pulse to comfort her. cat least your
work will be beneficial to somebody.
I'm afraid as much cannot be said of
Milly's."
1t was decidedly the p~leasantest
thing he had said to her. She blushed
with qualification. She was looking
especially handsome that night. Take
it altogether, the last two days had
been full of unusual excitement. First,
Mrs. Warren's visit, then the coming
of her new guests, after that her ride
with Fielding, and o the proud
sense of acting hostess to two real
swells." She glanced up shyly while
Fielding was talking, but dropped hcr
eyes under the steady inspection of his.
1t was the crude action of a girl.
At that moment HE wa thinking:
"She is un~questionahly a beautiful
woman. If she had had Milly's
chances what a swath she would cut
in New York society,""
She was thinking: "Nowis my time
to propose my plan. If they agree to
it life will be lots jollier to me than
it ever has been before"
She folded her hands over the neck
of Mrs. McNab's gown, and caught
her breath quickly. There was some
thing rather imposing in the self-pos-
session of this brother and sister, and
poor little Harriet felt herself quite
open to their criticism, which, though
%inaudible, was liable to be severe.
She plunged somewhat clumsily into
what she had to say: "It's dreadful
jolly to have you folks here tonight.
l don't know when I've enjoyed an eve
ming so much"
Mildred poised her ivory needles re-
fectively. at must be very lonely for
you after ~nightfall," she said sympa-
~th.tically.
ut is dreadful. l didn't know how
lonely it was till you came. Mrs. Far
indale has only been dead six weeks,
you know, and I've been SO took up
with matters of business"-that with q
little lifting of her head-"that I've
not had any time to think much about
myself. But yesterday"-here she rose
to shade Mildred's eyes a little more
securely from the lamp glare-"Dr.
Warren's wife came over here, and she
just told me up and down that 1 could
mt go on living like l was. Said l was
too young and" She laughed hys-
terically and gave Mrs. McNab's
sleeves a very uncalled for shake.
"Too handsome" Fielding supplied
the hiatus with calm %effrontery.
Mrs. Monette blushed and ~giggled:
did anybody ever see such a man?
But, that is exactly what she did say,
not that there was a bit of call for it.
I'm 81 years old and 1 amt hurt with
good looks"
Mrs. Fielding frowned severely at her
brother. He interpreted it into a pro-
hibition of any levity at their hostess
expense.
Harriet went on in nervous haste:
Anyways, she succeeded in making me
sorter timidsome about staying on here
with Jimmie and his wife all alone by
myself, so, when you two came, right

CHAPTER VI.


The tail banquet lamp with the red
silk shade was lighted that night for
the first time since Sadie Farindale's
death. 1t had been her especial charge
and, with the piano, had been a part
Of the luggage brought from "home" at
Some expense and more trouble.
That night when Harriet was trim
ming the wick the half-forgotten sense
of ministration anne back to her not
u~npleasantly. She rolled the great
chintz-covered easy chair up to the
lamp. Sadie used to like it so. She
wondered If Miss Fielding did fancy
work. Sadie always had a piece on
hand. Her own work could hardly be
called parlor work. 1t was the finish
ing of a gay print gown for Mrs. Nc
Nab, whose form was built on a gen.
erous plan. When Harriet took her
seat near the tall lamp and spread her
work over her knees she made a bril-
liant spot of color in the little room.
Supper was over and, by her per-
mission, Fielding had lighted a cigar.
He cast a futile glance about him in
search of a book case. Evidently the
Farindales had not been book-worms.
WITHOUT quite compromising the
seaching look semi about her best
room, Mrs. Monette was vaguely aware
that something was lacking. 1t gave
her a pang of disappointment.
Maybe you play backgammon" she
said, glancing toward a corner
"etagere." where the dingy black and
red box was visible.
FieldingSs silky brown mustache
twitched slightly. "Thank you, no."
"Or checkers?"
NO" with a suppressed shudder.
HIm afraid my education was fright
fully neglected in my youth. Chess is
the only game l ever mastered"

sense to learn it. MI. Farindale and
Lawyer Martin used to play it by the
hour. And We had to be as mute as
mice all the while. / never took to
chess. I've got some men here,
though, il you and Miss Fielding want
to play"
Miss Fielding answered for herself.
1--WE wouldn't think of being so selfish.
Resides, I have work to do" And set
k.herself comfortably in Sadie's

whose shoulders it will ever adorn."
Its real pretty" Harriet looked at
1t e~nyiously. Mrs. McNab's calico
dress impressed her all of a sudden as
being disgustingly big and common.
That's real lady-like work. Every
thing you do is lady-like. I never had
time when I was young to take up any
fancy stitches"
There was such a wistful look in her
lovely eyes that Fielding felt the i'm

She raised tho cornet to her lips and
dropped it again:
Let all the earth keep silence be-
fore Him. I guess things mean
more to some people than they do to
Others. I'd like to learn of her. She's
nearer to the angels than / am.
guess she's never lived so close to the
gutter"
The thought struck a d~iscordant
note in her breast. The reverent
hush of her attitude was dispeled. She
raised the cornet and played one of
MI. Farindale's favorites. Sweet
Hour of Prayer"
When she had finished it there were
tears in her eyes. She did not know
| why or whence they came. AS she
turned to replace the cornet on its
hook in the hall, she started with ur-
prise. Fielding was standing in the
| doorway. He smiled at her c~onsterna-
| ton: you told me you were a very
early riser. you know. and it would
never do for my mistress to find me a
laggard."
You'll spoil everything if you're go
ing to be that rigid with yourself and

She laughed nervously 81 guess

and after this morning l won't. That
was our way Of starting things.
Things are in your hands now" She
flung him a rougish look to which he
answered gravely and simply:
81 sincerely hope you will not regret
putting them there; I have forewarned
you of my total inexperience."
She made a gesture of impotence.
Il thought we had got past all the ifs
and butts last night. l made an ar

He looked beyond her contempla-
lively, then consulted his watch. IF I

I should like to follow the creek for a
mile or two" he said inconsequently.
She answered in her primmest man.

Fielding smiled as he passed through
the gate. His employer was not be-

mountain air acted as wine upon him.
He swung out Of sight in an incredi-
bly, short space of time with never a
backward glance at the small black

light stick in his hand. and as he
walked he thrashed the short sparse
grass from their exuberant Vitality.
Harriet dropped into one OF the big
arm chairs that flanked the front door.
A chill seemed to have fallen upon the

all the earth keep silence before Him."

dawn of the next day. Back there in
