"The man you saw Is to be n all

I would have hlni get In the car and
take him a few rods down the road
so that we would not be overheard,
and then listen to what he. has to
say."
"Ver1 bad plan." T.ee Chow eald
fjiitekly. decisively. "Man ver' bad
man; no get In car, you alone."
He considered for the space of a
second, then threw open the sedan
door and descended with dignity to
the ground.
"Boss lady please get out and go
sit in hack of car." he eald, defer
entially, but still with the ring of
authority in hla voice. "Lee Chow
drive boss lady's car. You see man.
you tell him get In; make snappy.
I came near choking at the oddity
of his ending, but I managed to ad
vance an argument to which 1 felt
he should listen.
"But the man wishes to talk to
me by himself," I said.
"You lit Whistle?"
"He can do." Lee Chow returned.
"Boss lady say 'We go where we
talk by ourselves, nobody passing
by.' Then my man take car away
where he. no hear till I call him
with whistle. You got whistle?" he
broke off to ask.
I drew the curiously carved thing
he had given me from my dress,
where I had carried It evef since
that day, and held It up to him with
a smile.
"That, ver' good." he said solemn
ly. "You keep It, blow It when you
need l ee Chow, no matter day,
night, what time blow, Lee Chow
come quick."
1 shoved aside the startled reali
zation that T,ce ' Chow must be
camping out within hearing distance
of the farmhouse and that Lillian,
Katie and, no doubt, Jim must he
cognizant of his movements, for the
Chinese patently was waiting for an
answer.
"You'd better open the door and
let Mr. Grabby and me In to cap
ture Raggedy Ann and Raggedy
Andy!" Mr. Tinkle shouted through
the keyhole of the cunning little
house.
"Aren't they silly?" the nice lit
tle lady asked as she handed Rag
gedy Ann and Raggedy Andy and
the nice little man a plate with a
large piece of banana cake with
whipped cream over it.
"Indeed! they are!" Raggedy
Ann laughed. "The two creatures
have been trying for a long time to
capture Raggdy Andy and me. but
each time, something happens to
let us escape, and Mr. Tinkle and
Mr. Grabby always get a lot of
bumps, or hard knocks for their
trouble!"
"You would think they would
row tired trying to capture you
and run home!" the little lady said. I
"That's just the reason we wish
to capture Raggedy Ann and Rag
gedy Andy!" Mr. Grabby howled
through the key hoi". "We are so
tired, we do not wish to do our own
work, we want the Raggedys to do
it for us!"
"And we shall flay here until you
open the door!" Mr. Tinkie howled.
"And If you do not open the door
and let us capture the Raggedys,
ne shall also capture you as well
as them and make the four of you
do all of our work!"
"Don't pay any attention to
them!" the little man said, "They
are exceedingly rude, "Besides, they
can never get In here and capture
any of us!"
"We'll climb upon the roof and
come down the chimney!" Mr. Tin
kie howled, "Then. I'll bet a nickel
you'll be sorry when we puff the
magic powder on you!"
"But the little man just laughed,
"Ha. ha. ha!" and gave the Rag
gedys more of the lovely cake.
"Just because you made fun of
us. we will get the ladder, and climb
right up on the roof and come down
the chimney after you!" Mr. Grab
Vy cried.
So he and Mr. Tinkie ran to the
llttie man's shed and brought a
ladder and placed It against the
cunning little house. "We shall have i
I hem in a Tery short time, Mr. Tin- I
kl-!" Mr. Grabby said. !
"Indeed! We shall, Mr. Grabby!" i
Mr. Tinkio agreed and he climbed J
up the ladder. When Mr. Tinkle I
reached the roof, he helped Mr. j
Grabby op, for Mr. Grabby was
ever so much fatter than Mr. Tin
kie. I
Then. Just aa Mr. Grabby reached j
the roof beside Mr. TtnKie. Tne ni

and pul'.ed the ladder away from
the house.

"All rl'," he said gravely, and
mounting to the driver's Beat of the

from the culvert which I had

"He go to culvert now, talio look

He drove the car at a snail's pace,
accordingly, until we reached the

"Steve." But I did not at first rec

but Raggedy Ann and Raggedy

"We can easily let the nice little
lady and the nice little man ride

Raggedy Andy said. "Then we can
all escape!"
But the little ninn just chuckled
to himself and dually said, "There
is no cause to be alarmed. Raggedy
Ann and Raggedy Andy, for instead
of Mr. Tinkie and Mr. Grabby mak

themselves prisoners. Cause why?''
he said with another chuckl'',
"Cause there Isn't any chimney to

