She looked at her fathers face, a
troubled face tonight He was watch
ing tho lovers regretfully; he did not
disguise It. Their quick plans, the readl
nfsa with which they solved the tremen
dous problem to como, the llght-hoart-cdness
with which thoy were hurrying
toward tho future had ho nnd the older
Charity been llko that twenty-five years
ago, when they had had supper at her
mother'a house, and told tho great news?
He remembered hlmsrlf, an eager, en
thusiastic lover hod ho really given bet
ter promise then than this handsome
young fellow was giving tonlcht? He
tried to remember the older Charity's
mnthori what she had said, what ex
pression her faco had .worn, and It
seemed to him that he could dimly recall
reluctance and pain and gravity in that
long-aso look.
After dinner Chorry nnd Martin In
all tho ecstatic first delight of recognized
love, went out to the wide front porcrv.
whero there were wicker chairs, under
he rose vines. Allx alono laughed ai
them a8 they went. Anne, with a storm
ln her heart, played noisily on the
nlano, and the doctor, nfter giving the
doorway where Cherry had disappeared
a wistful look, restlessly took to his arm
chair and his book, In such desolation
of spirit as he had not known Blnce the
dark day of her mother's death.
Tho next day Allx and tho engaged
pair walked up to Invite Peter to a
tennis foursome on the old Bllthedale
court. It was a Saturday, and n he
usually dined with thorn, or asked them
to dine with him on Saturday, they -un.
not surprised to find him busy with a
charcoal .burner, under the trees, com
pounding a marvelous dish of ch)cKen,
tomatoes, qrcam. and mushrooms, or
to ha his first words a caution not .,
tip things over if thov wanted any
dinner. His Chinese cook was hovering
about, but Peter himself was chef.
"Stop your messing one second I" Allx
said, catching him by tho arm. And as
ho straightened up Bho added, with a
llttlo awkward laugh, "Congratulate
theso creatures they they'ro going to
bo married! Why don't you con
gratulate them!"
Peter gave orw long look at Martin
and Chorry, who stood laughing, but
a nttlo confused and self-conscious, too
In the grassy, path. "With a shock Ilk
death In his 'heart, lie realized that It
was all over Their, protection of hr.
their suspicions, had come too late.
Ullnd child that she was, Bhe was com
mitted to this fascinating and myster
ious adventure.
His faco grew dark with a sudden rush
of blood. "Peter hates to have any one
else know a thing before he docs I" Allx
explained this later. But he went to
them quickly, and Bhook Hands with
Martin, and was presently reproaching
Cherry for her sccrotlvencsB In his old,
or almost his old way.
"Of courso nobody'B to knowdad In
sisted orf that!" said Cherry's soft,
proud llttlo voice.
"Did you suspect yesterday. Teter?"
Allx asked, tasting the sauco, and bunch
ing her fingers Immediately afterward
to send a rapturous kiss Into the air as
an Indication of Its dellclousnes. "Yes
terday when thoy wont oft nfter the

In a tall glass vase, was tho missing
Rose. And what do vou think? On tna

"Wo're caught! Wo'ro caught! I:t
us out! Let us outl" shouted old
Bachelor Button and his brothers as they
spied the children and Prince Peony on
tho window ledge. But tho Peony had
eves only for the lovely Rose and the
children were already sliding down the
long cord of the window curtain to the
floor.
It was not a hard task for tho three of
them to cllmli up 'the splrallng, grooed
leg of tho table, but how wero .they to
get the princess out of tho, to them,
tower-llko vnso?
"Could you catch ine If I jumped?"
fked tho princess, after they had
thought for some tlmo. But It was a
Yi "lstnnce nnd they feared to risk
J fall on tho hard surface of tho tame.
This gavo Billy an idea, however, aim
Picking up a corner of a tiny breakfast
napkin which lay or the table, he called
I0 i!..8 oyW8 t.o each tuke an end. Then
holding it, aa flremon hold a net, they
caned to the lovoly princess to Jump,
over the sldo of tho vnse she came, land

tho four of them slid dowrf tho table
eg, nnd, leaving the cross-patch Bache
lor Buttons to their fato. climbed up the
curtain cord, and .then down tho trellis
to freedom. '

In tho excitement over tho spilled punch,
she had been seized by the Bachelor But
tons and carried away. How, hearing
footsteps, they hnd all dropped to the
ground, and how Peggy'B mother's rook,
seeing them lying there, had picked
them up, carried them Into tho house,
and placed them In prison vases.
In the midst of tho excitement Peggy
heard her mother's voice, and bb she
rati over the ground townrd the lawn
