WHY MADGE DETERMINED TO
TAKE MARION INTO HER OWN
PARTICULAR CARE.

1 asked the question of Lillian
quietly throwing off my hat and
wrap as 1 did SO Her eyes were
anXiously searching her little daugh-
ter's face but she gave me a signal
of assent with her head. and / went
swiftly out OF the room.
Luckily 1 am familiar with every
Granny OF Lillian's menage. so it
was but the work Of a few minutes
TO gather together all the things
thought she might need. AS / work
ed. my mind busted itself with the
problem which Marion presented.
knew that she was an intensely
nervous child, had heen so from
birth. And the strangeness OF her
upbringing. her separation from her
mother. her fathers indifference.
her loneliness. save for the feeble
grandmother whom she adOred--
but who couldn't take proper care
of her-had thwarted her chances
for normal. healthy childhood.
From babyhood she had been hey
grandmother idol and her grand
mother hers old Mrs. Morton be-
longed TO the emotional. hysterical
type Of women. and she petted the
child constantly and spoiled her out
rageOusly. And when Lillian final
~ regained control OF the little child
her mother heart was too hungry
for the baby of whom she had been
deprived so long 10 see that the lit
tie girl had the judicious letting
alone" which her taut childish
nerves demanded.
Now the grandmother lay dying.
and ] was sure that if the little
girl went through the awful eXper-
fence of seeing her grandmother
dead or dying-for death is a sight
no child should witness-the shock
would have lasting, perhaps ire
parable effects.
Lillian. I feared. was too alb
sorbed with her little daughter to
use correctly the keen judgment
which was habitually hers, and the
sight of Marian's pinchod. bloodless
face. her twitching eyelids, had
borne in upon me the conviction
that she ought TO be removed from
the house OF death as quickly as
possible.
I'm so Cold"
But the decision. the mental sub
mission 10 the opinion of others
which had been mine for many
months, chung like a hampering
hand TO my Thoughts. After all,
Marion was distinctly Lillian's bust
ness, not mine.
Then the selfishness OF my atti-
tude flashed upon me like a revela-
ton. Lillian, whether she were con-
sciOus Of it or not, needed aid-Lil-
liam, who had never failed me or

on the train the other day I
heard lot about brother and his
wife. and the girl who used to love
brother, and how she turned out.
II was very interesting.
The train was delayed by an acct
dent ahead of US. and we had TO sit
there and sit there and sit there and
sit there. / read the morning paper
through. from the headlines on the
front page 10 every Help Wanted
and Personal" advertisement. and
then [ looked out OF the window at
a lonesome little boy and a friendly
dog. I took the name on the sta
ton name board and saw how
many words could make out OF the
letters of it. II really was a bore.
And then. out Of the monotony
and the waiting, a voice suddenly
began TO trickle through 10 my con-
seriousness.
"Oh. yesl" said the voice. She
was crazy about him-just perfectly
crazy. and I don't think be did treat
her just exactly right; but it was
all for the best, after all.
He married a girl that was just
right for him. Ny. you could eat
off the floor. and dust-how that
woman does hate dust. She keeps
the house like a new pin all the
time. and you know the kind Of
housekeeper my mother was so you
can imagine just how Joe feels
about it.
Mary was an awfully good
hearted girl. Why. she'd give heI
brand new shoes away TO any one
who needed them. She did it once
when a tramp woman came 10 the
door with a little girl. Mary just
sat right down on the kitchen floor
and took of her shoes and gave

any other of her friends when her
clear brain and accurate judgment
were needed,
My cheeks burned with shame a,
my own vaccilauon. and, as / hur-
ried back TO Lillian's bedroom with
the articles l had gathered. I re-
solved that I would take the matter
OF Marion into my own hands
Just what 1 was going to DO
didn't know. Only one point was
clear meant 10 get her away
from the house and from the knowl-
edge Of her grandmother cOndi-
ton as soon as possible.
As / entered the bedroom saw
that Lillian already had undr essed
her little daughter and had put
over her night garments a soft warm
robe. But heavily covered as sh.
was. and with her mothers arms
closely holding her, the child was
murmuring family: "Oh, mamma,
I'm so cold" over and over again
she spoke the words, and I could
see her slender little figure tremble
with the nervous chill that had
seized her
tucked one hot water bag
against her back under the robe,
and laid the other upon the sheets
OF the bed. Then / held the tiny
glass OF restorative TO her lips.
Drink it, darling" Lillian said
tenderly.
And the child, always an obedient
little creature, swallowed the
draught with lips that trembled Wis
IDLY as she laid them upon the rim
of the glass.
Into Quiet Sleep.
Get into bed with her" I wills
pered authoratatively TO Lillian
and [ will pile the covers on. Then
I'll hurry back with a cup OF hot
milk. AS soon as we get her warm
she will be all right"
Lillian looked across her child $
head at me with eyes that were
both grateful and understanding
There was something more-an ap-
prOVal that was sweet indeed to me.
II was an expression which I had
missed from my friends eyes, for
which subconsciously / had longed
without knowing either that 1 did
so or why.
I brought the hot milk, saw that
Marion drank it, and waited quietly
by the bedside until the child's con-
vulsive twitching ceased and she
dropped into quiet slumber. Then /
rose and quietly removed the heavy
cover from both mother and child
She Will be all right now" 7
whispered. Don't attempt to leave
her. 1 will attend TO everything
Katherine wants"
I left the room, but not 10 go
straight to that of the sick woman
upstairs. For there had come into
my brain within the last moment
or two an audacious but wholly fea
sible plan for the care of Marion.
