Miss Virginia would not feel sighted

began reading a book-and they had to
finish it. She was fond of fishing. She
wanted to explore the upper reaches of
the river; and they spent long days on
the stream. Mrs. Scott was afraid of
the water-and still more afraid of Vir-
ginia-and they ven alone, while that
good lady wrote verses and mailed them
20 heartless publishers.
How can she do such things?" said
Virginia, one day.
Why not? inquired Theodore.
'aThey sound a good deal like-like the
other poets
But she's $3.50 puddingy!" urged
Virginia. "And she has a mustache!"
THAT" said he, advancing the spark.
'swould MOI seem material. Shakespeare

Virginia was trailing her hand through
the water and looking at the bubbles.
"a great engineer said she, but you
don't shine in literary criticism"

resist her inflamed sentiments. She
doesn't bother a bit-I1l say that for
her.
So Mrs. Scott stayed, a most unsafe
duenna under the circumstances. n
Theodore stayed also. There were so
many things to do. ~Craighead's tele-
grams came in from the east, still Del
ohio in significance. One reported that
New York was practically surround

soon be ..gridironed." Theodore was
deaf to voices from the outer world.
A letter from Harrod. proving that the
news of his return had reached the
cabin in the dunes, lay on h old es>

"Pangs IF spring. youth and sweet
fellowship"
Theodore ate wolhshly, and drank
great quantities of coffee to show
that he was in fine fettle-quite un-
able TO pick up his end of the con-
versation. 1t was youth and spring
and sweet fellowship. though the items
made him sick Of Mrs. Stott's table
talk. He wanted the river and Psyche,
knowing that he ought to go and ave
her. Every night he vowed to go next
morning-and laid plans for another
day with her.
1t was maddening. She brought him
dresses. gloves n hats for criticism,
and confded to him the state of her
wardrobe. She reckoned the time be-
fore she must have any more dresses,
told him what her stockings and un-
derclothing had cost. and asked him

on the very verge Of d~evoaring some
body. 1t was appalling. All uncon-
scious of her parlous state, Virginia
took his arm under the screening row
Of cedars. told him what a delightful
day b had had, and squeezed his arm
while she said it.
Something may have warned her that
this was a ticklish thing with so young
and inexperienced an uncle. for she
dropped his arm and an gaily toward
the house. looking back and stepping
lightly like a kid-when she trod IN
a hollow, and fell in a heap on the
Bermuda grass. Theodore found her
with her ankle gripped in her hands,
and her lips tight TO hold back a
CRY. A hurried question. a CHEEKY re-
ply cut in two with a twinge of pain,
and he picked her up. She threw her
arms about his neck to ease the bur-
dem. Alas, it made it heavier. The
fervor of his embrace did the ankle
no good. and nearly crushed poor Vir-
ginia. The color rose slowly TO her
brow. as he set her down on the YER
anda. and stood over her, breathing
hard. She rose on the sound foot and
tried the other carefully.

Taking off the shoe, she held the

asked.
Theodore tenderIy squeezed the
shapely ankle, and rose TO his feet.
