Both Williams and Frank Sloan an

Joy escaped her. Genius lurked in

head.

Satisfactory
Bargains

Celia had chosen the suburb of Kew
as splendid place for her experiment
in advertising 1t was not far from
town, and the houses seemed to be
of a more or less distinctive charac-
ter.
"The people there no doubt would
appreciate 'tistic interiors; argued
Celia as she boarded the train.
The train was crowded. "They
are always crowded." was her COM
ment as she trailed through the car
looking for seat. If she could not
find an unoccupied seat Celia always
chose to sit beside man. "They
usually sit quiet and read their pa
pers," she ruminated as she sat down
beside good.looking man who,
though ample of frame, did not oc-
.cupy more than half Of the seat.
He scarcely looked up when Celia
slipped quietly down beside him. His
eyes when the train had pulled out
of the tunnel swept in every yestige
of the passing landscape.
Once or twice he sat up quickly
and peered at some vanishing scene
and once his arm touched her shoul-
der. Celia drew into her corner Of
the seat. The young man evidently
mistook her drawing away for peev-
ness and after. apologizing with ex-
-aggerated politeness he returned to
a more frigid contemplation of things
passing.
Celia felt a certain relief when the
train pulled in at Kew. Nor did she
observe, in her hurried exit that the
young man also had left the train.
Had she known it it would not have
mattered now for Celia's mind was in
tent on looking for an old house that
would seem lost to all chance OF ever
having another occupant.
She strolled about and began to fear
that there were no old houses in Kew
and that she would have to try anotn-
er suburb. She turned corner and
there! A lovely old haunted-looking
house lay in the midst of hopeless
1y dilapidated garden.
Celia drew breath Of Joy. The
