Hy A. nOKDUN STKVKNS
When 1 ienrd that I was one of the

Aunt, she wns not likely to lenvo any

to withdraw. .
"With all respect to the depnrted." I

But ns the worm rraircd forward to
grnh them a yellow cloud darkened tho
forest nbove their heads. Iiey looked
up in fear, but saw it was' only the
dandelion flower.
"Cling to my petals." whispered the
dandelion-. "Cling to me tightly."
Hilly and Peggy gl-asped light hold
of the yellow petnln of the dandelion,
nnd they fe!t themselves lifted out of the
dense nnd tangled foret. And not n
bit too soon, for the bend of the worm
was swnyiug hack nnd forth seeking

i ters. conversations, inventories, ciicom
I passed me, nil containing the words
I "rest nnd residue." They became n
dully menace mid n nightly hnunt. I
' wcnrled of my kind. .Mnn. I thought,
should be born nlone. nnd left to find his
wny to manhood by himself. Why
i must there nlwnys he those on iom he
must attend and others whom he must
. meet hnlf wny nnd traditionally obey?
Why must he listen just hci'im some
one spenks nnd tend because some onn
writes?
I Hut all this protest wns of no nvali,
for every fninily bonstn one diplomat
and ours is no exception, though 1 never
should have picked Aunt Agnes for tho
position. She twrtyfl snya Just what
Hie thinks, nsks for whnt she wants nnd
docs cxnetly ns she pleases. Are these
the qualities of n diplomat? Jet It
was she who brought thnt "rest and
residue' ' and mc together.

nrouso my suspicions. We agreed that
an empty house was no place for a
convalescent while dampness wns the
prevailing atmosphere.
There came one day so hot that all
pretenses ot cllmntc ns an. excuse were
of no avail. A desperate desire to get
it over with beet me, nnd when wo
drove nenr the homestend I hndn't tbe
cownrdlce to go by. Ho we went In.
View here In my room the results!
Queer things happened. I wnlked-nff it
seems with "kitchen utensils" left to
nnother when I went off with the big
copper kcttlo which makes such n line
wostebnskct. There Is n debate ns to
thc-elnssification of those mahogany bel
lows, started by the heir to tho fur
niture. The porrlngm' on the shelf must
hnve been divorced from Its kind by the
snme accident thnt gnve me the old
crane. A fireplace oven hides In the
closet, waiting for some Improbable
camping trip. All thnt 1 nm really sure
belongs to mo is the row qf school
books more thnn n century old. that lend
ntmosphcro to my bookshelf nnd nre too
faded to disclose their useless character
from a distance. The patchwork quits
drape my couch in ancient calico.
What did I lenve for the other heirs?
How should I know! I know los now
thnn I ever did licfore 1 played that
game of grab in a partly darkened
room nt the instigation" 6f mi relatives.
Hut the folks nre satisfied, if a little
envious, nnd nt last they let mc forget
the "rest and residue."

There's no hiding the added motor satisfaction you ex
perience with Atlantic Gasoline.
Every hill you take, every getaway you make, every start
of the motor brings to you the distinct consciousness that
you've Atlantic in the tank. The difference is pronounced!
lie know the extra quality possessed by Atlantic, because

the care taken in refining it.
You know by results: By the healthy, rhythmic thrum
of the motor. By the unusual quickness and completeness

every piston stroke. By the increased mileage the recorder
shows you are getting.
No need to take you through a technical discussion as to
why Atlantic is the finest motor fuel on the market today.
