Juliet had never known anything but lavish luxury, the indulgence of every whim or caprice. Marjorie had grown up between the dim blues, the happy silences of wide, wide fields. She loved them with a passion Juliet had and twenty, pulsing with life and | health, it was joy Indeed to find her- | self part of a world so different. Juilet was a pocket Venus, golden | as was her fortune; Marjorie of a dusk fairness--white skin, with pink In the cheeks, eyes so deep- ly dark you might not name their | color, with silken black hair, and feet that seemed made for dancing, high arched and light stepping, as though on air.

One reason for sparing his girl was to let her see her- self on the famous walls--and let the Dad had | artist himself see how marvelously | close he had come to nature An explanation that had quite changed the color of affairs. Juliet had made haste to see the picture, to tell her friends all about It, to make { fic circumvents by way of Madison ave touch with the artist, invite him to | Greatrock for week-ends, and llonize him more than he liked. Possibly the | misliking had had something to do | with his sudden running away to the wilds. Marjorie was not sure--in. deed she was doubtful as to several things. Chiefest among them was the state of her own heart. Tennant, the artist, . was undeniably fascinating, handsome, vivid, world schooled, yet keeping something of wholegome freshness. He had not made love to her in her own home--a scruple that had appealed to her strongly. Safe away, he had written of what he felt for her, asking neither answer nor re- turn--they could wait until the two of them met again--meantime she must not quite forget .him, but think | and think of him, so she might know what answer to make. In face of that she could not write him of her engagement ta Bill Clark, planter and next neighbor, who had gone away with his sick mother to Arizona, hoping its air might save her life. He was there still, though the hope had vanished. "Rut--she loves it so here--and will die easier" he had written to his sweetheart. She had told Tennant everything the first time he came to Greatrock. The tell- ing had been a facer, but he took It gallantly, saying only: "My hope will live until it faces either a wedding ring or a coffin lid." but making neither outcry nor protestation. A month later he had lost himself--and throughout the long weeks since, no word had come from him. Thus he pergola roses were in their flush of high summer bloom when Juliet sank down breathless in thelr shade, her mirth all gone, her face tense, her eyes darking. She turned upon Marjorie, saying angrily: "I suppose it will be a statue next-- you're learning to hold the pose for it so beautifully." ' "For which of the Christian virtues do you think?" Marjorie "I do--oh, I do," Juliet hissed, then | broke Into wild sobbing. "And--and ~--I would make him lore me--if only you were out of my way." "You are sure" from Marjorie, Juliet fell face down upon the mar | ble seat, crying between tempestuous sobs; "I know It! 3en have to love me If I want them to." | "You would take him from me, even { If T loved him as you do?' Marjorie | asked, the melting gone from her face. | "I would. Ycu cannot love him, need him as I do." Jiliet burst out, springing suddenly upright, her hands clinching. Marjorie looked at her hard. Then, | "Tou may take him--if you can! Oh, life's spoiled child!" she sald, hurry- ing away after the last word, mean- Ing to go straight home by the earliest train. Oft when woman disposes, Fate In- terposes. She did it now sending Tennant and Bill Clark to Greatrock | at the same hour, though from oppo- | site directions. They came first upon Marjorie, but with Juliet three steps | behind her, a lovely Juliet, flushed, | downcast, appealing, as no man had ever seen her before. Marjorie, both | hands fast in Billy's, opened her mouth" to say: "Here ig your new cousin." But something in his eyes checked the speech. She saw wonder melt electrically Into a quick flame-- one she was too wise to misunder | stand, too righteous minded to smoth- er. Therefore she presented them ome to another in due form, turning then | to Tennant, with the thing he had | hoped for Shining in her own eyes. As she gave him a single hand she | whispered mischievously: "We are In the way--those two need to console , each other. But remember how you will be handicapped hereafter, marry- Ing your model after the usual fash- fon." "I am fully resigned." Tennant whispered back, leading her again to the ambush of roses.

Mount Morris park, in New York city, stands In the axis of America's Fifth avenue Washington square to the Harlem river at One Hundred Forty-third Street--a distance of seven miles--except at Mount Morris park. There it is block- aded by a mass of Manhattan schist, about eight acres in extent, and as high as a seven-storied building, standing in the midst of a 20-acre park, which traf- ' nue on one side and Mount Morris Park West on the other.

" Grouch, connoting ll will or resent. ment against a person or condition, or grumbling discontent, dates from | 1400. As a synonym for ill humor or | bad temper it is a colloguialism com- | mon to the United States. "The word | sprang up from the fertile hotbed of | American patois--Iit was the sponta- neous coinage of the streets. Like Topsy, it 'just growed. Let's make one, and say that It is contraction and combination of the words 'grow!' and 'speech'--the first sound of the one Joined to the latter sound of the other, That really fits the case. The man with a grouch begins almost every speech with a growl" says Eugene Thwing in the Christian Herald, The words grouch and grouchy are col- loquialisms. ------ The Cut of Man's Coat Collar. i The nick that appears in the collar of the masculine coat Is a reminder of the days when the back of the col- lar actually stood up around the back and sides of the neck to the height of the neckerchief, while the lapels lay flat. The nick was then a deep slash without which the collar could not have stood up or the lapel lain down.
