"Here's something different for a change." Jerry wns the slim, brown-hnlred girl seated at a tablo reading n manuscript. She had lived with Mrs. Claxton slnco tho death of the girl's father bomo years ago nnd was considered ono of the fnm lly. Jerry wns grcntly Interested In tho manuscripts which Gilbert was forovcr sending away nnd getting back, and ono day sho had asked permission, to look ono over. Sho had read It and offered a helpful oritlclsm which re sulted in sale of tho story. After that Gilbert always lot Jerry peruso tho product of his brain before sending It nway. Mor eyes brightened when Gilbert held up tho small envelope, but his face took on a puzzled look whon ho noticed tho penmnnahip of the address. Ho tore tho envelope open in silence nnd read, and then he went out and took B walk without saying n word. Jerry s eyes followed him through the door, nnd they wore full of sympathy or something else. She nodded undcrstnndlngly ns sho resumed reading. Then camo n great day for Gilbert. What mado tho day great was a, slim letter from a book publisher, and It Invited him to .New 'York for a con - sultntion regarding the booX that was to bo published.

"I know his book will win, ; although I hnve not icndlt. ' "It will win, all right." said the girl. "I have read it, nnd I know it, is good.' ... To herself she added somewhat sadly : "lcs. ho will be a success and then , ho will comobnek and marry that Miss , h tmnn. while I 1 am just a kind of sister. ! The book was a success from the brcnklng sellers of the season. Inside of a month from the time It nppcared ou hale, Gilbert was on his wny to fume, while tho futuro Ipokcd finan cially bright ns well.

Gilbert lnld tho note nsldc and smiled whimsically. Then ho turned a peculiar glnnco on Jerry one she never had no ticed before and invited her for n stioll nlong tho woody path whero he had gono so often in quest of inspiration. They wero gono some time, nnd when they returned both were smiling happily. "I never guessed it," Juiry said as they entered the houso. "Did iou?" "Never," he confessed.
