TUESDAY.

When Mrs Hooper and Henry had
settled themselves comfortably in the
living room after Betty had been put to
bed and Roger and Helen were studying
their lessons on the table In the dining
room Mrs Hooper took up the question
OF buying the electric washing machine
on the installment plan.
you know how opposed I am to the
idea OF buying anything on installments'
began Mrs. Hooper as she unfolded
Helen's grey cloth coat which shs was
finishing with dainty touches Of hand
en,b1 derry, "but I've been almost per
surded in spite Of what I've always said
about other people who did It TO get the
new washing machine that way
well l can certainly see no objection
IA the plan." answered Henry, putting
down his newspaper, and, looking at his
wife with an amused smile, he continued,
"all the arguments you have against
buying things on the tnstaHment plan
certainly cannot apply to your case.
I've always considered II matter OF
principle" added Mrs. Hooper, and rot
one to be decided according to indl-
viddSl cases"
THAT'S just where you're wrong
Mary" insisted Henry. Your idea has
been that getting things on the install
ment plan led to eItrava gance and care
less buying and that women who did It
always lived IN an atmosphere Of debt"
yes, that is what I've always be-
lieved" agreed Mrs. Hooper.
''Wen. how IN tho world could that
apply to you with a life time Of syste-
matte living to your credit" asked
Henry.
"Oh. 1 don't know laughed Mrs.
Hooper. "Of course I won't be in any
danger Of INDUCING in an orgie of In
discriminate spending If get the electric
washing machine on the installment plan
instead OF buying It outright for cash
the way I've done, when anything for the
house hss been bought I guess just
feel guilty about taking advantage of
such q plan after the way I've criticized
other women in the nsighborhood who
ala it."
Henry laughed heartily as he turned to
the advertising pages Of magazine
whera pictures Of electric washing ma
chimes in action were sttractiyely dis
played.

enemies OF her father? Did this new
business relation between Pat and the
house Of Sturges mean anything SIMS
ter? Would it result in the hideous,
final break between Virginia and Pat
As for Neal, he was safe from want
now. But he had taken sides with the
foes Of the house Of Harrison. I knew
the pride of that family well enough to
fear that the breach between Neal and
Jim, between Neal and Phoebe, was now
chasm too wide for any bridging.
But the question to which my mind
circled back hopelessly was this:
why had Pat gone over to the sturges
Construction Company in the end? To
help Neal? To hurt Virginia? To fur
Their his own business interests 7"
All this whirled through my mind
while Pat was telling his story and Neal
was commenting on it; but when 1t came
my time to speak I managed to show no
trace of my worried thoughts. Instead
I said, expressing the one reaction 1t was
safe to make public:
"Oh Neal-this is so just right for
you that I don't know how to thank the
friends who have made it possiblel The
real estate business strikes me as the
big thing today, and I'm SO glad you're
to learn it. I suppose thereu be build
ing again. and you'll be there to watch
things start up. And to build Pat
Carlotta, you're making me very happy
when you give my brother his chance"
Say, it's pretty blamed lucky for me
that I have Neal to help me take about
ten jumps up the ladder" said Pat, gen.
erously. 81 need money-Ive always
needed 1t. But things never were right
before. Now-with this pal and side
partner, they are right Don't thank
mel"
Nor me-" Carlotta took her cigarette
from between her lips and waved the
whole thing away like smoke. 81 have
to be doing something. To work of sur
plus energy, you know. And there was
that little debt about Lootie and the
canteen. I haven't begun to pay you
yet, Mrs. Jimmie"
On that note our luncheon ended. The
big clock over the door pointed to s :15.
Virginia and Phoebe would be gone.g
But I had reckoned without feminine
carelessness in regard to time For when
we got to the lobby, there sat Virginia
alone.-Copyright 1921.

