And that's tbe way Nurse Sarah Pnlxhed her story, only she shrugged her shoulders again, and looked back, first one way, then another. As for her calling me "chatterbox"—she al­ ways calls me that when she's been doing all the talking. As near as 1 can remember, I bave told Nurse Sarah's story exactly as she told It to me, In her own words. Bat of course I know I didn't get It right all tbe time, and I know I ’ ve left out quite a lot. But, anyway, i f * told a whole lot more than I could have told w hy they got married In the first place, and It brings my story right np to tbe point where I was born; and I ’ ve al­ ready told about naming me, and what a time they bad over that. O f course what's happened since, up to now, I don't know all about, for I waa only a child for the first few years. Now I’ m almost s young lady, "standing with reluctant feet where tbe brook and river meet." ( I rend that last night. I think It’s perfectly beautiful. So kind o f sad.and sweet. It makes me want to cry every time I think o f It.) But even If I don't know all of what's happened since I was born. I know a good deal, for I've seen quite a lot, and I've made Nurse tell me a lot mote. 1 know that ever since I can remem­ ber I've bad to keep as still a t a mouse the minute Father conies Into the bouse; and I know that I never could Imagine the kind of a mother that Nurse tells about. If It wasn't that sometimes when Father has gone off on a trip. Mother and I have romped all over tbe house, and had the most beautiful time. I know that Father says that Mother Is always trying to make me a "M arie," and nothing else; and that Mother rays she knows Father’ll never be happy until he's made me Into a stupid little "Mary.“ with never an atom o f life o f my own. And, do you know? It does seem sometimes, as I f Mary and Marie were fighting Inside o f me, and I wonder which Is going to beat. Funny, Isn't It? Father Is president o f the college now, and 1 don't know how many stars and comets and things he’s discov­ ered since the ntglit tbe atar and I were born together. Bat I know he’s very famous, and that tie’s written up In the papers and magazines, and is In the big fat red “ Who's Who“ In the library, and has lots o f noted men come to see him. Nurse says that Grandma Anderson died very soon after I was bom, but that it didn't make any particular dif­ ference In tbe ousekeeplng; for things went right oi Just as they had done, with tier giving the orders as before; that she'd given them all alone any­ way, mostly, the last year Grandma Anderson lived, and she knew Just how Father Uked things. She said Mother tried once or twice to take tbe reins herself, and once Nurse let her, just to see what would happen. But things gut in an awful muddle right away, so that even Father noticed It and said things. A fter that Mother never tried again, I guess. Anyhow, she’s never tried It since I can remem- her. She's always stayed most of the time up In her rooms lu the east wing, except during meals, or when she weut out with me. or went to the things she and Father had to go to together. For they did go to lota of things. Nurse says. It seetus that for a long time they didn't want folks to know there was going to be a divorce. So before folks they tried to be Just as usual. But Nurse Sarah said she knew there was going to be one long ago. Tbe first I ever heard o f It was Nurse telling Nora, the girl we had In tbe kitchen then; and the minute I got a chance I asked Nurse what It was— a divorce. My, I can remember now how scared she looked, and how site clapped her hand over my mouth. She wouldn't tell me— not a w ont And that's the first time I ever saw her give that quick little look over each shoulder. She's done It lots of times since. As I said, she wouldn't tell me. so I hod to ask some one else. I wasn't going to let it go by and not find out — not when Nurse Sarah looked so scared, and when It was something my father and mother were going to have some day. I didn't like to ask Mother. Some way, l had a feeling, from the wsy Nurse Sarah looked, that It was gome- thing Mother wasn't going to like. And I thought If maybe she didn't know yet she was going to have It, .that certainly 1 didn’t want to Jpe the one to tell her. So I didn't ask Mother what a divorce was.
