It would have rankled less II David had shared her Inner resent- ni ur admitted once that tbey hurt been unfairly used. Hut David would no more permit Ills wife to criticize his mother Mian be would licnnlt bin mother to criticize Fanny. The first clash between Fanny and her niotlier ln law came from Fanny forgetting or Ignoring the unwritten law of the household that y w) A ii h "Do you think you're-particularly i guest must be prepared tor elab orately lb advance. ., The first Sunday after hor return rora the seashore Fanny was Idling , on thjs front porch when she saw Dr. S u tor passing the house. Dr. Sutor iiad bees one ot the physicians in Attendance on Sheila, and he came icross the lawn to Inquire tor his imnll patient . He stayed to talk and was still there when tho supper gong Bounded. '. "You must bave supper wltb us," Fanny Insisted. "1 won't let you say no," :, As Was their Sunday custom, Mrs1. Frost and David bad spent the aft ernoon napping.- Mrs. Frost liked Dr. Suter well enough as well, that Is, as she liked any nowcomer but btr room was Just over the porch, and the voices and laughter had annoyed ant) disturbed her. Moreover, Mrs. Frost distinctly dis approved ot a married woman pending practically the eutlre aft ernoon alone with an unmarried msn. In full sight ot every passer by. . - It cannot be wondered that Mrs. . Frost's grootlug matched her name, .nor that she made small elTort to r.ouccnl bar displeasure. David and Fanny did what they could to cover up ber lack ot cordiality, but their guest escaped as soon rt be decent ly could. Fanny's cheeks and hor eyes wer'o blniliig, but she tried to speak lightly. . "Will you loll me please what the trouble Is? lias the bank tailed, or inmethlnR?" "Corlalnly nut." said Mrs. Frost. "Dr. Suier had kept me awake for two hours. 1 could not pretend to any great enthusiasm at his cpn tinned presence. And hereafter, Fanny, I must ask you to let me know beforehand when you want to Invite a friend or acquaintance to break bread with us." "I'm sorry we kept you awake. Hut the supper was delicious; and anyway I didn't know in advance. Dr. Sutor was here and slipper was ready It seemed only clvlllicd to ask him to stay. I tlinuKh you liked hi m. I know David does."

"Sheila was a little restless last night 1 must see how she Is. I'm rather tired myself." At the best ot times Fanny bated dominoes, and Just now she was In a mood to kick them, box and all, to the celling. She was perfectly tree to entertain there! About as free as Stubby the catl ! "You may go," said Mrs. Frost graciously, "but don't stay too long." Half an hour later Fanny, tn somewhat better humor, settled herself In her sitting room wltb B novel. Came presently the new maid Virginia. "Mis' Frost wants you down stairs." "Ask Mrs. Frost, please, to ex cuse me. Tell ber I'm undressing." "Yessum." said Virginia. She was back shortly. "Mis' Frost says to come on down In your dressing gown." Fanny gritted ber teetb. "Tell Mrs. Frost 1 bave a head acheno. Just tell her I'm reading and would like to be excused." Ten minutes later David ap peared. "1 think you'd bettor come down," be said gravely. "Why?" sweet and reasonable?" asked David. "Well, It would enBe the situation. Mother really didn't mean to hurt your feelings. Entertaining with hor Is a sacred ritual. After all, II fs Mother's bouse " . "Exactly," said Fanny. i "Look here, Fan, do you think you're being particularly sweet and reasonable?" "No, porbaps hot, but I'm feeling neither Sweet nor ronsonnble. It you must know, I'm spoiling for a fight." ' - David laughed, kissed her, ruf fled her hair. "Come on down, .Fan, that's a good girl," ' Fanny sat up abruptly and thumped the two cushions on tho couch beside her. "1 suppose It hasn't occurred (o you that there's a principle In volved?" "Whrit principle?" 1 "Freedom, Independence the fight to call my soul uiy own. I'll grant that 1 was wrong to Invite Dr. Suter. Hut." again Fanny thumped the cushions, "now my desire, my rampant desire, is to remain In my own part cf the bouse and not (o play dominoes I I Shouldn't I have tho right to be alone when I feel Clio urgo?" -" "There's another principle In volrJd," said David, "my right as a breadwinner to n poncoful hi.rmonl ous homo. Mother has mado a great polut of your coming down she'll bo bitterly offended It you don't. It's up to you to decide whether an hour or two ot privacy is worth sev eral days at least of strain and dis cord with mo nt the (ocus point." Fanny wanted to cry out that this was unfair begging the luosllon. If Dnvld had ouco concr led that she had a right to stay In her room, or even been a llttlo sympathetic, Fanny would have mcltod mil gone downstairs cheortully enough. In stead, she told herself, Dnvld would put his wishes and euso ot mind and comfort first, exactly as his mother did.- Something inside tier told her to fight It out, not to give In, no mat ter whnt the Immediate cost. Hut the spirit had nono out of hjr.
