"I raise here to play I am a dryad,"
Klspeth said, smiling wickedly at Hln
dou as he tolled after her up the steep
and narrow steps that ted to a ratted
platform, weather beateu, but stilt
Sound and weight worthy, set In the
lower branches of a (taut oak. Hin
doo thought the ellmbtug a craay per
formance, but love which inakee the
fool often a wise man make* tbe wise
man oftw a tad. i&Ad be did not
deny to himself he was In love sud
with the bit of quicksilver he was ao
painfully following.
"H-ml I seem to remember that dry
ads were not always all tbey should
be," he said, sitting dowu so ponder
ously the brancbea quivered. Klspeth
Isughed softly. "You are to have a re
ward for coming' up with me. I adore
stories. Tou may tell me one luatead
of writing it—the very best story of
them all."
"Impossible!" lUndon said gravely.
"Don't you know there are but seveu
stories In the world, and six of them
unlit for ladlesT That leaves only one.
I bad much rather live It than tell It"
"No! You must tell It" Klspeth said
decisively, "Begin 1 Thla la much bet
tor fun than private theatricals"—
"I tell you I can't begin. The story
baa to begin Itself," Hindoo Interrupt
ed. Again Klspeth laughed. "At least
you ran ssy how It begins," she mur
mured. Hlndou smothered a growl.
"I can tell you what It takes to uiske
a sory," be aald. "First of course,
there's a girl"—
"That's me," Klspeth Interjected.
Hlndou nodded. "And a man lu love
with her"—
"That fits you," Kl«peth said Incor
rigibly. Hludon flushed In aplte of
himself snd bit his Up, but soiuebow
.kept his yolce gay as be ran on: "Aud
aa obstacle- any sort, some sort. The
obstacle, you know, Is what really
makes the story."
"Desr me! What a pity!" Klspeth
said. "Yet I quite understand. But for
the obstacle the sweethearts would
have to marry right at tbe start and
Dve happy ever after. 1 think -yes,
I'm sure the obstacle Is loomlug up.
Seel Jack Delauy la gettlug dowu at
the stop*."'
"A plague ou him, ou all Delauys
everywhere," Hludoii began. 'Klspeth
shook ber bead at blm, saying: "How
ungrateful. You said there had to be
au obstacle. Could you ask a more
proper oug than Jack?"
"No! That's Just tbe trouble," Hin
doo admitted. "You uilgtit easily full
In love wlUi Jack—lf I were not lu his
way."
"I believe he hat cast you for the
obstacle role," Klspeth said demurely,
yet with dancing eyes. "You don't
play fair- not in tbe least," she went
on. "I asked you for a story and
here I'm making up oue for you"—
\ "You've reduced It to Its lowest
topna -anyway I don't like It" Uludon
broke In, bis cblu In tbe air, the Ught
of battle In bis eye. He'saw Jack
Delany sauntering toward tlie ouk, hi*
bat In one band, the other swinging his
Ivory mounted crop. Jsck was a youth
of parts rich, well bred and disgust
ingly good to look at. Moreover, he
waa new. Until a month back Klspeth
bad never seen blm. Illndon bad dis
covered the real Kls|>etb at about the
same dlatance of time-When be had
'come down to World's Knd for silence
and a measure of solitude. After years
of struggle his latest book had hit the
public hard. He wanted its .Muccessor
to go a bore aud beyond It. Then, Just
when the opening of It was fairly In
mind, be had dined at the dean house
and fallen under Elspetb's spell.
There bad been a week of rultelllon,
then submission to tbe Inevitable. He
had had a conceit of knowing women
kind, also the verb to love. In sll its
moods and tenses. Klspeth hud shown
htm how greatly he was mistaken.
Hindoo had a way with him that most
women had found Irresistible. After a
surfeit of aweeta one relishes a whole
some bitter. Klspeth's artleas Joy over
hla subjugation had not misled blm
Into thinking she was to be had for the
asking. He had two minds about ber—
one curiously aloof, wholly detscbed,
ever noting tbe effect of unlikely con
quest upon a nature girlishly vain and
bnman and marshaling its Impressions
as for future reference; another, pal
pi tantly masculine and possessive,
alert to win and keep ber against all
coiner*.
Now the virile Impulse dominated
htm. As Jack came within ball Hln
dou swung himself to the head of tbe
step*, clutched a hand upon the rails
at either side and half shouted: "Jack,
I'm a life saver. You can't come up!"
