MOOnE herself was not at all alive to the nituntion, nml n yet Beatrice had not enlightened her. However, one evening when it' hap pened that thcro were no other men and Ruth hnd monopolized (irorge Kverett all evening, Hcatrice slipped Into her mother's room at hedtimc. Mrs. Moore turned from her dress ing table to find Beatrice standing in the middle of the room. She was sur prised, for her daughter was not given to sentiment and bedtime confidences as a rule. "What is it, dear?" "Mother, I wnnt to tell you something.'-1 Uentrire's voice was n queer mixture. There was a bewilderment in it, and not n little anger. "Mrs. Raymond is mnking Orace miserable." The two hnd sat down on the chaise longue at the foot of the bod, and Mrs. Moore opened her mch in amazement. "Ruth making Orace miserable? What are you talking about Beatrice?" she stoid almost iharnly. "I mean it, she is', t.rnre cried last night." "What about?" Beatrice wns laying the folds of her crepe de chine negligee in neat pleats, on her knee. Klie did not raise her ejes ns she answered. "About (Jeorge Kwrctt." It was al most defiant, that little sentence. Needless to say, Mrs. Moore was amazed. "(icorgo Ierctt?" she gasped. "Yes, mother: you needn't be o surprised. "You know (Jrace liked him awfully well, and he liked her, too, un til Mrs. Rn.Miioud came along." "Beatrice, what are ou saying?" "I menu it." lteatilcc persisted. "And if j on hndn't been s(1 blind nil along, jou would hnc noticed it, too." "Beatrice, I'm surprised at ml for talking like this. Do jou kjiow that jou are insinuating things about Ruth that are unpardonable in n hostess?" '0, I know jou think she's perfect, and I knew nil along jim'd take this attitude, but 1 think it's disgraceful, (ieorcc Kverett has loads of monej ; he's iust the man for (truce, and now llntli Ilnvmond bus spoiled it all.

VUiy cant joul understand?" "Beatrice, jou'ie absurd! I ought to spank jou, and what you say about Ruth is most unkind nnd unfnir." "But it isn't, (ieorge is rnu about her: he follows her around like n dog, and she encourages It." Mrs. Moor rose determinedly. "I never henrd such utter foolishness in my life. 1 want you to go light to bed and 6 forget everything thnt jou have been telling me. You lime made an unkind accusation about. Ruth and I jou promised me thnt you would try I to make her stay a pleasant one." "But she isn't anything like jou toldi me, mother. I thought she would be I grateful for nnj thing wc did; glad for' nny kind of a good time." "Ycm, you thought jou could lien I her like a poor lelation," Mrs. Moo observed tlrj ly. Beatrice Hushed. ".Mother, that's unfair!" , "Not so very. When jou found that she was young and pretty and a pos sible personage, jou were disap- j pointed." "Mother, aren't jou going to do I nnj thing about it?" Beatrice burst forth, impaticntlj ; "nren't jou?" i "About what?" I "About the way Mrs. Rajmond is ( monopolizing (leorge?" i "Of course I'm not. I think jou nre behaving childishly. Beatrice. In thej first place, I don't believe- a woid of it. and besides, if Oeorge is interested in Ruth, it is in a perfectly nice wnj. Ruth hnd Scott are devoted to each other." "I suppose jou haven't noticed that Mr. Rnjinond is quite interested in Dot Snlisburj," Beatrice said smooth ly "Of course jou wouldn't notice anything of that kind.

(iencrallj speaking, the housewives nnd mnldens, nnd, bless you! the men folks, too, gazed nt the picture last night with rapt attention, from the moment Mrs. Wilson deftly separated the yolks from the whites, till she broke the two finished Victory Sponge Cnkes to prove how airy and creamy the were inside. "Does that' nice Indj in the white kitchen lixo In n real house, mnina? Win. she's mnking supper!"

And mother ignored him to watch Mrs. Wilson cut nnd fold the dough over the snow beaten whites of the eggs. And with that (he cakes were baked. Out of the oven the came oventunllj.
