PAGE SIX_ ■■■'■ 1 f ■■■ FIRST INSTALMENT | Prologue t Ellen Church was posing for her - mother. Posing—a slim, wistful t figure—against the dying glory of \ the autumn garden. Her slender, t seventeen-year-old arms were out- 1 flung to the gold and crimson of i the falling leaves. ;1 Her mother said suddenly— js "Get a little more limper, Ellen., You’re tightening up. Remember 1 that you’re the spirit of youth, < just now, and loveliness, and new; dreams. Remember that you’re a i magazine cover! Remember that < you’re our bread and butter for-t next month. And perhaps,” herd mother sighed, "for the month |1 after and the month after that!” H Ellen flexed her stiffening fingers 1 and dragged her eyes away from - the land into which they had been ' peering. Ellen obediently let her-1 rol-l- trzx limn ir»cirl^» ic wpll K rillf—IS side. She wasn’t self-conscious about it, not Ellen. All of her life, j vou see, she had been posing for1' her mother. As a new baby, round:' and rosy and naked, in the spring!' sunshine. As a wee tot, in rompers,1' making mud pies that would be;l transplanted to canvas. As a child ' of seven, reading from a green and!1 silver story book. As an older j' child, sewing a long, tiresome seam.!' Oh Ellen was used to pqsing—it ' was her life! j She answered, now, in kind.;I Answered with a question. j1 "And jam?” asked Ellen, idly. !' Ellen’s mother squinted at her,:' over the smudged top of the can- j vas. And, squinting, brushed the!' fluff of white hair away from her11 brew. As far back as Ellen could j' remember, her mother’s hair had/ been w hire. "But certainly jam'” answered t _i_ a_"j_, i -.. . „ Midden brightness that made Ellen’s 1 breath catch in her throat; that: made her speak swiftly, despite the ! catching breath. It was almost as |^ if the smile needed an answer. ' "Oh, Mother,” she said, and the < words came from the depths of a worshipful young heart, .'I love you! I love you very much. Very much, indeed!” "You mustn’t, Ellen,” said the mother, "love me so much, I mean. Love—don’t ever be intense about it, child! Love, if you must love at all, lightly! Giving nothing. Tak ing all that’s offered but—expect ing nothing. . . .” Ellen’s young eyes were search ing, keen. No longer were they lost in a far place of dreams. it s wnat you always say aDour love,’’ she told her mother. "It’s what you always say! When I was a child,” (Ah, the quaint sophisti cation of seventeen!) "it didn’t seem to mean anything. But now that I’m grown up, it’s straange you should talk so. Because you don’t love that way yourself. Lightly, I mean.’’ With a small gesture of finality, the woman at the easel was wiping a brush on dingy cotton doth— -a cloth that held vivid reminders of ; many another brush. Her gesture ; meant that posing for this day was i over. Ellen knew that her own < persistence had made the work step ; so abruptly, and she was sorry. For , winter was near. Beside the bread 1 and butter, there was a departmental i -in t-<11 1 , sluic uni: was iuiiy-hiju ; yet she was so weary of evasions, '< of being put off! I1 "Not me, Mother!” she insisted. L "But, of course, I love you I lightly,” she said, with an aching 1 sort of forced gayety "You ought i to know that! If I loved you any other way, I’d spoil you. And evenj] you, Ellen, must admit that I don’t spoil you. Do I ever give you new ; hats for Easter? Or seed pearls, for Christmas? Have I ever, even once, ’ taken you to the city? Have you ] ever seen a skyscraper, or a hotel—•; or even a tea shop? Have you—” i "How about the time a year ago, : when I had typhoid—and the doc- : tor said I mightn’t live?’’ Ellen’s mother was looking up swiftly, through tears. Her voice quivered very much. All of the laughter had been drained from it. "But, my darling,” she said, "ofl course, I don’t love you lightly! I love you so much, whether you’re desperately ill or annoyingly well, that it hurts! I didn’t want to love you to—whv^ (there were times when I didn’t even want you! For I knew that you’d get me, that I’d never be free, or myself, as long as I cared for someone. Your father i taught me that. I loved him, too, i so much that it hurt—so much that it still hurts!” < MGST£k LJW* i ! Rapidly she was gathering up the' wisted tubes of paint, the canvas! —all of the paraphernalia of her rade. "I wish,” said Ellen, "that you’d ell me about father. After all, he •elonged to me, sort of, too; al hough I never saw him. I can’t lelp wondering why you always ay such queer things about him.’ Great tears had begun to well in ler mother’s eyes, to roll down her heeks. "I always knew,” said her nother, that it would have to ome, some time. You can’t keep verything shut away, no matter low hard you try! But I couldn’t lope to shield you from everything orever — some day something could come up! Perhaps it’s better, fter all, that you should hear my tory from me.” Ellen had crept close. She didn’t peak, but her mind, following her nothcr’s voice, made pictures. . . . Pictures drawn from her lonely hildhood, from the years whicn he had lived with her mother in he brown house that lay back of he garden—years that had been iroken only by business letters and nrp vi^ifc nf rht1 irr nwnf. eho sold her mother’s work in the ity. Their very clothes had been hosen, wholly, from department tore catalogues! Once a week, always, Ellen and icr mother had walked the two niles to the village and ordered heir supplies. And Ellen stared at he village girls—and was stared at ay the village boy^—while her, nother exchanged conversation; eith the storekeeper about her gar len and the weather. A certain ged laborer came up to the brown: icuse when there