Easter holidays had como nnd bo cause Mndgo had no family to return to during tho Bchool vacation, sho hnd been glad to accopt tho task of return ing homo with Vivian to share tho duty of taking caro of tho young Stonoworths. Mr. and Airs. Stone worth had departed tho day boforo for Bouthorn climes to bo gono a week. Madgo had dined alono with tho lit tlo girls, nnd aftor intrusting thorn to tho caro of thoir maid to be put to bod alio had retracod hor way to tho library, of which sho had caught a glimpso boforo dinner. From Vivian's fow comments Madgo hnd formod a distinct mental Imago of tho tutor. Sho fancied him lonn, precise, pedantic and Immaculate, both In appearailco and In apoech. Sho hoard a muffled Btop on tho heavy rug bohlnd hor. "So you aro Miss Peckhnm," said a volco so molodlouB and magnotlc, bo unllko anything Madgo had associated with tho probnblo Mr. Snced, that buo gavo a porccptlblo start. "May I lntroduco mysolf ? Wo Bhall havo to seo moro or less ot each other for ton days. I hopo we shall get on famously." "I am very glad to moot you, Mr. Snoed," said Madgo, making a rapid visual survey of tho athletic young man boforo hor. "Isn't It really qulto a lark to bo hero?" sho laughod. "I havo novor been In such a wonderful houso bo foro. It Is qulto llko a fairy talc, though no doubt wo shall havo our hands full. I am suro Vivian will bo docilo enough, but Illldogardo does not know mo. I aupposo Billy Is qulto a terror. Did you seo that ho had been put to bed boforo you camo down?" Tho next morning, when Madgo de scended to tho breakfast room at eight, sho found hor charges already at breakfast. "Billy la tho limit," put In Vivian, with a knowing glnnco at Hlldegardo. "It la Just dreadful when ho Is at meals. I'm glad Mr. Snoed mndo him hnvo breakfast upstalrB." "I am qulto suro I shall bo great frionds with that bad Billy brother of yours," said Madgo, although socrotly Bho was glad that tho complications of tho first morning hnd not boon In creased by tho addition of Billy. That first of tho Easter holidays was ono of those days that Booms llko tho longest and tho shortest of a lifetime At Mr. Sneed's suggestion, there was a morning horsoback rldo in tho mild spring air, lunch in tho sun parlor and an afternoon spent first at music In tho music room, when Madgo and hor Httlo charges played for tho entertain mont of tho tutor, and, lator, hours spont In tho library. Aftor tho girls had gono to bed, Madgo mado hor way down to tho 11 brary, this time bocauso tho tutor had mado hor promlso to meet him thero when thoy parted at dinner. "Haven't tho children boon wonder ful?" sho said, as soon as thoy had taken their places boforo tho embers of tho low-burning llro on tho hearth Madgo had changed her slmplo navy bluo dress for an equally slmplo ovo ning frock of whlto that added a, hun dredfold to hor charms. In that won derful day sho had bocomo well ac I qualnted with tho tutor and sho oven wanted him to admlro hor. It didn't soom at all presumptuous, but simply as tho culmination of u wonderful oxperlonco whon tho tutor told her that ho loved her, that sho was tho lovollest woman ho had over known and that tho day with hor had been tho most beautiful In his llfo. "And It Is so Btrnngo," alio wns say ing as thoy sat thoro In tho glow of tho ombora. "I hnd bucIi n distinct impression of what Mr. Snced would bo llko. I thought ho would havo gray eyes, but not at all tho kind of gray eyes you have " "It was because I had gray oyos that you know I was Mr. Sneed, then? Tho funny part of It is that I am not Mr. Sneed at all." "Who aro you, then?" sho asked In amazemont. "I am that vory bad boy Billy whom you told us you woro qulto suro you should llko. You seo, I am really Viv ian's brother." "But Mr. Snead is Billy's tutor!" intorposed tho mystilied girl. "Yes, he is. You seo, I cut collcgo to go in business with my father, and now that ho's mado his pllo I want to go back and study law and Sneed 1b helping with tho examinations. But when Vivian, tho rnscal, told mo thnt tho teacher was vory pretty, I Just thought I'd glvo Snead a vacation and stay homo with my sisters Instead. I know ho didn't appreciate the pretty tcachor half as much as I should. 1 nover thought of pretondlng that 1 was Sneed till you suggested tho de ception, and of course tho youngstnrs wero delighted to holp tho game aluij?. That Is probably why thoy havo bo haved so well today." (Copyright, 1910, Ijy McClure Nownpa per Syndicate.) Penn Mutual Life Ins. Co.
