CHAPTER V—Continued.
—13—
But at the table that noon Aunt
Jane read it to Father out loud. So
that’s how I came to know just what
was in It. She started first to hand it
over to him to read; but ns he put out
his hand to take it I guess he saw
the handwriting, for he drew back
quickly, looking red and queer.
"From Mrs. Anderson to you?” he
asked. And when Aunt Jane nodded
her head he sat still farther back In
his chair and said, with a little wave
of his hand, “I never care to read-
other people’s letters."
Aunt Jane said, “Stuff and nonsense,
Charles, don’t be silly!” But she
pulled back the letter and read It—
after giving a kind ol an uneasy
glance in my direction.
Then Aunt Jane cleared her throat
and spoke.
"You will not let her go, of course,
Charles; but naturally I had.to read
the letter to you. I will write to Mrs.
Anderson tonight.”
Father looked up then.
"Yes," he said quietly; “and you
may tell her, please, that Mary will
go.”
"Charles!"
Aunt Jane said that. But I—I al
most ran around the table and hugged
him. (Oh, how I wish he was the kind
of a father you could do that to!)
“Charles!” said Aunt Jane again.
“Surely you aren’t going to give in so
tamely as this to that child and her
mother!"
“I’m not giving in at all, Jane,” said
Father, very quietly again. “I am con
sulting my own wishes In the matter.
I prefer to have her go.”
I ’most cried out then. Some way,
it hurt to have him say it like that,
right out—that he wanted me to go.
You see, I’d begun to think he was
getting so he didn’t mind so very much
having me here. All the last two
weeks he’d been different, really dif
ferent. But more of that anon. I’ll
go on with what happened at the table.
And, as I said, I did feel bad to have
him speak like that. And I can re
member now just how the lump came
right up in my throat.
Then Aunt Jane spoke, stiff and dig
nified.
“Oh, very well, of course, If you put
it that way. I can quite well under
stand that you would want her to go—
for your sake. But I thought that,
under the circumstances, 'you would
manage somehow to put up with the
noise and—”
“Jane!” Just like that he interrupt
ed, and he thundered, too, so that
Aunt Jane actually jumped. And I
guess I did, too. He had sprung to
his feet. “Jane, let us close this mat
ter once for all. I am not Jetting the
child go for my sake. I am letting
her go for her own. So far as I am
•concerned, if I consulted no one’s
wishes but my own, I should—keep
her here always.”
With that he turned ana strode from
the room, leaving Aunt Jane and me
just staring after him.
But only for a minute did I stare.
It came to me then what he had said
—that he would like to keep me here
always. For I had heard it, even if lie
had said the last word very low, and
in a queer, indistinct voice. I was
sure I had heard it, and I suddenly
realized wFfat it meant. So I ran after
him; and that time, If I had found
him, I think I would have hugged him.
But I didn’t find him. Fie must have
gone quite away from the house. He
wasn’t even out to the observatory. I
went out to see.
The next day he was more as he has
been since we had that talk in the
parlor. And lie has been different
since then, you icnovv. He really has.
He has talked quite a lot with me, os
I have said, and I think lie’s been try
ing, part of the time, to find something
I’ll be interested in. Honestly, I think
lie’s been trying to make up for Carrie
Heywood and Stella Mayhew and
Charlie Smith and Mr. Livingstone. I
think that’s why he took me to walk
that day in the woods, and why he
\ took me out to the observatory to see
the stars quite a number of times.
Twice he’s asked me to play to him,
and once he asked me if Mary wasn’t
about ready to dress up in Marie’s
clothes again. But he was joking
then, I knew, for Aunt Jane was right
there In the house. Besides, I saw the
1 twinkle In. his eyes that I’ve seen there
once or twice before. I just love that
twinkle in Father’s eyes!
But that hasn’t come any since
Mother’s letter to Aunt Jane arrived.
He’s been the same in one way, yet
different In another. Honestly, If it
didn’t seem too wildly absurd for any
thing, I should say he was actually
sorry to have me go. But, of course,
that Isn’t possible. Oh, yes, I know he
said that day at the dinner table that
he should like to keep me always. But
I don’t think he really meant It. He
hasn’t acted a mite like that since, and
I guess he said It just to hush up Aunt
Jane, and make her Stop arguing the
matter.
Anyway, I’m going tomorrow. And
I’m so excited I can hardly breathe.
CHAPTER VI.
When I Am Both Together.
BOSTON AGAIN.
Well, I came last night. Mother and
Grandfather and Aunt Hattie and
Baby Lester all met me at the station.
And, my! wasn’t I glad to see them?
Well, I just guess I was!
I was specially glad on account of
having such a dreadful time with Fa
ther that morning. I mean, I was
feeling specially lonesome and home
sick, and not-belonging-anywhere like.
