Love's Awakening The Heart Story ofa Steadfast Woman By Adele Garrison Madge Is “Raked Over the Carpet” by Mother Graham for Failure 10 Turm Over the House- hold 1 followed my mother-in-law into her room with somewhat the feel- ing of one going to execution. Full well I knew what she wished—I had been dodging the igterview for days—and I knew that I would not emerge unecarred from the conflict. Mother Graham swept across the room, lowered the shade on one window and raised another on a second, then wheeled upon me com- mandingly. “8it down,” she said, indicating the chair nearest me, and I took it, watching her furtively while she ranged the room, adjusting various small articles in an irritating way she has whea she is preparing to “drag somebody over the carpet,” as her son expresses it 1 think she consciously or unconsciously counts upon the advantage it gives her over the harried nerves of her antagonist. Finally she sat down opposite me, folded her hands in her lap and looked at me steadily. “Are you aware, Margaret,” she' began in her best autocratic man- ner, “that you are going away to- meorrow morning, and that you have not yet consulted with me over the management of the house while yon are gone?" T essayed something about having heen so busy, but®she put up a peremptory hand. “You have not been too busy to talk over things with Mrs. Bickett —TI myselt have heard you--and you have been giving that ape of a Katie directions, for when 1 spoke to her a little while ago about chang- ing the linens tomorrow after you all had gone, so that we could get those best things washed and put away she had the audacity to tell me that she knew all about it, that you had told her just what to do, and that she didn't need any more instructions. “Mother!” 1 exclaimed. “Surely she didn't say that last to you.” I regretted the words as soon as they "had been uttered, for my doughty mother-in-law takes any exclamation of doubt as a direct challenge to her veracity. But to my surprise she did not wither me with a contemptuous tirade. Instead ®he flushed with as near embarrass- ment as 1 ever had seen her dis- play. Katie's Impertinence “She might just as well have said it, as look it in that impertinent way of hers.” she retorted, while I breathed freely again. 1 would no. have to reprove Katie for insolence as I momentarily had feared. “But that's neither here nor there,” Dicky's mother went on, her embarrassment gone as sudden- ly as it had come. “What 1 want to know is why you have consulted with everyone else about the house and have disregarded ME entirely " Her emphasis put the ponoun in capitals, and I bit back a smile which would have been fatal. But | §4 indeed, the smile was but a surface | one. I felt anything but mirthful. j § “You misunderstand, Mother.” 1 said meekly. “If I haven't talked things over with you, it was because it was so needless a thing to do. You have every detail of household management at your fingers' cnds. It would be an impertinence for me to do anything save hand the keys of the city to you.” A Little Flattery In spite of herself T dw a gleam of gratified vanity come into her eyes, but her \oice was as caustic as ever. “You needn't try to soft-soap things over that way,” she said. “T wasn't born yesterday. But that re- minds me. Where are the keys of the linen closets and the cedar chests, including that one in which Richard Second's clothes are kept 2" 1 thanked my particular little joss that T had anticipated this demand and taken steps to gratify it. But I braced myself to meet my mother- in-law’s wrath when I answered meekly: “T'll turn over my set to you right away. T shan't need them any longer.” Mother Graham stiffened, and her quick exclamation was like the pounce of a cat upon an unwary mouse. “Your s she sa sets of kevs are the wo.” 1 replied, trying to make my voice as nonchalant as possihle. “Oh! you mean you have an extra set in case of loss. Then bring both sets to me. The other one won't be needed, I promise you. with me in charge. I do not lose keys.” 1 put up a frantic appeal to my little joss even as T said quietly: “But T haven't the other set, Mother. 1 gave keys to all the closets and coests to Katherine some time ago.” (Continued Tomorrow) Copyright, 1929, Ngwspaper Feature Service!

Burgess Kuspicion is a hateful thing And “naught but trouble bring. will it} —Mrs. Robin Welcome Robin tinally left Mrs. Robin at the nest and fl over to the same perch from which he had started his attack on the stranger. His head still ached from the bump he had received when they met. Hardly had he alighted when there was the stranger again. Once more rage filled the heart of Welcom« Robin. But this time he didn't fly #0 headlong. He really took note of things this time. And he discovered that the stranger was over on the window sill of one of the windows of Farmer Brown's house. \Velcom.e flew over there and the Instant he alighted on that window sill he struck and struck hard at the stranger. The stranger was ready and waiting for him and struck hard at the same time. For a second or two Welcome wondered if he hadn’t broken his bill. At the same time his neck felt as if it had been almost snapped. He was al- most dazed. Then he forgot it, for there was the stranger! And again Welcome Robin struck, his wings half spread as he did so. Again he hit something hard. Now he made a discovery—a real discovery. There was something be- tween that strange Robin and him- self. He hadn't hit the stranger and the stranger hadn't hit him. ‘There was glass between them! It was the window pane! But this dis- covery didn't lessen Welcome Rob- in’s jealousy or anger. He pecked and pecked and pecked at the glass. Every time he pecked, the stranger did the same thing. Welcome beat at it with his wings. 80 did the stranger. Welcome actually Yorgot that there was anything between them. They just fought and fought until they were so tired that they couldn't fight any longer. And all the time neither had touched the other. At last Welcome Robin just had to stop. He was tired out. He was exhausted. He sat on the sill with his wings drooping and panted for breath. But when he glanced at the etranger he saw that the latter w quite as badly off as he was. He, too, was sitting with his wings drooping and panting. Somehow, this encouraged Welcome Robin. When he had rested somewhat, he once more resumed the attack. The stranger on the other side of the glass was all ready. He moved the instant that Welcome moved. Then they went at it again until they could keep it up no longer. Welcome was beginning to get discouraged. After he had rested a bit he flew back to the tree where the nest was being built. He looked back at the window. The stranger had left it. “Anyway,” declared Welcome, know where that fellow is. He is in- side Farmer Brown's house.” “Whe is inside Farmer Brown's house?” asked Mrs. Robin, coming up just then. “That stranger.” replied Welcome. ‘;nn stranger that 1I've been tell There was something between that strange Robin and himself ing you about. He's in that house | and he’s afraid to come out. e knows what I would do to him if he i did.” Welcome was hoasting now. Mrs. Robin gave Welcome a queer look. but she said nothing and flew about her business of hunting for | soft grass for that nest. That was the thing that interested her most. She meant o have the best nest she had ever had. If Welcome wanted to be queer, why. he could be queer and that was all there was to it. Welcome decided that he needed something to eat, so he went tol, hunt for worms. But all the time he|” wag hunting for worms he was thinking about that stranger. He || Jjust couldn’t help it.
