The hee! and loeg well moistened,

The bathroom door cloied, the

-Mr. Edwards h htre. ma"
Aana knocked at the door.
Verv well. Ml be riant out." Re.
belliouilr perlina off the rubhrr
glove. Helen fluffed her hair by the
mirrored door of the medicine chet.
It never failed! W'arm'a litter at
ways came at the mott inconvenient
timet.
"Whew I The whole plact reeki

reluctantly emerged from the bath
room. "Yet. I was cleaning tome alin

an envelope from her handbag;,
dropped on the window aeat "I
just
came in to bring Aunt Emma i
letter.
"Aunt Emma?" Warren'a ' aunt
never wrote jinleti the wanted snme
thing. With deep misgiving!, Helen
read the letter.
Dear Carrie:
Will it be convenient for me
to Kay with you next week?
I'm having more trouble with
my teeth. That plate I had
made last year always hurt
t me when I eat, o I've decided.
I to have another one made.
I'm not going back to Dr.
Moffat. The plate never fit and
he charged rne $116. I think
I'll try your dentist.
I.rt me know, if next week
will be convenient. If not. I
can put it off until the week
after. 1 Tell Bobbie I'm bring
ing him something nice.
With love,
. AUNT EMMA.
"It's, too bad she's having more
trouble," murmured Helen, replacing
the letter in the envelope. "Bufper
haps it's just as well she should try
another dentist.' I'll ask Warren
about the one he's going to."
"That wasn't what I wanted to see

gloves in her Up. "We've been SO
t)P"t the tatt Uw weekt. Itot.bie't
jut getting over the whooping cough
and Jane's to d"agrerablt when we
have company. 1 ihmk Aunt Emma
had better coon here."
"Why, Carrie, we bad her last year
and the year before, Surely it'a your
turn nowT
"Well, it couldul come at a worse
time for me. Betides everything else,
we're going to have the gue.t room
done over. I've been trying to get
that Jspered for months."
' "sou don't have to have it done
Jut when Aunt Emma's coming.
Even if you do, she could sleep on
that couch in the library."
"She wouldn't be comfortable on
that. She's very limy about her bed."
"Then why can't she go to a ho
tel?" "Von know Aunt Emma! After
paying for her teeth, she'll think she
can't afford it"
"Well,. it doesn't seem fair they
should all make a convenience ol
staying here when they come to
town," flushed Helen. "I'm always
having some of Warren's relatives
they've all been here over and over
again. Aunt Emma, Uncle Ned and
Coutin Minnie! I don't mind it
occationally, but when it becomes a
regular"
'I'm afraid you're rather selfish,
Helen. We all nave to inconvenienrt
ourselves at times." with her most
exatperating self-righteous air.
"Carrie. I inconvenience myself for
your family a great deal more than
you do! There's hardly a month I
don't have some of them here over
night. It's not fair!" she Tung back,
starting in to answer the library
phone.'
The receiver felt chill against the
indignant flush that heated her face
and neck.
"Hello! Oh. how are you. Mrs.
Stevens? . . . Why, yes, I guess he's
as good as any of them. He covered
that couch in the library. ... I have
it right here hold the phone."
As Helen rummaged through her
desk for the address of the uphol
sterer, a yellow envelope gleamed
out from a pigeon hole of letters.
That telegram from Janetl An
other of Warren's relatives who was
always presuming on her hospi
tality. The upholsterer's address given to
Mrs. Stevens, with mounting resent

glance at the telegram.

