! AS Tom rode away from the cottage,
bore and disappointed about Olivia and
smarting with sense of defeat, 1t oc-
Cured to him that he was rather glad
he had made that little speech to his
guardian. 1t was like exercising for
ever any fesling OF distrust that might
have been aroused by that crazy nom
sense Of "Mother'' Spillman's. which,
In spite OF him, had obtruded itself
once or twice during the day.
Yes, he would go back to college ear
~ IN the morning. He would not even
wait to see Ollie again. He would start
bn his foreign tour straight from col
1ege. He would measure himself by
broader standards before he should see
her again. He must be without flaw in
her eyes when he should finally ask
her to be his WIFE,"
Not for moment did he relinuuish
That cherished purpose.
And so he rode along under the sweet
smelling laelsts on the shady roadside
revising his beautiful vision, but never
once doubling the final outcome
How silly he had been to flare up in
that style at sight Of Clarence West

explained. He hoped the dear little

CHAPTER <.
ToM's RICHES TAKE WINGS.


When Tom Broxton's two years Of
travel and study on the other side of
the water had nearly expired, two let
tiers crossed each other on the high
seas. One was emphatically and ex-
clusively a love letter, ardent, eff
fusive, persuasive, boyish if you will.
He had written it to Olivia Matthews
as concession to his own heart hun
ger. The other was as emphatically
and exclusively business letter, di-
rect, explicit, hard, convincing. Toms
guardian had mailed it to him on the
very day; he had dispatched his to
Olivia.
Said Thomas in his letter:
Ny Darling ollie--What say to you in this
letter am quite sure is already we'll known to
you'll love you, and want to marry you just
as soon as practicable after my return to Amer
lea. What l mean by practicable you and
Miss Mavina and the dressmakers will best un-
derstand.
When went to tell you goodby, dear, a few
nights after you were thrown from that horse.
you were in OF your exasperating moods, and
went away feeling prickly and downcast. When
tried to tell you how loved you, TO ask you TO
give me some pledge that you would wait for me,
you laughed in my face, called me silly boy
and treated me to some Of those superior airs
that always made my cheeks Jingle as il they had
been boxed

that l was and told you that when next spoke
to you Of love you would be reader to listen all

me with and the need there was for me to meas

monitor and even while chafed and sulked

to please her. But-now he was
pauper. He had no home to take her
to, nothing to support her on. He had
always held in supreme contempt the
man who was willing to marry q wo-
man and involve her in the distress
and privation of an uncertain or even
an inadequate income. He had just
done that despicable thing himself, not
purposely, but ignorantly, rashly, ir-
revocably. y II
Pure. upright and honest to the core

stocks had gone down and investments
had proved disastrous. The man whom
his father had loved and trusted as q
brother must be good and true. To res

was toirefiect on his fathers judgment.
He was incapable Of doing either.
\ He would not answer this letter Inns
mediately.
He wanted to be perfectly calm and
entirely just wh.n he did SO. It would
take him a few days to pull himself
together. The point Of view had been.
altered for him with such violent sud-
denness that it left him quivering and
bewildered, with sense Of irrepara-

He stDun1 rapidly through the door and
up the stdtr,Ddy. ~.
Tom could never attain toba fully de-
~eloped case Of the sulks. He rode
forward whistling SOFTLY. He had all
the quiet roadside to himself.
He would spend this his last evening
In the old Hall writing a long letter to
Ollie. He composed it as he rode
SLOWLY through the weedy bride paths
on the outskirts Of his own lands
switching at the tall Intrusive heads of
sumac and sassafras bushes that
brushed against his stirrups. He
would tell Ollie how impossible it was
for him to go SO far away as Europe
without letting her know. OF his love
and asking her to wait awhile until he
should come back less crude and In
complete, better proportioned for hay-
ing measured himself by other stand
ards. What q churl he had been for
getting SO yexed with her that morn
ing! Everything she said showed her
interest in him, and IL she did prick
him with her little patronizing airs it
was the result Of her, being the sole
companion Of the man who had to
look after him and his interests and
who doubtless had often consulted her.
BY the time he reached the outer
gate to his own parklike Enclosure
Olivia stood absolved in his loyal
heart She was altogether lovely and
trustworthy. He, Tom Broxton, was
an Ill hammered cub. not worthy. to
button her pretty boots. Sun never
shone upon sweeter maiden. 1t was

some sort Of probationary toll to rem

never could be quite worthy of her

bounded joyously. Life was assuming
roster tints with the passing Of, each

where, all for you, Ollie all for you,
my beloved! The breath Of, wild
clematis filled his nostrils; birds 'piped
musically in the larch branches over
his head; splashes Of sunshine fiecked
the brown earth Of the narrow bride
path. He whistled aloud in the full
ness Of his boyish content. At a rapid
canter he swung into the open before
the Hall door.
A strange group clustered about his
front doorsteps sent him forward with
a bound. Jessy was there leaning over
something that lay prone on. the yeran-
da door. Martin, hisaown yard man,
