'.'Don't bother about me, Mr. I'elerV'
protected Evnlyn. an she waved u car
farewell and returned te her bench. Hut

isn't It. UebV" rhe asked the Airedale
bcilderher.
The deg cocked hi head en one side
and barked nhnrply. Then he jumped
dewn and ran frantically up hnd down
the. yard, clesa te the fence. 'Tunny
hew he does that every time I mention
his name I" murmured fivnlyn. thought
fully, "but he Is the dearest thins, nnd
he's all my own unless soma one cemeV
along and claims him ; but no ene could
need him niore than I de, could they,
BebsyV" The terrier came bounding te
put bis bead In her lap nnd caress her
prttty handsj
Berne ene came whittling down the
path a tall young man, bareheaded,
ren-burned, nthletlc looking, with clear
arty eyes und wcll-bruihetl brown hair.
Ertl.TU bad seen him before somewhere
It was an effort te recall. He was a
itranger in the village.
He looked at Kvalyn, n fleeting
aTanee that took in ull her girlish (meet
DCS9, even the blue of her cyei, and
tha he saw the deg, stepped short, and
tared.
The Airedale enw him at the name
tnetnent. his ears lifted, nnd then one
eceked forward expectantly.
"Beb I" warned Eralyn. putting out
a hand te stay his quivering bedr. Hut
lb was tee late j in that fraction of u
aecend, he hnd gained the fwjce in two
bounds and then willed ever the hairier
te fall In a tfcrambliug heap nt the
nan's feet. Then he found his bnlnnct
and circled, leaped nnd barked fran
tically, scattering dust, all ever the nice
clothes of the well-dressed stranger.
"Down!" commanded the man
kindly.
The Airedale leaped nnd thrust a
pink tongue nt his check.
"Down, you ia'-cal!" laughed the
tranger, steeping down te caress the
dusty little gray hurricane. Then he
Uftcd his eyes te Evaljn's and smiled
at her. She was leaning e;er the fence,
itanlc-btikl.cn for fear Heb had found

"Your deg?" asked the lutlcss one.

squaring his shoulders uh he turned
away, but IJvclyn was aure that Ida
