That was Purdy and Valentine.
and they was only half brothers
at that, with nobody that they
could look up to for anything
more substantial than sympathy.
So it was up to the stepaunt to
do the rescue act.
Well, Isabella has accumu-
lated all kinds of dough; but
she figures out that the whole of
one half brother was about all
she wanted as souvenir to take
home from dear old England.
She looks the two of 'em over
for day, tryin' to decide which
to take, and then Purdy's 'lasses
colored hair wins out against
Valentines brick dust bangs.
She finds a job for Vally, a place
where he can almost earn Twin,
gives him a nice new prayer
book and her blessin', and cuts
him adrift in the fog Then she
grabs Purdy by the hand and
catches the next boat for New
York.
From then on it's all to the
downy for Purdy, barrin' the
fact that the old girls more or
less tryin' to the nerves. She
buys herself double breasted
house just off the avenue, gives
Purdy the best there is goin, and
encourages him to be as ladylike
as he knows how. And say, what

good as sayln they re more ornamental than useful
Anyway, that descriptions close fit for Purdy.
First off l couldn't stand for Purdy at all. He's
one of these natty. band box chappies, with straw
UP from dive, and a costume that looks
if it might have been copied from stained glass
window. You've seen them hemae symphonies in
grayS and browns, with everything matched up,
from their shirt studs to their shoe buttons? Now,
l don't mind mans bein swell dresser-Ive got
few hot vests mysef-but this tryin to be Mr..
Pastele is runnin the thing into the ground.
Purdy could stand all the improvin the tailor
could hand him, though. His eyes was popped just
enough to give him continual surprised look, and
there more less of his face laid out in
Course, he want to blame for that; but just the
same, when he gets to comm to the studio twice

trust myself to hit around that proper. But
Swiftly him right. Them clothes of Purdys
had got Swiftly goin', and he wouldn't have mussed
him for farm.
After I'd got used to seem Purdy around, 1
didn't mind him so much myself. He seemed to be
well meanin', quiet, sisterly sort of duck, one
of the kind that fills in the at afternoon teas
and wears out three pairs of pumps every winter
leadin' cotillions. You'll see his name fgurin' in
the society notes: how Mrs Burgess Jones gave
dinner dance Sherrys for the younger set and the
cotillon was led by Mr. Purdy Bligh Say, hows
that as steady job for grown man; Ell?
But so long as I'm treated square by anyone, and
am don't feel any call to let EN- in on my private
thoughts. So Purdy and me gets along first rate;
and the next thing know he's calm me Shorty,
and bein' as glad to see when he comes in as if
l was of his old pals. How you goin to dodge
a thing of that kind? And then fore knows what's

was on his way back to the iv'rv

him to stop off in New York and
say howdy to Aunt Isabella and

anything but Valentine since"
says Purdy.

Stashy up with Valentine instead
of Purdy was only part Her idea
was to induce Vally to settle down
with her, and ship Purdy off to
look after the iv'ry job.

you can't even find it on the
chart. I'd die if had to live in such

very plainly what she expected me
to do, began to get desperate

Grenier, endowed by nature with an

presence of the woman he loved.
But he did ask a servant who it was
