The Kirl glanced over the well kept iwn, past the road and so across the elds to the cool dark of the woods bound. "Fretty!" she repeated scirnfully. It's just tUe loveliest thing lever iw. It looks almost like the counry." 'Almost," achoed Barrion. "I say hat's a bit iough on a fellow. Slicherr guaranteed that it would be the eal thing." "That's just the trouble," she exilalned* "You just go to the man nd tell him you want to give him a am dance regardless of expense. Tour jack-o'-lanterns are carved by n artist and they are Illuminated by lectric lights Instead of candles. You lance in the barn, but the dancing loor you blald down costs more than ome of the real barns themselves, and >he baud jou imported from town will day the same music that wc are gong to have all winter and by the lame men." "I wanted to have the bent," he aid, a little sulkily, as he turned .way. A little hand rested upon his irm for a brief instant, thoug li he elt the Impress lone after It had been emoved. "It Is the best -your best,'' she aid. "But It's not a real farm dance ,ny moje than this is a real farm, 'ed. It's all a play and a pretense.

Ted glanced approvingly at the simle little print frock that suited so rell the fresh, rounded tigure and the dquant face above.

On the lawi: were scores of small tables served b) ricgio waiters lookli.g oddly unhappj in tbctr overalls, which for the nighi replaced their usual serv'eo clothes.
