Miss Brown took a box of fudge away from her because Jo simply put it out on top of her desk while she was ar- ranging her books. She dldn’t open the | box, mor try to attract the other girls’ atténtion. And at recess time Miss Brown refused to give it back to her. That made Jo-Jo furious. She called Miss Brown all the names she could think of and began to invent new ones. Mother came in while she was scolding. “Miss Brown is to leave at the end of the term,” said moth s “Glory!” cried Jo fervently. “She'd better leave.” “The’ doctor says she is on the verge of a nervous collapse,” mother contin- ued. “She must glve up teaching at once, and she's sbout distracted, fof she doesn’t know what will hecome of her mother and sisters. She has been keeping the family together, but it's quite evident that for a long time she hasn't been fit to teach. I'm surprised that they let her stay. she didn’t break down defor “What will she do?’ I asked. “Mrs. Jamison thinks she can got her a chance to go abroad with somc friends of theirs who sail for Italy in| January. They want a companion who | can tutor their son, and the doctor says by that time she will be able to go, and the change will be just the| thing. She feels dreadfully "because she can't give her sisters the Christ- mas treat she had been planning. Jo didn't say much except, “M-m-m, I should think she’'d better take a rest.” She id that very fervently. I was still in bed on Christmas day. Jo-Jo came over first_thing m_the morning to see me. She had Miss Foster’s present, a little framed Ma~ donna with a beautiful halo. “I should think she’s know I've given up wearing mine,” Jo remarked. “May- be_this s a hint.” She told me about her other pres- ents. “Didn't you get your skates with our Christmas money?’ I asked, Every year Jo's uncle in New York sends the girls five dollars apiece.

To my surprise, she blushed and looked uncomfort- ble. “No-0-0, T don't believe I'll get my ! skates. I've spent the money for something else.” “Oh,” I said. “For yourself, of course.” I had an idea Isabel had wheedied it away for something, and her mother had upheld her in it. It's just the she does. 1 didn't,” repiied Jo, shortly. Jo-Jo,”. 1 said, “and it's Fnone of my business, but I wondered if you did, buy something for your- self. It's just like you to spend every cent of it for someone else.” “Well, I wanted to help sive them something. You see, Bab, it’s this way. I don’t mind your knowing, if you won't tell. I was sorry I was so mean and hateful when Miss Brown was sick and worried half to death. I wanted her sisters to have some fun Christmas. I wish I'could have done more.” “Does she know you sent {t?” She knows my writing. I got a bank draft on purpose, but I forgot about the address.

Every person® who travels, realizes the desirability of having a case of some sort in which can be kept let- ters, writing paper and post cards o thaf these may not clutter the interior of the suit case or handbag. Such a case can be made in a half hour by any needlewoman, using silk, linen or any fabric having some “body” to it. Leath- er also is excellent. The one illustrated was made of a plece of gray, soft leather. 28 inches long by 9 inchies wide. This was lined with Dresden silk which was cut & hglf inch wider on every edge that the edges might be turned under. Two pockets were turned as shown i the diagram, and the edges finished by stitching. The initials of the owner were burnt on one of the pockets. To make a case of this sort quite “up-to-date’ one could use one of the new Cubist silk designs for the out- side and a plain silk or satin for the lining. Safety Pin Holder For Baby’s Basket.
