The door to which Mamie and the flash-1ight the officer had lent her had brought me was that of the kitchen she patently did not copsider any other point of egress or ingress—and when 1 had opened it I found myself in the midst of cheery bustle. Jim was placing dishes upon the small table where Katie and he take their meals, and Katie was busy dish- ing up tke remaining contents of the cooking utensils. That.the two were about to have their belated dinner was apparent, and 1 waited only for a single question. “Did the officer bother much questioning, Jim?" “No, Ma'am.” Jim's face shone with the consciousness of a dreaded ordeal successfully passed. "I told him about tackling the man, and how I couldn't hold him and he said he wasn't surprised—that he was a big brute it would take two men to hold, I showed him the direction the fellow went—off that way.” He pointed in a direction directly south of the old wood road, with its entrance so long masked by under- Browth sthat it had been practicaly forgotten by the neighborhood, and | I realized that stolid Jim from some- where had found enough you with to keep the officer from discovering | the tracks of the car which Harry Underwood had brought through the | old wood road and in.which he had | taken away the escaped bootlegger— for what purpose no one could guess—I least of all. “Let Him Sleep,” “I'm glad you got Jim,” 1 nn‘;. ignoring Katie's nificant sn! “Now hurry and your dinner.

Under the circumstances, 1 was just as glad that my mother-in- law did not intend to open her win- dow, even though I am what Dicky dubs the "fiendiest of all fresh air fiends,” Besides, I knew it was use- less to protest. Madge Tells Her Story Mother Graham had been burdened with the care of the child ever since I had gone to the apartment in the city on account of Dicky. 1 could not digspute her dictum concerning him, espepially as 1 was to go back to the city so soon. But my heart felt the eternal struggle between the welfare of my husband and that of my child, which is the lot of 0 many women, | “I am not responsible for my hus- | band's being in the world.” 1 said rebelliously to myself, as I entered my room and switched on the light, “but 1 am for my baby, and I ought to be here with him.” But I let no trace of my feelings appear upon my face as I drew ’(hulr:, forward for my mother-in-law and Katherine. If 1 could not take my baby from the grandmotherly | care which I felt to be mistaken, there was no shadow of use in be- |ing anything but acquiescently cheer- | ‘ml over the arrangement.
