Here. / BY KATHLE "You're excusable," Mrs, Fitzpat- Irick rejoined politely, as she had said thousands of times in this house and in this room. Geraldine had been 'their nurse since the baby's third birthday; be- fore that there had sometimes been a second. maid in the Fitzpatrick house. But with an unincreased in- come, and with the two shocking ex- penses of Janey's sudden operation for appendicitis and Deanie"s long siege with scarlet fever to pay for, Geraldine had persuaded her hus- band that the nurse was not neces- Since her long tliness, Deanle had slept with her mother, the older child sharing the adjoining room with Dean. This little estrange- ment sometimes rather troubled Ger- aldine ,it seemed to belong to the coolness and silence and reserve that wer becoming more and more a part of Dean's character. He did not seem to be unhappy, he did not conmi- plain and scold as much as he had a few years ago, but there was some impalpable, faint barrier between them that puzzled and distressed her, none the less. Dean, as she sensed without un- dgrstanding, was always measuring her by tests of whose nature she was innocently unawafe. Where she laughed, he might be frowning, and when she frowned he was very apt to laugh at her. He wanted her to be prim and cold and stiff, and af- fected No, he was not prim and cold and stiff and affected, she. would have to tell herself honestly, when this thought came . What did he want? There were moments of self-commu- nion when Geraldine had to say to herself that she did not know. When she went downstairs to- night, it was to find him all ready to go out. There was a meeting of the directorate, at the golf club, he said. Geraldine, bidding him a cheerful good night, expressed a wish that the car was available; it had been laid by for repairs for some days. H~" husband told her that Brooks was to call for him, and im- mediately afterward Mr.Brooks came in, and sat for a polite minute or two, holding his cap, smiling at the dim, shabby parlor that smelled faintly of plaster and dust, and me TALKING IT OVER With Lorna Moo Manners and Manners Speaking of manners Emerson says "Once or twice in a lite time*we are permitted to enjoy the charm of noble manners, in the presence of a man or woman who has no bar in their nature, but whose character emanates freely in their word and gesture. A beautiful form is better than a beautiful face; a beautiful be- havior is better than a. beautiful a r-- form; it gives a "igher pleasure 'han statues or oietures; it is the nest of fine arts. ("A man is but a | little thing in the midst of the ob- fects of nature, yet 3 ¥ the moral qual- ty radiating from | is countenance, he may abolish all ~onsiderations of magnitude, and in 'his manners equal the majesty of the world." I wonder what Emerson would have to say of the 'beautiful man- ner' which is taking the plac of beautiful manners.

Then Dean put on his coat and the men depart- ed. They went to the country club, to exquisitely simple rooms that were clean tiles; with noiseless attendants touching electric buttdns, and drinks served in sparkling crystal on imma- culate monegrammed linen. But Geraldine did not know that the sharp contrast between his club and his home was stabbing Dean to the soul, and she cheerfuly began to debate the question of going to the movies with mother, or staying home with George. Then Aunt Lizzie White ered in, another of the veiled widows who had always play- ed a large part in Geraldine's life. "I thought maybe you'd go out to the pletures with me, Jenny?' said Mrs. White, sighing. "Then youn go, mother, and I'll stay rest will do me good. I'm tired to death, anyway!' When Mrs. Fitz- patrick went upstairs for her wraps, Mrs. White turned to her niece, "What's the matter with you, Jerry?" she asked, looking at' her sharply and affectionately. They were devoted to each othef; Aunt Lizzle was the only person in the world who ever heard of Geraldine's aunt's chair, and looking straight into her eyes. with the puzzled ap- peal of a child. "I don't know why doubts and fears. f "I don't know!" she said, blink- ing the tears from her eyes, and try- ing to laugh. "You and Dean haven't gquarrel- od?" the older woman asked, after a silence. "Oh, dear, no--I wish we' might, for quarreling is better than--than nothing!" Geraldine protested sud- denly kneeling down beside her I'm saying this to you, Aunt Lizzie," she went on, hurriedly, "I can't say a word to mother, of course. But sometimes I feel as if---Dean acts as if--well, aa if some of the feeling we had for each other isn't there any more!"* ; Her aunt, without gaze. nodded soberly. "They all act like that!" she 'of- fered, deeply concerned. "But--" Geraldine hesitated. "But don't women sometimes lose their husbands?" she asked shamefacedly. (To be continued.)
