I guessed that the meekness the girl , had displayed under Mother Graham's stinging and undeserved rebuke had . been artificial, and maintained because of her sympa thy for the older woman's broken arm- and her very lively remem brance of the experience she had undergone during : her ' absence from us. That my guess, founded upon long experience of my little maid's tempestuous moods, was a true one I saw when I entered the kitchen. For Katie stood with her arms flung out over the refriger ator, sobbing stormily, ' While the scent of scorching toast came to my nostrils. j . I dashed to the stove, pulled the toaster away from the flame, hop ing devoutly that Mother Gra ham's I usually : keen, ' & olfactory nerves would be off duty for a few seconds.; Then, without appearing to notice Katie, I hastily but an ther slice of bread, toasted it in the fashion Mother Graham likes best, and spread it daintily with butter.. X was. starting tor the din ing-room with it - when Katie flung herself npon me ; Madge Contrives Well. "Oh!" she wailed, "I no vant you to do my vork. I " , "Don't make me spill : this toast," I said practically. "Bathe your face while 1 take this in, and then sit 'down and, get calm. . . 1 want you to do something for me," I did not wait for her obedience It is generally wise,' I have iouna, to give iutie time lor a second thought but hurried' on to the dining room and put the toast before my mother-in-law. who sniffed as she looked at the cov ered dish containing it 1 f f ' i'Tou needn't trouble yourself tofbring me any toast that has been scraped off after burning," she said tartly, making ,no attempt to lift the cover of the dish.. . "I haven't," I returned, laconi cally. "This toast isn't burned." "How dare yomstand there nd tell me anything like that!" she snapped. "I distinctly smelled it burning." J; : My , sympathy- with J Katie had been steadily rising since" I en tered the "room, and if my mother-in-law had .been well I am afraid I should have answered her in dis tinctly irritated and, disrespectful fashion. But the Jines ofipain etched in her face disarmed me, even as they f had Katie;jand t only laughed lightly in reply as I lifted the cover of the dish and waved my;hand gayly over it. " , "Dot Very Nlce " lf you can see a speck of char on that piece of toast I'll give you a dollar," I 'said.- "There was a piece of toast burning, but it was one Katie bad "put on. ' I threw that away and toasted this' : n ,She, put up het, lorgnette and inspected the' toast as If it were some, new spectes of animal dis covered by a" 'scientist."" I' knew that the action was, in pickys par lance, a "stall," meant to, give her time to change front on the toast question.: - - , :- c- , "I might have known 'better than to ask that ape of a girl to make a ' piece of toast," sha said at last, keeplriglher Voice discreet ly lowered, however, "This looks all, right might be a trifle brown erIt will do,, though. ; Bat I knew that I wasn't mistaken about smelling that toast burning. I may be losing control of my mental-faculties,. but' there's "nothing the matter with my nose as yet."" , I, repressed- with difficulty, the retort: that her x tongue appeared also to be . In splendid condition. Instead, I made a placating sug gestion, .4---l. " Wouldn't you like another cup of coffee?"-1 asked ingratiatingly. " Why! I believe I would," she answered, and I hastened to bring it. Then I slipped away again un obtrusively, fairly sure that she would summon me no more, and that X, was free to-turn my atten tion, to Katie. She was sitting In a. chair near the sink, dabbing at her eyes with a. wet towel, . evidently determined to follow, my. instructions to the letter- I took, the towel from her, gently, then turned her face to ward me. "You mustn't mind Mother Graham, Katie,' I - said firmly. "You- know she doesn't mean a word she says, and she likes you very much indeed." . Katie ldoked ' at me shrewdly, her eyes beginning to twinkle. "Dot very nice,' she said, "but I vonder me vot she do to me eef she hate me vunce. I no like to be Katie yen dot day comes." ? 3 I laughed, for my little maid Is Irreslstably funny sometimes. But I sobered: Instantly, however, won dering how best to broach Katie my belief as to the folly of her keeping the oath the strange for eigner had forced her to take.

I ? IX KWniTE v SISTER' Five years ago, although Italy was still; in-the, midst of war, a certain" luxurious villa near Soiv rento was keplr closed r from the public. Its owner was r the Ger man kaiser, Wilhelm II. Last spring, - the-, ex-kaiser's villa was used as a location for the most beautiful love scenes ever f llmod-r-the gorgeous backgrounds ot rare shrubs, exquisite", trees and the crystal clearness of mir rored pools were stage settings for the playing of Lillian Gish and Ronald Colman in "The White Sister.'! '. s - , These scenes swhich bring gasps of awe from the audiences which witnessed them' are-only a part of the beauty ot Mias Gish's finest film, "The; 'white Sister.'' which wlll.be shown at tho Grand theater soon. ..." J ' . LILLIAN "The White Sister,", heralded as the triumph of the brilliant screen career of Lillian Gish. will - have its premiere at the Grand theater today. The story Is from the fam ous novel by P. Marion' Crawford, and the production has been pro claimed as one of the most sig nificant films ever, made. . s,i Rome, Naples, Sorrento, Tlvoli, and even Mt. Vesuvius are some of the locations actually used In the filming of this "great picture and the result, according to the-; critics in the larger cities where It has been shown mostly as a $2 attrac tion, is the most beautiful produc tion yet screened. Besides Miss Gish: to interpret the thrilling story, the cast in cludes Ronald Colman, a newcom er to the screen who has scored a sensational success; J. Barney Sherry a motion picture pioneer; Gall Kane, heroine of many Broad way successes, and a thousand others drawn from the ranks of European players. J GISH 4 'The White Sister tells ; the story of Angela Chiarmonte, the daughter of an Italian prince, who Is made penniless because of an in trigue of her older sister. The only, thing left to sustain, her Is her love for Captain Giovanni Sev eri, of the Italian army. For a time she Is happy, but he Is called to Africa on a: military expedition, and Angela 'is left to tali up her life of a governess. Then she ' receives word " he J has been killed by the Arabs. Stunned by the blow, Angela is driven fran tic, and In order "to find some peace of mind, and a definite place in lfe, she takes the vows as a nun. - ! - . .. Shortly after thjs Giovanni, who has merely been held prisoner by Arabs, escapes and returns' to Rome. - How Sister Angela solves the problem of. choosing between her great earthly love and her heavenly vows supplies the dram atic situation that leads up to the powerful climax. ; :: riore Statements Filed : ; Primary Candidates Candidates of the present pri mary election yesterday .filed, ex pense statements with the- secre tary of state as follows: . . .