He never even spoke at the break
fast-table. (He wasn’t there hardly
long enough to speak, anyway, and he
never ate a thing, only his coffee—I
mean he drank it.) Then he pushed
his chair back from the table and
stalked out of the room.
He went to the station with me;
bqt he didn’t talk there much, only to
ask if I was sure I hadn’t forgotten
anything, and was I warmly clad.
Warmly clad, indeed! Apd there it
was still August, and hot as it could
be! But that only goes to show how
absent-minded hfe was, and how little
he was really thinking of me!
Oh, I did so hope he wouldn’t go
down to the junction. It’s so hard to
be taken care of “because it’s my duty,
you know!” But he went. I told him
he needn’t, when he was getting on
the train with me. I told him I just
knew I could do it beautifully all by
myself, almost-a-young lady like me.
But he only put his lips together hard,
There Was Company That Evening.
The Violinist.
and said, cold, like Ice: “Are you then
so eager to be rid of me?” Just as If
I was the one that was eager to get
rid of somebody!
Well, as I said, he went. But he
wasn’t much better on the train than
he had been in the station. He was as
nervous and fidgety as a witch, and he
acted as if he did so wish it would be
over, and over quick. But at the
junction—at the junction a funny thing
happened. He put me on the train,
just ns Mother hud done, and spoke to
the conductor. (How I hated to have
him do that! Why, I’m six whole
months older, ’most, than I was when
I went up there!) And then, when
he’d put me in my seat (Father, I
mean; not the conductor), nil of a sud
den he leaned over and kissed me;
kissed me—Father! Then, before I
could speak, or even look at him, he
was gone; and I didn’t see him again,
though it must have been five whole
minutes before that train went.
I had a nice trip down to Boston,
though nothing much happened. This
conductor was not near so nice and
polite as the one I had coming up;
and there wasn’t any lady with a
baby to play with, nor any nice young
gentleman to loan me magazines or
buy candy for me. But It wasn’t a'very
long ride from the junction to Boston,
anyway. So I didn’t mind. Besides.
I knew I had Mother waiting for me.
And wasn’t I glad to get there?
Well, I Just guess I was! And they
acted as if they were glad to see me—
Mother, Grandfather, Aunt Hattie, and
even Baby Lester. He knew me, and
remembered me. He’d grown a lot,
too. And they said I had, and that I
looked very nice. (I forgot to say that,
of course, I had put on the Marie
clothes to come home In—though I
honestly think Aunt Jane wanted to
send me home in Mary’s blue gingham
and calfskin shoes. As If I’d have ap
peared in Boston in that rig!)
My, but It was good to get into an
automobile again and just go! And it
was so good to have folks around you
dressed in something besides don’t-care
black alpaca and stiff collars. And I
said so. And Mother seemed so
pleased.
“You did want to come back to me,
darling, didn’t you?” she cried, giving
me a little hug. And she looked so
happy when I told her all over again
how good it seemed to be Marie again,
and have her and Boston, and automo
biles, and pretty dresses and folks
and noise again.
She didn’t say anything about Father
then; but later, when we were up in
my pretty room alone, and I was tak
ing off my things, she made me tell
her that Father hadn’t won my love
away from her, and that I didn’t love
him better than I did her; and that
I wouldn’t rather stay with him than
with her.
And she asked was he lonesome;
and I told her no, I didn’t think so;
and that, anyway, he could huve all
the ladles’ company he wanted by just
being around when they called. And
when she asked what I meant, I told
her about Mrs. Darling, and the rest,
and how they came evenings and Sun
days, and how Father didn’t like them,
but would flee to the observatory. And
she laughed and looked funny, for a
minute. But right away she changed
and looked very sober, with the kind
of expression she has when she stands
up in church nnd says the Apostles’
Creed on Sunday; only this time she
said she was very sorry, she was sure;
that she hoped my father would ’find
some estimable woman who would
make a good home for him.
Then the dinner-gong sounded, and
she didn’t say any more.
There was company that evening.
The violinist. He brought his violin,
and he and Mother played a whole
hour together. He’s awfully handsome.
I think he’s lovely. Oh, I do so hope
he’s the one! Anyhow, I hope there’s
some one. I don’t want this novel to
all'fizzle out without there being any
one to make it a love story! Besides,
as I said before, I’m particularly anx
ious that Mother shall find somebody
to marry her, so she’ll stop being di-
vorced, anyway.
A MONTH LATER
Yes, I know it’s been ages since I’ve
written here in this book; but there
just hasn’t been a minute’s time.
First, of course, school began, and
I had to attend to that. And, of
course, I had to tell the girls all
about Andersonvllle—except the parts
I didn’t want to tell, about Stella May
hew, and my coming out of school. I
didn’t tell that. And right here let me
say how glad I was to get back to this
school—a real school—so different
from that one up in Andersonvllle!
