You should certainly offer to take the
young girl to the dance and bring her home
again. Furthermore, you should bold your
self In readiness during th evening to Join
her at any time you may notice that site
has no partner or that she has been with
one man for more than one or two dances,
as she may not care to stay too long with
one person, and you should ask her to dance
several times during the evening, even If
she Is always surrounded by partnera
A tazl or carriage Is not necessary. If you
can reach your destination easily without
much walking, although If the affair Is a
ball and lasts very long It Is better to taks
her home In one. Many of these things de

MY MARRIED LIFE
By ADELE GARRISON
The Purr of a Cat and the Sympathy of a Servant
I DO not know how long I sat looking
dumbly at the shattered pieces cf wlass.
all that was left ot my treasured vase. I
was stunned at the storm of anger In
Dlclcy which I had aroused by my ulti
matum on our household finances, and my
determination to earn soms money of my
own.
It seemed ages before I stirred Then I
bent to pick up the pieces of glses At my
movement, thi kitchen door opened swiftly
and Katie rushed In. I had a sudden sick
knowledge that she had been listening and
looking during Dicky's outburst.
"Oh, poor Missis Graham." she crooned,
coming over r mc and putting her arms
nround me. "You not feel bad for dot Dot
hotting for MeeMcr araham. Ho mean not
tlng. Many tme I see heem mad, he trow
tings on floor, neartat ting ho can get hands
on. Ono time he trow omelet he no like,
It go all over stut-u-a-ry, muke litem night
cap for head," Katie glgcloi remlnlscently.
"But he get over dot mad Joost as
quecck," sho ent on "nimeby you see ha
come back, ho say, 'Oh, I so sorry. I nevalre,
nevalre do eet again till next time " Ka
tie giggled again "You not feel bad. Man
llko dot If otl do not do et cry ting dey
nant, and If jou do nil times at dry want,
notlmes tat Jtu want, den dry tlnk you are
carpet, dey wipe feet on you."
Through n't my naturnl rhrlnklng from
sympathy of any kind, and my distaste of
having a senunt know nn thing of my af
fairs, the cotiscousncM of this girl's hearty,
sincere feeling soothed mc, while her
homely phllocuphy fitted In with my own
reflections.
Thank you, Kntle," I sjild. "Will you
kindly brush up these pieces before you
go 7"
She brought tho broom and dustpan,
gathered up the pieces, carried them to the
kitchen, returned and made a pretense of
straightening up tho Iltlhg room, changing
the position of seteral chalrn nnd arranging
tho books and magazines. Evidently she
had something on her mind. Finally she
came close to tre.
"Oh, say, Missis Ornhnm, I no like to
leave you here alone tonight BesldK I
scared go homo every night," A shrewd
look came Into her face. Sho hesitated for
n moment Heading her, I wondered what
kindly falieh:od she would Iment to coor
her desire to stay with me. I waited but a
moment
"A man hn splk to mo last night on the
street I scared and run. I frald he splk
to me tonight, too."
"How did the man look, Kaller I nsked,
half-smlllngly In spite of m heartache.
"Oh I a great beeg man, with beeg black
whiskers " Katie evidently was determined
to paint a sufficiently strong picture now
she had seized the brush, "llees eyes look
like dls at ire." Katie rounded her own.
I could see that she fancied herself an awe
Inspiring spectacle. "If he splk to mo to
night I shall Joost die, I know."
"Hut there Is no place for you to Bleep."
"Oh, yes, Mitel- Graham. You como with
me. I show you "
I followed her to the kitchen. She threw
open the door of tho unused closet I had
given her for her things.
"Hero," she said. "I sleep here "
THE MAID'B BKDItOOM
"Why, Katie I" I exclaimed. There Isn't
room here for a bed." And, Indeod, the clonet,
while a large one, holding our trunks, Becm
ed but a mere cubby hole for a sleeping
place. But as I looked at It I vaguely re
membered hearing the woman who had
rented the apartment speak of a maid's
bedroom. I had paid no attention to tho
phrase, for I had not then Intended to keep
a maid. Was this what she meant?
"Oh, yes. Missis Graham." carroled Katie
again, and stooping behind the trunks sho
brought forth a queer-looking Iron frame
work, which I had noticed, but. In my Ig
norance of housewifely ways, had neer
bothered to Investigate. Pulling It out. It
repealed Itself as a small, low bed, with
a. fairly clean mattress and pillow held In
Its Iron framework.
"See!" said Katie gleefully. "At night
I pull heem out so. He nice bed for me.
In morning I shut heem up so, he no In
way."
"Katie, do not say Tilm' when you speak
of things like beds, chairs, tables, dishes
Say 'It' or 'thenj'
"All right." TKswered Katie. 'Thank
you. I like to Bplk the English right. You
teach me I thank you. Ybu let me sleep
here, please? This Is such nice room Down
at my cousin's, lettle room like dls, me
and three children Bleep. I no like" She
spoke wistfully.
To think that this cubby-hole tieemed a
desirable sleeping room to anybody! Tho
picture of Katie and three children huddled
In one no larger decided me. I would let
her stay. Doubtless, her company might
often be welcome, I reflected grimly, if
Dicky and I kept up the pace we seemed to
be setting.
"Very well, Katie," I said at last "You
may stay if you will be ery careful to
throw open your window each day a long
tlm and air your bedding- morn wa
falr-slied window In the closet, or I should
neter have given my consent to her sleeping
there.
"Come with me, and I will give you linen
and a blanket"
TWO BYMPATHKTIC FntRNDS
"Oh. thank you, MlsIs Graham. I do
everything for you" Katie grasped my
hand and kissed It. her Invariable method of
showing gratitude.
As I handed here the sheets and pillow
case and the only extra blanket my lim
ited linen closet contained. I olcd a doubt
that had been In my mind since I gave my
consent to her staying.
"Are you sure you will be warm enough
tonight, Katie? I'll get you nn extra blan
ket or a comforter tomorrow."
"You get me nothing" Katie's olce wns
decided. "I plenty warm, If I cold I put
my poat over mo. Pretty soon It get spring,
got warm, no need blanket. You not spend
your money for dot."
The girl's t arm-hearted Interest waa a
balm tu my bruised sensibilities. I patted
her shoulder and spoke warmly.
"You are ery good to me, Katie. Thank
you Now go to bed ', that'a a good girl."
"You go to bed, too. You not sit up
worrying If you sit up I stay up, too."
Katie bobbed her head emphatically.
"I am going to bed rry soon, Katie.
It I need ou I will call you."
"All right," floated Katie's answer after
me as I returned to the living room. "I
wake easy You jutt call any time you
want me. I come quick."
I tut down before the grate, which I had
not yet turned out, I had a fleeting thought
of the Increased gas bill I would hae at
tho end of the month If It continued to burn,
but I was too numb to care about any
thing. The big Angora which Dicky had brought
me as his first "housekeeping present," nnd
over which we had had our first quarrel,
came and rubbed her lazy length against my
skirts Cats hao always been an aver
sion of mine, but since my determination to
make the best of Dicky's present I hma
tried hard to like the beast As she came
close to me I felt a friendly warm liking
for her, and, stooping, lifted her to my
Up, where she nestled down with a deep
purr of satisfaction.
How alono I was when the purr of a cat
and the sympathy of n servant were all tho
consolation I had In my misery!

