A reapleiitU'iit mid March morning;
overhead a turtiuols sky. actvaa which
lhallopa of iearl raced In radiant t

t.r.u.1 .tmif.a of the realdenra district
were murmuroualy lmrHrtant, each
having harrnrnMl aecrvta or to coming
summer to conlMa.
Uertraut Hale approached a charm
ing residence aet back from the street.
It was a new house, all gablea and gar
goylee and Jutting windows and vart
hued ahlnglea. The windows guttered
goldenly In the morning sunshine.
"Mr. Hale!"
A shadow crossed tha broad, kindly
face of tha Swedish maid who opened
the door to him.

She faltered. It waa easy enough to
utter the falsehood sanctioned by con

who had alwaya been so gay. ao cour

all the world perforce must love, ahe
fonnd It Impossible to speak the sen

Lena." lie extended a aquar parcel
aa he spoke. "There art panatea In It
ranslea, you know, stand for kind
thoughts."
"I will try." I vena assured him, with
friendly willingness. "Come Into the
hall-the parlor."
"No; I'll wait here," young lisle de
cided and sat down on tue ledge of the
porch.
Ruth Seidon looked up from her desk.
"Come!" she called.

snowy aprou, and a bit of a cap ad

"Mr. Hale," she said coaxlngly, "he
says will you come down to see him
Just one little minute."
Ruth Seklon was not a beauty, al
though Bertram Hale would have dis
puted this assertion. Hut she wss a
mighty attractive looking girl. The
kimono of silvery silk which she wore,
with Its shell pink lining and loosely
knotted, gold fringed girdle, was Just
the thing to bring out the fresh tints
of her nklii and the clear luster of her
blue, black lathed eyes.
"Take It buck, InaT' sho com
manded. "Say to Mr. Hale that I can
not receive him. Tell him that he will
be handed a-a package from me this
afternoon,"
Lena knew well what that package
would contain, for on the desk were
letters-many letters. On the shelf
over the desk a photograph frame still
stood, but the handsome face that used
to smile forth from It so sunnily was
there no longer. A tiny leather box
topped the letters. Lena could not be
positive what the box contained, but
ahe did notice that no ring with one
white flaming stone sparkled, aa for
merly, on the band of her young mis
tress. "He does look that sad, mlssl" Lena
remarked, lingering. "I-I think may
be he la sick," she Insinuated.
Ruth flushed and her Hps parted ir
resolutely. The next instant sbe turn
ed back to her desk.
"Take him batk the flowers-I sup
pose they are flowars and the mes
sage at once!"
Lena's sigh seemed to be drawn from
the very solos of her low shoes, but
she went away an obedient laggard,
Tlale saw her descending and stood up.
"Never mind, Lena!" he said gently.
"Leave the flowers on the hail table.
Bhe may change ber mind. And here's
something to buy a pair of gloves for
your trouble."
"Thank you, sir. I hope so, sir.
Young folks do make mistakes aome
times!" Tie walked down the path and off un
the avenue. The maid went back to
ner work. And Ruth, the package
with all her love letters and little love
tokens tied neatly up and ready to re
turn, aat looking with a feeling of

A quick shriek startled her. It came
from Mow slslrs. It was such a chok

be uttered by one suddenly assailed -stabbed!

down the stair.

When ah had quieted tha suffering
creature, Ruth left her and went back
to ber desk. Sbe looked at the pack
age, at the frame from wbk-b the pk
tare waa absent It seemed as though
this news that bad been sent from
over the se bad come directly to her.
What If the message had been of Her
tram? Would sbe be angry now, re
sentful? Hit by bit ahe went over
their little dissension. Wss it worth
a heartache when all waa satd? Could
sbe ever love any other as she loved
him? Her heart gave prompt reply.
Mechanically she untied the pscksge
and replaced the picture In the frame,
Hip letters In the drawer, the other
treasures each In Its accustomed place.
Theu sha opened the tiny box snd took
out a ting that sparkled like a stsr of
promise and sllpiied It on her finger.
"For he vas de only vun for tne!"
"IW Lena!" said the girl, who, with
shining eyes and roue red cheeks, went
dowustalrs to the telephone. On the
way she paused to open the little bol
on the ball table and to fasten the pan
sles over her heart.
Polite Ceaeeraallaa.
In the days when conversation rank

with care exception might have been
tnken to Miss Janet Miller's sppllca
tlun of the word. Miss Miller, howev
er, had her own Ideas as to what con
stituted conversstlon In Bramblevllle.
Miss Miller was entertaining the
sewing circle on the day when Mm.
(iregory, a summer resident, made her
first appearance as a helpful member,
and Miss Miller greeted her with great
cordiality.
"You've come a mite late," she said
cheerfully, "but that's no matter. The
folks are In the full tide of conversa
tion, two groups of 'em, you see, snd
I'll Introduce yoo round soon ss you
choose which you'd rather Join and I
can hand you your work. I clrc'lsts
from one group to the other.
"Those six ladles over In the bay
window are hemming, and their sub
ject o' conversation Just now Is dish
mops. Those out In the back room are
cutting and hosting, and they ore con
versing about gas stoves. So you Just
name your choice, either one."
