your hospitality. OF course under
stand that your brother comes first,
and rightly, too, but We must claim a
part Of your time"
II had promised myself one OF two
evenings at your home" Alice an
swered quietly, "but I do not feel that
I ought to desert Bertie more than
that"
Then, for the first time, Blanch put
IN her little word: "Now, do not offer
your brother as an excuse. I have
been anticipating your promised visit
Tor long time, and mo brother is go
ing to rob me Of it. I shall come
around tomorrow forenoon, and If you
are not ready to go back with me, bag
and. baggage, I. will just take your
baggage, and then you will have to
come"
II do not see why you cannot see
your brother and visit with him just as
well at our house." put In Mrs. Mason.
''He is always welcome there"
Alice turned to her brother, remark
ing, "It is nice Of you to insist, and I
am more than grateful, but It must be-
as he says" Then she added prettly,
'He is my papa and mamma now, and
the cook and captain bold and mate Of

brig If he does not consent" laughed

send him a check for one hundred
