Helen looked up as he spoke.
why, dear. this Is the day you
promised to go and select the new
oilcloth for the Kitchen"
Warren answered impatiently.
81 know 1t is, but when I have work
on my hands 1 can't get off for such
a thing as picking out oilcloth, can 1?
You women act as If you didn't have
any sense sometimes"
Helen flushed Indignantly. but said
nothing, and Warren fingered as
though he wanted to say something.
ITS funny you have to pick out
just the day I'm busy" he said. finally.
But I didn't know you would be

either. when you said you'd 60"
There was no denying this truth,
n Helen turned back to her break
fast as though the conversation was
finished. A choking sob was rising in
her throat, and she felt like retorting.
but she kept still valiantly fighting
for ~self-control. Her eyelids stung
n her hand trembled as she lifted
her coffee cup to her lips.
III go dear, If that will help" said
her mother.
NO, mother. I'll wait OF course.
Last time we had new oilcloth War
rem intisted upon going with me be-
fore 1 brought home anything so ugly
again, and that is the reason we were
going together. Warren doesn't credit
me with much sense sometimes" And
Helen turned away as the tears began
to roll down her cheeks.
She went into her room and dabbed
at her eyes. The sun was stream
ing In gaily and the breeze was light
and fresh. Somehow the weather was
too beautiful for domestic troubles
and yet Helen was always in hot
water lately. Warren hardly spoke
a word at meals and continually
growled at everything she tried to do
for him.
He had reproved Winifred severely
the night before and the child had
sobbed her heart out for a punishment
that she had found hard to bear.
Helen had tried to slip in and soothe
her, but as she a. risen to leave the
room Warren had remarked sneering-
ly:
IT have never known a time vet
that o haven't interfered when 1
nave spoken to that child. No Won
der she's spoiled"
But, Warren, she didn't do any,
thing, at least anything that she knew
was wrong"
That's right; take her part; we'll,

| I'm DONE" he concluded, throwing
the paper down and leaving the room.
The whole thing had come about
the spots Winifred had made with
her dirty little hands on Warren's
clean Laundry that had been left on
the bed.
ut was my fault IL anyone's," said
Helen to her mother as she undressed
Winifred and bathed her lace and
hands before tucking her away for
the night. 81 can't understand what
makes Warren SO touchy lately. He
never used to be that way"
Perhaps he has some business wor-
rtes," suggested her mother.
But we have h car n I thought
everything was splendid"
Something recently may have come
up You know times are hard and
ne did warn you about bills the other
night"
Helen said nothing more, but the
words sank deep If Warren a any
trouble that he was trying to bear
alone there vas ample excuse for his
short replies and his gruff manner
She had thought over II far into the
night and had slept late that morn
ing in consequence. She thought of
this now and resolved to try to help
Warren as much as she could. At
least, II he weren't willing for her to
help share the trouble she could stop
worrying over small things.
Il must so out and do some market
ing" said Helen after q few moments.
Cant you telephone?" said her
mother.
II could, but to tell the truth, I
want to get out in this wonderful
air"
Well all CO." said her mother. ct
certainly is too beautiful to stay in"
The walk in the brisk air, the
brushing up against other people, the
sunshine and the pleasant compan-
ionship did wonders in restoring
Helen to her usual good manner. They
went into a bakery and bought some
d~electable looking cream cakes for
lunch and Helen even bought a lit
tie box of cherries, although the price
was eXorbitant.

as they came in.
What did he want, Nora?" ques-
toned Helen.
I'VE wanted me to tell you that he
simply could not make it for this
afternoon, but he would go to-mor-
row, and hat he was sorry"
Wasn't that nice of him, mother"
said Helen happily, glad to be thank
full for small favors. The poor boy.
I hope he doesn't work too hard"

PURCHASING POWER
OF CROPS OWINDLES
Price Per Acre Increases But
Fails to Keep Up With
Some Necessities.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Feb. 81
The federal department of agriculture
has just issued a statement showing
the purchasing power of an acre OF
farm crops in 1913 compared with
1903. While the price per acre OF
several farm crops is shown to have
increased to some extent within the
past five years, the gain in price has
not kept pace with that of some OF
the necessities used by the farmer.
The report shows that the purchas-
ing power of an acre of wheat in 1909
was 98 pounds of lard while it was
only 81 pounds in 1913. In 1909 an
acre of wheat would buy 243 yards
Of calico while in 1913 the purchas-
ing power was only IFS yards. Forty
nine hoes could be purchased with
