Newspaper Page TextIdea Worked! Wise mothers find the things that keep children contented, well, happy. Most of them have found they can depend on one thing to restore a youngster’s good nature when he’s cross, fretful, upset. The experience of Mrs. Win. Charleston, 003 Gilmore Ave., Kan¬ sas City, Kans., Is typical. She says: “I have used California Fig Syrup with Annie and Billy all their lives. Whenever they're constipated or bilious It has them comfortable, happy. In a jiffy. Their wonderful condition proves my idea works.” Physicians endorse the use of puro vegetable California Fig Syrup when bad breath, coated tongue, dullness, feverishness, llstlessness, etc., show a child’s bowels need help. Weak stomach and bowels are toned by It; a child’s appetite and digestion are Improved. The genuine always bears the name California for your protection.

THE STORY Returning to London, practical¬ ly penniless, after an unaucceBgful business trip, Sir Georg* Sandlaon takes dinner with his widowed stepmother, his old nurse, "Aggy." H* did not approve of her mar¬ riage to hi* father, but her ex¬ planation satisfies him. Little Is left of the estate, and L*dy San¬ dlaon proposes that they go to the United States to visit her broth¬ er. Robert MacBeth, wealthy con¬ tractor. Sir George agrees. Mao Beth lives on an Island estate with hla daughter, Roberta, who longs for city life. MacBeth Is a victim of arthritis and almost helpless. MacBeth Is glad to see his sister and ask* the two to stay Roberta Is keeping a date with Jack Na¬ varro, about whom she knows lit¬ tle. MacBeth arranges for hi* sle ter to take charge of the house¬ hold and Georg* to act aa secre¬ tary. Roberta does not approve of tbs arrangement. CHAPTER IV Her father had automatically cut »ff the greater part of Roberta's al¬ lowance, when her aunt became house¬ keeper. Roberta had had a stormy Interview, In which her father had told her that as she was not willing for housekeeping. He had explained to keep house she would not be paid to her, in his business voice which was calm and devoid of any feeling whatever, that Lady Sandlson had offered to do without payment, but that of course he would not permit. “I recognize,” he said, “that It Is a Job to run a big house. I recognized It when you tried It. That’s why I In¬ creased your allowance, and that’s why I reduce It no*.’’ “Tried 1” Roberta flashed out pas¬ sionately. “I did It.” "After a fashion,” her father told her. “but you dldn'f put your mind on It. You disliked it and you didn’t do It very Well. Witness jfour pulling out yesterday, and leaving a crippled man alone without a servant to attend to him, or to the unexpected guests who arrived.” “Guests should not come uninvited and unexpected all the way from bon nle Scotland,” said Roberta flippantly. “Neither sho.uld relatives come without warning. Lady Sandlson took that chance when she came here dragging Little Beauty with her.” “You don't like him, do you?” asked her father, Ignoring the rest of her speech. "I haven’t bothered my head about him,” Roberta told him angrily. “He's your guest, or employee, not mine.” “Just so. Well, he's not to be made to feel himself In the way.” Roberta opened her eyes. “I mean what I say,” Rob MacBeth went on, still using his business man ner and voice. “He’s valuable to me. I like him, and as he’s a young man he’s to be paid some attention by younger member of my family. I mean by that you are to see that he Is properly Introduced to any young people who come, If I'm not here. I'm not asking you to sacrifice your¬ self or do anything that might you.” “I won’t," Roberta promised him with vehemence. Her father held back the things he would have liked to say to her, went one step farther along In his campaign to bring Roberta to her senses. “Since yon don’t care for house¬ keeping, Roberta, and I must pay a housekeeper, have you thought of any¬ thing you would care to study?” Roberta gave him a prolonged before she answered. “Study? I’ve left school.” Her father nodded. “Still you like hanging around Idle, will you?” Roberta opened her mouth spoke, as Is the habit of the generation, without thought and heat, forgetting how wary are middle-aged people 1 — how quick to ceive and use any loophole given “I don’t know what I want. Except to get