CHAPTER v.
A Traoic Situation.

Such was the introduction of Caro-
Ign May to The Corners. 1t was not
q very exciting life she had entered
into, but the following two or three
weeks were very full.
Aunty Rose insisted upon her being
properly fitted out with clothing for
the summer and fall. Carolyn May
had to go to the dressmaker's house
to be fitted and that is how she be-
came acquainted with Chef Gormley's
mother.
Mrs. Gormley was helping the dress
maker and they both made much of
Carolyn May. Aunty Rose allowed her
to go for her fitting alone-of course
with Prince as a companion-so, with
out doubt, Mrs. Gormley, who loved
a "dish of gossip" talked more freely
with the little girl than she would have
done in Mrs. Kennedy's presence.
One afternoon the little girl APP
peared at the dressmaker's with
Princes collar decorated with short
curly shavings.
II take it you've stopped at Jed Par
lows shop, child" said Mrs. Gormley
with a sigh.

Don't your uncle, Mr.. Stage, ever

she asked the little girl.
Carolyn May had to think about this
before answering. Then she remem-

"Oh, yes" she said brightly.
"He does? Do tell !" exclaimed Mrs.
Gormley eagerly. "What does he

"Why, he says her name is Miss
