Helen Finds 1t Very Hard to Put
Up With MaEEie's SuIlen
UnWiIlinEuess.
: By Mabel Herbert


A S Helen hung up the TELEPHONE
~ receiver, Warren looked over his
paper with gruff:
What made you invite her for to-
morrow? Don't you know its Thurs
day-Maggie's day Out2'
No dear-not this week"
like to know whyl Didn't we have
the Stevenses here last Thursday
"Oh, so we did! exclaimed Helen
helplessly. why didn't you tell meT
Didn't have a chance the way you
were jabbering on there"
But, dear, what shall I do about tip
well you've tsked her to dinner
haven't you? Since We can't have din
ner here Wen have to take her out"
It would mean eight or nine dollars at
least, and Miss Merrill would much
rather have a home dinner. She lived
in an apartment hotel and had often
told Helen she was sick Of restaurants
MagEie's Attitude
Just now she had called up to say
she was leaving for the south Satur-
day and Helen had thOughtlessly asked
her to dinned for tomorrow. Maggie
could prepare the salad and the des-
sert before she went off She would
ask her about it now
3 Dinner was almost ready, and when
Helen went into the kitchen, Maggie
was Dreaming the potatoes
Maggie, I forgot tomorrow was
your Afternoon off, and I've just asked
Miss Merrill for dinner. Don't you think
you could fix things before you go so
I could get dinner without much
trOUble?7
We'll, I never get away from here
till 2 o'clock-takes me all morning
to do the work. I don't see where I'd
have any time"
Then she launched into a long ex-
cited argument about how she had
planned to go to South Orange to-
morrow afternoon. and If she stopped
to fix things for dinner she could not
get off at all; how with this big apart
ment and everything to do she never
had a moment to herself; how she
could not slight her work and could do
no more than she did
Above everything else Helen hated
an argument or discussion of any
kind, and now she interrupted her with
a sharp:
Helen is Angry
Now. don't begin all that, Maggie,
I'm not complaining Of your work
As long as you have your own way,
Won do it very well. know that
and I try not TO interior with you.
But the few things I DO ask Of you I
want done without all this discussion"
But I'm just telling you ma'am that

YOU want me to stay in tomorrow and
get dinner, why III have to stay"

And Helen flounced out Of the kitchen

to realize that Maggie dominated her
more and more; that she was getting
almost afraid tc ask her to do anything
for fear of starting one Of her long
arguments or reasons why she coUlO
