(Cowrisht. 1021. by 8Ur Comncnr) ADELAIDE BROWN'S knack at imita . tion stood her in good stead when she -became a member of the Hollings head household. For she had never been in! just such an environment before. At school she had been on pleasant terms with many girls, but intimate with none. Adelaide Brown watched j Miss Holl ingshead carefully during her first week Hit inrcr new employer's home. So quick l or: uerceotion was sfie air-tmits - I tion. that it would "Jiaveltakcte quit M observer to detect that ha haJ, never y oeiore seen sucu utoier Beryiue, iu.i elegance of glass, china and silverware. Buch niceties of detail as she now saw in the rather too elaborately furnished home of. Henry Hollingshead. To the little milliner, the room as signed her. with a bathroom attached. seemed a marvel of luxury. She trod softly on the thick rug as she unpacked fcerj small trunk and hung her few dresses in the big closet. She noted with delight the dainty dressing table with its triDle mirror. There had been a triple mirror at Madam. O'Brien's, but Adelaide bad seldom studied herself in it; She had been afraid .of seeming fool ishly vain if she did so. Now, however, she let down her hair and rearranged it, then put on a fresh collar In place of the one she had worn -there. As she fastened this there was a knock at the door and Patricia entered. She had greeted the new companion upon her arrival and had told her she was glad to see her. - Then eh had bade the maid take Miss Brown to her room and orderea the man to carry up her trunk. . "I will come up for you later," she had said then, "for I must have a talk with you before you see mother." She had evidently come now for the "talk." for she sank' into a chair and motioned Adelaide to sit down. !"I am awfully glad you are here," she said. "But, first, have you everything. yu want? j"Tes, indeed!" Adlaide said smil ingly. "The room is lovely." QUITE FRANK j "Yea, it's pleasant enough," the rich girl admitted. , "I am going to have a belt arranged from mother a room on the second floor to your room up here en the. third. She gets dreadfully de pressed and. sends for ma. Now yea are here, you can gar-to her tt such times. stelle her maid, waits on her of course, yet mother gets the blues and wants one of her own kind. Sick people are unreasonable, aren't they?" "Perhaps they are." Adelaide rejoined. She "was embarrassed . at this - sudden confidence on the part of her employer's daughter. Patricia may hv - observed J "X am talking very frankly with you. v You will- be with mother so much that you musi .iuioenuuia now wings - arc And. while we are on this subject, the reason X Insisted on a companion for mother was so that X could get some re lief. . . .. . f : :I am only 19.

"If Daugherty wants to let them people off and not cinch "em. that's his business mt ft?" i "It would be his'n if he wasn't s'posed to be worktn for the people." T, Paer conceded, 'But. being a alleged publ ic servant, it's a little different ain't it?" "I ain't going to argue about it," Polly replied, "but them congressmen 'nd sen ators'd better be trying to cut, down taxes than dancing "round Daugherty in a circle 'nd getting no place." "I ain't sure they won't get no place," T. Paer replied. "If they keep on dancin they may have Jim goin 'round in a circle hisself before long. "What good'U it doT' Polly demanded. "If he gets to going 'round in a circle he won't get much done in his office will he?" "Well T. Paer said thoughtfully, "if a chip gets goin' 'round in a whirlpool it usually does one of two things sooner or later." "What's that?" Polly asked doubt fully. "It either shoots outside of it," T. Paer explained, for gels siK-ked down : the funnel in the middle of it 'nd out of sight." "Well, if that bunch think they're goin' to suck Jim Daugherty down and out of sight in any political whirlpool, they're, out of luck," Polly answered. "Jim's too sharp for 'em." "SometimeB." T. Paer suggested, "fel lahs get so allfired sharp they cut their own throats. "Not Jim." Polly Insisted. "And. be sides, the administration won't stand for his getting the worst of it." '"Not even," T. Paer asked ironically, "if he's givin' the people the administra tion's s'posed to be workin' for the worst Of it?" "You'll have to show Harding." Polly boasted. "He stands by his friends." "I don't blame biro for that." T. Paer said, "but I should think he'd think- the taxpayers 'nd voters thafd been friendly enough to put him in the White House come ahead of Jim Daughterty." "Not on your life," Polly said. "If it hadn't been for Jim "nd some of the other fellahs like him they'd never got a chance to vote for Harding." "I guess they's something to that," T. Paer conceded. "It took a. lot of fix in' 'round to get thing shaped up." "Anyway." Polly asked argumentative ly. "what's the use of tryin' to . get Daugherty to dig into them warjbaby cases? I'd like to know." -..? 7 "Not a bit of, use," T. Paer answered dubiously. "The chests of them babies set toq close alongside Jim's campaign chest for Jim to want to disturb 'em too much." "Nineteen, too," Adelaide told her. "Well, anyway, at my age I have a right to take my fun where I can find it- It tould be ridiculous for me to waste Ifwy youth and miss my good times Slaying with mother just because she gets a whim that she wants me. And Dick is no good at that kind of thing." 5 "Dick?" "Tea. ,Iick Richard my brother. He is "more fond of nis own way than 1 am of mlne-tf thrft is possible." with ja light laugh, .""tiad la devoted to moth er, and throws fits about her being left alone with Estelle. " So 1 was determined to engage some one who would be like a daughter to mother. At first Dad was a bit opposed to it, but I soon talked him around. Then when he saw you and heard" your story and that your mother was blind, too, that clinched the bargain. And here you are !" "1 line to be here," Adelaide said. She chided herself for feeling a little shocked at the callous tone in which the rich girl mentioned her mother's afflic tion and that of Mrs. 'Brown. For, of course, it was only her manner, not her heart that was at fault. "Another thing." Patricia said, as she rose, preparatory to conducting Ade laide down to Mrs. Hollingshead, 'mother has to be helped quite a bit at table, for she cannot find her food easily on her plate. It is a bit of a nuisancs having KsteiJe standing by her chair and mother does not like it. So will you sit by mother and see that she manages her food all right?" "Of course," Adelaide said promptly. Then she was to sit at the table with the family after all. she mused. She had wondered about that whether a companion ate with her employers or was served afterwards at a second table. She was relieved that, without asking a question on the subject, her doubts on this point had been settled. "Come on and see mother, now." Patricia suggested. "She knows you sre here and will be fussing until you go to her." (To Be Continued Monday) Fraud in Election Brings One Woman 3 Months' Sentence y T7Brl Berriec) . Chicago, May 17.
