Frieda will ask Fannie to come down." said Mrs. Osborne, icily, over her shoulder, as she moved into the library. "Thank you. I will go up to her room." replied Alison with equal coolness. ! She ascended the broad, softlycarpeted stairs, a little twisted smile on her lips. She was remembering vividly the early days of her married life when she and Larry had endeavored to build their new life together on the treacherous sands of a mother-in-law's home. Nearly every stair had a separate memory. On this one she had sat and wept because of a slight from the familjs; on that one she had stopped' with hands clenched in rage at some defectioa of Larry's. The first landing hadsbeen the scene of a bitter exchange on the night of Myra Cunningham's bridesmaid dlnneY. Fromsthe ton of the stairs J "she had overheard Jane's criticism when she had returned that first night from a motor drive with War-j ren Bradley. Outside the door of the room she and I^arry had occupied, Alison paused, looking i^to its twilight depths with wide, nxed gaze. Un- bidden and unwelcome tears sprang to her eyes. \ They had been very happy there| at first.June and the honeymoon.j rose colored, despite the families! j She could distinguish the fur- nishings but vagueljf through the » shadows. Everything seemed just j as she had left it on the morning when she luid impetuously decided that life with her husband's family was impossible, and she had gone J to join her mother and Barbara Wales at the Springs. How long*ago that Aeemed! And how trivial had been the circumstances which had brought about her first separation from Larry! What a contrast to tfte yawning chasm of suspicion and misunder- standing that lay between them now! # There was no bridging that chasm, she thought with a sigh. And yet. deep in her heart lay the knowledge that peace and happi-| ness.could be theirs again if aither were ready to sacrifice pride and family. 14 seemed to Alison that a giant, invisible hand, in the guis<^ of their respective families, was driving them inexorably apart; that she was being carried on, wholly conscious and resentful, yet too apathetic to offer active resist- ance. Unwillingly, she moved on to Fannie Wardwell's door and tapped. It opened instantfy. revealing Fannie on the threshold.a new Fannie, radiant, flushed of cheek, wearing a very becoming evening gown. "Aliaon!" % Fannie enfolded the girl in her arms and kissed her warmly, drawng her into the room meanwhile. "I'm so glad it's you! I couldn't have kept from telling it a moment lortger! Alison.

In oM German chronicle*, the feagt of Theophaala la translated by a word meaning brightened night, and the root of that word waa "per ahtfc." How perahta, or berahta. became an Individual character ia too Involved for space here, but It fts sufficient to say that Perahta. or Bertha, was a sacred being, called. in an old Alsatian poem, the fhild Berchte. in whose %onor all young farmers dance, ring cattle .bells and Mow whistles throughout the night of the feast. She 4s pictured as an pld whitehaired woman with a long nose who creeps into nurseries and comforts lUtle children neglected by their nurses. In other stories, she is used as a figure of terror to frlffhten children and is the avenger of idle spinners. Frau Bertha is undoubtedly the impersonation of tne Epiphany, though there is an effort to connect her with the old mythical Huldr. and otjier etymologists believe her to be another name for the Goddess Freya. wife of Odin. One of the most famous Berthas was the wife of Pepin and mother of Charlemagme. known as "Bertha aux grands pleds." Another Bertha of historical fame was her daughter. sister of Charlemagne and wife of Orlando, who being in great want supported herself spinning until her son won recognition from his powerful uncle. Because of Queen 'Bertha of Switaerland, the name has always been very popular there. It has also had great vogue in England since the No/man Conquest and even before that time it was in use. having named the daughter of Chilperlc. King of Paris, and wife of Ethelbert of Kent, who smootneo the way for 8t. Augustine's mission. It is used quite commonly in France and Germany feid in Dante's time, was so frequent in Italy that he places Monna Berta with 8er Martino as the chief of the gossips. Southey gave it additional vogue in England by so calling one of his heroines and it even penetrsrted Greece by the marriage of a German princess of that name to a Greek emperor. Bertha's talismanic stone is th« beryl which is said to keen its wearer amiable and with inconquerable charm. Wearing a beryl will reawaken love in married people.

she and Larry had reached thebrink of the divorce court broughta gasp of horror from his"- motherand aunts.

