to have her pleasure considered first of all, and with a last sigh she rose and went about her few duties, men tally constructing story that would bring forgetfulness of pain to little Margaret.
 Later in the day, while Margaret, lulled to sleep by her sweet tones, was seeing wondrous visions of fairies who made little girls we'll, Nan again fell to dreaming. But now her thoughts were happier. After all, wasn't it worth any sacrifice to bring to a little child'S face that look of eager joy with which Margaret had greeted her And wasn't it 2 wonderful thing to be able to ease the pain by the magic of her stories? Nan felt that it was, and though she thought once or twice of the picnics on the island, she felt well repaid.
 Suddenly she started. Could that be Dr. Gordon coming up the path? II was. With cheeks flushing rosily, Nan greeted him:

Why should he? she asked herself With so many other pretty girls in the crowd, some of them very accomplish ed, Nan felt that there was not much about herself to attract any man. New ertheless that did not lessen her en- joyment of the doctors society, and she had therefore been very anxious to go on the picnic this afternoon.
 For few moments Nan sat there, trying to get over her disappointment. Why should she always have to be the one to make the sacrifice?

 Madge, in an agony of shame at be- ing caught in the act of returning from running away from her own din- ner party, little realized what g pretty picture she made as she stood below, her cheeks becomingly flushed, her breath coming bit quickly between parted lips.

 Little Ted Morrison stood at the cot tage gate and waited for the reply of the pretty curlyhaired girl in the porch hammock. Nan's first impulse was to refuse, for she had made other plans. but she instantly checked her self. and cheerily called;
 ~AIl right, Teddy. I'll be over early, and we'll have some brand new ones today" and Ted went happily on his way.
 < Margaret was his little sister, just recovering from a long illness, and Miss Mans visits, with her never-fali- ing supply of stories, helped the child wonderfully in her struggle to win hack her health. Nan was usually de- lighted to go, but today she couldn help wishing there was someone else who could take her place and leave her free to carry out her own plans.

fc, and Madge slipped away.
 Dinner was half oyer. So far, ev- erything had been perfect. Salad course was next, then desert, then coffee and cigars in the living room by the open fire. Horrors! Had Tom re- membered?
 Catching his eye, she managed to convey, by lift of the eyebrows and an ineonspicuous two-fngered gesture as of one who removes g cigar from his mouth, the query. They had been married long enough for Tom to be fairly well trained in this delicate domestic art of signal and interpreta- tion. Once, he would have laid down his napkin, half risen, and said Something the matter, dear?" But to- night-utter blankness swept his coun- tenance, succeeded by an expression of infinite dismay. Madge gave him under the circumstances, the sweetest possible smile, and continued what she was saying to Mrs. Bronson. But

She hoped Tom would remember the cigars. Time was, in his bachelor days, and, she hoped, time would be in the future, when his pockets contained plenty Of nice, brightly banded smokes as a matter of course.
 But this year, what with the high cost of living and contributions to 8 fund known intimately as the "Pritch- ard Supey-Six Foundation" cigars had become things associated only with anniversaries, Sunday afternoon walk, or the occasional cashing of commission checks.
 Promptly at 6:25 the Bronson sedan drew up at the Pritehard curb. Madge pretty and slim, and softly gowned in crepe de chine, was waiting to greet her guests

beneath the ripping surface talk, her thoughts flowed deeply. Tom would keep. But what to do about the cigar ?
 While shifting plates for the salad, an idea occurred to her. Only a block below was a small part grocery, part stationery store, an unbeautiful spot on Lakeweod's residential street, but quite frequently g godsend to an un- expectedly visited housekeeper. She would start the salad, then, under pre- text of delay in the kitchen, run down to the store. get the best cigars they carried, place them in the humidor in the living room, and reappear from the kitchen as if she had been there all the time The whole affair would take less than five minutes, 2 time she might conceivably be detaiped in prep aration for the next course.
