the captain off to the farm to see that
oft-repeated wonder and always wei
come forerunner of plenty, the quite
new calf.
Clematis McAlpin, shy and long
limbed, just at the awkward age when
woman misses being either boy or girl
had disappeared. Where, nobody knew.
She might be bird s-nesting in the
swamp or crying over the "Idylls Of
the King" in the barn loft. Certainly
she was not in the house. j. Y. Wayne
had seen to that Stern and rugged Of
face, he sat in the library alone and
waited for Alan. He heard a distant
screen door open and slam. Steps
echoed through the lonely house,
Alan came and stood before him.
Alan was man. Without being tall
he looked tall. His shoulders were not
broad till you noticed the slimness of
his hips. His neck looked too thin
till you saw the strong set of his small
head In a word; he had the perfect
proportion that looks frail and is
strong AS he stood before his uncle
his eyes grew dull. They were slightly
bloodshot in the corners and with
their dullness the clear-cut lines of his
face seemed to take on a perceptible
blur.

a long quarter of an hour and then
summed up all he had said in a few
words. 1--WE been no uncle to you,

Once a poor actor was praying for
bread. He was dying of hunger, and
this fact contributed in making his
speech and gestures eloquent. But
his argument seemed to be Of no avail.
At last he neared the end Of his en-
durance, but he redoubled his efforts.

and just then the curtain let down a
