SYNOPSIS.

Miss Patricia Holbrook and Miss Helen
Holbrook, her niece, were entrusted to
the care of Laurance Donovan, a writer,
summering near Port Annandale, Miss
Patricia confded to Donovan that she
feared her brother Henry, who, ruined by
bank failure, had constantly threatened
her for money from his fathers will, of
which Miss Patricia was guardian. They
came to Port Annandale to escape Henry.
Donovan sympathized With the two
women. He learned Of Miss Helen's an
noying suitor. Donovan discovered and
captured an intruder who proved to be
Reginald Gillespie. suitor for the hand Of
Miss Helen Holbrook. Gillespie disap-
peared the following morning. rough
sailor appeared and was ordered away.
Donovan saw Miss Holbrook and her fa-
ther meet on friendly terms. Donovan
fought an Italian assassin. He met the
man he supposed was Holbrook, but who
said he was Hartridge, canoe-makeI.
After a short discussion Donovan left
surlily Gillespie was discovered by Dom
ovan presenting a country church with
$1,000 Gillespie admitted he knew Of H0l-
brooks presence. Miss Pat acknowledged
to Donovan that Miss Helen had been
missing for a few hours. While riding
in a launch. the Italian sailor attempted
to molest the trio, but failed, Miss Pat
announced her intention of fighting Henry
Holbrook and not seeking another hiding
place. Donovan met Helen in garden at
night. Duplicity of Helen was confessed
by the young lady She admitted connivlng
with her father despite her aunts
precautions, in a night meeting with Don
ovan The three went for a long ride the
following day. That night, disguised as a
nun. Helen stole from the house. She met
Reginald Gillespie who told her his love.
Gillespie was confronted by Donovan.

AS we passed the village pier | saw
the Stiletto lying at the edge OF the
inlet that made a miniature harbor for
the village, and, rowing swiftly toward
t, his oars flashing brightly, was the
Italian, still plainly in sight. Whether
Miss Pat saw the boat and ignored it,
or failed to see, did not know, for
when l turned she was studying the
cover of a magazine that lay in her
lap. Helen lell to talking VivaciouSly
of the contrasts between American
and English landscape; and SO we
drove back to st. Agathas.
Thereafter, for the matter of ten
days, nothing happened. I brought the
ladies of st. Agatha's often to Glen,
arm, and we went forth together con-
stantly by land and water without in
terruption. They received and dis
patched letters, and nothing marred
the quiet order of theirlives. The Stillet-
to vanished from my horizon, and lay,
so lima learned for me, within the
farther lake. Henry Holbrook had,
made no doubt, gone away with the
draft Helen had secured from Giles
pie, and of Gillespie himself | heard
nothing.

KANSAS. CORN AND BABIES.

Kansas has some reason to be proud
Of its record this year in the produc-
ton OF corn, wheat and oats, and es-
pecially Of corn. The total of the three
crops Is placed at more by $15,000,0
than in any previous year in its his
tory, and obviously that is a showing
TO be proud Of. But singularly enough
along with this proud showing the CEN
sus bureau comes forward with the de-
pressing information that the baby
crop In Kansas has fallen off in the
same year, says Manchester Union.
There were $3.50 babies born in
Kansas In the fiscal year 1907, and
only 23,85O in the fiscal year 1908. OF
course the first question that presents
Itself Is what the fiscal future of a
year has to do with such a matter any
way. Yet it is obvious that one must
start from somewhere in such compu-
tations, and perhaps the beginning and
end Of the fiscal year are as good
points as any. The thought that is
sure to suggest itself is, were the
Kansas farmers SO busy planting their
big crops of wheat, corn and oats that
they overlooked the graver problem
Of population?

The cerulean "sky-piece" has made
Its jaunty appearance in our midst.
Time was when a man attired himself
only in sober hues, as befitted his dig
nifty and Importance, says Washing
ton Herald. No frivolous frolicking in
fanclful garb appealed to the mascu-
line taste. A strong reaction from the
days of silken hose and brocaded,
gold-laced coats and small clothes
swayed the balance in favor of Puri-
tan1cal and Quakerish garb of the past
two generations. But man is becoming
emanc1psted from his somber thral-
dom; not all at once, but gradually, as
Is usually the case with great and i'm.
portant reforms The necktie has long
since succeeded to the inevitable, and
its fiamboyant brilliancy now shames
the rainbow and the peacock. Mascu-
line hosiery, too, has assumed the COL
ors of the spectrum in weird and won
derful design. In hats we have passed
the quiet black, brown and gray stage,
apparently The lurid college hatband
was only the forerunner of the solid
green hat which burst upon a startled
public year or so ago. 1t was a
modest shade of green, to be sure, but
green for all that.

II man doesn't love his work, he
would better get something else to do.
But the trouble is that such people
will hardly love any kind of work. The
trouble is in them. They lack intelli-
gence. If they knew enough to know
good work they would soon learn to
love 1t. The manual training scheme
has this in vieW-to surround the lob
man is doing with such intelligence
and taste as will make it attractive to
him. "The man who is in love with
his job gets more contentment out of
life than any other" says Brander
Matthews; and he gets great part of
his contentment in doing his work
right. No man can love his work who
shsrks. No man can be contented who
is dishonest about his work. This is
shirking or doing it negligently. So
these things always go together-hon.
est work, contentment and love of the
job.

