Mrs. Sage was stand ing almost direetl.s. under the chandelier, talking to dumpy Mrs. Grimes, who nevertheless bravely stood her ground and faced comparison with all the hardihood of the righteons. Mr.

Sage, with a distinctly bewildered and somewhat embarrassed expression keeping company with the prtmd and doting smile that seemed to be stamped upon his lean visage, stood across Ue room with his daughter and Mrs. Sammy, "Do yon mean to tell me, Oliver, that those blighters intend to begin digging up your place tomorrow?" Josephine asked Incredulously. Oliver laughed. "I think well all rather enjoy the excitement. Aunt Jo sephine," he said.

"I suppose they'll begin prying up the kitchen floor tomorrow, or digging trenches fn the cellar, or tearing up the flowerbeds." She looked at him narrowly. "What utter rot Do they expect to find yonr father buried in the cellar or nnder the kitchen floor?" "They don't expect to find him at all," replied Oliver, with unintentional shortness. He glanced over his shoulder at Jane. Their eyes met and their gaze held for some seconds. He detected the clouded, troubled look in hers and was suddenly conscious of what must have seemed to her a serious Intensity in his own.

He knew that he was in love that he always had been in love with Jane, that he always would be in love with ber. He compressed his Hps and fought against the strange, mad impulse to shout that be was in love with ber, that she was his all his and that no man should take her away from him. And she? She was thinking of that dry, hot night when he came to see her. after leaving his father, out of breath, his shoes covered with fresh black Tliere had been no rain for weeks.

And she. herself, had never ceased to wonder. Oliver was strangely restless during the dinner, and immediately after the. company rose from the table at Its conclusion he asked Jane to come with him for a little stroll in the open air.

And Nancy Blways protested that she preferred the' "movies" to the theater. She couldn't bring herself to suggest potted plants Instead of orchids, but she did tell him that she liked carnations. So their engagement dragged on. And it really did drag. Instead of being a glorious season of love and youth and joy and anticipation, it was a drab time enough, with the only consolation for so much self-denial the thought that when they were fifty or slrty they could enjoy all the luxuries they were going without now.

And Jonas Goodrich viewed with disgust his growing bank account "It isn't that I am saving enough to make me rich just enough to make me misers bie." Then they quarreled and after they had quarreled they nt first feU a day or so of real relief. Then came seeping in dreadful regrets, an aching loneliness that was hard to describe, since each had grown to regard the engagement as intolerable. Three days after the breaking of the engagement Jonas telephoned to Nancy. "Hello, Nancy," he said cheerfully. "Of course I know it's sll off between us, but we're still friends and I was wondering if you'd go-out with me this evening." "With her aunt's permission Nancy accepted the invitation, for her aunt and uncle had regretted seeing so good a match fall through.

Jonas drew up to the curb in a little low roadster that made Nancy fairly dizzy with admiration. "It's perfectly lovely," beamed Nancy as she slipped into the seat beside hlra, "but you ought not to have done It." "I don't see what difference it makes to you now," said Jonas. They went to the theater and sat in the best seats, but before they arrived Jonas told Nancy to look for a box on the floor of the car. It was a florist's box and held orchids exquisite, glorious orchids that Nancy adored. After the theater they got again In the car and, instead of going home with Nancy, Jonas sent the car flying along the highroad until they came to an Inn where they could have supper and dance.

Nancy was Just going to reprove Jonas for the expense, when It occurred to her mingled pleasure and pain that after all it was none of her business. Then they started for bom. "We have nad a good time," Jonas suggested. "Btter, in a way, than we ever had when we were engaged," said Nancy. "Then don't let's be eng-ajered aa-aln, said Jonai wistfully.

The thing that had happened was that Nancy Jewett, who had lived now for ten 3-cars with her Uncle Martin and Annt Jane, had become engaged to Jonas Goodrich, the son of one of Martin's best friends. So there they sat, Aunt Jane and Nancy on the lounge and Uncle Martin in a chair drawn up before them. He made a solemn sort of speech to her about the seriousness of the step she was taking and said he was glad that he had neen the means of having introduced her to the man she wanted to marry. "Now, my he went on.

He should start simply as his father "did before him. Liet your pleasures be simple, now, so that they may be more elaborate in your old age.

Tour Annt Jane and I used to feel very happy to take a trolley ride together once a week when we were engaged. We seldom went to the theater. I never sent her cnt flowers but plants in pots which by careful care she could keep for months." After that they talked about the wedding, discussed whether or not they would have it in the front parlor or the back parlor. But to Nancy these things didn't matter. In fact, nothing seemed to matter very much now.

The Joy of her engagement had been taken from her. Potted plants when she had always yearned for orchlds rides in a trolley when she bad longed to snuggle down in the low seat of a little sport roadster beside Jonas. And perhaps she had better tell him that she preferred chewing cum to chocolates, be-, cause one piece of gum would last all day.

The time is pretty short, eh?" lie laughed jovially. Oliver turned on him. "I'll knock your head off, Malone, if you make any more cracks like that.

Remember that, will you?" he cried hotly. Malone was genuinely surprised, lie went very red In the face. "Yes," he said thickly. "I'll be sure to remember It." Oliver apologized to Malone as they were on the point of separating in front of the house. They had traversed the hundred yards or more in silence.

"I'm sorry I spoke to yon as I did, Mr. Malone. I hope you overlook it" Malone held out his hand. "I've been spoken to a good bit rougher than that in my time, Mr. Baxter, and never turned a hnir." he said good-naturedly.

"I don't blame yon for calling me down. I guess I was fresh. But I assure you I didn't mean to be." A little later on Oliver sat on his front porch waiting for his guests to arrive. Mrs. Grimes, in her snug-fitting black silk dress, rocked impatiently nearby.

The guests were late. "It's Josephine Sage," she observed crossly, breaking a long silence. "She's the one that's making 'em late." He looked at his watch. "It's only 7:30, Aunt Serepta. "They're only fifteen minutes late.
