Eve chafed at advice and resented
opposition to her own ideas. and this
was the only defect in her character
that had caused Gresham anxiety.

the finer points of her temperament
had won him completely. Tacitly IL
was mentally accepted by both that
affairs were leading on to a settled
engagement.
Some girl friends had suggested a

Island. located in the center of a lake

Van Bibber bit his lips TO hid a

himself for smiling. "Oh dear. no." he
said. ''of course not. We don have

second night OF their stay on the
island that for all time convinced
Eva that Tyrreli. however pliable as
an accommodating man. was indeed
a broken reed.
There came up an early morning
storm that drove the tents fat.
Drenched, miserable. a further de-
preston came when the girls discoy-
cred that during the night someone
had carried away a chest in which
was stored all their extra clothing
and jewelry. Investigation showed
that a lot of gypsies had visited the
island in the darkness. Tyrrell
started in pursuit quite valiantly. but
did not overtake them.
Home, the shortest and quickest
way" was the imperative order of
the discounted Eva the next morning.

atty was concerned. and was given to
considering herself an unworthy In

served compliments either mocklnSiy or
as sarcasms at her expense. and mat5
her friends indignant by waxing en-
thusiastic over people whom they did
not consider one-fourth as worthy OF
such enthusiasm as she was herself.
She was n very loyal friend. and when
she was with Van Bibber had the tact
not to tall u those things which might
be beyond his reach. Stii1, when she
did venture with him on those matters
OF life M conscience and conduct
which most interested her. she found
his -common-sense and his sense Of hu-
NOR vastly disturbing to her theories.
She received him this afternoon with n
~preoccup.ed air. which continued until
her mother. who had been with her
when he had entered. had left the
room.

began at once. land I have something

Van Bibber wanted to ASSURE her that
II was not to be taken seriously. and
felt fresh Indignation that she shou.l
have been troubled SO impudently. But

to carry u her orders,
Just as you say. Eva" he agreed
ard did not grumbie when they found
themselves imprisoned IN a net WORK
OF reeds and weeds. losing two hours
time e~xtricating themselves from the
dilemma.
It was Eva's fault that the tents
were placed so that later they caught
the i'll effects of a sudden windstorm.
Always and ever, however. the parrot
pronunciamento of the impractical
Tyrren were demonstrated with the
lifeless. m~otionless:
