'.EXCHANGING A RAINY. PAY INHERITANCE
May Whitcomb
Marlon stood, a disconsolate lit
tle figure, nor nose pressed to a.
white button against the window
pane, wutchlnK the sfoody splash
of the rain In pools outsldo, "Oh,
Mama," she said,.''! don't like the
rein. I can't play.) I can't do
anything. Why dovs It have to

Mother, busy with lUhy, glanced
up sympathetically ami wild, "1
don't like the rain cither, dear, but
perhaps It will stop before long."
Somewhat comforted -by her
mother's sympathy and under
standing, Marlon- wntehml and
waited for the rain to stop, hut It
kept on and on. No occupation
was suggested other than the
usual. Kun and play with your
tops," which did not appeal, and
by nap time Marion and Marion
were both irritable ' und out-of-sorfts.
"And I can't blame her.' said
Mother to Aunt Nell that afternoon
, when "she dropped In. "Rainy
days always make me miserable
and blue and Marlon must have
inherited It."
"Well," suld Aunt Nell, wise In
experience Knined from rearing a
large family, "possibly it's Inherit
ed, though I doubt it, hut you
might be able to help her over
come such a handicap and it will
be a handicap If she grows up fool
inn that a rainy day must bo a
gloomy, disagreeable day. I used
to try and plan something a 'little
unusual for rainy days when- the
children were small. .Sometimes
we kept u few specluL tops for
such days, or 1 bad little surprise
for them. I'll tell you, I'll start
Marion off with a rainy duy. box!"
Mother was dubious, but agreed
it was worth a trial, and a 'few
days later Marlon received a? large
parcel. Removal of the outer
wrappings disclosed a box, seaurely
tied, and pasted uc ross t he.- top
