A Pretty Good Plan.

If you see tall fellow ahead of the
 crowd A leader of men marching fearless and
 proud, And you know of tale whose mere
 telling aloud Would cause his proud head to in
 anguish be bowed, It's a pretty good plan to forget it. If you know of skeleton hidden away In a closet, and guarded and kept from
 the day. In the dark, and whose showing, whose
 sudden display Would cause gIief and sorrow and life
 long dismay It's pretty good plan to forget it. If you know of spot in the life of a
 friend, tWe all have such spots concealed,
 world without end,) Whose touching his heart strings
 would play on and rend, Till the shame of its showing no mere
 glieving could mend, It's a pretty good plan to forget It. If you know of thing that will darken
 the Joy Of man or a woman, a girl or a boy, That will wipe out a smile CT the least
 way annoy A fellow, or cause any gladness 10 cloy, It's pretty good plan to forget it. If you know of thing, just the least
 little sin, Whose telling would cork up the laugh
 or the grin Of d man you don t like, for Lord sake,
 keep it in, Don't be knocker right here stick a
 pin It's pretty cood plan to forget it.

MIN. Sne wore the same dress she had
worn that Sunday of their tryst-that
exquisite dress, with the faint lavender
overtint, like the tender colors of the
beautiful day he made his own. She
had not worn it since, and he was far
distant when he caught the first flick
ering glimpse of her through the lower
branches of the naples, but he remem-
bered. And again, as on that day, he
heard a PARKWAY, ineffable music, the
elfand horns, sounding the mysterious
reveille which had Weakened his soul to
her, coming.
She came to the gate to meet him and
gave him her hand in greeting without
word = or the need of one-frcm
either. Then together they set forth
over the sun fecked pavement, the
naples swishing above them, heavier
branches grooming in the strong breeze,
under a sky like Della Robbia back
ground. And up against the glorious
blue Of it some laughing, invisible god
was blowing small rounded clouds OF
pure cotton, as children blow thistle
down.
When he opened her parasol as they
came out into the broad sunshine be-
yond upper Main street there was the
faintest mingling of wild roses and Gin

CHAPTER XVI.

v We woke to the Ginning of bells,
- and as his eyes slowly opened
the sorrowful people of q
a n dream, who seemed to be
bending over him. weeping, swan back
Into the darkness of the night whence
they had come and returned to the I'M
perceptible, leaving their shadows in
bis heart Slowly he rose, stumbled
into the outer room and released the
huttering shade, but the sunshine,
springing like a golden lover through
the open window, only dazzled him and
found no answering gladness to greet
1t or Joy in the royal day it heralded.
1t would be an hour at least before
time to start to church. when Ariel eX-
pected him. He stared absently up the
street then down and, after that. be
gan slowly to walk in the latter direc-
ton with no very active consciousness
or care of where he went, He bad
fallen into a profound reverie, so deep
that when he had crossed the bridge
and turned into dusty road which
ran along the river bank he stopped
mechanically beside the trunk Of fall
en- sycamore and. lifting his bead for
the first time since he had set out,
looked about him with melancholy
perplexity, little surprised to mo
himself there.
For this was the spot where he had
first seen the new Ariel, and on that
fallen sycamore they had sat together.
Remember, across Main street bridge
at noonw And JOe's cheeks burned
as he recalled why he had not under
stood the clear voice that had haunted
him. But that shame had fallen from
him; she had changed all that, as she
had changed so many things. He sank
down in the long grass, with his back
against the log, and stared out over the
fields of tall corn shaking in steady
wind all the way to the horizon.
Changed so many thingsY he SAID
half aloud "Everything! All, yes
she had changed the whole world for
Joseph Louden-at his first sight OF
her! And now 1t seemed to him that
he was to lose her. but not in the
way he had thought.
Almost from the very first he had
the feeling that nothing so beautiful
as that she should stay In Canaan
could happen to him. He was sure
that she was but for the little while
that her coming was like the flying
petals of which he had told her.
Changed so many thingsT
The bars that had been, between nm
and half OF his world were down. shat
tered, never more to be replaced. and
the ban Of Canaan was lifted. Could
this have been save for herr And upon
that thought he got to his feet, utter
ing an exclamation Of bitter self re-
proach, asking himself angrily what ne
was doing. He knew how much she
gave him. what full measure Of her ar
fectlon. Was not that enough? Out
upon you, Louden! Are you to sulk In
your tent. dour In the gloom. or to play
mans part. and II she be happy TURF
, CHEEKY face upon her JOY?
And thus this pilgrim recrossed the
bridge, emerging to the street with his
head up, smiling, and his shoulders
thrown back, so that none might see
the burden he carried.
