"Golstono, Gclstonol" cried the soli
tary porter, as tho train glided Into tho
little country otatlon. "Glad to boo
you, air welcome back" with tho
touch of tho cap and a broad grin di
rected towards tho carriage from which
Loonard, who had flolzed tho strapped
up rugs and thrust his hat on his iiuutl,
was about to spring.
"Bo this is Golstono at last!" said
Dollio, drooping her eyelids nithur
guiltily. "Tlion I supposo I get out
"Hero? I thought you wcro going on
to WInscombol That's tho noxt station.-
"No. They told mo," explained Dol
llo lamoly, "that Winscombo was noar
Golstono. and I stop hero."
Tho lad dropped his own wraps, and
began to load himself with soino of the
bags and boxes belonging to his fellow
traveler. "I will look after your luggago," ho
remarked, whllo handing hur out of
tho carriage. "They don't gtvo ono
ovcr-roUcu tlmo at those small stations.
"What havo you In tho vniiV"
"Two big boxes and a littlo ono, and
n portmanteau," sho answered glibly;
and tho long-leggod young giant, hur
ried away.
"You aro cousin Dora," said a qulot
volco at her sldo. "I know you at onco
by your likeness to aunt Dora."
Dolllo turned and received a cordial
greeting from a young man who Intro,
ducod himsolf as "Cousin Dick."
"Oh, goodness," sho thought, "If tho
fates havo docrccd that I am to bo sac
rificed on tho altar of this impecunious
family, I must say that tho young giant
allotted to mo Is luUuitoly proferablo
to 'Cousin Dlck'l"
Mellaril I lay garth was as unllko his
younger brother as could well bo ima
gined. Ho was umlor-slzod, with a re
Horved expression, and was somowhat
formal and prociso in his inauuor. His
hair and eyes woro both dark, and in
his thin shrewd faco ami Biiiiiru chin
signs of resolution and firmness woro
not wanting. Withal his faco was
pleasant, whllo his volco was unusually
molodlous. Jiut Dolllo decided rapidly
that tho older son had hud to bear tho
brunt of tho sharp Htrugglo with pover
ty. Hor meditations had arrived at
tuis stago when Leonard had rushed
up, saluting his brother with n blank
stnroof amazemontas ho marked his
extraordinarily amicable relations with
Ills traveling-companion.
"Well, havo you forgotten mo during
a threo-mouths' absoucu? How aro you,
old follow? Wo didn't expect you till
to-morrow. Hut I'm glad you managed
to got olf to-day. So you stolo a march
upon mo, and inudo cousin Dora's au
qualntancu llrst, eh? I hopo you point
ed out all tho 'lions' to her on tho way.
Did ho muko a good showman, Dora?
I may call you 'Dora.' I suppose, for I
remember you an a tiny child of two or
three who used to call mo 'Dlcky
blrd'l" Tho blank staru was succeeded by
ono of dismay almost ludicrous in IU
intensity. Ioonard's faco grew crim
son to tho roots of his fair hair. At
last ho stammered out
"I don't know I didn't mean I
novor thought you woro Doral I I
1 "
Ho could got no further. Tho full
horror of the situation Hashed upon
him and half bowllderud him. Ho hud
compromised himself miserably, and
bocomo involved In a scrapu from
which tlioro could bo no extrication.
No oxcuso or explanation could TaJl
him. Indeed what explanation oonld
ho offer? Ho luid told tho truth, and
nothing but tho truth. Could ho make
his oscupo by tho train? No. The train
was gonol
Dick oyod his brother In uncompre
hending surprise Was ho mad? What
could bo tho moaning of his extraordi
nary agitation?
"Do you moan to toll mo," ho In
quired at length, as a portion of tho
truth began to dawn upon him, "that
you two Iravolcd together for a couple
of hours and novur found out each
other's names?"
Still Leonard was silent. Ills agony
of mind was not displayed In a sulU
cieutly ludicrous inauuor to glvo Dollle
tho exquisite amusement thai sho had
anticipated. It was too keen for that.
So sho came gonorously to tho rescue.
"Your brother and 1 did not ask each
other's name; and, curiously enough,
