■ ulii' myself after I left I lie olllre.
I prornrrd on the way home the
•vi'ssnry supplies. An alluring ills
lsy met my eyes. I went Into the
aiarkct nnd purchased a nice plate
of corned beef I was about to
fc'M 1 he butcher I would carry It with
■ r for my '! o'clock dinner when the
fruicher, who knew me pretty well,
•KHimvl me thnt the corned beef had
tn l*>il a number of hours to be done.
In the reaction which followed this an-
anunrement I remembered "that he
•oulii send It for the next day; I had
■i«*ant that all along," aud I hastily
purchased some oysters nnd lamb
•bop* "I will have oyster soup for
Mir llrst course," said I to myself, "and
«t «>ps and tomatoes for the second If
Mxat won't tie good, I don't know what
will"
rt was 5 o'clock when I got homo.
M was so lonely without Maria that I
•louglit I had better start the dinner
•t once: besides, I wanted that meal
•t fl o'clock sharp Maria had alsmt
fertfbcrnl the life out of me by not
(raving meals on time. 1 lighted
th«- burners Oil the gas stove, and I
4r<>|tle«| to make biscuit, mince pie
and doughnuts, besides cooking the
oysters and the meat. By 5:30 I was
just enjoying the thing I had Ihe uillk
•r>r the oysters contentedly boiling on
ooe of the burners, and the others had
keea blaring for some time, all ready
Cor xis« xx'hen wanted. The first thing
I dnl was tc find a cookbook.
I mn down the Index through pump

to nxlnce pie. This I read carefully,
tfben I sadly closed the book Mince
pie required cold meat, apples and a
MiouHauil other things and could not

A lt distressed, but there xvere still the
tfoiighnuts. I was Just in the midst

• good two hours to make doughnuts
when, by thunder, didn't that milk

w bote litany 1 rushed to the stove,
wized my cleau handkerchief and had
$lim made up my mind that the milk

ts ticfi I discovered the handkerchief
va dune nlso.
The crisis being past, I decided to
■ink" my biscuit. I thought this time
A would not consult the cookbook, for
It was getting along toxxard 0, and It
took too long to hunt up recl|H*s. I
pui a great deal of flout in a small
•owl. dumped In some water, and pro-
ceeded to mold It all Into shape as
1 bail seen Maria often do. In the
•itcrlm I talked to myself.
"I knoxv all about thin," I said with
pride, "you lust stir ut tII it gets the
consistency of cream, put In a pinch

What they always say I have rend It
hundreds of times. I can't fall. I

put them In the oven." I felt I was
succeeding so xvell that I actually be-
gan to hum. when suddenly it occurred
tu me to wonder if one greased the

1 Mid to myself, and I <ttil< Uiy dcco-
Kited the pans xvith dabs of dough

I went out Into the shed and brought
back a pall. Into thnt I scraped the
soup carefully. Next I dumped In the
biscuit Then I gently put Ihe toma-
toes nnd chops on top. This accom-
plished. I passed hurriedly out Into the
back yard, stopping only to get a shov-
el out of the xvooil shed. I dug a hole
nnd tossed the xvhole thing In. Then I
meekly returned to the house and re
galeil myself on some bread and butter
which I found In the pantry, .lust ns
I xvns doing this the clock struck N,
anil Maria came home.
"Hello, dear!" I cried, for I was de-
termined to forestall any remarks
"I've been terribly busy, detained at
the olllre, and Just got home."
"Oh, Tbaddeus!" said Maria regret-
fully. "And you Imve been without
your dinner! I never should have left
you If'—
Ity this time Maria had seen the
kitchen.
"Mnrla." said I solemnly, for I saw
her pa use, "you hnvc been Invited to
