boiling until clear.) After covering
the berries with the strip, cork the

to your pink-eyed mother. Don't let her go out in
the dew without her gum shoes on And, Char

her across a spring branch. Then they discovered
that they loved each other This so excited her
that the next day. regardless of the fact that she
made engagement to eat cold pie with him, she
ran away to the house of a sick girl and remained
until after luncheon. Several days afterward he
met her in the rain and touched her hand. Both of

sat down a rock and shook her head She would
not marry him. The face of her father came up
and hung against tree. She shuddered II she
married and went away from home Dahlia might
play the fiddle and Agate might kiss the cat
She kept out of Roberts way. But he found her
stormy night. She at the house of the
sick girl. She suddenly entered the kitchen where
he sat roasting potatoes
(Which wsy?" he asked.
"To the mountains" she answered.
"Pll go with you"
They looked at each other, and went out together
Rain was falling All this rain was necessary TO
keep their lives from becoming dry. They climbed
the rugged path. Daggers of lightning stabbed
he earth. The thunder roared.