Suggestions for the Guest Room
Till? Ideal guest room Is by no means tha
most luxurious or the most elaborate, but
It must reflect In every detail the thought
fulness of the hostess. One of the most
Inviting guest rooms I ever saw was, at
first glance, extremely simple In Its appoint
ments. It had neither lace bedspreads, silk
curtains nor costly furniture, but It looked
comfortable, You felt that you wanted to
stay In that room. When I had stayed In
It a few days I found out why.
Ths color acneme ot the room, which
had but one window and did not receive
much sun, was yellow and white. The
wall paper was white, with a small yel
low flower; yellow scrim curtains with
a deep hem nnd shirred alnnce hung at
the window The white enameled bed and
white enameled dressing tablo were cov
ered with the same pale yellow coverings.
There was a deep blue rag rug, with touches
ot yellow, on the floor, a blue-stslned big
wicker nrm chair, and a slender blue ase
on the dressing table held a single yellow
Jonquil.
However, It waa not only the tasteful
color scheme of the room that appealed to
the eye, but the Individual evidences ot

room This square table held ono or two
current mngaxlnes, a small drop light and
a llttlo white enameled tray bearing a
small glass carafe covered by a small glass
tumbler. About one foot oer the tablo was
hung a bookshelf built Into the right angles
of tho wall, and Just largo enough to con
tain a dozen books some volumes of short
stories, verses and plays.
At the foot of the bed was a small
CLj i
wooden rack tor a , -ultcase. on which
one could comfortably pack and unpack
without ths stooping and bending usually
necessary.
There were many other lilt e evidences
of thoughtfulness that I found In this com
fortable little guest chamber. Tucked In
tha top drawer of tho dressing table. In ad
dltlon to some toilet articles, was a small
pincushion bearing not only pins with var
ious colored tops and needles, but also
pinned to the cushion were several small
cards of thread black, white and brown.
