CHAPTER XXI.
Farewell.

When the traveller came down
stairs again, he found the whole party
assembled in the drawing room.
His rough tweed suit formed a
strange, uncomfortable contrast with
the evening dresses around him. De-
spite his fatiguing evening, he ap-
cared quite fresh and energetic.
Charles Mistley was the only other
person present who did not look worn
and tired; nothing seemed to affect
him.
II think" suggested Winyard,
looking sideways at Lena, that it
would be most appropriate to finish
up the whole entertainment with q
song"
The girl silently went to the piano,
and, after a short search, found a
small manuscript book. Winyard
came up at that moment, and TAX
ing it from her hands, opened 1t at
the unpublished song which she was
singing when he first saw her. 1t
was on the first page Of the book,
written out in a girlish hand, the
notes large and very inky.
Lena began the harp-like accompa-
niment and song. Slightly behind
ner, on low chair, her father sat and
ate cold chicken with an old mans
deliberate enjoyment. VINEYARD, in
his light-colored suit, was perched
on the high end of the sofa, with
his thick boots dangling. Charlie
stood near at hand.
The girl appeared to sing the first
verse with studied disregard for
the meaning Of the words, doing her
best to render them expressionless.
The second, however, she rendered
with more of the true intensity; but
at the end of it she stopped abrupt
ly, and closed the book.
"It is rather too appropriate" she
said, wheeling round and pointedly
addressing Mrs. Mistley.
They talked on in a vague, unin
terested way, as people do at we'd
a curtain to rise, or to kill time while
a ship is sinking beneath their feet.
We are getting very clever nova
days. Soon the flora and fauna of
the world will be exhausted-soon
we will know everything worth know
ing about every animal on earth; but
of certain phases of the human mind
we know no more than Noah knew
of the inward thoughts of Shem,
Ham and Japhet. At last the gravel
outside grated under the light feet
of Lena's mare and the heavier tread
of sleepy groom.
In the meantime, Vineyard had
donned his gloves. He slipped two
fingers beneath the girths, and gave
a preliminary tug at the stirrup
feathers; then he turned to say good
bye.
II expect" he said, "to see you all
in town in a week or SO. We will
not call this goodbye, because / have
not got all my pretty farewell
speeches quite ready. They require
further rehearsals. Do not stand at
the door," he added, With his i'm
perturable cheerfulness. "You will
catch horrible colds, and abuse me
behind my back"

CHAPTER Xxx.
Continued.

They were all working in different
parts Of the old banqueting hall.
which had for the time been con-
verted into a tiny theatre. working,
each in his characteristic way; Win
yard with dashing rapidity; Char
lie with easygoing Indifference, ac-
complishing much without appearing
to exert himself, directing everything
without appearing to have will Of
his own upon any one question.
There was nc fuss, no undue haste
about his movements. AS usual, he
was ahead of his time, and could af-
ford to waste few minutes here and
there with some grave pleasantly.
Colonel Wright was quite content to
occupy subordinate position. He
was ready to lift the bigger flower
pots for Lena. hand the tacks to
Charlie, or climb up ladder with a
hammer for Wnyard. 1t was during
the last named service, when they
were both perched high up on lad
der, that Winyard impaired to his
chief the news he had just received.
II have just heard" he said, in
low voice, as he took the hammer,
that oar foreign friends have left
Walso.'
Then, without waiting for reply,
he turned and began driving a long
nail o the hard beam. Most of us
jove to drive nail, though few care
for the more tedious task Of first bor-
Ing the hole. And SO many deals are
split in this world, and many hearts
are broken.
Colonel Wright from below watched
the steady swing Of the hammer, and
noted the almost boyish delight which
Winyard took in his noisy occupa-
ton. 1t seems that with some people
a proper sense of responsibilities
realization of life's gravity-never
comes; and, what is stranger still,
they appear to get on very we'll with
out it.
When the nail was driven, and the
curtain duly arranged, the two men
descended and stood back in the hall
20 enjoy the effect of their handiwork.
They were out of earshot, and Char
lie was hammering somewhere be-
hind the dropscene on the stage, so
VINEYARD took the opportunity of say
Ing:
Colonel, it is just possible that
something may come out in time
about Marie Notwithstanding
untrue, mean, that might do her
harm. If my name should in any
way get on gossips tongue when /
am away, do not trouble to contradict
anything to the general world. For
her the contradiction would be worse
than the slander-for 1t would mean
a charge of attempted murder. For
myself thought did not care
but now I find I do. l should not
like your-Mrs. Wright and your
daughter to believe anything they
might hear. You understand"
"Yes," replied the colonel, slowly,
81 understand. Shall we put up the
other curtain now?"

BY THE WAY.
By Elan Christian.

After a delightful run down
the mountains Saturday, I soon
landed.at Marietta, Ca, my home
and am telling my neighbors
about the grandeur of those West
ern North Carolina mountains,
and especially the beautiful boom
ing city of Hendersonville, which
l am very much in love with.
| have just been inspecting an
immense stock of furniture car
ried by a friend of mine, and
when he said, Here's carload of
North Carolina furniture" I be-
came more than ever interested.
Yes, sir, it showed up fine, /
tell you, and when I learned that
it was manufactured at Hickory,
| thought about what Henderson
vile might do in this line. She
needs manufacturing to bring her
to the goal of the grandest city
in the Old North State.
The logical beginning is furni-
ture making. There you have
the hard in great variety, grow
ing at your doors, the water pow
er for driving machinery, and in
fact, Nature has done her part
with lavish hand.
And then the market is almost
boundless. I would advise that
this subject be agitated at your
Industrial meetings."
1t is a great thing for a town
to be a popular summer resort,
and that Hendersonville al
ways will be, but for steady
growth and permanent prospect
ty, you must have manufacture
ng-furniture factories, Svehicle
factories, cotton factories.
These are rapidly coming to
the South, and Hendersonville
must move in the matter or get
left in the race.
Everybody seems to know OF
your city as a resort, and / hear
words of praise on every hand.

has grown within three years
from a mountain village to a
compact, modern, beautiful little
city of over 5000 inhabitants, and
is known throughout the land as
THE Mountain Resort Of the
South!
There are few towns better
known or better advertised than
Hendersonville is today.
With every natural advantage
possible, Hendersonville is now
about to enjoy a period Of ma
terial prosperity which will GER
tainly lead to her occupying the
position Of the first city of North
Carolina and that soon.
This $3.50, 900 bank is but the
first step in that direction!
There are other and greater
plans for this town. The Hust-
Ter is a true prophet-and knows
whereof it speaks.
Watch Hendersonville-y
can SEE it grow.
