Side of Kitchen. Showing Work Shelf, Dress
er. Gas Range and Inoinerafor

And So" added Philippa, "the servant
problem is solved with a rocking chair and
bit of bright chintz. The other women in the
manor have great difficulty in getting servants
TO stay. but it's just because they don't give
them attractive surroundings. II a girl gives
up the white lights of Broadway she must
have something to look at beside bare walls
and the kitchen sink. | even keep story book
or two with the cookbooks in here" she added
pointing TO the book shelves with their chintz
curtains which hung on the wall over Mary
Ellen's head.
Now, let's come away from the living part
of the kitchen into the workshop Philippe
suggested.
In the corner nearest the row of windows
and on the dining room side of the room
a beautiful white enamel kitchen sink, with
two drainboards. There was a triangular
sink strainer in the sink. Over the sink was
a narrow shelf with the cooking clock on it
and two sink brushes hung under it.
The remainder of that side of the room was
taken up by large dresser, such as one sees
in every English kitchen. This was painted to
match the other woodwork and il had glazed
doors for the upper part. The cupboards IN
derneath had panelled doors, and there were
two drawers which were partitioned of 10 hold
the knives forks and spoons. The cupboards
had each three shelves, on which the table
linen and dish towels were kept.
The upper part was filed with the china and
glass for table use. Standing as it did Just by
the door, the dresser was as convenient as If
it had been in buffers pantry, and the china
made an attractive bit Of color against the
putty colored background.
On the side of the room which is at right
angles to the sink and dresser is the work
bench, which runs the entire length OF the
room. There is a window near either end
which gives excellent light TO work by. There
are plenty of side brackets carefully placed SO
that the light will fall the different sections
Of the work bench"
The section Of the counter shelf IN the fur
thermost corner has top Of Carrara glass
for mixing. Underneath this is a good
sized cupboard with panelled doors, IN which
extra supplies are kept. Beside this mixing
shelf is a large double dresser or cabinet of the
same pattern as that used for china, except
that the doors are panelled instead Of glazed.
The section of this cabinet nearest the mixing
shelf is used for the various condiments and
materials used in preparing the food, and Tor
the lighter cooking utensils. It has two draw
ers. which contain the following articles:
Large wooden spoon.
Two mixing spoons, iron retlnned.
One large wooden spoon.
Two kitchen tablespoons.
-Four kitchen teaspoons.
set Of measuring spoons.

terfeit 500 treasury notes on the
city banks"
The old man, his hands grasping
the arms of the chair, tried TO hold
himself together He directed one
look at Maryel-reproachfu pleading,
a lost look. His were the eyes of a
man who saw a stranger enter his
presence and bring a stately fabric
into the midst of sudden devastation
and ruin.
"Where-where is my nephew" his
lips framed, rather than uttered,
How came he to find the notes."
1t was an admission. and I noted
Marvels lips settle grimly-a point
scored, start made.
If you had the notes in this house"
he ventured audaciously, what of the
plates from which they were print
ed?"
You know all! Then it is-ruin!"
broke in a despairing cry from the
old mans lips
"Quick, call someone" directed
Marvel, as buckingham fell to one
side. \ spasm convulsed his frame
and he lay rigid and speeches.. My
friend had lifted him to an easier posi-
ton, while | FASTENED to the hall and
advised the servant there of his mas
ter's condition.
We waited until after a physician
had been called. He shook his head
seriously while they placed the mil
lionaire on a couch. Then he went
to work on him. His attitude be-
came more reassuring as the patient
recovered consciousness and looked
about him in a bewildered way. Then
as his eye fell on Marvel the old
fright or fear, terror or apprehension,
or whatever it was, came back into
his face.
Take" he urged, "a blank signed
check. Fill in for any amount, only
save-save my family from shame"
And the plates?" gently but firm
" persisted Marvel, waving back the
preferred check
"Come-come-" the tortured
tones grew more feeble, when Il
send for you"
We saw that he was going into an
other sinking spell Marvel hastily
summoned the physician, and we
passed down the hall and out of the
house. Silently my friend led the
way to the machine awaiting us at
the corner Of the next street, reached
his Office, dismissed the chauffeur and
nodded a casual adjeu 10 myself
could nos resist an impulse of in

under his arm With the animal, he
led the way to an auto. and we pro-
ceeded back to the Central National.
The city center streets were com
paratively deserted, as the business
crowds had gone homewards some
time since. Marvel carried the dog
to the barred front of the bank, set
the little animal on the pavement and
returned to the machine
Just follow that dog" he ordered
to the chauffeur, and fixed his eye
closely upon the object of his interest.
The fox terrier crowded through
the barred gate protecting the en-
trance to the bank, ran up to the
great bronze doors and lifted it's head
and hoWled. Then it shifted around
in a circle, came out to the pavement,
threw its nose up in the air in several
directions and trotted down the street
on a bee line.
There could be no doubt that the
clever animal knew the way home,
for it proved never at fault, never
hesitated, and buckled down sturdily
as if knowing 1t had a long jaunt
ahead. This proved true. 1t made only
square turns at corners, and gradually
left the business center for the better
residence portion of the city.
Keep close" directed Marvel to
the chauffeur as the animal reached a
broad boulevard and increased its
pace. Follow" he ordered addition
ally, as the dog suddenly diverged
from its course and turned down
broad alley. Then. as our forerunner
reached an iron fence inclosing a gar
den and crowded through between
two pickets, Marvel spoke one quick.
imperative word: Stop" leaped out
of the machine and ran up to the
fence
l could see beyond him. The dog
had burst into a joyful bark, and al
