always has failed"
why don't you write to Mrs. Rawn
and ask her for the recipe?" asked
young Halsey soberly.
That is not practical" rejoined Mr.
Rawn icily, "eyen did know that
lady's present address; as do not"
His daughter sat gazing straight at
him, under her heavy brows, but made
no comment. Grace had not improved
with years. Her face was heavy.

corners of her mouth turned down,
and deep vertical frown-Wrsnkses sat
between her dark eyebrows.
But do not wish that same men,

All, hero!
Now, Grace" he continued later,
turning toward her. 81 know very we'll
you're good housekeeper."
"She is that" Halsey nodded. Con-
tinually he forced himself into such
approval of his wife as he could COM
pass. Continually he refused compari-
sons.
Precisely, and skilled in all the
dishes which the late Mrs. Rawn had
as specialties. You do not know how
things are running here, Grace.

am deprived of what l really want.
Grace, need a housekeeper!"
Surely, Pa. Why don't you hire
one?"
"How much better off would be in
that case? None in the least. No, l
want you. You'll have to come over
here to liye!"
The young couple sat gazing at him
for time before making reply
That's impossible, Pa" said Grace.
Il have home Of my own, and 1t is
more than twenty miles from here"
John Rawn raised hand. Il have
thought all that out. You reason now,
as SO many do, when any distinct
change in life is proposed to them.
You let the little things outweigh the
larger ones. 1t was a fault your moth
er had Now the large matter, the
really important thing, Is this-that |
can not be allowed to live on here in
this way with all these annoyances.
Too much depends upon me, In bust
ness, for me to have the quiet and
peace of my life interfered with. I've
got to have clear head-especiall
on Saturday. Now, then, if you can
step in here, my daughter, and estab-
lish in some measure the sort of life
have always been used to. evidently
that Is your duty, and you ought not
to balance against 1t the small incon-
veniences which that course would
cause you and your husband. I'm
quite sure you can teach that chef"
But, Mr.. Rawn, I've got to be at the
factory almost day and night" broke
in Halsey.
Precisely. l do not mean for you
to make your home here, only Grace
You'll have to stay on where you are.
OF course, you can come here at
times to report, at least once or twice
week-say Friday night. Very much

how much / value you, how much ]

depends on you, our success as com

Halsey muttered something under
AS breath and turned away. His at
t:tude angered Rawn to the point of
forgetting himself.
Never mind what you think about
it, young man! It's what / think
about it that counts. Grace belongs
here, anyhow. She will have wider
life with me- It's time she had some
things which she has never known. 1t
may be necessary for US to travel, to
see something of this country and Eu-
rope. Besides, the child needs care
All these things cost more money than
you can afford, young man. Don't try
to balk me in what suggest. 1t is
obviously the right thing to do
But how long"
"Indefnitely!"
''And you want me to break up my
home indefinitely? Well, must con
fess don't in the least see it that
way, Mr.. Rawn."
You're selfish, and that's why you
can't see it, Charles. Above all things

your wife. but only helping her to
better grade of living. Meantime. of
