Liza Ann smiled delightedly. "Yaas,

wondered how she could run so lightly

He had just settled himself comfort
ably at the same picturesque spot upon
the following day when Liza Ann ap-
peared. Her shyness seemed to have
vanished. for she responded merrily to
his sallies. then silently turned the
pages of the book which he had
brought. while Stanton wrote rapidly,
pausing to look up at her from time to
time
She came again and again at the
mans bidding to sit beside him as he
worked. Stanton studied her moods
and emotions as naturalist might an
alyze some wonderful butterfly, while
the book progressed rapidly. He
brought his camera. too, and took
many successful pictures of the obedi-
ent little subject. The one which
pleased him most was that of Liza
Ann just as he had first seen her. the
sunshine sitting down through the
leafy trees to rest upon her upturned
face. This. he decided. would make a
charming frontispiece for the new
book. She was very proud of the copy
Of the photograph which he gave her.
So the golden days passed, and later,
when the early moon came peeping
over the mountain peak, they would
walk together up and up the fragrant
pathway. On one of these evenings he
told her such parts of the story as he
thought she might understand-of the
winsome girl who lived in a log cabin
home and dressed in calico.

Lawrence Stanton had gained his
reputation as great author through
faithful portrayal of types. He de-
termined now to combine business
with pleasure and take trip to some
unfrequented mountainous country
where he might come in contact with
the people and make a study of them
in order to weave a story about them.
He especially desired to find one char
acter. an ignorant and attractive young
girl; but. though many could easily an
swer the first requirement, the latter
was always missing until he met-her.
This was the day that he had fol-
lowed the lonely trail up and up,
through sunshine and shadow, until he
came upon her suddenly where she
was sitting upon a fallen log. She
arose. startled at Stanton's appearance.

She hesitated, pulling at her bonnet

Then curiosity overcame prudence.

He waved hand indefinitely toward

said. And yours?' The girl flashed
a smile at him and initiated the vague
movement of his arm.

Stanton laughed. "Got mother and

She resumed her seat upon the fallen

Il am here" said Stanton gravely,
