It was the most owtlestan
sumlng of suburban tojvm
tie excuse for existing save that the
land was cheap, lots of a quarter of
an acre selling for a hundred dollars
each, and the owner of the tract In
dined to encourage and op-operat«
with purchasers and even assist them
to make a start In the^way of building*
A poor, but thrifty class represented
the settlers anckwrbUe their ambitious
were humble, from the start they took
a commendable pride In their town
and Its progress. Most of the houses
were set far back on the lot and co«*r. „
prised only, two roow* the Idea being, t|)r, govern met of his
to build .on to this* when they could
save up the money to accomplish It.
'•i A cheery, companionable group, th#
community ' Interest, was strong aAd
each sought to h#p tjje other, and
illy the. slightest, detail In, the
natural!.
lives of the people was made a Blatter
of general moment./ Tbtls when,Mrs.
Adele Bank son, a young widow with
one child, bought,* ,fat and bi#It the
rear end of her bouse, kitchen anjl
bedroom -only, nelghhbor* helped <*§•
the cellar sivd spared some fruit tree
sprouts and bushes to Wart the lot In
the way of greenery aad shade.
Then when n shy, retiring young
bachelor, Richard Glade, purchased the
adjoining lot, the men folks derided his
Malm that maybe some day his unmgr*
might
pSMwl^ vl.">
of
rled sister, a school teachflj,
come to IIvf wltii him.
"Cast you$ eyes about, Glade, and
you will And about as healthy, hi
some and Industrious a-lot of gtvht
women among us Just eager to start
In life with a marriage mate and help
Win build up a happy home,**
But Richard only smiled and shook
his head unresponslvely, declaring
that his homeliness, age and timidity
as to the opposite sex precluded any
Idea of their encouraging him.,
"Oh, well, we shall expect you to
keep your eye on that pretty widow,
Mrs. Bankson," observed a bystander.
"Being neighbors, you are botfhd to
get well acquainted In time, and she
Is certainly a woman to respect and
admire."
A seed thought was Implanted In
Glade's mind and although he did not
nurse It the sera* continued to expand.
He liked the^fitie child of the widow
Immensely. She was very fond of him
and - ona dsy when- she called him
"papa" Glade blushed like a bashful
schoolboy and hopqtf no casual passer-
by had overheard It;
Glade had built the front of hi*
house first. That Is, there was quite a
grand porch, two parlors, and a library
which he temporarily used as a sleep-
ing chamber. He was rather refined
1n his aesthetic tastes and thought
more of his books and curios, and some
old family heirlooms of. portralta and
furniture than he did of home com-
forts. He had run up a frail but
weatherproof shack connected with the
main structure by a door and here he
did some desultory cooking, at break-'
fast time a cup of coffee and a cereal, j
and bought lunch and dinner In the
city where he worked.
There were soina-^dellghtful half |
Saturdays when he pottered around his
fair neighbor's grounds putting thing? '
In order and earning the most appetlz^ ;
Jng meal of the week. Then on Sun-1
day he invariably accompanied Mrs. i
Bankson and little Editha to the town |
hall of the settlement, where there was
a church service In the morning.
Almost before he knew It Glade was
In love with Adele Bankson and she j
with him. They planned what they j
would, do without advising any out- >
sldegrexcept Judge Perrln, who bad
become the leading spirit in the com- j
munity. They wjere to go to the city,
get married quietly and Adele was
to sell her little start of a home and
add her household belongings to those
In the more commodious home of
Glade. " /"
There was a great stir In the com-
munity when all this was known, and
Glade, his wife and little Editha were
enjoying a week vacation at a distance.
Judge Perrin was busy thoso days.
There bad appeared at the town a
strange old gentleman, announcing
himself as an unci* <*lad& He had
not seen his nephew for some years,
had a little money, ifras pleased with
what he heard of Glade,

the Judge what they woald do to give

a surprise when they returned to the
domestic hearth.
Then all the people of the town wore
taken Into the plot to celebrate the
home-coming of Adele and Olade. The
Innocent excltemeht and Joy of these
humble folk was fairly pathetic. Ev-
erybody contributed in time or money

What they did was to move the lit-
