One evening, soon after dinner. Hiram Bnckworth decided that he mart withdraw to bis room to preiwre hla sermon for the following Sunday, and Marjory thougot she would go upstairs and manicure her nails But Ginger was not to be distracted by mere plana for the future. She aaw them both upstairs, saw the door of her father’s mom closed behind Hiram Buckworth* rigid back, saw Miriam ensconced or the foot of her bed with files, orange wood sticks and buffers. Then she went to (be studio with a sigh o f relief. There she settled down to a complete balancing o f her ac counts. She counted the dimes In the doll’s trunk. She made careful entries In her bnge ledger. Her waste basket she found full to overflowing of discarded letters, little white angels, which had accompanied the contributions to >be home. Ginger was systematic and orderly. These angels were to be burned. So with waste basket In one band, lantern In the other, she made her way carefully over the narrow beams, and down the wabbly ladder. She noted, comfortably, that the two doors remained closed as she had left them, and a pleasantly toothing stillness pervaded the house. Softly happily, with waste basket and Ian tern, she slipped around the curve o f tbs circular staircase and stopped. She stopped aghast, electrified, spell bound. For beneath her, before her very eyes, there lay revealed a scene whose unutterable disgustingness was beyond her power o f description. Tbs wide living room was lighted, dimly lighted, by one small corner reading lamp, and In the shadowy, semi darkness. Ginger raw two figures — her sister. Marjory, and Hiram Bnckworth—whom she bad left be hind their seperate closed door» not twenty minutes previous By what strange Intultlveness each had dis covered. b“ !itnd those herring doors, that the other waa descending to the common meeting ground o f tbs living room below. Ginger never knew—nor even which bad made the Initial move. Bnt one fact was evident— there they were. One o f Hiram's arms waa about her alater’a shoulders, and hla free hand waa fondling very gently, very caresa- lngly, the soft gold o f her hair. Mar jo ry herself, plainly not to be out distanced In madness, was raising her soft white fingers to hla cheek, his Ups. hla eyes Ginger's Irrepressible gasp startled them. 1 hey looked np at her. gravely. They did not move. “ Excuse me." Ginger’s voice was cold and subdued, very small. “I thought you were In different places— doing other th in g s" She turned short around upon the stairs, and went np to the attic. In the studio she sat herself down, heav ily. and fell to deep consideration. 8hs saw clearly that the situation waa critical. M arjory waa hopeless She had ogled the grocery clerk. She bad almost held hands with Tub Andrews and the ukulele. She even practiced her blandishments on Eddy Inckson. who had the fortitude to withstand her wiles.

Hiram Bnckworth. although anything hut • romantic figure, was s nice chap. And the shocked look on hla face, the strange, hart, stricken look, bad touched her heart. He had looked sorry. Ginger did not enjoy seeing people look sorry, not even disgusting pretenders who pawed and held bands Breakfast, usually such a gay and cheery meal, proved an awkward oc casion. Hiram Buckworth seemed every Inch a minister, unsmiling, grave, and stiffly formal. He talked exclusively to Miss Jenkins, and not very entertainingly. He did oot look at Marjory, who had ;«m e In a little late with her usual bright morning radiance. But her radiance was o f short duration. paling sw iftly to startled, wide-eyed wondering.

Not even the coming of the postman, with sixteen letters for H Tolliver, made her really happy. He fished two sm-ill packages from bis bog and banded them to her. “ I see you re getting some more of those samples." he added cLeerfully. “ Those are for the twins," she so Sunday, ordinarily such a pleasure ably hurried day In the parsonage, was no less than a dreary ordeal Marjory appeared very late for her breakfast She need not have ap peered at e lt for she ere nothing.

Eddy Jackson came tn the car to take them to Pay Dirt and although lllram tried ti be ex- cused from the party there v as no evading Eddy s friendly Insistent-«. But while there was great gaiety at Pay Dirt, the arrival o f the car from the parsonage htought a sudden alnmp in their high spirits Alexander Murdock was there, and Ginger’s wrath, long slumbering, routed Itself opoo his unoffending head. Why should he spend all ot hla spare time at Pay Dirt? What had a n ere can grocer to do with the conduct o f ag rlcultnreJ And why. If mere friend ship for Eddy attracted him thither, did he so openly Ignore his frlCDd In hla ardtnt attentiveness to M iriam ! And why, for thas matter, should the so-sensit-le Miriam, be suddenly thus gay and shining? “ W hat's the matter «rtth averybodj anyhow?" demanded E idy crossly "T h a t’s some grouch of s preacher.

The one bright moment In .he after noon for Ginger waa when Alexander announced that be was leaving the next day for the farther West. “ W alking?" she Inquired coldly. “ Ob, no. Business has been quite good. I shull be able to ride quite a little distance before I connect up with another Orange and Black." “ Sort of a can tour." “ Something o f the son. yes." But If the parsonage group had little to contribute to the day's enjoyment. It was more than rolhpensnied by the glad hilarity of the others Mr. Tol liver laughed like a boy at the bald and ribald Jokes o f the can grocer. M ist Jenkins and Mrs Jackson ex changed giggling reminiscences of their own untrammeled youth.
