Hut ever and anon his eyes were drawn lrreidstlbly back to tho por trait. Heo, ho reflected, such a girl as that could get away vvitfi anything, even so lavish a ,bestowal of her affections on such a brief acquaintance. Hesldes, hadn't everbody. when In formed that he was going out to the coast, told him of thu delightful free dom and unionventlotiallty of western girls' This, no doubt, wa- merely one glorious sample. Heups of love ' Well, no wonder soma old-timer said, "Qo west, )ounir man, go west!" Then, nt u though which of a sudden occurred lo him, Harold sat upright and smote savagely one list with tho other. '1 huuderutlon ! To how many other men was tho adorable Klolso sending heaps of lovo and her photograph? Several weeks previous to tho receipt of the photograpn Harold Hturtevnnt had been sent out to California on busl licsi) for his firm Through n letter of Introduction supplied by a fraternity brother he had been given a taste of true western bospltnlltv nml at an nf fulr given by the tlrahatns had met and succumbed to the charms of brown-eyed Klolse Wan en, visiting cousin of Hetty Urahatn. Ever ho dotlcately she had responded to his unspoken but evident admira tion and had granted lilm permission to call. Unfortunately, business had taken him out of town and, on his return, one thing and another had como up to prevent that call. Consequently, Klolse's picture might bo regarded as n very patent reminder of his Intentions. And, by George, he would go around to th Orahams this very evening. Go ho did, presenting himself expec tantly at tho lose-embowered Graham bungalow and already, In his Imagina tion, he was holding In his own the slim fingers of Klolsc and looking deep Into her como-hlthcr eves. Also, Inspired by her unrestrained advanceH In sending him heaps of love, lie uoulri not be hack- ward about demanding: a proof or two of the same a pressuro of her hand por- naps. wnen lie, irt, a urns!

Left thero when her father and mother died within a few days of each other. Only her brother loft. Ills liame'n Hat old, too. She'll bo glad to see you when sho's bcuor." On his way back to his room Harold worked out for himself the title explan ation of hlil receipt of the affectionately labeled photograph nt least, ho worked It out partly. In some queer way tho plcturo Intended for her brother llarola hud boen sent to hbn, but how- the mis take hnd occurred baffled hlin. Came an afternoon when ho was per mitted to call Seeing her, rather whlta and frail and wrapped In some fluffy covering, Harold could not but wonder nt first If she was really tho samp vi vacious llttlo person ho had met before. Then, as sho smiled up nt him, sho was transformed Immediately Into tho charming original of his photograph. Ho engrossed, however, did they be cotno In conversation concerning folks and places back home for niolse during her Illness had grown suddenly homesick for the east that not until neur tho very close of his visit did ho remember his desire to find out about the picture He approached tho subject casually. "I'd I'd like awfully well to have a plcturo of you, Mips Warren," he said tentatively as ho roeo to go. "Haven't one. single ono left!" ex claimed tho girl. "And it's tho funni est thing 1 Just before I was nick I did tip it plcturo to send to my brother Harold. And when I got well, it had absolutely disappeared and couldn't havo been mailed, because I hadn't ad dressed It I" , Thero was no doubting tho sincerity of her tone. He took his leave with tho mystery unsolved. Nor, until his wedding day, was It untangieu Then the vory prettiest of tho bridesmaids took hlin aside, for a word In his ear. "I think." sho whispered, a mischiev ous glint In her ees, "you owe your brluo to mei "To you, Hetty Graham?" cried Har old. "Jutt how?"
