It makes me feel like a somewhat decrepit but well-preserved man of sixty or so." “Nonsense, you know I didn't mean anything like that. But weren't vou one of her admirers?" “Oh, yea—surely none hut a blind man could plead not guilty to that charge! You re one yourself, aren't you? You admire her yourself, don't you?" “Yea—except that I think she’s overly slim for a matron."
Finley gave a brief glance at the slender, lissome form of his hostess, but looked away quickly, lest his eyes linger too long, sat in a swing, amid a cluster of cushions. Her email, dark head leaned back with a slight abandon, and her wistful little face was upMOl SALTS" NOW“TASTELESS” World's finest Physic now Pleasant as Lemonade /m -// I1 S : m 1/1/ j V J- "V- c W ; \ LEMG.HAD€| No other laxative acts so perfectly, so harmlessly on the bowels as pure Epsom Salts.

turned to Goddard, who stood above and behind her. One black slippered foot kept the swing swaying a trifle, and her outrpread hands rested on the sides of the swing. “Do stop that teetering. Nan,' her husband said, pettishly. “I will. Douglas.” and the accompanying smile showed no trace of annoyance. She steadied the swing and sat motionless, crossing her hands on her lap. Her gown was of plain black velvet, a trailing garnish re of fine French flowers its only ornament. Sh r * wore no jew ds. save a string of pearls, and her small, delicate face, though pale was bright and animated. “Why have you so few decomrions tonight, my Raynor went on. looking her over critically. “In honor of our returned traveler you should have donned your bravest war paint." “Beauty unadorned.” Nan said, smiling, but Finley saw her bands clasp tightly, as if there were a disturbing undercurrent to her husband's remarks. "Not your beauty,” Raynor “You're too pale, my dear, to claim that your face is your fortune.” “Then tell me so when we're alone, Douglas. Personalities —" “There she goes again! Always lecturing me on my manners! What would you do, Finley, if you had a wife that never stopped pestering you ?”
“I'd let her pester," Malcolm said, and his cool voice gave no sign of the ang*r in his breast. This, then, was the way Raynor was a brute. “Yes—one has to," and Ilayn >r sighed. overemph.atically. “I've given up trying to mend her ways —but it is tiresome to be caught up continually.” i- Oh. I don't, Dougins. Don't be lieve him. Malcolm: he's teasing me. And by the way. Douglas, how do you like the new rhododendron beds?" "A fine question—considering you placed them exactly where I asked you not to! Why did you do that’ To prove your independence of my wishes, op merely to be contrary”" “But. Douglas dear, they're just where you said you wanted them!” “Nothing of the sort. You misunderstood entirely. You would, of course. Oh. well, I can’t expect to have anything ass want it around this place With your knowledge of gardens and landscapes. Nan, I s' ' i think you could see for yourself that they should he fifty feet, at Fast, farther from the arbor.” “I’ll have them changed.” Nan spoke dully. listlessly, as if she would rather change the whole garden plan than have any further dissension. “Yes, and spend a fortnight more of the gardeners’ time! You’ve no conception of the value of time—or of money. I should think your early days of forced economy, woujd have taught you not to be quite so extravagant. Where you going, Orville?" "Out.” said Orry, shortly. “Star gazing.” he added, with a smile at Finley “Want to go'.’” Finley went and Miss Raynor at once began to discuss him. “What a nice man h is,” she said: “hut not much of a talker. I couldn't draw him out at all." "Nancy could —without half trying,” said Nancy’t husband. “I believe I'll get some fun out of that chap. I’m a great student of hu man nature, as you know.

And instead of making up for it at dinner, you transgressed again.” “Did I? Well, it was tNat. damned chocolate roll! I mv wife ; orders it just to tempt ne beyond J endurance. She knows how fond of it I am. Did you, Nancy?” “No, Douglas, you know I didn’t!” “Well, why did you order it, then? T noticed you scarcely touched it j yourself ”
“Yes, Nancy,’’ chimed in Miss ! Mattie, "why did you, have it? To please your guest?” "Yes, to please Mr. Goddard," said Nan, bravely smiling. “I don't wish to have anything on the table that my brother doesn't want there,” the |irim spinster declared. They were rather alike, the brother and sister. Both were very thin, with thin gray hair and thin, high voices. They looked as if they were thin blooded, and though a thin veneer of culture showed on the surface, one gained the impression that beneath were vry primitive and unbridled impulses.

positive determination on at least one point. Nancy Raynor vowed to herself that not one word or glance of a personal or oven friendly nature would she vouchsafe to Malcolm Finley. For she divined her husband was on the lookout for such and would exaggerate and distort their meaning to the discomfiture of ail concerned. Ezra Goddard vowed to himself that he would drop another hint, a strong one, to Finley on the advisability of keeping away from his hostess. Miss Mattie vowed to herself she would find out the true state of affairs between Nan and Mr. Finley, and if she could find the least thing to report she would hasten to her broth- r with the matter. Orville Kent concluded that Nan was doing wrong, and lie must consider carefully whether to speak to her on the subpeet or not. Eva Turner promised herself to be more careful in the matter of her employer’s diet. And Malcolm Finley solemnly and roundly swore to himself that he would stop, look and listen a little further, and then, if he was satisfied that that old curmudgeon was really maltreating that darling girl, he, Finley, would settle the said curmudgeon’s hash—in one way or another! Finley would not see the members of the family until luncheon time, unless by chance. And, having seen Nan out among the gardens, he concluded to make his own chance.
