that her work there was nearing its
end. He had held off on the subject
OF his own plans, knowing that it
would exhaust Kathleen to do two Jobs
at once. Then, day, an idea struck
him.
Miss Nevins, you live downtown,
don't you?" he asked.
YES"
"I wonder whether, If I let you off
an afternoon now and then, you'd be
willing to look UP houses for me? Miss
Corey Is absorbed at this moment in
the decoration of a big place. I thought
we could save her time and energy II
you would look over the field and find a
half-dozen houses that might appeal to
her?"
"Td be delighted to do It," Miss
Nevins replied. II find house hunting

Miss Nevins devoted that afternoon

very much. And I have a theory that
you ought to have altogether different
| decorations for Summer and Winter.
II this were my house, I'd paper this
room In q plain cream. And I'd hang
no pictures. For, Just as soon as the
| Spring comes. the shadows Of the leaves
will cover the ceiling and the walls.
AS the wind blows, those shadow shapes
will change constantly.
"I'd furnish this room with as few
| things as possible. I'd have chintz
covers for the furniture. with a green
note in it-long, glossy, spiky leaves.
I suppose I'd have some glass about,
because 1t catches and holds the light.
But mainly I think I'd let the tree
shadows own the place"
"Oh, I say" Stephen exclaimed, az
that frieze of af-shadoWs changing
all the time Is simply great. Now tell
me what you'd do in the Winter"
"And then, when the Winter came,

a lovely geratium pink-red that I've

things that the freight would glow
in"
Stephen laughed. IT accuse you of

becoming to you. You know you

Miss Nevins laughed absently.

The next floor was q pair Of big

For the first time, he saw Miss

| was so snowy. 1t was as white Is

| blush stained 1t as though an unseen

| she was beautiful!
TN the afternoon they showed Kathleen
L the house. They, because Kathleen
had asked that Miss Nevins be SO good
as to come along.
Alighting from the cab, Kathleen
swept the street with her swift gaze.
Stephen became suddenly conscious OF
the drug store on the corner, OF an ash
| barrel in front of the next house, OF q
| group Of children in the distance.

who understands such things"
"I1l be very glad indeed to do that"
| Miss Nevins answered.
The next morning a taxi took them
to q quiet neighborhood in q quaint old
section OF the city. The street was
lined with houses of old red brick, shut
tered in green; steps and yard ratings
were of a gracefully figured iron. A
| Sunday calm lay upon everything. The
air was gracious, the sky aniable. The
sun was painting the entire scene with
faint gold. They stopped at a house
midway in a block between two
churches.
| Miss Nevins said eagerly, will you
let me show the house to you in the
order I prefer?"
DO" Stephen entreated.
She took him downstairs first. What
at the back had been the ample old
kitchen was now the dining room.
Here the generous old fireplace partic-
| ularly engaged Stephen. But his gaze
had acquired a curiously remote en-
preston, as though he were contem-
plating something in his own mind.
He dropped remarks, at once absent
and thrilled: What a bully fireplace!

He followed Miss Nevins upstairs.

ceilinged, with two marble fnentels and
a beautiful cornice.

his gaze stayed, as though he were
watching the pageant with which his
imagination peopled the quiet spaces.

'This isn't the best aspect" he said
apologetically. I'VE need scarcely see

He took the key from Miss Nevins
and unlocked the door, usflered the two
women in.

her into the basement first.

The Vienna office of the United

fences are thoughtful and sufficiently

Because she gives SO much and takes
so little she is unusual. One wonders
how she found time to complete a uni

she springs.