OMAHA,

stop with you, "JANET."
That was hardly a montn ago.,
and now Carrie capeited her to take
Aunt Fmtual
he wouldn't! It was an impotL
tion! The whole family simply used
her! Mie nmt think of some ex
one why she could not have Aunt
Emma,
In a flash, it came!; Helen's in.
genuity rarely fi led her, Sue would
pretend that this telegram luj just
come! As she must hate Janet
the could not have Aunt Emma.
The date would (lift betray her?
Hut a haity scrutiny of the blurred
stamp was reassuring. The date was
undecipherable. And Carrie's sharp
tongue had long ago anispoiiiied
Janet, they neither visited nor corre
sponded an added assurance that
l.er rue would not be discovered.
At always in an emergency, Helen's
mind worked fast. She was framing
a plausible exeme for every possible
contingency. If Carrie learned that
Janet had not come another tele
gram saying she had been delayed
could be invented.
Darting noiselessly out to the hall,
he slipped the telegram under the
door, then hurried back to her own
room where Carrie was waiting im
patiently, "Mrs. Stevens wanted the address
of an upholaieffr," apologetically.
' "Well, will you write Aunt Emma
cr shall I?" with crisp Jinalitv.
"Write her what?" flamed Helen.
"That she can come liere. The
next time she can atay with me but
I really can't have her now."
Helen was standing by the" dresser
playing with the cord of her electric
curler.
"Very well. Carrie, I'll write her,"
with well feigned reluctance. "But
I really think Isn't that the bell?"
"I didn't hear it. When you write,
say 'Bobbie's had the whooping
cough and I'm very much upset but
I'll write her in a few days."
"I'm sure that was the bell. Anna's
so deaf," hurrying out to the hall.
When she came back she was
scanning the telegram. t
"From Janet!" Then with simu
lated dismay she read aloud the mes
sage. "Will be in New York tomor
row for a few days. If con
venient will stop with you."

note I'll have to manage somehow."
1'lien vindictively, "Hope Aunt Em
ma 'II get the right teeth this timet
Thrte regular visits are getting to
be a little too much."
Helen wanted to say that it was
the who had entertained Aunt Em
ma on both her other "teeth" so
journt, but her rue having worked
successfully, she generously refrained
from this remark.
A bang of the front dor and
heavy slept through the hall.
' Hello. Carrie! What brought you
in?" was Warren's brik greeting.
How'a everything?"
"All right, except that we have to
entertain Aunt Emma for a week or
to. Robbie's hardly over the whoop
ing rough and the whole place is up
set. I came in hoping Helen could
have her."
"Why. I guess we can manage it.
can't we?" '
"I'm sorrv. dear, but we can't. I
jumct got a wire froh Janet saying
she's coming in town tomorrow and
wants to stay here.
"Again?" grumbled Warren. "Why
she was jnt here Iat month. Al
that rate she'll meet herself coming
back."
"Last month! Helen didn't tell
'me that. I always knew that Janet
had nerve. Here's her telegram."
Carrie handed it to him from the
dresser.
"That's funny!" puirled Warren.
"That's just what she wired last
time."
"I suppose she has a formula."
laugheft Helen nervously. "If she
wants to keep it to a few words she
can't vary it much."
"Hm-ni, that is funny." Carrie had
picked up the enevlope that had flut
tered to the floor, and was scrutiniz
ing something on the back.
"What is it?" asked Helen, tensely
apprehensive.
"A list of groceries in your writ
ing. .'String beans, onions, soup, vege
tables, rice and baking powder.'" she
read aloud with derisive emphasis.
"Just when did you make that lict,
Helen?" ' ' .

An Open Letter to KING AK - SAR -
Your Royl Highness:
,For twenty-tight yn you have reigned In this great land of
Corn, Cattle, Hogs and Statesmen, as Al Sorenson puts it, and no Kinff
ever ruled in any land -with more thought and devotion to the well m ,
being of his subjects. '
Your annual festivities start tomorrow night at the "Den." so I
grasp this opportunity to extend my congratulations and 'best wishes
for a successful year's reign.
During the third year'of your reign my firm, THE PANT0R1UM,
became one of your devoted subjects. We have grown and prospered
along with Nebraska and Omaha, and so long as Your Highness occu
pies the throne you can count on our fealty and loyalty In all your
undertakings.
Your unselfish devotion to the interests of our City and State has
inspired in us a Civic pride, than which no city in this broad land of
ours possesses greater.
You have proved once again that "in union there is strength," for
we have accomplished enmasse many things that we never would
have accomplished as individuals.
Of all the agencies working for Omaha and Nebraska, I consider
AK-SAR-BEN the greatest, and I hope to see the day when every
man in OmaTia will be one of your Henchmen. - You'll notice I say
"Henchmen" (we are all your "Subjects"), but a Henchman is one who
has paid his $10 for the privilege of being such. Come on in, fellows I
