IAMRENCI'S SUGGESTION.

LAW RENCE'S StCGESTION.
Lawrence had been 50 sweet with
an Alicc's moods and doubtlngs that
10 hated TO tell him the truth. SO
shs worried over II for perhaps a
week. And when she did tell him, II
was brought on BY a mark he made.
Thsy were driving through the
countfy along one OF their favorite
raads. There was u long, smooth
stretch that ran Tor several miles
Without a bend. II vas not fire.
q1rutcd By many cars n u was
here that Alice had first learned 20
drive. As they turned into this part,
lawrence slowed down tho car
Want TO take the wheel?" he
asked.
Alice shook her head.
Lawrence gave her a glance 81
surprise, Usually Alice was cnthusi-
asic over driving and could not do
shan We take tho short cut to
Bnrby and let her out on the hack
road (" he asked. lie was talking OF
ono Of the spots 40 dear To motor
lists. whore a good road was less
carefully watched and speeding was
Nrain Alice shook her head. she
was looking Ear out over h hills,
Lawrence laid his free hand over
whats tho trouble. dcar?" he
asked Yea haven't been your usual
self for days. You are always 80
cheerful: In fact I fell In love with
you first hscausc you had such a
happy disposition
'Wm Won fan out Of love with me

Alice asked with a little humorous
smile.
no. I don't suppose will" Law
renee answered. but ] prefer you
I'm smiling" Alice turned to him
Ia confirm her statement.
Mechanically" Lawrence nuswci -
ed What is the trout ? Don't you
love me any more d.,
Yes. ! do" Alice replied. "But-i
don't know lawrancc. ] can't explain
IL. ] do love you and I do want 90
marry you-I don't know why I've
been so depressed"
Il think you've been depressed be-
cause YOU had certain things in mind
To do and you've worried because you
haven't done them was Law
rcpcc's way OF summing mp the situ-
you worried an spring because
YOU were not over there az the sct-
Element house working yourself IA
death iu the gardens; you worried
Hll mt because YOU weren't There
doing "a lot ct work that girls with
plenty ~ leisure should be- doing.
You fclt badly because I refused ia
lrt YOU plant an enormous garden
back Of Your own house nnd let you
break your back tending 20 it
There is something In all that
Alice conceded Il like to work. per
haps that's u thing that troubles
me about our marriage. III have
maids and won't dare do any
work-TU have 90 play all the time.
I'm sure shan't like n az well.
Probably III want TO bake you n
cake. OF go ont and hoe tho corr
patch. And 7 won't be able 20 De.
ctuH" III bc u rich mans wife and
people would talk"
Lawrence threw back his head and
laughed aud there was relief IN his
voice when hoAcSkc again.
'lt that's AT don't worry your nice
little head Off about g." he answered.
IL YOU long TO grasp "a hoe and go
forth u weed, take a bag OF golf
sticks aud 20 out on Tho links az the
club. There's q remarkable similarity
uf movement between hitting q golf
ball and aiming az l weed. but golt
has the advantage Of exercising more
muscles b a hocing. SO II will be
better for you
Perhaps We can build n bungalow
somowh here on "a mountain and whom
wan tu do homework, wen go uut
there and camp Alice suggested.
Lawrence Erinucd.

uud flies got into everything you ca
and strange creatures from the for.
est crawl down YOU neck, | suppos,
I'm unprecedented, I don't like get
ting too close to Nature"
They drove along In silence for q
while. hen Lawrence spoke again
q think, at that I've solved YOU
difficulty" he said. Your tail
about hooiug and making cakes gave
me am idea. You are really worrie,
because you haven't followed out YOU
plans. Would you be any moro con.
tented IL you did go through the aEri
cultural college, / don't know wha
good % would do YOU now. but I be

"Gf DO will mako you happy. wei

you can start lu September. Wei
