The Man Who Grew Vegetable Marrows. 1 told Caroline at lunch time that I should be dining at Fernly. She ex- no objection—on the con Excellent,” she said. “You'll hear all about it. By the way, what is the trouble with Ralph?" “With Ralph?” I “there isn't any.” “Then why is he staying at the Three Boars instead of at Fernly Park?” I did not for a minute question Caroline’s statement that Ralph Paton was staying at the local inn. That Caroline said so was enough for me. s vd told me he was in Lon- 1 said. In the surprise of the moment I departed from my valuable rule of never parting with information. Oh!” said Caroline. I could see her nose twitching as she worked on this ‘He arrived at the Three Boars yesterday morning.” she said. “And he’s still there. Last night he was out with a girl.” | That did not surprise me in the |least. Ralph, I should say, is out { with a girl most nights of his life. But | T did rather wonder that he chose to indulge in the pastime in King's | Abbot instead of in the gay metropolis. “One of the barmaids?” I asked. \o. That's just it. He went out her.

An innocent remark | |about our new neighbor created a | diversion. The house next door, The Larches, | | has recently been taken by a stranger. | To Caroline’s extreme annoyance, she | | has not been able to find out any | thing about him, except that he is a foreigner. The Intelligence Corps has | proved a broken reed. Presumably the man has milk and vegetables and | Joints of meat and occasional whitings !just like everybody else, but none of | the people who make it their business to supply these things seem to have acquired any information. His name, apparent is Mr. Porrott—a name which conveys an odd feeling of un- reality. The one thing we do know |about him is that he is interested in | the growing of vegetable marrows. But that is certainly not the sort of information that Caroline is after. She wants to know where he comes from, what he does, whether he is married, what his wife was, or is, like, whether he has children, what his mother’s maiden name was—and s0 on. Somebody very like Caroline must have invented the questions on passports, T think. “My dear Caroline,” I said, “there's no doubt at all about what the man’s profession has been. He's a retired hairdresser. Look at that mustache of his.” Caroline dissented. She sald that it lhe man was a hairdresser he would huve wavy hair—not straight. Al hairdressers did. I cited several hairdressers person ally known to me who had ltrll‘hl hair, but Caroline refused to be con- vinced. “I can't make him out at all" she | said in an aggrieved voice. “I bor- rowed some garden tools the other day, and he was most polite, but I couldn’t get anything out of him. I asked him point blank at last whether he was a Frenchman, and he said he wasn't—:nd somehow I didn’t like to ask him any ‘more.” 1 began to be more interested in our mysterious neighbor. A man who is capable of shutting up Caroline and sending her, like the Queen of Sheba, empty away must be something of a personalif “I believe,” said Caroline, Bot one those new 1 saw a meditated loan and the op- portunity of further questioning gleaming from her eve.

His naivete, his honest outlook, the pleasure of de- lighting and surprising him by my superior gifts—all these I miss more than I can tell you.” ‘He died?” I asked sympathetically. Not so.

It was a foolish question that I put to you there, for, see you, my friend of whom I spoke was A& young man, a man who thought all women good, and most of them beau- tiful.

Indeed,” said the little man, cheer- fully, “this has not been a wasted morning. I have made the acquain- tance of & man who in some ways re- sembles my faroff friend. By the way, I shoyld like to ask you a ques- tion. You doubtless know every one in this tiny village. Who is the young man with the very dark hair and eyes, and the handsome face? He walks with his head flung back, and an easy smile on his lips? The description left me in no doubt. “‘That must be Capt.

But he is the son—adopted son, rather—of Mr. Ackroyd of Fernly My neighbor made a slight gesture of impatience. “Of course, I should have guessed. Mr. Ackroyd spoke of him many times."” “You know Mr. Ackroyd?” I sald, slightly surprised. ‘My Ackroyd knew me in London— when I was at work there. I have asked him to say nothing of my pro- fession down here.” “I see,” I said, rather amused by this patent snobbery, as I thought it. But the little man went on with an almost grandiloquent smirk. “‘One prefers to remain incognito. I am not anxious for notoriety. I have not even troubled to correct the local version of my nam Indeed,” I sald, not knowing quite what to say “Capt. Ralph Paton,” mused Mr. Porrott. “And so he is engaged to Mr. Ackroyd's niece, the charming Miss Flora. ‘“Who told you so?” I asked, very much surprised. “Mr. Ackroyd.

He is very pleased about it—has long desired that such a thing should come to pass, or so I understood from him. I even believe that he brought some pressure to bear upon the young man. That is never wise. A young man should marry to please himself—not to please a stepfather from whom he has expectations. My ideas were completely upset. I could not' kée ‘Ackroyd taking a hair- dresser. into his confldence, and dis- cussing the marriage of his niece and step&on with hlm. Ackroyd extends a 1 patronage to the lower orders, but he has a very great sense of his own dignity. I began to think that busily extermiriating dandelion roots when a shout of warning sounded from close by and a heavy body whizzed by my ear and fell at my feet with a repellant squelch. It was a vegetable marrow! 1 looked up angrily. Over the wall, to my left, there appeared a face. An egg-shaped head, partially covered with ‘suspiciously black hair, two im- mense mustaches, and a pair of watchful eyes. It was our mysterious neighbor, Mr. Porrott. He broke at once apologies. “I demand of you a thousand pardons, monsfeur. I am without de- fense. For some months now I culti- vate the marrows. This morning suddenly I enrage myself with these marrows. I send them to promenade themselves—alas! not only mentally but physically. I seize the biggest. I hurl him over the wall. Monsieur, I am ashamed. I prostrate myself.” Before such profuse apologies, my anger was forced to melt. After all, the wretched vegetable hadn’t hit me. But 1 sincerely hoped that throwing large vegetables over walls was not our new friend’s hobby. Such a habit could hardly endear him to us as a neighbor. The strange little man seemed to read my thought he exclaimed. ‘Do not disquiet yourself. It is not with me a habit. ~But can you figure to your- self, monsieur, that & man may work toward a certain object, K and tofl to attain a certain kind of leisure and occupation, and then find that, after all, he yearns for the old busy days, and the old occupations that he thought himself so glad to leave?” “Yes,” I said slowly. “I fancy that that is a common enough occurrence. | T myself am perhaps an instance. A vear ago I came into a legacy—enough into fluent Porrott couldn't be a hairdresser after all. To hide my confusion, I said the first thing that came into my head. “What made you notice Ralph Pa- ton?” His good looks 'No; not that alone—though he is unusually good-looking for an English- man—what your lady novelists would call a Greek god. No; there was something about that young man that I did not understand.” He said the last sentence in a musing tone of voice which made an indefinable impression upon me. It was as though he was summing up the boy by the light of some inner knowledge that I did not share. It was that impression that was left with me, for at that moment my sis- ter's voice called me from the house. I went in. Caroline had her hat on, and had evidently just come in from the village. She began wihout pre- amble, “I met Mr. Ackroyd.”* “Yes?” T sald. “I stopped him, of course, but he seemed in a great hurry, and anxious to get away.” T have no doubt but that that was the case. He would feel toward Caro- line much as he had felt toward Miss Ganett earlier in the day-—perhaps more so. Caroline is less easy to shake off. “I asked him at once about Ralph. He was absolutely astonished. ad no idea the boy was down here, He actually sald he thought I must have A mistake! “He ought to hlvo known you better.” “Then he went on to tell me that Ralph and Flora are engaged.” “I know that, too,” I interrupted, with modest pride. “Who told you?” “Our new neighbor.” to enable me to realize a dream.