away from this place.” "Girls who don’t know what want are dangerous animals to loose in strange surroundings. When you know what you want come to and we’ll talk It over. Happiness, the way, comes from within.” She hated him for his reasonable¬ ness. Looking at her his face “There was a time. Roberta, when you would have come'to me and It over.” It was tnje. To her, as a child, father had been some one great powerful, whose coming meant and fun, circuses, party clothes treats Innumerable. To be with father, to wall; beside him, silent chattering as his mood permitted, travel with him. to go to his rod see him monarch of all; to qiede much of and to be admired klv and his friends,’ was aa CLEVELAND COURIER. heaven as- this earth contd give to Robert MacBetJi’s little daughter. It was different now. Now she wanted to arrange her own life, be happy in tier owp way, and here her father, once her greatest ally, to whom she ran for advice and suggestions, was decidedly in the way. "Don’t you feet like going over your plans with me?” Her father had been studying her downcast face. She shook her head. She was op¬ pressed with a desire to climb into his lap, to put her head against his shoulder as she used to do, but she would not yield to It. So across the gulf of the years-that separated them, they looked at each other helplessly. Helplessness being a state that Rob¬ ert MacBeth was unaccustomed to and declined to accept, . he said per¬ emptorily: “Well, when you want me I’m here, my girl, and meantime what shall we do to make your aunt's visit pleasant?" “I think you can manage that be¬ tween you without my help,” snapped Roberta. “Just as you like. 1 thought It might amuse you to engineer It. Sir George will be a bit of a sensation here, don’t you think?” “I don’t know. He doesn't Interest me In the least.” Her father's face expressed a not too polite Incredulity. “Since when?” he asked. “Since I first saw him.” “Why?” “Oh, I don’t know. He’s good-look¬ ing enough but he has no—” she felt He Waited, but Roberta Did Nothing but Blow Stno^p Rings, her father’s amused eyes upon her and 5 blurted It “no*sex appeal. 1 * f out, Her father shouted with Igughter and, mortified, Roberta withdrew. She had seen Sir George coming from the library as she fled to the summer house, while her father still roared with delight over her last speech. Would he tell Sir George? Roberta's face burned. * • * * * * * It was little less than marvelous how Lady Sandlson took hold of the housekeeping. Roberta, anticipating the terrible awakening her aunt would have when she encountered the usual American housekeeping difficulties, had so fur beeu disappointed. Lady Sandh son kuew, none better, how house¬ work should be done, and she saw that It was done Id Just that way. She knew that in Roberta she had an enemy rather than an ally. There¬ fore she asked her brother, casually, how much his household bills amounted to on an average and being told, and shown the bills for the last few months, she had Interviewed the new cook, stated the limit within which the bills were to be kept, promised her a bonus for any saving, and wiped that worry from her mind. She knew she had an ally In the new cook now, had made a possible saving for her brother's purse, and later, when she knew more, she could be more drastic. Lady Sandisou, like most Scots of her class, was careful rather than mean, aad provided well for both family and servants. She was busy working out her plang, and adjusting herself to this vastly different life, with Its vastly different needs, that she found herself plunged Into. She was likewise very much concerned about her brother. R was her opinion that Rob was far too young a man to be crippled In thi§. manner and she waa planning ah en¬ ergetic campaign In which she meant to enlist the doctor, to get Rob to take a holiday far from domestic and office worries. But Rob would be hard to move and Roberta promised to be a barrier to any plan that took him from home just now. Sunshine flooded the terrace, his island was steeped In beauty, yet Doughboy Meant Well, but French Was Weak After the American doughboy had been In France for a few months he picked up a few words of the lan¬ guage, and with admirable confidence begad conversations with the Freneb people that are remembered to this day as examples of how French ought not to be spoken. 