 She was right about one thing" I said with @ touch of self contempt.
 Lillian glanced at me shrewd1y.
 You're off on another tack, now, aren't you?" she asked inelegantly I'll wager a cookie 1 can guess whats the matter now"
 ''It would be of no use for me to take the wager" l returned You always can read me-
 "A Whole AItnd.''
 "Thats because you are so trans parently truthful, my dear" she said tenderly, putting her hand inpulsively over mine. But, seriously, you shouldn't give Q, single thought to opening that letter. Your mother-in- law guessed that it was something you and I ought to handle or she wouldn't have sent it on"
 "But'-I said obstinately-"Gra Draper was justified in the low opinion she had of my honor If your theory is true, she sent the letter to Marvin on the chance that I would be dis honorable enough to open q letter that was not mine---''
 Did 1 say I had half 8 mind to shake you n minute ago?" Lillian de- nanded, rising and towering wrath fully above me. Well, it's a whole mind now, and if I ever again hear you mention the necessity of any more honorable dealing with Grace Draper than you would use toward mad dog running loose in the street, you'll wish you had kept your lips Closed.''
