understand it all now-everythng:
why the house is different and Fa-
ther, and everything. And it is Cousin
Grace, and it is love story.
Father is in love with her.
Now l guess l shall have something
for this book!
1t seems funny now that didn't
think of it at first. But l didn't-not
until heard Nellie and her beau talk
the only one in the house that was
going to get married. And when he
asked her what she meant, she said 1t
was DIR. Anderson and Mrs. Whitney.
That anybody could see it that wasn't
| as blind as bat.
My, but wasn't l excited? l just
| guesss I was. And, of course, l saw
that l had been blind as bat. But
began to open my eyes after that,
and watch-not disagreeably, you
know, but just glad and interested,
and on account of the book.
And l saw:
That Father stayed in the house a
lot more than he used to.
That he smiled more.
That he actually asked Cousin Grace
and me to play for him several times.
That he went with us to the Sunday
! school picnic. Il never saw Father at
a picnic before, and don't believe he
ever saw himself at one.)
That-oh, don't know, but whole
lot of little things that can't remem-
ber; but they were all unmistakable,
very unmistakable. And l wondered,
when l saw it all, that had been as
blind as bat before.
When l wrote Mother told her
oil about 1.-THE signs and symptoms,
l mean, and how different and thawed-
out Father was; and l asked If she
didn't think it was so, too. But she
didn't answer that part. She didn't
write much, anyway. 1t was an aw-
fully snippy letter; but she said
she had headache and didn't feel
at all we'll. So that was the rea-
son, probably, why she didn't say
more-about Fathers love affair, I
mean. She only said she was glad,
she was sure, if Father had found an
| estimable woman to make a home for
him, and she hoped they'd be happy.
Then she went on talking about some
thing else. And she didn't write much
more, anyway, about anything.

it was the prettiest one ever saw,
and way ahead Of even Mr.. Easter
brooks.
"And, pray, who is Mr.. Easterbrook? 2"
asked Father then. '"Ihe violinist,
perhaps-eh?"
Now, wasn't it funny he should have
remembered. that there was a violin
list? But, of course, told him no, it
wasn't the violinist. 1t was another
one that took Mother to ride, the one
1 told him about in the Christmas let
ter; and he was very rich, and had
two perfectly beautiful cars; and l
was going on to tell more-hoW he
didn't take Mother now-but didn't
get a chance, for Father interrupted,
and said, "Yes, yes, to be sure" And
he showed he wasn't interested, for
all the little smile wrinkles were gone,
and he looked stern and dignified,
more like he used to. And he went on to
say that, as we had almost reached
home, he had better explain right away
that Aunt Jane was no longer living
there; that his cousin from the West,
Mrs. Whitney, was keeping house for
him now. She was very nice lady,
and he hoped would like her. And
l might call her cousin Grace"
And before l could even draw breath
to ask any questions, we were home ;
and real pretty lady, with a light
blue dress on, was helping me out of
the car, and kissing me as she did SO.
Now, do you wonder that have
been rubbing my eyes and wondering
If l was really I, and If this was An
dersOnville?
ONE. WEEK LATER
1t isn't a dream. It's all really,
truly true-everything: Father COM
ing to meet me, the lovely automobile,
and the pretty lady in the light-blue
dress, who kissed me. And when !
went downstairs the next morning !
found out 1t was real, specially the
pretty lady: for she kissed me again,
and said she hoped I'd be happy there.

1t in a month. 1t was Father. Yes,

1t In a month. It was Father. Yes,
Father!
Why, l could have hugged him,
was so glad. But Of course didn't,
right before all those people. But he
was so tall and handsome and splen-
Gid, and felt so proud to be walking
along the platform with him and let
ting folks see that he'd come to meet
me! But I couldn't say anything
not anything, the way wanted to;
and all could do was to stammer
out:
"Why, where's Aunt Jane?"
And that's just the thing didn't
want to say and knew it the minute
I'd said it. Why, 1t sounded as if
missed Aunt Jane, and wanted her in
stead of him, when all the time was
so pleased and excited to see him that
l could hardly speak.
| He just kind of smiled, and looked
queer, and said that Aunt Jane-er-
couldn't come. Then felt sorry; for
I saw, of course, that that was why he
had come; not because he wanted to-.
but because Aunt Jane couldn't, so he
had to. And I could have cried, all
the while he was fixing it up about
my trunk.
He turned then and led the way
straight over to where the carriages
We're. and the next minute there was
John touching his cap to me; only it
was brand-new John looking too
sweet for anything in a chauffeur
cap and uniform. And, what do you
think? He was helping me into that
beautiful big green car before knew
it.
"Why, Father, Father!" cried
"You don't mean" just couldn't
finish; but he finished for me.
ut is ours-yes. Do you like it?'
"Like It'll" guess he didn't need to
have me say any more. But did say
more. just raved and raved over
that car until Fathers eyes crinkled
all up in little smile wrinkles, and he
said:
"I'm glad. hoped you'd like It,"
II guess do like it !" I cried. Their

CHAPTER vl-continued.

