They did thelr utmost to teach Marion econ- omy, and Marion tried to get along with them, but sometimes she didn't| get up at half-past six in the morn- ing, so,,0f course, things didn't go very well. Then just as was all Gresred for the wedding Willie simply wonldn't take his uncle's half-million, and Marion got so out of sorts with him that she started right off for France with her former suitor. But she was back again in a year wearing Wtth Avenue overalls and chopping wood in a way that made Willie's aunts love. her dearly. She, like Willie, had learned to be a “worker.” All this time, Wille, too, had been missing, but when Marton confessed to the fat uncle that she was pining for him, back he came, disguised as an Anglomaniac, with the best of clothes, a monocle, a drawl, a valet and no end of trunks, You-see, his uncle had put him tn training for @ year.
