WHILE Chicag go is the fourth largest city in tho
w world, it is almost as simple a village to
cover for distribution and check-up, and certainly
the least expensive of any city of this agnitude

it is city in which a single ne,vspaper-Ihe Chi

Perhaps the most dangerous lure to the

hurst to begin again where his father
had left of.
The old house which had belonged
to Lester's mother and had, therefore,
been kindly willed to Lester's aunt was
tenantless, Lester had heard. He had
come back to Sprucehurst without visit
ing his aunt in the city, bent first on
buying the house through her agent and
then settling down at his fathers old
stand.
Lester Clark stood looking rather
blankly at the Susan Jane Gift Shop.
Just beyond the pile of gay woods he
caught sight Of neatly coifed chest
nut head. The head was bent as IL its
owner was intent on fine work. Doubt
less, this was Susan Jane.
When Lester took time to think his
feeling of disappointment and annoy
ance with this Susan Jane person was
softened. It had all been a mistake.
The agent had let her In while waiting
for developments. He would simply
go to the agent and Susan Jane would
have to find new quarters. 1t was his
dence on Beverly avenue, which was
vacant.
So Lester Clark went to the Office Of
Quick 4 Smell before taking time to
look up any of his old friends in Spruce
hurst. Mr.. Quick was embarrassed.
Still he felt sure that within a day or
so matters could be adjusted. Miss
Jane-Susan Jane-would be told.
Doubtless she would see the situation
and would want to open her shop some
where else.
But would It be a case Of want TOT"
asked Lester. That Is, of course, she
has no lease"
There is some sort of lease" ad-
mitted Mr.. Quick. That is to say,
you see Miss Jane rather insisted on
It. But she will see how things are.
You see, your aunt first told us to go
ahead and dispose of the place as we
could and then after receiving your
said, Don't rent the house!' We sup
posed. of course, that she wanted to
occupy It herself. She didn't say any
thing about the Office wing and so we
went ahead"
1t was later in the day that Mr..
Quick had called on Susan Jane and
received her firm refusal to vncate the
premises, and after Lester had returned
to the real estate office, that they looked
up the lease. It was made out for three
years. There seemed to be no clause
that might be used as lever to oust
the young storekeeper who had started
business in the doctor's Office.
1t was on Lester's third call that
first day, after they had read through
the lease with the greatest scrutiny,
that Mr.. Quick seemed to see way
out.
of course" he said with mild
smile on his face, "t isn't likely that
Susan Jane will remain in buslness-as
it overwhelmingly.
Isn't she making il go?"
That isn't it. She really seems to
be doing very we'll. The point is that
Miss Jane is more than commonly at
tractive. I know of two--I might say
three-young men who would marry

the real Susan Jane beneath was

about to vi cid to his request, or
whether she was really flirting with

Lester Clark didn't carry out his err
rand just as he had planned 1t. When
he had finished his explanation Susan
Jane laughed, spontaneous, easy
laugh, like that Of a child. and Lester
found that he was laughing with her'
When he left he shook hands, and
with a boldness unlike him, held the
hand and drew Susan Jane a step. nearer
to him as he looked again into the blue
eyes. "Be a good girl, now, and give

DR.. Clark's courtship was a quick
one. His days we're spent In pursuit
Of Susan Jane, fathoming those eyes
and waiting for the intoxication Of her
iaugh, and a. night after he was away
from her he used to steal time from
thinking of her to make plans about the
Office when he had his sign IN place Of
