TT7ELL then," demanded Jane,
VV "do you think Iff fair when
my mother Is giving np everything
and you're getting what she lovei
best, that I ebould consider your
wishes entirely Instead of hers In
one little mattert I want to do what
yon want of course. But I can't be
happy If you force me to hurt Mother
10, Just at this time."
There seemed nothing for James
to say after that but that of course
they would live In the Tyler place.
But ha said It ungraciously. When
be kissed Jane goodnight she clung
to him with unusual tenderness and
whispered shyly In his ear how much
she loved him and how happy he had
made her.
Jane was not overly given to
tenderness or demonstrations she
accepted rather than gave so
James squirmed In his chair, bnt
said no more. In his heart of heart
ha felt the arguments were all on
the side ot his aunt.
Mr. Northrup was as good as bis
word. He not only bought the Tyler
place at a generous price but bad
the deed made out In his daughter's
name and told her she could go as
far as she liked In making It over to
please her.
It was a conventional brick house
ot the typa much favored In the
eighties when It was built, and Jane
spent many radiant weeks In over
seeing Its alteration.
JAMES went through the bouse
with Jane from cellar to earreL
Ha thought It was hideous and
could manage no more than a grudg
ing, 'It Isn't so bad."
'I should say It Isn't, yon nn
grateful old bear," Jane laughed.
But wait until 1 get through with
It Wait until you see my plans."
Jane did not seem to be offended,
but neither did she show him thi
plans nor Invite Jamea to Inspect
tha bouse again until the carpen
ters and plumbers bad finished and
the painters and paper hangers were
about to move In.
Then she led him proudly to the
second floor to show blm two shin

. Jana whispered how muoh she loved him.
James left ber with a mingled
tumult of emotions. But as be
came out from the Northrup'a front
door and saw the Tyler house loom
Ing darkly before him, he glared at
It balefully and felt that a thousand
mocking eyes behind those hooded
tnrlng windows were glaring bale-
fully back.
James and the Tyler house were
npon enemies from that moment and
they never more than barely tol
rated each other at any time there
after.
In the morning tha unpleasant
. task awaited him ot breaking the
news to bis Aunt Sarah. As he ax
pected, aha took It badly. Bhe was
not only angry she was bitterly of
fended and she and Jamea almost
quarreled. James naturally defended
Jana.
"But wouldn't any girl want to
live near her own mother," he
argued. "That Is any girl who really
loved her mother?"
-it seems to ma that If your
mother could come here from Ken
tucky and your grandmother all the
way from New England that Jana
Northrup might be able to live a
couple of miles from Nortb Fifth and
Oak Streets," said Miss Sarah, her
voice trembling.
"ITTELL, I know, but Jana la an
' ' only daughter and her mother
goes around crying because she Is
leaving home and . . "
"Indeed?" sniffed the other. "1
wonder how Mrs. Northrup managed
to II vo through the three years Jane
was East and In Europe?"
"But Mrs. Northrup spent most
ot ber summers In the East with
Jane."
"And there's nothing to prevent
ber spending as many hours as she
wishes ot most of the days In the
year with Jane as long as they live
In the same town."
"Well, then, this house Is pretty
big tor a young girl to take care ot."
"The Tyler bouse Is not small. The
trouble with this place Is that It Is
too far away from North New Con
cord where most ot tha young people
live. Our neighbors aren't very fash
lonahle. Wa re on the edge of things,
and Jane wants to live near the center."
rooms; there was a lavatory besides
on the ground floor under the stairs.
James admired the bathrooms.
He hoped to have one entirely to
himself, but Jane explained that one

of their guests, while be would share
the back one with their servant Ob
well. There was a single bathroom
In his old home.
Jane bad not been able to change
the shape ot the rooms as she wished
but she had added a bay window to
tha back parlor and had nearly all
tha doors on the lower floor torn
out and enlarged Into open passage
ways, flanked on either side by solid
oak pillars.
"I like a house to open up grandly
and glva an air of spaciousness,"
Jane pointed out "It will be so nice
when we are entertaining." She
waited for compliments.
James thought that an entire
downstairs that could be seen at a
glance looked like a hotel. He said
bluntly, "Wbon 1 go In a room 1 Ilka
to be able to close the door behind
me, lock It when 1 want to."
"That's rather old-fashioned, Isn't
it?"
"Perhaps I'm old-tashloned."
"Perhaps you are. I'll have to edu
cate you out ot It Anyway, you'll
hare the library. I've planned to
make that your special den. Ton
can lock yourself In there aa often
as you please."
James Inspected his future sanc
tum gloomily. At least It had a fire
place and bad had a black marble
mantel. Now that was gone and In
Its stead stood a horror In elaborate
ly carved oak with little fretted bal
conies which reached to tha celling.
It stood back to back with Its twin
In the entrance hall. Between them
was a square opening with Its top
and sides lined with mirrors. The
opening destroyed the last vestlgea
of possible privacy In the library.
What's the Idea of that holer
James asked.
Isn't It pretty? That's my Idea
entirely. I mean to keep fresh flow

three mirrors."
It seemed so awful to James that
he laughed.

Lmlsed, and offered to take the man
to the city police station to report
