Dorothy, with Il suspicion of a tear in

Dorothy. He never could understand.

and a pigeons breast. That would be

Dorothy did not care if it was his

where else. There We're plenty of 9TH

But even Dorothy admitted it was

twice about the tables. A ripple of
laughter ran through the dining room
and then the sound of clapping hands.
But when the bird suddenly perched,
exhausted, on the rim of Miss Dorothy
Van Tuyrs hat an ominous and expect
ant hush fell on the room.
Mother! Dick! What shall | do?"
whispered that much distressed young
lady, her face turning scarlet as she re-
allied the seriousness of the situation.
Take it back" suggested Dick wick
eddy.
Call the waiter, dear, Of course
said Mrs. Van Tuyl coldly.
In the meantime Jacks sparrow had
dropped from Dorothy's hat rim to her
shoulder. 1t perchcd there 4 minute,
with its head on one side, looking very
wise, and then hoped staggcringly
along the girls slim shoulder until it
nestled comfortably but impcrtncntIy
between n golden marten boa and a
warm, pink neck. AS it did so the neck
grew several shades pinkcr. Dorothy
knew the entire room was watching
her and the bird. 1t was a most humil-
iating position. Still it was all one
could expect from a person like Mr..
Hills!
"Waitcr, will you please take away
aw-this animal| said Reggie Wilt
son-Smith as their waiter appeared
with the conSomme.
Dorothy slipped her warm fingers
about the bird. Then, in sudden ardor
of affection of which she felt ashamed
she pressed the throbbing little feath-
cred body against her scarlet check.
Just what it cost Miss Dorothy Van
Tuyl to do that significant act only
those few persons who fully under
stood the character of that tumultu-
ouSly affcctionatc and lovably arrogant
young lady could ever know.
Jack Hills, watching with alarm and
CONSERVATION the flight of his bird. saw
the act and took heart from it. Still, it
was his duty to himself not 10 say the
first word or to make the first advance.
Il beg your pardon. Miss Van Tuyl
but | am afraid my sparrow has been
annoying you. Shall | relieve you of
the intudrr?'
Jack tried to speak in his Quictcst
and most noncommittal voice. hut for
the life Of him he could not prevent Il
quavcr from coming in it,
Dorothy strokcd the bird softly with
her hand. Reggie Wilson Smith. to
his disgust and astoniShmcnt. saw how

'IIc feels so at home here, poor little
fellow, that | feel tempted to keep

sure she spoke in her very coolest
tones She was positive there was
nothing conciliatory in what she Lad
said. No; she could never love him as
she had once loved him

Dorothy thought that Jack was max.

more than half Il hundred watching
eyes were fixed on her, and the thought
did not cOnducc to her happiness.

bravcly looking down at her plate.
Still Jack would not take step near

she could catch. Then suddenly she
would burst out with, I'm spell fly

satisfaction and ending in a hearty
and long continued laugh.
In the early morning. when her cage
was opened to give her liberty, she
would walk about for a time. climb the
stairs to the children's room and crawl
into their beds before time for rising.
Coffee was almost absolutely necessary

length of time spent In waiting order

She turned TO reply. facing the ques-

laugh. But she got the coffee.
