From outside, m the street. there came the sound of an automobile. A horn honked-honked again.
 Emmy ran to the window in the hall-the window that looked down into Flower street. There, in the narrow paved road, stood . small. shining. open car.
 And in the small. shining car. with her upturned face as pink as a rose against the grayness of Flow CT street. sat little "Lovey" Sinclair.
 "Perry!" Emmy called. Its Low ey Sinclair-for you, I suppose" Good Lord" he said under his breath and ran down the stairs, slipping into his blue coat as he ran. Emmy saw him go out to tile car. After minute or two Loyey leaned forward and opened the door of it. She seemed to be trying to persuade Perry to get into it with her. After another minute, he did get in, just as he was, without cap or an overcoat. They drove away. and Emmy went back to her room to finish dressing.
 After vespers we'll go ont to Bratenahl to see how Uncle Bill is. ' Mrs. Milburn said a second later coming up the stairs. Emmy knew that at last she had screwed up her courage to the point where she was going to ask Uncle Bill for the house.
 "Therc's plenty Of cold roast bee1 your father. and Dan." she went or talking as she moved to and fro ir Ter own room while she dressed Dear me! asked Dan to put g little backing on these shoes for mo yesterday when he was doing hi' own-and he forgot 10 do it. Oh well--'
 Presently Emmy heard her gt into Perry's room. She heard tn. squeak of the closet door that hat the mirror set in it.
 Then. like flash. Emmy remem tered the letter--the "lmpy" letter Of course. her mother hadn't seel 1t yet. and she would just stroll in pick it up, and stroll out with again carelessly. naturally. Thel she would tear it into a hundre,

 Andical xllidplnt6

Philadelphia, Oct 1l LR --- The greatest police shakeup in the his- tory of American municipalities. 70 extensive that 1t will amount to the formation of nearly an entirely new force. l. planned by Mayor Harry A. Mackey in an e6ort to rid the bureau of "grafters" as revealed by the grand jury investigating or. gantsed lawlessness and police cor ruption.
 After ordering the suspension and trial by the civil service commission of three police inspectors, lS cap tains and one detective declared by tho grand jury to be ''unnt to hold any public office" the mayor an- ncunced today that he had worked out plans for | complete reorgani- xation of the bureau of police. Boundary LAnes
 The reorganization will include . revision of the boundry lines of po- lice districts 70 that they no longer will correspond with the borders of city words. IT was suggested by the grand jury and Mr. Mackey said he. was convinced 1t would bs ono of the most effective moves In di. vorcing the police from politics. Mayor Mackey's plan contem- plates the dismissal of every mem ber of the force against whom even . suspicion of dishonesty has been directed by the srand jury and tho d.tmissal or demotion of every man not reached or exposed by the inves- tigation. but whose record shows derelicttons of duty and inefticiency.
 Mr. Mackey said his reorsantsa. ton plan would be put into cfkect "as soon after election as possible. q To do 70 earlier, he said might, in view of the unusually heavy vote expected. result in great confusion at the polls.
 | Trial Sooo
 The mayor announced that the three police inspectors and lS cap. tains cited n "unht" in the grand jury's presentment, because of their alleged inability to explain huge bank deposits in their names would be brought to trial before the civil service commission at the earliest possible date"

beside Perry's dresser. and the let ter was in her small hardened hands! She was reading 1t.
 Mother! Give that thing to mel Emmy flew to her and tried to take t way from her.
 But Mrs. Miiburn shook her head Still holding the thing in her handa she tore 1t in two. 6he tors 1t again and again and again. The unall bit, fluttered into Perry's waste basket
 She picked up the waste basket and put 1t into Emmy's arms-
 Take all thls paper out into the yard and burn it," she said. Don't keep one piece of 1t, Emmy. under stand!"
 Her voice was firm. but . look ot unhappiness had dragged down the corners of her mouth, and her chin quivered a little.
 However. by the time Emmy had burned tho paper and come upstairs she was herself again. The look oi misery and pathos was gone from her face and she was brushing her long brown hair before her mirror with firm. brisk strokes. Emmy" she called, 'come in here to me 8 minute" Emmy came in. and stood with her back to the closed door.
 Did anyone besides yourself sec that letter"
 Perry showed 1t to me- Emm, answered. Tt was put on his dcsh down town my mistake" Mrs. Milburn nodded, getting into . black taffeta dress that once had been the glory of Marianna's ward ] robe.
 Well. you're not to think badl, of your father because of that let | ter" she said. buttoning the hisl collar around her throat. "A mar like him, good-looking and goot company. has many a temptation put in his way. And remember tha this woman, whoever she ts. sen the letter to him. We don't knov that he ever wrote line to her. Sh was probably 'ust chasing him. sending letters to his office! Sh must be bold thing!"
 Emmy could only marvel at her.
 'I'll speak to Perry about this, she added. You are never to spea of it again, to anybody. I neve want your father even to know tha there was such a ietter!'
 MT. Milburn was asleep on tn sitting-room couch when they wen downstairs. His face. flushed an smoothed with his sleep. did io look much older than Dams face. was the face of a man who ha never had to worry or strive - tn face of a man Nho has had all hi worrying done for him by somebod else.
 Mrs. Milburn unfolded the afgha that lay across the foot of the coucl She covered him with it, tucking down around his shoulders. "He catches cold 50 easily" sh whispered to Emmy. shutting tn street door behind him softly so n not 10 waken him.

 Perry did not answer. He was sitting at his brown deal table, and he did not even look up from q paper that lay before him. He very seldom spoke of his father in any way at all. But as Emmy was go- ing out of the room he turned his head and called her back from the doorway.
 "Shut the door behind you," he said: "I want to show you some thing"
 He showed her letter and an en- velopc that he had in front of him | on the table.
 ''This was laid on my desk at up- still-Unger's the other day by mis- take. And by mistake I opened it. Look at it." He handed both bits of paper to her. The envelope was addressed to "Charles D. Milburn. Esq.," arc the letter began. "Chucky darling. It was from a girl who signed herself 'Impy.' and it was love letter pure and simple.
 With a sick. 1izzy feeling Emmy laid 1t down upon the top of Perrys dresser. Not knowing that she dil it, she brushed her palms together as If filth were on them.
 How rotten--how simply rotten!" she said. "Our mother-'
 Perry nodded. He was thinking the same thing that she was think ing--that their father had put an- other woman m the place that be- longed to their mother. Another woman who signed herself 'lmpy."
 She could picture such woman small and young and impish. Silly. too, with that "Chucky darl- ing"
 T suppose that's where he is at night when he goes out in taxicabs." !" she said. thinking aloud. With 'lmpy.'"
 But Perry shook his head. He was staring out into the branches of the sycamore tree with his blue eyes that never let you know what he was thinking.
 "No. Not always" he said. Some times he plays poker with some men in place down on St. Clair street that they call the hole ::a the wall. Fathers asked me to play there two or three times"
 And did you?"
 He shook his head. T guess l'T a milk sop. I hate cards"
 But he did not look like d milk sop, sitting there with his cottor shirt moulded by the hard muscle: beneath it. with his big shoulders his lean tanned face, his Ion: straight legs thrust out before hin under the table.
