They did not look ahead to the win terwithout a church, without a par sonage, with a meager twenty-five dollars month to provide food and clothes and a roof over their heads. They merely accepted the present that was given them, and smiled at each other, and strove Id every way pos sible to Impress upon themselves the sublimity of their fnlth, the bound lessness of their possibilities Is divine love. As they went out to the enr an swering the call of Eddy Jackson's siren, they met the postman com ing la Ginger ran ahead of the others, and took the mail from bis hand. "Throe for fnther, one for Marjory mine, mine- the rest Is tor me." s s a s a s a Ginger's watchfulness over Mar jory and Hiram Duckworth Increased, ghe Intercepted every glance, endured the soft smiles wltb I glowering grim ncss, answered every light sally aa though It were Intended tor ber ears alone. One evening, soon after dinner, il'.rnm Duckworth decided thut he must withdraw to bla room to prepare hla sermon for the following Sunday, and Marjory thougnt shs would go upstairs and manicure ber nails. Rut Ginger was not to be distracted by mere plans for the future. She saw them both upstairs, saw the door of her father's room closed behind lllrani Duckworth's rigid back, saw Miriam ensconced or the foot of ber bed with Hies, orangewnod sticks snd buffers. Then she stent to the studio with a si Kb of relief. There she settled down to a complete balancing of ber ac counts. Hhs counted Ihs dimes In the lull's trunk. She made careful entries In her huge ledger. Her waste basket she found full tn overflowing of discarded letters, little white angels, which had accompanied the contributions to ihe borne. Ginger srns systematic snd orderly. These angels wers to be burned. Bo with waste basket In one hand, lantern In the other, she made her way carefully over the narrow beams, and down the wnhhly ladder. She noted, comfortably, that the two doors remained closed as she had left them, snd a pleasantly southing stillness pervsded the bouse. Softly, hniiilly, with waste bosket snd Inn tern, she slipped around the curve of the circular staircase and stopped. Hhs stnpited aghat, alertrllled. eiwll bound. For beneath her, before her very eyes, there lay revealed a scene those unutterable dlsgustlngness was beyond her power nf description. Tits wide living room was lighted, dimly lighted, by one small corner resiling lanp, and lr ths shadowy, semi darkness, (linger saw two figures ber sister, Marjory, snd Hiram rtnckwnrth-wbom shs bad left be hind their separate closed doors ool twenty minutes previous, Hy what strange tniulllveneas sack U.8 ills covered, behind those birring doors, that the other was descending to the common meeting ground of the living room below, Ginger never knew nor even which hsd made Ihs Initial mot. Ilui one fact was evident there tbey were. One of Hiram's arms was about her sister's shoulders. Mid his free hand wus fondling very gently, very caress Ingly, the soft gold of her balr. Mar jory herself, plainly not to he out distanced Id madness, wus raising net soft whits fingers to his cheek, his Hps, bis eyes. Ginger's Irrepressible gusp startled them, Ibey looked up st her, gravely. They did nol mors. "Eicuse me." Ginger's volet wns cold snd subdued, very small. "I thought you were In different places doing other things." ghe turned short around nxn th stairs, and went up lo ths attic tn the studio she ant herself down, hinv lly, and fell to deep consideration Hhs saw clearly thai Ihe situation was critical.

An appeal, then, to Hiram Duckworth. The next morning before breakfast. Ginger, alert and watchful, saw btrn walking down the flagstone patb be tween the rows of flowers, Inhsltng great breaths of the fresh morning nlr, his entire manner and countenance reflecting a smug and satisfied con tentment wltb the world at large. She hurried down, and J-ilned him. "Mr, Buckworth," she began firmly, "excuse me for butting In and It really Isn't a thing against Marjory, you know, for she Is just as nice as she seems to be" "I should lay she Is!" "But I've known her a long rime, and really, she Is a terrible flirt, though a: heart she doesn't mean a thing b) It I doo't know whether shs has told you 1 mean Ion see, It Is already arranged'' "Ellen I Hon don't mean that Mar Jory that she la engaged" The use of the word relieved her. She was finding It unaccountably hard to express herself tn a way that would gnln the desired result, without com milling herself to falsehood. "Well, yea In a way. Not exactly engaged, you understand, but It Is sll understood, If yon know wbat I mean." "Tea, I do know what you mean." The bright ruddiness went suddenly Shs Stopped Anhast, Electriflsd, Spall bound. nut of Hiram Duckworth's fare. "1 understand entirely too well. Ton are a good sport for tipping me oft I see." And then he went quickly Indoors, snd said nothing else. The appeal to lllrnra Duckworth hud Indeed reaped results offer s fashion, but Ginger did not feel very well ile:iseL lllram Duckworth, although anything hul a romantic figure, wus s alee rlmp. And the shocked look on bis fain, the strange, hurt stricken took, had touched her heart tie lind looked sorry. Ginger did not enjoy seeing people look sorry, not even disgusting pretenders who pawed and held hands Breakfast, usually such gay and cheery meal, proved an awkward oc casion. Illratn Duckworth seemed every Inch a mlulsier, unsmiling, grave, and sillily formal, lie talked exclusively to Miss Jenkins, snd not very entertainingly, lie did not look at Marjory, who bad ;ome In a little late wltb ber uauul bright morning radiance.

