By CECILY ALLEN. Copyright, 1907, by E. C. Parcells. “Wint, if you don’t sit down and be quiet you’ll be overboard in a minute. I’ve warned you two or three times now, and Tm through.” “Talk about being quiet,'' said Wint. ‘‘You have clacked Incessantly, like a Bitting hen, ever since I threw my first line. No wonder we don’t get a bite.*’ Wint Miller turned around to look at his friend Jack Barnes, lighting his pipe meanwhile. • , . ‘•All right, you clumsy old thing. I know what I’m talking about,” grinned Jack. “You move about in this little rowboat as if it was ah pbeaa going steamer. Look to your line there!”^ Wint turned suddenly at the mention of the long awaited bite. Clumsy he might be. but Jack loved his chum just because he was clumsy and always needed his help. The turn was fatal. Wint lost his balance, his foot slipped on the wet bottom of the boat, and backward he went for a cold and un expected dip. E'’ortuiiately the water was only five feet deep, and Wint’s head appeared above the water in a second, pipe in mouth and the fire still going. “Curses on you, .lack Barnes! You did that purposely, jind yon'll pay for this,” growled Wint as ho tried to climb aboard. Jack's • convulsions of laughter did not help matters much, aud when he did stop for a moment it was only to heap coals of tire upon Wint’s wet head. “My fault! Well, I like that, you old landlubber. I told yon to keep quiet, but yon knew it all. Now our day’s fishing is spoiled, and I can stay home and niirse you. Climb aboard and let’s get home before you develop the nieasies or wJLiooping cough.” It was a very sullen pair tlint un locked the door of their fishing hut an hour later. Wint v/as shivering, and Jack was niutteriug iindtM* his breath. They hunted in vain for dry clolbo^, as , they had come down only for a day or j two to rough it. Jack turned to his | friend with a he!])less expression. “Wint. there’s only one thing to do. We’ll have to pack up and go over to Un Me Will’s and see if they vrill take you in. You’re sneezing your head olT now. and by morning you’ll probably have a fine case of pneumonia. 1 hate to do it, for Aunt Fanny doesn’t ap prove of me or my friends either for that matter,” added Jack. Aj-^ain the i)air started off and walk ed through the woods to a pretty little cottage set in among the pines. Aunt Fanny Beal met them at the porch. She was a woman who held her head high at all times, but just now it' seemed to be .straighter than ever. ' “So it’s you, is itV” she said as Jack extended his hand. “Who is this per son with you?” she added as she ; glanced at the figure of Wint, covered j with red mud and hatless. ' “Oh. 1 say. Aunt Fanny, be easy. We've had an accident. This is my best fri4‘nd. .Mr. Winthrop Miller. He fell overboard, and v.’e've come over to see if you v.’on’t take us in for the ni’^’it until his clothes ret dvy. Where’s Uncle Will? He’ll under stand.” “Your uncle is in town, and Belle and 1 are alone. Blood is blood, and you cannot deny your own. I’ll take you in for your mother’s sake,” v;!iined Auiit Fanny as she oi>ened tlie door in anythin;' l)Ut a welcome manner. “Xever mind about me. Aunt Fan ny.” cheerily answered Jack as he saw the door crpen for them. "But Wint must get dry. He’s caught a dreadful cold. 1 fear.” “He doesn’t look exactly frail,” sug gested Mrs. Beal as she glanced at AViiit’s somewhat ample proportioniiv “However, come in and go up to your uncle's room. 1 suppose yon will leave this evening. You know we have no spare room,” she added lest they should avail themselves of a night's lodging. Wl’.it did not leave that evening nor for many, many evenings thereafter. At o’clock that afternoon the doctor was sent for. He looked at the tliish- ed cheeks and the parched tongue. He listened to the wheezing breath as it came so hard and shook his head. “We must have a nurse at once. Mrs. Beal. The man is very sick. He must have care or ho will die. I will send a nurse and will call again later. Good afternoon,” and the doctor was gone. For weeks Wint hovered between I life and the great beyond. No one en tered the room but the nurse, the doc tor' and Isabelle Beal. Jack’s cousin. She relieved the nurse, and sometimes even the doctor would cail her in to the day came when the nurse wa^ no longer needed. Isabelle could manage with Jack’s help at night. ‘ “I say, nurse.” said Wint one day as Isabelle sat reading to hiin, “I’m glad Jhat other nurse beat it I like yoi^ better.” - “But you know I’m.* not really a nurse at al*. Mr. Miller,’^*' said Isabelle as she blushed at, the inferred compli ment. “I’m Jack’s cousin—Atinf F^an- ny’s daughter, you understand. But I love Jack, and t’ll do' anything for his friends.” and she began to* read again. “Don’t let’s read any mOre,” said Wint. “Just let’s talk. 1 don’t care whether you’re a really truly nurse or not. I—I like you, ’cause you’re you, and maybe when your mother sees me dressed like a white man she won’t think I’m such a terror. I certainly did look like a day laborer out of a job the afternoon I landed on the front porch.” “1 know,” said Isabelle as slio laugh ed heartily and laid down the book. “It must have bee^^^^o funny. Moth er’s < terribly propeK you know.” Days went oh jijlxe this, and Mrs. Beal , was gnadually^ won we^ the enemy's camp. Every due who knew Wint' Miller lov^d hi^—loved him de spite his careless, hapless .^ays, for his kindly spirit and other things, but mostly because he was he. In the daj’s that followed he had many nurses, as all the family took turns wheeling him across the room so that he might bask in the sunlight, but his happiest hours were when Isabelle was in charge. One afternoon as she patted the pil lows at the back of his chair and left a glass of milk at his elbow he caught the hand that had brought so many comforts to him during his Ulness. “Won’t you stay a -little longer. Miss Nightingale?” he pleaded as he held tightly to the hand. “I’m so lonely in the twilight. Wait until Jack comers. He’s due in a few’’minutes now if the train isn’t late—pl^i's6.” “Y"ou old silly.” said Isabelle as she sat on the window ledge with the shadows encircliag her. “I wish you knew more about me,” said Wint. “I wish you would ask some of the fellows if I’m not a decent sort. You see, I’ve something to say to you, but I can’t until you know mo better. It would be like taking an un fair advantage.” “Oh, but I know all about you al ready,” she said gayly. “Jack and 1 talk about you all the time.” He reached out and pulled her a lit tle closer. “I’m a cj^nmsy old thing, as Jack al ways says, but there’s nothing very bad about me. an^ I don’t play this sick trick very often. You wouldn’t care for a life job of nursing, would you?” He was holding the hand very tightlj^ now as she looked up at him and said coyly: “Ask me, why don’t you?” His arms were not very strong as yet, but both of them went around tlie girl ;is he drew her to his lips. “Sweetheart,” he whispered. “Well, I’ll be hanged, Wint Miller, none of that,” ^ang out Jack as he stood in the doorway, grip io hand, as he had hurried from the train. “1 brought vou down here to fish, not to steal all the preserves on the family plantation.” < “Yes, Jack.” said ^’int as he reached out one free hand. “You brought mo down to fish, and I’m the champion, for here in my arms is the catch of the season, the best ever.” WOMAN /AND CHILD MADE 1» 5T.LOU£^ 3BV* 'Star Brand Shoes Are Better** The Entire Grandfather and Grandmother, Father and Mother, Sister and Brother, find their shoes at our store in the “Our Family” line.
