CHAPTER XXIX. "I sure am Interested, Mr. Belden. Leastways, Ibe if your place is the sort of place I’m a-wantin*. I may's well tell you right now, though, wc-uns ain't a-wantin' nothin’ less’n the best what’s to be had." “Good!" ejaculated the lawyer. “I can assure you that this home is complete in every detail. It is distinctly a home of culture and refinement—a home of the best traditions. And, fortunately, it stands exactly as it was when the late occupant left it—the furnishings, the paintings and works of art, the library, the automobiles —even to the butler who has had the management of the establishment for years. The butler, you understand, has been held to look after things pending some disposition of the property. Everything is in readiness for immediate occupancy. The grounds, I should add, are ample and very beautiful. It is all a bit old-fashioned, perhaps, and the city has grown up around it, but, as I say, it is distinctly a home of culture, of good taste, fine traditions, and beauty. But why not drive out with me right now and inspect the property—see it for yourself? My car is waiting. It will require only a little time. Really”—he smiled—“now that I know you as Judge Shannon’s friends, I am anxious, for more than business reasons, to see you settled in this ideal home.” “Hit all sounds fine, Mr. Belden,” Ann returned. “But—wal, sir, I war figgerin’ on giftin' Nance an’ me some clothes first thing. These we air a-wairins all right fer whar we come from, but—” She finished with s laugh. “Oh, you laves 1” cried the bachelor, gaily. “But think how much easier you’ll do your shopping with your own automobile and chauffeur, Mrs. Haskel.” He looked at John Herbert. “I am sure your son will agree with me that you will be infinitely more comfortable in the privacy of your own home with your own servants than you ean possibly hope to be in this public place—particularly as the city, I understand, is new to you.” “I’m sure Mr. Belden is right, mother,” said John Herbert. “It will take only an hour or two. and it seems to be exactly what we want.*’ “Really,” added the lawyer, with his ready smile, “it would be an ideal place for you to entertain your friend. Judge Shannon, the first time he comes to the city." Ann Haskel arose abruptly. “I reckon we may’s well settle hit first as last. Git your bonnet, Nance.” To Belden and her son she added: “Nance’d be scared plum’ to death if I war to leave her hyear alone." All during that ride in Mr. Belden's car from the hotel to the home in which he was trying to interest her, Ann Haskel was absorbed with thoughts which, apparently, she could not share with her companions. For the first time since leaving Wilderness Station the mountain woman took no interest in her surroundings. She was as indifferent to the roaring city which surged about them as if she had been born and reared in a crowded tenement district. Her son noticed his mother’s mood and wondered uneasily. Could he have knovA the memories which had been aroused—the dead hopes which had been awakened—the banished dreams which had come again at the lawyer’s smiling suggestion that she might entertain her friend. Judge Shannon—the last of the Haskels would have been astounded. But when the automobile turned from the busy traffic of the street and stopped before tall, proudly designed iron gates in a high stone wall, the mountain woman awoke to her surroundings. The gates were opened for them to enter, and closed behind them to shut out the city which on every side besieged the walls with noisy turmoil. As the automobile moved slowly up the long tree-shaded drive between wide "lawns of velvet smoothness, and shrubs and flowers of many varieties, toward the house which stood with all the proud dignity of other years to receive them, the young man caught his mother’s ■rm with quick delight.

Ann, thrilling to the touch of her boy’s hand, whispered, with full understanding, “Hit's jest like that thar fairy place I done read about once, whar the princess and everything war asleep, waitin' fer the prince to come along an’ wake ’em all up with a kiss." Which, we must allow, was a remarkable observation to come from a woman of Ann Haskel's general reputation. Nance Jordan drew a long breath. “Smell the trees an’ grass an’ everything! Hit’s jest like ’tis at home, ain’t hit? Only prettied up a mite more. I’d sure like to walk on that grass an’ feel hit under my feet—if a body dasL” They were met at the door by a grave-faced elderly man who bore himself with a tine air of mingled authority and deference, and who greeted Mr. Belden with restrained friendliness.

With a quiet little laugh, Ann turned to the lawyer: “I’ll buy hit, Mr. Belden, jest as hit stands. How much?”

