(4 r alcClur hftvft aalct.)
Mary Ann IS bujler bow she bated
the UBiiie, flint Is, the Mary Aim part,
for ono must fid in It Seliu) ler dd sound
rather idee turned white with emo
tion, then red with Joy, when the pwtt
niUticsK, liiMcHi of the usual suija
tlicllc nnd apologetic, "Nothing today.
Mts Ann," sudlliiKly react. ed Into tba
Kvhu.vler box. The ImpoNlni; envelope,
the lu of which had never befortt
been seen In mini Sprlnplale; had ex
cited the food ludy'i lnu.ulMltlvenea4
and the recipient's Incoherent replies
to her neighborly chatter added fuel to
the flu me.
But the little trill of music that went
dnneliig it) nnd down Mary Ann's heart
trlii;s descended Into buss when (he
saw the unknown handwriting. To one
to whom u letter was an event, such au
iirlstocrntlc envelope, to say the leant,
should have been opened with untlclpa
tory curiosity, but Mary Ann seemed
npalhetleally disinterested nnd plodded
wearily home, wondering why the sua
had tone down go early.
But when she came to her favorite
"thinking place," so full of memories,
she opened the letter. "Mr. and Mrs.
Stephen Cartaret," her heart skipped
several bents, "pleasure lunrrlnge "
her eyes missed several lines, while
the worhl seemed slipping nwuy, "their
thiunhtcr." The world ciune back.
"Elaine" brought bacL polnnntly with
a little shiver of lumiHUitlon, of which
he was ashamed, but which she could
not suppress, ilie day when Philip hud
brought bl nrlsiot ratio mother and
sister to call, and denr old Aunt Mar
tha's Invltutlon to stay to supper, eat
en In the spotless little kitchen.
Well, she didn't have to bother about
tblnkiiiK of going to tlie wedding, any
way, that was out of the iiies(lon. l'bll
I. nd only sent I he Invitation to tie po
lite. He knew she couldn't afford to
go to New York, nnd didn't have any
clothes but the sprigged dimity which
she hnd worn on that never-to-be-for-got
icn night when she had met blui.
And then he hnd gone back to college
ii nd suddenly his letters hud censed
and Ann wns left with a vacuum which
nothing could till.
But n wedding prccnt he simply
must send h wedding present, and the
thought prexented a serious problem.
Ann's soul carried a weighty secret,
one which she couldn't share with lov
ing, iiilsuiideroiuiidlng Aunt Martha,
who couldn't see any difference be
tween her beloved niece with her
sweet, simple ways and sophisticated
Elnlim CnrlHiet, unless. Indeed, the
difference was greatly In favor of Anu.
Aunt Martha hnd a few vague Idess
about trusting maidens and men who
loved and rode away, and her loyal
heart deeply resented Philip Carteret's
envalier behavior, but she respected
Ann's reticence and Ills mime wu
never mentioned between them. 1
L Ann haI subscribed to a number of
New York papers since I'hlUp bad
left, a terrible exti avagaiiee, nnd every
morning when Hie mail ciiino In she
hastened to I he leafy ret rent which
she mid Phil hnd discovered nud mailt
their own, nnd with Iteming heart eag
erly scanned the news of the great
city, which wns only a name to her, a
It seemed to bring Philip nnd his worhl
nearer. This morning she read the
pnges uiecluinicHtly, her subconscious
mind thinking wedding prevent.
"linnd Made Rag Rugs for Sale."
Rng rtius! She caught her breath.
Iusluiitly her mind regitered a picture
of Klulnc's spontaneous enthusiasm
over the beautifully I. raided rugs
which Ann herself hud uisde from ne
cessity. And Kiiiine hud said they
were all the rage In New Yolk and
people were, paying all kinds of priced
for theiu.
The next few days were busy one.
Aunt Marihit dyed nnd Anu s btiy tin
kers tore und bruhh'd and sewed. Aunt
.Martha grumbled iheertully over the
dainty colors which Ann Insisted
should io In, her prut-alt- soul cruvlQrf
M-niceuhle color, hut the rug that
grew under the iiiinMc ti life lis of th
girl who wns weavinK all the beauty of
her own lose ilininu into the reality of
another's wu ii tuiry rug of dainty
Idue and pink and white, with daring
dashes of l.lto k. nnd as a piece de li
blsiuuce, the cen.er was made from
the odds and ends of the innuriul left
from the very same sprigged inusllu
which Philip had so luted lo see bis
"Dream tiiii" wear.
At hot it wns iloi.e nnd dispatched,
the rosy cloud In which Ann had beeu
living in sterionMy disappeared ami
life became once more dull gray and
the days empty.
A few days before the wedding the
paper eoiituined nil account of the com
ing ceremony, u bsi of the fashionable
bridesmaids nnd of the beautiful, cool
ly 1.1 ft s which had been n ul the pros
pective bride. As she read, Ann's fa
bullied with sliaine. All at oi.ee tier
gift, inlo which she had woven su
much love, seemed ridiculous, yml I r
very soul seemed to shrink' from bu
liiilhitioii. Ktcn the eagerly wailtd
for uckliow ledgineiit. If i-nly a foi'lvuil
one, hud not united.
So deep was her depns.it taut
even the crackllug brand es did not
break her reverie until u deep, vibrant
voice slHi tleil her into almost unbeliev
able ecstasy. She cared not one wait
for his explanation". The past waa
gone, the present wits emuigh. But this
future: well, Eluines widhng was a
double one and Philip alwuyk tensing
ly declared thai both bible ele total
ly eclipsed by the ad.on;. t.in fcicu.nl til
