When the workmen began putting u the foundations it was even more exciting, because there are so many kinds of foundations. Nobody who looked at the Suttons’ foundations approved of them. “We all gurgled with joy when the uprights marking off the partitions were up and we could see where the rooms were to be.

THE AMERICAN STATE BAR O LAKELAND i We Pay 4 Per Cent Interest “The Suttons' house, in short, was not a building; it was an institution | without which the golf club would have fallen flat. It made it all the! more comfortable that the Suttons | were in Europe and the house was| helpless. “When the Fielding girls came out to spend the day at the club with me f what was more natural than that I should take them over to see the Sut- ton’s house? 1 thought they would enjoy gloating over its deficiencies. We tried the front door, but it was fastened and so was that at the| back. Evidently the carpenters had finished their work and left. “*‘Anyhow,’ I told the Fielding girls, | ‘I want you to get a glimpse of the inside. You never saw the like!’ “So we strolled around to the side and I got a box and stood on tiptoe | and flattened my face against the liv- | ing room window. “l found myself looking straight into the interested eyes of a perfectly strange man who seemed very much at home in a wicker chair beside a big table heaped with magazines and books and flowers and surrounded by furniture! If you have never peeked into a room in a house that did not belong to you and found the owner regarding you meditatively you cannot understand my sensations. “My face remained glued to the pane, because I was too limp to take it away. The strange man arose and came out at the front door and around ' to where we trembled and shrank' and regarded us politely. In a voice | strangely not my own I stammered foolishly that I was showing my friends the Sutton house. The strange man then announced that he was Mrs. Sutton’s brother and living there till the arrival of the family and he would be charmed— “Were you ever hypnotized? Did you ever dream of doing things (hat0 curdled your soul with shame? Well. I curdled as we trailed after that re- lentless man, who took us from attic | to cellar and had the cruelty to serve tea into the bargain and act as though | we had called politely instead of peek- ing in at windows! “He hadn’t any right to revenge himself so! The inside of the house? My dear, the house is a perfect dream, a beauty! That's the most exasperat- ing part of it!” —————e Truth and Progress, Whoever hesitates to utt which he thinks the highest tl:;th t]::: it should be too much in advance of the time, may reassure himselt by looking at his acts from an imperson- al point of view.
