Even if you do, she could sleep on that couch in the library." "She wouldn't be comfortable on that. She's very limy about her bed." "Then why can't she go to a ho tel?" "Von know Aunt Emma! After paying for her teeth, she'll think she can't afford it" "Well,. it doesn't seem fair they should all make a convenience ol staying here when they come to town," flushed Helen. "I'm always having some of Warren's relatives they've all been here over and over again. Aunt Emma, Uncle Ned and Coutin Minnie!

It was an impotL tion! The whole family simply used her! Mie nmt think of some ex one why she could not have Aunt Emma, In a flash, it came!; Helen's in. genuity rarely fi led her, Sue would pretend that this telegram luj just come! As she must hate Janet the could not have Aunt Emma. The date would (lift betray her? Hut a haity scrutiny of the blurred stamp was reassuring. The date was undecipherable. And Carrie's sharp tongue had long ago anispoiiiied Janet, they neither visited nor corre sponded an added assurance that l.er rue would not be discovered. At always in an emergency, Helen's mind worked fast. She was framing a plausible exeme for every possible contingency. If Carrie learned that Janet had not come another tele gram saying she had been delayed could be invented. Darting noiselessly out to the hall, he slipped the telegram under the door, then hurried back to her own room where Carrie was waiting im patiently, "Mrs. Stevens wanted the address of an upholaieffr," apologetically. ' "Well, will you write Aunt Emma cr shall I?" with crisp Jinalitv. "Write her what?" flamed Helen. "That she can come liere. The next time she can atay with me but I really can't have her now." Helen was standing by the" dresser playing with the cord of her electric curler. "Very well. Carrie, I'll write her," with well feigned reluctance. "But I really think Isn't that the bell?" "I didn't hear it. When you write, say 'Bobbie's had the whooping cough and I'm very much upset but I'll write her in a few days." "I'm sure that was the bell. Anna's so deaf," hurrying out to the hall. When she came back she was scanning the telegram. t "From Janet!" Then with simu lated dismay she read aloud the mes sage.

Helen wanted to say that it was the who had entertained Aunt Em ma on both her other "teeth" so journt, but her rue having worked successfully, she generously refrained from this remark. A bang of the front dor and heavy slept through the hall. ' Hello. Carrie! What brought you in?" was Warren's brik greeting. How'a everything?" "All right, except that we have to entertain Aunt Emma for a week or to. Robbie's hardly over the whoop ing rough and the whole place is up set. I came in hoping Helen could have her." "Why. I guess we can manage it. can't we?" ' "I'm sorrv. dear, but we can't. I jumct got a wire froh Janet saying she's coming in town tomorrow and wants to stay here. "Again?" grumbled Warren. "Why she was jnt here Iat month. Al that rate she'll meet herself coming back." "Last month! Helen didn't tell 'me that. I always knew that Janet had nerve. Here's her telegram." Carrie handed it to him from the dresser. "That's funny!" puirled Warren. "That's just what she wired last time." "I suppose she has a formula." laugheft Helen nervously. "If she wants to keep it to a few words she can't vary it much." "Hm-ni, that is funny." Carrie had picked up the enevlope that had flut tered to the floor, and was scrutiniz ing something on the back. "What is it?" asked Helen, tensely apprehensive. "A list of groceries in your writ ing. .'String beans, onions, soup, vege tables, rice and baking powder.'" she read aloud with derisive emphasis. "Just when did you make that lict, Helen?" ' ' .