For that matter, everything’s different
here from what It is in Andersonvllle.
I’d so much rather be Marie than
Mary. I know I won’t ever be Dr.
Jekyll and Mr. Hyde here. I’lLbe the
good one all the time.
Mother’s a dear. And she’s so hap
py ! And, by the way, I think It is the
violinist. He’s here a lot, and she’s
out with him to concerts and plays,
and riding in his automobile. And
she always puts on her prettiest
dresses, and she’s very particular
about her shoes, and her hats, that
they’re becoming, and all that. Oh, I’m
so excited! And I’m having such a
good time watching them! Oh, I don’t
mean watching them in a disagreeable
way, so that they see it; and, of
course, I have to get all I can—for the
book, you know; and, of course, if I
just happen to be in the window-seat
corner in the library and hear things
accidentally, why, that’s all right.
And I have heard things.
He says her eyes are lovely. He
likes her best in blue. He’s very lone
ly, and he never found a woman be
fore who really understood him. He
thinks her soul and his are tuned to
the same string. (Oh, dear! That
sounds funny and horrid, and not at
all the way it did when he said it. It
was beautiful then. But—well, that
Is what it meant, anyway.)
She told him she was lonely, too,
and that she was very glad to have
him for a friend; and he said he prized
her friendship above everything else in
the world. And he looks at her, and
follows her around the room with his
eyes; and she blushes up real pink
and pretty lots of times when he comes
into the room.
Now, if that isn’t making love to
each other, I don’t know what is. I'm
sure he's going to propose. Oh, I’m
so excited!
I haven’t heard from Father.
Now just my writing that down that
way shows that I expected to hear
from him, though I don’t really see
why I should, either. Of course, he
never has written to me; and, of
course, I understand that I’m nothing
but his daughter by order of the court.
But, some way, I did think maybe he’d
write me just a little bit of a note in
answer to mine—my bread-and-butter
letter, I mean; for, of course, Mother
had me write that to him as soon as
I got here.
But he hasn’t.
I wonder how he’s getting along, and
if he misses me any. But, of course,
he doesn’t do that. If I was a star,
now—!

SUMMER DRINKS
There is nothing in the line of food
that will take the place of refreshing
drinks to a
parched throat.

ale and a syphon
of carbonated wa
ter are kept in the ice box, with the
raspberry and grape juice prepared last
season, supplemented with lemons and
other delicious fruit juices, one need
never have the same drink twice dur
ing the hot days.
Often a given formula well liked by
the one who passes it on lacks some
thing that one’s taste and that of her
family needs to supply. If one is care
ful to write down just the proportions
of a drink that just suits, and always
uses them correctly, the drink will al
ways be satisfactory.
Old-Fashioned Ginger Water.—This
Is the drink used in the fields in the
early days, when the Pilgrim fathers
were harvesting their wheat. Take
one heaping tablespoonful of ginger;
mix with one-half cupful of sugar; add
one tablespoonful of lemon juice or
vinegar and three pints of chilled wa
ter. Stir well and serve very cold.
Fruit Punch.—Boil together for ten
minutes three cupfuls of sugar and two
cupfuls of water with the rind of.one
lemon and one orange. Strain and,
while hot, add one glass of currant
Jelly. Set on Ice and, when ready to
serve, add the juice of nine lemons,
five oranges and one cupful each of
cherries and shredded pineapple. Pour
into a punch bowl; add ice and water,
adding charged water, a pint at a time,
to give it a zest.
Orange Pekoe Punch.—Make five
cupfuls of orange pekoe infusion, using
three teaspoonfuls of the tea. Boil
one cupful of water and two cupfuls of
sugar for five minutes; when cool, add
the juice of seven lemons, two oranges,
and set on Ice until ready to serv 3 . To
the tea infusion add plenty of ice and
pour into the punch bowl; add the
fruit juices, the sugar sirup and one
cupful of crystallized cherries, one cup
ful of shredded pineapple, a few sliced
strawberries or a few slices of orange.
Add more water, if needed, with a lit
tle more sugar.
Strawberry and Pineapple Nectar.—
Take one pint of pineapple juice, four
tablespoonfuls of lemon juice and one
pint of crushed strawberries. Combine
the juice and serve In glasses filled
with crushed ice. Each glass may be
garnished with a perfect berry.

SOUR CREAM AND MILK DISHES
On the farm there is usually a sup
ply of sour cream and the right use
of this delicious food
should be studied, for
there are countless ways
of using it in the prep
aration of other food.
As the acidity of milk
differs it is hard to give
the proportions of soda
to use to equalize it.
However, one-half tea
spoonful to one cupful of milk or
cream is considered sufficient.
