CHAPTER XXXV John Herbert was ready nearly an hour before the appointed time. Under the stress of his apprehension he paced the floor of his room, looked at his watch every other minute. consulted the mirror, rearranged his tie, and tried in various ways to regain a reasonable degree of composure. He would be calm enough, he promised himself, once the ordeal was under way. Finding if impossible to remain in his room, he went downstairs with the thought of walking about the grounds. At the foot of the stains he paused to look about. During the activities of preparation the young man had recognized that the affair was in competent hands and had been grateful for his backwoods mother’s wisdom in trusting everything to Wilson and his experts. But tonight. as he viewed the results, he felt more than relieved. There was something more than mere beauty in the arrangements. There was a feeling, a touch, a spirit which brought from him an involuntary exclamation. It was so right, so exactly what one required of such a home There was no feeling that florist and decorator, with their minds on their fees, had done too much. Indeed, there was no feeling of the hired professional at al! | Neither was there anywhere a suggestion of backwoods taste. He experienced all at once a thrill of confidence. Recalling his mother’s reference to the Sleeping Beauty story, be smiled with the thought: “Whoever awoke this old house to such gay and brilliant loveliness must have done it with a kiss.” Suddenly he heard voices. The speakers were hidden by a oank of ferns, but he recognized Wilson saying. “Yes, miss; very good, miss; I understand perfectly.” The reply came in low tones: “I think there is nothing more, then, Wilson. You may go now. I will | wait in the library for the family to -ome down.” “Very good, miss.” The speakers moved away. John Herbert stood rooted to the spot ■ with amazement. He could not be I mistaken. But what—how—this . was magic sure enough. Half-dazed, J bewildered, doubting his senses, buti certain that his ears had not deceived him, he went to the library Hearing his exclamation as he stood in the doorway. Diane turned to face him It was probably sheer Instinct which prompted John Herbert to swing the door shut as he strode into the room. Certainly what followed was not dictated by deliberate reason. The impulses and unpremeditated actions of men and women, we are informed, are usually caused by “instinct” Now and then, as we all know, reason t« caught asleep at the switch Presently, with a reluctant effort ' the girl freed herself. The next instant she had placed half the width of the room between them. John Herbert, gazing at her wonderingly. said, solemnly: “And there are people who do not believe in fairies! What fools, what unutterable, pitiable fools!” Diane was gowned as If for a royal reception. He had never seen her before except in costumes suitable to her work and play in the I wilderness Tier beauty stirred in i him an odd feeling of awe Now I that he had time really to look at I her, he was afraid. She seemed to be so remote—so inaccessible. “I never knew you were like this,” he | muttered, haltingly. She laughed—a little laugh of appreciation. “1 never saw you in evening clothes, either. Yon certainly don’t look much like the hillj billy that I—" She paused and her blush gave him courage to finish the sentence for her—“ That you fell in love with, Diane?” He made a move toward her, but she quickly retreated behind the library table “No, no, John Herbert. If you are going to forget your promise,«if we are not to keep our agreement and wait until things are different —1 shall disappear again, this minnte.” She made a tentative move- | ment toward the door “Forgive me,” he cried, quickly. 1 “I’ll be good. I won’t forget again.” “That’s better," she returned, coolly, even though her eyes denied the calmness of her manner. “Rut I don't understand,” he said. “J thought you were in New York. What are yon doing here?”

She echoed his questions in a tone of mock surprise. “What am I doing here? That’s Q pretty thing for a host to ask his guest* I came to your party, of course. I must have mistaken the time,” she added, apologetically. “It’s not my party," he retorted, with a quick change of mood; “it’s mother’s. She had it all arranged before I knew anything about it." “Well, your mother invited me. There is no reason why I should not be here, is there?” “That depends," he returned, grimly. “You know, of course, why that Lodge crowd is coming?” “I can imagine. Perhaps that’s why I came." “I wonder? Well, 1 hop" you all have a pleasant evening. The show ought to be worth the price of admission." “I don’t think 1 like that, John

