Don't yon remember me?" Sheila slopped and regarded her gravely a sturdy, brown-faced lltllo girl, with bluish gray eyes set wide apart, in a plain tan linen frock. Tho darling, the darling! Sheila evidently was wrestling with an agony of embarrassment "Yes ... 1 think 1 do," she said shyly nt Inst. "Sheila, darling, Mothor's come all the way from New York to sec you. 1 want so much to tulk to you. Will you walk a little way with me';" "I'll bo lale to school." "Jus: a little Into. Will It mailer much Jurat this once?" "I'm having a parly; It's my birthday," said Sheila. "Of courso It Is. Do you think .Mother's ever forgotten?' See. I've brought you a present." l-anny's hands trembled so slio dropped the llltle box. Sliella plcliod It up hut made no move to open It. They had been walking slowly tiward the school. Fanny hold her breath ns they nenrcd the corner. A short block distant was Hie small strip ot parkway which stood between the river and Cloughbarre's IicbI refildonco district. Without word or glance, but without hesitating. Sheila turned at right angles to ward tho river and led the wuy to a bench half hidden by an enor mous flowering fnrsylhia hush. "Why did you go away?" she asked In a small voice. Fanny hnstily gulped down the lump in her threat. "Darllug. Mother was sent away. Or rather, surb things were snld to bur cruel wicked things that she could not stay longer In your grand mother's house. Mother had done Bumolhlug she shouldn't some thing that looked bad, hut wasn't. Mother hasn't time to explain now; but when you are older and can understand better I promise to tell you ull about It. You must not be lieve that she ever d:d anything dreadful." "Wouldn't Daddy bollove you?" "Your grandmother wouldn't, and rover saw your father alone. It was always hard for Mother to talk hofore Grandmother. She's a good woman but so . . . ao different that eho never understood vory well." "Daddy's alone In bis ofllce; wo could go and see blm now and tell him." "Darling blessed child! You do hollevo Mothor?" "Why. yes," said Sheila, wonder ing. It had never occurred lo her to disbelieve. "And you won't forget to come to Iho different rooms.

Sheila promised not to forget ( Somewhere across the river a clock began striking. One . . . two . . . five . . . seven , . . nine. Nine o'clock. Her train left F.vansvllle a little after eleven; And Sliella mustn't bo too late for school. "Darling, you haven't looked at your present. You may not like It.; Can you guess what 1 have on a shelf in my closei?'' ' "Another present?" "All the presents I've bought for you on your birthdays and Christ mases ever since 1 Went away. First I bought dolft then I remeni-, bered you were growing toe big for dolls so I bought books such heav enly fairy stories and a little red tam-o'-shanter, a string of rose quartz oh, lots and lots ot things. When you come we can look at them and then give them away." : Sheila glanced quickly up at her mother. "I wouldn't like to gtvt) them away," she said, and was seized with an agony of shyness. To cover it she began hastily unwrapping her present. On a pad ot while velvet in a white kid box lay a small fat gold heart encruBted with pearls and turquoises. "It's beautiful.' Oh. Mother, it's beautiful." ' "You really like It?" "I love it It's the beaucltulestj present I ever had." "Darling, Mother has to go In m minute. Tell Die what you do all day what you Hire to do." "I like my pony most, I think.' And I like Marjorle that's my best friend. And dancing school. Ob, I like lous ot things." "Do you Mill go to the Baysbnrsv for the summers?" "Yes. Mother. When t am lt Daddy Is going to take me to Eu rope for a long visit with Aunt Amelia." "Your Aunt Amelia and I used to be great friends. I've often thought that if she had been home " Fanny stopped abruptly; then asked it Lcona was still with them. "Oh, yes. Somotlmos I think 1 like Leona next best to Daddy and you." This last scarcely audible. "Thank you, sweetheart You've made me very happy," Fanny man aged to say. She longed to snatch Sheila fiercely to her heart to cov. or her face with kisses. But she dared veuture no more than to take a small brown hand In hers, and pat it. Sheila edged a little closer, closer still until she was snuggled ng:iiti3t her mother. When Fan ny's arm went, round her she gave a lltllo sigh of content. They smiled at each other, shyly yol Intimately. Temporarily at least the live years' BHiKiriilluu was sponged out; Fanny had her child hnclt. "Sheila . . . what do they tell you about me?" "Nothing:. Just that yon went; nwuy and Mint you mustn't be talked about because. It makes Daddy up happy." "Dearest, It docs dreadful things to little girls to ho ashamed ot their mnthors. If other girls hint things, if they slop milting when mothers are mentioned, Just remember what I've lolil you that there's no real roason to he ashamed, that when you nro a llltle older it will all ba explained." The clock across the river struck the quarter hour and Fanny knew that she must go. Sheila made no protest, hut alio clung to her mother, linked hor to promlBO tn come again her next birthday. "Swootheurt, If I can I'll surely be here. I'll enmn every year. We'll have that to look forward to." "Couldn't you write lo me?" "They wouldn't give you my let ters, and I enn't teach you to go on deceiving your father by writing to me. I hope It Isn't wtnng to asK yon not to lull him, or anyone, that you have seen tne. Out It they find oul und ask you, you must be quite frank. Your father won't blame yon will know It's all my fault' In side your locket on a piece of pa per Is my address. Will you bide It somewhere and if you are ever real ly ill have Leona telegraph me?" They ventured on a hurried kiss. Then Sheila was gone tor good, running fast but turning every lit tle whllo tn wave. "I like teona next beet to Baddy and you," she had aariO. Fanny's hart both ached nd sang.
