Always, it seemed to me, this lovnl} girl was thinking of someone other than DA "I was told that you were putm up preserves," I said, after she greeted me cordially and urged me to sit down. "I suppose Kitten told you that. Shows how much l;"bowq about what‘s going on back ," she smiled indulgently, "I finighed those an hour ago," she nodded ‘to a , board which held row after row glasses, all of ‘uniform size with fres paraffin tops. | The grape jelly shone like old Burgundy in the bright mornâ€" ing~light andâ€" there were also jars of golden marmalade with bits of lemâ€" on peel and spices which Thankful said Kitten liked with tiny hot bisâ€" cuits and tea. . n 1 I "You smart thing!" I t xclaimed, "and what kind of cake is comâ€" plicated thing going to be ?" 1 “Chocohteâ€"mnhmallmrdp," she enumerated, "the kind adores!" The pantry was a large and cheer ful place. Sunshine filzfi dottedâ€"swiss curtains in blu gingham and Thankful was standi by a white, pine shelf mixing the int gredients for a cake. i { "Thankie‘s in the kitchen," she anâ€" nounced, "putting up jam." Go on back.‘ She designated the rear of the house with a wave of her hand and rudely started towards the sitting room reading as she went. | _ I her eyes, as if she resented being called from a new novel‘she held in her| hand. Instantly I knew that thig was one of ‘Thankful‘s sister wh#n she, struggled to shield from all hardships by overtaxing her own strength, which was none too robust. A pretty young girl of about sevenâ€" teen opened the door. It was‘ ph'tn to see that she was not at all the old:fashioned type. Her mannerisms Kere all of the new generation and there was a bit of a frown between The garden, which stretched 't sides of the old brick walk, ical of Thankful md‘km she spent many hours there.

Tell you what I‘ll do. I want th? shop and I‘m goâ€" ing to have it, but I need your help. I don‘t know a darn thing about books. All I can do is discuss Michael Arien and Carl Van Vechten and other auâ€" thors of ‘best sellers‘ as they come along, but when it comes to real literâ€" ature I‘m a total blank. The only deâ€" cent .things I‘ve read were at college and I‘ve forgotten most of them. Turâ€" genef, Tolstoy and Balzac sounds like Yes, I thought, while Kitten fiitâ€" ted about to parties and Addie went out to some interesting work and mingled with people, forming stimuâ€" lating contracts and getting colorful experiences, while she stayed at home to cook and sew and drudge her life away in drab and monotonous rouâ€" tine! § % "Well you see I‘ve always had a passion for books.. I took a library course at school and if I‘d been rich I should have been a collector for there isn‘t anything that gives me more pleasure than Association with books. I thought I‘d get a position in the library here and father passed â€"on but Kitten and Addie didn‘t take to housekeeping so I felt it would be betâ€" ter for them if I stayed at home." "But it sounds perfect!" I declared, "how on earth did you know about it ?" I asked. i She smiled. "I love (your enthusâ€" iaam," she said, "I believe you‘re ready to write a check but I wouldn‘t want you to do anything until you talk:to him about it and see the place for yourself." who is a Parisienne, became very unâ€" happy heve so he decided it would be better to sell out and leave before he spent a lot more money advertising and getting the shop properly launchâ€" ed. : He is willing to get out for much less than he spent." $ t ol "How thrilling," Icried, "really Thankful, I can‘t imagine anything more fun than owning a cunning book shop and running it myself! How much does he want for it?" "No one does because it hasn‘t been opened to the public yet. You see he fixed up the place and.then his wife, "On Twentieth street," Iâ€" mused "What place is it? I don‘t seem to know it at all." "It‘s a book shop," she announced, "there is the most charming place on Twentieth street down town that a Russian owns, but he wants to sell out and go to France." * # P "That‘s the way I had you figured out," she replied, "you looked to me like a person who was straining at a leash, struggling to free yourself from conditions which held you too close. So it occurred to me that you might love a proposition which, as I said, was made to me." ; "Please tell m all about it," I urged. P "Well, 1 AM serious about it and if you‘ll just tell me what I can ‘do I certainly will be glad. You see, Thankful, all my life I‘ve done nothâ€" ing but sit over a bridge table or chase about to luncheons where you see the same type of people and talk about nothing but dieting and permaâ€" nent waves. Really I‘d give anything to try my hand at something else." "I was thinking if you really meant it about wanting to do something be: sides play that I might be able to sugâ€" gest a thing that was offered to me," she began, resuming the conversation which we had started at the circle meeting the day before. 4 se 4600 % A Clark Motnlnd wife to S.
