In the garden shafts of white light
pierced the bordering trees and fell
where June roses breathed the mild
night breeze, and here, through sum-
mer spells, the editor of the Herald
and the lady who had run to him at
the pasture bars strolled down a path
trembling with shadows to where the
creek tinkled over the pebbles They
walked slowly, with an air of being
well accustomed friends and comrades,
and for some reason it did not strike
either of them as unnatural or extraor-
binary. They came to a bench on the
bank, and he made great fuss dust
ing the seat for her with his black
SLOUGH hat. Then he regretted the hat
1t was shabby old hat of Carlow
county fashion.
It was a long bench, and he seated
himself rather remotely toward the
end opposite her, suddenly realizing
that he had walked very close to her
coming down the narrow garden path
Neither knew that neither had spoken
since they left the veranda, and it had
taken them a long time to come
through the little orchard and the gar
den. She rested her chin on her hand,
leaning forward and looking steadily
at the creek. Her laughter had quite
gone; her attitude seemed a little visit
full and little sad. He noted that her
hair curled over her brow in a way he
had not pictured in the lady of his
dreams. This was so much prettier.
He did not care for tall girls. He had
not cared for them for almost half an
hour. 1t was SO much more beautiful
to be dainty and small and piquant.
He had no notion that he was signing
in a way that would have put a fur
mace to shame, but he turned his eyes
from her because he feared that if he
looked longer he might blurt out some
speech about her loneliness. His

Both of them laughed wildly.

triumphantly.

the veranda, and Miss Briscoe called
to him in welcome. AS his tall figure
stood out plainly in the bright light
against the white dust a streak of fire
leaped from the elder blossoms, and
there rang out the sharp report of a
rifle. There were two screams from
the veranda. One white figure ran into
the house. The other, a little one with
a gauzy wrap streaming behind, came
flying out into the moonlight straight
