Barbara Bainbridge sometimes felt that she had two personalities, and whether the one adopted with the ab- breviation of her name was her true personality, or the other of the digni- fled Miss Barbara, the girl herself. could not determine. It all came of being born into wealthy aristocratic family on your fathers side, and one of sweet simplicity on your mothers side. So Babs decided the matter of her dual nature.
 The Bainbridges left nothing undone that might further their granddaugh- ter's natural advantage. while old Gran'ma Burnie instructed her in homely tasks and gave to her homely pleasures. Barbara's mother died at her cllild's birth, while the father, who had truly loved his young wife, passed most of his later years in one of the foreign offices connected with his vast business interest. Barbara in her girl joyful anticipation to the weeks of summer which would take her out to Gran'ma Burnie's farm. It was there in ruffied pink gingham frocks, that she became immediately "Babs," leaving the cultured young person behind.
 There was a little attic room at the farm cottage that Babs occupied where rambler rose peeped It's fragrant head through the easement window, and where across sun-steeped meadows she could hear the first soft stirrings of early morning. Babs had loved to lie lazily awake in the laven- der scented bed. listening to these sounds and planning the freedom of her day. Usually. as she rested and AS a part of the program awaited.

abroad, and though no earl offered his heart and hand, a young lordling and good count did: and Mss Bain- bridge refused both disdainfully.
 If Carlton Lainsley was not an earl, he was at least the only son Of capitalist. and he was. and ever had been in love with Barbara.
 So she went quite alone out to old Gran'ma Burnie's. Gran'ma was em. barrassed and apologetic concerning the attic bedroom. but Bab's again with a grateful sigh, placed her weary head on the lavender-scented pillow And in the morning when the ram bier tapped it's summons at the case ment window, Babs arose hurriedly, and with a thrill of excitement no for eign land had brought. she investi gated the tiny closet for the old ging ham frock that she knew gran mas sentiment would keep there. and found It. The dress was still big enough for her petite figure and then across the meadows, Babs saw him coming; the boy Jim, man now big and fine, and yet recognizable in spite of his proper cut clothing. As Babs flew down the stair his old song came to her.
 If a body meet a body,
 Coming through the rye.
 If body. kiss a body.
 Need body cry?"
 She was in his pathway. the old saucy smile on her lips.
 "Jim," she cried. "Oh where have you been?"
 And when James Evans could stop staring he answered her

 "Jim," said Babs. shakily. "when you were a boy, you were much more daring than now. Jim dear--a body wouldn't cry"
 Then he kissed her.
 Too Late.
 "Ah!" exclaimed the fallen baseball star as he wiped away tear If had only thought about that song the young people were singing when was bush league player"
 What was it?" asked a, sympathetic friend.

 Sometimes the air was half whis- tied. the whistler absorbed for the mo- ment with the departure of unruly Holstelns from their directed path. And once, Babs looking down at the big boy from her rose-screened win dow. had dressed hurriedly. and in an adventurous spirit forestalled him up- on his return As though by mere chance she met him in the path that led through the meadow; she was busily picking buttercups and she daringly sang his song. And the boy. at her saucy smile bent suddenly and unbelievingly. and turning back the pink ruffle of her snnbonnet, kissed her. Laughing, he had hummed back as he went on his way.
 Need a body cry7"
 Bab's had not cried; she had been angry. Oh! so very angry. And a summer passed thereafter. before the incident was forgotten.
 To Jim Evans boy" Babs was Gran'ma Burne's granddaughter. that was all while to the girl, young Jim was the son of departed and be- loved country doctor, whom gran ma had known in his youth. Jim's moth CT was gone now, tOo and the boys ambitious planning seemed to have small foundation In his present, of helper to an exacting uncle. But the time of Bab's presentation tc so- ciety sounded, and the little sleeping princess of country lanes went back, with eyes opened to new duties. Miss Barbara Bainbridge proved success socially; gratified. her grandparents realized that they were rewarded for their effort She was lovely. too. with the sweet freshness of the deplored Burnies and with their true look in her eyes.
