Oh, I see now, that it was just foolish pride that made me unwilling to ride during de cent hours. Whut a dunce I was as usual." He looked at her curiously. This was beyond his comprehension. She ex plained and then was silent a while. "Falry'll have to got breakfast, and she always gets father's eggs too hard." Silence again. "Maybe pnpa'U worry. But then, they know by this time that something always does hap pen to me, so they'll be prepared." She turned gravely to the young man beside her. lie was looking down at her, too. And as their eyes met, and clung for an instant, a slow, dark color rose in his face. Prudence felt a curious breathlessness caused by her hurting ankle, undoubtedly. "My name is Prudence Starr I am the Methodist minister's oldest daugh ter." "And my name Is Jerrold Hurnier." lie was looking away into the hickory grove now. "My home is in Des Moines." "Oh, Des Molues is quite a city, Isn't it? I've heard quite a lot about it You might tell me about Des Moines. Is it very nice? Are there lots of rich people there? Of course, I do not really core any more about rich people than the others, but it al ways makes a city seem grand to have a lot of rich citizens, I think. Don't you?" So he told her about Des Moines, and Prudence lay with her eyes hnlf closed, listening, and wondering why there was more music In his voice than In most voices. Her ankle did not hurt very badly. She did not mind it at all. In fact, she never gave it a thought. From beneath her lids, she kept her eyes fastened on Jerrold Harmer's long brown hands, clasped loosely about his knees. And when ever she could, she looked up Into his face. And always there was that cu rious catching in her breath, and she looked away again, quickly, feeling that to look too long was dangerous. "I have talked my share now," ho was saying, "tell me all about your self, and the parsonage, and your fam ily. And who is Fairy? And do you attend the college at Mount Mark? You look like a college girl." "Oh, I am not," said Prudence, re luctant to make tho admission for the first time in her life. "I nm too stupid to be a colleco girl. I left high school iive years ago and have been keeping house for my father and sisters since then. I urn twenty years old. How old are you?" "I am twenty-seven." and he smiled. "Jerrold Hartner," she said slowly and very musically. "It is such a nice name. Do your friends, call you Jerry?" "The boys at. school called me Itol dle, and sometimes Hamtnie. But my mother always railed me Jerry. She Isn't living now, either. You call me Jerry, "will you '!" "Yes, I will, "out it won't be proper. But that never makes any difference to me, except when !t might shock the members. You want u;e to call you Jerry, don't you?" "Yes, I do. And when we are better acquainted, will you let me call you Prudence?" "Cull me that now. I can't be too particular, you see, when I am lying on your coat and pillowed with your belongings. You might get cross, and take them away from me. Did you go to college?" "Yes, to Harvard, but I was not much of a student. Then I knocked around a while, looking at the world, and two years ago I went home to Des Moines. I havu been there ever since except for littio runs once In a while." Prudence cighed. "My sister Fairy is going to college now. She's very clover oh, very. You'll like her, I am sure much better than you d& me, of course." Prudence was strungely downcast. "I am sure I .-on't," said Jerrold Harmei with unnecessary vehemence. "I don't care a thing for college girls. I like home girls." Jerrold flipped over abruptly, and lay on the grass, his face on his arms turned toward her face. They were quiet for a while, but tbeJjr glances were clinging. , "Jld you play football at college? i,i.i,ij,'yi:ii!:::!iii(ii, ii;Bi'i.i!i''l;iiW!

Fairy's very grand looking. I've tried my best to eat lots, and exercise, and make myself bigger, but I am a fizzle." "Yes, I played football. But girls do not need to be so tall ns men. Don't you remember whut Orlando said about Ilosallnd 'just as tall as my heart?' I imagine you come about to my shoulder. We'll measure as soou as you are on your feet agulu." "Are you going to live in Mount Mark now? Are you coining to stay?" Prudence was almost quivering as she asked this. It was of vital impor tance. "No, I will only be there a few days, but I shall probably be back every week or so. Is your father very strict? Maybe he would object to your writing to me." "Oh, he Isn't strict at all. And he will he glad for me to write to you, I know. Is Des Molues Just full of beuu tlful girls?" "I should say not. I never saw a renl beautiful girl In Des Moines In my life.