we neither of us let slip anything to
enlighten tho other. Wasn't It odd?
for we talked nineteen to tho dozen."
This was strictly truo, for It was not
lioonnrd's conversation, but his lug
gago lubel which had enlightened her.
Then, going up to tho unhappy young
fellow, sho tooK his passive hand frank
ly, Haying
So you aro cousin loniird nftor all!
I am very glad of itl I should have
boon qulto sorry never to see you again.
And will you teach mo to play tennis?
I can hardly get a ball over tho net,
and you, 1 know, aro an enthusiast."
"I should think ho Is!" chimed in
Dirk, with rueful emphasis. "Ilu em
bitters my existence with his tenuis
during the vacations, for 1 am tho only
available adversary at homo not
counting your cohsiu Dora, whom he
considers uuwoithy of his steel sol
shall be most grateful to you if you
will be my substitute. And now I have
two apologies to oiler. Tho llrst is for
the said Dora, who Is laid up with a
severe eold and could not oomo to meet
you; the second is for myself. One of
my parishioners who lives live miles
away met me on my way to the station,
and "begged mo to go at onco to see his
son, who Is, 1 fear, dying; so you must
excuse my saying good-by for tho pres
ent. A clergyman's time, you know,
is not his own, and a curate s, I sup
pose, Is still less so."
His smile was one that made his faco
wondertully bright and animated, and
Dollle looked alter him as he walked
away quickly, leaving a parting injunc
tion with Leonard to look w ell after
her and see that her luggage was all
igui. u was a very mini ami suimiiuhi
voice, wltn an almost cniiiiisn ucuioi
in It. that said
"1 Ixilioui your boxes aro all In the
trap, Miss Nugent. It is waiting tit the
gate."
Sho looked up quickly as they walked
down the nlattorm together.
" 'Miss Nugent,' Leonard! I am cou
sin Dollle."
He made no reply, but walked on.liij
neck bent in a thoroughly melancholy
and dejected manner, his eyes shun
nlng her glance. Hut this nmnamvro
only brought his tall head down a little
closer to her own. laying her hand on
his arm. she looked up with a friendly
littlo smile, saying decisively
. "Now, liOouard. 1 cannot havo vou
ioor. into tnati xou must just rorget
that you told me anything. And you
need not bo nfrald of being chaiiedJ
about It; for, If you do not tell any
body, neither will I, and, if wo never
mention it, wo shall soon forget it our
Belves." "Hut you must think mo such a fool,
nnd such a coxcombl groaned ropent
nut Leonard, reachlngtlio climax in a
despairing burst of self-contempt.
"No, I don't! I don't think ono bit
tho worse of you. You told mo so
plainly your opinion on tho Bubject.
and how much you disliked tho thought
of what your peoplo wished to do, that
1 think all tho bolter of you for it. You
seo you forco mo to pay you compli
monts, you look so miserable. I do like
you very muchl I am truly glad that
you aro really my cousin after nil!"
"It's very good of you to say so," he
rosponUod gratefully, though still rath
er dismally; "but I shall novcr forgive
inysolf. And I know I'm "
''Ilushl" sho interjected peremptorily.
"Not a word more! We've agreed to
forget all that. What a pretty horse
that is! Is it yours?"
"No. That Is tho only hack to be
hired in Golstono. Wo have just one
horse, and it is a pony."
A small gli'iim of uunshino lighted up
his face as hor clear sweet laugh rang
through tho air. Ho continued, as ho
handed her into the ramshacklo old
Tchlclo
"Yes that pony is amald-of-all-work.
Sho works on tho farms and carts
Bho's carting gravel to-day and takes
as many to church as will flt In tho
dog-cart. Aro you fond of horses, Miss
Nugont Dora?'
"'Dolllo,' you mean sho corrected.
"Yes, I lovo horses, nnd I nm suro you
dol"
Onco launched on this congonlnl
topic, tho conversation flowed on brisk
ly, and prosontly they or nt least tho
chief culprit, who was in gonoral n
