Love’s Embers ‘Young Som. an odd, regularly recur- ot thumps as I neared of Junior's room. He had there by Katherine with ‘injunction to “think things over” Bbe waited for me to decide v punishment be was to receive ihg'away. 1 knew that she followed my rule of permitting him ‘neither books nor toys whils he was thus “on punishment,” and my curi- ‘csity waa strong as I pushed open ‘the door. ‘* He was turning somersaults, com- ing down with a thump at each revolution. At my entrance he brought himself suddenly to an up- right position. “Y was just doing my exercises” e explained glibly, but I looked at him steadily with the quizsical little smile which I reserve for his occa- sional equivocation. “Supposa you think that over a minute,” I told him. “Are you sure weu were turning eomersaults for exercise?” His face reddened and he shuffled tneasily, but he did not drop his evea, ¥ have always thanked my partieular little joss for the frank stesdy gase with which Junior meets repreof or comment which embar- raspes him. *“Naw, 1 was doing ‘em for fun,” he sald explosively. ‘What Dicky terms “the school- ma'am {tch” stirred within me at his dietion and inflections, but Y sternly curbed the impulse for cor- rection and took up the mere impor- tant probléem. 1 was hampered. how. ever, as | always am in my dealings with my small son, by an jrresistible desire for laughter. ““That's much better,” I eatd. “But. den’t yeu think: you've been rather Mpobedient to Aunt Katherine? | What did she tell you when she sent you in here?” *Net to touch my toys or books,” he returned promptly, “and T didn’t —~eept—1 #'pose my hands and my gt Lo i i i & New Seri ber that the mext time you're on punishment, we won't gay anything more about it now.” “Gee! You oet your boots—Sure"” in his relief he tried all his censor- {able phrases, finaiiy contenting him- self with an innocuous “Of course. T'll remember.” | “Very well, that's settled,” I said; {my risibles interfering material | with my desiro for effective disci- " pline. “Now before I tell you what | vour punishment is to be, I want you to know the reason for it." Into Junior's eyes came the look which every mother knows, an un- conscious registering of a dislike :lor reasons. “Go ahead, get it over with,” the look challenged me, but rightly or wrongly, I cling to the theory that as soon as they are oli enough children shou'd be given reasons for their punishments andg their rewards. “When you were a baby,” I began, “vonu had to stay in your crib. Then each vear, as you grew older, you were given more room, until 1ow you have almost this whole farm for your play. This Summer when some- one was watching, you have heen permitted to go as far as Mrs. Tic- {er's. But now that I find you cannot | be trusted to remember your bounds, I'm going to forbid you going any farther than our barn without some- one with you. If you obey that rule cheerfully for a week, perhaps T'Il give you vour privileges back again.” My son winked his eyes doggedly to keep back the tears “I'd rather have a lickin"" said “I know. but vou'd forget more quickly,” I returned. “Yi off punishment.

His nose told him that Jumper had kept straight on. He came to where the path forked. Once more that trusty little nose of his guided him aright. And then, quite abruptly, he lost all scent of Jumper the Hare. Billy Mink sat up and glared this way and that. His nose was filled with the scent of deer and deer scent was g0 strong that Billy could find no trace of Jumper the Hare. It was plain that Lightfoot the Deer and his family had come along after Jumper the Hare had been there. Billy had been taking it very easy until now. He hadn't hurried But now he hurried. There were several little paths going in several direc- tione, Billy ran a little way down each in turn. Nowhere could he find the scent of Jumper the Hare. But in two or three of the paths the deer deep in the snow. He paused on the | edge ‘of 1t and looked down. He| knew whose path that was.

Billy returned to the place where he has lost the scent of Jumper. | There he sat up a moment and snarled. Then he ran back along the path down which he had come, leaped out of it and disappeared in the Green Forest. “I know when to quit,” mutter- ed Billy. “I guezs T don’t want any hare anyway. I'll go hunt for some- thing easier to get. T don't sec why those deer had to come along just | when they did. Juraper is lucky, that is all T can say for him.