1 After they had returned from the Luneville "sector a soldier of the First division, billeted' along the canal be¬ low Bar le Due. saw the cow belong¬ ing to his landlady escape from a Reid and start up the road. He rushed into the house, and in his best French told her what had happened. She filled to understand and the rervices Robert MacBeth shoox nls head as he spoke to his^sister: “It wgs a,mistake to tell Roberta your title." would have been a bigger mis¬ take to make a secret of It,” said his sister, “and Roberta's no easily fooled. If you had tricked her she would have been jufet wild. She’s red-headed.” “I don’t recognize her at ail,” said Roberta’s Irritated father. “Six months ago when she left school, you wouldn’t havp wanted to know a sweeter or better mannered girl.” “Who’s the man?” Robert glanced at his sister. “You’re daft, Aggy ! She’s a mere child. She’s popular enough with the boys, but there’s no man. At least there’s no one In particular, that I know of.” "It’s the one you don’t know that counts. She has something up her Bieeve. What is It?" Robert MacBeth shook his head. “She hates the Island," he admitted reluctantly. Aggy looked-about her and signed. “It’s a bonnie place. But you never can tell about young people.” There was a pause. “Was there nothing Roberta ever asked you to let her do, Rob, and you refused7" He shook his head. “Not any one particular thing. I think she had an idea she’d like to go abroad, but I thought that would come later. Any¬ way she hasn't made any clamor about It." Aggy nodded her head. "Well, It will break out somewhere, and where yon least expect It. I wish she'd fill the house with young folks. I'd like fine to see her amused.” “I'll give a party for you and Sir George. That’ll stir up things uTaybe.” “Maybe,” agreed Aggy and sighed. “I wish she liked me.” Rob sighed, too. “It’s strange the two women I like best will neither of them like each other.” “I like her fine,” declared Aggy. “It’s me she cannot thole. She’s under a good deal of strain, Rob. I wouldn’t give this party unless she wants it You’re likely to have her make it a terrible failure If you give It before ahe'a agreeable.” “I wish I knew what to do.” said Roberta’# father. “I know this Is only a temporary phase of Roberta’s char¬ acter we’re seeing now, but I don’t like It. It gives an entirely wrong view of Roberta. When she Is nice —is herself, I mean—no girl could be sweeter." “I take your word for It,” said Lady Sandlson. ******* The doorway of the summer house darkened but Roberta did not look up. beg pardon.” Sir George said softly. “Sorry to disturb you.” * “Bin not -disturbed.” Roberta told yuMVAr..«. perceived her error In so doing.

If Roberta could only have guessed It be too waa disappointed in the Island. It was beautiful, It was peaceful, but he might as well be In Sandlsbrae fur all the excitement he was likely to find. Save for American slang and American manners and this girl’s studied rudeness, life was as smooth as a mill pond. • "Smoke?" he asked and offered a Cigarette. “Father doesn’t approve.” “Oh, well,” Sir George said easily, “fathers have to have some prejudices, but I must say your old lad is re¬ markably free from them. Seldom met one more open-minded.” “Yes?" "Jolly good sort. If you ask me.” “I didn’t.” “What? Oh, yes, quite so," Sir George smiled. She was a pretty thing, this red headed girl, even If she was a trifle brusque. “Well, then, I volunteer the remark." He waited, but Roberta did nothing but blow smoke rings. The middle aged might he a puzzle to her but she flattered herself that she knew her own generation. This young man had come out to make himself agreeable. Well, he would be left to do It all by himself. But she had mistaken her young man. He looked .off over the river and then back at her. "Got something rather awkwiq-d to say to you,” he ad¬ vised. “Fact. Is there's a young man on the mainland been trying to attract your attention for some twenty minutes.” “Where Is he?” Roberta asked, her face stiff and roasklike. To her utter chagrin she felt it stiffen. It must ba Jack. Why did he make a fool of him¬ self by coming here and not coming to the house openly? “Over beyond the bridge on the road.
