about all. When I'd spoiled the best part of an
hour on local full of commuters and low-cut high
proWs, who killed time playin whist and cussn the
road, l was dumped down at a cute little station
about big enough for lemonade stand. AS the cars
went OFT drew in long breath Say, I'd got off
just IN time to escape ben carried into Connecticut
jumps into a canOpy-top surrey that looks like it
had been stored in open lot ali winter and asks
the driver if he knows where Nightingale Cottage is
MCCabe'S bought"
DO tell" says 1. We'll, cart me out to the
front gate and put off,
1t was nice ride. If it had been mile longer I'd
had facts enough for town history. Drivn
depot carriage was just side issue with that Prim-
rose blossom. ConVersin was his long suit. He tore
OH information by the yard, and Slung it the
seat-back at me like one of these megaphone lee
turers the rubber-neck wagons. AcCOrdin' to
him, Aunt Nellie had been a good deal of a She
hermit.
Why" says he, Major Curtis Binger told me
himself that in the five years he lived neghbOrs to
her he hadn't seen her mOre'n once or twice They
say she hadn't been out of her yard for ten years up
to the time she went abroad for her health and died
of it"
Anyone that could live in this town that long
and not die couldn't have tried very hard says l.
Who's this Major Binger?"
oh, he's retired army officer the major is;
widOwer with two daughters - saws he.
"Singletons?" says l.
Yep, and likely to stay SO" says he.
About then he turns in between a couple of fancy
drive, and lands the front steps of Nightingale
Cottage. For the kind, it want bad-One of
those squatty bay-windowed affairs, with roof
like toboggan chute, porch that did almost
whole lap around outside, and a cobblestone Chin
ney that had vines CROWN clear to the top And
sure enough, there was Dennis Whaey with his rake,
comm a grin he knew how.
Well he has me in tow in about minute, and l
makes personally conducted tour of me estate.
Say, all l thought l gettin' a couple of
buildin' lots; but III be staggered if there want
slice of ground most as big as Madison Square Park,
with trees, and shrubbery and posy beds, and
din!y little paths looPin' the loop all around Out
back was stable and goosb'ry- bushes and
truck garden.
"How's thin for cabbages?" says Dennis.
They look more like boutonniers, says l. But
he goes to tell how they'd just been set out
and wouldn't be life-size till fall. Then he shows

If you stand for the punk performance II make
at progressive euchre and CrOquet you can put me
on the Saturday night sublist, for awhile ANYWAY"
Now say was layin' out to do the neighborlv for
the best that in me; but it seemed to hit the
Major wrong. He turned about two shades pinker,
COughed twice. and then got a fresh hold.
I'm afraid you fail to grasp the situation, Mr..
McCabe," says he. You see, we lead very quiet
life here in Primrose Park, very domestic life AS
for myself, have two daughters"
Chic, chic Major!" says l, pokin him gentle in
the ribs with me thumb Don't you try to sick any
girls me, I'll taze to the tall timber. I'm no
lady's man. not littsc bit"
Then the explosion came. For a minute thought
one of them Frisco ague spells had come east The
Major turns plum color, blows up his cheeks, and
bugs his eyes out. When the language flows it was
like turnin fire-pressure hydrant. An assistant
district attorney summn up for the State in a
der trial didn't have OOk-in with the Major. What
did | mean-1ne, a rOugh-hOuse sCrapper from the
red-light section-by buttin' into a peaceful COM
munity and insultin' the oldest nhabitant? Didn't
have no sense of decency? Did suppose respecta-
BILE people were gOin' to stand for such?

You're known as Shorty McCabe, aren't your"
says he.

Then there's no mistake" says he. "What will
you take, cash down, for this property and clear out
now"
Say, Major" says I, do you think it would
blight the buds poison the air much if hung
till Monday morning? That is unless you've got the
tar all hot and the rail ready"
That fetched a grunt out of him. Z" All we desire
70 do, sir" says he, lis to maintain the respecta-
bilitv of the neighborhood."
