vided his days into mornings for work,
afternoons for fishing and rambling
through the woods and gay little chats
with Miss Penelope and her father
after supper.
Miss Penelope forgot the shyness for
which she was noted and talked of the
things she had read and dreamed
about for years as If she had actually
lived them. Returning from school ten
years before, she had not found the
average youth of the community con-
genial. Her natural timidity and ret
icence had been mistaken for hauteur,
and not one of the country swains had
possessed the courage TO ask her to go
for the customary drives or to the
yearly ice cream festival.
She had tended her flower garden, d.
rected the management Of her fathers
farm and for amusement had lived in
a world OF books and magazines. The
only love of her life was worship or
Rudolph Rassendyil after reading The
Prisoner OF Zenda." She unconscious
ly adapted her style Of dress to the
lines that she thought would have suit
ed the slenderness of Queen Flavia
and never realized that she was dream
ing her life away.
To Holmes she talked freely-of her
fancies, OF his work, of anything that
the moment prompted, and he had un-
consciously added touch of her to
the quaint heroine of his book.
''I.et me read you the last three
chapters" he said one evening when
the rain had driven them indoors from
the flower garden and the hammock
under the trees. 1T always sounds
tonceited for a writer to want to read
his own works, but believe l have
given the exact touch to this, and
want to see how Il strikes you"

She greeted her first and only board
er with & shy dignity.
II think you will find 1t quiet enough
here, Mr.. Holmes. You said in your
letter that you wanted to get away
from home and the children while you
finished your book"
John Holmes put his suit case down
on the veranda and took the huge
rocker offered by Miss Penelope's COL
ored servant, Aunt Dilsey.
'It looks nice and quiet" he said,
taking in the gorgeous coloring of the
trees and the old fashioned flower gar
den, now gay with dahlias and gerani-
ums. II think l will be able to work
after day or so of rest and wander

He went upstairs to the front bed
room, rather pleased that he would
have for company at supper pleasing
woman of perhaps thirty instead Of
the middle aged farmers wife whom
his imagination had pictured.
Miss Penelope, giving final touch
to her supper table, with its centerpiece
Of brilliant fall blossoms. talked to her
blind father. "If it's quiet he wants,
