his cadet DAYS he had laid aside part of
the generous allowance his father sent

"Of course" Winthrop soliloquized
as he went along, everyone thinks

the contrary"
As he arrived at this conclusion lie
marched up. the steps and gave q de-
termined pull at the great lions head
that served as a knoclxer. A trim maid
servant opened the door and tod him
the master was out, but she had orders
to ask the lieutenant In when he called,

Even as she spoke the parlor door
was pushed open and Miss Daisy APP

flowers. Great hardy jacks crowded
out the dainty tea roses, while violets
nestled lovingly in their bed Of leaves.
Near the window stood Daisy's favorite
chair, and the second volume OF the
book she still held in her hand, thrown
carelessly on the floor, showed she had
left her nook hastily.
As win took in these details his eve
