Into the shabby olil library came, shyly, Nora. Between the doorway curtains she paused uncertainly; It was evident that the family were In council concerning her own small self. "Come In Honors," said one sister-In-law briskly, "we are discussing the matter of your future. Now, that old Uncle Peter Is dead, you will have, of course, to seek a homo elsewhere. I mURt say, Uncle Peter was astonish ingly cureless in his living." "The poor old fellow has long been an Invalid," her husband reminded her. "Well I'm sure," spoke up the second slstor-ln-law, "Philip hns done, mora than most uephewa In helping him along. Because Philip happens to be, prosperous Is no reason why he should be a source pf support for dependent relatives." "If jou plqasc," spoke Nora gently, from the doorway, "I'll be going." And she was gone. "Such a queer girl," sighed Peter's wife, "she has even caught Uncle's soft brogue. And has no more Idea of responsibility than n kitten. She Is not fitted for any branch of business that I can Bee. What are we going to do with her?" "Honors was old Peter's constant nurse," her husband meekly defended. "She hasn't been able to leave the old fellow for years not since he be friended her when she was orphaned and little more than a child." "Whenever I called," his wife retaliat ed, "Nora was usually humming about tho garden. Used to He there In a hammock swinging nnd singing, while Uncle Idolized her from the porch. Everything thnt girl did was Just right In his eyes. He would hesitate to dis turb her Idle hour by nsklng for a glass of water when thirsty. When It wns too cold for hammock lolling, Nora was usually at that crncUed old piano. She certainly took little advan tage of her spare time." "Nora used to play mighty pretty things," Philip said remlnlscently. "I liked to hear her sing them In thnt sympathetic little way all her own. It was the only pleasure the kid had." Peter looked up with a question In his eyes, then turned awny disappoint edly. "I urn glad," he said In a low tone to his brother, "that we were able to persuade Gransby to attend Uncle Peter. Uncle used to be good to us when we were boys nnd Gransby's about the best surgeon In this part of the country. I was surprised when at ter seeing old Peter, he agreed to take on the case. Gransby Is coming out to take dinner with us today," Peter in formed his wife. She frowned. "And you did not let me know In time so thnt I could have sister Myra here. You know that Dr Gransby Is the sought-after In Myra'n set." "Little good. It will do those beauti ful maidens from what I hear," an swered Philip. "Donald Gransby In married to his profession." Far out on the lawn the family saw Nora despondently standing, her arm about the neck of Uncle Peter's loved old horse. Then, into the fnmlly circle came, with his assured easy tread, the successful young surgeon. Dr. Gransby's smile however lacked Its usual assurance, his tine face looked tired and worn. "We were," Philip Informed him, "debntlng what might be best for Nora to do. Perhaps you can help us." The surgeon accepted the chair pushed out for him, then as promptly arose to walk Impatiently the length of the room. "The very best thing for her to do," he said emphatically, "Is to mnrry me. For more than three weeks I have been trying to Impress thnt fact upon her." 4 It was Peter's wife who broke the silence which followed. "You mean," she usked unbelieving, "that you have nsked Nora to marry you, and slit refused? Surely the girl could not be o Indifferent to her advantage?" Donald Gransby smiled; It was a tendei smile. "Nora," he replied, "Is not n girl who thinks of advantage where love happens to be the Importnnt Issue. Nora Is different. Perhaps that Is why 1 love her so." "I think the girl Is confused with her problems and success," said Don ald Gransby. "Of course you have heard that Reverto, the concert singer. Is greatly Interested In Nora's com positions and undoubted talent. She went, I believe, directly to him after one of his recitals and submitted one if her songs for his consideration. Ite erto went wild over, the lilting air, nnd is publishing It oil his own ac count. He tells me that Nora will un doubtedly reap a fortune. He used to drive OHt here to Uncle Peter's to havo her Improvise for him. And naturally fell In love with her sweet sincerity and simplicity. So Reverto also has nuked Nora to marry him I And both of us we wait." The clock ticked loudly In the shab hy library. Across the lawn, slowly dime Norn. They heard her opening liords as she sen ted herself before the tinkling old piano In the parlor. Then Donald Gransby Jumped to his feet and hurried through the door. And nfter her murmured word of greeting io lil in. the nr 111 listening family heard Nora's eloquent music chango sudden ! from plaintive sadness to unmis t a Stable Joy.
