They say he told Amos Curtis he was. though I don’t believe that. But any- way, Amos says he gave him $5 ‘jest fer usin’ his old boat that wa’n’t worth splittin’ up fer kindlin’s!’ " * When .Aunt Susan came in she fairly pounced upon her. “Why haven’t you told me, auntie, about all this gossip that’s going the rounds regarding Mr. Nason and myself? I know you have heard it.” 5 “It’s all nonsense. Alice.” answered lthat lady rather sharply. “and you are [foolish to listen to ’em. he heard it, Q of course, but so long as it’s no discred- i it to you. why. let it go into one ear and out t’other, same as I do!

Once in the silent house she began to cool off. “I won’t. believe he told Amos he was worth a million,” she said to herself. “He isn’t so stupid as that. But I am afraid the silly boy did give him $5, which has started all this gossip.” Alice colored. “He’s got Aunt S'usuu on his side as Well as Bert.” Alice thought, “and I am glad I kept him at a distance, 5113! to pay him for being so silly with his money.” Late that afternoon Alice called upon Abby Miles and talked about every- thing except the subject she most want- ed to talk about, and then as Abby usually had a Sunday evening caller, Alice came home at dusk.

It would be a delightful outing and one she would enjoy, but it would not be right to leave Aunt Susan alone for so long, and then, as her school did not close until the last of June, she would have no time to get ready. To cap the climax of Frank’s discom- fiturc, when July came his mother an- nounced that she had decided to go to the mountains for the summer. “It’s no use, Bert,” he said to hll friend one cvcning. “I Wanted your sister to go to Maine with us and moth- er and the girls and a few more to mum n nner. but it’s no go. I can’t er and the girls and a few more to make a party, but it's no go. I can’t induce your sister to join us, and it’s no use it she would, for mother has determined to go to the mountains, and that settles it. It you and I have any outing on the yacht we must make up '1 a gander party.” " ' "That suits me just as well as, and“ in fact better than, the other plan," re. plied Albert consolingly. “If we have a lot of ladies along we must dance at- tendance upon them, and if not we can fish, smoke, play cards, sing or go to ‘ sleep when we feel like it. I tell you, Frank,” he continued, evidently desir- ing to cheer up that young man, “girls are all right as companions at home or at balls and theaters, but on a yacht they are in the way.” A week afterward, and early one bright morning, the Gypsy, with of Boston and tha was am): my motto." rocx and taking the cushions along, he found a shady spot and sat down. The sloping rock he selected for s seat was a little damp. but he thought nothing of it, and lighting his pipe be- gan sketching. He worked for an hour putting the weed 'draped rocks and long swells that broke over them into his book, and then, lulled perhaps by the monot- onous rhythm of the ocean. lay back on the cushions and fell asleep. The next he knew he was awakened by 8 cold sensation and found the tide had risen until it wet his feet. Hastily getting up, he took the cushions and returned to where he had left the’hoat. only to find it had disappeared. The ‘ rising tide had lifted the boat and: painter from the rocks. and it was nowhere to be seen. ' “There must be some road back up on the island,” he thought, “that will lead me near the cove where the Gypsy is,” and, still retaining the cushions, he started to find it. But he was a stranger to Southport island, and the farther away from the sea he jgot the thicker grew the tangle of iserub spruce and briers. It was too : tick to see anywhere, and after a half hour of desperate scrambling the afternoon sun began to seem about due east. He had long since dropped the icushious, and finally, in sheer exhaus- { tion. he sat down on a rock to collect i himself. - , "It looks as though I'm billed to stay ' here all night,” he thought as he noted ‘the loweriu;..r sun. “and nolmtly knows thew much longer!

