vertised it for sale,
A thin oldish young man left a
oht'ap furnished room In a poor Mo
tion of the city on the day the ad
vertUt'iuent appeared and bought a
bunch of buna una from a fruit stnud.
The dealer wasted no money in paper
bass.
The young nvnn tucked the news-iwiper-wriipped
bundle under his arm
and went baok to his room. He had
been illy nourished for weeks, so he
climbed the four flights of stairs
slowly.
In his room he set about prepar
ing his frugal lunch. A baunua and
a kIhhh of milk.
Verba p he would get a job that
day, or the next. It bad been a long
lane he'd been WRnderlng down. Jobs
had marked tt like milestones. Jobs
that he rould not hold because a face
with soft browu eyes and tender lips
intruded itself between his eyes nnd
the pages of his ledgers. Figures
and memories did not mix in book
keeping. One kindly boss had told htm to
take a course In concentration. The
trouble was that he concentrated too
deeply, but not upon his work. Once
he bud been out of a job for weeks
and his money had gone entirely be
fore he found another, a temporary
place, special work. Ho had gone
hungry then. And he had not eaten a
solid meal since, even when he was
employed. It proved to be ft sound
idea, because it enabled him to ent
the other half of the time. That is
to any. he was without work as often
as be had it. Hut he waa never down
to his last penny again.
There was one Job on which he
seemed to be making good, when he
was served with papers In divorce
iroceedings. .then he slipped bacR
nto the habit that had cost him his
earlier positions. He fell to dream
ing or neruo ixtu.
Ho waa always thinking of her.
Even now when, his lunch over, he
started to peruse the male help
wanted columns of the newspaper that
had been wrapped about the bananas,
There waa not Inns tor htm. lied
have to start the round of the em
ployment agencies again; Ills eye
wandered from the last help-wanted
column to the next. It waa houses
for sale.
Here was one in Moonfields. Wasn t
that the place he had gono to with
Iter tie Lou? Sure It was. He rend
on with awnkened Interest. The ad
vertisement intrigued him. It didn't
sound at all like a regular ad. ' AU
about a house that had been built
too lato for the owner to bo happy
In It. And only happy people wore
asked to coma and see it.
Rod It waa Rod, of course read
It twice, put It down and later read
It again, it was a amy an, sort or.
A sideshow trick of someone, he sur
mised. Ho wouldn't pay any atten
tion to It If It weren't In Moonf lelds
nnd he hndn't gono there with Bertie
Isou to look over the place as I
nrosneetlvo home site, lie remetn
boron how much he'd wnnted one little
house out there in nartlcular.
Ho kept on thinking of Moonflelda
until suddenlv ho was seined with ft
desire to nee the nlacn a an In.. He
had never gone back after that 'first
visit. Why not go and ace tnla house
that was advertised
An hour later he waa on train,
with a return tr n ticket to Moon
fields In his Docket. The da? was
aundny, and It aeemed that New York
was trying to depopulate lUelf, Rod
had to stand. Rut ho waa so glnd to
ha trolna: some olace. to have a nestl
nation other than an office waiting
room, that he waa Indifferent to dta
comfort.
From the station he walked to the
rows of cottages. It wns easy U find
the one he sought. Why, it must be
the very one he nnd looked at witn
Hortle Lou, Rod stood a moment on
the sidewalk and surveyed the nou
with k feelinir of belnir In ft trance,
No, tills was brand new, but ha would
hnrn swnrn It wns the same house,
His memory must have played blra ft
trifk.
Tben ho lookrfl down the street, at
the other houses. No two were ex
nftw nllke. hut In some there wns a
similarity. Ho told himself this house
must have been copM from the one
he had liked so much. "Not a very
lucky house, In apite of Its charm,"
he nuiaed, thinking of the advertise
ment. iio wnndored If anvone waa around
to show It to him. He thought he
aw a movement at one or tne win
dows, A moment Inter he lifted the
wrought Iron knocker and announced
his presence.

a round, good-natured face whereon

Is the house thai waa auvarnseu, i
believe?"
"Wh res. It Is.' the irirl told him
plessnntly nnd hold the door open
wider. ''Won't you come In?"
Rod stepped Inside. One glance
showed him that the Interior, ft much
as he could see of It, waa Just like
the other house. "If my memory Is
.iirnin" be R d to hi time If.
"I'retty nifty, Isn't It?" the girl who
hnd admitted him remarked. Itod nod

nai cosr nut little more than the
money she renliaed on the snle of the
more costly turmtnre. There had been
rew nieces to return, as she. de-
lared herself unable to complete the
payment on them.
1 here wns nothing for Rod to rec
ognise, except the exquisite taste that
nriu-icrixeti nertie i.ou. Hut aood
nnte waa not exclusively Rertie
Lou's.
Still, he et himself fancT that
Rertle Lou hnd furnished tt for their
home. And he had another Illusion,
too. one Ihnt was not so enslly un
derstood. He imagined that some un

and once be was sure be saw a bit of
dress disappear from sight Just within
an open door.
Hnt why should anvone hide? Per
haps it. was not convenient for the
mysterious person to make tin ap

Kod waa nuixled. until he decided
that there were two women alone In
the house and thoy were nervous
about his presence. "1 guess I do
