hadn't heard. The long silence irked
him. He pulled out his watch, looked
at it, and began winding it. He mend
ed the fire so that it would be safe
for the night; bolted a window. Ev-
cry minute or two he stole look at
her, but she was always just the
same. Except for the faint rise and
fall of her bosom, she might have
been picture, not a woman.
At last he said again, Come along,
Rose DEAR"
It'll be too late in October" she
said. "That's why 1 wanted to de-
eide things tonight. Because we must
begin right away" Then she looked
up into his face. SIT will be too late in
October" she repeated, unless we be-
gin now"
The deep, tense seriousness of her
voice and her look arrested his full
attention.
"Why?" he asked. And then, "Rose,
what do you mean?"
"We're going to have a baby in
October" she said.

old times with her old friends, in
Guiding her brother and sister, and a
sort of dismayed acquiescence in the
smoky seriousness, the inadequate
civilization, of the city of her birth.
Toward Rose herself, the contessa
was, one might say, studiously affec-
tionate. She avoided being either dis
agreeable or patronizing. Rose could
see, indeed, how she avoided it.
About this time the question where
Rose and Rodney were going to live
after their lease on the McCrea house
ended, had begun to press for an an
swer. October first was when the
lease expired, and it wasn't far from
the date at which they expected the
baby. They spent some lovely after
moons during the days of the emerg-
ing spring, cruising about looking at
possible places.
This was the situation when Har-
riet took hand in it. 1t was a situa-
ton made to order for Harriet to
take hand in. She'd sized it up at
glance, made up her mind in three
minutes what was the sensible thing
for them to do, written a note to
Florence McCrea in Paris, and then
bided her opportunity to put her idea
into effect. To her Rose was simply
well-meaning, somewhat inadequately

But she went steadily on. "You

MILKROOM is A NECESSITY
Particularly Desirable in Warm
Weather and Should Be Screened
and Kept Clean.

A milkroom is a necessity in dairy
ing, according to W. E. Tomson, in
structor in dairy husbandry in the
Kansas State Agricultural college.
A milkroom is needed at all times,
but is particularly important in warm
weather, pointed out Mr.. Tomson. Milk
must be kept away from flies. The
room should be tightly screened and
kept in a sanitary condition.
The milkroom affords good facilities
for keeping the milk cool. This is es-
sential because when the temperature
of the milk is higher than degrees
undesirable bacteria that cause the
milk to spoil in a short time are likely
to develop.