rockloss Bcattcrbraln, and who was not
given to troubling himsolf as to tho re
sults of his rash speeches had appar
ently forgotten all about tho unlucky
revelation of an hour boforo. In fact,
Dolllo chatted so charmingly and easi
ly that no ono could blamo him for for
getting everything olso in tho ploasuro
of listening to her, and, as ho hud no
natural shyness to provent his Improv
ing tho occasion, they became oxcellont
friends boforo arriving at Golstono
Houso.
"Hero wo nrol" cried ijonanl nt last,
in nn almost regretful tono. "How fast
this horso has brought usl"
Dolllo did not hear this remark. Her
companion's remorse soon softened
down and his montal equilibrium re
stored, ho did not interest her much.
Her attention was at present concen
trated upon thosmnll Ivy-covered houso
in which sho was to spend tho noxt
fortnight. Tho horso wiieolcd round
to tho doorsteps. Tho hall door stood
wide open, but tho doorway was empty.
Leonard remarkoU npologetlcully
"This looks a queer kind of welcome;
but ono cannot expect anything hotter
from a houso full of invalids."
"1'ray do not npologlsel I was so
orry to hoar tliat your slstor was ill.
And, as for a welcome, why, you must
do duty for alll"
"1 will do my best," said Leonard
meokly. innocently wondering tho
whllo if she meant film to embraco her
us his mother would havo douo.
Hut, ere ho had como to a decision
upon this knotty point, a door was vio
lently Hung open, and, with a kind of
wild Indian war-whoop, four children
rushed tumultuously into the hall. If
Leonard had bostowed as warm a wel
como us that which thoy inflicted on
tho nowly-arrived cousin, ho would
havo been vonturcsomu indeed. A still
wilder shriek rent tho nlr its Leonard
followed her In, and a still more rapt
urous greeting was bestowed on him.
"I'd no Idea," panted Dollle, "that
you had such u lot of small brothers
and slstersl"
"Only four," ho assured hor lnughlng
ingly "a couple of each. Hut I vo no
doubt you thought theio wero more of
them. If 1 had not known them pretty
intimately, 1 should have judged from
that yell Unit there wero twenty, at
least
"Well, I cortalnly thought thero wero
about eight! Now" turning to tho
rioters "lot mo seo If 1 can toll you
your names. This Is Maud, mid this Is
May" touching in turn the two fair
haired denuiro-looklng girls, who ap
pealed fallacious appearance! as If
they woro modols of propriety.
"Wrong, wrong!" was tho reply, ac
companied by a shriek of delight that
Bout Dollle's llngors to her oars. Thou
"I'm Maud" and "I'm May," thoy an
nounced. "Now guess which tho others
arol"
When she chose, Dolllo accomodated
herself readily to the mood of thoso
ni-miiwl linr. I iiiiLlnir with it sinlln lit
tho happy sunburnt faces of tho two'
youngsters wuo urwiiiut'sniy uwiiui'u
tier decision, sho atleeted withau nlr of
profound deliberation, then announc
ed, as the result of her scrutiny, "Jack
the pickle, and Jim the studious boy."
Tho bronzed urchin llrst indicated
burst into an tippieulntlvo roar of
laughter, while Jim tho student shrank
buck a littlo abashed.
"How did you know," demanded the
former, "which was me and which was
him, for I'm tho tallest, though he's
tho eldest?"
"Yes how did you know?" echoed
Leonard, who trom his lofty height had
looked down with au amused air upon
this little scone.
"Shall I tell you?" sho rejoined sau
cily. "Well, I had heard boforo of tho
l'icklo and the Student, and 1 reeog
niscd them at onco In this way. Jim is
so like his brother Dlek tho student;
and Jack Well, ho is tho very
Imago of his brother Leonard Ifib bTg
I'iekle." , ,
The look and tone wero Irresistible
and iAHinard's "Ho, ho, hoi" rang
through the hall none the less loudly
that tho joke told against himself.
"l)o you speak from hearsay or ex
perience?" ho inquired audaciously.
Hut, before Dollle. could reply, sho
heard a gentle-pitched voice.
-1 on seem very merry out nero. in
