yOu:' said Linden as he
bent to kiss his mother. ''If
| she looks anything like Billy she
should have gray eyes and a sort of
quiet brown hair-yOu know the kind
mean"
'Of course Ill lie good to her. you
foolish boy" she laughed. ''lD"n't You

little child about the house,"
| Linden blusheL. II was one OF his
mothers greatest regrets that lie never
had married. but he was absurdly
bashful. and he hated the thought.
For that reason he had welcomed the
suggestion that he should lend his
mother to Billy Corson's mOtherless
little sister. 1t would help her to for
get his own refusal to wed.
There had been great preparations
made since the letter OF acceptance
had been sent Linden had almost
bankruptcd himself in the purchase Of
toys. and the little room where as a
child ne had played was Overhowing
with all sorts of dolls and things.
Daisy was I" come on the. noon train
in the care of the conductor. and Bob
by Linden could scarcely wait until he
could get his most pressing affairs
Strengthened out before he rushed of
to the station to take the train back
home.
On the way he stopped to pick up a
| few more toys. and II was with his
arms loaded down that he hurried
through the shady street and into his
own gate. Then he gave n gasp. On
the porch sat girl in summery cos
tune talking to his mother. 1t could
not be the nurse. She was far too
well dressed for n nurse. 1t must he
one Of the local girls calling. He
thought OF the toy store package which
had come undonc and from which Il
dolls legs waved pinkly and unre-
strained. and the perspiration beaded
his forehead.
He had always tried to appear diGni-
fed before the girls. 1t kept them at
n distance. But how on earth could

toys dangling beneath his elbow:

"Dick always spoke of me as his

forward. Il hope you are not disap-

Disappointed that he should be the
companion of such glorious girl? ?
Bob chuckled. and in the saving grace
of lumor he lost his bashfu ness.
"YOu are most welcome he laughed
as his hand closed over hers. Since
you are Daisy Cors"n these are for

nations under her eyes wi h an aCdac.

THE EMPEROR AND THE FIGS.
Story Of How the King Rewarded tho
Old Man.


An emperor. seeing an old man plant
ing big tree. asked why he was doing
this. The man replied that he might
live TO eat OF the fruit, but even If he
did not his son would enjoy the ti-S.
WELL" said the emperor, IF you do
live to eat Of the fruit of this tree
pray you let me know of It,"
The man promised to do So and.
sure enough. his life was prolonged
until the tree grew and bore fruit,
which the old man ate.
Packing some Of the finest Of the
figs in a basket, he set out for the
palace and when he explained his er-
rand was shown by the guards into
the emperor's presence.
The emperor was so pleased that he
accepted the gift of the figs and or
with gold.
Now, next door to this old man there
lived woman who was very covetous'
and, seeing his good fortune. she pack
ed some figs into a basket and per-
suaded her husband to take them to
the emperor in the hope of receiving
in return 4 basket full Of gold. ,t
But the emperor, on learning the
mans errand, ordered him to stand In
the courtyard and had him pelted with
the figs. When the man arrived home
and told his wife all that had taken
place she consoled him by saying:
"Ah, well! You may be thankful
they were figs and not hard cocoanuts."
