Knowing Katherineg method eal nature I was not surprised to receive another letter from herj upon Wednesday night, marked:; "special delivery." She had not named thet hour of her arrival in the first lettr, and, as I expect ed when I opened the envelope, 1 found that she had remedied tn? ommission with her usual tboughtfuInea3. "We shall be with you on the train reaching Marvin at 4:1)0 o'clock Thursday afternoon," the brief note ran. "I could not tell at the time I wrote before Just what train we could get. Loving ly ; ''KATHERINK." "That's a short letter for a spe cial." Dicky remarked idly, as 1 slipped the sheet of notepaper in-' to the envelope again. We were all gathered before the open fire in the living room. It was the first chilly evening we had had, and we were revelling in the comfort of the blazing logs. Katie had brought the letter and the book for my signature in such flamboyant fashion that, the at tention of every one In the room was unconsciously fixed upon the missive. I shot a quick, furtivn appeal at Harriet Bralthwaite. "Yes isn't it?" I responded carelessly. Before thera was a chance ei ther for me to volunteer an ex Dlanat'on concorning the letter or for any one else to comment upon it, Harriet crumpled toward the stde of her chair, apparently in pain. "Oh. Edwin!" she exclaimed faintly. We all sprang toward her chair. but I did not share the alarm of the others, .'or I had a shrewd suspicion thut she was simply feigning pain in order to divert the attention of every one from the letter which she must have guessed was from Katherine. Instant Attention. Her big husband was the first to reach her side. "What is It. dear?" he asked with anxious tenderness. "The old pain again? Water, please!" He spoke over his shoulder with the authoritative brevity of a man accustomed to the military-like obedience of everybody under him. ' Dicky had a glass filled with water at his elbow in record breaking time. Dr. Bralthwaite, one arm around his wife, had drawn a little vial from his pock et with the other hand. "Open it," be said to me. I did so, and from the rial he took a tablet and held it toward his wife. I noticed her hesitate Just an instant and was 'surer than before that her illness iras but a subterfuge. Then she swal lowed the tablet obediently and drank the water her husband held to her lips.. "It isn't a bad attacl she said in a minute or two. ''I shall be perfectly all right as soon as I have lain down a little while." I was bending over ber solicit ously, and I caught her cue and acted upon it at once. "Do let ma go up with yon, Harriet." I said. "Thank you. You are most kind, and I shall be very glad to have you with me." she responded with her usual formal courtesy. Alone Together. Dr. Braithwaite bent over ber, took her hands and lifted her to her feet. "Are you sure you are all right to get upstairs?" "Posltiveiy," 8he returned, smiling- at him. He half-led. half-carried her up me stairs, through the upper hall to her room, put her upon the bed, removed her shoes and pulled the coverlets over her deftly. "Do go back to the others, now, Edwin," she said. "You know that all I need 1 nttln rest, and Margaret will take care or me Deeutiirlly. I do hope mother didn't bear us." Mother Graham had bed early with a slight headache 1 inrnx if tlsn had been In iw group Dy the fire her daughter would not have dared to alarm her Dy nretcmdlng illness.

"I'm absolutely ail rihf she said, and her husband beii and kissed her tenderly. "See that you take .too! cai of her." he admonished me with a piaytuny lifted forennger. "I feel like a beast." his wife said when he had doeed the door. "Of course, ron know that thre is absolutely Nothing taa matter with me unless that unceeded dose of heart tonic should stimu late that organ a little too much, but I thought that letter ws from Katherine. and was afraid some one might find it out " "It was.", I said quietly, wish in a- I might tdd the assurance 1 relt that as far as testing Dr. Bralthwaite was concern?,", this projected meeting might never have been planned. (To te continued Principals of public schools in! Marion countv in session Saturday j went on record as favoring thf county unit law passed by the! 1921 legislature. The law, wnkh Is optional with : each county, provides ' that the entire vunty shall be one dis trict, and that all teachers, ex cepting those In districts of the first class, shall be engaged by a board of five elected at large, and that this board shall purchase all supplies for the -.chools. Directors of eacn district are to serve in their usual capacity, ex cept in the engaging of teachers and buying of school supplies. Di rectors of each district have the right to refuse to accept any teacher that the county board might assign them. With the county unit plan fav ored by, the leading educators of the county, the county board would select a county superinten dent, wtio would select teachers, place them, fix their salaries, build school houses where neces sary and procure needed appara tus. A blanket tax would be levied upon all that part of the county contained in the rural school dis trict, and all teachers in the sub districts would receive the same pay for the same work. One of the arguments in favor of the county unit plan, advanced at the principals' meeting was that two districts cf etiual wealth, one Rastus says that it is all right for .turkeys to be "lower" this holiday season, but. that for. him it 'is necessary for the moon to shine.