But you're pot to tell anyone.” - ¥ She told them what her news was in a vibrating whisper.. “Wé're ge- ing to be married tomorrow nfter- noon, and we want you.to be with us. No one elss—just the four ef us. Wae aren't telling anyone elpe.” She was radiant and . sparkling HEAD THIS FIRST: Lily Lexington, spolled only daughter of the'Cyrus Lexingtons, jiits Staley Drummond, a rich bach- elor older than herself, to marry her mothess chauffeur, Pat France. Her family and friends drop heér in- stantly and she goea to live with Pat in a little flat near his parents’ home. - Pat has invented a new kind of piston ring and he and is friend, Koy Jetterson, 1ent a tiny shop where they manufacture the new ring. Pat works three or four nights a. week, not only in the shop but helping Roy Jetterson in his garage: and Lily finds life very dull. How. ever, she still is in love with I'at and is very jealous of his former sweetheart, Elizabeth Ertz. One day Lily meets her "friend, | Sue Cain, downtown and Sue asks | her to a party. She needs some new clothes for it, appeals to Staley, and pays for them with his check. Florence Frauce, Pat's sister, sees the check; and when he and Lily separate later on because of & | gift of jewelry that Staley has sent her, Florence tells Pat about the check. Lily goes home to her father's house to find that he has had a nervous collapse dne to some busi- ness losses, and her mother has no servant. Between them she and Lily do the housework, and Lily finds life there none too pleasant. Staley is attentive, but as time goes on she begins to long for Pat. But when she visits his flat he not only tells her that reconciliation is out of the question. but does not try to conceal the presence thegs of Elizabeth Ertz who seems to be giv- ing him a helping hand with his housework. Moreover, he tells her flatly that she has retufned to him because there nas been a piece in the newspaper telling about his suc- cessful piston ring, She denles this, | but goes home and tries to content | herself with Staley Drummond. On a Febrnary night they start out for an evening together, and Lily, whe dixlikes to be alone with him, sug- gests that they go some place “gay and wild.” NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER LII The “some place ga that Staley picked out rant called the Club C'asanova. It, really was not-® clyb, except in the senee that it waa a mnight club and that a membership thers could be bought for a. hundred. dollars. Moreover. practically anybedy who had'a hundred dollars fo throw away could belong to the Ciub sanova. “It's out in the country about 30 miles.” Staley said that St. Valen- tine's eve, as he rted his smooth- going, soft-purring car, and it &werved out of the driveway with the low hum of its motor as quiet and steady as the hum of bees over a field of sun-soaked clover. The nizht was cold, and all around Lily were the crewm-eolored panther ‘skin robes that he had tucked around her. In the little cut- £lass vase fastened against the win- dow frame were fresh white gar- dentas, itke the ones that he had brought her to wear that night. Their fragrance filled the inside of the car. . Lily gave a sigh as she leaned back and touched her cigaret with the silver cigaret lighter that was attached to the dash. All these lux- urious things were pleasant—thers was no getting away from it It-was pleasant to get into a car that was like the coziest, most lux- urfous little room that ever was. Pleasant to lean back against the soft cushions—aand to be on her way /1o a delicious dinner that she had not had to get herself. She sighed again. “Oh, Staley, T've | worked so hard all da; she sald. “It’s auch a job for me and mother to keep that big house in any kind of order. It seems to me I've been dusting and sweeping and tearing | around all day. And yet we didn't| { get the silver polished or the kitch- en floor scrubbed—and I'm o tired.” She saw Etaley smile to himself in the half-darkness, as he put eut his lett arm and laid 1t around her shoulders. “Well,” he said, humorously, “I know I'm not much of a fellow, but my wife will have a pretty good time just the same. 8he won't have to work her lovely fingers to the tone, anyway—" And he bunched Lily's fingers together and kissed all of them.

She did not feel half =0 bright and cheerful as the lovely | rippling tones of her voice sounded.
