Had I been mistaken, after all, and did his action In driving me to the station have its roots not In a desire for reconciliation, aa I had thought, but in hia horror of having outsiders think we had qimrrelod? The thought was intolerable, and I put my hand on the door of the car with the Intention of getting out again, when I felt Dicky's hands on my shoulders, turning me toward him. His eyes looked quizzically down Into mine, and then, regardless of possible passing cars, he stooped, kissed me with rough tenderness, gave me a little shake, released mo. and turned hack to the wheel.

"Sou little devil!" he said, and the familiar phrase which on Dicky's lips becomes an endearing one, told me mo-e plainly than anything else could have done that the last trace of his anger had vanished.

"Shut up!" he growled. "What do too want to spfll anything like that for, even In fun? It's bad enough having you start off on this fool trip, without any Idea of just where you're going, or how long you're going to be gone.

His voice held the gruff anxiety which makes any wife's heart leap with the knowledge that it is grounded In deep pincere husbandly affection, and I put my hand over his on the wheel In alight and understanding caress. "I like to hear you talk that way, Dicky," I said, as I snuggled closer to him. "But that doesn't alter the fact that I simply must go and get Katie fcack if there's any chance of doing it, And if I can't, I'll Just have to go to tin agency and bring back the very best possible maid I can, regardless of the trice." "You mean the best three, don't you?" Dicky said. "I have a sneaking idea that you'll find times have changed so much since Katie came to us that it will take a quarter-dozen high-salaried, modern work-dodgers to replace her." "Two dozen couldn't do that," I returned loyally.

"So don't discourage me. Just wish me luck Instead, and you'll see TO bring Katie back with me.

"You can bet we will," Dicky retorted, and we fairly flew down the country road, reaching the tunnel beneath the tracks just as the city train hove In sight. "Madame Wfll Pardon Me."

There was something about this Journey which depressed me unaccountably, and It took me several minutes to recover my poise.

Through necessity he was obliged to nhoose a profession. Bacon chose the law. He afterward became lord chancellor of England, and was famous not only as a great lawyer and adviser to king, but as a writer. As a young man, Bacon was given clerkship of the star chamber. It was a valuable appointment, and Bacon needed the money.

Unfortunately, the post did not become vacant for twenty years. In speaking of this clerkship, Bacon said: "It is like another man's house but-tailing upon my house, which might mend my prospect, but does not All my bam." Lord Bacon was once trying a man robbery.

to You! Fascinating Table-Covers. These covers are used on polished tables with an Indian basket filled with fruit or nuts In the centre, or a brass bowl of flowers or ferns. The vogue for peasant embroidery, Intensified since the war, has taught us the art of using riotous coloring held in check by dull or neutral backgrounds. For Instance, old-fashioned brown linen of the darkest shade, embroidered with oranges, leaves and blossoms, is fascinating. The edge is finished In this case with buttonholing In self-tone.

Another version of the same work Is on green linen, the old willow shade. Wee pumpkins, vines and blossoms are done partly in stem stitch and applique. The pumpkins are of deep yellow linen or felt appliqued in place. The hem is folded onto the right side, and is faggoted with black, silk or linen floss. Some of the fruit designs are so mapped out that a large apple, orange, plum or peach forms a scallop every six Inches all round the edge, vines and blossoms running up onto the cloth, and between each fruit scallop the edge la finely buttonholed In silk or linen floss the color of the fruit.

The cloths done by the Bohemian workers are In gay coloring and in con- ventional designs. Though many colors are used in this work, they are combined after the Persian manner, and they do not offend the eye or kill other coloring in the room. The Russian work uses a great deal of black, dark blue and green in the designs, which makes it suitable to use in rooms with 1 Jacobean furniture and decorations.

The Way Francis Bacon's Wit IT is said that wit is sometimes inherited.

Such was the case with Lord Bacon. He had a witty father. But, the qualities with which Sir Nicholas Hacon lord keeper of the great seal in the time of Elizabeth was endowed, ehone more brightly in his illustrious fon, Francis Bacon Baron Varulam, Viscount St. Alban, best known to his tory as Lord Bacon, The father's wit is shown in a remark which he made to Queen Elizabeth when she complimented him upon "He Is a Tall and Proper his advancement to membership In her privy council. The Queen said to Sir Nicholas: "Your house at Redgrave is now too small for you." Bacon, the elder, bowed and replied: "But your majesty has made me too great for my house." Even as a little hoy Lord Bacon, th eon of the author of this fitting answer, was known to be witty.

"But they made their clothes popular with the children first, by going Into the doll business in a small way." "What do you mean by that?" I asked, puzzled. "Why, with each pair of rompers, they sell a tiny don dressed the same way.

So It's the children who are eager for the rompers when they see them In the store, and their grown-ups end by taking them, too," she explained. "That ought to make good material for a story," I observed as we entered the elevator which would take us to the wholesale firm. "Miss Smith, you are Just in time," said the manager, advancing to meet Judith. "My young daughter has been brought In to choose a pair of rompers, and I want you to see them on her." We saw the nurse buttoning a small child into the little suit. She had put the tiny tot on the table to make her height more convenient for fitting.

"She wiggles about so, it's difficult to button her In," she explained. "But she's much more cunning in these than in a dress." We saw a rosy-cheeked little girl with pale yellow hair being put into an adorable suit of yellow and white. Her fresh color and blonde hair were charming with the which formed the little trousers and the collar and cuffs. The blouse to which the trousers buttoned was of white. "What is the material T' I asked Judith.

"It's crash," she said. "They come In linen and other materials, too." "That peg-top effect of the little trousers is very attractive," I observed. The nurse adjusted her charge's white pique hat, which happened to be very much like the one on the small dolly. The youngster was deeply engrossed In the doll, which had occupied her whole attention, but when she began to realize that her own garb was just like the dolly's, delighted. "Her mother never did like too many pinks and blues," remarked the nurse, well-pleased with the appearance of the smart yellow outfit on the little one.

For instance, the writer had a Chinese-blue plush table-cover, embroidered with gay silk flowers, for a wedding gift from her husband's best friend, which was a nightmare for years.

There was no getting away from that table-cover. It killed every other color that came near it, and dominated every other decoration with Its gaudy elegance, until every strand of Its wonderful fringe became an object of Intense dislike. In time tho friend moved to the country, and the cover, upstairs. Then the friend went West, and the cover went to a rummage sale. Today, all this form of decorative covering is over, and the cover chosen invariably lies on the top of the table instead of hanging over the edge The state of Michigan has become known among Interior decorators aa the home qf some very beautiful, so-called "cut work." This Is done on unbleached linen and sold at exclusive shops in the East The work resembles somewhat Mexican drawn work, but is heavier, and the edge of a cover, circular or square, is finished with a firm edge which has a corded effect with huge knots like French knots, one Inch apart.