KEEPING HOUSE WITH THE HOOPERs

, think you have kept her so worried about
making her payments promptly on the
things she is always buying, that she be-
lieves you are some kind of superior
! person who could never be- tempted into
acquiring household possessions in that
fashion"
II really believe that Is the real reason
that I am hestitating," confessed Mrs.
Hooper, "and not because I don't honestly
think that in my case it is the sensible
way to make owning a washing machine
possible
"Well, you'd better stop thinking about
1t any longer and Just decide to go
downtown Saturday and pay the required
deposit on it and have it delivered be-
fore your next washday."
| 81 believe III do it," replied Mrs.
Hooper, because with the hot weather
coming and with the experience Of wash
ing those blankets which l just finished
today the certainty has been borne in
upon me that 1t would be foolish to wait
for months until I had assembled the en-
tire price of the machine, when / might
be using IT all the time that 1 am saving
the money"
"Wen, I'm glad that is decided" re-
piled Henry with satisfaction. I've been
worried at the idea Of your doing the
washing all summer without any me-
, chanical assistance If you insisted on con-
ttinuing without any laundress."
I've never had such easy times on
washday since poor old Marth died. SAIL
Mrs. Hooper, "as for the last six weeks
since Ellen left; and I'm sure the clothes
have benefited by the kinder treatment
they have had at my hands, after the
way she used to rub them and beat them
and throw them around lust watchin z
her used to worry me into q nervous
fragile, that tired me much more than
actually washing the clothes"
THAT may be all true" Henry re-
marked, as he pointed out one OF the
machines In the magazine, "but I'll be
much relieved when one of these labor
savers is installed IN the laundry dowR-
stairs to take your place at the wash
tub"
"All right We will pick one out sstur-
day afternoon, when you are at home to
help me select 1t and l will pay down
the surplus from my operating expense
account and arrange for weekly payments
on the balance"
As Mrs. Hooper refolded the pretty
little coat she had finished for Helen
and which was the last garment to be
added to her small daughters summer
wardrobe she concluded,-'T suppose
Henry this is the first step toward
having our house electrically equipped
as tho home builders are all beginning
to say, when they talk OF building new
houses planned to be servantless"
well, why not" laughed Henry teasing
ly," especially now that you promised
to be weaned away from your prejudice
against buying on the installment plan"

CHAPTER eek.


"And that's how Dalton Sturges Realty
Corporation came to be-" concluded Pat,
fiinging back his gray head with the old
spirited gesture and sending out a bril-
liant smile that embraced Carlotta, Neal
and me.
We were a strange quartet to be lunch
ing together. And it was stranger still
to know that in the lobby of the very
hotel where we were sitting Virginia and
Phoebe would meet at o'clock. But the
story Pat had just finished telling me
seemed strangest Of all.
On the day l had left him waiting for
Neal to reappear in the lobby Of the
Eversham building the germs of the idea
lodged in Pats brain. For a long time
the Sturges Construction Company bad
been trying to induce Pat to give up his
own real estate Offices and take a posi-
ton with them.
81 couldn't" said Pat. 81 couldn't
make it--then."
And it flashed across my mind that
he must have had strong sentimental re-
action against going into the company
that had been instrumental in running
Virginia's father.
In the final working out Of the plans,
Pats own company was made a sister
corporation of the big company. Pat
himself took Office in the sturges Con-
struction Company with the understand
ing that he was to divide his time be-
tween his new position and his own COM
pany. And the Dalton Sturges Realty
Corporation was left in charge of Neal
and an expert real estate man, long in
Pat's'employ.
Neal smlIingly took up the refrain with
which Pat had rounded out his storyi
And that's how the Dalton Sturges
Realty Corporation came to be-" And
added, Can you think Of anything bet

THERE IN MELODY
EVEN IN A COMB

Once poet said in verse that there is
melody in the winds If one could but
hear it.
1t remained for Austin and Delaney,
a vaudeville team now at the Lyric, TO
show the world that there Is melody
in an ordinary comb--the kind you use
on your hair.
One Of the men Of the tenn trots
out a violin, but the other member Is
not so blessed Not to be outdone by
his violin companion, he takes q comb
from his pocket and by placing a piece
Of paper over 1t, produces some snappy
and pleasing jazz melody.
This unique little stunt is one in
clever routine of melody and dances
which is being offered by Austin and
Delaney at the Lyric this week. Both
members of the team are good eccentric
dancers and their wit is clean. They
present their enjoyable chatter under the
head OF THE Syncopated Hotel" These
men have the ability to stop the show
any old time they desire and 1t is with
difficulty that the stage manager is able
to get the next act on the stage. so in
sistent are the Lyric patrons for more
