Two weeks before Christmas came a
cordial letter from Blanch reminding
Alice of her promise to visit her dur

ton from Mrs. Mason. Alice replied to
both in due form and with profuse
thanks, also stating that she had prom
ised her brother she would visit him
during her vacation, and hoped to have
time.
Alice 1nclosed both notes to her broth
er and told him he had best inform
the Nasons of her intended visit in a
matter Of fact way. But" she added,
do not let on that you know they
have invited me to visit them. We
will do just as we talked-go there and
spend one or. two evenings, or perhaps
I may meet them at theater, which
would be much better
of sobedience and sizable check. "Use
it all, my dear SIS" he wrote, land for
your own needs, too. l do not want
you to feel ashamed of your. gowns
when you come to Boston" -. =,
"Bless his dear heart" said Alice
when she read the letter, what prize
that island girl will get in hfm!'
When Christmas came and she
kissed Aunt Susan goodby, she was
near giving up the trip altogether. 1t
may have been the sad face of her
aunt that brought the irresolution, or
feeling that meeting Frank would
reawaken the little heartache she had
for FIVE months been trying to conquer.
When she reached Boston she was met
by her brother. -

What a gallant. escort that brother
was, and what a change from the dull
monotony Of her home life those days
were to Alice. e--
| They visited art galleries mornings,
and devoted the afternoons and even.

best was to be had, and little chat in

that she noticed some Of the pictures

claimed. And turning to her brother
she repeated, "Who is E.T.?" &$ ....r .r' ',- a
"WeA" he answered, II will take
you down to the island some time and
introduce you to her. She will be glad

Then the brief history Of this girl,
as her brother had told it, came to her.

ashore from, was it, Bert? And can
she paint like that? Why, 1 am as
tonished! And. who is the girl leaning
on the rock? What an exquisitely
nodded figure and what pretty pose!
Who Is she?"
"That is your possible sister-in-law,' >"
answered Albert, with touch Of
pride, 'and the pictures were done by

tails go, only failed to catch her ex-
pressive face in the one that shows

Alice, with a roguish look. ''Made her

"No, 1 am sorry to say I have not

we'd better wait until spring.
The next day he Informed her be had
secured a box at theater for that
evening and had invited the Nasons to
join them Il thought it would relieve
your mind a little, Alice" he added, "to
meet your bogy on neutral ground"
Mrs. Mason was long way from be-
ing the naughty specter Alice had con-
jured up. That a country schoolmaanl
was proud enough to discourage her
sons attentions because of the differ
ence in their positions awakened her
curiosity. II should like to meet Miss
Page" she said to Blanch when the
latter had asked if she might invite her
to visit them. "A girl that shows the
spirit she does is certainly worth cul-
tivating'
When Alice's cool but polite note
reached Mrs. Mason she was piqued to
even a greater degree of curiosity, and
when Albert's courteous letter invit-
ing "Mrs Mason and family to share
a box at the theater for the purpose Of
meeting my sister, was received she
returned cordial acceptance by bear
er.
To Alice the proposed meeting was
a source of dread, and when the car
riage called for Albert and herself she
was in an excited state of mind. They
had barely taken their seats in the box
when the usher knocked, and Blanch,
followed by the rest of the family, en-
