out on the flat desk-top, feeling ex

association and talk after her weeka
of a trained, artificial relations With
this man, if they kept oil of pedagogy,
ah could be herself up to a certain
point at least (though of course ahe
would have to watch her accent). She
almost anatched hta bat and coat away
from him aa ahe directed him to draw
np his chair before the array of dainty
andwlchea, coffee and fruit which aha
had apread out
"But," ha aaid as he placed their

"Well, alnce you know th very worat

he said dolefully, his yea on her
glowing face and creamy neck encir
cled by a fluffy, fluted whit rtiffls.
What a brut he had been to make
her cry anything so dainty and
sweet!
"I wouldn't presum to flirt with

assured him, "who knows the very
worst about met"
"The very worat you're sure!"

Bhe poured him a second cup and
his heart thrilled to her aa he aaw
how gay she now looked after her

la an conscience, and this bit of com
panionship with such an engagingly
Impudent child was, to aay the least,
very diverting.
"Too mad this coffee T he asked.

Conversation at aupper, In spit of
her efforts to sustain it, , seemed to
languish. No one but Aunt Rosy
seemed to be In the mood for this
friendly chatting.
"Susie tol' me about your boldln'
up young CrelKhton and taktn' hla
watch off of him, Sam," ahe eatd, "and
if I waa yon I wouldn't like It ao well
that that fnet young fellah got a foot
hold In here with Nettle so lovesick sha
don't know half th time what ahe's
about"
"I dont know what you mean by
a foothold,' Aunt Rosy," replied Mr.
Bchweockton Irritably. "11 alnt
been round here alnce."
"How do yon know he ain't? This
after, when I got here, I seen Nettle
niakln' alcb chocolate futch and"
"Tea," broke In Susie in a tone of
grievance, "and mind what aha don
'Flirting!' I'm Afraid I Can't Play
Up. Dont Know How. Afraid I've
Always Been Rathar a Stick With
Girls."
yet I She cooked my Are out ao'a I
bad to build It fresh to cook my sup
per!" "And when her futch waa done
a 'ready, did ahe offer some to me and
Susie? She did not! And wbat'a
more, I don't aee none of It bein'
passed 'round to yous neither! Whst
did ahe done with that there futch?
Why, I seen her packln' It all up nice
In a white box and bldln' It good
away I Who for? That's what you'd
better And out 8am Schwenckton!
Who for?"
Nettle, her face crimson, muttered
something about "a big nosey" and
"buttln' Into other folks' business"
but ber father Interfered,
"Ba peaceful, both of you. I wont
bave no wranglln' at our meals. Till
supper's through a'ready, Nettle can
tell me who the futch la for."
Nettle, flashing a look of bate at
Aunt Rosy, subsided Into a sullen
alienee.
Aunt Rosy waa certainly a very dis
turbing element in this household. It
wss because of her presence here this
evening" that Mr. Schwenckton found
himself, greatly to hla astonishment
not to aay bewilderment and distress,
"up against" the younger generation
In a way that waa a shocking revela
tion to blm of how times had changed.
Incredible It aeemed to bla patriarchal
Ideaa of family Ufa that hie own
young daughter should dare to defy
him but here waa the fact before hla
very eyes Nettle stubbornly refusing
to snswer bis questions aa to what aha
had done with th fudge aha bad made.
She admitted that it was already dis
posed of. But neither commands,
threats nor coaxings would elicit any
thing further from ber.
Meely waa pledged for a rendexvous,
about school-closing time, with St
Croix In the woods on tha hilltop.
Tbla would be ber first meeting with
him since their wordless encounter
la tha Schwenckton kitchen the night
of the "holdup" aud Meely, aa ahe hast
ened aftor achool to the hill, waa tin
gling with curiosity aa to what b
would have to any of that dangerous
moment which they bad managed to
come through ao unbetraylngly.
She waa pretty aura that poor Uttl
Nettle'a fudge had been made for 8t
Croix. "For all I know, ha haa been
aeelng ber and baa discovered that I
am the teacher I" aha apeculated.
Not that ahe believed he had been
seeking Nettle. He was, for the time,
too engrossed In herself. But Nettle,
In her adolescent Infatuation, may
nave been thruatlng herself upon him
and St Croix would not be overacru
puloua In accepting gift the goda of
fered. "I'll find out about that fudge,"
Meely resolved, "and It be la taking
advantage of that Ignorant child, III
protect herl"
She wondered, as ah went on ber
way, whether St Croix would notice
the coat ahe wore, Tha season having
advanced too far for ber gaudy voile
frock, without a wrap, ahe waa In a
bit of a predicament (or ber Jacket
suit waa far too stylish for the Meely
of St Croix' mental gallery and tha
only other wrap ahe bad waa tbla half
worn-out coat aha had nsed on th
steamer en route for America, an Eng
lish tweed that had once been auch a
flrst-clasa garment she feared St
Croix would instantly dotect its qual
ity and atyle he waa ao obaervanl
and Informed In auch matter well,
rntherl
If he did notice that her coat waa a
good English tweed and ask questions,
how on earth ahould ahe explain? She
would have to trust to the inspiration
of the moment
"It'a almost unbelievable that I've
come through ao fur without bla dis
covering me! Tm some actreea, I
ami They'll certainly have to notice
me when I get to Hollywood I"
He waa there ahead of ber at their
meeting place and tha nipping air of
the hilltop had acted aa an Irritant
to both hla passion snd his temper. It
wss getting much too cold for these
out-of-door meeting and he knew of
no place under a roof where tbey
could get together without risk of de

thing, my desr, aa te aead that box
of fudge to my home? My mother got
