She plans to rent marry gay, city-loving Denny and return to Manhattan. But the tendency to etay tn her brlovrd old home growl. "Uncle Henry and the Peatheratonea move In. George Cleveland. Eve's calm, practi cal neighbor who loves her, brings his father over one evening to play chess with Peter Featheratone, the pennl leas artist. Eve decides to spcRk u Mr. Cleveland about the Job Denny angling lor. Chapter 25 NEW JOB FOR DENNY A the daring Idea came to Eve. the telephone rang. Everybody start ed except Mr. Cleveland, used to having secretaries answer for him. Judge, that well-trained child, rose from where he lay on his stomach on the hearthrug, went out and came back, reporting. "Denny wants you. Eve." She was in the dark dining room tn a flash. "Denny!" "Eve. darling." Before he could say any more she began to talk excitedly. "Denny, Denny darlUig. old Mr. Cleveland Is tn this very house as ever was. playing chess with Peter, and he isn't an old sinner at all . he's a nice simple kind person and I'm going to tackle him myself about your Job. I know it would be all right. Or let me make an engagement for you to do It "Eve!" his voice was almost sharp. "Eve, promise me you won't, you'll mess it all up. But, Denny, why not if Mitzi can? His voice had the patience of the male confronted with the unwise female "Listen to this, sweet. Mitzi is a splendid business-woman and an old friend of the whole family. She a got it in nana, if you or even I put in an oar it will ruin things. She says so ana sues right. She made mc promise to leave It all to her. It's going grandly. So you promise to leave It alone, If you want to help your nusonnd. Be sweet to old Cleve land and keep your darling mouth tight shut about everything eke. Mitzi says that's the only way to nx it. That Isn't what I called about. Somehlng perfectly magnificent has turned up or it may be perfectly magniiiceuu Listen. Eve held her breath, standing at uie telephone. "Go on Dennv "Something's broken. Hcrndons given me Bill Bollcs' territory. I a ways thought I could make good on the load. If I do. they're likely to make it permanent and enough money for two to live on. I have to start early tomorrow morning. May n't be back for two or three weeks- It depends on whether Bill gets well or not, of course. The excitement In his voice was echoed In Eve's heart. Oh. Denny, grand! And you with your fatal charm, of course, you II ao hi "You adorable angel! Listen, pro mlse to write me every single day? i u long-aistancc If 11 gets too awlul away from you. Don t let anvhnrlv else get you away from me. You're mine, you hear? She relumed to the others fin ally, her cheeks burning, her heart pounding. Denny's excited adoring xu-c m ner ears, oeorge was pre paring to go, remarking that they rose at seven. "He's a lamb," Marylln said yawn ing, as the front door closed behind them. "I hope he comes over a lot. Peler, blessing, will you make me a glass of orange juice and bring It up If there are any oranges? Nighty night. Eve dear. Oh, leave things. Judge can tidy ihem In the morn ing." But Eve. bound by an old custom of her childhood, went about put ting out candles and setting up the fire screen and drawing curtain? about the warm, suddenly hushed old room, loving It. The dream Denny lth her, a laughing presence; per haps soon, he would be reaching eas. Ily with his long boyish arm to the airanooies to snuff the randies ting the fire screen close doing all the little homely heavenly thuigs that ended In their going up the stairs, hand close in hand, to their room together. "Good night, Denny darling." Eve whispered as she went up the suit's. It was a windy April, with the long yellow sprays of forsyUna, the reddening maple buds, the old fasci nation of outdoors that Eve had for gotten In her years of city work. Denny's absence stretched to a month. The daily letters kept Eve happy. Once he telephoned, on top of the world. He was doing wonders. Another time, Denny fashion, he was 'lower than a snake" in a bad terri tory. Eve wrote her own letters and I missed him and loved him. For the rest she was surprised to I find how easily she fell into the rou tine of her new life. The Feather- stones, too. seemed happy enough Peter had the sunny north end of the attic for experimenting with his strange swirls of color. Marylln spent her mornings in bed. and lay dreamily about the house In the evenings in the long chair she had preempted; she wrote a little some times on the pad on her knee. It was poetry, mostly, that was coming. "Am I oveipractlcal and sordid? Eve demanded of George one day at the beginning of May. She had almost forgotten George's moment of desire to marry her; he had completely fallen into the role of family friend. Today he had come over with an armful of rosebushes. He had brought too many; she might like them for the gaps In the rose border through the lawn that led to the orchard, he said. He looked up from where he was ri.lTTINO BUTTERFLIES lly Mary Graham Bonner I haven't stopped to watch but terflies In a long lime," said Willy Nllly. "You're always so busy with your chores," barked Rip. "What a lovely spot this Is." said Willy Nllly. "There are all kinds of butter flies flying around, a variety of wild flower?, I can hear birds in the distance and see some from time to time. Were really seeing the world out-of-doors. Not that we don't live out-of-doors a great deal ourselves. out it is lovely to see how olhcr creatures get along. "Why there is the monarch but terflythat one on the milkweed plant with such fine chestnut brown wings and black touches to the edg es, and a black body. He is a great traveler. He can lly all the wav down soulh In the fall of the year and find his way back here in the summer again. Lot of people used to doubt this until they realized It was true. And there's the tiger swallowtail with quite the look of a tiger about him if you could ever say a tiger look ed like a butterfly or a butierllv like a tiger." I see what you mean." burked flip, smiling the air. 'And he has swallowtails, loo." said Willy Nllly. "Oh. I notice some Jcwcl-wccd flowers over there. They are also called touch-me-nots." "Then Christopher will want to touch that Mower," eatklrd Ton Notch The flowers were oransr in color spotted wilh brownish red. on rath- er long stalks kneeling, putting In bush, and an swered; "One can't be overpractical. You don't seem to me" a little smile twitched the comers of his mouth sordid. What brought that up?" "Marylin and Peter. They'd rather live Irom hand to mouth than 'do potboilers.' And Peter could make a good living at book covers and he knows nobody wants those mathe matical swirls. All they have Is an income they get twice a year from her father's estate. They could do so muc'.i more for Judge and not have to be all the time making those Jokes about being paupers that are so sort of brave and pitiful, and need to have their friends always lending them things, if she'd try to write salable stories and he'd do commer cial work. And yet if you have a talent" George said slowly: "It depends on whether it makes them unfair to other people. I was a bit worried about whether you had money en ough to carry them all summer" "Oh, it isn't for all summer!" Eve let go of the bush she had been holding upright In lis hole for him, to explain "Any time I rent they'll go; and they'll pay me when they get the income, June first, I have sav ings enough to manage 'til then. She stopped herself on the edge of telling him that when Denny came back with his now nearly certain traveling job she'd be married any way. George rose and looked down at her with his kind worried blue eyes "But, child, the real estate agent told me you had given up all Idea of renting; you were going to stay here all summer. "George! She's crazy" Look here, better let me run you aown there. (To be continued) metal. Aluminum ao treated will not corrode and is Insulated against current up to 500 volts. Q.
