There would be plenty of time ta
make the exchange, Evelyn reasoned
to herself, before the bill went in to
Laurie. The lawn party was the 19th,
and she could take the gown back and
make the change the following week.
He would be away until the 28th, any:
way, so there wasn't a ghost of @
chance he would ever find it out.
Yet she hesitated and went back to
look at the temptation several times
It hung on a model in the showrooms
upstairs at Allalre’'s, the sheerest,
daintiest hand-made lingerie gown in
peach-blow tint with a crush girdle of
deep-toned velvet and underslip of
satin. 2
She knew she could take her black
chiffon hat and make it look right,
and there would be a saving, for she
had planned on a hat, too, besides a
cheap little dress that would “get by"
at the lawn party.
The idea of the exchange had come
like a blessing. They had an account
at Allaire’s, one she had never over
stepped or presumed on, it had been
So precious in times of need. By tak
ing the peach-blow gown she could
wear it for two days, just to the lawn
party and for tea on the Wainwright's
terrace* Sunday afternoon. Then on
Monday she could go back to the store
and could exchange it for a sensible
blue serge suit that Laurle would ap
prove of, and this would tide her over
for early fall besides.
There were no alterations. She had
made sure of that, and she ordered
the gown sent homé over the tele
phone bravely. It came just before
dinner. Hugging the long white box
she ran upstairs to try 1t on and was
Just pluming herself before the mir
ror when there came the sound of
wheels outside on the graveled drive.
She held her breath for fear it
might be Laurie, but instead there
came a full-toned genial voice that
sent the color back to her cheeks. It
was Laurie’s Uncle Sandy, the sole
hope she possessed in the line of in
heritance.
Slipping out of the gown, she put
on a plain linen dress and hurried
to greet him., :
“Never mind if he is away,” Sandy
said when he heard of Laurie's ab
sence. “I'm going to stay a couple of
weeks with you. The air up here al
ways does me good, and I like yout
cooking, Evelyn. Don’t notice me a
bit. I'm going to get an axe and cut
some wood for you to tone myself up
A bt
It had been her very first social in
dulgence since their honeymoon, and
every minute at the lawn party
seemed happier than the last., She
knew people were looking at her and
asking about her who had never been
aware of her existence before, and
later on Mrs. Wainwright compliment
ed her as they sat over their coffee
after dinner.
“You always seemed like such a lit
tle brown wren,” she laughed. “l
didn’t know you cared for pretty
things.”
Alice returned home Sunday night,
and Monday morning, while Uncle
Sandy was safely out of earshot, she
called up Allaire’s, and asked them
kindly to call for the gown, as she
had decided to exchange it for a suit,
“No exchanges on that, Mrs. Buell,”
said the clerk. “I'm sorry. It was a
special model.”
She hung up the receiver in a daze
of consternation. No exchanges, and
she had a $65 charge, with only a lit
tle perishable lingerie gown to show
for it. Before she knew it she had
laid her head on the mahogony hall
stand and was sohbing miserably. It
had been so perfectly senseless and
reckless of her, just a piece of child
ish vanity to appear in the gown when
she knew she couldn’t afford it. And
she did need a suit badly. So did
Laurie need a suit, and there was the
interest to meet and taxes., She heard
Unele Sandy’s cough before she knew
he was standing staring at her.
“Well, girl, did you get bad news?”
he nsked cheerily. “Mustn’t take on
like that? Is it anything happened to
Laurie?”
“Uncle Sandy,” she said desperately,
“I've done something terrible, and I'm
afraid Laurie won’t forgive me.”
Brol.enly she went on explaining while
the old Scotchman listened, his eyes
keen and humorous. “You see, it s
the deceit that he will despise me for,”
she cried. “And I deserve it, too, for
bemng so silly.”
“No you do,” he agreed. “But it was
a mighty neat-looking frock. I thought
so myself when I saw you walk out in
it, and I was proud of you, and Laurie
would have been, too.”
“But we can’t possibly afford it
Uncle Sandy!”
“No, you can’t, but you'll have to,”
he s#id firmly. “I'm not going to give
you a check, elther, to help you out,
You'd best wear it and do without the
suity but T'll help Laurie so he doesn’t
feel the loss of it.”
“And I will have to tell him?”
Evelyn begged. “It might break down
all the love and faith between us.”
“Tell him,” he said kindly. He'll
love and trust you the more for it.,”
He wrote the check slowly, and then
patted her shoulder as the tears rolled
down her cheeks.
“Twas @ bonny frock,” he sald
gently. “Run put it on for Laurie.
He just ’phoned from the station. 1
dont’ believe in coercing any judge,
but you can persuade them somes
times,” e :

Summer Spraying
The summer sprays are the ones
that control rotten and wormy fruit.
The so-called “‘first summer spray”
should be put on at once. For the
berefit of the fruit this is the most
important of all the sprays. If only’
one spraying is to be made, the re
sults ‘will be better from this than
any other one spraying.
For the first summer spray for
peaches use self-boiled lime-sulphur
with one pound of powdered arsenate
of lead added to each 50 gallons of
the spray. The self-boiled lime-sul
pher is to control rot and the arsen
ate of lead to control worms. The
‘spray should be applied just as soon
as most of the brown shucks have
shed from the small peaches. Use a
good pump and maintain a high pres
sue that will produce a very fine mist
which adheres to foliage and fruit
much better, and jless material is
wasted. ‘
Apples should be given the “first
summer spray’” just as soon as most
of the main bloom is shed. Use 1 1-2
to 2 pounds of dry-lime sulphur with
1 pound of powdered arsenate of
lead added to 50 gallons of water.
Spray the young apples, don’t bother
with the foliage.
For the second summer spraying,
use the same sprays as before. Give
both apples and peaches second sum
mer spray 2 to 3 weeks after the
first summer spray. If the weather
is rainey wait 2 weeks, if it is fairly
dry wait 3 weeks.
Self-boiled lime-sulphur is made as
follows: Place 10 pounds of fresh
burned builders lime, in a 50 gallon
barrel and start slacking with enough
hot water to cover it well. Add 8
pounds of Flowers of Sulphur and al
low it to cook itself for five minutes.
Then stop all action by adding enough
water to make 50 gallons. Add one
pound of arsenate of lead. Make
arsenate of lead into paste and work
out all bumps before adding. This
spray if properly put on will control
rotten and wormy fruit.