"Can't—sb! Why notr Jack de
manded, moving forward.
"Oh, because you're quite too good
looking and much too vain—so vain
this cranky structure would never bear
tbe weight of it" Hindoo flupg backet
blm, settling himself more (Irmly in
hla aeat.
Jack laughed heartily. "I'm com
lngt Look out!" he admonished, mak-
Ing a dash for the stair foot. Aa ba
toocbed it Hindoo looked down, with
twinkling eyee, to say: "Remembei
Thermopylae! Behold roe, a new lao
utdaa, holding the pass!"
' "Hang Thermopylae snd all thoee
other slasy games," Jack said, wits
frank' scorn. "I tell yon, there's no
erring a fellow thafs been throogt
straight football"—
"So i perceive" Hindoo said, hb
twinkle broadening. He turned h*U
about Ur glance at Klspeth. She wai
sitting very straight her band clinched
bard on the book in bar lap, the gboal
of a dimple llckitrlng In oue cheek.
The estate la Ma wherein Juat now aha
found herself was clearly not dlaplaaa
ing to bar. Cautiously abo peeped over
the edge of tbe platform and aald to
Jack, batting below It: wlab you
would coma up, Mr. Delany. We- we
are inaktaff *9 a atory. Mr. Utudon la
going to write It and you can't Imag
ine bow faactnatlng It la.','
"If I can't bnaglna It I cuu Dud oat"
Jack aald energetically. stepping back
Ave pacea to aurvey the big oak'a
spread of branches. The braucbea
wen- tirAad, -*« d Mm* of tbeu>*>eudu- I
loos. Dpon tbe farther aide outrsway-
Ing tip came within six feet of the
ground. With a short, running leap
Jack caught the tip, felt It allp almoat
away from him, but managed to keep
hold, draw K down and clutch It hand
over hand until lie come to a place that
was stout Enough to swlug upou. Back
and forth, bar If aud forth, he clung and
swung, until at last bo caught foot
hold In toward the trunk. Inalde three
minutes be was sitting upon a branch
level with tbej>latform, aud but a lit
tle way from It saying, aa he lighted
a cigarette) "Is tbls a detective story?
Tou can put me to It as a porch climber
or something."
"Toa're In It already," Klspeth said,
smiling with \joft malice. Hindoo sat
blocking the way down, divided be
tween laughing aud glowering. "Yea—
you're lu It, all right uupugh," he said,
nodding toward Delany. "Trouble la
to work up a climax that shall leave
you out of It altogether."
"I won't be left out—of the atory—
nor anything," Jack cried, laugfelng
gnvly, rising and balancing himself as
ho siHtke. It was a perilous undertak
ing there ou the swaying bough, but
he accomplished It stood stockatlll
with folded arms for a breadth's
apace, theu leaped lightly to the plat
form, landing fairly In the middle of
It. It was almost twenty feet lu air,
well stayed betwixt two giant boughs.
But the tree In Its youth had been
topped, so down where the boughs
parted, unueeu, unnuapected, there waa
a blotch, rotted nnd cankerous, weak
ening fatally tbe Hound outer wood.
Therefore under tbe Impact of Dela
ny'a leap one bough broke looee
at the trunk and cruabed down, carry
lug with It tbe railed tloor and those
rcatlug upon It.
As by • miracle Klspeth was flung
far out afuld cushiony, well leafed
branclilets aud got up with no worse
hurt than the shock. Iltndon, white
and breathless, also scrambled to his
feet, but with an artu dangling limply
beside h!iu. Delauy lay motloulees,
seuseless. He bad struck bis head In
falling, cutting un ugly gash.
El*|ietb dropped down beside him
and laid her cheek ugnlust his, crying
softly: "Jack! Jack! You won't go
and leave me, Jack! This Is Klspeth!
You love lue! You will live for me!
Darling, open your eyes! Ood can't be
so cruel as to take you just us I know
bow I love you."
There was a flutter of the heavy eye
lids. ITlndon, white and remorseful,
touched Klapeth's shoulder. "He la
only stunned," ho said. "But, of
course, you will never forgive me"—
"There Is nothlug to forgive," Kl
speth said, looking up at him with wet
eyee. "Indeed, I owe you much. It
was all lu fun, and but fof ifgt mtg'it
not have found out In time, about the
obstacles."

"Jabea Strong, I'm not going to stand
this thing another day!"
"Shoo, ma, how you tulk!"
