comment.1 During the' progress of the fire 'members of the

CHAPTER F38
THE WELCOME MADGE GOT
FROM KATIE AND MOTHER
. GRAHAM ...
As my taxicab l turned into the
farmyard - gate, I craned my neck
to Bee If any of my family were
outside. , ,' ; -.': ' ' .
The sounds ot an ax In the
VdIot north, of the house , told
me of Jim's endeavor to keep QP
with Mother Graham's insatiable
demand for wood - for the fire
place, aggravated' now " by the
most disgraceful .. . dalliance of
Winter with Spring which the
world has seen for many years.
There was no sign of any one
else outside the house, but as the
taxi driver held 'Open the door of
the car for me to alight, the side
hall "door flew, open ; and Katie
tumbled, rather than ran, down
the steps, and. grabbed my shoul
ders with eages hands.
"Oh, Missis Graham! My Missis
Graham, you : coom. home! You
coom home to Katie!." she caroled
and then with a quick movement
released me and turned tv the
doorway.- ?
: "Cooin, ba-bee; see! Here's Ma
ma!? she called, and 1 caught my
first glimpse -of ''my small son
"Come In -here quickly, and
shut that door. This child has
cold already, and he likely to
catch his death with this . fool
performance."
" I was not particularly alarmed
by the announcement of Junior
cold, tor I know, my mother-In
law's little ways. . When 'she is
particularly displeased at any
thing, and is prevented by the
proprieties from disclosing the
source . of her rancor, she is al-
I ways able to . find some appro
priate pretext for resentment:
That she strongly ' disapproved
of Katie's hysterical trelcome to
me, I well knew, and guessed that
when the girl was out. of hearing
I would listen to a recital ot her
disapproval in several volumes' ot
many, chapters each. Pending
that hectic time. X was curious to
see just what discipline she would
mete out to me for my little
maid's effusive welcome. ; ' "? '
I had not long to wait, fof
when with a cordial greeting to
her, I stopped " into : the hall and
stoopetr to pick up my little boy,
she swept him behind her with a
superb gesture, and faced ' me
with grim, critical face. ' ' j
-"Margaret, are yon crazy to kiss
and embrace this child without
first changing your outer clothing
and washing your facs and
hands? .How do you know what
infection yon may have brought
!from the city? Besides, you're

'..There was Just enough truth in
her . words to make me : flush
painfully with a sense of guilt.
Usually, I, too, take ' the precau
tions she had named. But even
at I prepared to obey her man
date, I wondered grimly whether
she. wouldn't have forgotten some
ot her precautions if Dicky, not I,
had been the unexpected visitor.
l it took all the grace I had to
speak in conciliatory fashion . to
her, but I finally managed it.
f'You are perfectly right. Mo
ther." 1 said, as I made my way
up'the stairs. . Junior's -disappointed
little wail tugging at my
heartstrings. "Be a good boy.
Junior." I tossed back at him en-
couraeinaly. "Mother , will be
right down, and we'll play."
Plays - lots?.' he ' demanded
drying his tears. "And lots of lor-
ings?" ;
I choaked a bit as the familiar
little request floated up to me
"Lots of loTings," is the quaint
phrase which Junior gives to
cuddle in my arms with its accom
paniment of caresses and hum
mln. To mv starved heart it
seemed 'years Instead ot weeks,
since I thus had held him.
"Just oceans of Llovings!"
nromised. as I hurried down the
corridor and into my room.
There, determined to give my
mother-in-law no cause for criti
cism. and actuated by my own
common sense as well, I made
complete change of clothing after
had bathed my face and hands
putting on a house gown which
had left at home, and whieh never
had seen the city whose contam
ination my mother-in-law so fear
ed. ': ; - " t "
Then, with happy rushing feet
was down in the 'living room
with my arms ' extended '- to
ward my little la,'; who was
prancing impatiently inside the
restraining arm , ot his grand
mother. She made no movement
to release him, hoever. Instead, j
she eyed me critically.
"You look to me as if you had
a cold, Margaret." she said. I
don't think you should take this
child If you have. You can talk
to him Just as well while I hold
him."
A man quite tipsy' sagged down
on the lobby lounge "beside a dig
nified clergyman.
"Thishs fine hotel.' he began.
"Yes, I find it Tery comfort
able."
Whadja.W to havin a drink?"
asked the boozy one genially.
The clergyman's face set severe-
lv. "No. thank you. I never
touch the rile stuff."

Macfarlane had been invited to
spend an evening at a friend's
houee listening to a wireless -pro
gram. At it3 conclusion the host
said. "Well. Mac. what could a
Scotsman desire better than that?
Singing, instrumentalists, a talk
on bluebottles, opera, news and
dance music all for nothing.
"Ay." said Macfarlane. "but we
didn't have any acrobats."

"No, your honor," he replied,
