“DICKYBIRD” REFUSES.
‘ HE soprano voice and its con-
T tralto companion who had been
discussing Lilllan Gale, Dieky
fnd me so freely and cynieally, rus
ted oput the dressing room, leaving
me sbsolutely stunned I felt sud
denly faint, and the room appeared to
Whirlt around me. The maid touched
e on the arm.,
“Are vou ill, madame? Here!” and
she held a glass of water to my lips.
I drank part of it and motioned her
away.
“I'l be all right in a moment,” |
murmured. “Thank you, but I am
quirte well.” |
So this was what marriage wnul‘li
mean to me, a contest with anothet
woman for my husband's love! A'
flerce anger took possession of me.
One moment 1 regretted my marriage
to Dicky, the next 1 was fiercely
primitive as any savage woman in
my desire to crush my rival. 1 could
have strangled Lillian Gale in :hull
moment. Then common sense came
back to me. What was it that woman
had said? 1 had all the best cards In
my hand? Well! I would play them.
1 felt gure that Dicky loved me. 1
would not jeopardize that love for a
temporary pride. 1 would ellminate
Idllian Gale from Dicky's life, but I
would bide my time to do it,
Fortunately my mending had been
practically finished when I heard
Dicky's name. 1 took the final
stitches, tipped the mald as | returned
her sewing things, and turning to the
mirror, rubbed my cheek flercely with
A towel to restore their color. The
maid offered me rogue, but I waved
her away impatiently. Thank heaven
T did not need to fight Lillian Gale
Wwith cosmetics as yet.
I met Dicky outside the door of the
‘walting room with a smile. We re
“fhaod to our seats as the curtain
was rising on the third act. I saw
little either of the act or the ex
duisite last one. One Itme did grip
me, however. Professor Jogram was
‘expostulating with Bir Jasper over
his determination to take Dolly away
%hu youthful lover, and in the
QQM"' of his argument said: “Twenty

years from now, you won't be able to
remember her name.” 1 «rimly made
up my mind that if any name were
forgotten in twenty years it would be
Lilllan not Margaret. My plan of ac
tion was complete,
] The final curtain fell upon the
cameolike picture of the nonogenarian
vho lecalls his memories, and gather
ing my closk around me with some
thing of the same feeling that a sol
dier of old must have had when he
buckled his armor, I followed Dicky to
the lobby, where we found Mr. and
Mre. Underwood,
“You're to come to supper with us,"
#he cried, “just us four. 1 want to be
the first of the crowd to toast your
bride, Dickybird, You'll come, won't
you! BShe looked at me,
“I would love to,” I replied, smiling
at her cordially. “Dicky, we may go,
may we not? ‘
Was it fancy or did I gee the shade
of disappointment on Lilllan Gale's
face at my reception of her lnvlu-l
tion. She turned to Dicky. |
“That's settled, then, Harry, I'n ba;
generous, and let you talk to Mrs,
Graham. 1 know you're just dying to.
Come, Dicky,” and she laid her hflndi
on his arm. |
“Nothing doing tonight, LiL” Dick's
tone was laughing, but final, “I'm
awfully sorry, Madge, but if 1 don't!
get to work early tomorrow on t.hgtl
cover these sketches will do me no
good. I must work while they're fresh
in my mind. I know what your par
ties are, Lil, till daylight doth appear
and all the rest of it. Some other(
time, and soon, but not tonight.”
He patted the hand which lay on
his arm with an exaggerated little
gesture, then placed it on her hus
band's coat sleeve,
“Take her, my boy,” he burle.qued.‘
“and be happy. Good night,” and be
fore I could recover my breath at the
unexpected turn of things we were in
the taxi, rolling homeward. |
“Did you mind very much about the
supper, sweetheart?’ asked Dicky,
drawing me close to him, |
“Not very much,” 1 answered de
murely, nestling closer,
But my heart was singing!
(Continued Tomorrow.)
She was about to fly away when Mr.
Black Ant stopped her,
"Wait a second!” he cried. He dis
appeared in his house, soon returning
with an umbrella under his arm. “You'd
better take this with you." |
“Oh, dear no!" laughed Lady l"l)'.{
“I'm not afraid of a little sunshine. ln‘
fact, that's why 1 decided to g 0 out -
it's such a beautiful day.”
“Beautiful now,” replied Old Black
Ant, “but by the time you're ready to
start home you'll find it raining.”
“Just like you old folks,” buzzed Lady
Fly, “always foretelling the weather by
the way you feel.”
“l may be an old ant, Lady Fly, but
I've nothing the matter with me,” cried

