The jervants brought from the city would jot put up with its remoteness, and as for temporary help, which was all ene could get In this place, It was fceyond speech. I Robert, the millionaire, groaned, and turned to watch the car cross the bridge and make its way toward the house. It came to a standstill Just fceneath him, and he saw Joe lift out two or three traveling bags and then turn to speak to the first of his passengers pas-sengers who alighted. This was a tall )oung man with golden brown hair. Jrhich gleamed In the sunlight as he took off his hat and looked about with Interest He turned to help out a iilddle-aged woman with a round and jumpy figure. Bob MacBeth looked at er idly. Must be the cook-housekeeper and ihe butler Roberta expected, but she tad not told him they were Scots. Robert MacBeth' prided himself on his ibiiity, gained from years of handling jmmigrant labor, of unerringly recognizing recog-nizing nationality, even city or district, dis-trict, at a glance. The woman Was lalking to Joe LIgorIK who evidently aid not quite understand her. He saw the young man gently touch her arm. s though to bid her be quiet, and Ihlmself address Joe. Robert saw that loe nodded and grinned with pleasure, jElimbed back into the front seat and 'composed himself to wait. The man ind the woman came toward the door. Hriiey rang several times, but there 'was no response. He raised himself palnfnlly in his ; chair, rapped loudly with his cane ind called out: "This way!" They turned and came toward him. There was no doubt the dumpy little troman was a Scot Robert MacBeth, io long a resident of this country that he had ceased to think of himself as inything but an American, felt a warm feeling of kinship, strong as only clannish Scots and possibly the equally clannish Jews can feel at the sight of another of their race in a strange land. She was typical, this little woman. A. good-looking woman at that! But irhat clothes ! He found himself eager to near her speak. He knew beforehand before-hand she would have a glorious burr, ind maybe something of a dialect. It ras music to his ears. After all these rears of Americanization, Robert MacBeth Mac-Beth still thrilled to bagpipes, or the burr in a Scot's voice. He glanced at the man to whom she Ms talking, and whistled, low. JSel-flom JSel-flom had he seen such a handsome man. The fellow was striking, both s to his height, the clear-cut beauty ef his features and his fine head with Its brown hair, gleaming gold in the unlight. Under his broad brows his brown eyes, large and finely formed, looked out with a curious directness. Oh, this man will never do ! Robert aid to himself decidedly. Have all the maids neglecting their work to look at him. . ,. The woman came forward with a Quick, decided step. She planted herself her-self solidly on her feet as she walked. as though each small plump foot was flatlron. Robert had an odd feeling of liking for her.

Robert, his eyes still on her said softly: "Aggy!" Then he smiled. "It's like you. coming this way without warning.' He laughed. "Why, I thought you were the new cook or the housekeeper." , Aggy smiled. It was a slow and reluctant smile, but it was pleasant. "So did your lady-daughter, who passed us on the road here. She told yon driver that you were at home and. would see us." "You didn't tell her" "Guld Sakes! No! I didn't tell her anything about who I was." She looked at him again. "Rob, is it no convenient? You need not stand on ceremony with me." AH the old protective feeling that he, as elder brother, used to feel for "wee Aggy" came over Rob MacBeth. He forgot the years they had lost somewhere, somehow. He forgot that this, was a middle-aged, strange worn- But She Had Not Told Were Scots. Him They an, almost as old now as the mother they had lost so many years ago. He forgot that Tie was a middle-aged man with a grown daughter and a million or two. He saw himself once more a strong young man leaving Scotland, while a red-haired girl clung to him and cried: "Oh, Rob, I cannot let you go! What'll I do withoot ye?" He reached out his 'hand and said : "Aggy, I'm glad to see you. Did I not tell you that? Except for Roberta, there's nobody left but you and me." The little woman stooped over, smoothed his hair and kissed him. "Dear Rob," she murmured. He Indicated a chair beside him and she sat down. "What brought you, Aggy," he asked her, reverting unconsciously to tne almost appalling directness or tne true Scot, "and who's that?" He indicated in-dicated Sir George, who was standing at the edge of the terrace and looking off toward the river. ' . "That's Sir Geordie," said his sister quietly. "Whatl" roared Bob MacBeth. "Sir George Sandison," explained Aggy, with a self-conscious smile that just escapedJeing a smirk. "I might have known it," said Rob MacBeth slowly. ''I might have remembered re-membered those-good looks. He's the same handsome devil that his father was before him. By the way, what's become of Sir Steenie? Drunk himself to death r "Yes," said Aggy solemnly, "just that" "Well," and her brother gave her a puzzled look, "what's Sir George doing here?" "I Invited him," answered Aggy, demurely. de-murely. "Have