CHAPTER Ill
AT THE FOUNTAIN,


The mill stream was slender brook,
tumbling down wild gorge from its
fountain few hundred yards away
Rosalie had worn a slender path from
the mill up to the streams source, lone
ly spot, darkly shaded, where the water
rose with a mellow gush from deep
fssure in rock Some smooth barked
naples grew in a clump on one side of
the spring, on the other side two luxu-
RANT liquid amber trees rustled their
tenderly rich foliage.
A vast escarpment of rock, dripping
with moisture and tapestried with green
moss and variegated lichens, lowered
above the tree tops like the wall of some
ruined fortress of Titan days.
Rosalie would bring her books up here
and would rest so still in the deep shade
that even the most timid creature in the
wood did not suspect her.
This cool twilight place by the foun-
tain became her study during the long
Georgian summers, and she seemed to
take into her physique, and into her
mental nature as well, the freshness of
the atmosphere and the RANT health of
the vegetation
In the course of the week following
the arrival of Aunt Marguerites letter,
there was so much to do at the mill that
Rosalie had little time for outdoor ram
bles or study This letter had produced
a great effect. 1t was like watt from
magic land. The changes that it wrought
about and within the mill were wonder
full. Everything was, by one means or
another, frightened and put into order,
with especial reference to the accommo-
dating of Marguerite Chenier Roosevelt,
whose name daily grew more fascinating
to the fancy of Rosalie. In picturing
this great visitor, the young girls mind
outlined stately dame, such as those in
the romances she had read, dressed in
silks and lace and stiff brocades, carry
ing herself grandly and haughtily, with
pale patrician face and cold gray eyes,
This fancy weighed upon her; it came
into her dreams at night; it followed her
through her routine of daily work.

A Farmers Idea.

"What's it wuth?"

Good Looks.

Good looks are more than skin deep,
depending upon healthy condition of
all the vital organs. If the liver be in
active, you have a bilious look, if your
stomache be disordered you have dys-
peptic look and if your kidneys be af-
ected you have pinched look. Secure
good health and you will have good
looks. Electric bitters is the great
Alternative and Tonic, acts directly on
these vital organs. Cures pimples,

Z young man who came suddenly up
