Lakeside, the beautiful summer
homo of Mrs. Carter, kIvuhiiM llko nn
enchanted palace In the moonlight,
while from the brightly lighted ball
room came the strains of music,
mingled with the sound of dancing and
youthful laughter. Hvoi'yl.otly seemed
huppy, except one. From the shadows
of the upper balcony overlooking the
ballroom u young man -watched the
gay scene below with a frown. And
us he caught sight from time to time
of a certain fulry-llke ityuro among
tne dancers, a iook 01 aimosi inner
pain swept over his line features.
"Why, l'hll, my dear boy I" ex
claimed the hostess, spying the witch
ing figure In the shadow as she strolled
by with another matron. "Aren't you
dancing?" le answered haltingly that
he had a headache ; didn't feel up to
It tonight. "I'm afraid you young peo
ple stayed out oil the lake In the sun
too long today," replied Mrs. Carter.
"Whut a pity! And this Is Phoebe's
last night here, too."
Phoebe's last night! Phil knew
that, only too well! And again search
ing her out among the dancing throng,
he followed the lovely girlish figure
In silvery chiffons with longing t'i't'H.
Muttering on J excuse to Mrs'. Carter
about getting ome fresh air, he turned
away and left the balcony, followed
by Ills hostess' voice bidding him come
back later.
Avoiding the gay groups on the ver
anda Phil made his way through the
shrubbery, and dropping down on u
bench by the shining hike, gave him
self up to his bitter thoughts. With the
strains from the ballroom ringing
faintly in Ids ears, he closed his eyes
to shut out the bright moonlight nnu
went over ih his mind bit by lilt blB
acquaintance with Phoebe, Mrs. Car
ter's niece, from the day In .tune wlieu
she nrrlved, a stranger to tliem all, up
to tonight, when she had come to mean
Everything to Iilm. lie bad thought
her quite the nicest girl he'd ever met
that first day, when, arriving at noon
she found the rest of the house party
gone for a tramp and a picnic, and he,
her aunt's nearest uelghbor, had taken
her out in Ills canoe on the lake for
the afternoon. lie taught her how to
paddle the canoe and the memory of
her in her simple bllie gingham dress
with her golden hair blowing about
her laughing face, chine back to him
tonight so clearly that he groaned and
burled ills face hi ills hands. For lie
had never seen her in any simple ging
ham gowns again.
Chic morning dresses nnd sport
suits, correct yachting costumes, lacy
embroidered things for afternoon and
beautiful evening gowns had followed
each other in varying succession, until
Phil gave up all hope of ever daring
to ask her to share his love and for
tunes. Even to his uninitiated mascu
line mind Phoebe's clothes spelled
much money. He had an Idea that Ills
month's salary would not have paid for
the silvery gown she wils wearing that
evening (and he was quite right).
Well, It was madness to dream of
asking such a girl to marry a young
architect just starting out In business.
That was all he could do drenm.
With a sigh he got up from the bench
and started back to the house. He
would have one more glimpse of
Phoebe's beloved face before she ,went
out of ids life forever, although the
sight of her, so dear, yet for him so.
unattainable, would lie only one more
pnng. He found a place at one of the
bnllroom windows where he could look
In unobserved. He was searching
among the dancing couples for Phoebe,
who seemed to have disappeared, when
he heard her name repeated Just In
side the Window. Someone was talk
ing about her to a group of guests, and
before he could movo away Phil was
rooted to the spot Jin stunned Surprise.
"Phoebe?" the gossiping voice went
on, "Oh, my, no ! All those stunning
clothes she's been wearing Mrs. Carter
gave her, all of them." "She looks
charming tonight; where is she now?"
nsked a second voice. "I saw her go
ing toward the garden all nlono a lit
tle while ago," the other replied;
"sfie'd taken off Iter ball gown and had
on that old glnghnm thing she wore
when she first cume."
Phil turned nwny from the window
Just as Sirs. Carter laid a hand on his
arm, asking If his head still ached.
Strangely enough, his headache was
gone, and replying to her kind in
quiries with Ill-concealed haste.N he
vaulted over the vcrandu railing and
dashed around the house toward tho
garden.
Pigs Foretell Winds.
The killing of u pig at sea Is always
an occasion of great moment, not only
for the reason that fresh meat is to
be enjoyed a great luxury on sailing
vessels, after perhaps mouths of salt
provisions but also because what Is
termed a "pig breeze," or favorable
wind, mny be regarded as a certainty.
Pigs when kept on sailing ships are
allowed very frequently to lenve their
pens, nnd their movements on such
occasions, which are held to foretell
the wind to be expected, are watched
with tho keenest Interest. Should a
pig evince any signs of laziness, lying
down or wandering aimlessly about
the decks, then this Is a sign that
calm weather will come, with little or
no wlihl In prospect. Should, howevpr,
tho pig show n frisky mooij, with much
squealing, then It Is a suro "sign of
"big winds," a very negessary factor
In the navigation of a sailing ship.