Herbert,” she said, steadily. ‘’This may not be your party, as you say. but you’d better make it yours. Before he could stop her she had reached the door and was out of the room. As he overtook her, Diane, with a low exclamation, directed his attention to his mother, who was slowly descending the stairway. Ann Haskel, not noticing the two who stood watching her with such interest, paused at the foot of the stairway, as her sun had done, to view the scene. “How beautiful!” exclaimed Diane under her breath. “Isn’t she splendid? I always knew it was there, but this—this is quite beyond anything I eould imagine. It is magnificent. Her pose is regal. She is every bit a queen, and she knows it Lord! what a picture!” Nor was the artist’s enthusiastic admiration in the least prejudiced. Dressmakers, hairdressers, and beauty specialists had worked their magic. Their training had enabled them to recognize the possibilities of the mountain woman’s personality. Pride in their art, and no restriction as to their fees, had led them to exert themselves to the utmost. Ann Haskel, as she stood against the background of the proud old Carrol home, was a picture of royal womanhood worthy of any artist’s brush. “She said she would show them,” murmured John Herbert, feebly. But it was the uncouth woman of the mountains that greeted Diane a moment later: “Howdy, miss. I’m sure glad you come. This hyear party wouldn’t noways be complete without you. Whar’s the rest of your crowd? Didn’t you-al) come together?” Diane and John Herbert winced at the question. The girl answered, quiekly: “I came alone, Mrs. Haskel. It was so good of you to ask me.”

Members of the Wilderness Club were beginning to arrive, and Diane left Ann Haskel and her son to receive their guests. John Herbert asked, hurriedly, “Have you known all the time that Diane was here in the city, mother?” “I didn’t know hit till after I’d asked the others to the party. ’Pears like one of them Lodge folks told Wilson she war hyear, an’ I ’lowed I’d ought to ask her ’long with the rest of ’em." The mountain woman’s drawling tone was significant. “But, mother, you mutt know that Diane is not like those people. She had nothing to do with their Cinderella joke. Surely you can see how different she is in every way.” “I sure been seein’ how she's ' mighty good friends with 'em. She I lived with ’em, an’ all that. Mebbe I she ain’t one of ’em; mebbe she is. ■ An’ mebbe you’ll tell me why she i
ain’t been to see we-uns since weuns come to the city ? I don’t reckon you forgot to tell her where we war a-goin’. She could ’a’ found us at the hotel same’s Belden did if she war a-wantin’ to be real sure’nough friends. If she ain’t one of the Lodge folks, what’s she cornin’ hycar with ’em fer?” A sudden thought struck John Herbert—a wild, improbable, fanciful possibility. What was it he had heard Diane saying !.o the butler? “But she didn’t come with these people,” he said. “She came alone. You’ll see, before this evening is over, that you’re all wrong about Diane, mother.” “I aim to see a lot of things tonight," the mountain woman answered, “about you an’ me an’ Diane an’ them Lodge folks an’ everything. That’s what I’m havin this hyear party fer.” Mrs. Jones-Williams whispered with great excitement to her eseort: “My Gawd! George Selwin, do you see what I’m seeing, or did you dope that last cocktail?” The ehorns chimed in with: “Look at Ann Haskel.” . . . “I’m looking at her son.” ... “That dress is Paris, or I’m a fish." . . . “Isn’t he simply gorgeous?

While Jane brings the great floral pageant in the garden with peonies, irises, roses and delphiniums. it is the month in which the insect pests bring their families into the world to devour everything in sight in myriads. Every < day must be one of watchfulness to kill them before they get a start. The insecticide business has now reached such a point that there are preparations ready to slay any sort of pest. Ask the I seedsman to recommend one for: your particular pest. They are all tested scientifically and are as proven efficacy. There are two main classes of pests, the chewing and the sucking insects. The former are represented by the races of slugs and worms so called, really caterpillars or larvae of either beetles or moths or butterflies. Cabbage and currant worms are the most familiar and prevalent examples. Plant lice make up the great family of sucking insects. In addition there are most troublesome pests known as mites. Red spiders are the commonest and the deadly larkspur "blacks.” a pest which has driven these magnificent perennials out of many gardens is due. it is now known, to a mite. There are special remedies for mites and for the larkspur blight mite in particular. Ask for these. In addition to the insect pests there are the mildews and molds. Bordeaux mixture is the standard remedy for these. Tobacco is the
