over Tanlac than Mr.. Cooper himself.
"As previously stated, Mr. Cooper
contends that nine-tenths of the dis.

which produces faulty digestion and

In referring to the unprecedented

Rose stopped brushing her hair and
demanded to be told why not. She
had been getting on all right up to
now, hadn't she?
"Why, just think" said Portia,
what mother herself had gone through
when she was your age: put herself
through college because her father
didn't believe In higher education -
practically disowned her. She'd
taught six months in that awful school

abused and ridiculed. And she was
working hard enough to have killed

lamb, you never really had to do any
thing In your life. If you felt like
it, all right-and equally all right IL
you didn't. You've never been hurt

CHAPTER w.
How Il Struck Portia.

1t was Just a fortnight later that
Rose told her mother she was going
to marry Rodney Aldrich, thereby
giving that lady a greater shock of
surprise than, hitherto, she had ex-
perienced In the sixty years of a
tolerably eventful life.
Rose found her neatly writing a
paper at the boudoir desk In the little
room she called her den.
Mrs. Stanton said, "What, dearT
indifferently enough, just In mechani-
cal response of the matter-of-fact in
Election Of RosalInd's voice. Then she
laid down her pen, smiled in a puzzled
way up into her daughters face, and
added: my ears must have played
me a funny trick What did you sayr'

I are going h. Be married"

told of his labors in drafting a new
have been one of the most fascinat-
ing occupations in the world, un-
til he told her how 1t had drawn him
into politics, and then how after an
election a new states attorney had Of
fered him a position on his staff of
assistants.
In a sense, of course, 1t was true
that he had, as Frederick would have
put 1t, forgotten she was there.
The girl knew he had forgotten, and
her only discomfort came from the
fear that the spell might be broken
and he might remember suddenly and
stop.
In the deeper sense-and she was
breathlessly conscious of this, too
he hadn't forgotten she was there.
He was telling it all because she was
there-because she was herself and
nobody else. She knew-though how,
she couldn't have explained-with
that intuitive certainty which Is the
only real certainty there is, that the
story couldn't have been evoked from
him In just that way by anyone else
in the world.
At the end of two years in the
states attorneys office, he told her,
he figured he had his training and was
ready to begin.
II made just one resolution when
hung out my shingle," he said, land
that was that no matter how few
cases / got. wouldn't take any that
weren't interesting-that didn't give
me something to bite on. / wasn't
willing to be bored for any reward
they had to offer me. It's cynical to
be bored. It's the worst immortality
there is. Well, and never have been"
1t wasn't all photographed and
| narrative. There was q lot of his
deep-breathing, spacious philosophy
of life mixed up in 1t. And this the
girl, consciously and deliberately,
provoked. 1t didn't need much. She
said something about discipline and
he snatched the word away from her.
"What is discipline? Why, it's
standing the gaff - standing 1t, not
submitting to 1t. It's accepting the
facts of life-of your own life, as they
happen to be. 1t isn't being conquer
ed by them. It's not making masters
of them, but servants to the underly-
ing things you want"
She tried to make a reservation
there-suppose the things you wanted
weren't good things?
But he wouldn't allow 1t. "What-
ever they are" he insisted, "your de-
sires are the only motive forces
you've got. No matter how fine your

possibly occur to you now to say to
yourself: Poor old Portia! She's al
ways been jealous because mother
liked me best, and. now she's just
green with envy because I'm going to
marry Rodney Aldrich.'"
She wouldn't stop to hear Roses
protest. II know it couldn't" she
went on. "That's what l say. And
yet there's more than a little truth in
it, I suppose. Oh, I don't mean I'm
sorry you're going to be happy be-
lieve you are, you know. I'm just

Now, kiss me and run along to by-by !

The wedding was set for the first
week In June. And the decision, In
stantly acquiesced In by everybody,
was that 1t was - be as quiet - as
strictly a family affair-as possible.
Indeed, the notian of even a simple
wedding into the Adrich family left
Portia rather aghast.
But this feeling was largely allayed
by Frederica's first call. Being a cele-
