Morris Tries Desperately to Escape Caring for the Baby "a Whole After-
"Morris, Mrs. Ellson has invited me to a little sowing club that meets at her house Saturday afternoon. I am so pleased." Marian met her husband at the door to tell him the good news. "That was certainly kind of her."
Morris smiled tolerantly at his wife. "Women were such children in some things. "They changed the meeting from the regular day to Saturday so you could me at home to stay with the children," continued Marian. "Ahem! Why, Marian, I had planned to work on -my paper to be read before the County
Tj -.i_l.trs'
1 really must ha.e my on that paper." Mor. is
seemed sorry that the steam i-o of necessity must crush her trifling pleasures.
Why can't you work on the paper evenings?" There was anxiety in Marian's voice. "You know how that is. The evenings are so short and I no more than get started than it is time to- go 10 bed. I must have a long enough t'me to get the thing organ-zed and well inider way, then I ca.n finish it up during the week by working evenings." Morris calmly picked up a book preparing to read. "When is the association meeting?" asked his wife. "A week from Saturday afternoon," absently replied the husband, alieadv immersed in the pages of the book. Marian thought for some minutes in silence. "Morris, what do you expect to do Saturday morning?"
Morris made a vocal intonation that indicated that he had heard a sound, but it evidently had not pierced his inner consciousness, for he made no reply. "I asked what you intended to do Saturday morning." There was an incisiveness of tone that brought the eyes from the book and the wandering attention to focus on her face. "Why, the usual thing I always do schooi work in the office Saturday morning. Why do you ask?" His eyes dropped to his book again. "I will wait, Morris, till you are ready to attend to what I say." Marian seated herself calmly in front of him. "What is it you want?' was the irritated reply. "Simply to ask if it. wtlL .not be possible to do the work you planned to do at school- Saturday morning some other time _anl so. malte. it possible to use the morning for work on your paper. Then you could care for children in the afternoon and I. go to Mrs. Ellson's thimble
the could club."
w w
"Are you harping on that yet? I thought that was settled long ago.v I told you my plans.' Morris crossed his knees and re-opened his book, but he did not look at it instead he stared at his wife so astonished was he at her reply. She said: "Nothing is settled till it is settled right." "What do you mean?" he asked. "I mean that I am going to Mrs. Ellson's Saturday, and you are going to take care of the children if there is any possible way to arrange it." Morris' jaw did not drop because he made a conscious effort to prevent it, but his wife had undoubtedly gained his attention. "I have had no society since Roger was born. We have moved so often that I have never had a chance to get acquainted, especially as I never got out to church. Here the people are so friendly and are making such an effort to make me one of them that I want to "Can't you get Mrs. Fislc to stay with them?" interrupted Morris. "I might if I had the money to pay her. You know just how much we have to go on till the end of the month. I can't ask her to come for' nothing because she aid it once." Morris sat and stared at his wife in silence. She seemed3 so" calm and good-natured, but there was an element of force in her that surprised him. "Some more undiscovered territory," he thought. "I don't know whether I could manage the baby a whole afternoon or not," he demurred. "I can give you a few lessons be fore the time comes. It is time that a father of a family learned to care for a baby 'a whole afternoon.' laughed Marian, stooping to kiss his unresisting cheek.

Dauntless Coffee is grown on high lands of South America, and like Mountain Flowers possesses mild and delicate qualities.
Dauntless CofFee costs more to raise than coffee grown in the ri,ver bottoms and low lands, which on account of the rich soil is more profitable to the grower as its growth is much quicker than mountain coffee, but it is usually rank and represents quantity not quality.
Dauntless Coffee possesses delicious flavor and is unexcelled in quality —it has been on the market for forty years, and the sales are constantly increasing. HULMAN & C\
