speaker pointed to a pale lad in one corner of the play ground to the pages of Kanes Arctic Expedition But perhaps bo haint anything to give remember every boy here not a rich father a you Howell rich dont jjcneroua impulses True enough but Polly has come to give hes been running er rands for Whitney after hour and tending store down in a low little grocery on Second street and he gets paid for that for roy part dont think Prof ought to admit a of boys to a private school like this why dont ha go to the public thats the place for his kind And the pom redfaced little bluster took a long breath after his long sentence Maybe someone pays his bills here j you know old Colonel ham Bays hes a smart fellow Like his father the Parson laughed the Harris boy Uncle Pete says Parson Porter baa been at work on some sort of a motor for twenty spent oil his money hes as Jobs turkey now and the machine it about as near perfect today as it was when he first began it Maybe Polly will help him out cried one of the boys- Polly looks tike inventor sort of wildeyed and white and wan and a chores of shouts greeted Ms re nark Hes an explorer at present look at pretending to be interested in that book of travels thinks Pro- feasor will admire him for it no doubt I dont believe he that kind of reading a bit more than do and the speaker drew from pocket a ill at rated sheet which he evidently much superior to the book of travels Paul Porter was sixteen and moth His father was man who had been what the world calls fortunate all life He was a well read deep thinking man but and Impracticable to had a fortune in the tab attempt to a which Impossible as 9 Ho was a rtserred and melancholy looking old and hod been dubbd by the in town The When Paul left the grammar school and was about going a as errand boy old a friend of his fathers said day to Mr- Porter Ralph that boy of yours has good head better make something more of him than a hewer of wood and a dravr- of water Paul most earn bis livelihood oven so Colonel interrupted Mr Porter And I fear before long it will be for him to earn mine well my are failing ma fast and Tush tush your eyes are all right and I Paul go to let Ima My boy is a girl you know and Ive set my heart upon a boy to our old Alma Mater there dont say another word as Mr Porter bo to Men with viiiblo emotion And in this way Porter was entered at school He was a shy pale with delicate blue veined temples blonde curly hair the called him Polly at once But notwith standing he looked a trifle he was far from being and they soon discovered tbat in his he could bravely with the strongest and In a difficult study The conversation held upon the play ground was in reference to spread the boys wore contemplating giving holiday week each one was to contribute so much toward the fund affair to bo held at he End and Madams Mycins girls were to bo invited When called upon to donate his shore Paul Porters face flushed up but he gravely and politely asked to be excused from either contributing or participating impatiently asked Guy Karris 1 cannot afford it bravely re plied Paul looking him squarely in the Karris turned upon his heel with ft contemptible Humph he muttered as he strode angrily rather spend his low savings in some low way by himself no doubt How could bo know that it was Paul Por ter proud pleasure and determina tion to pay out of tbe small sums he received for his services at Whitneys and Brooks for wry one the school books it should be purchased for his studies at Prof I will accept Col generous offer for my tuition but what I can I will pay for now he had said when his father had told him of the proposition and when I am able I will repay entire kindly lean Who under the sun moon end stare is that boy you spoke to just now Maud asked Grace as two girls camo out of Madame seminar for young ladies one morning- Oh hes a protege of papas pro paring for and Why Im sure ho brought home my bundle from last Well jrouldnt you speak to him because of that Oh yes in the store bat hardly on the street My papa he is going to be something splendid one of these days and he says hes a little gentleman now papa always takes off his hat to him warmly returned Well here is my Idea of a little Maud look isnt his necktie too sweet for anything and such dear little boots and Grace smiled as Guy Harris tipped his Der by and joined the two girls Whats the topic of conversation may I ask jocularly asked Guy Oh Maud has been pointing out to her gentleman friends you know and Grace giggled Who pray has that honor Guy looked interested Grace nodded her whan he glanced down at own welt worn Jacket bare hands and not even fine toots but he bad put on bis best he could do no more and so he the foolish feeling aside en tered into the full enjoyment of hear ing the rend selections from the poets Sialic followed and Paul thought ho had never heard anything more beautiful than hams voice when aha Under the Daisies 11 Isnt that your hero over there in the shabby suit whispered Grace Howell when Maud left the piano and took a seat beside her Maud floibad up and answered J Yes is I spoke to the other day He is Oh