“Oh, Dear, No!"
Mr. Black Ant softly. ‘““Whenever 1 see
the sorrel or the clover plants drooping
their leaves 1 know it's going to rain
before the day's over”
Lady Fly laughed and flew away
leaving Old Black Ant wagging his head
sorrowfully as he went back into his
house,
Lady Fly went buzzing merrily, chat
ting with every one she met on her way.
She stopped to visit all the meadow
folks and had a jolly day of it; but just
as she durned to start back she found
the wind had changed and the beautiful
sunny sky was shrouded in dark clouds
The wind was 8o strong Lady Fly had
to give up trying to iy, She dropped to
the ground and crawled under a clover
leaf to walt until the storm was over.
Here she found Miss Lady Bug and
told her all her troubles,
“Old Black Ant warned me and even
offered me his umbrella, but 1 thought
it was just one of his whims and made
fun_of him,” she told Lady Bug
“Well, he was right when he said you
could tell whether it was going to rain
or not by the clover and sorrel plants,”™
sighed Lady Bug. *‘ll never venture far
from home without first consulting them
to find out what kind of weather it's
going to be, and never yet have they
told me an untruth."
“And they really do turn up their
leaves before a storm?” u.\kms Lady
Fly
- "The clovers turn their leaves up.”
replied Lady Bug, “but the sorrel droops
hers.”
Lady Fly walted until the storm had
passed, then she hurried home, first
stopping at Old Black Ant's door to say
she was sorry she hadn't heeded his
- warning.
.~ From that time on the woodland folks
called the clovers and sorrels Lady

By VIRGINIA TERHUNE VAN
DE WATER. |
(Copyright, 1919, Star Company.)
’ CHA‘PTER LXXII, |
| ONORA usually prided herself
upon her excellent physique, but
‘ when she awoke on the morn
ing after her trip to Hartford she
was aware that in the last 24 hours
she had taxed her powers of en
durance to the utmost.
It had been almost dawn when she
fell asleep. At 7 o'clock she lifted
her head from the pillow, and a sense
of giddiness and wealkness compelled
her™to lie down again.
When Mildred learned what the
trouble was she advised her sister to
stay aw# from the office.
“I will telephone to Mr, Pearson
and explain that you are not well,”
she said. 1 am sorry you overdid
yourself yesterday, but it's only an
other of the many things to make me
uncomfortable. Life isn't worth liv
ing, anyway.”
Honora felt too ill to argue. More
over she knew that Mildred's morbid
moods were of short duration. Had
she been a different type of girl she
would have been prostrated by the
events of yesterday. As it was, her
quiet slumber through the night had
been abundant evidence that her
heart was not broken nor her nerves
seriously strained.
Secretly, Honora was rather glad
to escape the ordeal of breakfast with
her sister and Mrs. Higgins this
morning. The situation would be an
awkward one, and her presence would
not lessen the discomfort of it.
She thanked Mildred for offering to
tel’e'Fhom- to Mr. Pearson.
“Tell him it is only a sick headache
and that I will be down this after
noon, If I am able, and explain how
sorry I am,” she murmured, for the
dizziness made her feel faint. \
Honora Protests. |
“I will tell him you are not fit to
be out,” Mildred declared. “You work
hard enough for him to give you an
occasional holiday.” ‘
“Oh,” Honora protested feebly, “he
is more than kind to me and is always
willing to let me have time off!” |
“Then let him prove it today,” was
the succinet suggestion. |
Mrs. Higgins persuaded Honora to
take a cup of tea and a slice of tuast.‘
then darkened the room and left her
alone. The tired girl slept soundly
until noon, when the "housekeeper re
appeared with a tray of luncheon.
“This food actually tates good,”
Honora remarked gratefully. “I feel
ever so much better. 1 shall get up
pretty soon."” .
“Mr. Peason telephoned at 11 o'clock
and said that you ware not to at
tempt to go to the office today,” Mrs,
‘Hiszlnl informed her charge. “So I

SISTER JANE (Continued).

