'Memorial For Bronte Sisters Tablet Set Up in Poets' Corner of Westminster Abbey A memorial tablet ip commbm- oration of the Bronte Sisters has been set up in the:Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey. It is' of Yorkshire old Huddlestone stone provided by the Dean and Chapter of York, It ic but right and fitting that the threc sisters should be honored."

She tells Bart she has m0 money, he discovers she is-in debt. Yet Iris buys a new mink coat to 'feel wanted." CHAPTER XI Though it was Monday, and she had recklessly splurged $12 on a dinner party for her friends Sat- urday night, and _Bart had worked at the shop all day Sunday, and Sunday night until long after sho slept, Iris left the office with a clear plan in: her busy mind. She had taken-the mink coat at noon, and hidden it deep in one end of her clothes closet back of her last winter's coat, her raincoat, her summer sport coat, and the long, furred tweed coat to her ward- robe suit, Now, at four-thirty, she "bought a steak, bought everything for a grand feed. The way she used to do before they were married. When she was trying every wile | she knew to enchant Bart and make him propose to her. Now, she haggled over wager- cress--it wasn't fresh enough, it was bruised, it didn't loak good. She bought four big baking pota- toes, and a dozen home baked roils at Mrs. Kembie's Home Kii--- chen. She bought peaches and heavy cresm for whipping, and a pound of butter, and lima beans because Bart Was erazy about them, stewed in sauce. She squandered 50 cents on Bem Whipple's taxi to take hey- home with all her parcels, and hurrying -out of her office clothes, tied a' cute printed house-coat abot her slender waist and. started the meal. Supper Just Right At six, everything was ready and waiting, even to the iron skil- let smoking hot, ready for the steak the minute Bart appeared, The salad was on (the ice, and shortcake, also. And in the glass coffee-maker, amber brown brew murmured contentedly. At six-fifteen, Bart came in, tir- ed, dispirited and silent. Iris flung him a radiant smile and started the steak. She took the potatoes _out and popped cubes of butter. into each yawning seam, where the scored place had burst a' few minutes before. The (lima beans oozed yellow butter as she pour. ed them into the dish, and the . hot rolls were just. _right--crisp, and not dry. Still he didn't notice. Still he just came in, pulled his chair out and sat down and began scooping his potato out onto his plate, Iris passéd him the platter of steak and he _ helped himself-to it. By the time they reached the short cake, Iris'was ready to scream, "She watched him cut- the cake, watched his fork travel from the plate, laden with -¢réam topped 'with peaches and cake, to his mouth, and back again, and the awful silence was too 'much. Ab- ruptly, she pushed away her un- touched desert. Desperately, she faced him aéross the little table laden with the remnants of their lovely dinner. "Bart, what #8 it?" she asked _ shakily. "What's It To You" Dully, he looked at her, Wear- ily, as if trying to brush:away a burden he could not bear, he plowed tense fingers through the | thick wavy brown hair, Then light. ing a cigaret, he started splitting the match a dozen ways with n nerve. ous thumbnail, a rich butter "What's it to you, Iris?' he asked bluntly, "Bart, you know anything. that concerns you, concerns me, too!" "Don't worry, I'll manage to support you in the manner you're determined to enjoy, Iris." "Bart--please!" "All right, you asked for it. The 'bank wouldn't give me any more time on my notes, so they took over my ihsurance as forfeit." "Bart--why how could they? If you paid the interest and met the payments," "I didn't pay the interest, Iris, I couldn't. And 1 couldn't borrow any money anywhere. Not even from loan sharks, So they took my policies." "How . . . how much had you paid in, Bart?" "Over a thousand on all of them. I had only four years to go on two of them, and I'd have twenty-five hundred on each." "Bart, did you try the Finance Company that loans on furni- ture?" "What good would that do, Iris? When I couldn't pay them they'd take our furniture. We'd only be that much worse off." "Bart, if you're not making any money at the shop why .do you keep on getting in deeper and deeper?" He stared at her in Trastentold annoyance. "We've been over all this be- fore, Iris; why bother again? I'M making enough to get by, if we economized. We can't seem to, So that's that." © : "They'd no right to take all that insurance away from you, Bart! Can't you make them just take out_the amount due;-and give you back the rest?" "Iris, you know nothing about business or finance, so quit both- ering with this." "Quit