Quick Cream Cookies.—Take one
cupful of sour crqam, one cupful of
sugar, one egg, two and one-lialf cup
fuls of flour, one-half teaspoonful of
soda and one teaspoonful of baking
powder sifted with the flour. The soda
may be stirred into the milk. Add
salt and nutmeg for flavoring and
drop by spoonfuls on a well-greased
baking sheet. Sprinkle with sugar,
add one-half a nutmeat and bake In
a quick oven.
Sour Cream Pie.—Take one cupful
of sour cream, two-thirds of a cupful
of sweet milk, one-halt cupful of
chopped raisins, one tablespoonful of
lemon juice, one tablespoonful of
flour, one teaspoonful of einuamon,
the yolks of two eggs and a little salt.
Bake In one crus" and use the whites
for a meringue.
Graham Gems.—Beat one egg. add
one cupful of sour milk and one cup
ful of graham flour, salt and soda,
one-half teaspoonful each. AVhen
well mixed add two tablespoonfuls of
melted butter and bake in a quick
oven in gem pans.
Salad Dressing.—Beat the yolks of
two eggs until light, stir in gradually
one-half cupful of thick sour cream,
add one-half teaspoonful of salt, a
dash of pepper, two tablespoonfuls of
tarragon vinegar nnd the well-beaten
whites of two eggs.
Sweet Potato Pie.—Take one cupful
each of sour cream and sugar, one
pint of mashed sweet potato, the
yolks of four eggs, one teaspoonful
of cinnamon, one-half a nutmeg and
salt to taste. Bake In one crust and
spread while hot with strained honey.
A meringue may he placed over It If
preferred; the latter will not be so

RASPBERRY VINEGAR IS SUPERIOR
FOR MANY SALADS AND BEVERAGES
GIRLS
LOOK HERE
in Salads and Other Table Delicaciso tne Raspberry Flavor Will Be Found
Very Agreeable.
(Prepared by the United States Department
o£ Agriculture.)
An excellent vinegar may be made
from raspberries which will retain in
definitely the odor and flavor if proper
ly preserved. Experiments carried out
in the bureau of chemistry of the
United States Department of Agricul
ture, have shown that this delicious
vinegar can be made in the home when
the garden affords a liberal supply
of this fruit.
Vinegar made from raspberries is
dark in color. Samples made in the
bureau of chemistry and properly
bottled were found after three years
to have retained not only the original
degree of acidity but the odor and
flavor. In salads and other table delica
cies the raspberry flavor is very agree
able. A refreshing hot-weather drink
can be prepared by adding a small
amount of this vinegar to water, and
icing and sweetening to taste.
How to Make Vinegar.
Two fermentations, the alcoholic and
the acetic, are necessary in making
vinegar. The method is as follows:
Use ordinary straight-sided open-
topped stone jars as receptacles. AVith
the aid of a potato masher, mash up
eight quarts of good, ripe raspberries
of either the red or black variety. Stir
thoroughly into this mash one-half
cake of compressed yeast which has
first been macerated In a small amount
of the juice. Let jar stand In a warm
place (about 75 degrees F.) and keep
covered either with lid or with cheese
cloth to protect from insects. Stir well
every day. Aljout one week Is re
quired to complete the alcoholic fer
mentation. The time needed to
utilize the sugar In the berries com
pletely may be determined by one of
two methods: (1) AYeigh the jar care
fully each day and record the weight;
when loss of weight ceases, the fer
mentation is complete; (2) test some
of the juice with a Brix or Balling
hydrometer. The reading of a juice
suitable for making a satisfactory
vinegar should not be less than 10.
As the fermentation proceeds, this will
decrease daily until it is not more
than 1 or 2, which indicates that the
sugar has practically all been utilized.
Action of Yeast.
The action of the yeasts on the
cells makes it easy to separate the
juice from the berries, squeezing It by
hand through cheesecloth. The juice
Is then returned to the jar; and, to
insure a proper acetic fermentation,
a small amount of vinegar should be
added as a starter. Aa unpasteurized
vinegar is best for this purpose, but If
this Is not at haud, use any good
vinegar in the proportion of 1 part to
4 of the fermented juice. Cover as be
fore and allow to stand without agita
tion in a warm place. A scum or
film will soon form. This should not
me disturbed.
The acetic fermentation sometimes
takes place very rapidly where berries
are used. The acidity should be de
termined daily by withdrawing a
small amount of the vinegar by means
of suction through a pipette or glass
tube and submitting it to a test by the
use of a vinegar tester, or in the
absence of this, determining by the
taste when it is sufficiently acid. As
soon as the vinegar reaches a proper
degree of acidity (It should contain 4
per cent acetic acid), the fermenting
process should be stopped. This is
done by first filtering through paper
or filtering-cloth, and bottling. Bottles
should be well filled and sealed tight
ly with paraffined corks.

“Just what the rest of the
