"By what fool stunt did Templeton
lose his boat?"
HE tied it to a rock with silly
little rope, which sawed in two in no
time after it came on to blow, though
even then he might have got it if he
hadn't been afraid of getting welt"
answered the girl, angrily.
'But the salt water would have
ruined his wrist watch" said Jerry,
dryly, which remark brought an hys-
terical giggle from the girl in his
arms But the next moment she
pulled his head down, and with her
arms tight around his neck, whisp-

Jerry, I simply detest a wrist
watch on man, and I just adore the
smell of Holsters. Come over tomor-
row, dear!"

less, Jerry whispered a jubilant:

lures outside.
Enthusiastic over the new idea,
Maude began to dig. Her mind was
filed with happy thoughts, till Tom
came and found her.
why, Girlie!" he cried, isn't this
too hard work for you? What are you
doing?"
I'm going to have a garden!" she
beamed. Her back ached. but she
did not mind.
Rather poor soil, isn't it?" he
asked.
II found lovely pile of old dried
leaves; they make the best fertilizer.
You'll see, I'll have a beautiful gar
den. But l didn't know it was so
late. I'll have supper in a jiffy.
She tucked the biscuits in the oven
and set the table with dainty china
He praised her pink cheeks and her
food, and after supper he wiped the
dishes. Mande forgot the dingy car
pets and old furniture. How could
the non-essentials trouble her when
she had all that made life worth
while?

Completely nonplussed by the calm
demeanor of the girl; the man sat
in the grass where he could have a
clear view of the road and the set
Element in the valley. In short
while she came to the door, calling
him to come into the cabin. A table
set for two in the center of the
room was spread with a tempting
lunch on the white cloth. He kicked
around the chair she offered him
and placed it so that he could watch
the road through the door. AS she
served the cold meat, biscuits and
poured the tea he noted the delicate
hands, the slim wrists with the blue
veins pencilled under the white skin.
"Ain't you scared livin' here like
this?" he asked her.

The next morning Maude went off
to the woods and returned with has
ket filled with roots of fern, violets
and wild sweet peas. These she
tucked into the shady places where
they would grow. Soon it would be
time to plant her seeds.
All through the Summer the gar
den was source of JOY. When the
cool days of Autumn came Maude
covered the hardy plants and brought
her geraneums into the house. She
left chairs on the south porch. "I
know I shall want to sit out here in
the sun all Winter" she said.
They had lived two years in the
little home, and there was a baby's
voice to make it more happy. One
night Tom came home earlier than

he frightened.
They found little house on the
outskirts of the town and began their
welded life. There was space and
air, and distant views.
At first Maude was little lonely
but she always met Tom with smile

peered cautiously through the brush
at the bowed figure. He waited
awhile to see If there were any men
about. Satisfied that there were

she went over to him without a sign

glanced around furtively.
A low ripple of laugh answered
him as the girl gathered up the fancy
work. The brown eyes smiled up
at him.