you not come in and see mamma? i ou
are mv namesake, cousin Dora, I sup
pose?' The mild, softly-spoken words pro
ceeded from the mouth of n fair quiet
girl, another edition of Jim and Dick,
so tar as features went, tamed down
and sobered by household cares Into n
very demure little maiden. She went
on softly, in answer to Dollle's Inquir
ies "Yes, thank you, my cold Is n littlo
better, so I made un effort to come
down and seo you. Maminn, this is
Dollle."
-Another edition still." thought Dol-
iie, as sno recoived a gentle Kiss trom
a slight delicate-looking lady who
might havo been takon for Dora's elder
sister. "So you aro tho matchmakcrl"
sho remarked mentally. "You hardly
look tho character. Still you Beora very
kind, and I mean to bo very fond of
you, mv dear aunt and f uturo mothcr-ln-lawr
,
Truly It was a luxurious way to spend
n summer afternoon I Lazily recum
bent on the grass, with a soft shawl un
der her head and an inviting-looking
novel at her elbow, basked Dolllo.
Dora, quiet and penslvo, sat on a rug
by hor sldo, stlching away nt soino fancy-work.
Leonard was seated tailor
wiso at his cousin's feof. In his big
brown hand lay a spoon-shaped cabbage-leaf
filled with htigo tomptlngly
cool strawberries, to which Dollle
holpcd hersolf daintily from tlmo to
time. Tennis bats and balls lay strown
about whore they had been tossed care
lessly when Dick for Dick and Dora
wero Bomotimcs inveigled by master
and pupli into joining tho game had
given up at the end or tho first set, de
claring that he could play no longer;
ho must really go nnd
"Write a Bormon?" suggested Dolllo
wickedly.
"Yes wrlto a sermon. That excuso
will serve as well as any othor." And
so ho departed.
After that Dora doclarod that sho too
ought to play no longor, and expressed
her Intontlon of fetching hor work and
performing tho duties of umpire to the
other two this was no sinocuro, for
Dolllo cheated unblushingly.
Uut, whon Dora reappeared, after a
consluorablo lapso of time, sho found
tho quondam antagonists most amica
bly employed, for Leonard was folding
tho grout carriago-rug to muko a com
fortablo loungo for his cousin, who
speedily abandoned it in favor of tho
gross; after which sho promptly des
patched him to tho strawberry-beds in
search for refreshment.
"We found It too warm to play any
more." sho explained; "but it's so de
lightful here in tho sun that I mean to
stay. You can work whllo I read, you
know, and you will bo saved tho trou
bio of nn umpire and Leonard docs
contradict bo, doesn't ho? Ho'a gono
to get some fruit now I'm so terribly
thirsty."
"Ho has? That's right," roturnod
Dora bonlgnly. "It Is about tho only
luxury that wo possess now; so I hopo
you will muko the host of It."
"Thank you, Dora. You know wo
novor get any but bought fruit in town;
nnd that does not tasto tho samo, some
how." "Oh, no!" sho assontod blandly. "I
really don't know how you can boar tho
town. Would you not llko to llvo al
ways lu tho country?"
"Indeed I should! It would bo de
lightfultoo delightful over to come to
pass, I fearl"
A very unsuspiciously frank roply;
and Dora sinilod with a satisfied air.
Uut her Muchhivollau littlo namesako
had, through this incautious fcoler,
divined that Dora also was privy to tho
Bchemo concocted by tho ucnil of tho
houso against hor guest's peuco of
mind; and tho innocent acquiescence
wus strongly at variance with tho un
dercurrent of thought In Dollle's mind.
"So you too, my demuro littlo cousin,
uro on matrimonial thoughts intent!
Uut don't bo too confident: you will
find that u London" "hello;' sho was
about to say, but had tho gruco to sub
stitute anothor tormVa London Aa6f
Xuci Is more than n match for a littlo
country girl and her big hobblodohoy
of n brothor. How dollclous thoy look!"
This exclamation wus uttoreu aloud,
and nddrosscd to Leonard, who felt
himself inoro than repaid for his trou
