Presently, as if waking from a hide- @us dream, Mrs. Alnsley looked about her. All was as usual—only Fred wasn't there! A roll of bills on the table beside Her plate! Then it wasn't a dream, those sharp, angry words, hers no less than his. A little later the maid came to an- mounce a morning caller. Like an old woman Mrs. Ainsley arose. She stum- bled as the toe of her slipper caught in a rip in the rug. Somchew the stumbling let her see herself as through Fred's eyes. She looked down at her soiled gown, thep about the room. A wolume ‘of Browning lay open upon the littered window seat; one of Emerson had tumbled to the floor. Now, Mrs. Ainsley’s shibboleth was culture, whereof, to her, books were the high sign. Their promiscuous distrubution was an evidence of their constant use. If one’s means did not permit one to have both servants and books, it surely were better to forego the former for the sake of possessing the latter, and, having the books, how could one chain one's spirits to the trivalities of house- work? But now as she approached the living room the®dust, the furniture out of place, even the scattered books Seemed to proclaim more of disorder | and discomfort than they did of the refinements of a tured home. “Mary Grahai wvisitor arose. “Alice, I hope you'll pardon my com- ing a week earlier than you expected. As Brother John's obliged to be away | from home I decided to come here h, I'm so glad vou came! Fred's away, and I wan—I want—" Her com- posure gave way and she was clasped sobbing in her friend's arms. A little later the whole miserable story came out: “Fred had changed s0!” his wife sobbed, while the friend moted with kindly eyes the disorderly Toom, the sofled and torn silk of the mistress, and in her own mind came to some sage conclusions. no sympathy for me. He " she cried as her | after that—" | “A separation, Alice! Nonsense. Things | | as that. Will you let me help you?” | “Yes, if you think——" Sobs finished | the sentence. “Well, then, you must let me take complete charge. First, I'd suggest that you follow Fred's advice and give your | maid a vacation. We'll do the work and | be all the better for it.” | “Alice, 1 see how it is.” sald Mary | | a little later; “your training as a rich | | man's daughter didn’t fit you for the | | position of poor man's wife. Fred, you | say, will be home in a month. Much | | may be done in that time.” | "Mrs. Ainsley was surprised and | ashamed to see how happlly the chil- | dren, who had never been required so | | much as to pick up a garment for | | themselves, responded to Mary's sug- gestions and did all kinds of work | What was more, they kept at it day | after day. The boys removed the rickely | fence from the front and side vards | They mended the alley fence and planted flowers and vines where they | would do the most good. This didn’t | cost much. Within the house was an- | other matter. But three or four men transformed the place in a week. At the end of two weeks all that Mary | had planned and more was accom- | plished. What had once been a dreary | house became a home in appearance, | lacking only Fred's presence to become | one in reality. “We're impressionists—and_futurists; we've produced a homelike effect. You | ean do the nice little details later,” said | Mary with a laugh. “Now for your | yardrobe.” With generous enthusiasm Mary car- | ried a great load of garments—the ac- cumulation of years of careless living— [ to the sewing-room. The two friends worked together for two weeks—Alice learning a never-to-be-forgotten lesson. As the work progressed Alice became nervously anxious. She had not heard ! from her husband, except to recelve his address. This she did not use, feel- ing at first that overtures, if there were any, sheuld come from him. Now, | as her once dreary home took on an air of beauty and comfort, a great self- reproach sprang up within her. An | she turned away in tears. One day, looking up from her mail, “John's letters begin to d impatient. I must go." But, Mary, Fred may co) 501 da Prominent Woman Never in her girlhood days had the sound brought a prettier color to her cheeks.

When the children, impatient at the long delay, opened the door with a bang | they saw a sight which soon ceased to | { be movel in that reunited family. THE END.
