They were in the spring house. he standing in the doorway and bar- ring her exit, and she, with her daily burden of butter. gheese and milk for the dinner table, waiting anxiously to be allowed to pass. “Have I the right, Abe, to follow my own will?" she asked, with a repressed eagerness, which Abe instantly inter- preted as referring to his invitation to her to go with him next day to the circus in town. “I didn’t know that. Abe!" “You’re your own boss when you’re eighteen a'rcady." “But your mother and father support me,” she reasoned, repeating the les- son whirh had been ground into her ever since she could remember any- thing, “and so have a right to control me, haven‘t they ?” There was an anxious wistfulness in her eyes which thrilled her bathed and discouraged suitor with hope. “Don’t you earn your keep and a good bit over where [which] you don‘t get? If they had a hired girl do ualf what you do, still they’d have to give her two a week." 78in, then, I am working for them now to pay for the years they support- ed me when I was too little to work.” “Och, Eunice, you was always won- derful dumm!

I'll tell you." she said gently. “I’d do better by lying down across the railroad tracks and letting the cars run over me." She made another quick move to pass him, for Mrs. Morningstar‘s shrill tones were shrieking angry commands to the girl to stop dawdling there with her the and come in with them "wittles." For any least attention paid to her by the son of her foster parents Eunice was always made to suitor, it being as- sumed gratuitously that the penniless girl and not the prospectively rich youth did the love making. But Abe was so spellbound with amazement at such startling speech from the usually meek and submissive girl that he did not hear or at least did not heed his mother’s voice. As Eunice forced her way past him the close con- tact ot her body sent the fire through his veins. and be seized her about the waist and pressed his lips to her cheek â€"just as his mother, in a rage, strode to the spring house door and as Dr. Kinross, with his books concealed in an old basket, was surreptitiously re- turning by a back way from his morn- ing’s outing. --.U V vâ€"'__ “You little hussy!” cried Mrs. Morn- lngstar. “Go in and tendtothe dinner and leave our Abe be!" “You leave me be, mom,” retorted Abe, looking shamefaced, but his mother, not stopping to discuss the matter with him. walked after Eunice Into the house. her angry upbraidlngs following the girl lnto the kitchen. “-A EVIIV vs... â€". :7 “Now, what a spiritless creature the damsel is not to turn on that woman and resent her abuse!” Dr. Klnross thought. with mingled compassion and impatience, as he slowly followed them up the path to the house. Meantime Abe. still tingling from the joy of his stolen embrace. was hastily examining something that he had found in the spring house which had excited his jealous suspicion. While he had been waiting for Eunice he come to the spring he had acciden- tally discovered. sticking under the ‘door sill, an envelope addressed in [Miss Eunice Morningstar. Now. judg- ing from his own feelings toward the girl. he did not see how any man’s eyes could rest upon her and not de- sire her, and he had therefore leaped to the instant conclusion that this was 11“, _ L VI. iove letter to Eunice from “that dude towner.” as he privately charac- tedzed Klnross. A rage of hot jealousy had swept over him and he had been about to tear the envelope into blta when the sudden appearance of Eunice in the doorway had caused him quickly to conceal it in his pocket. to be exam- lned or destroyed later. So, whiie his. mother was driving the 311‘! into the house with her re- proacbes, he, lingering in the spring house, was tearing open, with hands that shook, the letter addressed to 1m- m; jaw dropped in amazement as he saw the name subscribed at the end of the sheet. I-Ienny Muckiehenny. His sister Ollie’s beau! What could he be writing to Eunice for? Did he want to be a bigamist? With a curl- osity equal to his jealousy Abexresd the brief epistle.