“This is Wilson, the butler of whom I told you, Mrs. Haskel,” said the lawyer. “Wilson, this is Mrs. Haskel and her son Mr. John Herbert, and Miss Jordan. Is everything in order for Mrs. Haskel to inspect the place, Wilson?” “Right, sir. This way, if you please, madam.” From room to room they followed Wilson silently. In describing that home the lawyer had not exaggerated. Several generations of true culture had contributed to its charm and beauty. Thera was not a false note anywhere. There was not the faintest touch of vulgar display. Wealth was evidenced on every hand, it is true, but never for itself. John Herbert was delighted beyond expression. Nance crept on tiptoe, with frequent glances over her shoulder as if fearful of being pounced upon and dragged off to prison for being “whar sich as weuns ain’t got no right to be." Ann Haskel was as one walking in a dream Now and then she crowded close to her son’s side and put a questioning hand on his arm, as if she needed to reassure herself by his presence When the inspection was over, the mountain woman, in her rude backwoods speech, expressed accurately the feeling of the place: “Hit’s plum’ easy to see that the folks what lived hyear war sure-’nough quality. I’ve alius sort of knowed thar’d be houses like this fer the right sort of folks to live in But I sure never 'lowed I’d git a chance to see one of 'em with my own eyes.” Then she paid what lawyer Belden considered a beautiful tribute to her son: “Hit sure fits you. Herb. Seems like hit war jest natchally made fer you. Do you reckon you could make out to do your writin' hyear?” There was no need for John Herbert to put his answer into words.

With a quiet little laugh Ann turned to the lawyer: "I’ll buy hit, Mr. Belden, jest as hit stands. How much ?” Mr. Belden was slightly disconcerted. “I fear you misunderstood me, Mrs. Haskel. "The place is not for sale—that is, not at present; later, perhaps—well—it all depends upon certain developments. lam to lease it because, as you can readily understand, it would be much better for the place to have it occupied by good, reliable, appreciative people. “When can we move in? ’ Mr. Belden turned to tho butler. “How about servants, Wilson?” “If madam desires, I can have a full staff here within two hours. I have them all in readiness as you ordered, sir. If madam wishes, she need not return to the hotel at all. I will arrange for the luggage to be brought immediately. If I may ven-

ture the suggestion, madam, I think you and your family would be much happier dining at home this evening.” Ann looked at her son and her dark eyes were fairly dancing with delight. “I reckon me an’ Herb could stand hit,” she drawled. “But mebbe Nance’d rather go back to the hotel.” “Now, Ann Haskel,” whined Nance, “you know good an’ well w-hat I’m a-wantin*. You ain’t got no call to make fun of me jest ’cause we-uns air in the city. You didn’t never used to do hit back home.” When Mr. Belden was leaving he said: “I’m sure you will find Wilson invaluable, Mrs. Haskel. He has been in charge here for years. You can trust him to manage everything for you perfectly. I suggest that you advise with him freely. I imagine he can even tell you about the proper dressmakers. He is wise, experienced in all the ways of his former employers, and he never betrayed a confidence in all his life. As for myself, please fee) free to call upon me at any time. 1 shall be most happy to serve you.” As the mountain woman and her son stood on the veranda, watching the lawyer’s automobile down the drive, Ann said, in an awed halfwhisper: “Hit’s all jest like the story, ain’t hit, Herb?” "What story, mother? What do you mean?" “You know,” she answered—“the fairy godmother, the chariot, the palace—hit’s jest like thar war somebody a-managin’ hit all fer poor old Ma Cinderella.” She laugl’.ed w-ith a little catch in her voice. “I’m sure hopin' hit don’t all vanish clean away come midnight. I'd hate to wake up a-sittin' in the cinders back home an’ find all this war jest nothin’ but another dream.” (To Be Continued) Cnrrrtffht. Itxi Harold Rati Df«trV>uted Kina Faaturet Syndicate. Ina.

There is a wide divergence of opinion among American gardeners and English as to the relative ■ merits of tne summer squash. The | American clings Io the crookneca ! and the patty pan as much mere' resembling something to eat than i the marrow while the English; gardener sets great store by the vegetable marrow. Thev are plants of the same genus. The ! marrow will be more thoroughly I appreciated when cooking methods are revised to suit it and pre-1 serve both its substance and flavor. Vegetable marrows from seed require a moderately rich soil, good cultivation and water supply in dry spells. They require tbe same fight against bugs as io' their relatives, the cucur larj. melons and squashes. Th small , varieties of marrow are far more I palatable than the large types. I Ticked at the right season of I growth they are .suggestive of the earlier season asparagus in delicacy or flavor. They may be i picked w hen iw o days old ami I should be picked while the skin i is still so tender that it can be • readily broken with the thumb or finger nail. Tbty should not be; peeled but should be cooked i whole. 1
