She her good qualities and oftentimes their predominating influence cleared her character from any haze of irrectitude. She was a wealthy specimen of the mushroom genera, her husband, in the twenty-fiv- e years of their yoked existence, having risen from a small clerkship to the position of controlling partner in a large manufacturing firm. In such circumstances she maintained the household par excellence In the little village of Crossley, and became at the same time the dominant strain in the matronly chorus of the village societies. Because she went about with Cecil Travers was no criterion from which to judge evilly. Travers was nothing but a boy, in his teens yet, while Mrs. Curr was passing on toward the half century age post. She was indiscreet. Even her husband, big, blufl, happy T. J. Carr, admitted that. He rather liked it. It gave a touch of superiority to convention that gratified ids rancor toward society. For T. Judson despised all the functions and formalities of fashionable people. lie hadnt been used to it for thirty When he broke in at last, years. largely through the maneuvers of his wife, it seemed too late to learn new tricks. Mrs. T. J. grasped them, however. She liked society, especially young people. She liked the male sex, especially Travers. The boy came from an aristocratic family, and after the usual pantperftl life, he was sent to Yalard college at Crossley. Ills acquaintance with Mrs. Carr dated from a garden party at the Brices. lie never analyzed his liking for her, such is not a young mans way, but he plunged into a series of social eruptions at her heels and the town talked. The woman was very attractive and she liked a mans homage. More seasoned men read her character easily, but Cecil was unsophisticated to a degree. She led him on, with what motive the Grundians failed to say, though the general opinion prevailed that it was for no good to the hoy. Mrs. Carr loved her husband. Business kept him away for weeks at a time. The woman had to be amused ; Travers pleased her. Travers got the Such was the logic of her post. friends. The rare days had come and the gardens at High Crest, the Carr place, were a galaxy of roses, the various shades and hues meeting in a riot of color about an artistic sun-dia- l. A woman half reclined against Its marble base, the soft turf affording a cool conch for the graceful form. It was evening and she awaited some one. Her face was pensive, yet the line of resolution about the chin seemed new-borand of a sturdy character. Her husband had just left her to be gone a month. She had let him go without emotion, the excitement of a great love in her heart. She had wanted Judson to get away quickly; now that he was gone she almost wished him back. The line of resolution paled. A step on the gravel ! The line came back, its imprint deeper than before. Cecil," her voice was caressing, I knew that you would come. His beardless face, foreshadowed with a coming manliness, brightened. Didnt I promise? She arose as he held out Yes. No pressure was there. his hand.

She looked at him suddenly and What a dear boy you are! smiled. a little. Was it embarblushed lie rassment or did he notice a deeper tone, a warmer note, almost of passion in the woman's voice?

He had never noticed the long lashes before, the beautiful curve of the eyebrows, the regularity of her profile. With a suddenness it all came to him. Unconsciously he slid his hand toward hers. And she grasped it cruelly. I'm sorry, he said, and he felt his voice coming deeper than ever before a man's voice. Of course, you could not know how lonely it has been for me." She passed a web of lace before her eyes. Selfish one that I am, I never thought, I No, no, you have done so much for me. What happy days we have passed together. Since you came into my life Ive been happier, but Ive had longings. And I, he bent forward, eagerly. Intuitively words came. Was the passion of some long dead ancestor incarnate in him? Longings that I could not explain, he went on. Not pains, not aches, but I cant describe them. Its the way I felt. toward my mother and yet different. You felt toward your mother? Is she dead? "She died when I was six. I remember her though I scarcely knew her. Mrs. Carr grasped his other hand. That feeling toward your mother was Yes?" He leaned so close that his lips almost brushed her hair. love. They did touch it. Her lids were lowered, but she knew. Could could you love " He was on his knees at her feet In a moment.

The sudden joy of his acknowledged love had put her in a realm of happiness. As the meaning of 1:1s last words came to her, she drew herself up and pulled her hands from his.

Cecil, louder as he reached the corner of the house. Cecil, she shouted, but he turned from sight and fled over the lawn into the twilight shadows. Little Call for Work of Strolling Tinker put the finishing to the occupation of the strolling tinker or tinsmith. Nobody nowadays would bother to patch up a teakettle or put a new leg on a black castiron pot. Soldering Is unknown In the homes of the poor and lowly, and the leaking teapot no longer awaits the tinker It hikes to the dump. When the cover of the coffee pot breaks away from the hinges now, It is allowed to remain away, and when the wash boiler gives out, the eldest son may use It for a bass drum, or fill it with loam and plant geraniums in It. No longer is the broken handle of the earthen teapot restored to its former place of usefulness by the application of the gray cement, nor is the broken griddle held together by sheet Iron straps skillfully riveted in. Thus has human society lost one of its most picturesque and romantic characters, the strolling tinker. Thus has the moral atmosphere been robbed of Its choicest perfume and the tone of human society been lowered. No poems have been written, no eulogies delivered, and no monument raised to the tinker, but he Is enshrined In the hearts of men and women whose parents in the days gone by used to threaten them with the tinker when they were unruly.
