Art seemed a safe topic: and 1 steered for the open, and spoke in a j large way. out of my ignorance, of '< Michelangelo's Influence, winding up i presently with a suggestion that Miss Pat should have her portrait painted. This was a successful stroke, for we all fell into a discussion of content' porancous portrait painters about whom Sister Margaret fortunately knew something, but a cold chill went down my back a moment later when Miss l“at turned upon Rosalind and asked her a direct question: "Helen, what was the name of the artist w lio did that miniature of your mother?" Sister Margaret swallowed a glass of water, and 1 stooped to pick up tu> napkiu.

She glanced across the room to where Rosalind and Sisier Margars't talked qui. tly together. 1 felt Miss Pat s hand touch mine, and suddenly there wore tears in her eyes 1 was wi\mg' l was most unjust in #Yt •r__, what I said to you of her. She wt*a all tenderness, ail gentleness when she came in this morning” She fum bled at her belt and held up a small cluster of the sweet peas that Rosa lind had brought from Red Gate. “I told you so!” I said, trying to laugh off her contrition. “What you said to me is forgotten. Miss Pat.” “And now when everything is set tled, if she wants to marry Gillespie, let her do it." “But she won’t! Haven't I told you that Helen shall never marry him?" I had ordered a buckboard, and it was now announced. “Don't trouble to go upstairs. Aunt Pat; I will bring your things for you.” said Rosalind; and Miss Pgt turned upon me with an air of satisfaction and pride, as much as to sav: “You see how devoted she is to me!" I wish to acknowledge here my ob ligations to Sister Margaret for giving me the benefit of her care and re sourcefulness on that difficult day. There was no nice detail that she over looked. no danger that she did not an ticipate. She sat by Miss Pat on the lor.g drive, while Rosalind and l chat tered nonsense behind them. We were so fortunate as to strike the first bat talion. and saw it go into camp on a bit of open prairie to await the arrival of the artillery that followed. But at no time did I lose sight of the odd business that stiil lay ahead of me, nor did 1 remember with any satis faction how Helen, somewhere across woodland and lake, chafed at the de layed climax of her plot. The girl at .ny side, lovely and gracious as she was. struck me increasingly as but a tame shadow of that other one, so like and so unlike! 1 marveled that Miss Pat had not seen it: and in a period of silence on the drive home 1 think Rosalind must have guessed my thought; for 1 caught her regarding me with a mischievous smile and she said, as the others rather too generous ly sought to ignore us: "»ou can see now how different 1 am—how very different!" When 1 left them at St. Agatha's with an hour to spare before dinner. Sister Margaret assured me with her eyes that there was nothing to fear. I was nervously pacing the long ter race when 1 saw tny guests approach ing 1 told the butler to order dinner at once and went down to meet them. Miss Pat declared that she never felt better; and under the excitement of the hour Sister Margaret's eyes glowed brightly. As we sat down in the screened cor ner of the broad terrace, with the tirst grave approach of twilight in the sky Hint the curved trumpet of the young moon hanging in the west, it might have seemed to an onlooker that the god* of chance had oddly ordered our little company Mis* Patricia la white was a ptetuve td serenity, with the smile constant about her Up.* happy in her hot-e tor the future Rosalind twsh to these surroundings, showed clear! v her tdvasuw in the pretty set ting of the svante, and wad into it, in bright tdouses, the dvltght el a story lasd, tnebient ted me see,' she said, tNdVwttxely, ■w»t who we atv AVe aw the tavlv vd 'be castle mdihors dtniag at fw*vo, wtth the abbess, who i> also a mdde ladv ream access the thdds to sit at meat wtth her, And you, stt\ are a kntght full ecguteuu, tested tu many lands, and sworn to the defense of these ladles" "And \ou" and Alias Pat's eyes wop,' beautifully ktud and g\Adb\ a' she buvV the ewe and tnfUed to Res* tiad.

Now that taffeta petticoats are com ing back again it is well to know how to make them last as long as pos sible. Do not choose a silk that has much dressing in it, as It cuts much more quickly. Do not have much shirring or tuck ing as the effort to keep dust brushed out is hard on the pettlcoaL Do not fold in a chest or trunk as the creases will cut quickly. Hang by straps to the waist hand. Have a silk skirt put on a narrow band; pulling on a draw string, be i sides giving greater bulk, cuts the material. One woman says her skirts wear longer If she hangs them upside down by loops placed on under side of ruffle Do not save your taffeta petticoats.
