UGENIA HAY dropped a lump of butter into the bowl of creamy curd, added salt and a dash of paprika, and lastly poured in all the cream off the morning’s milk. She tasted critically. 1t was good, very good. With swift movements she molded the pot-cheese into two balls, wrapped one of them in paraffiin paper and laid it upon an old-fashioned blue plate and threw a fringed doily over the whole. | I don’t care if it is only pot-cheese, |it’s the best I can offer, and 1'm going |to take it to her,” she sald to herself. She took her shawl from the nail {behind the Kkitchen door and threw it over her little gray head. Then | quickly, lest her courage fail her, she went ot of the back door of her tiny, old, gray house and across the street {to 'the back door of the big, new, |golden house whose many windows canght the morning sunlight. She knocked timidly and an elderly woman in a large pinafore opened the door, “Good morning o'z housekeeper, —I've brought McVane a nia said.

All at_once her offering seemed in- | | describably humble and trivial. To | present pot-cheese to a woman who was used to Parma violets and Ameri- can Beauty roses! She wished she had not come. What a fool she was! Mrs. MacVane would think it strange that she, an almost complete stranger, |should dare offer her anything so |absurd as pot-cheese. “What is it?” the invalid asked. “Set it down here on the table, please, And then take that chair. I am sure vou will find it comfortable.” “I can't stay,” Eugenia murmured hastily. “I—I've got to go right back.” The long, slim fingers lifted the doily, the biue eyes studied the paraf- fin wraped ball curiously. Bugenia shook with embarrassment. “It's only pot-cheese,” she tried to | explain. T made it myself, it's warm | vet—I wanted to bring you some- thing.” Mrs. MacVane smiled. ‘It looks very nice, very much.” She held out her hand. Eugenia took it, looked into the blue eyes and escaped. Yes! She felt that it was escape. She did not breathe freely b To!
