That night Judy spoke of it to Stan.
1t was the time which Judy had come
TO call the quiet hour" In the large
square bed room upstairs, she and Stan
were preparing for bed. Judy sat on a
Slipper-chair, book in her lap. She
wore quilted satin robe of old blue,
and her bare feet were thrust into heel
less blue satin sandals. A fire had been
burning all evening in the CRATE, and
the warmth fell gratefully on her
ankles. The pleasant, spacious sur
roundings, the genial warmth in here
and the cold night pressing against the

more occupied with these than with the
book she held.
The pleasant smell of bath salts still
clung to her from her bath. She was
luxuriantly aware of the feel of silk