TWO IN A BOAT

'it's Just three months ago trwlnr." '
reflected Lydln. "In another wiok
the hotel will be closed, the guests
gone, and we'll bo gone, too."
"Yes." nodded IJob; "It seems such
n short time since nnd wbat a holtp
of nice girls " lie broke'off abrupt-1
ly and bended the boat towards th
willows.
Lydhi looked- sweetly sympathetic,
"Tell mo about them," she urged. "Tho
heap of nice girls."
"I'd rather you'd Aell your story
first," returned Hob, half wistfully.
She glanced at him demurely. "All
right," s.W ropllod. good-naturedly, and
began :
"I came down hero the first week
In .Tune and met you for the second
time since our schooldays. We be
came engaged, but the engagement was
conditional. That Is. If either of us
met some one else whom we liked hot
ter, we were nt lllierty to do ns wo
pleased, In ense wo let each other
know." She paused Impressively nnd
struck at the water with her long,
white lingers, "t was your Idea, and
contained not too slightest opening for
one of those Interesting hrench-of-promlso
suits."
Hob Hushed, but said nothing.
"The nxt one to propose." she con
tinued, "was Mr.' Hillary, who owns
that splendid yacht down nt tho har
bor. Then came Mr. Merldnn. Charlie
Dibble. Victor and that dear, fat col
lege boy, Percy Downey. I refused
Percy, of course. He was deadly In
earnest, and I was afraid when be
should find I was only n summer girl
he might do. something unpleasant.
Glj;ls should nvold tho mnn who has
not lived long enough In this world to
understand Its ways."
"Little philosopher." applauded Hob.
"I'm not very wordly-wlso; aren't you
nfrald I'll make a fuss?"
Lydln shook her fluffy head. "You
made the conditions of our engage
ment, so you ought not to make a
fuss."
"Never." brenthed Rob, quickly ; "I'll
not do that. Pray contlnuo your do
delightfully Interesting tale," and he
splashed tho wnter spitefully with the
oars.
"The last was Mr. Harper, .who
boards at Elm cottage."
At the mention of Mr. Harper. Hob
burst Into nn uncontrollnble fit of
laughter and mnde tho boat rock vio
lently. "Stop Immediately!" cried the girl;
"you'll upset the boat."
"I have two engagement rings," she
retorted. "One is yours. You may
hay.lt now If you wish." fr.
He silently lighted a cigarette.
"You'll need it for one of those nice
girls you've met," she suggested quiet
ly. "Do I know her?"
"I believe you do." Ills tones were
curt. ,
"I think," he remarked coldly, turn
ing the boat out Into midstream, "thnt
we had better be going bnck to tho ho
tel. The sun Is already second there
Is no moon tonight."
"Why. Mr. Porter." she cried, "there
was a beautiful moon Inst night, so, of
course, there must be another tonight.
Mr. Morton and I snt out for a long
time Inst evening admiring It" '
"I supposo ho Is the fellow you nre
going to marry," Bob growled. "I re
member seeing him about tho hotel.
Sort of a sissy, Is ho not? One of
those, 'I'm mnmma's hoy, I am. I can
talk to tho girls. I know how.' "
"Oh, nron't you horrid?" laughed
Lydln. "I think Mr. Morton Is very
nice, Indeed."
"And quite ladylike, too," Bob slight
ingly added.
"You're not obliged to llko him,"
flashed Lydln.
"Certnlnly not. I say, Lydla, I'm go
ing nwny in tho morning very early.
Do you enro?"
"Is that so?" ncr tone was banter
Ing. "How disappointed the heap of
nice girls will be. Such a bright, eligi
ble young man."
Bob's tanned fa.ee burned redly nnd
he gave his full nttention to the oars.
"I supposo It's tho other girl whom
you are going to see," she remarked
thoughtfully. "How glad she'll he I"
"Deuce tnko tho other girl !" broke
from Bob's Hps Impatiently. "Lydln,
don't you care the lenst little bit?"
Lydla's pink cheeks grow n shade
deeper and her bine eyes twinkled
brightly. "I wish you would explain,"
sbe snld, provoklngly; "I really do not
understand you."
Bob ceased rowing and gazed nt.her
long nnd steadily. Tlion he turned bis
gaze thoughtfully across the river.
"Annj't we going In?" she pettishly
ftsked.
Bob turned his fnco to her with a
glow of determination In hls clear,
brown eyes.
"I'll tell you the name offho girl I
love, If you wll tell mo the name of
the chap you're going to mnrry," he
informed her, rather cheerfully.
"Indeed," she returned frigidly; "you
needn't bother."
"Come now, Miss Vane," he urged.
"I'm certain that you are dying to
know. I have her photo with me, too."
Lydla hesitated a moment, then she
luugheil half hysterically.
"Show mo tho photo," sbe said.
He drew It caressingly from nn In
side pocket and hold It out to her. Her
lips trembled ns she looked nt it. Then
their eyes met.
"You urn I be chnp 1 ,nm going to
mnrry." ul'l softly.
