HOW MADGE WON" Katherine and I started guiltily at Hftty's deep, offended tones. Lillian's colored took, who had been "with her for many years, was, in Dicky's parlance, "a reg ular Tartar." Because 'her ser vices and her culinary' ability were so valuable Lillian put up with many things for which she otherwise would have dismissed her. That the woman was devoted to Lillian. I knew. From-rather a close study of her I had gathered that her pet vanity was the. Idea that Lillian would be lost with out her, that no one could run the Underwood kitchen as she did. I had already resolved to use this knowledge of her mental make-up In dealing with her should she' show signs of having one of her tantrums. The signs were very much In evidence as she came slowly Into the kitchen. Her scarlet turban was awrya sure sign of mental disturbance with Betty, her eyes were flashing ominously, and htr face wasfsrft in angry lines, while with foldejd a'rms she glared around her Invaded kitchen, and the dishe. and food which (Cath erine and I had brought out. -1 i A Memory That Helped. Every line of her was an im pertinence, and I had io smother the impulse to open the door and tell her 'to leave the room. But one of Lillian's sayings about Betty flashed into my mind. "A genius of the Betty typa Is usually like an irresponsible, Bpoiled child." she bad said, "with the lamentable exception that you can spank the . child. What would be unpardonable im pertinence In another employe is simply an ebullition of childish naughtiness with Betty, and you simply have to make allowances for it." Fortified by the warning I turned to the old woman with a Joyous air. Ignoring the thunder clouds. "Oh. Betty!" I exclaimed. "Vnt so glad you're up. I didn't want to wake you because you were up so late last night, and must have Iwren so tired. ! But old Mrs. Mor ton Is gone, and, of conr. Miss (Catherine is just worn out. so I had to' get her something to erA And then Miss Lillian expects Mr. .Savarin and, his ulster, Mrs. nosprove, on the train from the Catskills this morning. "They- ought to ,be here soon; and,: of course. Miss Lillian wants breakfast for tbem. They're : go ing" to take little Miss Marlon back with them right away, so that It won't be necessary to tell her that her grandmother is dead. I know I've mussed up the kitchen a loti but I didn't know where things were. I'm so glad you're here to take hold," I was palpably nervous, for talking thus to Betty was 1'ke reat ing at sight a sheet of unfa miliar music. I had no idea' when I might-strike the wrong key. Hut 1 rattled on, giving her no time to reply.? until I saw the haTBh-lijnes fade out o her face and her eyessoften. I was un prepared, however, to hear her ive one of her loud, rollicking laughs, sure sign with Betty that she was in high good humor. So Secret to Betty. j Miss Madge, your time's sure wasted," she said, wiping her eyes. tou ougni io ne an x- horter at camp meetm . Ail me ooor sinners wouia ue iainn over theirselves to get to the mourners bench If you just talked pwhiie." She laughed again, then sur veyed h"r kitchen with supert but good-humored contempt. ' "I never did see such a mess fn my whole life!" she declared with great Injustice. for'Kather- ine and I had really been most c?reful; to kep everything neat. "Now, j both you ladies just trot right Unto the breakfast room where you belonrs, and I'll bring you something fit to eat in a jiffv. ..." "That coffee and ceres VII have to fio now": her tone consigned our culinary efforts, to the nether most .depths of oblivion, although both Katherine and I pride our selves uDOtr our ability to make coffee Vbut I'll fix you. up' some thin decent J besides. An tlien when I get you out of the way I'll get-up a! breakfast that Is a breakfast for Miss Lillian's com pany. Where is Miss Lillian, anyway?" she demanded, turning on n.ie as if she suspected me of murering her mistress and hid ing her in the coal cellar. "Asleen-with little Miss Mar Ion,". I answered, careless cf the ruth ;if I could sh'eH Lillian from i an Interview with Betty. "But you surely don't need to see her. about breakfast for Mr. Sav arin and .his Bister." , "When I needs to se anvbody about what to set for a comnany breakfast it'll be time for Betty 'i, start for the Home for de Feeble-Minded," she stated grand ly. I just wanted to Tlx her up some coffee and stuff if she was awake." "I told her I would waken her a half-hour before the -time for their arrival. Then you can take her a cup of coffee if you wish. But. I'm sure shell want to take he rest of her breakfast wrth her guests. !' 'Yo.n don't need to tell me nn Urn' about that " Betty replied with, a chuckle. "I just guess she will want to eat with 'em. T ain't got eye's In mv head for nutbin. Now get along with you. ' I's rot something to do this morning.-1 hat." i ; And as we "got along,"? hldinr our aruiles as besf we ronld. I hidden admiration for Robert Savarin was no tecret- to the faithful cervltor in her kitchen.
