I'or a moment longer May Striv-kland
sat at the lahle. with elbows rest ins
Thereon an 1 face between two dim-h
ed li- ts. T!i'-re was an intent, staring
I k.!, in her eyes. She turned and J-.-ed
Doris, who had emerged from KTiIn.l
the sofa. The appearance of the child
tdarilod the mother.
"Dori.-!" she exclaimed. "Where did
yen come 1'rcuiV
"I was sitting b;h:nd th- sofa, m.atn
ma. Was it that nl 'e. soft, black, lit t iv
P'irse you lost?"
Si the cliiid had overheard the tele
phono talk! And Robert was comiep
heme that liiilit! Doris must be
warned;
The mother's voice was very quiet
nn-.l earnest, end the words came slow
ly a she said:
"Di.sUii to me. Doris, oear. When
daddy comes I don't want yon U say
any thin"; to Li:u alniut the purse. He'll
le auury if he knows It's lost, and then
b'.-'ll worry aln;ut it- You don't want
to worry daddy, do you?"
"No. Rut, mamma, weren't you
shopping J esterday ?"
"Uf cour-e, dear."
-Rut you told the inau you were at
Long Draiicii."
"It was a fiieiul of mine who was
there," said Mrs. Strickland. "I lua.ued
Ler the pu:e. and she lost it."
"Who was it?" asked Doris.
"Yea don't know her, dear." .
" sss
YYhy did you lend tier your purse?
"Reeause she hadn't any money of
her own."
There waB a puzzled look on the
child's face as she replied. As she told
Judpre Dinsmore later, she had U-en
trained, and by the very mother who
was now fibbing to her. to tell the
truth In any circumstances. So she
said:
"Rut, mamma, wasn't it fibbing to
tell the man"
"No. I'll explain some other time.
Now promise mamma you won't say
anything."
"I promise," said little Doris.
And now came a great event in the
life of Doris the homecoming after a
few clays' absence of her dearly le
loved daddy. She had missed him
greatly, so that it was with great joy
she heard bis voice In the anteroom
saying to the Stricklands' maid:
"Hello, Rertha! How are you?
Everylody all right?"
Almost lfore Rertha could reply
Doris ran from the room, crying:
"It's daddy, mamma! It's daddy!"
Still outside the room in which his
wife waited, silent, for him, Strickland
culled out:
"Yes. it's your old daddy. nello,
sweetheart!"
There was a boisterous meeting of
father and little daughter in the ante
room. "nello, daddy dear! What have you
got for me?"' asked Doris.
"Something wonderful !" replied Strick
land. "Give me another kiss. Are you
glad to see your daddy?"
"Oh, mamma and I have been so
lonesome !"
"Where is mamma?"
"In here," said Doris, and she took
her daddy by the hand and led nim
into the sitting room. At one s'dp
stood the wife. Ab her husband en
tered she made one step toward him
and then hesitated, waitinu. Stri-k
land was still busied with his lilt'.?
daughter. He handed his traveling
bag to Iter, and she stood holding it in
her two small hands, for It was heavy,
while May, overcoming her hesitation,
ran to her husband. Her voice was af
fectionate, but high pitched, as she em
braced him and said:
"Robert, dear, I'm so glad you're
hack.-
Her words were sincere, and ber out
ward manner was that of a loving
wife, glad to welcome back her bus
band after an unavoidable separation.
To the latter, happy in the reunion
with his wife and child, there was
nothing strange in the greetings.
Rut a close observer might have
noted that tho manner of May Strick
land at this time was strained and un
natural, almost hysterical. She wa-
keyed to too high a point. Her mo
tions were strained and jerked, as
t x,j -

though her limbs moved in response to
nerves that were stretched taut. The
face hhe showed to Robert was aglow
with welcome, but when he turned
aside for a moment to speak with
I 'oris the eyes tpok on a staring, strain
ed expression iu which one might read
horror, almost.
Was it the loss of the purse tint per
turbed her so? Whatever it was. while
her husband's attention was distracted
by the child, she made a great and
successful effort to calm herself.
