1t seemed to Travers that life really
began for him when he came TO Lester
to superintend the building of the cleo
trio, works, for until then life had been
uneventful. and he had not known of
Ada Knowlton.
Even now he merely knew of her.
for TrAvers was not ladies' man. He
was too terribly in earnest to shine in
society, and. though he had been in
Lester for nearly two months, he seem
ed as far from his goal as ever. Every
Sunday he went to church and sat
where he could watch the choir where
Ada sang, the stained glass forming a
background for the shapely golden
head. The Rev. Josiah Rumford watch

all through the sermon. He could not
notice that the keen blue eyes of the

rather than upon the pulpit. and he
felt gratifed that he should hold his
auditor so well.

the newcomer.

of missing a train.
My features relaxed: my eyes re-
turned to the vicinity of their sockets;

the picnic he should meet Miss Knowl-
ton, and meeting Miss knowlton had
almost become an obsession with him.
He climbed over the stagings and plat
forms with light heart as he imagin-
ed the manner in which they should
meet. He rather fancied an introduce
ton under the trees. He would adj
vance with barred head and bow low
over her hand. Then she would give
him one of those sunny smiles that al
most seemed to be her habitual express
sion. and they would go walking to-.
gether in the leafy shade Over and
over he mentally rehearsed this scene
until it became almost real to him.
But at the last moment there came
q complication at the factory, and it
was after IL when Travers finally got
away. He lost his way trying to
drive out in a livery buggy, and when
at last he came to the lake lunch was

one in sight, but Ada Knowlton was
nowhere to he seen.
He made himself agreeable to the
others. but his eyes continually sought
sight of the pink dress and golden
head that had been the attraction. He
had seen them drive past on their way
to the lake. and he had carefully noted
the dress, but not glimpse of it did
he get until well along in the after
noon.
Here and there the surface of the
lake was dotted with small boats and
canoes, and in one of the latter he
saw the flash of pink that seemed to
communicate its color to his face Miss
Knowlton, and alone! And she was
padding in to the landing.
With assumed carelessness, he di-
rected his steps toward the tiny. wharf
to which the boats were tied. He
would be on hand to assist her from
the canoe. and perhaps after he had
introduced himself there might be