THE bTUHs 8" EAHi
Gloria Gordon, beautiful 'flapper,
marries IMck Gregory, a struggling
lawyor. ler idea- of marriage Is fun
and tine clothes .. ;, . mit no work
or children. ,.''.
Bhe refuses polnthlunk to do her
own housework and hires maid.
Rut Pick hns to let the maid, go,
because ho can't afford her wages.
Gloria has swamped him with her
debts. '
b'ho becomes infatuated with an
out-of-work actor. Stanley' Way
burn. When he leaves town, to go
to New Xork, ho follows him. But
lie spurns her. Then she tries to
get a Job as a chorus girl and falls.
Gloria begins to reallie how lonely
she Is for tlek. But she Is afraid
to go homo to him.
At last, however, alio doea go.
Dick takes her back but not aa his
wife. Gloria wondora If he la not
In love with his secretary," Susan
Brtggs. L'lck stays out late one
night. Gloria is sure that he Is with
Miss Brlggs, but the next day she
learns that he spent tho night at
the home of Dr. John Seymour who
had killed himself because ot his
wife, May's love affair with Jim
Carewe.
The breach between Pick and
Gloria widens. Gloria makes up her
mind to get back Into Dick s good
graces. Finally she goes to Dick's
mother to ask her to teach her to
cook,. Mother Gregory spend tho
day with her. helping her do the
housework. And Dick eromes home
to find dinner ready, the house In
order, and his tousled wife in a
bungalow apron.
SOW GO ON WITH THE BTORT
"Who did all the heavy house.
work? . . . Not you, I know," Dick
said, unbelievingly.
But his eyes swept Gloria from
her untidy head to the hem of her
bedraggled apron. He had never
seen her like this before . .
She certainly looked as If she had
been working!
"Who do you suppose did It?" she
snapped at him, "The army of serv
ants you've hired to help me? , ,
Of course I did It, and I'm all In.'
Every bone In her body ached.
She dragged herself wearily past
Dick Into the kitchen. "Dinner's
ready," she threw over her shoulder
as she went.
The meal was done to a turn.
The chicken was richly brown, the
vegetables tender, and the salad
Chilled and crisp.
With the first thrill of housewife
ly pride that she had 'ever known,
Gloria set the dishes down on the
spotless tablecloth.
Marvelling', Dick sat down to eat
"I hope everything's as good as
it looks," he said doubtfully. Glorli
sent him a look of fury.
"It is!" she said.
And so It was. As he. ate, Dlck't
sense of wonder grew. Had his wife
become an expert cook over night?
But when Gloria brought In the
dessert, the mystery was solved for
hlra. "It was Mother, bless her!" he
said. "No one In the world makes
chocolate custard like that but her!
"It was not your mother," Gloria
said with honest Indignation. "1
made that custard all by myself!
All your mother did was to sit out
in the kitchen and give me orders
Dick nodded. "Sure, I knew she
bossed the job," he said. "Tou
couldn't cook a meal like that alone,
on a bet! . . . What's she doing?
Giving you cooking lessons?"
Gloria grunted.
"She's been giving me orders,
mostly," she answered. "She said
she'd come over and help me out.
But all she did was to cut a lot ot
your best roses and strew them all
over the house! . , . She's some
kid! She ought to be a gang boss!
She'd make a peach. . . ."
"I wish you wouldn't speak about
my mother In that way, Gloria,"
Dick interrupted. He looked an
noyed. "Oh, blah, I'll do as I please." the
girl answered, bitterly. "I'm getting
tired of being slammed all the time.
It's time I began to pan a few peo
ple myself. . . Tou treat me like
a doormat, and expect me to like
it!"
"If I've treated you like a door
! mat I'm sorry," Dick apologised.
' He got up and walked out onto the
front porch.
That wae just like Dick! When
ever he was getting the worst of an
argument, he got up and walked
away. He was simply maddening!
Well, this was one time when he
wouldn't get away with it! She'd
walk right out after him, and say
what she had lo say to him!
Suppose the neighbors did hear it.
. . .? They probably had a few fam
ily battles Jhemselves, at times.
But just as Gloria opened Oie
screen door to go out, Dick walked
down . the front steps and around
the house to the back yard.
Gloria ran upstairs and put a
touch of rouge on either cheek.
Then she followed him out to the
garage where he was tinkering with
ihe car.
"Dick." she said In a quiet, even
olee, "I can't go on living like
this. For three days I've been do
ing my housework just as well as
I know how to do It . . . ana l m
willing to go on with it, if you'll
only treat me decently. Won't you.
please?"
Dick turned toward her. He had
taken off his coat, and rolled up
his sleeve. His hair was raffled,
and there w-a a smear of grease
across his cheek. He looked boyish
i . . . absurdly boyish.
Gloria took her handkerchief
from her apron pocket, and rubbed
the grease from his face. Her hand
, dropped to hi shoulder and stayed
there.
"Dick," she said, "I'm so un
happy. ..."
She looked up t him. In the
dusk her eye wer black and
luminous, her mouth like a dark
flower. "I want you to kiss me,
