the day had been delightful but about three oclock the clouds had begun to gal her and by fiyo they were black and menacing It was a relief to Joe when the last fork- of hay went into the barn He clapped the horses on their moist flanks Good work he said pleasantly Even if the faithful animals did not under stand praise Joe argued that no harm was done by praising them As he came out of the barn he saw an automobile turning up the driveway and instead of going to the house he stood awaiting its coming He had no doubt as to what lie occupants wanted shel ter from the rain that was a by now and supper in all probability There was always enough at the farmhouse fo one or- two extra All that was ne cessary was to pull up more chairs to the tabic The occupants of the oar prov ed to be a man and woman both In their forties Joe judged from a hasty glance The face of the woman drew his and held It The dust of the journey which showed plainly on her silk wrap seemed have spared her face There was a luminous quality in it which seemed set it apart from any face he had even seen He looking at her so ontly that started when companion spoke It seems we are going to be caught in a bad storm Could you give us supper then put us up for the night if it proves too bad for us to go on I guess mother can took after you alright Joe assured them Such requests were not unusual The farm was isolated but If attracted motorists looking for supper or sleeping accommo dation where the neighboring farms only attracted one- Joe knew why and took a natural pride in the fact that the well painted house with the vines shading the piazza and its flow er beds visible from the road should vouch even to the casual passerby of the comfort lo he found within Mrs came at her sons call and took charge of the wo man while Joe showed the- man a shed in which he shelter his automobile- The rain came New- as left the build ing and they ran for the house Tint hardly were on the porch before the water descended In sheets you wont go on to night said Ft wouldnt he safe after such a rain as this Its likely to wash out regular gullies in the road to say nothing the chance of skidding No fancy we are fixed for the night the stranger replied A whiff of Mrs Butt in supper came through the open window and he seemed well satisfied with the prospect My name Is he went on feeling In pocket for a card Im connected with Ihe English partment at the University Mrs had hasty toilet and was sitting In living room of farmhouse when her husband and Joo en tered The- charm the boy hod fell in her fnce was- Intensified now that ho saw her in this fa miliar setting Her dark hair curled slightly and was ably gray Her face was rather thin and pale yet though I lack ed the charm of and coloring It Was a face that would have attracted Others as well as the young farmer was a wonderful vivacity about it a glowing lifo It seemed to Joe that it made a spot of light In the room Mrs supper had been ready when lie strangers arriv ed She opened another can of fruit put on a dish of another kind of pickles called them to the table Joe was proud of his mothers cooking and ap petites these chance gueats confirmed his feeling of compla cency Ho listened with a of satisfaction to the pounding of the rain upon the roof He could have found In his heart to wish for a premature equinox lal storm several davs in dura tion Your living room was some thing of surprise to mo Mrs Mrs said in her melodious voice My Hus band and I are very fond of these little trips and very often wo stop for the night some even when no storm Is threatening Hut I think saw so many books in farm house before Joe looked gratified Mrs I see that someone is musical too saiij Mrs She glanced at Joe and her expres sion of pleased approval warmed his heart I play a little but its Joe who is the musician saul Joes proud mother He plays the violin and mandolin and he sings very nice ly I can play the piano enough to pick out his accompaniments Are the other young men in the community interested in books and music asked Mrs this time of Joe di rectly Joe shook his head de cidedly Not a great deal I suppose most of them know there were such writers as Dickens and Scott but thats all they could tell you about them Joe fell complacent He knew he was a rather superior young farmer People had told him so and his own observation confirm ed this judgment His crops were as successful as any in the coun ty A large city produce com pany contracted with him for all his eggs and chickens He was making money but along with this he was interested in the and artistic life Joe basked mentally in the of approval he fancied ho saw in the beautiful ladys eyes He showed her his herbarium after supper delighted to find she shared his liking for botany And then as he reached the end of his collection she looked up at him This home ought to be of helpfulness she said thoughtfully You ought to be able to in teres I these