"And you've got to help me."
The cows bad been milked, tlie hogs
fed, nnd Jabea Strung, farmer, bad
taken bis seat beside bis wife on the
veranda. He didn't usk what It was
she would r >t rl md, for tbe matter
had been tbo uubjtct of numerous con
versation i before. He bad always as
sumed a n 'Utrat position and argued
that thii:it would come out all right
If left alone, but now be realised that
a crisis had arrived.
"If she bud a mother It would be
different," continued tbe good wife us
she funned away tbe mosquitoes with
a folded paper, "but she hasn't oue.
She's only got a father, and lie's tbe
biggest old poke In six counties. Jest
tbe last thing Melvlua \yilllauis said to
me on ber dying bed was to be a moth
er to Kmeiine, aud uow I'm going to
be or know the reason why. I'm going
to call hej; over here tomorrow for a
talk, aud I'm going to liuve u talk with
Kebedtub. It hain't right, and you
can't niuke It right."
"It alius inukes things WtMafeßlnlx
In," answered ber busbund after a
minute.
"It wight If Emollne Intel a mother,
but she hulu't gut. I've lot It go on
uml ou, thinking inebbe I hadn't better
nay nothing, but I shan't let It go an
other day. I may want you to" help
mo. If 1 do, you've got to pitch right
In."
Across tho highway from Farmer
Ht rung's wan the farmhouse of Farmer
WlllluniH. The two fuuilllos had been
neighbors for fifteen yearn. Farmer
Williams was a good uiau, but It wan
alHo true that he was a "poke." That
In, he worked from morning till ulght,
and then after reading his county pa
per for half an hour he wound up the
clock nnd went to bed. When bin wife
had dfed, xho left a daughter ICmeline,
eighteen yearn old. That was two
yearn before the openlng.of this story.
Just about that time Zebedluh Hender
son had been taken ou an a hired man.
Zeb was twenty-three years old and
well thought of, but he was slow and
conservative by nature.
Borne hired men would have fallen
In lovo with Emeline Inside of a week,
for she was a bright, attractive coun
try maiden, but Zeb waited three
months. It came to be a case of love
on both sides, and three months later
he proposed and was accepted. It
•topped short at that, so far as Zeb
was concerned. He meant to, marry
lorne day, blit that day was Indefinite.
Farmer Williams cauie to know of the
•ngagement, but he had no opinion to
express. He went on with his plowing
and eating boiled dinners and left mat
ters to fate.
It was this state of affairs that had
provoked the Indignation of Mrs.
Btroug. Bhe didn't think It right ou
the part of Zebedlah to keep Emeline
"on the books," as she expressed It.
While all other young men were driv
en away by knowledge of the engage
ment, Zebedlah continued to "poke
around" as If he had fifty years to get
married In. On one or two occasions,
when he had come over to borrow a
hoe or alt on the veranda and discuss
crop* with her husband, she had spok
en her mind pretty plainly. Bhe bad
hinted that she knew of farmers' sons
who were looking about for wives aud
that there were more windmill and
wire fence men coming along than
•he could shake a stick at,,but Zebe
dlah *u unmoved. She had made
Binellue own up to the engagement,
•nd she had advised her not to make a
long engagement of It, but when the
girl blushingly asked her what she
rjould do Mrs. Btrong had no plan at
hand and didn't.know where she was
to get one.
Fortune favors the conspirator a*
well as the brave. Two, or three days
after her taTK With her husband on the
▼eranda Mr*. Strong's brother came on
a vlalt from UJlnoti. He was a Jovial.
I—UIM IWM T "■ U ft* hadn't had
a* 1 WsTl(i%fr tiMck* Dome tie' would
have fallen lu love with timeline YVjUI
Hams. It was while he was praising
her that Mm. Strong got her plan. It
was as simple aa sliding down a cellar
door. She crowed and giggled over It
for half an hour and was atlll crowing
and giggling when the girl from across
the road came over to borrow a draw
ing of tea. Mrs. Strong brought out
the tea and then motioned her pretty
neighbor to take a chair and began:
"Biuellne —Williams, you have no
mother."
"Nor
"Your mother asked me to be a
mother to you after she was gone."
"I know It, and you've been awfui
good to me."
"Buiellne, It's a dreadful thing for
a girl to he In love and have no moth
er and an old poke of a father, and I
can't atand It any longer. I'vo got to
be your mother and advise with you."
