the threshold to look in. 1t was not
bad room at all but typically coun-
tryish from the pale green walls to the
chromos over the bed. The bed was
good, however. and had n good spring,
and the room was comfortable enough.
Helen peeped into the bathroom and
found it quite modern, evidently late
acquisition.
And this is the other rooom I spoke
Of" the woman continued. walking
down the hall a short distance, and
throwing open a door of a room rather
pompously. Evidently she had decided
before hand that 1t would certainly
please these folks. Helen smiled little
as they followed the woman and peeped
into the room in question. 1t was
larger than the other room and had
twin beds of brass. highly polished.
Otherwise 1t was no better than the first
room, and that had the added attraction
of being next to the bathroom.
'I think We'll decide on the other
room" Helen said sweetly. You see
that is so near the bathroom that
lit makes 1T more convenient" And
with that decided they all went down
to the car
Now we'll run you around to the
house, wherever it is Warren said
to Frances, but, for Heavens sake,
don't spoil it all by asking us in."
NO." Helen said. you know you
promised, dear. We'll come up and
see you tomorrow and meet your
aunt"
"All right" Frances finally con-
sented. but l don't like the idea at
all. 1t seems so unfair to have brought
you up here and then use you that
way"
1T was our own fault that we came"
Warren said genially. The prospect
of decent bed at fairly good hotel
had made him more prone than ever
to be agreeable. They had been driv-
ing up wide street with houses on
each side and Frances leaned forward
eagerly.
There it is" she said "the one
with the rambler on the porch" And
warren drove up to the little house
Just as the door was opened by n
diminutive old lady, white haired and
sweet faced, who hurried down the
tagged walk before Warren could de-
posit Frances on the sidewalk and es-
cape. Their plans had not material
ized, and Frances for one looked de-
ctdedly pleased.

OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
THEIR MARRIED LIFE":

Saturday was perfect and the ride up
was perfect. Warren had determined
his route carefully and the trio reached
the little country town before dark.
"It looks like perfect duck of a
place." Helen said delightedly. as they
drove slowly along a shady street bor-
dered with naples.
And there's a hotel" said Warren.
turning the car suddenly to the left and
driving under a porte-cochere. The
place in question was neat brick es-
tablishment. with a large, comfortable
looking porch and "Waldron Inn" in
gold letters over the door.
Frances looked surprised. Really 1t
does look like a great place. she said
approvingly.
well you girls stay out here and
I'll go in and see what they have,
Warren suggested.
Quite a crowd had gathered at n re-
spectful distance to look over the car.
Helen quite naturally felt proud to be
the possessor of SO good a looking ma
chine and Frances whispered in her
ear:
II guess they don't see many cars of
this make up this way.
Well, 1t would be foolish to buy a
car like this for a country town" Hell

Warren returned at that moment and
began to haul down the suitcases.
Come on in" He vouchsafed, "and
pick out your room. No baths. Helen,
but you can have room right next
to the bathroom; that's not so bad
That's not bad at ALL" Helen said
delightedly. and the three went up the
wide staircase into the cool lobby where
the regular desk was placed. A woman
in a pink linen gown eyed Helen sus-
piciously, and Helen returned her glance
with some surprise. She had no idea
Such an arrangement seemed strange
until she stopped to think of it, and
then it seemed perfectly natural for
a woman to earn a livelihood that way
as any other.
Apparently Helen's ell-groomed ap-
pearance satisfied her, and she turned
away and came out from behind the
desk.
Did you want a room for the other
young lady?" she questioned.
No." Warren returned; lust one
room this young lady will stay with
relatives in town"
The woman looked at Frances
curiously. Evidently everyone knew
everyone else in a town so small as
this one. She was probably dying to
know where Frances was stopping.
Il have two rooms" the woman said,
