Shaking with laughter, llttlq Mrs, Durkee stooped and laid her babv granddaughter In Junior's arms. "The size of him!” she murmured in my ear as she straightened her self ftgain while Alfred unobtrusive ly coiled himself In front of my small sen that there might be no possible danger of a tumble for the precious bundle the boy was holding. The apprehensive father mlghl have saved himself the trouble, how ever. With a little rush of maternal pride, I saw that Junior, but little past his own babyhood,' yet so fun nily precocious that one Is apt tc forget how few years are his, held the tiny new baby In a firtp protect ing clasp that nothing save force could loosen. I think* we all realized that at the same moment and transferred our attention to the ludlclous appraising look llie small boy was bestowing upon tlie bundle in Ids arms, which he just had heralded as the "girl," about whom Katie was forever teas ing him. “Do you hear me?” he shouted, putting tits fare down close to that of the baby, evidently under tlie Im pression t hat the wonderful new comer was deaf. "You're my^ girl. Katie!" imperatively. "Please cotie here, is this the one you said?" Katie.•scarlet faced and half hys terical from choking bark her gig gies, came over to him promptly, a^d Alfred, springing to bis feet, mo Honed her to take tlie place he had occupied.

"You no find bet ter vun dan dees vun eef you tousand miles.” lie pondered the assurance for a few- seconds, thpn nodded his head gravely. "All right," lie said sattsfiedly. "I ll lake her home. Ma ma, please start the car." "Oh. young T.oehlnvar Is come out of the west!” Alfred murmured and then added in even a low-er tone: "Mrs. Madge, this Is decidedly Vour cross word puzzle. I’m out of It." "Coward—coward!" I chanted. "If this is going to be your attitude to ward your daughter's suitors—” "I II Take Her Homs. "Suitors'" be retorted. “Who said anything about suitors.

I'.css her baby heart!” she crooned, cuddling the tiny creature close against her shoulder. "Was her all frightened all by her loney wifout her old grandmother?" Junior struggled to his feet, his face bewildered and angry. "What's the matter with her?" he demanded. "Temperament, deah boy," the young lady's father informed turn, smiling. "Youll learn more about it later on. She probably objected to your cave man tactics. They're a trifle out of date this year.” "Stop teasing him. Alfred,” Mrs. Durkee and I uttered the words to gether, hut the command fell flat, for my small son paid no attention what ever to Mrs. Dnrkee's teasing. Instead Junior contemplated the screaming infant with hard (bright eyed attention. He was all uncon scious of the fact that we were watching him, and after a tense sec ond or two, turned away with a lofty uir and laconic comment which con vulsed us almost to tears. "She needs a spanking,” he said. "Take her away. 1 don't want her that way. When she can be good, I'll .take her home." "Men have been done to death for slighter cause than that, my lad," Alfred began when lie could control his visibles, but I put up a warning hand. I had seen, what the others had not. the quiver of m.v little lad's lips as he marched toward the door, and f realized that though lie did not know the meaning of the words, his sensitive little soul resented the guy ing. friendly though it was. So I was not surprised to see the sturdy little figure first falter and then turn and run to me. burying his head in my lap with a loud wall. For an astonished second no one spoke.
