This Is a junior branch of the so- clety as organized in England for the gule sisters and friends of the Girl uts, who are too young to be oli- ble for tha regular organiz: ut would enjoy belonging to a for division. i The name Brownles was designated for thess junio: outs because the Brownie has always proved a popular olf with the small girls, and the mame dts in well \ith the “brown owls,” one of the ranks of adv ment for tho older members of society.

And she had just finished up & rush-day's work and was reveling in a kimono and two magasines, when in comes a caller, primed with ‘“home troublea” that begin and end with the meanness of a Jim husband who, inci- dentally, Is as good as they come—ex- copt that he hasn't much money. ‘The kimono woman rose to the occa- sion with all the sympathy she could command—for you know, your own self, that it {s sometimes & more real charity to listen to a tale of woe than to give bread to a beggar. But there are limita. ‘When the flood was about over she tinkered around with a Buddha pot of tea and atripped the paper from one of those beautiful looking, tastcless wafers that come in a box. And while she was doing it, the weepy one, interested in refreshments, but still harping on her complaints with wearled insistence, went on and on—like this: “You know what a good time I had before I was married, with Pop and Mom giving me everything heart ocould wish for—and now, when I think of me living in a flat, when Jim could just as well afford an apartment—I don't know of anybody that ever had to come down like I have “What about the kalser who owned all of Germany, inside snd out, and has to be cooped up in Doorn? “Oh, but he deserved it.

And when the tea party was over and the caller had gone home in a per- fectly pleasant humor to meet her Jim, the kimono woman said to the terrapin, still sprawled on the shelf that was a paper cutter: “If it be true that he who teaches a good lesson is worthy of endless reward, you may one day go swimming in the 1857 I wouldn't have it “Jim caught one in the woods early | FOREWORD . waters of eternal life.
