amongst the lawn-decked beauties of
the place, was tired, remorseful and
"broke." Thursday, having counted
his small change and telephoned home
for enough money TO pay his bill, he
determined 10 leave on the Saturday
night boat He told himself that the
summer girls of North Harbor had
"worked him TO a finish" He called
himself "a mark" and vowed that
thereafter he would "vacate" in some
trackless, primeval forest, where the
wiles Of women penetrate not and
where high balls and penny ante are
remote and uncanny memories.
Then he met Miss Glendennin and
the whole face Of nature was changed.
The dowdy little summer resort be
came paradise; he yearned TO prolong
his visit: the horizon suddenly expand
ed, the skies lifted and he noticed the
pungent perfume Of young summer In
the air. But he was broke-fiat broke,
and rhapsodlze as he might about her
beauty her gentlcness, her evident re-
gard for himself, he could not see any
way TO cash on the dellrium. He had
met her twice and was sure he had
"made an impression" There could
he no doubt as to what she had done,
for Steve had not known her n day
when he was telegraphing to his house
for permission 10 extend his vacation.
They said "No" very curtly, and hc
moped. Jerry Mowatt, who had come

But when Saturday came and he had

Caldwell couldn't make up his mind to

paid his last So TO the hotel clerk and
