'oinuion sense ?'"No one can make n home without a woman In It," he omttered to himself "My friends won't come to keep me com pany. and I wouldn't want them any way." While lie spoke he pushed the button at the front door A moment before ir was opened a young woman of prepossessing appearance came up the steps An elderly woman appear ed at the door, and MacElligott drew buck. Tln? holy who fend just appeared Billet; ?jjl' "I understand that this house is to lot furnished. Can I see it?" "Certainly." '? Supposing the two had come together to look at the house, the keeper of it led the way Into t he living room, n daljiity little apartment, neatly furnish ed. and from there through the rooms on the lirst lloor. On reaching -the sec ond floor she threw open the door vf the best bedroom, remarking, "Any couple who couldn't be happy in this room couldn't be happy at all." MacElllgoti and the lady both looked very soher at this, for the keeper said It as if having mistaken them for a married couple. MacElUgott looked at the celling, and the lady looked at the floor. ? ? "And here,-^- contlnue/1 the speaker, opening a door communicating with a s trailer room, "is a convenient room for a child. The crib over In that cor ner will be left with the other furni ture." ? . ' Neither the genth'mnn^Qgulhe 'Ijidy showed (lie expected appreciation for" . tile.. child'js.,. room or the crlh<<hut the conductor passed on to other chambers, expatiating on what they were for and how convenient they were, finally pass ing down Into the living room again. She was ahout to make an effort to rent the house when there was a ring at the doorbell, and she left them while she answered It. The lady fctood looking down to the floor. It was very stupid of flie keeper to go about talk ing to them as If they were married when they had not even met before. MacElllgott thought It time to assure the lady that if she wanted the house he would not think of standing In her way. After an. ahem he did so. "Taking a house is only a passing fancy of mine." she replied. "I'm tired of boarding and would like, a house,, but 1 have no one to occupy It with me. and I doubt if I should Im prove my condition by housekeeping. True. It would give me occupation to take care of It, but I should have to take In a woman as a roomer for com pany. and I dislike having persons about in whom I have no Interest, lie sides, a woman would be no protec tion." "I am in the same fix," replied Mac-" Elligott. "I'm a bachelor, and if I should take a house ft would soon be a sorry looking place, with no woman to took after It Without constant scrubbing, brushing and putting things to rights any house will run down " "That's very true, but you could hire a housekeeper, some elderly person, whose presence wouldn't? wouldn't ex rite comment " "H'm! I would prefer one whose presence would excltt*. comment." At this the lady's eyes dropped again to the floor. "flow would it do for you' to take the house and rent a room to some old man. whose presence would not cause comment? He would serve perhaps for protection." There Was no reply to this, the lady . keeping her eyes on the floor, hut her features said very plainly. "I'd rather bsv* u man ?l>out my own age.** Meanwhile the keener was showing another pVrson through ,the house, and MaeElllgott. hearing them coining downstairs, snld: "May I make bold to ask your ad dress? I may* he nhle to suggest a plan for you. I hare a cousin who" The lie was not s|>oken The keeper wns coming The lady hurriedly gave her uddres* In a low. tone and passed out. MaeElllgott waited till the third party had gone, then made u bargain for the house "When would you like possession ?" asked the woman. "T don't know.1' "I take It your wife Is much pleasifl -with the house " "Very much ptensed " MarEllluott paid the rent on the house for three months, then one dn\ calh-d with the lady he bad met there and made arrangements for its oc?n panry.