Strickland stilled the clamors of Doris
long enough to turn to his wife and
say:
"It's good to be back. Ry Jove. I
was homesick
"Those few days seemed like ages."
said May. "Didn't it seem a long
time. I 'oris?"
"Oh, an awfully long time!" said
Doris. "Whenever the clock struck
today 1 wished it was time for you to
le here. Didn't I, mamma?"
"Well," said Strickland, "next time
we will all go together."
"Everything's all right, then?" asked
May.
"Yes; just as I w rote you."
"Have you Lad your dinner. Rob
ert?"
"No; 1 was no anxious to get home
that I didn't stop." .
"You must be famished. 1'il have
Rertha get some dinner ready for you
It won't take long."
"Thanks, dear." And to Doris, who
had gone to her beloved dolls again.
Strickland said, "Come here."
"I'm leaving you in good bauds.'
said May as she left the room to super
intend the preparation of her husband's
- f ,
v. - . V
Wif-
dinner.
"Oh, yes." said Strickland; "Doris
and I have lots of things to tell each
other." He seated himself and took
Doris on one knee. "Now, young lady,
tell your daddy, who hasn't seen you
for four whole days, exactly what
you've been doing with every minute
of your time."
"Oh, daddy. I was promoted said
Doris, with face aglow.
"Of course you were promoted! 1
didn't exiMK-t anything else. You're in
the grammar school now?"
"Yes," said Doris proudly.
With mock sorrow Strickland went
on:
"Oh, dear; oh. dear; at this rate
you'll soon be through college!"
"I don't want to go to college." said
Doris. "I want to le a cook, with a
big white n;jron and lots of shiny
pans, so that I can make cookies and
pies and bread and give them to the
heathens."
"To the heathens!"
"Y's; I'm learning to cook, daddy. 1
helped Aunt Helen yesterday."
"Were you at Aunt Helen's yester
day?"' "Yes. all day, because mamma was
i downtown shopping."
"And what did you do today?
"Today I stayed home and played
house. We were going to the park,
but mamma wanted to lie down, so we
didn't go."
"Isn't mamma well?"
"She has a headache."
"lias she had it long?"
"No, only today. Did you get a
house, daddy?"
"Yes, a nice white house, with a large
garden."
The description pleased Doris, and
the clapiK-d her hands.
"And cows, daddy?" she asked.
"No. no cows, but lots of flowers and
a d .g."
"Oh. a big dog?"
"Yes. and now let me show you
what daddy brought you."
Doris jumped off his knee with the
exclamation. "Something for me: "
"Yes. something nice," said Strick
land, and the two walked to the table
i v.
Oh, daddy, isn't he beautiful 7"
on which Doris had deposited ber fa
ther's traveling bag. As Strickland
opened the catches Doris clambered
u;hju a chair In her impatience to see
the gift. When Strickland opened the
top of the bag the little girl ieered
within. She thrust her hand into the
oiH'ning and drew out a revolver,
which she held dangling from one
hand.
"Oh. what's this shiny thing?" the
child exclaimed.
In evident fright Strickland took the
weaiKin from the child and dropped it
Into the bag.
"That's a revolver." he saUl. "and
don't you ever dare touch it!" Then
be reached into the bag and drew out
a large doll, wrapped in paper. Un
wrapping it, he said:
"There, what do you think of that?"
Doris took ile doll. "Oh. daddy, isn't
he beautiful? WLat shall we call
him?"
In mock meditation Strickland put
his hand to his forehead and appeared
to le thinking deeply.
"W-e-1-1." he said slow ly, "as he came
from Germany, suppose we call him
Herman?"
Refore Doris could accept the Ger
manic name for her new doll Rertha
pppeared in the room and said to
Strickland, "Mr. Trask is here."
It "was" 1la inly to be seen that the
visitor was welcome to Strickland. He
forgot even Doris for a moment and
turned eagerly to the servant, saying:
"Ob. yes! Rring him right iu."
