But the car's acting up a bit, it ought to be taken to a garage as scon as possible." "What seems to be the matter with It?" Dicky queried. "I think the clutch needs adjusting," Noel replied, and I could have clapped my hands in glee at the way the fates were working for me. "But that doesn't need to effect your plan for the beach," I told them. "Jim can take your car down to the garage, and you can take one of ours if that meets with your approval, Dear," I turned 4i sum iJHl if4- a a i i JIM WAS patently nervous, shifting his weight from one foot to the other and twisting a small wrench between his fingers.

His eyes were fixed upon the kitchen door, and I guessed that he was ready to leave precipitately should Katie put her head out of the door.

"What it it, asked in low tones. "Why, I wondered when you wanted me to start on that clutch, and where I could take it to do it," he said, keeping his-own voice almost to a whisper and his eyes fixed upon the door back of me. "I don't know myself yet, Jim," I said.

"But you won't need to worry. I'll call you after a while, and tell you, before the others, to take the car somewhere. When you're gone away on that errand, you can break the clutch as you planned, and then telephone me, Jim Feels Better 'Til tell you what to do over the jtelephone.

"I ain't noways anxious to have Katie wise to this, and she'll be sure to suspicion something if she saw me talking to you private like this." "You won't have to, again," I assured him, and then I went back to the veranda, where I found Mary on the arm of her grandmother's chair, smoothing the older woman's snowy hair while Noel was talking animatedly to Dicky. "Katie says lunch will be ready" 'Joost so qveeck as vun leetle sheep kin vag hees tall'," Dicky and Mary chanted together. "Something like that," I told them laughing, but my mother-in-law frowned.

While employment isr; fairly aspected otherwise, there are apt to be sudden upsets and dev-, astating circumstances.

Unless impetuosity and caustic speech and. writings are subdued, they may breed enmity and spite. If This Is Your Birthday Those whose birthday it is may be prepared for a year of sudden disruptions and upsets that may cause removals' and changes, more or less unwelcome. Unless erratic, tempestuous and reckless, as well as bitter, Bpeech and writings be kept under rigid control they may brew enmities, strife and reprisals. Successful Issues depend entirely on sagacity, restraint and composure.
