Good God. mother! Are you crazy?
For one minute it seemed to me that

What are you thinking of when you

snake of a Priscilla Bradford poison

tions of one of the sweetest and dear-
est women on earth. a woman whose
shoes your miserable son is unworthy
to remove from her dainty feet?

—I will not tell you what I would do.
It is too monstrous. this thing that
you have written me. I can hardly
speak the word "divorce" in connec-
tion with Leslie. let alone write it.
If anything should happen that 1
should be separated from Leslie. I
would want to die. The greatest hap-
piness I have ever known has been
since Leslie has Down my wife.
There is one thing. hooner. I am
d—-—d sure of an dthat is. if you did
MAJOR
not happen to be my mother I would
never think of making you any ex-
planation about Leslie's being in New
York. I would consider it was none of
your business.
You had better never let me come
in contact with that precious Priscilla
Bradford of yours unless you want me
to do her some physical violence. The

Just let me tell you one thing right
now. I can‘t make you - apologize lo

I can make you stay away from her
until you have apologized to me for
your ‘nssty observations and insinua-
tions. I do not want you even to write

Alice Hamilton is going to Europe.
Leslie went down to Join her mother
and fathr thvre and see the child off.
It is very probable that as Karl ‘Vhit-
new has been a friend of the family
ever since he was a little boy. he was
asked to go along.
I do not rare whntvcxcuse thorn is
for his visit. If Leslie wanted to go
with him to any public place for the
evening. that, was her right. and. or
course. if he was there with hm" he
was perfectly happy and probably
showed his pride and joy at being able
to take. as bountiful a girl as my wife
to a smart rnslnuranl.
As for Leslie's smoking cigarots. that
is merely a qm siion of taste. She does
not break cnr‘ of your precious rom-
mandments by hoaring false witnnss
against llcr nulzhhor. ate least by im-
plication and insinllnlinn.
I don‘t think I was over as nntrrv
with anyonc in my life as I am with
you. I am ashamed you are my mollicz‘.
but I shall let it stand.
Bringing a child into the world is a
prerogative that any woman. shares
with every other female thing on this
earth. In requires no brains. no
reasoning powers. no sympathy. no
soul to bear a child. Only physical
strength to bear physical pain is nec-
erSary. And yet you say that mothers
always understand!
I dare not write more for it would
be something worse than I h vs said.

"Bob" hesitated. “I wish you'd
stay here. I think Mr. Gray arrived
this morning. and I expect him in.”
Tom decided that he had made
Judge Huilomn wait long enough.
He should have been in the old ras-
cal’s king row by this time. So be
said. briskly. "Wish I could. son,
but I got to see a man." ,
"Mr. Gray was here sevelI-l times
before he went away. but you were
always out." W'hen her father
showed no inclination to tarry. Bah

than she had ever used toward him.

that Jackson well. If I devote all
my time to business. it seems to me
you could afford to sacrifice an hour
to it. Just this once. That checker

Tom was offended. and. being o.
stubborn man. he bowed his back.
"Tell him to wait." be said curtly.
"I’ll not around to it soon as I can."
\Vlthout further comment the old
man pulled hm :ruy wide—awake
lower over his eyes and limped out
of'lhe room. But he did not go to
Judge Holloran's office: he was too
sore to risk further offense at the
hands of one who took malicious de‘
light in antagonizing him. so he
walked the szreets. Perhaps he had
permitted the girl to do more than
her share of the work, and hence
her inclination to take all the credit
for their Joint success was only
natural. but it was time to change
all that: time to turn a big deal with-
out her assistance. That Was the
thing to do. handle the Jackson lease
in his own way and turn it over for
.1. price for in excess of seventy-ave
thousand dollars. Such things were
being done—Tom did not know Just
how. but he could easily find out—-
and there were several thousand dol-
lars in the bank to the firm‘s
count. . ‘
A bus was about to leave. so Torn

Little priokles ran over “Bob":
she felt her whole body galvanize
when she saw Graycoming.
He entered. as she knew he would
enter. with the suggestion of having
been blown thither upon the breast
of a gale. He was electric: be
throbbed with energy: be was buns-
ing with enthusiasm. and his delight
at seeing her was
“I told Jackson you'd be out to
look at the well and the books to-
day.” "Bob" was saying. "He won't
wait an hour longer."
"Splendid! I came the blatant you
telegraphed—dropped everything. in
fact. Some of 'my men are waiting
to see me. but I haven't even noti-
fied them of my arrival. Important
too; nevertheless. I bur-

The Summer Wardrobe
The essentials of the summer
wardrobe ~nre simple f‘rocks for
morning and afternoon and sweaters
and overblousee, preferably white
for sports wear.
It is always a difficult task for the
woman who must plan carefully. in
ordea- to keep within a. not allow-'
ance. to make her preliminary selec-
tion of clothes for summer wear in
the country Her first important
purchases should be the practical
clothes which form the foundation
of hes- wardrobe. If she keeps to
one color scheme in choosing those.
she is playing safe; doubly so. if
white is her choice. for she may then
be sure that she will be smart in ap-
pearance and that her clothes will
not bear the earmarks of time for
several reasons. Not only is white
unusually becoming. but it cleans
beautifully and makes the most ef-
fective background for the accessor-
ies that every one seems to carry
this season. such as a jade green.
parasol or a yellow bead necklace.
Simplicity should be the first and
model selected should be unquestionp
ably smart. but not too definitely
"of the mode." In other words. it
should not be a. standard dross

White crepe de chins is a ham
choice. and frocks of this material
one may purchase and wear with the
assurance that one will not meet in

The next purchase might easily be
the ever-practical linen frock til“
is in the wardrobe of most well-
dressed women. This should be out
~bn the simplest fashion.
The question of the very essential
sweater is the next problem. The
average woman probably has in her
wardrobe several of the gay sweat-
ers of last season or may have purb

The purchase of a smart sports

suit in the clothes world. The wo-
