TEMPERAMENTAL PEGGY
By LOUISE OLIVER.
The uppluu.se* for the grout soprano
wus dying away when I'cggy covertly
slipped into the huh parlor und drew
the curtained French door shut l>e

opportunity to get uwuy from the hot,
ctowded drawing room into the tnvlt*
In# cool, green rtHHi?Ht>?.
Hut who wus disappointed in her
search for solitude, for it luuu Jn
stuutly roie from \ the depths of 'a
wicker chair und l>owed courteously.
"I ho* your pardou," (muted
IVfgy."
"l>ou*t apologise, please! It's pleai*
unt to be disturbed, sometimes. And
it Is up to me to eliminute myself
from the scenery If you wish to be
aloue."
"No, don't go," she begged, und
smiled so prettily thut Juck I'urk need
ed no second invitation to remain. The
uppiuuse started uguin und grew so In
sistent thut I'eggy held up a hand.
"Listen ! They want another encore.
Aren't they greedy !"
"1 wish Gardner would give It to
them und keep them quiet," he suid. ?
"1 don't believe she will," she an
swered getting In a low chair beside
11 fountain full of goldfish and dubbing
her bunds in the water. "Sit down
und let's talk. This Is more fun thun
their *tupkl old mnsicnle. 1 don't care
If you are host. Xou probably are,
you appear to be so very much at

"I um at home, but not host," he
unswered finally, "I bite musicules,
too. I'm Jack I'ark ?nd have the
honor of being Jessie's brother. Jes
sie. Is Mrs. Crlxton-Puync." ?
"Can you sing?"
"Oh, not to speak of'. I can a lit
tle."
"Will you 'Alabama Coon' for
me some duy?'\
"Gludly !" Then, suddenly looking
out over the grounds she exclaimed,
"v.ho is that funny fut old man?"
lie followed her eyes. "That Is, I
think, Gardner's business manager/'
"Really ! What a bore to have to
travel around with an uninteresting
person like thut. I suppose he dom
ineers over her and won't let her'
eat this, that or the other thing while
he stuffs himself, and makes her walk
five miles every day while he rolls
around in automobiles.
? "Awful !" declared Jack. "Let's go
out and give him a punch and dump
hun Into the latee.'x ? j
1'eggy giggled. "Mflybe he'll be gone
when we get there !"
Jack held the door and they soon
found themselves on the terrace. ' v
They came to the end of a pergola
and below them spread the lake.
On a bench a hundred yards or so
away sat the little fat man putting a
cigar, The lake was directly be
neath him.
"Shall I?" ask (Ml Jack eagerly.
She hesitated, then nodded Impul
sively.
So, tiptoeing through the shrubs,
Jack grabbed the bench in both hands,
suddenly tilted It toward th6 water and
? splash ! The little man was In.
Jack came back grinning. "He can't
drown. It's only four feet there.
Come on, let's go over to the sum
merhouso and hunt up the kids.
So, leaving their victim to dry out
as best he could, they climbed the hill J
to the little rustic summerhouse,
where three children in charge of a
nurse were having a glorious time.
The baby held its little arms up to
Peggy. "You darling," she cried lift
ing it. Baby gurgled with delight.
Peggy buried her face in the soft JU-.
tie neck. "Let's take her back with
u?," she begged.
"Tn talc o good care of her !" smiled
Peggy to the nurse as she started
down the hill with her burden. "I'll
have to hurry," quickening her pace.
'Tin ? I'm expected at the house. Will
you please tell me the time I"
"Four-thirty," he answered, looking
at his watch. "Can't you stay Just a
little longer 7" he begged.
"I did Intend to, but I've changed
my mind. Let's go in and hear the
rest of the music. > Maybe Gardner
will sing something you can under
stand."
"But what shnll we do with the
baby?"
"Take Tier along 1" -
"Just as.y<>u say," he agreed doubt
fully, "You go in and I'll Join you in
?'-minute."
Five minutes later Jack Park re
turning through the big hall heard a
familiar song, "Mammy's Little Ala
bama Coon," coming from the crowd
ed drawing room. -
He looked through the door and
there Reside the piano, her arm thrown
aronnd the baby, stood Peggy singing.
?Her hair curled In pretty confusion,
her dress was rumpled and a smudge
of chocolate showed near the dimple
In her cheek.
"Hush-fi-by, my 111 pickaninny," *he
sang In a rich, full voice
thrilled Jack -to his very toes.
At the end of the hall, a little fat
man was slipping quietly dp the stnlrs,
mopping his face with his handker
chief and mattering things under his
/breath. ' ... . . . , .
Jack caught up to him. "Who is
that singing, do ym know?" he de
manded. ? /,L* ?
