Marvin Dawes arrived in Oak Lawns on the four o'clock train from the city on November 1. As usual he was nog a day late. He halled a waiting sta- tion taxi to convey him and an assort- ment of bags and boxes that had are rived by an earlier train out the old Cedar Swamp road. He stopped at the post office on the way for the keys that were always left with the postmaster on October 31 and as often called for oy Marvin Dawes on the following day. “You don't happen to know a woman that wants to work as cook or house keeper?” asked Martin of the postmas- ter. “The Jap 1 had so many years nas gone to San Francisco and left me in a lurch” “Why don't you get another Jap?” was the postmaster's not too civil an- gwer. “They always sald you were so partial to 'em.” Marvin Dawes laughed. “Well, I was,” he admitted. “But the fact 1 had a feeling that the old place would be a little more cheerful if there i8, perhaps you might hear of some one who'd like the place. If you do, let me know.” And so Marvin was off One of the boxes he had brought up from the station contained tials for a quickly made supper, which very great skill or enjoyment. The next day arrived the faithful Pat with Marvin's two saddle horses, It was a standing agreement between closely following every November first he, Pat, should report for duty until the following May first. During six warmer months Pat always found work but: he would never consent to a permanent position would make it impessible for him return to Marvin with November, Pat's work consisted In taking care of the two horses, one of which Mar- vin kept for himself and another for occasional guests. This and the old place kept him or ably busy. As a cook Pat neither variety nor skill, but he naturedly to fill in breech left the departure of Jap. The postmaster either could or would Secure a Successor. “As usual,” Marvin told Pat the day of the latter's arrival, “the place has been set in frightful confusion.

These daughters come estranged through the business quarrels of their hushands and tainly would not wish to share the old place, that his daughter Lucy should have and you've seen, [I suppose, t in con Be irse isn't. wasn't with chuckle agreed, as as did Marvin condait to occupy before his well either of had first to the last day of October, while first to the last day of April was left adequate and upkeep expen to pay all taxes ses of the house. so pute between the two sisters about the old house, Clarice had died leaving the right to the house her son, Marvin Dawes, who had become so attached to the house in his boyhood that he never falled to arrange that to his affairs so of autumn and winter. Lucey, too, had dled only a year before, and the right to occupy the house from May first to the last of October had been handed down to a grandniece of her husband, algo named Lucy. Marvin Dawes had no luck In finding a housekeeper or cook and he stuck the winter out none too comfortably under the rule of Pat in the kitchen. On the last day of April they departed, leaving the keys as usual with the postmaster, On May 1 Lucy arrived with Irish Hannah in the guise of chaperon and general household assistant, “It's a perfect shame Lucy told Hannah on the second of May, “the way that Marvin Dawes person upsets this place—takes down all the screens, stows away my white curtains and puts up those dreadful velour things; puts the wicker furniture In the attic and boards up the sleeping porch. It's absurd to think of the place as a win. ter home-—it wasn't built for that sort of thing" Lucy delivered her remarks from the vantage place of the ladder where she had been standing taking down Mar vin Dawes’ winter draperies. “It takes wo weeks to get the place Into decent sbape for summer, I really think thst something could be done about It There wns a will or something that made it perfectly clear that Aunt Lucy was to have her Interests protected and 1 am sure I ought to be, wo.” “You might be calling at the law- yer's to find out,” suggested Hannah good naturedly. "We could be running into town some day next week—" 80 It was that toward the end of the next week, as soon as ever Lucy and Hannah had managed to get the old house Into summer garb, Lucy made a flying trip to the city. She waited In the reception room for a few moments while the lawyer con- cluded his conversation with a pre vious caller, “I've never met the person” sald the caller, “and I've no desire to do so, but 1 wish you'd look up the will and see whether you can't find some clause to protect me—perhaps I could buy out the young woman's share in the house. I'd be willing to pay more than a fair price to get complete pos session, Suppose you look up the will and see whether we couldn't manage somehow.” The lawyer saw Marvin to the re ception room and was there informed woman waiting was Miss Lucy Brent “By the way,” said the lawyer call- ing to Marvin Dawes as he was open ing the door to depart, "suppose you a moment. 1 may have some question,” So Marvin turned back and the chair by Lucy Brent, whom the lawyer now gra. clously bowed into his private office, Lucy explained her perplexity. *I| have never met this unreasonable Mr, | Dawes and I have no desire to do so, | He is, of course, no real relative—only a very distant connection.” The lawyer smiled. “I'm sorry that you don’t want to meet him.
