Ill I 111 I i I I 1 "Oh, if you don't mind," said th girl in the broad lint, "wonld you put this worm on for me?" Hallerk looked tip. She was dan gling a Hue in frout of bin nose, and she held out to hi in a tlu ran. "I simply can't put tliem on the book," she said, with a little shudder "I bate to see them squirm." Ilullock looked at her again. She didn't seem at nil the type of young woman who mude acquaintances pro miscuously. She bad a grave, direct glance, and at present her mind was bent seriously on the question of fish ing. In silence Hulleck Impaled the worm. "Thank you," she said and dropped her Hue into the water. In a moment there was a splash, and with a little cry the girl landed a fish. "Please take It off," she said, and Hulleck found the line again dangling in frout of bis nose, but this time with a golden, jewel spotted fish at the end. Without harming tho charming crea ture Halleck slipped the hook out of its mouth. "You'd better throw It back," he advised. "It's too small to eat." "Very well," she said and watched the little Buufls.li as it swam through the liquid water to freedom. Then once more she held out the tin an. . ; ' "Flense put one on," she said. Again Halleck patiently laid aside his baud net and baited ber hook, and again she dropped her line in the wa ter, to bring It out again with another infinitesimal fish. . "This one is too small, too," Halleck told her. "You can't catch any flab worth keeping on the pier." "Why are you fishing then?" she questioned. ' "I am catching bait," was Uallcck's Information, "and when I have enough I am going out in my boat for pick erel." Her eyes shone. "Oh, I should love to catch a pickerel," she said eagerly. "Do you know, those two little fish that you took oft of my line are the first I cer caught?" Halleck looked at her with a specu lative eye. "I could take you out" Ho lumltateiL "Could you?" Then In a business like, way,-"How much do you charge for nn hour?" Ilnllcck b tared at her. "I don't understand," he said at last The grave eyes met bis in a direct gaze. "Aren't you the man who rents the boats?" "No." "Oh!" Ilor tone was startled. "Oh, I beg your pardon. I thought" "That's all right," Halleck assured her. But her face was stained by a burn ing blush. "I must have seemed very trouble some" "Not a bit. I am oue of your fellow guests at tho hotel. I sit at the table nest to you. I saw jou last night with on elderly lady." "Yes, my aunt." She spoke abstractedly as she gath ered up ber rod and little basket "I don't think I will fish any more," she remarked. " J "Please don't run away on my ac count," Halleck begged. "I am going out la a few minutes, and yon can .have the pier all to yourself." Ho did not offer to take her with him. He knew now that she was not that kind of girl, and be was glad she was not , ilo put bis traps Into bis boat and pulled out, lifting his white linen hat gravely as his boat shot Into mid stream. That night he saw her again at the table. Bhe was in pink, and she wore 1 her hair in pretty go'den puffs all over tho top of her head. He liked her lit tle stately manner and tho deferential way she had with her aunt The older lady was tall and thin, with sparkling brown eyes. The spar kling eyes rested often on Halleck dur ing the meal, and when dinner was over and the two ladles passed him at the table the aunt stopped. "You are Mr. Hulleck r she ques tloncd. "Yes." Halleck rose and stood be side ber. "I asked at the office," the lady ex- . plained. "My niece has been telling me that she took you for a boatman. She feels badly that she should have spoken s she did. But I am glad it happened. am Mrs. Evans. I know your mother well, Mr. Halleck, and I might not have met her son if I hadn't been looking for the man that Helen fancied the had offended." Halleck walked to the door with her, whore tho girl in pink waited for them. "This Is Mr. Halleck, Helen," Mrs. Evnus said. "Ho isn't a bit offended, ami be writes delightful books, as his molner did beforo him." Helen, surveyed him with the grave eyes that hnd delighted him that morn iujr. "Did you catch any pickerel?" she risked. " ' ! "Four," be Informed her, "big ones." "Helen is simply craiy over fishing," Mrs. Evans stated. "She has always lived Inland, and now she spends morning, noon and nlghl on the lake." "I'll tell you," Halleck planned, "we More than Enough Is Too Mneh.