I lost my boat over back here on the shore and have had a cheerful time among the Mohawk , hriers. I belong to a yacht that is anchored in a cove of this island, I can’t tell where, and it you will take me to her I’ll pay you well.” The man in the wagon laughed. “Say, stranger,” he observed with a chuckle, “you ’mind me o’ the teller that got full an’ wandered round for a spell till he fetched up to a house an’ sed to the man that cum to the door, ‘If you will tell me who I am or whar I am or whar I want ter go I’ll . give ye a dollar.’ ” - ‘ ‘ "r -A l-!.â€". .VV d v vâ€" Page hailâ€"to laugh in spite of his plight, for the humorous twinkle in the old man’s eyes as he uttered his joke was infectious. “I’d like ter ’commodate ye.” he add- ed, “but as I’m carryin' Uncle Sam’s mail an’ must git home an’ tend the light, an’ as ye don't know whar ye want ter go, ye best jump in 1111’ go down to Saint’s Rest, whur I live, an’ in the mornin’ we'll try an’ hunt up yer boat.” - .II ,7 ‘_ .3- _-‘A J“ "vuv- It seemed the only thing to do, and Albert availed himself of the chance. “Can you tell the spot where you found me?” he said to the man as they started on. “I'd like to go back there tomorrow and find my cushions.” “Waal,” was the answer, “as I’ve druv over this road twice a day for high on to thirty year, I’m tolerable familiar with it. My name’s Terry, an’ I’m keeper 0’ the light at the Cape an’ carry the mail to sorter piece out on. Who might ye be?” “My name’s Page, and I’m from Bos- ‘ ‘ton, and a lawyer by profession.” re- l plied Albert. ' Uncle Terry eyed him rather sharply. “I wouldn’t ’a’ took ye fer one,” he said. “Ye look too honest. I ain’t much stuck on lawyers,” he added with a chuckle. “I’ve had ’sperence with ’em. One of ’em sold me a hole in the 'ground onct, an’ it cost me the hull o’ twenty years’ savin’s!

On either hand was an in- terminable thicket. In the little val- leys grew masses of rank ferns 'and on the ridges, interspersed between the wild roses, clusters of red bunch- 'herries. The sun was almost down when they reached the top of a long hill and he saw at its toot a small har- bor connected with the ocean by a nar- row inlet and around it a dozen or more brown houses. Beyond was a tangle of rocks and, rising above them, â€"' 'v' Terry, who had kept up a running tire of questions all the time, halted the horse and said: “Ye can now take yer first 100! u.

Albert walked on to the highest of the shore rocks and looked about! There was no sign of the Gypsy, and only one boat was visible, and that a dory rowed by a man standing upright. Over the still waters Albert could de- tect the measured stroke of his oars. ‘ That and the low rumble of the ground swells, breaking almost at his feet, were the only sounds. It was like a dream of solitude, far removed from the world and all its distractions. For a few moments he stood contemplating the ocean alight with the setting sun’s red glow, the gray rocks at his feet and the tall white lighthouse towering i above him, and then started around the point. He had not taken ten steps when he saw the figure of a girl lean- A..- "uvâ€" -v â€"â€" ing against a rock and watching the setting sun. One elbow was resting on the rock, her face reposing in her open hand and fingers halt hid in the thick masses of hair that shone in the sun- light like burnished gold.

H “â€" ..L-.... kni- again». w... ....... _ _ She had not heard Albert’s steps, but stood there unconscious of his scrutiny. He noted the classic contour of her tea- tures, the delicate oval or her lips and chin, and his artist eye dwelt upon and admired her rounded bosom and per- fect shoulders. Had she posed for a picture she could not have chosen abet- ter position, and was so alluring and withal so sweet and unconscious that‘ for a moment he forgot all else, even his own rudeness in standing there and staring at her. Then he recovered him- self and, turning. softly retraced his steps so as not to disturb her. Who‘ she was he had no idea and was still wondering when he met Uncle Terry, who at once invited him into the house. “This ’ere’s Mr. Page, Lissy," he said ly and gray haired woman. “I found him up the road a spell a” wantin’ to know whar he was.” Albert bowed. “I am sorry to intrude," he said, “but I had lost my boat and all points of the compass when your husband kindly took me in charge.” A 11.--; an; lUU Ll Being offered a chair, Albert sat 3 down and was left alone. He surveyed the plainly furnished sitting room, with open fireplace, a many colored rag car- pet on the floor, old fashioned chairs and dozens of pictures on the walls. They caught his eye at once, mainly because of the oddity of the frames, which were evidently homemade, and then a door was opened, and Uncle Ter- ry invited him into a lighted room where a table was- set. The elderly mm, was standing at one end of it and ry invited him into a lighted 1'qu where a table was set. The elderly lady was standing at one end of it and beside her a younger one, and as Al- bert entered he heard Uncle Terry say, “This is our gal Telly, Mr. Page," and as he bowed he saw, garbed in spotless white, the girl he had seen leaning against the rock and watching the sun- set.
