CHAPTER XII,

There was one spot in Apologize coun-
ty which, in spite of the difficulties at
tending every undertaking and the gen.
eral upheaval Of the old order Of things,
took on a fresh lease Of life and activ-
ity. This was Belhaven, now the home
of Mr.. Dennis Whitney.
Carpenters, painters, upholsterers,
landscape gardeners and various other
sorts of artisans who live by the necessi-
ties of the rich, Observation-Disclosures
from whence no one knew-immediate-
ly on the heels Of Marianne s evacuation,
until now, at the expiration Of few
months, the old place wore the dir Of a
fashionable city belle, languishing for
the want Of associates.
Mr.. Dennis Whitney had achieved a
triumph artistically. He had brought
to bear upon the making Of his new
home all the knowledge Of the elegant
side of life picked up BY quick pefosp-
ton in various quarters Of the globe.
His billiard room was modelled upon
one he in common with lot Of other
tourists had been permitted to examine
in the chateau Of real nobleman in
the south Of France. The old Belhaven
dining room had touches Of Moorish Or
namentation, vaguely suggestive Of the
Alhambra. The great central hallway
was divided in two by tapestry por-
there's which might easily pass for sobe.
lin in the absence Of any critic who had
ever seen the real thing. 1t was all very
fine, even II q little mixed, but it threat
ened to prove lacking in that element
Of sweetness which can only be distill-
cd from perfected revenge.
There was really nothing left for him
to do either to the old house or the
grounds Immediately surrounding it.
Everything was in perfect order. His
freshly whitewashed cabins in the quar-
ter lot were full to OVERLOOKING with
new tenants, to whom he paid wages.
The novelty Of compensation for services
rendered in those days of freshly broken
shackles brought to his doors drove
of bewildered creatures, tentatively try
ing their great gift Of freedom to see
what amount Of strain it would bear.
Actually there was nothing left for
him to do by way Of preparation for that
paying off Of old scores which he had
spent SO many years waiting for. The
AoasA marvel Of splendor, was in the
hands of trained corps Of domestics
imported. The plantation was running
along in its new grooves with smooth.
ness calculated to make the head Of
an old time planter swim"
The chief misfortune Of Mr.. Whit.
ney's life at that juncture was that
there was none Of the old time plant
ers' heads within reach, no men for him
to loaf about little Potts wareroom
doors with, discussing crops and the
money market, as old Tony Belknap and
the others had done in those leisurely
bygone days when he, Dennis, The de-
spised son Of a plebeian overseer, had
been SCARED for life for striking . gen.

Yes, doubtless, and one might for

sweetness. He has spent his life, sup

Whitney had scratched a match to
light his cigar. He let it go out while
his sister was describing the old man.
He lighted another in reflective silence.
Presently he looked at Mrs Grosvenor
with contracted brows.
II wish you would try to remember
something more about your old saint,
Betty-his name, for instance.

CHAPTER XIII.

The dust gathered thick Oh the shelves
Of little Potts storerooms. They were
empty shelves, so little dust or great
deal was no ofPense to them. Miss Mela-
ME and the girls had conscientiously
dispensed the contents Of all the boxes
and barrels until there were no contents
to dispense, and then old Timothy Drew
had carted the boxes and barrels about
for kindling wood, freely given to
whomsoever needed.
Men were scarce in those days, and
old Timothy placed higher estimate
upon himself with every one that passed.
"Me an Parson Brownell an Jim
Ford, the one eyed druggist, together
with lot of kids in jackets that don't
count, is about all that's left. So you
better make the most Of us.
And his toothless gums cleaned red
with mirth over the manless situation.
A staryeling mule, strayed from no
one knew whence, with no master to
claim him, had nibbled the long benches
that furnished the gallery in front Of
the store until their edges showed white
and serrated-not at all fit now for the
lounging places Of such jolly loafers as
the colonel, Thatcher and the rest Of
little Potts best customers. Wanton
hands had made targets of the dusty
windows until scarcely whole pane Of
glass remained. A more dismal spot
could hardly be found in all Cloverdell.
Weeds grew rank in Mrs. Phipps'
flower garden in those days.
Mrs. Phipps' garden used to be a
blossoming reproach to every sluggard
in the town. No one stopped now to
cast admiring or envious glances over
the ornamental palings that fenced it
away from its plebeian neighbors Of
the vegetable garden. No one noticed
the insolent jamestown weeds that were
crowding out her pansies or the wild
camomile, lifting its coarse head above
her neapolitan violets. Everybody's
garden was a weedy wreck in those
days, so no one could cast stone at
his neighbor. There were things of SO
much more importance to be looked aft.
er, to be grieved over"
What did she care for pansies or
violets, when she did not even have the
satisfaction Of knowing whether the box
containing those remarkable damask
shirts and bedticking trousers had ever
reached Mr.. Phipps and the boys?
The grass grew bravely in the streets
Of Cloverdell in those oommerceless
times. There were no teams hauling op.
ulent loads Of cotton bales from the
plantations to the steamboat landing,
no drays rafting through its bustling
main street with casks Of ice or cargoes
Of fruit. Cloverdell gentry had lived
high once upon time.
Women gathered closer together and
tried to speak words Of comfort, which
died on the lips for want Of sustenance
from the heart. The story Of their hard.
ships waxed old. Ingenuity in the con-
triving Of substitutes for the daily neces-
aaries of life had become commonplace

Mrs. Grosvenor brought the tips of
ker taper fingers together and watched
the smoke wreaths floating above her
brothers. head. Presently she said, more
as if to herself than to him:

allotted to woman in lifetime"

Once in a great while an uncertain

sharpshooters would percolate through
the enemy's lines to make or mar the
day for some wife or mother.
This condition of deadly stagnation
began to tell on Miss Melanie's temper.
Ollie found her one morning drawing
on her gloves with an energy that
amounted 30 Spite There were traces Of
tears on the little woman's cheeks and
her lips were tightly compressed as if
she were suppressing their fresh flow.
"Where to now, auntie?" said Ollie,
twining sympathetic arm around Miss
Melanies waist.
"I'm going down to the store. Idon t
think we overlooked anything the last
time we had distribution, but there
may be something left on some of the
top shelves, and as long as I am doing

together"
1t was a common sight, the three
Potts "girls" on their way to the ware
rooms at the other end of town, and
they were greeted by many nod and
scrap of conversation in their progress.
Rumors of great battle had foated to
ears ever attent, and everybody was seek
ing affirmation or denial from everybody
else in confused, bewildered fashion.
Olivia drew in her breath with a
gasp when they had safely passed the
last questioner.

set me to screaming right there on the
street."

Miss Melanie in solemn voice. II

reaching out blindly for comfort. -" +.
II think your comparison very poor
one, my dear. What on earth is that?''
They had come in sight of the store.
Miss Melanie had been the first one to
catch glimpse Of dark object filling
one of the serrated benches.
'It's man." said Julia, stretching
her eyes wide with establishment.

courthouse was dissolved in solemn
silence. Little Potts, who yesterday had
crept around town with detected mien
and in forlorn loneliness, was the hero
of the hour. Destiny deals largely in
irony.
