Adelaide looked frightened, but Katie
came in then-they were at luncheon
and nothing more was said.
It was that night after she was In
bed that Adelaide slipped into her room,
her finger on her lips.
I'm glad you said that today about
your father. She thinks the sun rises
and sets on him. And the way he's
treated her!"

You mean, she cared for him as

Missile clenched her hands.

THE very thought Of him made her
sick. But she had to work too hard.

shake. "She Just got tired"

or so, with coarse features and furtive
dark eyes. Except to her mother, who
was slightly deaf, she spoke in q low
voice; there was indeed always some
thing rather stealthy about Adelaide,
the secretiveness of a highly nervous
woman, who was never able to cali her
soul her own.
Before your grandmother comes
down." she began and stopped. Before

ask you something. Please don't speak

Missile stiffened.

1T is an old trouble" said Adelaide.
"And she is an old woman. You owe her
that. Your father Is different. She will
like to hear about him.
Not what have to say!' said Missie,
and was instantly sorry. But to her sur
prise she saw quick CLEAN in Adelaide's
eyes. as If the speech had pleased her.

in her lap, waiting for she knew not

"f1l write to her, mother"
Again:
You do not look like your father"
Mother always thought did"
We'll, you do not said Mrs. Colfax,
sharply.
Missile caught a warning glance from
Adelaide.
In the long periods of silence. when
the only sound would be the click Of
knitting needles, the rustic Of Adelaide's
papers as she rolled them, the hiss Of
escaping gas from a lump of coal In
the fireplace. Missiles thoughts ranged
far af1eld. She thought Of Ellen on her
wedding trip. She was vaguely afraid
for Ellen. Men were hard and cruel, and
not to be understood. Suppose she had
a baby. and then Tommy went OF and
left her?
But even that might be better than
this, this sitting here in Q dead house.
When, at o'clock, she heard Ishmael
putting the chain on the front door,
she felt that she was locked in for life;
that she wanted to scream, to rush out
and beat on the door with her hands.
True, it had often been quiet at home.
She still thought Of the little house as
home. But that had been only through
the day. At nightfall it had wakened to
noisy life. First there had been her
father to come home. and later on Ellen
and her mother; then the gas had
hared. the mica windows in the stove
had sent out q red glow. voices had
lifted, Missile shrilly calling from the
foot Of the stairs:

There was silence. Mrs. Colfax
drew q long breath. A maid came In.
Katie tell Norah to draw q bath
for Miss Marcella."
Then abruptly, with unexpected vigor,
Mrs. Colfax left the room. Missile, being
led upstairs by Adelaide, saw her at
the washstand under the stairs, washing
her hands.
She was frightened and dispirited.
The two women, one old. one elderly,
the sepulchral lights, the silence, the
smell of old dust from heavy carpets

Adelaide's dress, as though 1t had been
worn too long: the frightful overwhelm-
ing atmosphere of gentility were almost
too much for her. And, when she was
alone in her htgh-ceilinged room, with
its vast bed and its hideouS walnut
wardrobe, she could hear the bath water
running; and suspected that Adelaide
was lurking outside, to be sure that
none of the dust from Stella's house be
allowed to linger in this sacrosanct
stronghold Of Colfax pride.
She took her bath and relaxed some

There was q coal FIRE going, and a scut-

Stella had killed herself because Of the
trouble at the store. Only she, Missile,
knew the truth.
But one result there was Of that visit
Of Adelaide'S. She knew now why she
was there. Even there her ability 10 see

blending and balancing helps produce
its distinction. Hourly check-ups prevent
variation from carefully determined
standards. Daily tests under laboratory
methods assure purity. Its delightful
and delicate sparkle is achieved by a
secret process and enables it to keep its
sparkle long after the bottle is opened.
So pure is it that leading hospitals serve
it and leading physicians prescribe it.
This is "Canada Dry" better, purer.
