He wondered what he could do to apenee ot, and eneldenly remembered that hie wale always gave the children a bath before pnthing them to bad. He would bathe this ewe so as to give her more time to talk with him. He very soon had the baby in the bath tub, and despite its appeals for " Mamea end " Pala, ' had te well lathered and rhoroughiy orubbed. While drying the child hie wife entered the room. "Oh, Frank 1" $he cried. "How did you get home? I ain so delighted." "1 thought I wouid surpriee you, dear," and he releated her from his embrace and pointed pronely at his work.
