Even niy ambition to emulate Kit Jian * poker face upon all occasions, failed me utterly at her recital, ller inference concerning the connection of the sick girls valise with Hugh timntland's disappearance mystified me. Mingled with my stupeficatlon "as a little thrill of triumph. The fantastic conclusion to which my own deductions had pointed, and which I had put aside as worthy of not even a second's consideration, was somewhere near the mark after all. "You mean," I stammered. Killian laughed. "If you could see your own face!" she said. "You don't know how tri umphant I feel at being able to call forth an expression of surprise upon that usually imperturable mien." I gathered myself together and smiled hack at her. "Don’t be a pig," I admonished her. "You know that I am consumed with curiosity. Has the girl’s memory returned to her? i.ee Chow said while In her room a little while ago that she hag forgot again.’ " "l.ee Chow is eminently correct. Killian answered. "She has forgetten again, not only the past In which she knew both l.ee Chow and Hugh Grantland, and had some knowledge of you, hut the business of the valise in which she clung so tenaciously-. Katherine tells me that after T.ee Chow left the room, the girl looked at her bandaged arm, and asked what was the matter with it. but dis played no recollection whatever of the valise. Katherine also savs that, in all probability, she will not remem ber the vall.se again. It is off her arm, until she regains her full mem ory, and that possibility Is a re mote one, I'm not going to wait any longer to find out whatever we can from it.” Kittle Mrs. Efficiency. She walked to the closet as she spoke, and unlocking it, took from tt the valise with the chain still de pending from it. T felt my pulses throbbing with an emotion out of ail proportion even t the bizarre action in which l.llllan was evolving me. Rut I schooled my face to calmness, resolved that my friend should have no further occasion for amusement at my curiosity. "There!" said Killian, setting the valise down upon a low stand be tween ber chair and mine. "Vow for a bit or burglarious entry. Is there a hammer anywhere in this vicinity? I want to straighten these keys, or make a stab at it. before I try the lock.” I'll get you one immediately," 1 said, going out of the room to a hall closet, where 1 kept a few tools. When I retimed Killian had placed upon ' • l.rii-’ l'Crth the keys Katin •line n-id tnk-tt front the uucon scions gnls st. and was kneeling beside them. She stretched ,,nt per hand for the hammer, and with in finite pains begati hammering the twisted keys into some semblance of tlt^Biriginal shape. Finally she held up one of 1h4tn, looked at it critically, and nodded her ltead. "This may do," she said. "Will you please.”• But I anticipated her request, and swung the valise to the floor beside her. "Kittle Mrs. Efficiency," she gibed affectionately, as she inserted the key into the lock, and tried her best to turn it. "Vot quite good enough,” she said at last, her face flushed from her effort. Valise Full of money. "May 1 try it I asked with out ward diffidence, hut secret confl r “ \ COLOR CUT-OUTS Mary and Her Lamb i_ _J Here's (lie Idiiiib. This Is the second part of the story of "Mary ami Her Mttle Umh.” If you saved Mary yestsrday you can rul out the lamb today to play with her. Tomor row thero will be a draaa for Mary to wear.* see Mary’a lamb, as you know, had fleece Just as white as snow. Mary loved to comb Its silky hair and ahe gave It many baths In a big tub out In the yard, being very careful not to get soap In Its eye*. All the time Mary wn# boms the lamb followed her around, and hi* funny eyes were ss sad as sad could t.e when Mary went off to school •very day. lie didn't llks being left alone, so he watched hla chance and one day s he slip; »d out the gate and folio wad Mary He trotted siting close behind her but she didn't nee him. (Copyright, in;. * dence, for I am what Mrs. Ticer calls “handy with tools," while T.11 lian's lack of ability In that direction is in inverse proportion to her own valuation of her ability. Dicky often has said that, “Old Lil is prouder when she manages to drive a nail straight than she is when she pulls off one of her brilliant advertising Illustrations." and I have learned that her vanity on that point is her heel of Achilles. * “Of course, if you think you can do anything with It," she returned a bit grudgingly. “But I'm afraid we shall have to force the lock.” "In all probability,” I agreed promptly, even as I removed the key from the leek and studied both it and the keyhole, to see if I could dis cover anything I could remedy. T knew that someone had tried the kev before, and I saw at once that the pieces of metal surrounding the keyhole had been jammed together. "Wait just a minute.” 1 said, put ting the bag down and dashing out of the room. When T came back I brought n tiny, but strong ami blunt screw driver, the blade of which I inserted between the jammed pieces of metal and pried them ever so slightly apart. Then t Inserted the key, pressed hard upon it and the. valise flew open, revealing to our astonished gaze—money! Dozens of packages of paper money, filling it to the brim! New Librarians’ Club. The librarians nf Council Bluffs and Omaha met in the children’s room of the Omaha public library on Friday evening, March 20. and com pleted the organization of the “I-lb rarian’s club.” The object of the club is professional Improvement, mutual acquaintance and tlie promo tion of literary interests. Three reg ular meetings will be held each year. Representatives were present from tlie Council Bluffs public library, the Omaha public library and tlie special libraries of the two cities which in clude high school libraries, the Uni versity of Nebraska medical library, Creighton college libraries. Douglas county law library and the University of Omaha library. Doves Her Sister’s Suitor. The old, old story of the two sis ters—one popular and the oilier tin popular—is told me again by "Ger trude." who loves a man her sister does not care for, hut neverthlees at tracts. She writes: Dear Miss Allen: I nm a working girl of 24 and am very lonely. 1 have never had a sweetheart and cannot understand why. because I am eonsld ered good looking. .My sister alse works. bdre is a girl of 20 and has always been popular. She is selfish too, ntnl only cares for a good time For almost a year siie haa^been going with a man seven years olden than herself. He is a gentleman li every way ami says he loves her. bul she does not love hint and treats hln: just as mean as can l>e. I can't see why she goes with him If she feeh that way. 1 love him. hut T have never told her so because she would 'make fur of me. T told m.v mother about It and mother asked my sister to invite him and some one else over, hoping that he and I would he thrown together and he would like me. but she wouldn't do It. She never’ tries to help me to have a good time or take me along anywhere. What can I do to win the man I lore nwny from m.v sister? 1 wouldn't think of such a thing if she loved hint, but as Ions as she does not I think it is perfectly fair, OKRTRtUE. Don't let yourself envy jour sister'i popularity because such thoughts will fill your heart With bitterness. The happier and more loveable your nature Is. the more friends you will have. Dove Is always playing tricks and tt may come to you and you may marry before your sister. 1 can see that II would he difficult for your Rtster tc take you along when she has beer Invited somewhere. It seems unkind of course, to leave you behind, bul tire man inviting her wants her a nr her alone. Nowadays young wmrrer do not wait for attentions from young men, but they go places together, Sr that you will not stay at home sr much and feel so lonely, find som< congenial friends and have good times on your own hook.

In the patio there are fountains on whose waters electric lights constantly play. On one patio wall there is a lion from a Spanish garden. "The floor treatment in the home is most unusual. Soft red tiles, two feet square are used in the hall, and In the living room, there are rugs, made to measure which took nine months to make and were sent in from Mexico. Bed velvet hangs at the windows, and Is carelessly drap ed on the floor, to give a rich effect.” Mrs. Bradford was entertained at dinner at the ftoot home with J. A. Cavers, Omahan.
