saw the disapproving frown upon
the face which she turned toward
me. I took from my face the mask
of airy artlessness which I had
put on for her benefit, and. pocket
ed It where I could get at It hand
ily when I should encounter the
veranda tables. And It was with a
mien almost as forbidding .as her
own that I accosted her.
"May I nave three minutes of
your time where no one can. hear
us?" I asked, j '. .
. She . looked at me searchlngly
for a second., .and then, . her face
clearing, she waved her hand to
ward a door at the side of the dining-room.
.r,- ; -. .
"Come Into my own 'sitting
room." she said. "It ,1a small but
it is the only place I. can call my
own, and no one comes near it un
less I say so."i '"''-" ---v
"I could well believe that," I
said to myself, as I followed her
into an austere, plainly, furnished
but comfortable little sitting-room,
and took the chair to which she
motioned me. . "- '
"Now," she" said, closing the

mine, "what's on : your ! mind ?
Thought better of trying to pull
the wool over my eyes with that
'best friend stuff?-' 5
"'Something like that." I rejoin
ed prompt:?, although the blunt-
ness ot the attack, coupled with
the keen Insight It betrayed, start
led me. , "I am going to lay the
exact case before you, ; and -1 am
sure you will pproTe of my
course." ' :' - : I ,.
A Frank Confession. :
"Humph," she responded non
commitaUy. "Go on i . f , - t :
"In the first place," I said brisk
ly, "Miss Foster Is not my best
friend, nor even a very dear one.
But I know her. quite ,weU. She
has been a guest at my home, and
I would stake my life upon the
certainty that in this absurd per
formance there has been nothing
really wrong. But I realize as you
do, that she has' been highly indis
creet, as well as most fncqnsider?
ate of me. ;
"Naturally," I went pn. " I do
not particularly relish coining jap
here, either' to see her or my hus
band, whom I blame far. more than
I do her. . But, Mrs. Barker, I
have a little boy, and my husband
has an old mother. For their sakes,
as well as, my own, I must silence
gossip. Can you tell me any better-

deceive you, of course, but (Isn't
it reaUy the best, after all?"; ;
She looked at me steadily for n
long minute.
Mrs. Barker'ApoIogizes.
"It Isn't often I'm mistaken In
my1, judgment," she said, and I
thought t whimsically , of Disko
Troop, "and when I am I'm ready
to acknowledge it. I knew you
weren't the fool unsuspecting baby
youj seemed, but I thought maybe
you were trying to gloss over this
because you 'had been cutting up
some caper of your own that you
wanted your husband to over
loot - - - :v-,.- - .: .
I could repress neither a wrath
ful! start nor the flaming of my
cheeks at this interpretation pi .my
coming to the rescue of Dicky and
Claire Fester.
'You needn't be disturbed.'
Mrs. Barker said coolly, f I just
told you I knew I was mistaken.
I believe what you have just told
mej and X agree . with you that
you're taking the best course. And
I'U help you all I can. which, I
guess, '.will be by keeping .put of
your way as much as possible." I'm
free to tell yon that I .don't , cot
ton much to either your husband
or Miss Foster, and the less I see
of fbem Jhe less apt -I'll be to say
things." i .,. .r-'
"That will be perfectly all
right,!' . I answered, . glad, indeed,
to have found her so tractable.
"But may I ask you to set a place
for! Miss Foster at the table? She
will have supper with us."
GoIng to exhibit her, are you?"
Mrs. Barker gave a short, unpleas
ant little" laugh, then turned -to
me with contrition written. pn her
face.
I'Excuse me," she said awkward
ly,! and I guessed that she was not
much used to asking pardon of
anyone. "I'm not usually so bad
mannered, but the idea of your
treating that hussy as though she
were something way up in G seems
awfully funny and strange to me."
f'But, Mrs. Barker," I pleaded,
wLLh an honest effort to modify
the woman's patent prejudice.
"You're wrong . about her. - .She's
simply a headstrong and indiscreet
girl. She is not in the least, in
love with my husband, and she has
not hurt me except by embarrass
ing .me .with this publicity." . And
we must" remember - that she is
young." Y : -
j "She's old enough, to know bet
ter." Mrs. Barker returned un
compromisingly. ; 'But I'll keep
my mouth shut, and let her get
away Jn , peace, and I'll .help you
all I can."

LONDON, Feb. 14 Umbrellas

have appeared in London and are
considered quite the thing among
fashionably dressed young women,
j The umbrellas are althogether
tpo unwieldy to be carried by the
handle, so are attached to the
arm by means of a heavy silk,
cord. But they have the advan
tage of doing away with the van

the owner carries her . powder. box,

Now Form Part of Hos
pital Dietary I,
"Bottled carboqated t beverages
are part jot the daily diet iof pa
tients in ; many hosjiitbj"j : Miss
Vera Kendrick, chjef jjietitjan at
the Springfield hospital, told mem
bers of-the Eastern ,5da.jv7ater
Bottlers association at their ,re
cent meeting in Springfield Maas.
"There are several -reasons for
this use of bottled 'carbonated
beverages Jn hospital dietary,"
Miss Kendrick stated, "but the
main one is that the manufactur
ers ' are , ca.reful . to see thai only
the purest and b.est'inBTedints go
Into their beverages and that they
are manufactured under sanitary
conditions,: also that modern scien
tific Investigation and experiment
have dlsproyen prejudices once
held against 'soda water. It has
been shown .that a bottled, car
bonated beverage is I not (merely
'sweetened water bu,t (is "a food
product baving more calories ihan
many 'foods 4n common' use; and
that the gas which puts the! bub
bles In it is" not , harmf ol, but very
beneficial 4o the health."
Miss Kendrick urged the jbottl
ers to Jkeep up the 'high standard
ot their products in strict accord
ance with the United States pure
food laws and the advice of ; the
scientists of their national associ
ation's research fellowship at
Iowa State, college. She also com
mended the national association's
Code of Ethics, saying:
"I have had the . pleasure of
reading and heartily endorse the
Code of Ethics promulgated by
the American Bottlers of Carbon
ated Beverages. - l.ive up to that
code, keep it religiously, and you
cannot tail of increasing success."