there was a touch § SRR gl
of uneasiness in § 3 S
her manner, for at i A
that moment Klibs &
marched in, accom- ——
panied by Tommy Timkins. The baby
stationed himself by Sister Jane’'s knee
and stared solemnly at Jincy. “Oo dat,
Nanny Dane?’ he askéd.
“old Zip Coon!™ replied Jincy so sud
denly that Klibs retreated behind Sis
ter Jane’s chair and frem that coign
of vantage smiled serenely at the youn
man. Tommy Timkins, however, ha!
no share in Klib’s alarm or bashfulness.
He insisted on jumping to Jincy's knee
and was not satisfied even with that
demonstration of confidence, for he
reared himself to the lad's shoulder,
and rubbed against his chin and neck.
“He’s not that friendly with every
body that comes along, Jincy,” explain
ed Sister Jane. ‘‘That cat kpows a
thing or two.”
“Well'm, they're all mighty friendly
wi’ me,” remarked Jincy; ‘“cats, dogs,
cattle, hosses and all the wild creeturs,
specially the birds.”
“What about that mocking-bird
swinging on the cedar out there?’ I
asked. ”
. Jincy rose and glanced at him. “Why,
Heart Breaker
And he was in love with Mildred.
Don’t you think so?” ;
Honora turnea her head wearily on
the pillow and elosed her eyes.
“He seemed to be,” she said briefly.
“Well, 1 was wondering if he cares
for her still--I mean except as a
friend. 1 wonder if he loves her now?
1f SO, he must be very unhappy.”
She Thinks of Arthur.
The speaker looked inquiringly at
the face on the pillow. But the eyes
were closed and the kindly matron
decided to withdraw and let the girl
rest for a while longer. So, taking up
the tray, she tiptoed from the room.
But when she had gone Honora
opened her eyes and lay thinking of
Mrs. Higgins' surmises. Did Arthur
still lov€ Mildred? If so, he must
be very unhappy.
She recalled his bitter laugh in the
restaurant yesterday when Mildred
and Chandler passed him. It was not
a pleasant laugh; in it there was not
a sound that would indicate sorrow
or longing., Moreover, if Arthur had
loved Mildred, would he not have
thrashed Chandler when he saw him
in the hotel in Hartford? .
Then reason reminded her that had
he done this he would only have
dragged into light a scandal he and
Honora were trying to cover—would
have made Mildred’'s name the sub-
Jjeet of cruel notoriety.
No, his sparing Tom Chandler did

he's the same to me as if he was in a
cage,” ‘he replied. *“I can walk right
out and eall him to my hand.”
““He can so!" protested Mandy, see
ing me laugh as if the lad had made an
idle jest.
“The proof of the pudding is chewing
the bag,” remarked Sister Jana.
‘““That's so,” said Jincy, *‘and I'll show
you. Come out and see, but don't git
too close.”
So we adjourned to the garden. Jiney
went near the tree and gave a whistling
chirrup. The bird was so startled by
the unexpectedness of the call that it
flew to the top of the cedar, swung
there a moment, giving forth the *‘chuh’’
cry that stands for anger, alarm and
surprise, and then flew wildly to the
top of the big china tree on the side
walk. Again Jincy gave his whhl::znz
call, and the bird came fluttering K,
this time making ak if it would light
on his hat, but flying away again. Once
more the whistling call sounded, and
the bird fluttered around and over Jin
cy's head in the most peculiar way.
“What's the matter with you?"’ cried
Jiney impatiently, Then his eyes fell
on Tommy Tin'gns, who was crouch
ing at his feet and watching every mo
tion of the bird with eager eyes and
trembling jaws. “Shucks! it's the cat!”
Jincy said. “I know'd somethin’ was
wrong."”
1 enjoyed the spectacle immensely and
treasured the incident in my mind. It
gave me a new and higher opinion of
Jincy. He begged to be excused from
returning into the house, on the ground
that he didn’t want to wear his welcome
out, So we begged him to call agan
whenever he felt in the humor, and he
went away ageir formally shaking hands
with each one, even the baby.

not mean that he did not love Mil
dred.
Then why did Honora believe that
he had ceased to care for his former
flancee ?
The warm blood crept to her face
as she looked at matters honestly, for
the strongest proof she had that Ar
thur Bruce no longer cared for Mil
dred was the expression in his eyes
last evening as he sald good-night to
Mildred’s sister,
He had never looked at Homora
like that before, and even now she
seemed to feel the warmth of his
handeclasp.
She fell asleep again, with a smile
of happiness on her lips.
It was late in the aftermoon and
she was just getting up to dress for
dinner when Mrs. Higgins came hur
riedly into the room—just as she had
come 24 uours ago. And, as then,
she held a newspaper in her hand.
“My dear!” she exclaimed, “here's
something more about that young
Chandler!
“It segms he went back to eamp
early this morning, and in ecleaning
his gun he somehow shot himself ac
cidentally right through the breast,
They think he is going to die. Dear,
dear! What dreadful things are hap
pening these days!”