bio nnd fntlguo by tho smilo that ac
companied it.
"Taste thoml" wus his laconic ro
mark. "How many did you eat whllo you
were gathering them?" sho demanded
severely, after n time.
"Not one not a slnglo ono!" was tho
emphatic response.
"Heally I did not think there existed
tho schoolboy capable of resisting such
a temptation!" said Dolllo cruelly.
Ho was silent; and Bho added gra
ciously "Then you may havo some of thoso
for a roward."
In her heart sho was marvelling that
ho did nqt inform hor that ho was now
a man at college, no longer a schoolboy,
nnd consequently nblo to resist tho al
lurement that to such would bo over
powering. Uut not for all the world
would Leonard have contradicted his
tormentor; that would luwo boon bad
niiinners, and bad policy too, us ho hud
learned by experience.
At this juncture Dora roso, suddenly
discovering that tho light wns too
strong for nor to work any moro out of
doors, and beat ti retreat to tho houso.
Dolllo, who had transferred tho cab-bago-loaf
to her own shell-like palm,
was busily ongaged in selecting tho
biggest and ripest struwberrles where
with to refresh her devoted sluvo. Sho
merely glanced at tho retreating figure,
then smiled slightly.
"What terribly elaborato and alas,
transparuut muehiuutloiis are yours,
my near Dora!" sho reilected. "It
would bo humiliating, if it wero not so
amusing, to bo treated in this way, and
lett tett-U'tett with Muster lo, In order
to glvo him a chance of carrying tho
fortress by stoi in."
She looked keenly uud rather quizzi
cally at her cousin, to seo if ho also hud
fathomed the depths of this masterly
piece of strategy, for a well-ordered
retreat is n crucial test of good gener
alship. , ,
Tor a moment he did not raise his
eyes. When ho did so nt last, and
found her mischievous orbs fixed on
his faco, ho looked conscious uud
slightly embarrassed. Slnco Dollle's
arrival, I?o hud acquired an uncom
fortable habit of blusutiig and looking
umleuiuulv sheepish, especially in the
presence of his mother or sister. It
was u change uud Dolllo commented
upon it as such. For sho hud greatly
admired his nonchalant ease and per
tectly natural unconsciousness in con
versing with her on their first rencon
ti; and to their first luckless conversa
tion sho ascribed this change.
"l'oor fellow! Kver slnco I led hlra
on in sueh a shameful way to com
mit himself, and enticed him to put his
foot In It, ho bus never been quite him
self!" In proof of this, Leonard's conscious
look deepened into a vivid and painful
blush. Ills first remark was not one
that Dora would havo anticipated in
leaving the cousins tcfc-a-M; for,
though it did savor of a compliment, It
was not ono of tho usual kind.
"I am glad you aro so sensible, he
mild, with a deen-drawu siah. watch
ing me progress or a luscious straw
berry to her sweet rlpo lipa.
"Am I particularly sensible? How
have you found It out? Why nro you
glad?'
"Yea, you are uncommonly sensible;
nnd I have found it out by your not
I mean that Is most girls would have
refused to speak to mo. or to have any-"
thing moro to do with 'mo, after my
Idiotic behavior. Thoy would have
told my mother that' they had found
her out, and got me into a row by toll
ing of my blundering stupidity; and
thoy would always havo been . Buspect
Ing mo of designs yes, designs ho,
ho, hoi" lie broke into his usual hearty,
unrestrained laugh at tho absurdi
ty of tho idea; but his catcchlst was not
yet satisfied.
"You havo not answered all my ques
tions yet," sho pursued morcllessly.
"Why aro you glad?"
"Because becauso," ho stammcrod
out "well, becauso I llko to bo with
you. xou are qulto different, you see,
and not like most girls."
l'oor simplo Leonard! Ho had not
learnt yot what It means when a young
man singles out some "bright particu
lar star," ns bolng unllko other stars;
but Dolllo had; and she gavo him a
startled glanco, and mado no answer.

