After ten yean of fried bacon and alt pork the pendulum swung to its opposite extreme for David Chad wick.

He's sick of the French stuff tbe hotels all have, and there Is no one to give him what he wants because be does not know where to look for It. We'll have him over hen to dinner, aud well, he'll want to come again." Mrs. Horton bad nodded approvingly lpon her well preserved daughter, and io the campaign was begun.

He did not always want steaks and roasts, and the knowledge that there were good things on tbe bill which be could not translate only added to bis dbtsntlafactlon. It was after an especially trying meal at tbe hotel tbat Dave armed himself with a box of violets and sal lied forth to propose lo Nell. He had slowly come to the conclusion tbat Nell wss no longer as young as she pretended to he. but she offered escape from the hotel, and be was sick ot tne place-sick of Its cuisine.

It was a certain sign tbat Nell was not borne, else she would have rushed to tbe door with ostentatious welcome. This little maid he decidedly approved of.

"Cau I get you anything before I gor she asked solicitously. "The morulug paper Is upstairs. I can get It In a moment" "I'd rather talk." said Cbadwlck comfortably. He waa hungry for con genial companionship, and tbe little maid was very different from Nell. Sometimes Dave grew a little tired of Nell and ber bold flattery. "I can't atop." cried the girt. "It la baking day. and I bave tbe oven full." "Wben Mias Horton does all the cuoklugr reminded Cbadwlck. "I absll have to Investigate." He bad been so frequent a caller that he knew from which door Nell was accustomed to put In an appearance, her sleeves rolled up and an adorable dab ot Hour on her saucy chin. Ig noring the frightened protests of the little maid, he pushed hla way Into the kitchen. n ber embarrassment Dora had for gotten that Nell had claimed the cook ery for her own and that upon this talent she hsd counted for tbe winning of Cbadwlck. Now that the cat waa out of the bag tbe probabilities were tbat Nell would turn her cousin Into the street. She Inherited a shrewish temper from her mother, and Dora knew tbat the two women would be Implacable. Cbadwlck sniffed tbe spicy odors and turned to the girL "Ho you are the fairy ot the kitch en?" he said. "Nell does sll the work. I just watch tbe things wben sbe goes down town," denied Dora hastily. Cbadwlck put one finger under tbe dimpled chin and raised tbe face that be might look straight Into the gray eyea. "Look me straight In tbe face and say tbat again," he commanded. The long laahea fell over the troubled eyea aa Dora struggled to make her de uial convincing. Cbadwlck laughed. "Look here," he said aa he released her chin. "I came out here today to ask the hand of the woman who had made me comfortable. It hi not that 1 cared so much about what I had to eat It Is not thst I can get a dinner here without having to fight three waiters and tbe maitre d'botel. That wasn't what appealed to me. though they do say that the way to a man's heart la through hla stomach. Tbat sounds funny, but really a man doesn't marry Just a cook. "I wanted tbe woman who of all the million people In this big town cared enough for old friendship to come and rescue me from tbe maitre and tne menu. It wasn't Just the Idea of din ner, hut the home. I want a borne of my own. and I wanted ber to run It for me. But it seems tbat she did not tell the truth about the cooking. guess tbe rest of It is pretty much of the same piece of gooda, and It won't stand tbe wash. It's you I want, little woman, not because you can cook I don't know Just what It is, but I want you. You slip on your bat. and we can run down to city hall and get a license and a wedding certificate In no time at all." "Why. you don't even kuow my name!" cried tbe startled girl. "I can guess." was the prompt reply. "I'm not so forgetful of tbe man who gave me my first atart as not to be sble to trace his likeness In Cleou Blake's daughter. Tbey told tne that they did not kuow where yna were, and today when I recognized you It was that wbicb first suggested the falsehoods they have been telling and led me to Investigate the kitchen.

Something in his tones appealed to tbe girl, and sbe looked Into tbe eager eyea tbat searched her blushing face. Hhe had been sorry for Cbadwlck. and pity Is akin to love.
