NOT COMMONPLACE.

When Clinton's engagement to Miss
Lanston had been broken because of Greta
Morrys, conjecture grew and thrived in
all directions as to whether or not Greta
was betrothed to Mr.. Clinton.
A few there were who asked Mr.. Clln-
ton himself and received only the disheart-
ening answer, ASK me no questions and
I'll tell you no lies. -
All of the Chase house guests, therefore,
were on the qui vive whenever Clinton and
Greta appeared together, and, indeed, the
uncertainty of it all lent new interest to
the idle pleasure of the hotel life on the
Maine coast
When early in the week it became
known that Francis Greyford was coming
down from Bar Harbor to Squirrel island,
apparently for no better reason than that
Miss Morrys was there, those interested
made sure that at last they would be able
to solve this riddle.
Several days passed and envious girls
had grown familiar with the tall, strong
figure Of the new man lounging ON the
piazza near Greta when he was not rowing
or playing tennis with her. There was no
change in Miss Morrys' manner.
There were, Of course, several girls ready

morning he had been heard to ask her to
go rowing, in spite of the stormy sea, be.
cause he liked to be with her where no
body else dared to go.
She had laughed at him caressingly and
looked out at the wind swept ocean
thoughtfully before she answered: "Yes,
let us 60. 1t will be an experience that
will forever after prevent surface acquaint-
ance between us"
Greyford spent the half hour she was
away anxiously watching the water. He
was afraid he had been unwise in asking
her to go out, but when she came down
stairs ready to 60 she was such charming
picture he forgot his anxiety.
"There are, after all, she said, "few
men who arc not commonplace.
"No man is always commonplace, he
replied gravely. "There are times in the
life of even the most ordinary man when
he Is unusual. Those things depend too
much on environment to generalize about
Them"
She gave him a surprised glance, which
he did not notice, for they were close to
the beach now, and his eyes were on the
sen, gray and Opaque, mirroring the
gloomy sky above 1t.
Short, crisp waves broke on the sandy
shore and Tapped against the boathouso
while, farther out, the waves were choppy
and fecked with white caps.

II should not have asked you to go.
Look at that sky and wind. 1t is going

hour

him through half closed lids. elbow does

He gave her wrathful glance and mov-
ed away to the boat waiting on the beach.
