Love’s Awakening The Helrt Story bmdt‘lst Wolun By Adele Garrison A Little Thing Like a Gift Car Does Really Soften Asperities, What? Marion Morton is like her mother. Bhe never does anything by halves. | There was genuine enthustasm for the new motor car and sincere ap- preciation of her stepfather's thought of her in both her voice and eyes as she told him she would love to travel down to her school in the new car. The look in Harry Underwood’s eyes as she finished her little speech was ludicrously like that seen in those of a collie that expects a scolding and receives friendly praise instead. But it was the ex- pression in Lillian’s face which sud- denly constricted my throat muscles, for there was in it so much of adoraticn for her only child and passionate gratitude for the girl's sydden graciousness. It was Dicky who broke the emo- tional tension of the moment—de- liberately 1 was sure, but with an air of irresponsible levity which was artistically convincin “May I remind this—gung—" he id, “that our handmaiden, Katie, will be waiting dinner for us at eight o'clock, and that her temper as well as the dinner will he apt to spoil If we are not on time. So suppose we park the bouquets and start the car. Mary and Marion, you're the thinnest of the hunch, so you'd better pile in the front seat with old Harry, leaving the back space clear for the wider oh, comparatively only,” eoff with a mocking bow and me. For a second I wondered at the arrangement he had planned, for he also knows Marion's . aversion to her stepfather. Then he gave secret little signal of our own, and I knew that he wished to s something to me which should unheard by the two younger mem- bers of our party. Lillian promptly caught the cue “Chirp for yourself, Dicky-bird she #aid with her min-like grin. “You're the roundest robin there i in this party.” he broke to Lillian people— | me a | ‘And this to muh!” Dicky groan- od opening the rear door and help- ing her into the car. “Just for that {you can sit over in the corner by vourself.

You can improve the time sharpening your claws, al- though Allah knows they don't need it.” He helped me in and took the seat next to me, while Mary and Marion were bestrowing themselves in the front seat. I blessed Mary for her tact when she turned Harry Underwood with a pleading little smile. “Mayn't I sit nest to you?” “Marion will down to school she | aske drive have ¢ drive it, tor I shall be 50 busy.” 1 saw a look of relief flash into Marion's eyes, and 6aw that though she had been prepared to sit next her steptather, and act a friendly role. she was glad to he separated from him even so slightly. “Of course you may sit next me," | Mr. Underwood laughed. “I'm 8o flattered my ears are twitching.

Mary exclaimed ec- statically, and Marion dutifully chimed in with an apparently fer- vent: “That will be wonderful!” Tt was not until we were on the bridge with its attendant pande- monium that Dicky, under the pre- tense of showing me one of his fl- ations in a magazine, leaned close to me and spoke in a tone in- audible to anyone but me, “I've examined those books and vou'd better prepare to be jolted.

Velvets, Of Proven Populanty, Are pattern, (By Henr{ Bendel) New York, Aug. 20.—The new vel- Ivets are sumptuous—extraordinary in texture and in fineness, and truly satisfying in design and coloring. They are the featured fabric for fall and it is expected their vogue will increase with the lowering of the temperature. To be sure, these were introduced last zeason, but like the talking movies, no one knew just how they would take and if they would be worth extensive development. ‘They were a relief from the flood |of printed crepes and silks, but their varjety was unlimited.