you room or shall I send him back to the town for the night?" Her brother gave her a quick look. "What's it mean?" ; "Nothing." said Aggy stubbornly. "It's but natural." Famous Statuary Hall Justin Smith Morrill suggested the plan of putting statues In the Capitol of prominent men from each state. The National Statuary hall, semicircular semicircu-lar In shape and designed by Latrobe, after a Greek theater, is one of the most beautiful rooms of the CapltoL On the north side it has a colonnade of Potomac marble with white capitals, capi-tals, and a screen of similar columns on the south side supports a noble arch. The domed celling, decorated after that of the Roman Pantheon, springs 57 feet to a cupola by which the room Is lighted. Above the door leading from the rotunda Is Franzonl's historical clock. This room was the hall of representatives, and was the forum of debates by Webster, Clay. Adams, Calhoun and others whose names are Indelibly associated with the history of congress. In 1S64 at let suggestion of Senator Morrill of "Good G d 1" exclaimed her brother, "Is anything wrong with him? Are yon still his nurse?" Aggy looked at him scornfully and yet a little proudly. "I am not, and, have not been for many a year. Tm his stepmother." "What!" roared the owner of the Island, who had been thlnklnz how best he could in a modest way Introduce Intro-duce to his poor, but proud, sister the great story of his success, his millions. "Yes," said his sister, with a matter-of-fact calmness that deceived her brother, and then proceeded to spike all his guns by her declaration : "I'm Lady Sandison. of Sandlsbrae." She kept her eyes away from her brother, until she thought he had digested di-gested this and then added: "I'm traveling, with my stepson. Sir Geor-dle. Geor-dle. We thought we'd Jlst drop In and see you on our way." The master of the Island stared back at his sister. There was a consider able pause during which Robert thought hard before he asked : "How did you manage It Aggy?" Lady Sandison looked at him with quiet dignity. "It's a long story, but It'll be told In time, Rob. Are we Invited to bide the night, or am I to tell the taxi-man to wait?" "Here. Joe," called MacBeth, "put the bags in the hall. ' Open the door yourself. There are no servants In the house. Get the trunks up from the station tonight." "Sure-a, alia richt," Joe responded blithely, and carried the bags toward the door. Lady Sandison waved her hand, and summoned her stepson imperatively. He started toward them. "Is he no beautiful?" asked Aggy proudly. MacBeth groaned. "Handsome Is as handsome does," he countered. "Aye," agreed Lady Sandison, "In the same way that beauty is only skin deep, and Guld kens that's deep enough. Sir Geordie, this is my brother, Rob." "How are you. Mr. MacBeth?" Sir George asked quickly. "Can I do any thing?" he continued as Rob MacBeth shifted uneasily in his chair and groaned with pain at even that slight movement. "Sir George, you're welcome to my house and everything In It." MacBeth paused, thinking with a little awe of the changes time brings. The last time he had seen this man was as tiny boy, in Aggy's arms. With a start he continued cordially: "I'm unable to do the honors. . My daughter Is but and there are no servants, temporarily. Will you go In and make yourself at home? You will find plenty to smoke and drink in the library. My sister has something to say to me before I ask you to help me in." "Thanks," Sir George said, hesitating hesitat-ing a little. "Frightfully good of you, I'm sure. I'll leave you to talk ovet things, but remember I'm within call If you need a strong arm." He nodded to Aggy and went toward the doorway, door-way, inwardly amused and puzzled at this country that could make a millionaire of Rob MacBeth and yet leave that millionaire alone and serv-antless serv-antless on his Island. But he knew he was going to 'like' MacBeth. He was as fine and simple in his way as good old Aggy. Rob MacBeth gave a long sigh, as Sir George disappeared. "Out with It, Aggy," he said quietly, turning on his sister. "I remember you of old. You never made a trip all the way from Sandisbrae to this Island, without wanting something. What is it?" "It's this way, Rob," began his sister. e As Aggy laid frankly before him the nrgent reasons for her visit, Robert MacBeth's daughter sat. In the cabin at Indian Lodge some ten miles way. The Lodge was an old Pennsylvania stone house on the highway between New York and Philadelphia, lately restored re-stored and operated as an inn. Roberta MacBeth had often dined here with her father when servants had failed them at home, for the Lodge was famous throughout the county for its food, but this was her first visit without him. Indeed, so short a time was it since Roberta had left school that this was the first time she had ever dined quite alone with a young man. She was determined, however, to keep that fact to herself. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Senator Morrill's Idea Vermont (then a member of the house) the room was set apart as a National Statuary hall, to which each state might send the statues of two of its distinguished citizens.
