My first impulse was to hand it back then I thought better of it words do not como eas ily to him. So he expressed himself In currency. I put the money into my purso for a luck penns. Mrs. Francis is ns serene as a sum mer sea, and can look at you without knowing you aro there Mr. Fi'Uucls is a peaceful man, too. Ho looks at his wifo in a helpless way when sho begins to explain tho difference between the Ell7,abcthnn nnd tho Victoriau poets I don't believe ho cares a cent for cither of them. Mrs. Francis entertains quite a bit; I liko it, too, and I do not go and cry into the sink because I have to wait on tho guests. She entertains well and is n delightful hostess, but somo of the peoplo whom she entertains do not ap preciate her flights of fancy. I do not like to sen them wink nt each other, although I know it is funny to hear Mrs. Francis elaborate on the mother's influener in tho homo and the rropcr wny to deal with selfishness in children ; but iho means well, and they should remember that, no matter how funny sho gets.

Well, It hadn't very much to do with tbo domestic help problem, but of course I could not tell her that, bo when she asked me what I thought o? it I s-ald : "If all employers were as kind ns you and Mr. Francis there would be no do mestic help problem." Sho looked ut mo suddenly, and some thing seemed to strike her. I believe it came to her that I was u creature of like possibns with herself, capable of gratitude, perhaps in need of encour agement. Hitherto 1 think she lias re garded mo as a porridge and coffee machine. She put her nrm around rac and kissed rue. "Camilla," she said gently sho has tho softest, dreamiest voice I ever heard "I believe iu the aristocracy of brains and virtue. You have both." Farewell, oh Soulless Corporation!