CHAPTER X.
The FIutter of a Handkerchief.
1T is nothing, lima"

The FIutter of a Handkerchief.
The next morning at eight o'clock
| sent note to Miss Pat, asking if she
and the other ladies of her house
would not take breakfast with me at
nine; and she replied, on her quaint
visiting card, in an old-fashioned hand,
that she and Helen would be glad to
come, but that Sister Margaret begged
to be excused. 1t had been in my
mind from the first to ask them to
dine at Glenarm, and now I wished
to see this girl, to test, weigh, study
her, as soon as possible after her
meeting with Gillespie. l wished to
see how she would bear herself before
her aunt and me with that dark trans
action on her conscience.
Breakfast seems to be, in common
experience, the most difficult meal of
the day, and yet that hour hangs in
memory still as one of the brightest
ever spent. The table was set on the
terrace, and its white napery, the best
Glenarm silver and crystal, and bowl
OF red roses still dewy from the night,
all blended coolly with the morning.
AS the Strawberries were passed | felt
that the little table had brought us
together in new intimacy. 1t was de.
lightful to sit face to face with Miss
Pat, and not less agreeable to have
at my right hand this bewildering
girl, whose eyes laughed at me when
l sought shame in their depths. Miss
Pat poured the coffee, and when |
took my cup | felt that it carried
benedlction with it. ! was glad to
see her so at peace with the world,
and her heart was not older, I could
have sworn, than the roses before her.
Il shall refuse to leave when nv
time Is up" she declared. do YOU
think you could spend winter here
Helen?"
Il should love it," the girl replied.
1T would be perfectly splendid to
watch the seasons march across the
lake. We can both enroll ourselves at
st. Agatha's as postgraduate students
and take a special course in weather
here"
If I didn't sometimes hear trains
passing Annandale in the night 7
should forget that there's a great busy
world OFF there somewhere" said Miss
Pat. Il am ashamed of myself for
having been SO long discovering this
spot. Except one journey to Califor-
ma, was never west of Philadelphia
until / came here"
Helen stood by the line of scarlet
geraniums that marked the balustrade
at point whence the best view of the
lake was obtainable-her hands
clasped behind her, her head turned
slightly.
There Is no one quite like herl"
exclaimed Miss Pat.
Sne Is beautiful" | acquiesced.
Miss Pat talked on quickly, as
though our silence might cause Helen
to turn and thus deprive us of the
picture.
Should you like to look over the
house| | asked a little later, when
Helen had come back to the table. "It
is said to be one Of the finest houses
In interior America, and there are
some good pictures"
I'VE should be very glad," said Miss
Pat; and Helen murmured assent.
But we must not stay too long.
Aunt Pat. Mr.. Donovan has his own

affairs. We must not tax his generosi-
ty too far"
"And we are going to send some let
ters off to-day. If it isn't asking too
much, | should like to drive to the
village later" said Miss Pat.
Eyes; and l should like a paper of
pins and new magazine" said Helen,
a little, a very little eagerness in her
tone.
Certainly. The stable is at your
disposal, and our entire marine"
But we must see the Glenarm pic
lures first" said Miss Pat, and we
went at once into the great cool house,
coming at last to the gallery on the
third floor.
Whistler" Miss Pat exclaimed in
delight before the famous Lady in
the Gray Cloak" 81 thought that pic
ture was owned in England"
1T was; but old Mr.. .Glenarm had
to have it. That Meissonier is sup
posed to be in Paris, but you see it's
here"
ITS wonderful" said Miss Pat. She
returned to the Whistler and studied
it with rapt attention, and I stood by,
enjoying her pleasure. Helen had
passed on while Miss Pat hung upon
the Whistler.
How beautifully those draperies
are suggested, Helen, That is one of
the best of all his things"
But Helen was not beside her, as
she had thought. There were several
recesses in the room, and | thought
the girl had stepped into one of these,
but just then | saw her shadow out
side.
Miss Holbrook is on the balcony"
| said.
"Oh, very WELL, We must CO." she
replied, quietly, but fingered before the
picture.
left Miss Pat and crossed the room
to the balcony. AS l approached one
OF the doors / saw Helen, standing
tiptoe for greater height, slowly raise
and lower her handkerchief thrice, as
though signaling to some one on the
water.
laughed outright as I stepped be-
side her.
Its better to be a picture than to
look at one, Miss Holbrook! Allow
met"
In her confusion she had dropped
her handkerchief, and when I returned
1t she slipped it into her cuff with a.
murmur of thanks. A flash of anger
lighted her eyes and she colored
slightly; but she was composed in an
instant. And, looking off beyond the
water-tower. l was not surprised to see
the Stiletto quite near our shore, her
white sails filling lazily in the scant
wind. A tiny flag flashed recognition
and answer to the girls signal, and
was hauled down at once.
We We're both silent as we watched
it; then turned to the girl, who bent
ner head a moment, tucking the hand
kerchief a trifie more securely into her
sleeve. She smiled quizzically, with a
compression of the lips.
THE view here is fine, isn't it,"
We regarded each other with entire
good humor. ] heard Miss Pat within.
slowly crossing the bare floor of the
gallery.
You are incomparable!" ex.
claimed. Verify, a daughter of Janus
has come among us!"
"The best pictures are outdoors, aft
er ALL" commented Miss Pat; and
after further ramble about the house
they returned to st. Agatha's, whence
we were to drive together to Amman.
