In 1835 or 1840, had come out of County Limerick or County Kilkenny or out of Scotland or the Khlnelnnd (o mold this new country ln their strong hairy hands. Dlrk listened to the talk of the Noon club, looking about him carefully, ap pralsingly. The president of an advertising ad-vertising firm lunching with banker; bond salesman talking to a rare book collector; a packer seated at a small table with Horatio Craft. thesculptor. Two years and Dirk hud learned to "grab the Century" in order to save an hour or so of time between Chicago and New York. Peel said it was a pleasure to fit a coat to his broad, flat tapering back, and trousers to his strong sturdy legs. His color, inherited inher-ited from his red-cheeked Dutch ancestors an-cestors brought up In the fresh sea-laden sea-laden air of the Holland flats, was tine and clear. Sometimes Sellna, in pnre sensuous delight, passed her gnarled, work-worn hand over his shoulders and down his fine, strong, straight back. He had been abroad twice. He learned to call It "running over to Europe for a few days." It had all come about In a scant two years, as Is the theatrical way in which life speeds In America. Sellna was a little bewildered now at this new Dlrk whose life was so full without her. Sometimes she did not see him for two weeks, or three. He sent her gifts which she smoothed and touched delightedly and put away; fine soft silken things, hand-made which she could not wear. The habit of years was too strong upon her. Though she had always been a woman of dainty habits and fastidious tastes the grlud of her early married life had left its Indelible mark. Sun and wind and rain and the cold and heat of the open prairie had wreaked their vengeanceim herflotrtlug of them. Her kin was tanned, weather-beaten; her hair rough and dry. Her eyes, in that frame, startled you by their unexpect edness, they were so calm, so serene, yet so alive. They were the beautiful eyes of a wise young girl ln the face of a middle-aged woman. Life was till so fresh to her. There was about her something arresting, something compelling. You felt it. "I don't see how you do it!" Julie Arnold complained one day as Sellna was paying her one of her rare visits ln town. "Your eyes are as bright as a baby's and mine look like dead oyrters." They were up In Julie's dressing room in the new house on the north side the new house that was now the old house. Julie was massaging. Her eyes had an absent look. Suddenly: "Listen, Sellna. Dirk and Paula are together too much. People are talking." "Talklngr The smile faded from Seltna'a face. "Goodness knows I'm not strait laced. You can't be ln this day and age - If I had ever thought I'd live to see the time when Well, since the war of course anything'! all right, seems. But Paula has no sense.

His salary's thousands, but she's used to millions. Well P "They were boy . and girl together," Sellna interrupted, feebly. "They're not any more. Don't be lllj. Sellna. You're not as young as that- No. she was not as young as that. When Dirk neit paid one of his rare visits to the farm she called him into her bedroom the cool, dim shabby bedroom with the old black walnut bed ln which she Jiad lain as I'ervus De- Jong's bride jJore than thirty years ago.' 8he looked somehow girlish ln the dim light, her great soft eyes gating gat-ing up at him. "Dlrk, sit down here at the side of my bed the way you used to." "I'm dead tired. Mother. Twenty-seven Twenty-seven holes of golf before I came out." "I know. You ache all over a nice kind of ache.
