*GRAU1 GEORGE BAR "'C (t" 1o1 by Herbert S. so ever heard sudh ~a. thing iittered before. In a daze, stunned by the name Guggenslocker-myaktlled over their acquaintance with his own when he -had been foiled -at-every fair attempt to learn theirs, Lorry could only mum ble his- acknowledgments. In all his life he had neyer (ost command of him self as at this moment. Guggenslocker! /-4 "Yon lucky doy!" He could feel the dank sweat of disap pointment starting on his brow. A butcher-a beer maker-a cobbler-a gardener-all synonyms of Guggen clocker. A sausage manufacturer's niece-- iss Guggenslocker! Ile tried to glance unconcernedly at her as he took up his napkin, but his eyes wav ered helplessly. She was looking se renely at him, yet he fancied he saw a shadow of mockery in her blue eyes. 'If you were a novel writer, Mr. Lor ry, what manner of heroine would you choose?" she asked, with a smile so tantalizing that he understood in stinctively why she was reviving a topic once abandonod. His confusion was inereased. Her uncle and aunt were regarding him calmnly-expectant ly, he imagined. "I-i have no ambition to be a novel Writer," he said, "so t have not mando a study of haroina4." "TBut you would have an ideal," she persisted. "Tmn sure 1-I don't-that is, she would p ot uncassartly be a heroine. Uni less, of coursn, It would roquir-e hero tonm to pose as an ideal for auch a prosaic fellow na [." "To begin with, you would call her ClaraUel Montrose or something equal ly as mpossible. You know the mnm of a tieroine in a novel must he eu phonious. That,is ain exactinig ru.e." It .was an open taunt, and he could see that s'he was entjoying his disacomture. It arousetthis indignution and his wvits. "I would first give nmy hero a diatin guishmed name. No matter- whant the hieroine's namie might t>e, lpret iy or oth erwvise, I conld easily change it to lisA in the last chalte'r." Shle 1lushied hn. neath huis nowv bright, koo'n eyes5 andl the r-eady thbough un expec'ted roato;'t Uncle Caispar- placed his nal)kin to huis lips and coughed. Aunt Yvonne studi.l ousIly Inspected her bill of' fare. "Nc mantier what you nall a rose it is al ways sweet,' he added fsmaingliy. At iuis she laughed good naturedly. He marveled at ber whle toothi and red lips. A rose, after all. tiuggon siocker, rose; r-ose, not. Origgonsioeker No, nto! A roso onlti Ie funeled be' cau -ht a sly look of tiumphm in her un e's~ swift glance toward her. But Uncle Caspar wvas not a rose. Ilo na Guggensal oer. Guggenmsiocker--bu tch er! 'Stili he did not look the part; no, indeed. That extmrordina'y manm a butcher, a gar'donor, a-end Annmt Yvonne? Yet they wore Guggonusiook era. "lIIgre is the walter," the girl oh served to his rolif. "1 am famiushted after my pleasant drive.

The~ orders for the dinner were givenm, and the q-uartet sat back in their chairs to awvait the coming of the soup. Gren fall was still wondering howv she had learuged his name, and was on thne point of asktng sever-al times during the conventtonal discussion of the weather, the train and the mountains. He considerately rerfreined, however, unwilig to embarras her. "Aunt Yvonne tells me she never ex pected to see me alive after the station agent telegraphed that we were comn ing overland In that awful old carriage. The agent at P- says it is a dlanger ous road, at the very edge of the moun tain. He also increased the composure of my uncle and aunt by telling them that a wagon rolled off yesterday, kill ing a man, two women and two horses. Dear Aunt Yvonne, how troub)led you must have been!" "I'll confess there were times when I thought we were rolling diown- thme mountain," said Lorry, with a rl'Qler-ed shake of the head. "Sometimes I thought we were soar lng through spaice, whether- upwarId or' downwnerd I onld not toil We necv'r .By...* R McCUTCI1EON failed to cone to earth, though, did we?" she laughingly asked. "Emnplhatically! Earth and a little grief," he said, putting his hand to his head. "I)oes it pain you?" she asked quick ly. "Not in the least. I was merely feel ing to see iIf the ut were still there. Mr.-Mr. Guggenslocker, did the con luctor object to holding the traint?" he asked, reiii mel'ring what the condu' tor had told himl) of the old gentleanaii's actions.