other youp men in something more than the things you mention Dan shook bis head Oh it is no use The boys around here are a poor lot I dont mean theyre so bad you know but they dont care a snap things hat mean so much to me What have you done to awak en their interest Joe stared the vivid earnest face with a feeling of discom fiture did not occur to him answer anything but the exact truth Why I dont know that Ive done anything But you should you know Mrs answered earnest ly Your point of view is so A FORTUNATE Mary Whilten came to the house with a white drawn face If no use S Either there is no God or He is cruel or helpless el Jacks lost his money every that new mi in cent of it hi lliai corporation she sobbed and just when we were beginning enjoy life Its cruel thats ml there is to it Yes it is hard Mary I know how you were enjoying success But I wouldnt blame it on God But couldnt He have prevent edit if He wanted to she asked Yes I suppose He could have replied the minister But what sort of world would this be if God brought us out of our mistakes without making us feel the pen ally of them Should we ever learn anything Should we ever grow up No Mary there is all a great comfort i in a world where water drowns cold bite ami fire burns Theres nothing capricious in that sort world If a man invests his money unwisely be pays the ally no matter how wellmeaning he was about it if that werent so the world would be cruel am capricious Wo should never know how lo lake it Besides Mary Im not sure thai a blessing in disguise What do you mean she ask- incredulously I mean said old minis that I have noticed that yon and Jack have been getting worldly since he made his money You have lost Erin on spiritual things I was mud more worried about that than I am over the loss of your money Were not in the world to make money principally although Lord never said anything a rich man merely because he was rich We are here grow a soul If we can do both and good If cant wed bet- let the money go God isnt nearly as interested in having us rich as He is in having us saved You and Jack with your money gone remind me of a man in one my early parishes in California He and his family had been out a miserable existence for years prospecting and mining for gold At when were all on the verge of starvation a terrible calamity befell them a different that it puts a certain flood washed his responsibility upon you You should be a leader dont you see Rut Im only one and cant doanything you know Thats a big mistake One can win one and there are two to join forces and to win another is still easier Hut dont know how to be gin they would resent it Of course you would need to be tactful said Mrs Arent any of musical Couldnt yon organize them in a little orchestra or something of that kind Joe hesitated He remember ed that did play a flute after a fashion and Han Howard owned a bass violin and had a rudimentary idea how to useit The astonishing Mrs was broaching another idea Again her personal charm forced him to listen Youre so inter ested in books I almost believe youre the very one to help me in carrying out a scheme of mine A nephew of our lived with us a few years He was a delicate lad and we knew we couldnt keep him with us long but those few years arc such a lovely memory We have quite a number of Ralphs books fifty or sixty They are all boys books though not juvenile all There are stories and works in elementary science stories of inventions history all of them interesting If I should send you a box of them would you be willing lo act as keep them mov ing among the fellows here To be able to help Mrs Lock- wood was an honor li which ho could not be indifferent Bed time comes early in a farmhouse but that night sat up late talking over plans He picked out the halfdozen boys lo form his orchestra ami outlined a plan for distributing books before he went upstairs As he lay more wakeful than was usual after a hard days work and a long evening he realized that a big change had como into his life His satisfaction En his own superiority was over Now his business was to help others to measure up to his standards Ho gave the past the trlbilte of a little sigh and found himself eagerly facing the future which would domand the best of him And so became a leader away and wrecked it beyond repair But when in despair he returned to old site he found that on the very ground where the ramshackle house once stood the flood had uncovered a vein of gold that proved to he one of the richest mines in the country That I feel is what is going to happen you and Jack You were being overcome by what Christ called the deceit fulness of riches I believe you will yet look on this as a crowning mer cy Coil didnt send financial failure But if youll do a litllo prospecting on Hie spot where the event happened I know youll 11 nd a rich mine that your wealth was burying beyond discovery A noted humorous lecturer who was Invited to deliver
