Dicky Left the Cosgroves for Home.

Mrs. Cosgrove. spoiled the remaining
hours spent in the Catskill mountain
farmhouse, and Swallowed my journey
home.
We left the farmhouse on the morn

into whose lives our own had been so

parted with many assurances of return
on our part and promises of future
visits to us by the Cosgroves.
Robert Savarin, Mrs. Cosgrove's
brother, was to come TO us for a week
or two as soon as his sister was sure
that his newly restored sanity would
be able to stand the strain of a change
from the peaceful surroundings In
which he had spent many years. /

the naivete of a child to reintroducing
the artist, grown famous while his
brain slumbered, to the world of the
New York studios.

self?
"Don't Be Ridiculous"
az was just trying to imagine Robert
Savarin at a rip shorter of time,

on all these years. tell you he will
lick up the right sort of a good time.
What are you looking so glum about?
He broke off abruptly and scEutinized
my face narrowly.
'Disapprove of my slang again. or
don't you fancy yourself in the role
of hostess to the lion of the season?
Let me tell you there will be lots of
women who would give their eyes to

The very mention Of Mrs. Ailis made
me shudder. I could hear again her
parting message for me which Mrs.
