CHAPTER KY.

''To be Gretchen, you must count the leaves of your daisies" he said to her, as he painted-painted her just as she was, with her two little white feet in tho wooden shoes and the thick green leaves behind the simplest picture possible, tho dress of gray-only cool dark gray-with white linen bodice, and no color anywhere except in the green of tho foliage; but where he meant the wonder and tho charm of it to lie was in the upraised, serious, child like face, and the gaze of the grave, smiling eyes.
 It was Gretchen, spinning, out ill the open air among the flowers, Gretchen with the tall dog daisies growing up about her feet, among the thyae end the roses, before she had had need to gather one to ask her future of its parted leaves
 Tho Gretchen of Schetfer tells no tale; sho is fair haired, hard working, simple minded peasant, with whom neither angels nor devils have anything to do, and whose eyes never can open to either hell or heaven. But the Gretchen of Flamen said much more than this; looking at it, mon would sigh from shame and women weep from sorrow.

 Any other thing than the truth! Of course not People take for granted that one tells truth; it would be very base to cheat them Do you really mean that I may come in the forest-and you will tell me stories like those you give me to read?"

 "Ashamed?'
 "Yes because of my wooden shocs."
 Was it possible? Bebee thought, as she ran out into the garden and locked the door be- hind her, and pushed the key under the water butt as usual being quite content with that prudent precaution against robbers which had served Antoine all his days. Was it pos sible, this wonderful joys Her cheeks were like her roses, her eyes had brilliance like the sun; the natural grace and mirth of the child blossomed in a thousand ways and gas lures.
 As she went by the shrine ill the wall she bent her knee moment and made the sign of the cross; then she gathered a little moss rose that nodded close under the border of the palisade and turned and gave it to him.

 He shrank little, as her fingers touched him.

 ''Poor little Bebeel' he said again. ''Did frighten you, indeed? Nay, that was very base of mo. We will not spoil our summer holiday. There is no such thing as fend, my dear. There are only men-such as 1 am. Say the daisy spell over for me, Bebee. See if do not love you httle just as you love your flowers"
 She smiled, and the happy laughter came again over her face.
 "Oh, am sure you care for mo a little" !" she said softly, tor you would not be so good and get mo books and give me pleasure; and do not want the daisies to tell me that, because you say it yourself, which is better. !"
 ''Much better" he answered her dreamily, and lay there in the grass, holding the little wooden shoes in his hands
 He was not in love with her. He was in no haste. He preferred to play with her softly, slowly, as one separates the leaves of rose to see the deep rose of its heart.
 Her own ignorance of what she felt had q charm for him. He liked to lift the veil from her eyes by gentle degrees, watching each new pulse beat, each fresh instinct trenble into life
 It was an old, old story to him; he knew each chapter and verse to weariness, though there still was no other story that he still read as often. But to her it was so new. To him it was long beaten track; he knew every turn of it; he recognized every way side blossom; he had passed over a thousand times each tremulous bridge; he knew so well beforehand where each shadow would fall, and where each fresh bud would blossom, and where each harvest would be reaped But to her it was new.
 She followed him as a blind child 0 man that guides her through garden and reads her wonder tale.
 He was good to her, that was all she knew When he touched her ever so lightly she felt 8 happiness so perfect, and yet so unintelli- l gible, that.she could have wished to die in it. | And in her humility and her ignorance she wondered always how he-so great, so wise, 50 beautiful-could have thought 1t ever worth his while to leave the paradise of 1 E.ubes' land to wait with her under her little
