and continued to
praise everything he saw as soon as
he saw it. At first Sara thought he
was trying to be polite, but Jack
was too genuine for that, and she
saw he was actually enjoying him
self. Supper in the diningroom with
the big door open to the porch
and the smell of honey-suckle float
ing in, was wonderful meal to
Jack. Sara had tabooed the kero-
sene lamps, and had substituted old
candelabra that she had unearthed
iH the attic. The soft candle light
flickered on the table that groaned
with good things to eat.
Freshly-fri brook trout, crusty
rolls. cold sliced ham, n whole chick
en-, honey and big pitchers of ice
cold milk, everything was put on at
once in the homely country fashion
but Jack did not seem to mind
thought Sara comfortably, and every
thing went along beautifully. Over
the blackberries and chocolate cake
Sara's father asked suddenly.
How'd you like to go fishin' to-
morrow"
Great" Jack responded prompt

upon Stella. 1t had become her
firm resolve to get what money was
due her when Charlie marketed his
logs and try another field of labor.
That camp on Roaring lake was be-
coming a nightmare to her, She
had no inherent dislike for work.
She was too vibrantly alive to be
lazy. But she had had an overdose
OF unaccustomed drudgery, and she
was growing desperate. If there
had been anything to keep her mind
from continual dwelling on the mani
fold dlsagreeableness she had to
cope with, she might have felt diff
feruntly, but there was not. She
ate, slept, worked-ate, slept, and
worked again-till every fibre of her
being cried out in protest against
the Geadening round.
Benton left to make his delivery
of logs to the mill company. and
meantime Stella had leisure to think
and plan for the future. She felt
that she could not stand her sur
roundings any longer and determined
to tell Charlie so.
Ten days later he and his loggers
returned, all more or less exhilar-
ated with liquor. He himself was
fairly mellow and rejoicing over a
100000 foot contract he had
secured and which was to be de-
livered as early as possible in the
spring.

Il guess you can't learn an old
dog to do new tricks" said the old
man from his comfortable seat in
the rocker. IF it hadn't been for yer
ma, ye wouldn't have had no school
in. So don't go thinkin' yerself bet
ter than your people"
"Oh. 1 don't father!" Sara re-
turned quickly. But I do want
things to be nice when he comes. l
do want him to like you"
"Of courses you do. dear" inter-
posed her mother gently. But pa
and 1 are old folks, you know. We
can't get onto your new-fangled ways
all at once"
And If he's the right kind of a
chap 1t won't make no difference
whether l wear my coat all the time
or not; and as for eatin' in the kitch-
en-. it's nicer anyway"
Sara's mother shook her head re-
monstratingly ia the girl, who then
said no more. She was not a snob;
she had no wish to seem better than
her people; but when she had prom
ised to marry Jack King and he had
promised to come down to the farm
and spend a week afer her school
had closed, she had been wondering
what he would say to the fact that
her father and mother, dear as they
were, were just plain country peo-
pie.
Sara had spent an eventful Christ
mast with Jacks sister, and the
, memory of their town home, with
its simple but attractive furniture,
the table loaded with silver and fine
cut glass, the meals served in
courses, and the perfection of the
service, which seemed to be always
just right, made her dread Jacks
coming to the farm.
Sara's mother had insisted on a
normal school education for her
daughter, and after she had finished
she had gone away to teach. The
| little girl who used to run around the
| farm in q sun bonnet and n gingham
dress now wore her hair done up in
soft braids on her head. She no long
| er answered to the name of Sallie,
and her parents were almost un-
comfortable in her presence so often
did she compare their manner of
! living with that of her friends. 1t
was no wonder that the advent of
Jack King was not looked upon with
great. pleasure by any one in the
house. Sara herself, included.
But the days passed and Jack
cme. Sara met him at the station
and they drove through the fragrant
country to the old farm. Sara's heart
was so filled with the JOY of having
Jack again that she almost forgot
her family troubles, but when she
turned in the driveway and saw her
mother dodge hastily indoors at the
sight of them, the old fear and worry
came back.
What a beautiful old place,
Jack was saying. You never told
me how beautiful it was" And then
Sara drew up before the old horse

been prepared for just such meas
ure of concentration upon Jack
Fyfe. For he was a power on Roar
ing Lake and power-physical, in
tellectual or financial-exacts its
own tribute of consideration. He
was a fighter, a dominant, hard
bitten woodsman, so the tale ran.
He had gathered about him the
toughest crew on the lake, himself,
upon occasion, the most turbulent of
all. He controlled many square
miles of big timber, and he had got
it all by his own effort in the eight
year ssince he came to Roaring lake
as a hand logger. He was slow of
speech, chain lightning in action,
respected generally, feared a lot.
All these things her brother and
Katy John had sketched for Stella
with much verbal establishment.
There was no ignoring such a
man. Brought into close contact
with the man himself, Stella felt the
radiating force of his personality.
There it was. a thing to be reckoned
with. She felt that whenever Jack
Fyfe's gray eyes rested imperson-
ally on her. His pleasant, freckled
face hovered before her until she
fell asleep, and in her sleep she
dreamed of him.

block and her father looking I'M
comfortable in his coat and unac-

mans hand heartily, which some-
what restored the confidence of
which the clothes had robbed him,
and then n farmland came to take
the carriage away and ~the three
turned toward the house.
Inside there was a faint smell of
delicious food. Freshly baked bread,
and flaky pies. and sundry other
good things. The big livingroom
that ran almost the length of the
house looked cool and inviting. Sara
had rubbed the furniture until it
shone and big bowls of flowers stood
everywhere. Jack stared about him
and then turned again to Sara.

Mrs Wicks smiled and nodded.
Afterward, down by the old garden
gate, Sara and Jack stopped a min

is the dearest thing I've ever met.

And Sara squeezed Jacks hand

if hu knew how she had worried
about his coming.
