THE DAILY NOVELETTE,
GREETINGS
by MARY +. NOLAN

( nt' The four seasons, Mrs. Vim had
~ the tenderegt regard for autumn.
These lovely, mellow days brought back
sweet memories Of the past.
Herself, she knew no ways but the
simple, homy ways of hard working
farm folks. She and Cyrus. her hus l.
band. had raised large family--;i fam =
Il" Oh which she was proud.
True, Milly, their Youngest daughter,
had incurred her fathers displGGsurC
when She married Glenn Stone against
Mr. Ninn's 5 wishes. And tho aging
farmer had not forgotten what seemed
to him very wilful act on the part OF
This little ruddy checked, goldeu- haired
child Of his. Milly had just passed her
eighteenth birthday when she. told her
folks that Glenn Stone had asked her to
marry him.
Mrs. VIM had put her arm about
her daughters shoulders and drawn Lht
golden head to her pGlpitating bosom, as
though she would hold the sweet, smil-
ing, coniding little creature in the fam
lily nest forever. And when she had
pressed her paliug lips to the rosebud
mouth, and breathed the longings of her
heart down into that tTuH ing, child like
soul, and felt the responsive tiutter OF
the innocent heart, she looked with
tear dimmed eyes over the golden head
TO where her husband was standing
watching them.
Well she knew that he would not soOr
forgive Milly Tor disobeying him in this
important matter.
Years ago, Glenn Stones father haC
beaten Cyrus III 4 trivial lawsuit. Since
then never q word had passed between
Cyrus Winn and He2 Stone

He pointed to the motto. "Home,
Sweet Home" he read aloud, feelingly
He shook his head sadly. Mother and
me will find it different place, once
you go, Milly."
1t has been a quiet wedding. But, af-
ter four years, the people thereabouts
couldn't recall seeing a handsOmeI
couple on their wedding day than Milly
Winn and Clem Stone.
Farmer Winn had not forgiven. He
seemed to have forgotten all about it.
He knew they had gone West some
where.
The rural mail carrier stopped his
wagon one day as he was passing the
cropped field where the old man was
tossing corn -stubble onto q burning
heap with a pitchfork, and asked hin
if he would take a letter addressed tc
Mrs. Vim.
"Better hand il to mother yourself
William. Guess you'll find her waitin

Mrs. Winn slowly arose from the
green wicker rocker as she heard thC
