that the child is only a few hours old—” "I no care eef it only in meenlts," she gurgled, her good humor miracu lously restored. "I vant to see *dot babee so bad, dot I tink I go bug house eef I vait mooch longer." Marion Adores Junior. Tfcere was something in her voice deeper than the voluble surface eagerness ‘which she was expressing so crassly. It was a note I had heard before in my little maid's voice, one that took me bark to a night of suf fering and terror when Katie s hopes of motherhood had been blasted. That dread experience had made my little housekeeper's heart very tender toward all children, and I knew that the roots of her passion ate, self-sacrificing devotion to Junior went down into a tiny grave in a dtstant cemetery. It was with sudden aoher tenderness that I turned to her. "You shall see the little new baby aa soon as the children do." 1 prom lsed h»r, then fairly ran away from the voluble thanks and endearments she began to shower upon me. Marion, with a grown-up air that sat prettily upon her, waa smooth ing Junior's hair, and adjusting his sailor suit which was the pride of his heart. “Isn't he just the sweetest thing, fThe Housewife’a Idea Box \ \—-/ , To Keep a Drain Pipe Clean Plan* rom* dry ly* at the opening wf a drain pip*.

(Copyright, l»n> Auntie Madge?" she asked, as she gave him a final approving pat. "But you mustn’t tell him so',’’ 1 smiled as I stopped to receive the kiss which mv small lads adorable mouth was offering me. Then with one hand in Junior's, I extended the other to Marlon. "Suppose we go up to see Oranzie again," I suggested, but before the words were fairly out of my mouth, the door opened and Alfred Durkee came In grinning broadly. "Oh, ho! So here you are!" he said, addressing the children. "I've been hunting the whole house over for you. I have a wonderful surprise for you. Tour Aunt Durkee is bring ing it In. I’ll give you three guesses. "You'll stop the whole proceedings until I get back with Katie," I said crisply. "I've made her a. solemn promise that site shall be present si this particularly surprise party." "All right," Alfred agreed, "hut I warn you to hurry. I can't keep Her Kiuffiness back long.” "I'll fly." I promised, and hurrying Into the kitchen. I grabbed Katie by both arms just as she was about to plunge them Into the hot aoapv dish water. "Hurry, and don't speak. If you want to see that baby," I whispered, and with her face one hroad grin of happiness, she faiilv ran with me back to the dining room. "Where's the Surprise?" There we found Marlon and Junior carefully making the three guesses Alfred had proposed. They were wild with excitement. altogether too wrought up. I decided with my eyes upon their fluahed faces, and I was relieved, indeed, when I heard little Mrs. Durkee's voice outside the door. "Is It sll right, Alfred? Are they ready,” "They're bubbling over," he re plied, and then little Mrs. Durkee walked into the room hearing her t.ny new granddaughter, so' swathed, however, that none of her face or hands were visible. I heard an hysterical chuckle from Katie, promptly smothered, and a quick breath from Marlon, who, 1 think, solved the puzzle at once. Bui Junior took a quiet atep forward and confronted little Mrs. Durkee mill tantly. "Where's the surprise," he de manded. "In that bundle?" Tea. dear." Mrs, Durkee drew aside the coverin'?" gently. "Iktok! What do you call this?" Junior looked long and earnestly. Then he sniffed disdainfully. "Huh!” he Bald, "I call that a monkey on a stick." - .

But 1 must be conscious of genuine superiority be fore 1 can feel at home with women. “The one trait 1 detest in so many modern girls,” he continued with in genuous cynicism, “is their pose of superiority, whether intellectual or social.” “Then superior intelligence in wo men displeases you?” 1 asked with what was intended for sarcasm. Met to my surprise my remark was taken quite seriously. “Oh, no,” he replied earnestly, "let women be as intelligent a* they like, but apply their intelligence to their practical affairs, not as a means of showing off. “The bane of my life is the woman who's so conceited about her small share iff cleverness and education that she's everlastingly trying to Impress others as if that got her anywhere with a man. The superiority complex, whatever channel of expression it finds, leads to a personality that is neither charm ing nor lovable, for selfconscious su periority soon develops into egotism and self-love. The irresistibly lovable girl Is the girl who is quick to see and admire the fine traits In others. She's glad men are strong, provided they also are chivalrous and kind—it gives her a wonderful sense of being protected. And she has sense enough to realize that women do need more or less pro tectIon In this world. She is glad the man she's to tparry Is capable and stronger than herself tp head the family they two shall es tablish. Love adjusts the balance between superior and inferior qualitiea In men * % For the best drawings of Peter Pan Six Gold Prizes will be given by the makers of Peter Pan Bread.

Troubled: There's no harm In mar rying money—we know that money has power for good and Joy when with money goes mutual love. But there is harm in marrying for money. Xot all the wealth of old Croesus will give one iota of joy where love does not abide. Why is there such fear of poverty among young girls? Half ttie rich folk you know began life most hum bly. And slowly, happily, with love to hold and bless, they worked their way to riches with content. Two persons of independent good senses can indeed find love in a cot tage—or a three-room flat. And it’s fun to economize and to save with the man you love. Sometime* the temptation comes in subtle form to wed for riches, for an other ambition, friendship. But your own instinct will guide you rightly if you will but listen.
