NNA KEELER was roaming about Kelley’s store looking for something that would serve as a suitable first prize for the progressive pinochle party she was giving that evening. She had half decided to take a pow- der jar in the new Italian pottery, although she said to herself that not one woman in ten would appreciate it, when she saw a plate that instantly enchanted her. A plate that could be 23 |usea tor anything must certainly please; every woman loved fine china. Ann pounced upon the dainty disk with its decoration of gladioli, so ex- quisitely touched up that no one would dream of such a thing as a transfer pattern. “This is just what I want,” she said to Mr. Everson, the obliging gray-halred salesman. “Six dollars for the set—yes'm.” saild Mr. Everson. “Very flne ware. You make no mistake in buying those, Mrs. Keeler.” “But I only want one!” exclaimed Mrs. Keeler. “I am very sorry. break the set. “Oh, dear!” Mrs. Keeler's plump, pink face darkened with disappoint- ment. That's a shame. The only thing I've found I want. I must have that plate, Joe Everson.” . Mr. Everson wiggled uncomfortably, but continued firm. “I'm very sorry,” he said. “If you'd like the set I—I will make a reduc- tion. You may have them for $5.75. I'm sure you could find use for a few extra plates.” Mrs. Keeler tapped her toe. Yes, she could make use of them; she had wanted some fine china for a good while. And this was exquisite, and cheap, too, when one considered the beauty. Mrs. Keeler sighed and opened her purse. At home she placed the plates be- fore her and studied each one sepa- rately. If one showed a flaw she would give that one away. But they were perfect. It scemed a shame to separate them. Still, when one gives a pinochle party to one’s friends that But we can’t is a payback for countless similar entertainments one mustn’t be too stingy. The plate was a little gem and would make up for the simplic- ity of the second prize—a calendar containing 365 salad recepes—which had been among her Christmas gifts and which she had no use for. But oh, how she hated to give it away! Suppose the horrid Mrs. Bates should get it! The more Anna Keeler looked at it the more she wanted it. It was while she labored in these throes of temptation and covetousness that an inspiring thought brought joy. She ran to the telephone and called a famillar wire. A response came immediately. 3 “Myrtle! I'm going to say some- thing private to you—No fear; that old Mrs. Bixby that I'm on the wire with is gone this afternoon—I saw her sail forth in all her elegance soon after lunch. And it's Maud Brook's trick at central, anyway, and if she listens in on you she won’t tattle. Myrtle, dear! I ran across a set of plates at Kelley’s this afternoon; I wanted one for my first prize tonight, but that old goat of an Everson made me take the entire six. Six dollars, too! Well. there isn’t another thing I could find that would do for a first prize, so I've got to put up the plate of course. But. Myrt, here is where you come in. You're a crackerjack at pinochle. I don’'t know another as good. You fight for the biggest score and get the plate. And then hand it over to me on the quiet, see? I'll make it all right with you. I simply can't have that set broken. Will you, Myrtle? Oh, you angel!” Mrs. Keeler blew a kiss into the telephone. How simple it was after all! Myrtle Jackson would win the plate, she could do it easily, and the beautiful set would remain unim- paired. “T'll glve Myrt that little faience vase,” she said. “That will repay her nicely. I've got too many vases, anyway.” Mrs. Keeler was very happy over the remainder of her preparations, even to wrapping up the lovely plate, and was so vivacious at dinner that her husband complimented her. When she had put on her new azure crepe and powdered her nose and squirted a bit of perfume on her carefully hot-pressed waves of auburn hair she felt as fit as ¢he conqueror who has nothing left to do but count his spoils. At 8 o'clock her guests were gath- ering with rustles and gales of light talk and laughter. There was a mo- ment's delay occasioned by the tardi- ness of Eunice Crossley, who was always late everywhere because she had some one of her half dozen chil- dren to sew up or spank or put to . The only reason why Mrs. Keeler had invited Eunice was be- cause the little woman was her next- door neighbor and she couldn’t help it. The instant Eunice entered, breathless and apologetic, the 16 women sat down at the card tables and the game began. From the start the party was a peppy one. Mrs. Keeler did not play, she circulated from table to table, and occasionally she snapped an eye at her faithful friend, the florid and overwhelming Mrs. Jackson. There was joy in her heart when Myrtle moved up, and she took pains to be nice even to little Eunice, who was playing casually with constant ex- cuses—“I'm dreadfully stupid, Iought to play more, but with six babies— and all my own work and—"" Myrtle kept progressing regularly. The dear old sport! Mrs. Keeler loved her more than ever. But also, that absurd little Eunice Crossly - kept progressing! Unac- countably she was winning, game after game. Her own surprise was actual—“Must be my partners. It surely can’t be I,” she murmured over and over. Then came the last game and the last table and there sat Eunice Crossly and Myrtle Jackson op- posed! Myrtle was flanked by Evvy Winthrop, a good steady player, while Eunice had Laura Peak. Oh, well! Mrs. Keeler smiled at her co- conspirator and Myrtle winked back as much as to say: “It is all over but the shouting!” But was {t? Mrs. Keeler was re- called from the kitchen whither she hda gone to see if Abby Lennox, the faithful cateress, had the parfait ready to serv y_the sound of somu ATWATER KENT Radio Sets Plus “Grove” Service Guarantee Satisfaction Harry C.

Even Evvy had gone back on Myrtle. It was all over in a minute and Mrs. Keeler, pad and pencil in hand, was inquiring the score. Even one failure wasn't going to send Myrtle way back. “What's yours, Mrs. Crossley?” Eunice with tremblig hand, held out her score card. ~Mrs. Keeler scribbled. “And you, Myrtle, dear?” “Five thousand eight hundred sev- enty,” growled Myrtle. hat?” exclaimed Mrs. Keeler and she paled. Laura Peak was patting Eunice’s shoulder. “Good for you, You've won first prize. playing—" Eunice grew sunny as she opened the package and saw the beautiful plate. “Oh, Mrs. Keeler! How lovely! Oh, you dear!” she breathed. Mrs. Keeler was glaring at Mrs. Jackson. “Did you do it on purpose?” she whispered. “On purpose! You take that back, Anna Keeler!” retorted Myrtle, with a deadly eye. " But to this day Anna Keeler still believes that Myrtle Jackson tricked her. (The end.) (Copyright. 1026, Radio Repairs Any make or set repaired or adjusted at reasonable cost. Open Evenings E.J.