I -Irk." she murmured. "i.et'8 be
friends. . . . It's terrible, living at
arm's length, this way. . . ."
"Two falcons tn a snarV-OIck
quoted.- He moved a step or tws
; away from her.
i "Now. jus what 4o joo nvn by
J that?" Gloria asked sharply. u
hated Dick to quote thing that she
didn't understand from the books
he waa forever reading.. .,
He shrugged hU shoulder. "It
doesn't matter." he said, "But I
know, myself, that we can't go on
living this way. It' Impossible,! I
see It, too."
Gloria drooped. She braced her
self -against tht 1d of the garage
door. , ". v
Well, what are w going to do
about It?" she asked. "Do you wont
me to leave you? Do you hate me
as much as that, Dick?"
He did not answer at once. He
took his old pipe from his pocket
and tilled It.
It's like this, Glory," he saw
finally. "I don't hate you, at all.
But Wayburn . . . he' there, bo
tween us, somehow. Tou see, I can't
ever kid myself again that you care
about me. I know that you'd be In
New York with him now, if he'd
wanted you to be there. , , . A man
doesn't forget a thing like that. No
one but a boob like me would ever
have had you In hi house again,
on any terms. . .
"But I didn't : do anything
wrong!" Gloria defended herself,
"What are a few silly kisses'" j
IMck sneered. ' i j
"Tes ... 1 know that's the way
you look at it," he said, "but no
decent woman would let any man
but her husband kiBS her, Glory.
She wouldn't soil herself that way."
Gloria tossed her head Impatient
ly. "Oh, you're so old-fashioned,"
she answered. "Think of alt the
petting that goes on at -wild par
ties. And it doesu't mean a thing."
"That makes it all the more rot
ten, then," Dick pointed out. "Love
isn't a game or a toy. It' bigger
than any of us. ..."
He broke off abruptly. And when
he spoke again his voice was quite
cold and matter-of-fact. "Come on,
let' go into the house. The mosqui
toes are beginning to bite out here."
He stooped to scratch his ankle.
They went In,- Silently Gloria
cleared the table, piled the dishes
on the sink, and put the clean milk
bottles out on the back porch.
Then she went Into the living
room to 1oln Dick. But he didn't
look up. He went on reading as if
he were all alone In the house.. , , .
He was utterly unaware of Gloria.
"Well," she said after ten or fif
teen minutes had crawled by, "You
treat me just as If 1 were a piece of
furniture or something."
Dick closed his book and laid It
on the table. "Did you w ant to talk
to me?" he asked.
"Yes," Gloria answered. Her
words came with a rush. "I've been
thinking over what you said about
Stan Wayburn having come between
you and me. . . . And yet. you keep
Miss Brlggs working In your office
when you know she's in love with
you . . . and that I want you to
get rid of her!"
Dick gave a short laugh. Ho
picked up his book and opened it.
"If every man, whose wife want
ed him to, would ft his stenog
rapher, half the girls in the country
would be out of a job tomorrow
morning," he said. "No, I'm not go
ing to fire Miss Brlggs. Why should
I? , . , She' a good worker. I'd
have a hard time filling her place."
t Then, was a flick of finality in
his voice.
"Very well, you keep her," Gloria
answered. "I should Svorry. I'm go
ing home to my mother tomorrow,
anyway."
Dick made no sign that ne naa
heard her.
"You don't care If I go, do you?"
she asked, hoping he'd say he dd
care.
T want you to do whatever you
think will make you happy," Dick
said gravely. "You know you can
stav here as long as you like. But
It you'd rather live with your
mother and father, I'll take care of
you. I'll send you all the money I
can spare, every week. So do as you
please."
Gloria tried to smile ... a poor
little, smile that barely lifted the
corners of her mouth. Herd throat
swelled, and her eyes aenca wim
unshed tears.
"All right, old dear." she eald,
trvine to make her voice light and
careless. But a high note of agony
ran through it.
Incredibly she went straight to
sleep, her worn-out Dooy uiruuuuiB
in vprv nerve. Ana ai aawii vu
next morning she awoke.
She sat tip in bed and looked
nmunH her room . . . the familiar
room with its wide window-seat, its
flowered cushions, and sliver pi&
tnre frames.
Tomorrow morning she'd be wak-

In her father's shabby little house.

had leaked through the
th- Mistered woodwork, the

winter, too hot In the summer! Ana
how utterly glad she had been to

A tear slid down Gloria' cheek
as she thought of all the mornings
of her future ... tne loneiy
awakenings In that llttie room.
She lay with closed eye and
heard Dick tirrlng tn hla room,
whistling t" bth- ln"ln
"Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep"
as he dressed.
Later the sound of his car leav
ing the jard. Then silence. She
would not see him again, ah knew.
The doorbell rang. Gloria Slipped
her naked feet into bedroom Up
per, threw a kimono around her,
and ran downstairs.
Through the net curtain on the
front door, she could see May Bey

in the world did May want, coming
at that time of th morning?
"Hello. Glory, how' every little
