Chapter 28 JUI.ES RETURNS 1'VigiiU'iii'd, unhappy and puzzled as Margaret was when she reached )!'-: room, her mental condition did not Improve aa she sat and waited lor her husband and tried to come to a decision as to what it would be b' st to tell him. And should she say anything at all about her meeting with the German officer? icriifips it would be as well to make no reference to him, Inas much as she had tacitly agreed to regard what he had said as conli dential. It would be rather foolish and pointless to say to Jules: "J. met Herr schlacht and had a chat with him, but cannot repeat our conversation to you." Besides, the whole Incident was utterly Insignificant In comparison with the other matter of which she must speak. At the end of one ol the longest arm unnappiest days of her life, Margaret's husband knocked at the bolted door of Margaret's room, and, protesting surprise at finding the door bolted and barred against him, was admitted after satisfying her as to his identity. Jocular, facetious, flamboyant, en deavoring to hide lack of ease by CUNDOWN THE BIG BOX By Mary Graham Bonner "Isn't it wonderful!" exclaimed Rip, the Dog, as the animals trooped outside and saw over WiUy Nilly's home and shop the freshly painted sign reading: "WILLY NILLY AND COMPANY REPAIR SHOP AND THINGS JUST FOR PUN." Rip, the dog, particularly liked the sign because he had been given a home by Willy Nilly and Willy Nilly had told him that he was the "company" part of the Willy NiUy and Company. "You did a very good Job," said Top Notch, the Rooster, "and the paint which you got some time ago at my General 8tore shows up very well." But now they all went back Into the shop so they could see and hear more about the games and surprises Willy Nilly had in the big box. It was a very, very largo box and during the time the animals had been asleep or off a-wandcrlng he had filled it with many, many pack ages which contained Things Just for Pun. "I must really go to sleep Just as soon as I get out the first package for all of you," Willy Nilly said. He opener the package. Inside was a map J the United States mounted on a cover of a cardboard box. "Now," said Willy Nilly, "here 1 have a map, and I'll cut out every state, and Uien you can put It all together again, making every part fit." Willy Nifty showed them how to put together the first two pieces, and rjell Duck, standing on a single foot, used the other foot to arrange the pieces. But now Willy Nilly simply had to take a nap. When he awoke they had not progressed very far. Mrs. Quacko was trying to fit the state of California next to Illinois, and It mixed up the whole thing. Tomorrow Flotilla' Botill. fake and noisy easiness, and to conceal eonsouuMiess of wrong-doing by exaggerated dcmonstratlve ncss, Jules Miilitnl found his wife in no mood for the reception ol forced humor or forced affection. As he advanced to put his arms about her, he found himself coolly, lirmly, and very definitely, checked and repulsed. Expecting fierce an ger, accusation, and a torrent of re proach, he found an attitude ol calm, cool seriousness and deter mination, that was more disturb ing. Rightly or wrong, he firmly be lieved, in the light of a not exigu ous experience, that the best way to argue with an angry woman was with a closed mouth pressed firm ly against hers; and that any of fended girl can be quickly kissed from bad temper Into good temper. But this was not an angry and bad tempered woman. It was a woman cruelly hurt, bad ly frightened, and quite determined upon her line, of conduct. "I say, I'm terribly sorry about lost night," he began, as Margaret's extended hand repulsed his. em bracer "I don't know what they gave me, but one minute I was sit ting there chatting with dad and the Kaid and old schlacht and Ralsul and the next minute I woke up In dad's room, hours later, and absolutely blotto." Tell me, Jules. Did you get drunk? Just be serious and tell me the truth, because it's most terribly Important. I won't say a word ol reproach." Drunk, my dear, on a glass or two of claret? You don't think my head's as weak as all that, do you? Have you ever seen me drunk, or In the slightest degree the worst' for drink, in all the years that you nave known me?" No, I naven't, Jules, until came to Morocco. You've been drinking far more than is good for you, lor the last six months It seems like six years. But I have not seen you drunk." Gently snaking his head, Jules smiled reproachfully. "And you really did not get drunk last night, Jules?" Jules again smiled reproachfully, ana treated the question as un worthy of further answer. "Very well then," continued Mar. garet. "You must have been drug ged deliberately as I honed and itnew. "You hoped and knew I should be drugged?" 'I didn't say that. On hearing that you were Insensible, speech less, apparently dead drunk, I hoped that you had been drugged. I knew you had been drugged. I was cer tain you had not merely made a beast of yourself." "Thank you," Interrupted Jules Mangnl with a hint of sarcasm. very kind of you." "Well, kindness Is a virtue." he continued, as Margaret, white fac ed and big-eyed, watched him with intent anxiety, "and virtue is Its own reward. You have It for I exercised exactly the same virtue of kindness toward you. Both of us kind, and both of us, rewarded." 'I was going to say you show your kindness in a curious manner, Jules, in leaving me alone here all night, but of course It wasn't your fault. It was my misfortune. But It mustn't happen again, Jules. You mustn't leave me alone again, while we're here. And we mustn't be here a day longer than Is absolutely necessary for making preparations for the Journey." Wliy this sudden fear of being alone, and this unrest?" "I should be afraid to be left alone again as I was last night because of Ralsul." "Ahl" observed Jules non-com- mlttally.
