I have telephoned Llzotto for somo

although Dallas promises to get us

CHAPTER IX.
Flannlgan's Find. .
The most charltablo thing would bo
to say nothing about tho first day.
Wo wcro baldly brutal that's tho
only word for It. And Mr, Harbison,
with his beautiful courtosy tho really
slncoro kind trlod to patch up ouo
quarrel after another nnd failed. He
rose 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.
Bolla was horrid, of course. Sho
frozo Jim until ho said ho was going
to sit in the refrigerator and cool tho
butter. Sho locked herself In tho
dressing-room it hnd been assigned
to mo, but that made no dlfforenco to
Bella and did her nails, and took
thrco different baths, nnd refused to
como to tho tablo. And of courso
Jimmy was wild, and said sho would
stnrvo. But I sold, "Very well, lot
her starve. Not a tray shall leave my
kltchon." It was a comfort to have
hor shut up thero anyhow: It post
poned tho tlmo when sho would como
face to faco with Flannlgnn.
Aunt Sellna got sick that day, as I
havo said. I was not so blttor as the
others; I did not say that I wished
alio would die. Tho worst I ever wish
od her was that she might bo quite 111
for somo time, and yot, when sho be
gan to recover, sho was dreadful to
mo. Sho said for ouo thing, that It
was tho hard-boiled eggs and tho stato
of the houso that did It. And whon I
said that tho grlppo was n gorm, sho
rotorted that I had probably brought
it to her on my clothing.
You romomber that Betty hnd drawn
tho nurae's slip, and how ploascd sho
had boon about it, Sho got up early
tho morning of the first day nnd made
horsolf a lawn cap and telephoned out
for n white nurso's uniform that is,
of courso, for a white uniform for n
nurse. Sho really looked vory fotch
lng. and she went around all the mom
ing with n rod cross on her sleove and
- -mmm
a Saint Cecilia expression, gathering
up bottles of medlclue most of it
flesh reducer, which wns path6tlc, and
closing wlndowu for fear of drafts.
Sho refused to holp with tho hoto
work, nnd looked qulto exalted,' but by
nttornoon It hnd palled on her somo
what, and Bho and Max shook dlco.
Botty was really pleased when Aunt
Scllna Bent for her. Sho took In a
bottlo of cologne to batho her brow,
and wo all Btood outsldo tho door nnd
listened. Betty tiptoed In In hor prof
ty cap nnd apron, nnd wo henrd her
cautiously draw down the shades.
"What aro yon doing that for?"
Aunt Sellna demanded. "I llko tha
light."
"It's bad for your poor eyes," Botty's
tono wns exactly tho propor bedside
pitch, low and Bugary.
"'Swcot and low, Bwcot nnd low,
wind of tho western Bear"Dnl hum
mod outsldo.
"Put up thoso window-shadost,"
Aunt Sollna's volco wns strong enough.
"What's In that bottlo?"
Botty was still mild. Sho swished tc
tho window and rnlsod tho shade.
"I m bo sorry you nro ill," sho said
sympathetically. "This is for yout
poor aching head. Now closo your
eyes nnd Ho porfoctly sHt and I will
coo! your forehead."
"Thcro's nothing tho mntter with
ray head," Aunt Setlnn retorted. "And
I have not lost my faculties; 1 am not
n child, or a sick cow. If that's per
fumery, take it out."
Wo hoard Botty coming to tho door,
but thoro wns ' no time to get away.
She had dropped her mask for n minute-
nnd was biting her Up, but whon
sho saw UB sho forced n emtio.
"Sho's 111, poor dear," sho said. "II
you peoplo will go nway, I can bring
her around nil right. In two hours
Bho will oat out of my hand."
"Eat n piece out of your hand," Mn'j
Bcoffed In n whisper.
Wo wnltod a llttlo longer, but It wni
too painful. Aunt Scllna demhnded n
mustard foot bath and n hot lomonndo
nnd hor back rubbed with llnlmonl
and somo strong black tea. And in
tho Intervals Bho wnntod to bo rend
to out of tho prayer-book. And whon
wo had all gono away, thoro camo tho
most terrible nolso from Aunt Scllna's
room, nnd every ono ran. Wo found
Botty In tho hnll outsldo tho door, cry
ing, with hor fingers In her cars and
hor cap over hor oyc. Sho said sho
hnd been putting tho hot-water bottlo
to Aunt Scllnn'B back, nnd It had boon
too hot. Just thon something hit
against tho door with a soft thud, foil
to tho floor and burst, for a trlcklo of
hot wator camo over tho sill.
"Sho won't let bo hold hor hand,"
Botty walled, "or batho hor brow, or
smooth hor pillow. Sho thinks of
nothing but hor stomach or hor back I
And when I try to mnko her bed look
decent, sho spits at mo llko a cut
Everything I do Is wrong. Sho spilled
tho foot-bnth into hor shoes, and blam
ed mo for it,"
It took tho united efforts of nil ol
us oxcopt Bolla, who stood back and
smiled nastily to got Betty back Into
tho sick-room again. I was supremely
thankful by that tlmo that I had not
drawn tho nurso's slip. With dinner
ordered in from ono of tho clubs, and
tho omelet ton hours bohlnd me, my
position did not soem so unbearable,
But a now development was coming.
Whllo Botty was fussing with Aunt
Sollnn, Max led a search of tho house.
Ho said the necklnco and tho bracelet
must bo hidden somowhero, and that
no crovlco was too small to neglect.
Wo mado a formal search all to
gether, except Botty and Aunt Sollnn,
and wo found n lot of things in differ
ont plncos that Jim said had been
missing since tho year one. But no
jowols nothing oven suggesting n
Jowol wub found. Wo had explored the
ontlro houso, overy cupboard, every
chest, ovon tho lnsldcs of tho couches
nnd tho pockets of Jlm'B clothos
which ho resented bitterly and found
nothing, nnd I must say tho situation
was growing rather strained. Soma
ono had taken tho Jowels; thoy hadn't
walked away.
It, was Flannlgnn who suggested the
roof, nnd ns we had tried ovory place
olso, wo climbed there. Of courso wo
didn't find anything, but after all day
In tho houso with tho shutters closed
on account of roportrs, tho nlr wns

mild und sunny, nnd wo could look
down over Riverside Drlyo nnd the
Hudson, nnd ovon recognize pcoplo we
know on horseback nnd in enrs. It
was a pnthotlc Joy, and wo lined up
along tho parapet nnd watched the
motor-boats racing on tho river, nnd
trlod to feel that wo wore In tho world

"So Erma Is engaged," said Elcnnor,
with n curl of her lip. "Well, I'm
sorry for tho man, that's all. Sho
doesn't know tho first thing about

"Oh, yes, sho does, though," was
Fannlo's assuring reply,
"Woll. I'd llko to know what It Is,"
wbb tho doubting response.

Tho Servant Problem.
Tho fact that housekeeping is being

communities, nnd Is being put
Into tho curriculum on par with other

Thoro Is no danger that tho otllcc

bo plenty of girls more ndnptod to

In thnt good time coming tho businoss

clerks, poor stonogrnphora, poor teach

wives nro not strong enough to bear