He fished two small packages from hla bag and bunded them to ber. "I see you're getting some more of those samples." be sdded cheerfully. "Those are for the twins," she an swered, ttuahing. "Personally, I am not Interested In beauty preparations." The day passed dully, a busy day, as Saturdays alwsys srs In parson ages where arrangements are always lending up to ths climatic Bahbath. lllram Buckworth remained down town for luncheon. Marjory, a still, white Marjory, busied herself In a studied way shout Ibe work of the house. And dinner id the evening was an Increasingly painful repetition of the morning jicnl. When the dishes wers done. Ginger repaired to the veranda. Miss Jenklui sat there, alone, solemnly rocking. "Where's Margie?" "She went to bed. She has a head ache." "Oh, 1 see." Ginger went npatalrs. and knocked gently at ber sister's door. "I'm Id bed," called a muffled voice In answer. , Ginger opened the door, snd went In. "I Just wanted to see If I could do anything for your headache," She gave her sister a sharp look. "You've been crying." "1 think I'm getting hay fever," said Marjory. "My eyes itlng. I'm going to sleep now." Ginger, at tbls dis missal, turned toward the door, "And Ginger, don't yon go and talk about it to Miss Jenkins or anybody. If I have a headache and hay fever It's nobody's business hu' my own. Not that anybody would cars anyhow." "I won't talk iboitt It Oo to sleep now, Margie, I'll be very quiet not to disturb you," And Ginger closed the door softly behind her, CHPTER VIII Sunday, ordlnnrlly such a pleasure slily hurried day la the parsonage, was no less than a dreary ordeaL Marjory appeared very lata for ber breakfast She need not bava ap peared at all, for she ate nothing. "Headache sll goner Inquired Ginger. "M'm." lllram. Instead of walking compan lonnhly to church wltb ths girls, ex cused himself snd went on In advance, explaining that he wished to see some body shout something. Marjory dreamed absent-mludedly during the service, while Ginger, on the con trary, listened sttentlvely te overy word, ,-eportlng confidentially to her sister. Inter on, that she riidnt think so much of the sermon. In the afternoon, Bddy Jackson came In the car to tnke them to Pay Dirt and although Hiram tried to be ex cused from the party there raa ao evading Eddy's friendly Insistence, But while there was great gaiety st Pay Dirt, the arrival of the car from the parsonage hi ought a sudden slump In their high spirits. Alexander Murdock waa there, and Ginger's wrath, long slumbering, vented Itself upon Ms unoffending head. Why should he spend all ot hla spare time at Pay Dirt! What had a mere can grocer lo do with the conduct of ag riculture? And why. If mere friend ship for tCddy attracted him thither, did he openly Ignore hla friend In his anli nt attentlvenesa to Miriam! And why. for that matter, should the so seosll le Miriam, be suddenly thus gay and shining? "What's Hie matter wltb everybody anyhow f demanded Kldy crossly. "Thai's soma groura of a preacher, If you ask me. Margie's clear at the bottom lbs dumps, wirst thing la the world for her mtnpleilon. And even yon. Ginger, you're oc cheerier than a broken crutch." "Well. I havs s lot of trouble," said Ginger d illy. The one bright moment In the after noon for Ginger wns when Alexander announced that hs waa leaving the next day for the farther West. "Walking?" she Inquired coldly. "Oh. no. Business has been quits good. I shall be able to ride quite a Utile distance before I connect up wltb another Orange and Black." "Sort of a can lonr." "Something of the sort, yes. But If the parsonage group hsd little to contribute to the day's enjoyment, It wus more than compensated by the glad hilarity of the otliera Mr. Tol llver laughed like a boy at the bald and rihiilrt Jokes of the can grocer.
