of a stern New England father,

She wore what! was, to the farm-bred Aaron, a fabulous dress of brown delaine with a demure fichu of lace, and the wide skirt of the day, stiffened and arching tke a bell Where Rebecca pasted her hair down and Nadine scrambled it up, Selene’s black hair was erected In -a snailshell crown; Nadiné’'s idea of holiday elegance was a flutter of muslin, with badly sewed seams -and things pinned on things and falling off, costume was severe.

She was the imperious princess who had never| heard -of anything 20 nasty and uncomfortable as: revolutionar-| jes, and who was kind to the peasantry with a flavor of disgust| in it.

Harge was lamenting, “Aaron, I'm not so young, and neither is Brother Speezer, at our shop, and you might look forward to being the gallant captain of our ship of salvation. The Lord: says Come. 1 am just a faltering voice, trying in my humble way to pass on to you the petition of the Master!” When dinner was finished, Selene rose smoothly and, with all her boy-and-girl galety gone in

sprang up explosively and seized her hand, but she looked at him with the most silken indifference, and their handshake was nothing more than fingers crossed on chilly fingers, a network as lifeless as dry twigs, and she was gone, not looking back. ~ ” - IT WAS no task at all for Aaron | to. give.