nntv win Hint vnn did not lumn un and

havo dono, when Dora left us, espe
cially If they had suspected mo of 'do

ly, till his hair fell In most picturcsquo
confusion, almost hiding his brown eyes.
"lou seo L know an aoout it," no con
tinued, tossing back his hair, "and
that would havo boon particularly an
noying when I was on tho point of bo

"Oh, so It was tho strawberries you
cured about chlelly, not "
Dolllo chocked herself after framing
so much of this artful question. Leo
nurd fell Innocontly Into tho trnp.
"Not n bit of ltl I didn't euro for
strawhorrios much; but I Hkod thom
becauso you gavo thom to mo. Upon
my honor, that was tho rcasonl Don't
think I'm such n groedy pig, plcaso,
Dolllo. Why, I only cot thom as an
excuso for staying with you a littlo

"Tlioro now," crlod Dolllo wlckodly,
in reproachful ucconts "tlioro you
acknowlodgo yourself thnt you had fdo

face crimsoned, thon paled.
"Dolllo," ho gasped, lu a choking
voice, "you don't bellovo, you can't bo
liovo that I would over do anything dis
honorable!" Dolllo smiled and shook her head
slightly. This simple young giant,
with his frank boyish faco, his freedom
from conventional trammels, his sud
den bursts of feeling, was beginning to
interest hor moro deeply than sho could
havo supposed possible.
"What a man you will mnko somo
day!" was her next thought, as sho
coolly surveyed him from under tho
broad leaf of her garden-hut, her soft
cheeks Hushing, her eyes reflecting tho
excitement that flamed in his. "Of tho
half-dozen Inulon suitors I havo been
on tho verge of accepting, thero was
not ono with half your manliness uud
pride."
"Dollle," ho went on passlonutoly,
"do you think I would ovor toll a down

"Then listen to me. Dollio, I lovo

chanco of winning you. If I over hud
any, I throw it all away on tho first
day I saw you. Uut 1 must tell you
and ask you to believe that what I
laughed about lias happened to mo It
crept on mo quite unconsciously." Ho
threw up his bands with utmost n trag
ic air and sprang to ids feet. "1 never
sought it," no cried fiercely; "and now
1 am miserable for lue! Dolllo, say
'No' quleklv, and seal my futel 1 de

Uut Uoli.u did not reply; and he
turned tiwnv with u wild gesture of im
patience, and Ktiodowlih long swift
steps up uud down tho littlo lawn.
Tlion. coming buck, hu threw himself
down at her icet, nnd Huld gently for
a glance tmd sliowu hlin that tho lus
trous dark eyes wero filled with tears
"Dolllo, dear Dollle, did I frighten

Tell mo that 1 havo no chanco and I

ilou'i vou, Dolue. that it all came so
suddenly, so terribly maidenly, that I
could not help it?"
Her hand wus playing nervously with
tho snort clipped grass at her side. He
biooped and raised it roveronwy, gaz
ing into her lace with a mourutiilprido
ami waiting numbly for his answer. It
came ut la.it. Looking up with a Hash
ot her old coqueti) . ..u said
"I cannot do its jou asu; but, Leo, if

His side. "Listen to me! I must believe

A lamo and unsatisfactory conclu

minutes afterwards read a fuller as
surance Uian this in the sweet eyes up
raised to his, as ho took the vanquished
"woman of the world" In his strong
