It lacked but a few minutes of the hour Lillian had named as that of her train's ar- wival. ‘With the knowledge of a neces- #ary task left unperformed, I turned #o my small son, and lifting him to ‘my lap spoke slow impressively: “Junior, Mother has something Wery important to tell you, some- fhing she doesn't want you to do.” His eyes, clear, beautiful, lifted %e mine in the rapt stare which amall children give when they are frying to attend the puzziing de- mands of their elders. #What mustn't I do?” he asked. me or of in- 1 | nim. “yother Will Tell You:” PFirst”” I began, ‘voy mustn’t| r any questions when “Aunt Li n and Marion get off the train. “Are they coming on the train Be demanded excitedly. “Which ain?
