threw ln-r arms in the air and shielded

"Don't let him touch me." she

Aunt Sarah put a soft hand on the

"It's all right, child: your friends

Slowly she moved her hands from her
face and looked at each one of us in

of persuasion into play, and after tlie
girl had been composed she spoke

"I'm afraid you'll lilaine inc. but 1

paced tlie room up and down as if un
certain what In do.
"Dick, she is only a mere child she
does it only to tpuse you, and you know
she doesn't care n mile about any of
them." Tom added consolingly.
Tom lliewsfer was Dick's c.ospsl
friend, and Tom knew only tot v ll
D'ck's greatest fault, which was his
jcalnus nver any attention shown l'ili
lira), his sweetheart from childhood,
l'ili was seventeen, blessed with nil
nbuiidaiiie of pretty brown curls and
two large laughing brown e)cs. Dick
and l-'lli played together when children,
and even when a child Dick would ic
seut the least hit of attention shown his
beloved playmate.
l'ili was home for the holidays from
boarding school, and Did; was home
also fur the holidays from college. The
lirst few days were delightful ones for
Dick and l'ili until Hob Merrill arrived.
Ilarbara Merrill had met l'ili nt a house
party the year previous, ami the) had
become good friends. Hob had been out
West for live years ami had just re
turned home "Handsome Hob." as he
was called by his most intimate friends.
After securing an intiodiiction to Kill,
Hob fairly monopolized ln-r, and fully
three ila.ys had gone by now nin' Dick
had not even a glimpse of I-'lti. lle
callcd at her home nnd was Itiiormeil
that "Miss Fiti" was out motoring with
Mr. Hob. or "Miss I'iti" had got." fish
ing with Mr. Hob. and pulling h!s cap
far over his eyes and with his Iriuils
deep in his pockets. Dick would icnr
nrotind the town looking for Hob nml
I-'ili. and when suddenly he did ennie
upon them arm in arm Inugbing happily,
Kill looked so unconcerned when she
' 'snw him and smiled up nt him so plcirs
antly. that Dick could only look nt her
nnd pass on without a word. Klti could
not understand for a moment; then re
membering the old Dick whom Ac knew
so well before they went away to school,
she knew he was jealous of Hob .Mer
rill's attentions, and I'iti decided to
cure Dick's jealousy. So the following
day when she was with Hob and Dick
appeared, she passed him by without
nny recognition on her pnrt whatever.
The more Kill thought of it tin- more
she wanted to lease Dick, so when she
received a note from Dick asking per
mission to act as her escort tn Harbara
Merrill's reception, to which they were
both invited. Kill declined with thanks,
and added that Mr. Merrill was going to
call for her.
"Tom. this is going the limit I just
can't stand it any longer: somehow or
other I wish tlie two weeks were up and
that I was back at college, plugging
awa). almost anything rather than
watch that fellow take her nway from
me."
"Dick, don't he foolish and stny away
from the reception whv don't you show
l'lfi that you don't can- why not make
her jealous' The trouble is. you show
that it is bothering you. mid slc is
aw me of it conic on.. brace up. or um
won't be in shape for the game when
you get back." and then Tom thought
of a scheme and told it to Dick, whore -

I in her, but 'loin, she's an awfully
good sport, and she knowH what a tease
I'iti is, so she might help us after nil.
and grabbing their hats they went furtl
in search of the good Ilarbara.
"Say, Dick, I've always waited to do
something like that for von, for I could
sec that you resented Hob's attentions,
and let me tell you a secret Tom i-n'l
at all in love with l'ili, but she is so
full of fun that he finds great pleasure
in hiking around with her and Nellie is
coming on tomorrow for the reception,
so that will make everything all right."

so ninny miles tin- IHCe grii) car had
suddenly played us false.
Karnes got down on uis back under
the car and said he thought he could
fix it up in n few minutes. Hut 1 was t
burning with Impatience ai-.l wanted to
go ahead on fool. A ft i brief talk ,
!l was decided I hat I should go on
mid that the veleian should follow me.
"Perhaps we'll belter go together."
he said, in a hi-silntiiig way.
"No." I decided for him. "jmi fol
low with the car. Mil) be you can
overtake inc. If not. I'll hold the fort
until you come."
I started off at a rapid gale and in
line spirits. Somehow I felt that the
end of our long adveiiliire was at hand.
Hut the journey proved to be more
trying than I had anticipated. For a
time it was up bill nml down dale.
I'oi tunately I was young and in good,
I health and was uhlc to manage it. Yet i
1 1 could not help feeling that if the
disunite was only a mile -as Harues
had calculated it was the longest mile
1 on record. I began to feel footsore i
and weary, but just when discourage.
meiii was .sinning In creep into my J
heart I beheld a wel ic sight on the '
hilltup. The red bricks and the green i
shutters could not be mistaken.
It was the House of the Hundred '
Keys. ,
