Peter sat up, ran his fingers through
his toweled hair and beamed at Pol- a
ly like a benevolent imp. "I don't li
see what you want to rush off to New T
York for. You won't make good, Pol- c]
ly. You girls think after you've sung o
in the choir in a dinky little town like zi
"Waneota all you have to do is get up 11
on a stage and be a prima donns b<
qulcker'n scat. Buell says?" a
*1 don't care to hear It, Peter."
"What on earth have you got against N
ouuii auuou : niHing young lawyer, ?<
and, by Jiminy, he will rise sure
enough. He's going up In an aero- n
plane." tl
"For pity's sake!" exclaimed Mrs.
Wadleigh. Polly looked at Peter with
doubt and suspicion in her eyes and 11
the time table in her hand. b
"He Is. I heard him talking to a
some fellows at the post office, and w
he said he'd Just as soon go as not." w
Polly went out of the room with
her nost tilted at rather a scornful 11
angle. It was quite like Buell to say
such a thing in Pete's hearing to be a
sure it reached her ears and would 11
make her worry about him.
Polly decided that nothing could a
ever make her worry cr trouble her- J*
self again about Mr. Abbott. She
was not interested in his goings or
comings, or ascensions for that matter.
Safe in her own room, she stood ?
before the oval mahogany-framed
mirror, ana iooKea at tne iace tnat
stared so haughtily, so uncompromis- c<
ingly, back at her. The eyes were
very blue, startlingly blue, with dark ^
lashes and eyebrows, and her hair, w
too, was dark. Polly liked to take it ^
and pile It high on her head, with a w
few loose curls at her temple and r1
ears, like a picture of the Empress w
Josephine she had cut from a magazine
and pinned on the wall. It was
a pity someone had not planned an ?
opera around Josephine, she thought.
She would have loved singing arias P1
of defiance at some stocky Napoleon. ^
Buell was rather stocky. Tall, but ^
broad shouldered, and rather inclined a'
to take things too easy. Yes, that q
was exactly the whole trouble, Polly ?
decided for the hundredth time. He
didn't have a thrill of romance 01 P
temperamental excitement in his a:
whole make-up. 81
It had always seemed natural for ^
Buell to be her sweetheart, natural *
for him to ask her quite casually one
evening a few months ago, "Which ?
side of the railroad track do you j*
want to live on, Polly, after we're h
married?" v
That was the way Buell proposed,
spoke of the divine fire of love in hia
heart. And it was Buell all over. *
Polly had Rebelled from that mbv
..ia ?ti_ J?.? _ h

side of the track either. She told t&W .
Abbott that she thought of running
down to New York and studying for
grand opera. And Buell had stared
at her for a minute In utter amaze- F
ment before he had actually laughed
at her and chuckled. b
"You're not, really, Polly?"
"Oh, but I am," Insisted Polly. "I'm t(
going next week;" b
All during her preparation for the
trip she thought of him until by the
time she took the train for New York a
she almost relented and called him up
to say good-by. Somehow he seemed j ,
rather noncommittal and not half so 8
anxious as she had expected.
It was around Poughkeepsie, half J*
way down the Hudson, that Polly no- .
ticed the other passengors watching .
something from the windows, some
thing very exciting. When she looked .
out she saw hovering over the river 8
a flying ship like a great bird.
Qi-l-Ui J "
uuuiKui uuwn 11 came toward the
racing train. As it passed them, the a
engine emitted a shriek of salute, and
the people called from the windows
and platforms, waving caps and hand- a
kerchiefs; but Polly drew back into )4
her own seat, with wide, almost frightened
eyes. Over the telephone Buell a
had told her last of all: t(
"Remember our favorite song, w
'Loch Lomond,' Polly? Well, listen to
this, and it's a promise?
'You take the high road and I'll take
the low road.
And I'll be in Scotland before you.'" e:
Now she know what he meant. Slow, ei
easy going, unromantic Buell had w
chosen the most sensational route to ^
follow and overtake his swctheart on ?
her Journey after fame and fortune.
uuicisiancing tne train, the aeroplane ri
alighted at Tarrytown, and when the s
express pulled in Duell stood smiling ^
on the platform, his hat off, bowing in lr
response to the greeting cheers. ^
As scon as ho had found Polly tie
shook hands laughingly and settled ni
down Into the seat beside her.
"I've told the other chap, Chapin, hi
he can go back without me," he said
calmly. "Made pretty good time, m
didn't we?" w
Polly looked at him with a new
expression of admiration in hor wide tt
eyes. I
"I don't see why you ever did such I
a wild thing, Buell," she said helplessly.
"Don't you?" he replied cheerfully. g?
"Well, I had to catch you before you si
reached Aunt Eudora, didn't I? Now, m
as soon as we reach Now York I can 11'
explain matters to her, Polly, and st
wo'll be married at her house and
go back to Waneota." Bi

