More you and he have a chance to

and she proceeded with tho inrita
tion that had now become alithtly
mechanical.
Aa Tom had hoped, the appeal to
duty won and by th time they had
reached a large flower bed under
Mr. Shaushneseya bedroom window,
the western manager had a creed ai
a sound business proposition to
stay. The another idea struck her.
"Mr. Statlander," she began, 'Tre

that little room, since we've had this
terrific heat wave. Wouldn't you
like to move over to tho nursery for

"It will.' interrupted Linda darkly.
'In that case I will take advantage
of your offer and thank you very
much."

and with no very good grace he
hin brond back wiieculntively.
Thank you!" She gnve him her
most enchanting smile as he rose.
"I didn't want to lose thHt beauty.
Are you fond of flowers, Mr. Stat
lander?" "Not at all," answered her relnc
tnnt helper uncompromisingly. 4,A
garden is altogether too wasteful of
time and energy end money." He
nodded in the direction of a denim
clad figure working along the bonier
toward the adjoining property. "That
man. for instance. Do you pay him
to spend hia entire time puttering
around this place?"
"Heaven!"!" thought Linda. 'the
questions have begun again!" But
she answered demurely: "That's Wil
lum our community gardener. He
works for me part of every day
when he remembers to come. But if
we could afford it, I'd certainly have
a full time man. I could keep him
busy."
"Busy !" Mr. Statlander suddenly
slapped at the back of his neck
where a mosquito had lodged. "A
full-grown man busy every day !"
His annoyance with the mosquito
added unusual severity to his tone.
"How many servants did you say
you need to keep up this place. Mrs.
Averill?"
"I didn't say. that I remember,"
answered Linda meekly. "But I
have two maids all the time and a
nurse for the bnby and a woman
who comes in to help when we need
her I send the laundry out and a
part-time gardener "
"I see. And what "
The next question was unexpectedly
interrupted. From the windows
nbove them appeared a tousled head
and fihnughnsesey, evidently just
aroused, blandly greeted his hostess.
"Good mornin' to you, Mrs. Aver
ill. And would yo be having a good
opportunity for a bripht stable-boy,
or likely a chauffeur, and what
would le' the wages of the same?"
Linda's uncontrollable peal of
laughter was quickly cheeked. Look
ing toward the house she saw her
husband beckoning them back.
"Bo right there! Breakfast's
rendy. Mr. Statlander. I'll carry the
basket back. Thanks ever so much
for holding it for tne. Hid you get
your hands dirty? Do you want to

No. thank you . . . But Rtat

BOYS IN MANHOLE

Moore's Brook under the street. The
