prophesied her younger brother
George.
“It’s an iwfnl disgrace,” walled hei
sister Marie. “The very Idea! We, ol
the best old family In the county, tbt
aristocratic Moreheads—and Jlmm>
O’Toole, the black sheep of even such
a family as the O’Toole’s! Besides
he’s younger than she!”
. “Utterly incomprehensible to me,’
declared the mother gravely. “Alvina
has always been so conventional, al
most too much, and so very particuiai
with whom she associated.”
The door opened and the family
looked somewhat embarrassed as a
slim young woman, her defined, sweet
features fairly shining with happiness,
came into the room. .
“Oh, you’ve been discussing me;
don’t deny it,” she laughed.
“My dear, the whole town is dis
cussing you!” her sister deplored.
“I don’t care. Neither does Jimmie!”
with defiant, good humor.
“Oh, Jimmie O'Toole, he's used to
notoriety.”
If Alvina winced no one noticed ex
cept her mother. "My dear,” said the
latter gently, “I am very much con
cerned about you. Jimmie O'Toole has
not the best of reputations and 1 can
not see how such a marriage will bring
you any happiness.”
“May I add a word?” asked the
brother and. without watting for |»er-
miaslon. “you’ll never marry him. be
cause Jimmie isn't the stick log kind.
