CHAPTER XVII Continued Inside the Senator's house, telephones rang, glasses clicked, and in the library, the radio blared returns. "Lehman and Dewey running neck and neck!" "Willis has a slight edge in Indiana." "Gillette of Iowa is trailing." "Wagner forges ahead." "Barbour is out in front." "It's a landslide in Maryland." "The Solid South still solid." "Murphy lags in Michigan." "Slopshire far in the lead." "McCarran holding his own in Nevada." "You're wanted on the 'phone," said Hilda to Limpy, in a diplomatic whisper. "They been trying to get you thirty minutes but couldn't worm through them Congrats." Limpy ran up to the telephone once more. "Limpy!" It was Adele's voice. "Darling Limpy Len feels terribly, darling. I haven't cheered him up as much as I expected. The Governor is furious at him though very polite in public. And he's out of a job, as I expected. And after all, I'm entitled to part of the insurance, don't you think so? And I think it's really my duty to use it, my share of it, I mean, to keep the wolf off Len till he gets a job . . . Are you listening, Limpy?" "Am I listening? . . . Are you nuts? . . . You sound nuts! . . . Listen, Adele, this racket's too tough for us. We haven't got the alligator hides to take it. Now you take an aspirin and call the doctor and" "We've already called a clerk to rig up a marriage license, and we've arranged for Brother Wilkie to perform the ceremony and we think we'd better just get married, darling, and settle down," finished Adele. Limpy swallowed hard. This was worse than she had expected. "It sounds like something Len Hardesty would cock up, the worm I" she said, with tears in her eyes. "Where do you plan to do this dastardly deed?" "Here, Limpy. At the Governor's mansion. There's not much going on here." v .

I've got some family rights, haven't I? I've been cheated here and cheated there but this time I'm coming. I want to be the bridesmaid." "Limpy, please think of Auntie's nerves!" " 'Think of fiddlesticks!' " quoted Limpy fiercely "If you do anything before I get there, I'll file papers of annulment. I'll get Aunt " Olympia to sue somebody. Limpy raced downstairs. The first thing she caught was Cecil's eye. She gave him an inviting lilt of her small head. "Cece," she whispered. "I've got to disappear for a few minutes. "Weill I'll disappear with you." "No, you can't. If we both disappear, Aunt Olympia'll get out a search warrant. I'm in a very tight place. I I've got nobody but you, Cece, to depend on . . . Aw, Cece?" "What do you want me to do?" he demanded. "I want you to keep yourself right in front of Aunt Olympia till I get back, so she can see you every minute and know you're not off some place looking at me. I feel terrible left alone and lonesome,, Cece. I don't know what I'd do if I hadn't you to depend on." "Okay," he said. "Don't be gone long or I'll get out a search warrant myself. Can I get you started or anything?" "How good are you to me, Cece," she said gratefully. "No. Just get in front of Aunt Olympia." Suddenly remembering that although the day had been mild, it was a fall night and the papers had predicted a cold snap with flurries of snow, she caught the first wrap she could lay hand on.. It was a very nice squirrel jacket. It beGood-by.- longed to Mrs. Mabel Chairman of the Ladies' Division of the State Committee. As she was struggling to get her arms into it, she was disconcerted to find Hilda helping her. "Oh . . . It's you," she said. Then, "If Aunt Olympia asks about me, you can just say I've gone to snatch a little rest and I'll be back pretty soon; and I'm quite all right now and I've taken an aspirin and tomorrow will be plenty of time to call the doctor." Hilda gave her a very ugly look. "It doesn't seem as if to me you're exactly dressed for no rest," she said. "I do my best resting in furs," said Limpy, firmly. "It's a habit. Tell her I'll be back I mean down very soon." Then she put her squirrel-swathearms around Hilda and kissed her. "Oh, Hilda." she said. "You'll have to be a sister to me from this on.

"You got a car?" "No. I'll find a taxi running around somewhere." "You better go out through my kitchen. They got a hired doorman in front." Hilda went with her. Rushed as she was, and for all her fury of indignation, Hilda realized that Limpy was the big job around that house. She called a policeman and had him pick up a car, and waited with Limpy till it came. Hilda gave the driver his orders. "You take her wherever she's going and wait for her and bring her back. I got your number and I got influence with the Senator and you take her and bring her back with no back talk from anybody or I speak to the Senator about it." Hilda was no coward. She went straight to Aunt Olympia. "I just put Miss Limpy where seems as if to me maybe she can get a little rest for a while and God knows she needs it and I'll have her on hand for when they get through giving all them dumb states nobody ever heard of and we cut the Victory Cake and here's another plate of sandwiches." "That was very nice of you, Hilda," said Olympia gratefully. "Very nice. Did you give her an aspirin?" "I gave her everything she needed," said Hilda with surprising diplomacy. "And nobody's to bother her in no way till I say so or I speak to the Senator." "That's fine! You keep watch over Limpy and I'll keep an eye on Cece and the other guests," she added quickly. "Slopshire wins in a walk!" announced the radio. "Murphy lost in the shuffle." "Van Nuys and Willis neck and neck." "Gillette, after trailing a while, pulls slowly ahead." "Case, of South Dakota, wins by the largest majority ever given a candidate in that state." "Lehman increases his lead." "It's all over with Wilkie; he can never overtake the Senator." CHAPTER XVIII When it was evident that the Senator had indisputably won, when Brother Wilkie had conceded his defeat, they had a fresh bowl of punch and cut the Victory Cake. Aunt Olympia wouldn't allow the girls to be disturbed. It was Cecil Dodd who first suggested it, and that alone was enough to stiffen her determi- nation. "Hilda put them to. bed and they're staying in bed," she said decisively. "We'll save them a piece of cake. Tomorrow, I'll buy them a whole cake if they want it. They're not to be disturbed any more tonight." Presently the guests began drifting away. They had worked hard during the campaign. They were worn to the ragged edge. Now, well dined, well wined, they were ready for bed. Mrs. Mabel was a good deal disconcerted not to lay immediate hand on her squirrel jacket, and muttered a few disagreeable remarks about what you could expect among politicians, drunk with the spoils of victory; But Hilda was sardonically diplomatic about it. "I'll give you a receipt for the coat and see you get it and here I got Mis' Slopshire's mink coat for you which cost the.

I'll see you get it tomorrow and you needn't give me a receipt for Mis' Slopshire's mink 'cause I know you got it so you take the mink and if you don't get your squirrel tomorrow you can keep the mink and Mis' Slopshire can fight it but with the Senator." Not more than a dozen remained, clustered in the library, avidly drinking in the late returns, when Hilda, who had been a good deal upset over the whole matter in her cold, Scandinavian way, saw a cab turn into the drive and pull up to the western veranda. She had the grocery store?" just stuck!" "What'll you take for your option, "Oh, that's so, too! Well, you know Iowa, Auntie. Such a state! The Senator?" said Cecil Dodd, briskly. Aunt Olympia broke into happy grocery store turns out to be the and now he's my tears. She held out her arms to congressman-elec- t Limpy. "My child!" she said. Aunt Olympia was surprised but Limpy started, but the Senator, she rallied. After all, she had known being closer, caught her first. from the beginning that Helen was "We won't let you be lonesome, lost to her. Limpy," he assured her. "You can "Well," she said cheerfully, "that go around with me as much as you bucks up my grocery bill no end. like.