Of all the men I have seen in my life, I never saw one be fore that looked just the way I want ed him to." "Before?" he questioned eagerly. "Yes," said Prudence frankly." "You look just as I wish you to." s) CHAPTER IX. : V Father Starr Reads the Sign. And In the meanwhile, at the par sonage, Fairy was patiently getting breakfast. "Prudence went out for an enrly bicycle ride, so the members wouldn't catch her," she explained to the family. "And she isn't back yet. She'll probably stay out until after noon, and then ride right by the gro cery store where the Ladles have their Saturday sule. That's Prudence, all "Do Your Friends Call you Jerry?" over. Oh, father, I did forget your eggs again, I am afraid they are too hard. Here, twins, you carry in tho oatmeal, and we will cat. No use to wait for Prudence, it would be like waiting for tho next comet." Indeed, It was nearly noon when a small, one-horse spring wagon drove into tho parsonage yard. Mr. Starr was In his study with a book, but he heard a piercing shriek from Connie, and a shrill "Prudence!" from one of tho twins. He was downstairs in three leaps, and rushing wildly out to the little rickety wagon. And there was Prudence ! "Don't be frightened, father. I've just sprained my ankle, nnd It doesn't hurt hardly any. But the bicycle is broken, and we'll have to pay for it. You can use my own money in the bank. Poor Mr. Davis had to walk all the way to town,' because there wasn't any room for him in the wagon with me lying down like this. Will you carry me in? i:.i;iilii'IMI;''iH'jiii:iSi TSOi i Hi'ifl' !.iiiii'i!i-!!!iii!i'":!l!"liiii:ii;i;il:iHlii By ethel i iueston brought downstairs, and I'rudonc de posited upon it. "There1 no use to put me upstairs." she immirod thorn. "I won't stay there. 1 want to bo down here where I can boss the girls." Tho doctor came In, and bandaged the swollen purple ankle. Then they hud dinner they tried to remember to call It luncheon, hut never succeed ed ! After that, tho whole pursohuK family grouped about tho little single bed in the cheery sitting room. "Whoso coat Is thU, Prudence F asked Connie. "And whem in the world did you get these towels and silk shirts?" add ed Fairy. Prudence blushed most exquisitely. "They are Mr. Ilitriner's," she said, and glanced nervously at her father. "Whose?" chorused the family. "If you will sit down and keep Ktlll. I will tell you all about H. Hut you must not Interrupt me. What time Is It, Fairy?" "Two o'clock." "Oh, two. Then I have plenty of time," and la her own fruiik way, she told the story. "Then Mr. Davis came along with his cart," she concluded, "and Jerry or Ilurmer, you know, helped pot nie In, and the cart w as so small they both hud to walk." "Where Is he now?" "Is he young?" "Is he handsome?" "Did he look rich?" "Don't be silly, girls. Ho went to the hotel, I suppose. Anyhow, he left us as soon as we reiiched town. Ho said he was In a hurry, and had some thing to look lifter. Ills coat was un derneath me In the wagon, and he wouldn't take it out for fear of hurt ing my ankle, so the poor soul Is prob ably wandering arouim una town in ma shirt sleeves." Already, In the eyes of the girls, this Jerry or Ilurmer, had taken unto himself all tho interest of tho affair. I .. i1 . I saiu LMrK "He'll have to coino for his coat' "U e're bound to see him.' "Where does ho live? What was he doing in the hickory grove?" Inquired Mr. Starr , with a strangely sinking heart, for her eyes were alight with new and wonderful radiance. "Ho lives in Des Moines. II was just walking into town, and took short cut through the grove." "Walking I From Des Molnosr Prudence flushed uncomfortably. "I didn't think of that." she said. "But I do not see why he should not walk If he likes. He's 'strong and athletic. and fond of exercise. I guess he's nlentv able to walk if he wants to. I'm sure he's no tramp, father, if that Is wbatjrou are thinking." "I am not thinking anything of the kind, Prudence," he said with dignity. "But I do think It rather strange that a young man should set out to walk from Des Moines to Mount Mark. And why should ho be at It so early in the morning? Doesn't he require sleep, aa tho rest of us do?" ."flow should I know? I guess If he likes to bo out in the morning when It is fresh and sweet, It Is all right I like the morning myself. He had as much right out early as I had. His clothes were nice, und he Is a Harvard graduate, nnd his shoes were dusty, but not soiled or worn. Anyhow, ho Is coming at four o'clock. If you want to nsk If ho is a tramp, you can do it" And Prudence burst into teurs. Dramatic silence in the cheerful sit ting room I Then Fairy b Jn bustling about to bathe tho face und throat of "poor little Prudence," and her father said sympathetically: . "You're all nervous and wrought tip, with the puln and excitement Pru dence. I'm glad he Is coming so wa can thank him for his kindness. It was mighty lucky he happened along, wasn't It? A Harvard graduate 1 Yes, they are pretty strong on athletics at Harvard. You'd better straighten this room a little and have things looking nice when he gets here," said Father Starr, with great diplomacy. And he was rewarded, and sturtled, by observ ing that Prudence brightened wonder fully at his words. es, uo, sne urged engerly. "Got some of the roses from the corner bush, and put them on tho table there And when you go upstairs, Fairy, you'd better bring down that little lace spread In tho bottom drawer of our dresser. It'll look very nice on this bed. Work hard, girls, and get every thing looking fine. He'll t,0 here at four, ho said. You twins may wear your white dresses, and Connie must put on her blue and wear her blue bows Fairy, do you think it would be all right for you to wear your silk dress? Of course, the silk is rather grand for home, but you do look so beautiful in it. Father, will you put on your black suit, or are you too busy? And don't forget to wear the pearl cuff buttons Aunt Grace sent you" Do you think that the stranoer la what he says he Is? In that case, why should he be walking from Des Moines to Mount Mark and why out so early? Might ho' riot be an adventurer? EIQHY Why " Anurlc" la,! INSUKANCQ J. Ap;nl nst Sudden DeSS M,,l,m n .
