CHAPTER Vm
Copyright, 1918, Star Company
Elizabeth took it for granted that
John Butler bowed in acknowledg
ment of Amos Chapin's introduction,
but she did not look at him to make
sure. She heard him take a step for
ward to pull her chair out from the
table for her, but she sat down hast
ily. before he could reach her.
There was an awkward silence
after the host had made the usual
comments on the weather. Eliza
beth felt it incumbent upon her to
say something. This nervous man
must not feel that he had come
into a family of cold, stiff New Eng
landers.
"I hope," she said, forcing her
self to glance at the person she ad
dressed, "that you had a pleasant
journey." *
A slight expression of surprise
crorsed the stranger's face and Eliz
abeth realized that a girl in the sta
tion she was supposed to occupy
would hardly have spoken in this
way to a man whom she had just
met ah a lodger in her cousin's home.
"Thanks; I had a pleasant enough
journey," Butler repoined. "But I
never sleep well on the cars, so I
found it rather tedious."
Another silence. This time Butler
broke it.
"Where do you live. Miss Moore?
Mrs. Chapin said, T think, that you
r. re visiting her, but that you do not
live here."
"Xo, I do not live here," she said
slowly, "although I have been here

a child." .
Why did not somebody come to
her assistance and change the sub
ject before another embarrassing
question could be asked?
Bui she need not have feared a
repetition of the inquiry just then.
Butler said no more except in reply
to a query as to whether he toolf
sugar and cream in his coffee, or
desired more butter.
Supper over, he pushed back his
chair when Amos rose and followed
him out upon the veranda, while
Elizabeth went into the kitchen with
Mrs. Chapin to help wash the dishes,
i A Remembrance
A half hour later the matron and
her companion came out upon the
veranda. The sun had set and there
was a golden glow over everything.
As at supper, when Elizabeth ap
peared Butler stood up.
"Where will you sit?" he asked,
addressing both women. "Can X get
your chairs for you?"
"Oh, thank you," Mrs. Chapin re
plied with a kindly smile, "but we
are used to waiting on ourselves."
Elizabeth dropped down upon the
top step, "I will sit here, thank
you," she said.
Butler seated himself on the
other end of the step, and sat re
garding her intently, but not rudely.
"Excuse me, "Miss Moore," he
begged, "but I have been trying ever
since I met you at supper to remem
ber of whom you remind me. And
I cannot remember."
"Whom do I resemble. Cousin
Martha?" the girl asked quickly,
turning to Mrs. Chapin, who sat be
hind her. "Am I like my father or
my mother?"
"Well," the other woman an
swered slowly, hestitatingl.v, as if
feeling her way, "I can't just rightly
say, my dear, who you resemble."
Why had Mrs. Chapin said "who"
instead of "whom," thus marking the
difference in her language and that
of her pretended cousin? But, of
course, this stranger might not no
tice the slip, and, if he did, would
probably think the difference in
speech perfectly natural. Mrs.
Chapin was a country woman; her
young protege, a city girl.
"Well," Elizabeth went on, deter
mined to conceal her inward trepi
dation. "perhaps I look like my
mother. I do not remember my
father. But you do. Cousin Martha.
Am I like him?"
"Perhaps you are. Dearie," Mrs.
Chapin admitted.
"I could hardly have known either
of them,*' John Butler reminded
Elizabeth, smilingly. Then, after a
moment, he repeated the question
he asked at supper.
"Where did you say you came
from?"
"I was born in Boston." Elizabeth
replied evasively. "Later I was taken
to Pennsylvania."
Amos Is Gruff
This statement was perfectly true,
she reminded her protesting con
science. As a child, she had spent
a whole month in Philadelphia with
a relative of her mother's.
"But where do you live now?"
the young man persisted.
To Elizabeth's relief, Amos Cha
pin came to her rescue.
"Away oft in Mauch Chunk," he
said tersely. "What is your reason
for asking?"
"Why—why—l really don't know
just why I did ask, Butler stam
mered.
Elizabeth moved uneasily. Why
j need Amos speak so gruffly? It
j was plain that he did not care for
: the young fellow who had come
! here to teach him, an older man,
! about scientific farming. Yet. as his
• reply made it improbable that she
| would he annoyed again by awk
ward questions as to where she
lived, Elizabeth was, on the whole,
glad that the farmer had made this
statement and that she had not been
forced to make it herself.
"Perhaps," John Butler said mus
ingly to her a few minutes later,
"I asked where you came from to
try to trace the resemblance I re
| ferred to. But I know nobody in
Maueh Chunk, or in that part of
Pennsylvania; so whatever I saw in
your face was doubtless just a chance
Besemblance to someone X have met
elsewhere."
"Chance resemblances are curi
ous." Elizabeth observed. "At—at
school I knew two girls who were
I much alike, yet were not related
I at all."
j She had almost said "at college"
instead of "at school." That might
have been a blunder, giving rise to
wonder as to how It happened that
pla.in Martha Chapin's niece was a
college graduate.

Advice to the Lovelorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX
IT WON'T DO
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I recently met a young gentleman j
through flirtation.
I was very much infatuated with
his personality, and would like to |
know how I could further our ac- i
quuintance.
You have put yourself in a dan
gerous position. You say you are |
infatuated with this man. Don't see
him again, and don't meet any more
| men in this way. You are throwing
yourself away. You don't know one
thing about the man, except that you
like his looks. He may be a very
dangerous character. Won't you be
lieve me and guard yourself a little
better?
CHEERING A LONELY SOLDIER
'DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I am eighteen and correspond |
with a cousin of mine in the army, i
He is six years my senior. While I
on a visit he told me my letters j
had interested a friend who is in ■
the same camp. He asked my
cousin if he would please ask me '
if I would like to correspond with
him also.
I would like to know if it Is proper '
for me to write to him.
F. C. I
This is an unusual situation which >
the war i s making usual. The high i
commanders have made us all recog- I
nixe how important ,it is that our I
soldier lads receive -cheerful happy i
letters from home. So it seems to i
no that for you to vrite to your i
cousin's friend will be a nice little 1
bit of war work. Don't look on this '
boy as a possible lover or sweet- i
heart. Don't write him love letters. !
Instead adopt him as another cousin ' i

Had Knitting Needles
Made of Chop Sticks
Honolulu, Hawaii.—Chop sticks
were meant to feed the men of the
Oriental races, but a little Chinese
girl, somewhat Americanized, a pub
j lie school attendant, who has heard
I all about the little Belgian sufferers
I and the need to give American sol
| diers everything they should have
while in France, has decided that
chop sticks make perfectly good
knitting needles.
The youngster wanted to buy a
Thrift Stamp, but had no money.
Then she decided to knit something,
l.ut had no knitting needles. So she
comrr)andeered a pair of chop sticks
from her mother's kitchen and be
gan to knit with colored string. Her
first effort was hardly a strategic
success, but when she had finished
it she took it to Thrift Stamp head
quarters, where a sympathfzing
woman purchased it for a quarter.
With the quarter the little Chinese
maid purchased her first Thrift
Stamp. Now she is knitting with
real wool and with real needles.
