iVhat Is Katherine Keeping lla<U From Madge? j \t my question, Katherine looked pt IrsO* wrist watch, <*nd made a men tal calculation. J ">7o better time than now," she laid. "Just wait until I take a look (it my other patient. Perhaps she is (sleep also. I'll be back in a jiffy." i She whisked out of the room find In a few seconds came in again as briskly. i “She’s ns sound a deep as Is IJi* jlan," she said with a satisfied little pod. "So I have a chance to draw jny breath, also to listen to your tale. Pi »<**ed."' j Sly* dropped into a low chair, Itrrtehed lazily out, and put her nnds behind her head, serslbly grasping the opportunity to relax the nervous and physical tension which is hers, when on a case, t *‘l Don't Knvy You!" j "It won’t take long." 1 promised. Then 1 plunged into the story which ].illi$h bad told me of Hugh Grant* land's disappearance. 1 also told her <»f his whilom recretary, whose iden tity with that of the amnesia-stricken \\ if in my room, Lee Chow bad re t « iled so d. ,imalIcally.

When I finished she sprang to her feet, her face a telltale mirror pf the lively interest the story had aroused in her. “Mv word! What a sweet mess!" shoTcommented. “And Ullian so ill that she mustn't be allowed to put a stirring spoon into it! Well, I don't envy you the job ahead of you, dea»* h°fW You have a puzzle pattern cut • ut for you that will take some scheming to put together. I only wish there was something I could do to help you." • "There is," I answered hastily. “Don't you know’ that I couldn't face Urn ordeal ahead of me for a minute without the knowledge of your being hero on the job? You realize, don't you, what I virtually have promised to T.illian?” “To take up the search for Hugh C.runtland, yes." Katherine replied .dowly. “Some commission, I'll tell the world, especially with-" She halted abruptly and finished lamely, “the handicap which natural ly will arise In such an undertak ing."

That Dicky's name whs a part of '»h# first draft of her sen teiioe, I was as sure as if she had uttered tt. and I was conscious of in utterly unreasonable Irritation against my little kinswoman for ro nearly voicing the thought widen had been uppermost in my mind. Killian, facing the end of her own strength. hAd laid upon my shoulders • he task of finding Hugh Grantland. alive or dead, and of clearing his name of the terrible charge against it. The alternative which faced me of gaining Dicky’s approval of my task, or of keeping him in ignorance of It. appeared hopeless from whichever angle I looked at It. But It made me furious to think that even such friendly eyes as Katherine's had guessed my dilemma. With a contemptuous mental com parison of myself to the ostrich, I hastened into confused speech. “Watch That Girl Carefully.” “There are so many things for which i'll have to depend on you.” 1 said, “especially if 1 should have to leave the farmhouse for h while, as is very likely, < »f course. Mother Graham will he back in a day or two and ah* will run the house for you. She is never happier than when she is bossing Katie, you know, but l shall want you to watch that girl very carefully, for every slightest word of hers is important. One never knows when she may drop some due and I’ll have to depend on you to relay it to me.” “I'll watch her. never fear." Kath erine said quickly and there was that in her voice which made nie look quickly, furtively at her. It was as if she knew or suspected something she was not yet ready to tell me. My suspicion was not les sened by her quick turning of the subject. "By the wav. when do you expect your mother-in-law?” she asked. “I promised her I’d go for her to morrow,” I returned. She held up her hands wllh a the atrical little gesture of dismay. “My sainted aunt!” she exclaimed “Cmi t you possibly put her off for i not her day or two?” M'oDVlight. t “College Night” Tea.

One cannot have two many crisp, colorful little striped frocks, comfortable In cut, and re freshing In tappearance. For early spring wear, for school, street, Imsi ness or home they may be of flannel, which appears this season in a new variety of subtle collar combinations. Later on one will want several in cool tuh silk such as the model I show here in yellow and white, with collar of plain white and a black patent leather belt. The short sleeve Is kimono.

Dear .Miss Allen I am merelv an other damsel in distress, coming to you with a perplexing problem of the heart. It isn't really a problem, but 1 want to know If you think I am un leasonable in asking to be forgiven when I have forgiven the same fault w illingly in another. I have gone with a young man for three ye » s. rare a great deal for him and aiu practically engaged to him. While neither of us has altogether excluded other friends, we have not had many dates with other people. In the time that 1 have been going out with young men (about four years) three boys, besides this young man have each kissed me once. I am not proud of this record and T realize my mistake. But the young man is angry and hurt beyond measure. Yet he has kissed other girls and told me about it. It wasn’t easy for me to forgive and forget, but I did. Am I unreason able in asking that I be treated as charitably? It Is the old question of “should a woman tell?" I am inclined to think not. lie can't see that my forgiving him has anything to do with his forgiving me. Please tell me what you think. II. A. M.* T think you are altogether reason able in expecting to be treated wit Si the same lenience you have shown your friends, and that lie is unreason able in being "angry and hurt beyond measure.” Jle has no ground what ever for complaint, for your fault was a comparatively trivial one and not committed while you were engaged to him. I don't blame you for regret ting you confessed it to him. His lofty ignoring of the theory of re ciprocity Is one of those exhibitions of masculine egotism which women find so exasperating. .More About the Ten Kettle. Dear Martha Allen: Would say that vinegar put into a tea kettle will dissolve all lime. It does not re quire much, but if put on the stove and kept warm it will facilitate mat ters. F’ncerely, A. C.