ye I know you old mo all that the boy who is to be wonderful one of days and soon but Our Harris knows him at achooh Ana he ho aint over brilliant and Tbat is a peculiarity of wonder ful men know Grace dont you was a dull boy and and Swift and oven Walter and so but Grace was giggling to loudly at Mauds spirited that Maud left her side and croued to where her father sat beside Professor Hoy Friends began the after having that the composition would now be read I have received a number of most excellent papers on a variety of subjects in competition for the prize I promised but among them all I none better than I am about to present to you It shows a warm appreciation of a noble and gives evidence careful reading And the adjust his cleared bis throat and read iituo Bravo which fcoUr cheer and inohtfolo naifle well I tie Diarys bet italic into my be To While a I iisltiof implicit Iruit jreEy but fouDdat head toward Pauls retreating figure What that fellow I exclaimed Guy Why thats Polly PorUr he tends grocery Fourth Oh Maud what a hero for a ro mance laughed Grace- Sugar and all thats nice she ang out Paul Porter it friend of my fathers and mine Mr Harris with dignity Good after noon Grace and with a bow Maud left her two companions and turned off another street CHAPTER If The boys and Madame girls held during Christmas week had passed off suc cessfully and delightfully and now tho last of thA entertainments was about to come off It was Professor custom on each New eve to hold in his own private parlors what he called a It was a series of read ings recitations and music to which the young ladies from the seminary were invited This year the Profes sor announced a new feature there would bo given a priie for the best composition on any subject to be written by either girls or boys subject to Professors judgment and to be read by him as part ox the Notwithstanding Paul Porter had refused to attend both and reception he felt compelled to ac knowledge Profewoi invito by an acceptance I wish you to be there my boy I want you to contribute your best to iny feast of reason and flow of soul the Profewor had laying a kind hand on the boys arm And had promised to do both Not having been out fa society very much Paul felt somewhat and awkward when he found sarong the brilliant assemblage in the Professors elegant parlors girls vert In foil evening toilette and all the boys wore white tie4 and lore Ho looked a trifle It was brief and for a moment after its completion the assembly pmoddorob with astonishment then there arose a of curious enquiry and wonder Who among the boys and girls a poet pray i belie its Guy Harris he me sweetest Valentine last year composed it himself whispered Grace Howell to her neighbor I that we had an embryo poet among youths of our town Professor said Colonel bat I must confess I feel proud and pleased that it I so and I con gratulate he unknown bard and contestant Pray who deseriogffearerof the laurels this evening Maud felt her heart beating quickly It be possible sbe thought Oh if it only might be glanced over in the corner where Paul sat pale and friendless and their met know it wai he now and the smiled her delight Will tbe competitor please come forward and receive his reward said the Professor No one stirred and the interest evinced by com- panjr was intense Will Mr Paul Potter pleas cept the so deservedly won Paul somehow found himself standing beside the Professor who continued It is fitting surely should receive the works of the greatest poet in the world I therefore present you with the complete works of William Shakespeare and he put into Pails hand a beautifully bound volume Maud drew a long breath of do- Why thy little girl yon ire excited as you it said father bright eyes and cbeektL Indeed I am replied the quick ly girls all laughed at me for speaking to Paul Porter the street other day theyll all be proud to know him ouo day Dont believe bo if mut tered Guy Harris sounds like out of a professor knew and so did Colonel that ibo sparkling eyed ad before them was the author of tbe lines chatter of tbe girt the dressing room they put their wraps sounded like bird house at the Zoo The of that shabby boy win- the A new suit of clothes would have been a mora ap propriate gift Yea calfskin in boots instead of Shakespeare Dont you wish it bad been your brother race J said Maud to her friend pot her cloud before I should bo awfully glad if I bad sucb a brother Just bear got a mash on the new poet Ohl Oh Quick FinY and a shriek of abrill girl broke out in horror In winding pink and white wrap about her tbe laces on Maud a sleeve bad caught in the flame gas beside the glass and in an instant she was in a blaze girls ran wildly away from her down stairs screaming Fire Fire boys came rushing out of their dressingroom near by and stared at the flsmiog figure that cow stood out in the ball screaming Suddenly from among them one dsrted forward and in art Instant Maud was enwrapped and flamea smothered Ob my child 1 my child I Colonel who hearing the shriek bad now bounded to the top of the stain and caught Maud from her arms Let see are urt seriously ha two