She colored up and bit her lip, and
gave queer little laugh. Then she
grew very sober and grave. and said:
II know. dear. Perhaps am talk
Ing more than used to. But, you see.
I've been thinking quite lot, and l
I've learned some things. I'm trying
to make you forget what said-about
your loving me more than him. That
wasn't right. dear. Mother was wrong.
She shouldn't try to influence you
against your father. He is a good
man; and there are none too many
good men in the world-No. no, won't
say that" she broke.o
But she'd already said 1t, and, of
course, knew she was thinking of the
violinist. I'm no child.
JUNE
Well, once more school is done, my
trunk is all packed, and I'm ready t.
go to Andersonville. leave tomorrow
morning. But not as l left last year.
Oh. no. 1t is very, very different. Why
this year I'm really going as Mary.
Honestly, Mother has turned me into
Mary before I go. Now, what do you
think of that? And If I've got to be
Mary there and Mary here, too, when
can l ever be Marie? Oh, l know l
said I'd be willing to be Mary half,
and maybe more than half, the time.
But when it comes to really being
Mary out of turn extra time, that is
quite another thing.
And l am Mary.
Listen:
I've learned to cook. That's Mary.
I've been studying astronomy. That's
Mary.
I've learned to walk quietly, speak
softly, laugh not too loudly. and be a
lady at all times. That's Mary.
And now, to add to all this, Mother
has had me dress like Mary. Yes, she
began two weeks ago. She came into
my room one morning and said she
wanted to look over my dresses and
things; and 1 could see, by the way
she frowned and bit her lip and tapped
her foot on the floor, that she wasn't
suited. She said:
Il think, my dear, that on Saturday
We'll have to 60 in town shopping.
Quite a number of these things will
not do at ALL"
And l was so happy! Visions of new
dresses and hats and shoes rose be-
fore me, and even the pink beaded silk
came into my mind-though didn't
really have much hopes of that.
Well, we went shopping on Satur-
day, but-did we get the pink silk I?
We did not. We did get-you'd never
guess what. We got two new gingham
dresses, very plain and homely, and a
pair Of horrid, thick, low shoes. Why,
could have cried! did most cry as
exclaimed:
"why Mother, those are Mary
things!"
"Of course, they're Mary things"
answered Mother, cheerfully. "That's
what meant to buy-Mary things, as
you call them. Aren't you going to be
Mary just next week? OF course, you
are And didn't you tell me last year,
as soon as you got there, Miss Ander-
son objected to your clothing and
bought new for you? Well am try
ing to see that she does not have to
do that this year."
And then she bought me brown
serge suit ana hat so tiresomely
sensible that even Aunt Jane would
love them, know. And tomorrow I've
got to put them on to go in.
Do you wonder that say am Mary
already?
The Hope pioneer., 1922-07-06

And she told me to amuse myself any
way l liked, and said, if wanted to,
l might run over to see some Of the
the afternoon, for she was going to
take me to ride.
Now, what do you think of that?
Go to see the girls in the morning,
and take ride-an automobile ride
in the afternoon. In AndersOnville!
Why, couldn't believe my ears. OF
course, was wild and crazy with de
light-but it was all so different. Why.
began to think almost that was Ma
rie, and not Mary at all.
And it's been that way the whole
week through. I've had beautiful
time. I've been so excited! And Moth
er is excited, too. OF course, wrote
her and told her all about it right
| away. And she wrote right back and
wanted to know everything-every-
thing / could tell her; all the little
| things. And she was so interested in
| Cousin Grace, and wanted to know all
about her; said she never heard of her
| before, and was she Fathers own cou-
sin and how old she was, and was she
pretty, and was Father around the
house more now, and did l see lot
of him? She thought from something
I said that l did.
I've just been writing her again, and
I could tell her more now, of course,
than l could in that first letter. I've
been here whole week, and, of
course, know more about things, and
have done more.
/ told her that Cousin Grace wasn't
really Fathers cousin ct all, so it
wasn't any wonder she hadn't ever
heard of her. She was the wife of
Fathers third cousin who went to
South America six years ago and
caught the fever and died there. So
this Mrs. Whitney isn't really any rela-
ton of his at all. But he'd always
known her, even before she married
his cousin; and SO, when her husband
died, and she didn't have any home
he asked her to come here.
l don't know why Aunt Jane went
away, but she's been gone most four
months now, tNey say mere. Nellie
told me. Nellie Is the maid-I mean
hired girl-here now. Il will keep for,
getting that I'm Mary now and must
use the Mary words here.)
told Mother that she (Cousin
Grace) was quite DID, but not so old
as Aunt Jane. And she is pretty, and
everybody loves her. l think even
Father likes to have her around better
than he did his own sister Jane, for he
sometimes stays around quite a lot
now-after meals, and in the evening
mean. And that's what l told Moth.
er. OF course, he still likes his stars
the best Of anything, but not quite as
we'll as he used to, maybe-not to give
all his time to them.
forgot to say that Father is going
to let me go back to school again this
year ahead Of his time, just as he did
last year. So you see, really, I'm here
only little bit of while, as it is
now, and it's no wonder l keep forget.
