thing"
Miss Byerly was their Sunday
school teacher.
A mn hung UP the dishpan, and
IA turned on the faucet above the
sink, and swished the water about
with brush, and decided to let
that do for this evening.
Phil, surely, would be here now
before long. Phil was late again.
She did not mind, because she had
heard or read that the secret Of sue
cessful love lay not in ignoring
faults, but in recognizing them and
not minding them.
Years ago, when Phil always had
been early, she had not minded
that, and so, sensibly, there was
no reason for minding now because
he was always late.
Probably it was merely a habit
and not fault at all; or were hab-
its and faults the same?
She took two damp tea towels
from the seat of a chair and went
to hang them on the rack above the
stove. 1t was mean of Mary Fran
ceS to skip Off, as she had, before
the tinware was washed.
1t had been sweet of Cecily to
offer to help, though she should have
known Ann would not allow it when
she had company.
Cecily was in love. For nearly
ten minutes Ann had forgotten it..
Poor Cissy-Ann caught it back and
tried to correct it. She liked it, of
course. I am in love and like it..
OF course I like it. I must like be-
ing in love with Phil-who is al
ways late.
She turned out the kitchen light
and went through the big dining
room into the front hall.
Mary Frances was coming quietly
down the stairs, and she tipped her
chin to saucinesS as she answered
AIMS question.

CHAPTER FIVE

CHAPTER FIVE
MARY FRANCES" Ermintrude
1Vl said breathlessly over the
telephone. I've made the most
marvellous, thrilling discovery that
you ever possibly could imagined!
Mother and Daddy have gone for
ride, but I said I had to study
and rushed right in to phone to
you. I'm so excited I can hardly
talk.
I'm just absolutely shaking all
over. I'm kind of pale and trem-
bling. Listen. I've found out who
a Certain Somebody is. Yes, hon
estly. Everything about him. And
it is just too perfectly, maryelously
wonderful. 1t is, really.
Mothers cleaning woman didn't
come today Sc mother went ahead
and aired the mattresses and did
every silly thing like that and it
pretty near brought on a nervous
headache.
SO when daddy came home and
she was pounding the steak he said,
NO more Of this. Well jump in
the car and go over to town for din
ner' And he took the plate right
away from her, he said the steak
would keep and-I am hurrying, but
you know how l am.
Il have to tell things in my own
way-and mother said she wouldn't
dress and put on a corset for any
dinner on earth, and daddy said,
Just put on your coat over your
house dress, you're as sweet as a
daisy and neat as a pin, and We'll
go right up here to this neighbor-
hood place, we can get something
so we did. And we hadn't much
more than taken our seats at the
table in there than who should
come walking in but Him!
Il thought I'd die! Honest, dar-
ling, I thought I'd just pass out.
He had his hat a little one-sided,
and he had his cane and every
thing and I never saw him look
more handsome.
''He gave me one of those cool,
penetrating glances Of his, and I
could see he recognized me right
off-but, of course, he didn't let on
or anything. He just pulled out
his chair and sat down facing me.
Facing me! Feature that, Mary
Frances-facing me.
HE looks even more handsome
sitting than he does standing. There
seemed to be worlds of unSpOken
questions in his eyes, too. I'll bet
a thousand dollars that he thought,
seeing us together every afternoon,
that we we're sisters, and he was
wondering and kind of mutely ask
ing me where you we're.
HE loves you, Mary Frances. The
more I looked at him the more I
was certain of his unSpoken love
for you. One of my strong psychic
lunches came to me. You know
how | get them-I am hurrying.
A ND then when was just posi-
IA lively dying anyway with eX-
element and everything. you know,
Daddy looked up and saw him, and
he said to mother: "Trudie, there's
that young fellow who took the
part of the brother in the show last
night"
L thought I'd die I just about
passed out. 1t was too perfectly
thrilling. 'Nactor and everything.
But 1 never let on.
L just opened my eyes in what
you call my big-eyed, innocent way,
you know, and said, DO you know
him, Daddy?'
well, of course, Daddy didn't
know him, but I kept on looking in
nocent, and 1 began to pump, and
pumped and pumped, and I found
out everything, and Daddy and
Mother never dreamed that was
interested or anything am hurry

They sat silently upon their mounts with
their toes locked behind the elbows of the
CORRIDORS, some of which measured ten feet
long, inspecting Jana and himself with their
beady lidless eyes, He was astounded by their
uncooth appearance, but that emotion was as
nothing to the shock he was about to receive.

Meanwhile, Jason Gridley and the man from
