"Who is this Aunt Piper? And

"she is sister or mine, Mrs. VIII
mot replied, for whom the rest of US
had ever an awed respect. Mary could
reason US out Of or make US give up
our most reCkleSS!y planned pleasures
where parental force failed. She was
one Of US, and yet not one Of us, upon
her own assured pedestal. Fred also
has sister Mary, SO Tor BoSe-Marles
distinction we call my sister Aunt
Piper. Piper was my maiden name.
Don't take to yourself the blame Of
our girls Punishment Paul. The real
motive for sending her to her aunt's is
10 break off a growing attachment
with Bobby Atwood. Marriage with
Bobby at present would mean for
ROseMarie the same sacrifices, the
sane struggle that Fred and | remem-
Der we'll My daughter must have some
thing better. Bobby Is but a passing
fancy which absence will obliterate."
Paul Hills arose. His fine face was
serious, his usual pleasing tone de-
dded.

The telephone called and the voice
Of his absent young friend dolefully
greeted him over the wire.
