By HELEN KENDALL THE UNCERTAIN GUEST

Oh, the weary watch and wait for guests who do not arrive when they said they would Every hostess knows this inconvenience and annoy aEce, l suppose, but the suburban country roads is especially subject to the thoughtlessness which lies back of it. She wants to have a welcome and dainty meal ready for the city folk who are coming out by train, or the party motoring out from town-but when the appointed hour arrives and no guests do- the same, her heart falls lower than the hot mullins in the oven or the omelet aux fines herbes that is her master piece.
 In the good old days of long ago, when every country home had un- bounded food in the larder and plenty of servants to cook it, the un- expected guest or the belated one did not "put out" the hostess. But now adays the little suburban cottage often boasts no servant at all, and meals must be gotten ready ahead of time and served as soon as cooked, If the household Is to run smoothly. Very often a hostess will work like a fiend all morning, preparing lunch con for expected friends who turn up just in time for a dinner which she has. in her discoura cement, neg lected dismally.

 If you answer that you are bored what to talk about and that you never have any fun unless you go out with him, you do not love, him. ou lack the thing which means so much to happy marriage, and that is com panionship and the power to under stand each other. What would you do in Sour own home?
 The young couple who are truly in love can spend a delightful afternoon or evening in her home. This does not mean that they do not enjoy running about together bur does mean that they care sufficiently aobut each other to spend several hours together without the excite ment of other people or a show or a dance. They have something within themselves and they are happy to be together alone and exchange their thoughts.
 The girl who entertains in her home has the best opportunity to know whether she is going to be happy lever after" If the young man who Is attentive to her bores her, or is bored, within her own walls, she may know that they were not meant for each other.

 The girl who makes men take her to shows and suppers gets along very well. She gets the show and the supper, but it's the girl who enter tains 'em on dads veranda, in ma s living room and over the Sunday night supper table who gets 'cm for life.
 No girl is quite as attractive and charming as in her own home. There IS an atmosphere there, a beautiful stage setting for her which remains in a mans heart.

 She was eager to talk Of the young refcrmer now, while Donald was in gentle and uncrtical mood. His sympathetic attention moved her to continue.
 You don mind If I tell you some thing about him, do you, Donald?" Certainly not, dear. I want to kpCw of anything that interests you" well, he does," she hurried on. Just now, especially, he is up against bit of hard luck. I never saw him as companionable and lovely as he was this weekend. 1 know that be- ing at the lak, and away from cer- tams troubles was like bit of Para disc for hirl. And 1t had to end so soon.

and they made us stay for lunch" they cry merrily, as they dismount. Hope 1t hasn't inconvenienced you" Meanwhile, she is wondering dis tractedly how she is going to get two babies to bed, feed theim their bread and milk, visit with her guests and prepare them a supper of the dreary "leavings" from the luncheon In her heart is black rage against people who do not do what they say they will, and she hopes to goodness she never sees any of these particular friends again!
 So here is advice to visitors, whether to town or country! Take the train you saidNou would. If you find you cant do so, telephone your hostess at once-dont wait until half an hour before the time she will be looking for you and will have a meal ready! Arrive on time, unless a serious, unavoidable accident or mis- hap prevents you. Have pity on a woman who has laid her plans for your entertainment and sustenance, and has worked these out to the quarter-ho Your uncertain ap- pearance Is her certain distress.

 "Thal is what is worrying Ran kin?" Muir asked.
 "Yes. That is one of the things He is not worrying on his own ac- count-in way for he Is used to do- ing without things. But he is so honorable that it would trouble him terribly if he had to make anybody wait for money he owed"
 ",yaturally 1t would" Donald agreed. But is he sure that he can not pay what he owes-anyb ody?"
 "Oh, no!' the girl explained. He will not be certain for several weeks yet. And I know he will do the hon orable thing"
 Then, if you know that, you have nothing to worry about-on his ac- count-and neither has he," was the dry comment. "Come-we are nearly in deck. Let us go back to the car"