bothering, Bart Whit- taker! The idea. When that was to be our own home, when the policiés were paid up." He glanced at her curiously. Shrugged finally, as if he gave up. "It's a little late to think of that now, Iris. They're gone." Evaporated Guilt Absurdly, she began to feel guilty about the mink coat. But after she had cleated the table, and decided to eat her short-cake after - all, the guilt evaporated, Though she did worry, a little, over whether she'd manage to keep the coat, now that Bart was in trouble, If she had to use any of her salary to run the house, or pay expenses with, she'd be in a_bad jam all right, With all the other payments 'she had to make on the clothes she had 'been buy- ing right" along. Paying on old accounts, buying more, creating further budget appropriations. Talking In His Sleep That "night, Iris woke up to. ward morning, and a cold rain was blowing in. She got up and closed the window, and turned, arrested, when Bart began muttering in his sleep. "I tell you it's impossible--I'm sorry, I can't help it. I can't do it, I tell you, I can't--don't you understand? My wife's salary has nothing to do with this, this is my affair. Seventy-five a week to- géther and we owe everybody. All right, so what? Do you want all my creditors to be cheated of their money?" Shivering, she lay still listening, but there was no more. Thougn ho tossed and turned a lot and groaned." Shivering, she wondered VITAMIN Bs PLANT GROWTH diss Be SY Lr \ if she oughtn't take the mink coat back after all. But it was so cold in the morning, a sharp wind, and the driving rain, And remembering her heavy coat was worn, she put the anxiety out of her mind. Bart was always borrowing trouble. This was probably just another false alarm because he hadn't made $50 clear profit this w cals or something like that, They breakfasted hastily, and Bart hurried away as soon as he was finished. 'At noon, when she telephoned, Iris was informed he was out. And Ellen was lunching with her husband, and neither of- fered to invite her to join thém. So she ate a solitary lunch at the- soda bar around the corner. And finishing, heard the news about her husband losing his radio and washing machine agency. "Sure, didn't you know?" Truck's over there now, taking the stuff. I heard he couldn't make a lot of dead-beats pay their weekly instalments, so the com- pany took them over. But this will be a bad dent to the shop all right, Hurts a business when any- thing like that hits them." L* * * Iris 'didn't answer. She walked out and went back to the office.

One part of the world {s quite sure it is "Apple Ple", not forgetting the cheese, Then others again are sure that. "Lemon Ple" satisfies the great majority as the finest that culinary art can executy for the pie kingdom. But there is still a part of the world left, whose opinion cannot be lightly discredit: she wanted and thought she couldn't have. Worries after she got it, for fear she wouldn't be able to make the payments and might lose it. Worries over suits, coats, gowns, wraps. But always the same. Always budget worries, All her married life, too, Wor- rying over the powder blue suit the very night Bart asked her lo marry him. Then silencing her worries because of what she could do, once she had it. That night, Bart was home a- head of her. Lying on his bed, covered with a satin puff, 111 with a severe cold. Tired, and ill, and silent. Iris tried to make him take some medicine, some aspirin, or a gargle, or something but he re- fused, He was all right; leave him alone. She tried to make him have a doctor, "I don't want a doctor, and I couldn't pay one if I had him, Now get out and leave me alone, will you?" In the kitchen, feeling rather abused and neglected, she scram- bled two eggs and made coffee, There was some short-cake left, and some salad. Eating her soli tary supper, Iris decided budgets weren't much fun. Not mixed with marriage they weren't. Because the budgets were to blame for all this. If Bart weren't so set on liv- ing within his old budget hook Hatiictions, everything would be fine. In the widie of the night, she heard Bart prowling around. And speaking to him sharply; was al- armed to discover he was walking in his sleep. His voice sounded queer and thick, -and a trifle shrill, but he got back into bed again directly when she. spoke to him. And right after that he had a chill. Shaking so her own bed three feet away trembled, Iris was alarmed and got up. «She got her heavy winter coat, and her spring coat, and his over- coat and piled them on his bed. She lighted the gas and boiled wa- ter and got a hot water bottle, Stiil he shook so his teeth trembled and he kept sneezing in awful spasms of seven or eight sneezes at a time.