_ I"Whatever do ypu mean?" dcmanded\Mrs. Osborne. "Alison,

you couldn't.Larry couldn't "

I"$ wouldn't put anything pastAlison!" declared Jane, hysterically."She's perfectly heartless and

"Oh, shut up. Jane!" again Myracame to the rescue. "We're allunstrung. Let's declare a truceuntil after dinner and then discussthis thing comfortably aroundthe Are. Nobody has a right to beemotional on an empty stomach!"She brought the car to a standstillat the curb beft>re the Osborne

house and motioned them all out."I'll run the car around tj^-tt»e

j Jane scrambled out of the machineand flounced into the housewithout a backward glance. Mrs.Osborne followed In chill dignity.Alison trailed along behind them,angry at heart, yet conscious thatshe looked like a culprit schoolchild.

"I£ you wish to follow Myra'sadvice. Frieda will ask Fannie tocome down." said Mrs. Osborne,icily, over her shoulder, as shemoved into the library."Thank you. I will go up to her

room." replied Alison with equalcoolness. !She ascended the broad, softlycarpetedstairs, a little twisted

smile on her lips. She was rememberingvividly the early days of hermarried life when she and Larryhad endeavored to build their newlife together on the treacheroussands of a mother-in-law's home.Nearly every stair had a separatememory.On this one she had sat and wept

because of a slight from the familjs;on that one she had stopped'with hands clenched in rage atsome defectioa of Larry's. Thefirst landing hadsbeen the scene ofa bitter exchange on the night ofMyra Cunningham's bridesmaiddlnneY. Fromsthe ton of the stairs J"she had overheard Jane's criticismwhen she had returned that firstnight from a motor drive with War-jren Bradley.Outside the door of the room she

and I^arry had occupied, Alisonpaused, looking i^to its twilightdepths with wide, nxed gaze. Un-bidden and unwelcome tears sprangto her eyes. \They had been very happy there|

at first.June and the honeymoon.jrose colored, despite the families! jShe could distinguish the fur-nishings but vagueljf through the »shadows. Everything seemed just jas she had left it on the morningwhen she luid impetuously decidedthat life with her husband's familywas impossible, and she had gone Jto join her mother and BarbaraWales at the Springs.How long*ago that Aeemed! And

how trivial had been the circumstanceswhich had brought abouther first separation from Larry!What a contrast to tfte yawningchasm of suspicion and misunder-standing that lay between themnow!

#

There was no bridging thatchasm, she thought with a sigh.And yet. deep in her heart lay theknowledge that peace and happi-|ness.could be theirs again if aitherwere ready to sacrifice pride andfamily. 14 seemed to Alison thata giant, invisible hand, in the guis<^of their respective families, wasdriving them inexorably apart; thatshe was being carried on, whollyconscious and resentful, yet tooapathetic to offer active resist-ance.

Unwillingly, she moved on toFannie Wardwell's door and tapped.

It opened instantfy. revealingFannie on the threshold.a newFannie, radiant, flushed of cheek,wearing a very becoming eveninggown.

"Aliaon!" %

Fannie enfolded the girl in herarms and kissed her warmly, drawngher into the room meanwhile.

"I'm so glad it's you! I couldn'thave kept from telling it a momentlortger! Alison. I'm so happy! I'mgoing to marry Burton Edwards!"

BERTHA.Birth*, signifying bright, has an

How perahta, or berahta. becamean Individual character ia tooInvolved for space here, but It ftssufficient to say that Perahta. orBertha, was a sacred being, called.in an old Alsatian poem, the fhildBerchte. in whose %onor all youngfarmers dance, ring cattle .bells andMow whistles throughout the nightof the feast.She 4s pictured as an pld whitehairedwoman with a long nose

who creeps into nurseries and comfortslUtle children neglected bytheir nurses. In other stories, sheis used as a figure of terror tofrlffhten children and is the avengerof idle spinners. Frau Berthais undoubtedly the impersonation oftne Epiphany, though there is aneffort to connect her with the oldmythical Huldr. and otjier etymologistsbelieve her to be anothername for the Goddess Freya. wifeof Odin.One of the most famous Berthas

was the wife of Pepin and motherof Charlemagme. known as "Berthaaux grands pleds." Another Berthaof historical fame was her daughter.sister of Charlemagne and wifeof Orlando, who being in greatwant supported herself spinninguntil her son won recognition fromhis powerful uncle.Because of Queen 'Bertha of

Switaerland, the name has alwaysbeen very popular there. It hasalso had great vogue in Englandsince the No/man Conquest andeven before that time it was in use.having named the daughter ofChilperlc. King of Paris, and wifeof Ethelbert of Kent, who smootneothe way for 8t.
