“My Husband's Love”
_____
Lillian Laid Further Plans for the
Journey.
1 looked at Lillian with the adrnira^
tlon which I always feel when some
plan of hers reveals her resourceful
ness and her fertile imagination. I
hated to depreciate it even by a sug
gestion, yet something had occurred
to me which 1 knew I must voice.
“It strikes me as a most wonder
ful plan.” I said, answering her
ouory, "but—do you think it's going
to be safe to take them to the apart
ment?”
“Why not?” she countered. “No
body knows the address save our
selves and the postoffice and we’ve
spiked that down.”
“But we haven't made sure that no
telephone calls will be traced between
here and the apartment.
Bhe sat down in the nearest chair
■with an exaggerated gesture of hea
viness, and stared at me.
“By the left horn of the cow that
Jumped over the moon,” she ejacu
lated, "you’ve hit it. There must be
a perforation In the back of my skull
where the gray matter is disappear
ing. There's the vulnerable place
and the one t should have thought of
first. There’s no mire way of pro
tecting It either. My salute to you.
Madame! 'You're a better man than
1 am, Gunga Lin!’ ’’
1 flushed and protested vigor
ously.
"Nonsense, I just thought of it
myself this minute. It was the obvi
thing, therefore we both over
looked It. But what's jo be done,
now?”
The Flushing RetreaTT
“Exactly the same thing as be
fore, with only ono change. You'll
stop short of New York, in—let s see
■—Flushing. I know a woman there
w ho keps a small boarding house,
clean and comfortable, with only
members of her own family for help.
.She can be depended on to keep her
mouth shut, also, which is very neces
sary business just now. I’ll give you
a letter to her, and you can stay
there until the ship sails, and drive
into New Y'ork for whatever shopping
jou need.”
“But 1 won't be permitted to drive
in New York,” I objected. "I never
have taken the examination for an
operator's license.”
“Nobody’s expecting you to,” she
retorted a bit acidly. “Unless you
were verj/ well used to driving there,
it would be the acme of folly for you
to attempt it, and risk the chance of
even a minor accident making you
conspicuous. But this woman to
whom you are going will find you s
discreet chauffeur. She has worked
for me before.”
"Oh'.” I said, chagrined that 1 had
not guessed before the connection of
the woman with Llllian'a secret ser
vice work.
“She's not active now," Lillian ex
plained, “but she's a loyal soul to me,
and your charges will be perfectly
safe with her, even If you have to
leave them for a few hours.”
“That's all right, then,” I said.
“When do you want me to start,
before you do?
J. •*rVo.” siie responded promptly. "I
want to get our friend, Monsieur
Flat Foot, safely on my trail before
jou start. I^et's see, that train
leaves at 7 approximately. That will
give me a lot of time after dark.
Will you tell Katie to,get that girl,
Mamie, over here? Tell her it's about
some work—and it is.” #
Clothes for the Children.
I gave her a startled glance.
''You mean to take three of those
children to New York with you” I
exclaimed, suddenly enlightened.
“And Mamie,” she returned. “That’s
the bait I’m going to hold out to her
~j-4 trip to New York. And Mamie's
indispensable to the. plan. She can
Wold those youngsters down so there
won't be a yip out of them. I'll only
need them for this Journey anyway.
I'll send them back tomorrow while
our friend cools his fiat feet.”
"Yes, tjieir sizes are almost provi
dential,” I said, "especially as this
sleuth probably never has seen them.
But what about their clothing?”
"That’s where you come in,” she
said. "Mamie'U tell you their ages,
and you've seen them ail. Can you
go down to Chicester’s in Bridge
hampton and get ready-mades for
them from the undies out without
measuring them? I don't want them
over here until almost time to start.”
"I'm sure of it” I said, for I have
a knack of estimating ready-made
sizes for children. "You’ll have to
have overcoats also, and caps.”
"I know it,” she said ruefully.
"This will be an expensive party, but
I don't know any other way to man
age it.”
"I didn't mean that” I flushed. "I
only wanted to be sure I had every
thing right.”
“You will have” she said reasurlng
ly. "I wish I had your head for de
tails.”
"Yes. you ought to wish for some
thing in mentality,” I scoffed. "You
have so little.”
She threw me a kiss, then turned
me round by the shoulders so that I
faced the door.
"We have no time for log-rolling,”
she said laughingly. "Please get
Mamie over here as soon as you
can.”
For Dr. Stastny.
Mrs. Ira, Porter entertained 12
guests at luncheon at her home yes
terday, honoring Dr. Olga Sastny,
who has returned to Omaha for a
brief stay and rest. Dr. Sastny plans
