ROBABLY if Will Hamilton's fa-
ther and mother had not died and
left him a battered old homestead just !
before he became engaged to Eliza-
beth Morton, they would have been |
happy.
Elizabeth had a hobby which was
both absorbing and practical. She
made marionettes, wrote little plays |
in which to cast them and built the |
stages and equipment, Then, for a‘
percentage of receipts, she gave en-
tertainments in her own and adjoin-
ing villages. She was more than or-
dinarily clever at this work and the
chardcter she managed to express in |
molding the features of the puppets |
bespoke a future for her genius if
she would but pursue it seriously.
At home she had only the use of her
own room for her work, There was a
large family and she could not usurp
their rights.
Elizabeth and Will Hamilton had
been village children together, high |
school comrades. Later on there
seemed to be no necessity for declar-
ing their love. It was a sort of take-
for-granted alliance and they were
both happy, being young and busy.
But when within two years Will's
parents were taken away, and he |
found himself the scle occupant of an
old-fashioned, gloomy homestead, he
began to feel the need of Ilizabeth.
He spoke to her and they became
really engaged. In their newly
acknowledged relationship they found
much joy—for a time. - And then,
when serious discussion of marriage
ensued, there came the disagreements. |
Will could not quite see why a girl
would not be happy coming into his
old house. How could he know of
her dreams of a far, far different nest,
a’ home in which she could continue
her work, surround herself with all
the things she felt she needed, and,
at the some time, be all that he need- |
ed, sweetheart, wife, homemaker?
One tiny disagreement led to an-
other. They were growing far apart,
and at last they had decided that they
were not meant for each other. At
least, this is what they told each
other.
Will, being the sort of man who
had never made a serious study of
human beings, much less women,
finally had taken Elizabeth at her
word and had seized the golden op-
portunity in his field, that of real
estate, to go South, Before going
he had disposed of the old house that
had been the original bone of con-
tention, and "it was torn down by
housewreckers,
" Weeks passed. Elizabeth was lone-
ly. Will, even though he had met guc-
cess in southern ventures, could not
fill the vacancy left in his life by
the passing of Elizabeth. He was
about to decide gn a bold plan.
A letter from one of his friends
back in the home town put the final
decision on his tentative venture. The |
letter merely remarked that Elizabeth |
was looking a trifle pale, wistful, he
thought,
Nothing had so stimulated Will
since he went South. This carelessly
dropped bit of information about the
girl. he loved gave him hope. He went
about with all his energy trying to
get enough material and workmen to
put up a lovely bungalow in the new
city by the sea.
Everything in the way of lumber
and building mediums had been con-
tracted for, so great was the rush to
this wonderful spot. And Will found
himself telegraphing to a big firm of
“housewreckers whom he knew in a
city near his home town. He asked
them to send him, specifically, doors,
windows, a couple of mantlepieces—
anything they could at once.
In a very short time he had built
a home as nearly like the one he had
fancied Elizabeth wanted as it was
possible for a mere man to reproduce
from fragmentary remarks.
When he was ready he wired to
Elizabeth: “I have a home for us
—a new one with a studio for my |
girl. Will she come.”
Her reply was merely: “Yes—will
write.”
But instead of her going down to
the resort state, Will went back home
to be married, and when they entered
their new home together the first
thing that caught the eye of the
bride was a familiar mantlepiece.
“Why—Will!” she cried.
“Yes, dear. Let me tell you about
it. It is a romance, indeed. I could
get no materials here of any sort, so
I sent back to a housewrecking firm
and asked them to send me what they
could to help out with the building of |
this home. To my wonderful surprise
there were several bits that had been
taken from my own old home. The
people TI sold it to had it torn down by
a wrecker, and he, in turn, sells it
where he can. It is like a fairy tale |
that the doors and mentlepieces of the
very home you didn’t like, but which
I loved dut of childhood association,
should have been picked out to send
here for our new house, Do you
mind?”
Elizabeth tried to tell him that she
had never dreamed of anything so
charming as the home he had built
for her.
“And I shall love it all the more be-
cause it will seem a part of you—
the boy I have always loved.”
“It is compromise, by Fate, of our
silly misunderstandings, dear.”
