"George?" Constance answered her
mothers second question first. "Why,
George won't know anything about 1t
until it's all over. Then, II he has

Constance rose with dignity and the
impudence Of the present young gen.

Now her daughters engagement to
George Morse had come to Mrs. Peck
as a blessing straight from heaven.
That her restless, daredevil child
should give herself to so splendid and
dependable man.
That evening Mrs. Peck contrived
q moment alone with George as he
waited for Constance to put a finish
ing touch or two before coming down
to go with him to the annual ladies'
night Of the one club to which he be-
longed. And after a few moments
earnest conversation Constance's
mother wound up almost tearfully.

At that moment Constance ap-
peared, but, strange to say, she was
not dressed for attending ladies' night.
Clad in short sport skirt, heavy
sweater and woolen toque she, seemed
ready for an evening out Of doors.

want to go a bit tonight Instead,
let's go over on Benefits pond skat-

George had risen and hands In his
pockets, was glowering, actually
glowering, at Constance.
"What do you mean by this, Con-
ME? You know I came here to take
you. I'll wait exactly half an hour
for you. Otherwise / go alone"
Remarkable to say Constance, as
sisted by mother who was inwardly
wondering If she had been mistaken
in George after all, was ready at the
end Of the half hour, and head high
and chin proudly set marched OFF with
George. The evening was not par
ticularly happy one.
Nor did Constance's two other care
fully planned experiments meet with
any more conspicuous success. Sur
rounding herself with half a dozen
youngsters and two dogs just prior to
this call the next afternoon, she
staged the scene for test No. 2.
George arrived, but instead Of fall
ing to and joining in their, merry
game, he rather peremptorily bade
her "get rid of that gang and call OF
the confounded ours who were yap-
ping at her heels"
1t was almost tearfully that Con-
stance broached test No. 3. She hint
ed at 1t to George as they sat out

dren had been dismissed.

For moment Constance regarded
him queerly. Then, "'rm not sure we
are ever going to be married" she
said coldly. "Tm not sure It's not all
a mistake that we've found out just
In time" 1850
"How come?" asked George pleas
antly, and Constance thought he
seemed very little upset.
"Well. 1--we been testing you"
She burst forth with the whole story,
while George listened with smile
that WINS both tender and apprecia-
