you couldn't.Larry couldn't "

"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!"

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.
