tidy and unassuming. 1t bore the
legend Mountain Creek"
Lydia carefully slit the commune
cation from Monte Caro-, read 1t
through with amusement. Nikki was
a dear. He had the unusual gift OF
transporting his vivid personality
to paper. He was, she noted, still
regrettably lacking in funds, but
still devoted and serious in his mat
rimonial intentions. Lydia would
answer the letter later, with poise
and charm and gayety-and firm-
ness.
Lydia Is Upset.
The second letter was short and
blunt. Yes, Robert wanted money.
With characteristic lack of f1nesse
he stated his problem starkly in the
first crowded paragraph. I'm in
vited to the Christmas banquet Of
the Writers Club. I can't afford
not to go. Perry Boyle will be there.
He's the publisher, you know. It's
formal and I've got to get a dinner
jacket. If Boyle notices me my
novel has chance"
Lydia tossed the letter aside.
Roberts petulant problems always
upset her. She was weary of con-
tinually sending him money for
which he was rarely grateful and
which he never attempted to repay.
This time she would tell him firmly
and brutally that she was through
playing banker to worthless
brother. If he needed money let
him go out and earn it like 1 did,
she thought resentfully. Or let him
borrow it elsewhere.
She opened her mothers letter
and was suddenly touched. Home
for Christmas! For a moment Lydia
was struck with a sharp loneliness
for all the old familiar faces and
places of her childhood. After all,
she could fly West. She had a few
days freedom coming to her. She
could get Mona Allen to care for
the invalid in her absence. Mona
was thick, dumpy and satisfactorily
unattractive. 1t would be good to
see mother again.
And the other children. 1t had

and a tree. Well have q gay Christ
mas in this place-for a change"
Shall i" Lydia's voice was
oddly timed. "Shall I answer Mrs.
Haines' letter this morning?'
His eyes evaded hers. mo, I'll
scratch her of an answer myself"
And with this disturbing sentence,
Lydias plans for a Mountain Greek
Christmas fell into small, frighten.
ing slivers. How could she go of and
leave Carter to Margot's charm and
allure, this Christmas of all Christ
masses? Christmastime left a man
so vulnerable.
When Carter had departed for the
Office, breezily pleased with him
self, when the doctor had come and
gone and the fretting invalid had
been lulled into short and restless
nap, Lydia wrote to her mother. 1t
was a businesslike letter, efficiently
tapped off on her typewriter.
Dear Mother-You1l have to
count me out this year. Mr.. VAIN
wright has invited a houseful of
guests for the holidays and some
body will have to take care of things
for him. I'm sorry, because I'd
rather looked forward to a visit
home this year. But since the other
children will be with you, it won't be
as If you were alone. Maybe next
Christmas things will be different.
I'm rather busy now. Will write
more fully later. Love.
LYDIA.
Maybe next Christmas things will
be different" she thought as she
sealed the envelope Maybe I'll be
able to go home as Mrs. Wainwright
next Christmas"

been q long while since she was
home. Longer than she had real
ized. And besides, it might be
pleasure to return to Mountain
Creek, sophisticated and handsome
and sleek with her years Of New
York and foreign living.
Lydia turned vague plans in her
mind. She would call the airlines

people Just after breakfast. She
would buy that absurdly expensive
and delightfully."- stylish coat she had
been idly admiring at Putnams.
Thank heavens her luggage was ex-
quisitely smart and just properly
mile-worn.
Mother must be how old now
Lydia made rapid calculations.

4 MEAN ACTING LIVER
CAN MAKE YOU coNs1IpA1ED!

You may have wondered why some
laxatives fail to give real relief
from temporary constipation. Often
this is because the flow Of liver bile
is insufficient to prevent decay of
intestinal wastes. Try Beechams
Pills, the purely vegetable COM

effective laxative, they encourage
this flow of liver bile which is so
necessary to o'help digest what you
eat, help prevent decay of intes-
