7"., 'rndp." while 'the oldfr fo'k
cttlfd blm "Old Nat."
Ortndp,httd decided lonj neo that It
Mfh time for him to say "oodby"
'
r-
t thin old worlds He felt h was In the
ttir't'tbst tne worm woum p ibt ou
ter of without Win, and today, while
't sst huddled up In that old rocking
! rhilr, p'ofBnr 'y at his pipe, voices
J6fM from another room nearby Into
rfundoa b fSfoflte Kitting room, ana
what he heard made him Ion for the
md 'to come. lie wag more tftan eon
. .'need fhat he was In the way.
..".Well, don't blame me, Grace,"
i grandpa heard Richard, her hiiHband,
ttj, "If It wasn't for your father we
could be where It la nice and warm,
hut you know the trip la too much for
blra, and then he mlht be ailing "
Tht waa all grandpa heard, hut his
ionin-law'e worda wrung his very
..heart, and not once but often he heard
his daughter complain and nay that "It
t wasn't for father" she could do this
or' die could do that. Grace, his little
tjrl whom he bad worked ao bard for.
When she had cried or fussed he bad
ntrer complained, but always had en-
' oeavored .to please and cater to her
(lightest whim; now she no longer
, wanted hlra, her father. Were they
waiting for the day that he, too, waa
praying would noon come that very
' hour. If possible?
He turned to look out the window,
nd there, smiling In at him with two
fat 8now"balls in her hands, won Edna,
"the young girl next door, who bad taken
, quite a fancy to that old face looklns
, out of the window every day as she
looked In. Her cheeks were rosy and
her brown eyes sparkling, and into
grandpa a heart came new life a she
smiled on blm, and an he noticed the
youth bubbling over in her, how he
longed at mat moment to nave his youth
(',over again, to be as strong and healthy
as she was.
She came cloae- to the window and
, rubbed her nose on the pane, and, laugh
Mug happily, cried: "Grandpa, they
' hare given me permission to come in
find sit., with you If you care to have
''me," and at this moment Grace came
)into the room and espied the fair face at
,1 the window.
( "'Come right In, Edna. I'm sure
(J fathe'r1 would enjoy having you," ana
. grandpa was ao happy all toe could
(do was to puff all tho harder at the
,. old pipe, his heart beating fast to think
5 that after all aome one would care to
,;it and chat with him.
"Ob, grandpa. It is just too wonder
ful for words out today ! How I wish
'you could come snowsboeing with me!
The girls have gone off for the wcek
rnd and I have to go shoeing alone.
Do you know, grandpa, if It wasn't for
you looking out of the window every
day and smiling so nicely at me, 1
should almost die of loncsomeness. True,
the girls are here off and on, but they
have such wonderful times without me.
;They don't w-want me. grandpa I
f I'm only in the w-way "
"Why- what Is the trouble, little
missy? When I
viaugning away, I never dreamtd you
'. were unhaonv. Now. tell ernndnn nil
. ,. ....... - ,.v ..... v,
ftAw vnn At,r thai
iblc
' about It maybe I can help you."
"Well, they all have sweethearts,
grandpa, vou know"
"Ob! I see Frank and the Rhodes
boys. I often wondered why you were
stone so much."
"W-well, they d-don't want me, as
I would be an extra one. and well,
sometimes I wish I were dead. It's
terrible to think no one wnnts you. and
(a if), grandpa, mamma and papa I
nnOythem. They say I'm too bois
terous, and oh! I m so lonesome. Since
the snow came, and I enn't sit with
you on the veranda, I've been too lone
some for words. I wish jou could
come out."
"Tea, little missy, it is hard to think
that you are not welcome, even In your
own home, but I am sure your dear
mother and father welcome you. only
they do not realise that you are very
lonesome. They are probably very busy
with their 'problems and never dream
that you need their lore so very much.
Some day you will meet a nice young
boy who will want you very much, but
If hasn't happened along just yet, that's
all.
"Just you wait, missy dear, and then
you will have the best of them nil," and
grandpa puffed ever so vigorously at
his pipe, and in the circles of smoke he
saw the one he wished Edna to see and
love.
"Never mind, grandpa, about my
troubles. Don't think any more about
It. I am happy to have just you, and
I do love you very much," and she
nearly knocked grandpa's pipe clean
out of his mouth when she bugged him
tight and kissed him softly on the fore
head, and she was gone before he could
recover himself.
"Another visitor, grandpa, for you."
and George smiled na he slapped grand-
ps caressingly on the shoulder.
"Why, grandpa, who was that won
derful looking young lady I met as I
was coming In? I should think, grand
pa, you wouldn't keep such a secret
sway from me."
"Gad. boy! I was just thinking of
you and in you walk! She is one of
my rave ot sunshine, boy, and you arc
me oincr,
She is very unhappy and is
Komg over to Ilaymond Hill, snow
'hoeing. Go right after her, boy, and
ee that she gets home wfcly. Yea,
yes." you must do this for me. Tell her
that grandpa said It was nil right, and
that she will make him happy if she is
Try kind to you, George,'1 nnd the
somewhat dated George hastened away.
Iatt in the afternoon grandpa saw in
the distance two people skipping along,
hnd In hand. As they nenred the
house his heart gave a leap. There
they were, like two children, luughlng
and chatting away.
Grandpa, I couldn't have been un
wind to him if I tried, not when he
tsid me you said it was all right. And
n. grandpa, I must thank jou for the
most wonderful day ever."
. Ami, grandpa, you must insist that
as allow me to accompany her to a
Perfectly wonderful-to-be bungalow