And they went, the three of them, In Halleck's boat and for bait they had minnows, and their prey was pickerel, and before noontime Helen bad caught two shining, slender beauties, uud Mrs. Evans, who, in a broad bat and with a magaElne, bad mnde herself com fortable, was moved to enthusiasm. "Helen," she said, "we will come every day." "Mr. Halleck may think we are trou blesome, auntie." "Mr. Halleck will think be has been blessed by the gods," said that gentle man, and Helen laughed a little. "I am starved," she said. "Let's go and cook our fish." So Halleck took them to a green, cool, shadowy spot in the center or1 the island, and there they broiled their fish and ate their lunch in delightful solitude. That was the beginning. Helen, un der Halleck's guidance, learned to catch pickerel. But she learned more than that, for Halleck whs teaching n lesson of lips and eyes and heart, and Mrs. Evans watched the two with shrewd but satisfied eyes. It was In the third week that Hal leck unconsciously launched a thun derbolt "Every time I come It seems love lier," Helen said us they explored the island together, while Mrs. Evans nap ped under a newspaper. "Yes," nalleck said. "Mrs. Halleck always Insists that it Is the garden spot of the world." There was a dead tsileucc, and pres ently Helen complained of n headache, and they went home. Halleck found it Impossible to get n word with ber that night. "I don't know what Is the matter with her," Mrs. Evans said when be sought her disconsolately. "She just sits up in her room and mopes." That night she said to Helen, "I think Mr. Halleck feels very bad at the way you are treating him." "I don't see why be should." Helen In a pale blue negligee was curled up In the window sent. "I don't see why be should. I don't think it is the prop er thing for a married man to take us boating, nuutlc." "Married fiddlesticks!" ejaculated Mrs. Evans. "Well, he Is," Helen Insisted. "He spoke to me the other day of Mrs. Halleck." "Never heard of her before," sniffed Mrs. Evnus. And the next morning she sought Halleck. He threw back his bend and laughed when she told blm, and that afternoon Helen, fish ing languidly on the pier, heard a voice behind her. "Can you put on your worms?" "Yes," she said. "They wriggle dreadfully, but I I prefer to do It my self." "Of course," Halleck said, "If you wish. I wouldn't deprive you of the pleasure." Ho sat down beside her. "I thought you hnd gone out in your boat," she told blm. "No. I expect Mrs. Halleck this afternoon, and I wanted to make ar rangements." "Oh," Heleu said and pulled ber hat deeper over her eyes. "She will bring both of the chil dren," he wont on. "Indeed!" Indifferently. "And her husband, if be can come." He was watching her out of the cor ner of his eye. The lino gave a spasmodic jerk. "Her husband!" Helen quavered. "My brother. Funny, Isn't It, that I don't call her by ber first name. But you sco my brother Is a lot older than I, and when I was a kid I always called her Mrs. Halleck." "It is awfully funny." But there was a queer little quiver iu Helen's voice. Halleck's fuee grew very ten der as bo watched. She drew In her line. "There Isn't nny bait on your hook," be told her. "Let me put It on." Her eyes met his adoring ones, and then their bands met. ' "Let me do things for you always, dear," Halleck begged. And Helen, with grave eyes and smiling Hps, whis pered, "Yes." Destroying the Point. Every one knows the man who is notorious for so telling n story as to destroy its point An. English noble. man, Iiord P., was noted for his suc cess In thus ruining the prosperity of a story.

Thirty years ago two largo houses were built nt Albert gute, Loudon, tho sito and cost of which seemed likely to prohibit tenants from hiring them.

Lord P. thought this nn excellent joke and ran round the town, snylug to every friend be met: "I say, do you know what they call those bouses at Albert gate? They call them Malta and Gibraltar because they can never let them. Isn't it aw fully good?" Some one told Lord I. tho old riddle, " uy was the elephant the last mil mal to get into the ark?" to which tho answer Is, "Because ho had to pack his trunk."
