McFARLANE One warm hazy October afternoon Rose strolled about the lawn and gard- ena,ystoppiryrtst total-vols to wateh.t passing vehicle or exchange remarks with her father, who was reading in his study.

"Not first, Miss Minturn. I am out of practice. I've enjoyed these books very much, and Iwiah I had another ten days to spend hem." "Can't you take them." "No, indeed!

"rt this is Four last day, why not spend it here with not" " shall be delighted to." was the prompt reply. Mr. Minturn strolled off, and Rose began to dlscuss the wonden; of orchids. It was to see them especially that the coming trip had been decided upon. - _ -riGriGl Eoi'v'dii'y sEcoaastdl, I fear, in winning." _ _ . . . A click interrupted the converse- tion. Rose looked toward the gate, started to her feet. and hurried to meet young Everett. His eyes were shin- ing; he held out his hands. Rose put here in them. and gazed at him. Her smile was enchanting, her cheeks were flushing, her eyes reflected his hap- piness. Neither spoke, and they had reached the porch when the presence of a, third person ended the spell. Rose recovered voice and grace. "Mr. Everett, Mr. Burrows," The men exchanged bows and glen- ces, and a desultory conversation took the place of the one devoted to orchids. Rose was so thoroughly contenued. with the knowledge that Everett had passed successfully that no other idea presented itself to her rapt senses. When her father Joined the group she new by his manner that he understood the meaning of Everett’s presence, and she left the three men to their own de- vices and hastened to order decora- tions for the table and to add one, or- nament to her own dress, -- - "We must have a. jolly evening, grandma!" she exclaimed rapturoualy. "Mr. Everett is here, and Mr. Bur- rows 1vill gtay to -dutmsr.'l _ _ "So Mr. Everett in over hie trouble. I'm so delighted. Well, he deserved to succeed. How he worked all trom hot days!" "Indeed he did i" "I wonder it his mother knows?" "I haven't asked him equation. You see. Mr. Burrow: was there when he "He didn't mention names. nor bind me to secrecy, so I am going to tell you what has embittered him. He has been very badly treated by people who should be above such conduct. It seems that they live in New York, and they have social standing. He met them several years ago on asteamer going abroad. and was regularly in- troduced torthem by amutual friend." "How happy she will feel! Isn't it lovely? Did you have Lyery difficult examination t" "It seemed very easy" "The next year is the most agree- able, according to Mr. Burrows." "Is he the agglessive individual?" "Yety--bat don't think of that; he has explained his reasons for growing megtigal and desperate." -iisrGisit'ts face was astudy. Rose ig- nored his increasing stiffness. - _ - When Rose returned to the porch Everett was alone. His manner was pe- culiar and his expression new to Rose. She overcame the embarrassment by showing him her pendant. It was an anchor of graduated pearls with bril- liants forming, the hooks. _ ' "Yes, and I want you to be very nice and sympathetic with him. He is leaving on the early train in the mgrningghis vacation is "over.'-', "How awkward!" "But this is Mr. Burrowa' laat ev- ening.

Now comes the curious part of it. When they returned home, and he called at the house, he was told that she was not at home. This occurred several times, so he wrote: but his letter was never answered. Be cannot under- stand such behavior. He says he is quite sure that the girl liked him, and so far as famiiy__is concerned, his is " promised you I would. Does your mother know t" “I came first to you.

"PII be as nice with him " 1 pos- sibly can. We‘ll travel together. and perhaps I may win his con 'denoe. Pm very curious to know the name _ot these people. To tell the truth, Miss Rose, thitrpraetiots of accepting men and jilting them is a very common one. Women like to test their powers of attraction." "Or perhaps this girl thought she was in love and afterward found out her mistake." 1 "You am charitable." “Well, it might happen." " Is this your experience!" "No, for I haven't had any. I am not susceptible daddy says." "I wonder how true that is!" " Be ought to know something about me. He has studied me all my life." " What is it, then, that appeal: to rout You treat me better than any one I ever met, and you have won the confidence of this young fellow who thinks he in In love with another wo- "Why, you both needed sympathy' when I met you."

I have been promised all November. I have visions of the Home Show and the Flower Show. the- atres. and teas and dinners. I like ev- ening receptions, however-with a dance, perhaps." .. Very nicely. I feel quite satisfied now to finish and graduate; but for a while I thought seriously of giving it up and trying to assist father in his ware. He writes me that he is better, and he wants me to complete the course. The months will soon pass and I'll be at liberty to choose apro- fossion." " How can I find oat when you will be in the city?

Rose met his glance and smiled. "You will be too busy, too absorb- ed in books." , "I hope you don't mean that!