Katrine Wharten was being talked
bout. Tongues and fingers were flylg
at the Ladies' Missionary band,
he big stove in the parlor at the
hurch was sending out great waves
f welcome heat, for outside a blizlrd
was raging. Mrs. Milton, on the
oor with an immense pair of scisars
in her hand, was cutting around
shirt pattern laid on red flannel.
"What I want to know is," Mrs.
[llton paused and waved her scisors
with a Patrick Henry gesture,
why she won't come. It looks
lighty queer to me. I sometimes
link it must bo a guilty conscience."
Rev. Mr. Washburn raised his head
*om the sermon he was preparing
i his study. He frowned and puBhed
ack his chair impatiently. He had
n idea that he knew of whom they
ere talking, and it hurt. Mrs. Milton
ent on:
"Of course, when a woman is livlg
all alone she can't be too carell.
Naturally when her uncle died
ad left her the house and a little
loney to live on, she left her work
i the city and came here. All well
ad good! But how do folks know
hat kind of a person she is, coming
ere a perfect stranger, unless she
ries to prove she's respectable?
he's been asked to Join every solety
in this church and has refused,
nd I've seen her with my own eyes,
irough the parlor window, playln*
irds by herself."
The young minister knew without
earing that the ladies of the church
ere- nnstue to tne independent young
oman. A few weks before when he
as in bed with a serious illness Kat!ne
Wharten had pitched in. She
ent over every day to the preacher's
ouse and washed dishes, cooked,
aked, scrubbed porches and ironed,
nee she had washed the clothes.
The lowered voice in the ladies'
arlor caused him to shudder. He
new perfectly well that all this was
sing discussed. The propriety of her
ttention to the sick man bad been
uestioned by all the ladies of the
mgregatlon.
He could stand it no longer. He
ut oil his hat and went out. The wind
nd snow that met him at the door
iddenly cooled his indignation. What
ad he done to be blessed with plenty
ad comfort when fellow men. Just
s worthy, were suffering? For in:ance,
Mr. Cassldy with his wife and
>ur children and likely another one,
ad been sick for four months. He
onderea now if they had food and
aal. He would go Immediately and
ad out.
The wind fairly bl$w him Into the
irpetless hallway of the Cassldys.
[e had tn filmself against the,
rail to get the door shut. Thesuden
lull from the beating elements
utslde seemed queer?the house
sually noisy was hushed. The doorway
into the front room was open,
'our children were quietly playing a
ame on the floor, a big fire was
urnlng In the grate, and In a low,
roken chair near It sat Katrine Whar?n
dozing. On her lap lay a newlyorn
baby.
Rev. Washburn went In as Sdftljf
s he could, but Katrine heard him
nd sat up with a start, nearly
ropplng the baby. She laughed as
he grabbed It.
Then she turned a lovely red. It
ras the first time he had even seen
er confused. Suddenly she remem
ored to hold out her hand. "How
o you do, Mr. Washburn? I am
oing the honors today. Won't you
It down?"
"You seem to be doing more thati
onors, Miss Katrine. It makes me
Bhamed of my tardiness. How is
Irs. Cassldy, and how is Mike's
tieumatlsm? Is the baby a boy or
girl?"
"It's a girl," piped Lizzie, aged ton.

came day 'fore yfestefday, Wfl

"Hush, Lizzie, hush!"
"I was Just goln* to tell tho preach*
r. She sent us coal, and stuff to
at, and stayed hero an' did all the
ork, an' took care of tho baby, an*
rought Jorry an* mo shoes, an* an'
h?everything."
An hour later, when a relative arvod
to look after the family. Rev.
umuel stnrted homo with Katrine
trough tho snow, ills heart was slngig.
There was no doubt In his mind
r*w about this sweet, charitable girl.
Why didn't you want Lizzie to tell
ie, Miss Katrine?"
' Because 1 hate to do thingB and
ave everybody know.'"But
you won't do anything in the
tissionary societies and I thought?
e all thought?"
"Yes, I know what everybody

"It's a pretty good way, Katrine."
It was the first time he had for>tten

le would drop his arrn. A dreadful
inufe passed- then she snuggled a
