Only youre going to live there before we are married, said Joan with That might seem embarrassment funny." We dont have to tell every agent our plans, Andrew assured her. we 'when have definitely settled 'ftud on the apartment we can explain matters and there won't be anything surprising about it. It was late winter and Andrew and Joan did not intend to be married un-tithe following autumn. Meantime Ihey had decided that they ought to select their apartment now while they would have a wider selection than in the autumn. As a matter of economy Andrew would make ids bachelor home, here until autumn, cooking ids own breakfasts by way of economy. The apartment that they finally ugreud upon was two flights up in a house without an eievator. It was a back apartment, with two windows looking out on a rather pleasant backyard and with the rest of the windows on a court. The rent was oli. very little for these days even had less than Joan and Andrew planned in their most frugal moments'.

Of course there were times when the spring was backward.

But then after a time 'Tire-w- arm breezes would come and whisper tc her,, and the earth would begin to feel soft and warm and the buds on the trees would become so excited they would feel as though they would like to burst. And under the leaves the violets would begin to open their purple-blu- e eyes, nnd the trailing arbutus would awaken and wonder when the children were coming to the woods to find them. Then the spring would not fee! shy any longer. But as yet the spring had not felt very much like awakening. The soft silvery gray pussy willow's had shown the world that spring was on the way.

They said they wanted to wear their nw spring clothes and that they were tired of their old winter ones. But the Siring thought that was rather vain of the people to make such speeches. To be sure, she understood a little bit, for there is no one who cares more about wearing lovely garments in the springtime than the spring herself. Yet she wanted excuses to be lazy a little longer. Besides Old Man Winter had been telling her a story and lie bad made his story longer than usual. It had been a most exciting story, too all about snow storms that came ' late In tlie season 'when no one expected them and even blizzards nnd wild wind storms nnd Old Man Winter began, toward the end, to' illustrate his story not by pictures but by actual happenings. So 'it was perfectly true that the spring had been backward. And then, all of a sudden, who should come along hut a sultry young creature named Mugginess and lie had talked to spring about bis lazy feelings nnd how lie never felt very well. In fact, be said be had never felt really well in all bis life. Well, then the people did complain.