The Flower Show exceeded all that Rose had pictured to her imagination. She almost lived in the Garden. Some- times, armed with her catalogue, she carefully examined the curious and rare plants that attracted botanists. The long names. often more impres- sive than their owners, were puzzling and entertaining. The decorated ball- room was very beautiful, and she rath- er enjoyed the gorgeousuess of the cut- glass on the dinner-tables. The enam- elled ornaments, in imitation of or- chids. were fascinating as a triumph of the J'eweller'ts art. and the cut flow- ers were an endless source of delight. Hose would revel in all these sights and then find a seat overlooking the display. This effect was intoxicating, indescribable. The palms suggested a tropical forest. The orchids resembled exquisite birds of brilliant plumage floating in the air above them. The delicate green of the ferns threw into greater relief the showy masses of ohrytsanthemuma, The electric light turned the scene into fairy-land, and all worldly noises grated ce the senses and produced the discord that brought one back to earth and its doings. -- "Bat now (Eat I have no need of this sympathy are you going to think of met" One afternoon Rose found herself watching a man who was examining the dishes of out flowers, evidently with a view to purchasing some of these prodigious blossoms. If size is the desideratum, surely our florists are basking in success. This man was bent double with age and infirmities, and supported himself with a heavy cane. His head moved as if no longer under muscular control, and his steps were slow and uncertain. Rose looked for his valet, but he was apparently unac- companied inside the Garden. What most attracted her was the expression of his ttuse-it was so keen, so bright and comprehensive. The roses. half a. foot in diameter, evidently excited his admiration; but then the ehrraanthe. mums were still larger. and seemed to fairly dazzle him by their color and grandeur. In fact, these flowers per- sonified our little world. Rose bent over some bunches of white violets and wondered If the old man would notice them. No. he was intent on the great people who occupy the foreground and overshadow their quiet superiors. It was also apparent to Rose that the pretty girl behind the table was very attentive. as it she recognized her .customer. "I don't know. Wait until Novem- bar; than I will tell you." "He la probably a milllonalre." thought Rose. "and in bought here before. I wonder what he want- with those gran. ehrraanthemumal Por- huas hp hay , gnaw“? . . A- ........ - - - .-....-...__. She hurried forward to pick up the‘ old man’s cane. for while accepting the flowers and tumbling with a. roll .o.f bills and . huge pocket-book the luck slipped to the floor. Rose held it while he replaced his money, shoved the book into an inside pocket In his overcoat and secured his bunch of wondrous blossoms. Then he took his cane and fixed his eyes on Rose. Ther brighten- od_Itith pleasure. "You ire very good. I know your face very well. but I don't recs.“ your nuns." Rose sued st him. Interested yet embarrassed, and et that moment her Party Joined her. It consisted ot the Everetts. Miss Van Ness and Mrs. Min- turn. slowly moving in the crowd. Mrs. Minturn spoke impulsively. "Mr. Pouncel Bow glad I am to see you I" 7 "And who is this! I knew her at once. She looks like you." Mrs. Minturn laughed pleasantly. "Bo people say. She is my grind- child. Robert's daughter. You rememq her Mrs. Everett t" I Mr. Pounce ecxnmedged the Ever- ette and Miss Van Ness. but clung to ‘Mrs. Minturn, and seemed anxious to arrange another meeting where they could converse without interruption and observation. A Rose heard a dinner invitation ac- cepted, and then Mr. Pounce shuttled toward the entrance. with his flowers peeping from the folds of white tissue paper. and his heart no doubt throb- bing with the recollection of Janet hopes and old memories that the ght of a girl's bright face had awakened. Half an hour later, when young Everett reached the Garden, Rose de scribed this adventure. A " _ F "Nothing. I have been looking for you. I want to see through your x eyes. You appreciate and know some- ', thing about flowers, whine I don't." 1 "Haven’t you met friends t" I "I just spoke to Mr. Everett-or Irather he recognized me." "What a, curious incident." he said. with interest. "He doesn't take any notice of us from one year's end to an- other. I hear he has a beautiful house tnd lives in clover. all by himself.'.'.. "In Chrysanthemums. you mean. He :hoae the biggest In the bowl." "For the money. no doubt." "fathom so. What have you to tell me " “Let us get out of this jam. and go up in the boxes where we can look at the effect. I didn't make any headway with Burrows that morning. Have you seen him since t" __ "Yea, he has called on us at the hotel. and he in probably here now. [two could watch for him he would jom_ In." "Pm In a. dilemma; I thought I Md 5 claw to something that disturbs me, but I have not been able to follow It up. In Mollie here t" "Yes. she went to got tons f1owartg to was: to-night.

She told me she needed entertainment." "He has an inexhaustible mine ot fun. You have to admire his wit; he sees things his own way. and puts his views so quaintly. I don't believe Miss Daghne could do_better."_ . .- . VIE}; Gd Gui" ithitr she is not able to appreciate him. His best speeches tall tut to her ears.” _ _ "They must. She has no cultivation. and he is well educated and comes of good stock. He " brilliant among kin- dred souls who reflect his darts. There, Miss Rose, isn't that Burrow" Per- haps I can attract his attention. I want to try an experiment. I'll leave you together and trust you to bring him to join the entire party. Let me see-in that ball-room, say. in half an hour. Don't tell him that you expect to meet us there. Can I depend up- on you t" "Bo do I. I have had no my of reaching the truth of the matter. Mol- lie hes been out of town until this week, and Burrows was reserved to an extent that justified my conclusion. By the way. have you seen much of my father t" f "He comes regularly, brings me the most exquisite flowers and bonobonl enough for a dozen. I am going to the theatre with him to-night." "Bow does he seem to you t" "Very wen-in good spirits and so handsome." "He got all the good looks of the family. You are too honest to contro- diet me." Rose watched the meeting between the two men, and thought she felt the cool reserve with which Everett's frank advances were received. This manner of his--so easy, yet so earnest, which seems to be in-born where it exists- was calculated to win respect and con- fidence. It was evident tint Burrows exerted his pride and self-control to resist its influence. His expression of annoyance vanished as Rose met his glance and smiled her welcome. ”That's consoling. too." "Here is Mr. Burrows." "I'll just speak to him as I pass. to avoid exciting his suspicions. Pit see you afterward}: _ A - “Yes. I am quite interested.

"Let us understand each other. Isn't truth to nature the highest possibility in art! I think Mr. Everett was en- dowed with something that others study to possess.
