It la better to be insured than to

In one of our Northern states where
the mountains rise highest and streams
flow swiftest, there lies securely hid
den from the world a tiny hamlet.
On the last, most graceful curve of
the road leading from the town, on
slightly raised ground, stood with
quiet superiority, a long, low comfort-
ably modern bungalow.
Behind the guardians, Mrs. Marden,
mistress of the house and mother of
four healthy grown children, sat in a
low wicker rocker, knitting. Not quite
forty, plump, and with a sense of hu
mor, Mrs. Marden surveyed life from
a safe and sane altitude. Now as she
sat, her face suddenly lighted and she
smiled as she rose in greeting to her
partner, who was equally plump, a lit
tle over forty, and with the same
sense of humor.
“Supper ready, mother?” he asked,
with that intimacy which needs no ac-
knowledgment of meeting.
"Yes, we’ll sit right down. Come,
Mary and Dot,” she called to her first
aud last born. “Come, boys," this last

ously pushing back her chair, the rest
following her. “Why, it’s Burt,” from
father. “How do you do, Burt?
You’re Just in time. We were just
having supper.”
“Oh, no,” protested Burt ; “don't put
yourselves out for me.”
"No fear of that," laughed Mrs Mar
den. Hastily another place was set,
and the joviality increased.
“I'm sorry folks, but I've something

Mary lowered her fork to her plate.

ed him with questions. Would they
never stop? And finally, when the sup
per was over, they carled him off to
the cool piazza to ask more.
Mary wandered through the house
aimlessly, looking first through a win
dow at some dfstant scenery, then at
her flowers, which she loved and al
ways tried to keep in the house. Al
ways through her mind the phrases
repeated themselves, “Can It be pos
sible? He is really going.” Finally
she seated herself at the piano and
played. She played well, but it made
Iter feel infinitely lonely.
It was there that he found her. He
came in quietly and stood beside her.
It seemed as if there was nothing to
be said.
"Mary, it is very late. You will wait
till I come back, Mary? You must
wait.”
“Yes,” she replied, "I sitali always
wait.” He kissed her very gently.