was hard work to^ ie done. He reported, back i.a the; illage, that he thought the artist ady was queer. Perhaps, in a way, he had reason o think so. Certainly Ellen and ler mother were hermits, defying :ustom and convention- learning heir own lessons of life from trees! ip, found her mother’s hand, ivas going to art school, studyin :o be a portrait painter, when met your father. After that m alans were all different! I met hir it one of the student dances ( don’t know yet how he happene Co be there,) and we were both i costume. He was a cavalier and wore a hoop-skirted dress and had a tiny wreath of moss rose buds in my hair. . . . We—w weren’t even introduced. He ju: came up,” the mother’s eyes had listening look, "and took me in h arms, and sve danced away. It w: a waltz, the Blue Danube. At tl end of the waltz he—kissed m At the end of a week we wei married.” A leaf fluttered down from or of the autumn trees. Her moth< went on. "At first,’’ he said, "we wei ever so happy, your father and Although I had to give up m painting (your father didn’t a[ prove or women having careers I was far too much in love t argue the matter. We lived in little apartment, and your fathi went every day to his office, didn’t know what he did in th; office—he resented my question somehow. But I did know that h income seemed to grow more an more inadequate—and that, at tl same time, he i'jiemed to giro' more and more restless. I tried < hard,” the steady voice broke, ; last, "to hold his interest! But suppose I was different than 1 ha been in a pink gown, waltzins Men, Ellen, like glamor. . . . Its a long story. 1 won t te it to you, all. Only, after ten yea of scrimping and econonaizin your father suddenly bought th place and brought me here to liv He didn’t ever stay here, ver much, himself. ... It seemed a most logical to me that 1 shouldn’t, for 1 could understar that his business would make stai ing in the city necessary! I love him so greatly,” Ellen’s mother w fighting for self-control, "that naturally trusted him. But I w very lonely—so lonely that I ai tuallv had to do something. T1 place is isolated now, it was f more isolated when I first can here to live. I had no neighbors and you can’t imagine how I needc some sort of companionship! Ar so I turned to gardening, and oi of the gardening grew my desire i be an artist, once more. . . . "I made my pictures, at firs "Men, Ellen, like glamor,” warned Mrs. Church nd flowers. But Ellen, even with lack of preaching, knew about an mpagan God. Didn’t God make, aid her mother, the only depend ble thing in the world, Beauty? ^nd Ellen knew of the Christ who lad played—perhaps, also, a soli ary child—on the shores of a blue ea, and who had prayed in a gar len (was it like their garden, she vondered?) and who had died on a :ross. "Think of Him,” her mother lad once said, "whenever you feel hat you want to see, to love, leople. He, Ellen, was love. He oved all of the people of the world. \nd people, Ellen, nailed His hands ind His feet to a wooden cross!” These were the pictures that illen saw as she crouched beside ler mother, in the fading . garden "I’ve had my fill of cities,” her nother was saying "That’s why 1 lever left this place, not since yoiu ather brought me here more than :wenty years ago. . . . That’s why ’ve kept you here, too. Don’t think was unconscious of what you were missing—I knew! But when told myself that you needed Hoarding schools and beaux and un and gayety, I told myself also :hat you didn’t know you were Heeding them. ... I told myself hat I’d rather have you sitting on \ window-sill, separted from the world by bars, than a part of the ;rowd outside of the window! As ong as you sat on the sill, I told nyself, you couldn’t be jostled toe nuch. Jostling hurts. . . . "I was once entirely a product if the city.” Ellen’s hand, creeping Ellen, with a rake and a hoe an a packet of seeds. 1 built the gloi of blossoming things all arour this house in which we live. Ar at, last, when my garden was flou ishing, I got out an old color bo and dusted it, and began to mal sketches. I hadn’t a thought of di ing anything commercial—that : : came after your father’s goin I when 1 found that I must eai lour livelihood. At the beginning I just made pictures for companioi j ship. They were pretty, too—bi they had an emptiness about ther I guess that’s why God sent yc to me, child. He knew I needi something alive and cuddly make my garden perfect! j "Oh, Ellen,” the fingers that tl girl held were returing her pre Iciifp fiprrplir "TM „n -.a i j 7 o r -— of having a baby, ages before yc jcame to me! I’d had ten lone .1 years in the city, and five loneli years out here, before I knew th you were coming. I couldn’t b lieve it, at first. It was just t< I utterly lovely. And the knowled; held something else beside loveline i—it brought a new hope to me. couldn’t help feeling that it wou make a difference in the relatioi ship between your father and nr |self; a baby couldn’t help but brir a sense or responsibility into \ life. He always liked new thin, . . . and there is notfiing so new a little baby. . . . CONTINUED NEXT WEEK THE WATCHMAN. Say, "I Saw It in n X X 1JL.

Texas Lady Tells How Black-Draught Laxative Helps All Her Family Here’s how Black-Draught fills the needs of a family laxative in the home of Mrs. J. S. Stoker, Fort Worth, Texas: “The grown-ups in my family,” she writes, “have always taken powdered Thedford’s Black-Draught for biliousness, headaches and other ailments (due to constipation) and found it a re liable remedy. I was very pleased when I saw Syrup of Black Draught advertised. I bought it and gave it to my little daughters, ages 6 and 4.
