Theresa had never, during her twenty-six vears, done anything of which her parents might disapprove. Tawny of hair and with great smol- ! dering brown eyes, the girl could be ! either a saint or a sinner, but as it i happened Theresa had chosen the for- ! mer {*] am going to t | must know that | | | satd and | spend the night with us. muttered Theresa while automobile whirl- g the dusty road. “But now."” she watched a great ing out of sight al urn sinner coed-looking man who has just passed by in his motor. It s positively wicked that a mascu- line person should be &0 much alnne— not to mention feminine ones,” Ther- esa sighed. and her eyes absorbed the vast beauty of the farm upon which she had been spending the summer. “I believe,” she ruminated. with & shy, sweet smile, “that 1 could really love—him, if 1 only knew him.” Then, out of her strong desire to be- come acquainted with the man who twice daily whizzed past the farm house on his way to business in the city, Theresa formed a plan During the afternoon when every- one about the farm was either sleep- ing or busily engaged, Theresa made her way to the thicket of fir trees. Once within the shelter she drew from her ample pocket three empty ale bot- tles which she had secured from the kitchen. A moment later she had broken them into jagged pleces and put them into a cigar box. Making ber way stealthily toward the barn she next added a score of thin rusty nalls to her box and some sharp steel filings. “Surely some of these will punec- ture at least one tire.” was the thought centered {n Theresa’s mind while she made her way back to the house. She put her treasure within the thicket of vines that clustered over the porch then swung herself into the big ham-| . mock to await the twilight hour. “He generally passes about 7:30,” she decided before slipping off into a short nap It was the toot of the motor horn far In the distunce that awakened Theresa. She jumped up hurriedly, picked up her box of evil looking glass, nails and filines and stole gwift- Iy down to the roadside. With trem- bling fingers she strewed the con- tents of her box across the width of the road and tossed the box iuto the hedge After a trlumphant little glance at her handlwork she sped quickly up the path and into the house. Breath- less and guilty she watched the ap proaching motor from her window among the roses. As the car drew nearer Theresa felt a cold chill run down her spina, “What if anything should happen— ! and he ghould be hurt?” she whispered to the roses. of them. She fell back against the’ wardrobo ! In her room and could not summon | courage to look out and sce the result | of her endeavor. Down in the road a man was mut- tering short, improper words. He was standing beside his big motor car, the | | tires of which were all as flat ns a plece of llnen. Twiligcht had fallen | with swift wings and the road was | no more than a road. And through the soft twilight ! Theresa hear® her father's volce In | conversation with the man of the | motor. “We have food and beds to spare.” her father was saying. “Come in and We are al ways glad to welcome a stranger at our table.” “0. how glad." murmured Theresa Her heart was beating now with the success of her scheme and her cheeks were flushed. There was gomethine hidden in the depths of her eyes and as she descended the stalrs perhans the saint and the sinner were oddly Theresa felt very much | !1ike the sinner as the found herself combined. | looking into John Ridgeway’s eyes. “It 18 strange” he was saying. | “that T have gone over this road twieco | Newest I 4 | a day for two years and this is the est Ideas in Bung first time—" He stopped short, wheth- | er from the effect of Theresa's blush | { or the curve of her lips he knew not. “I have not lived here go long.” she the meaning heneath was of eourse lost to John Rldgeway. “It {18 fortunate that the accident to your: ! tires haprened when you were near | & honse,” she added. f “Very, very fortunate” Ridgeway sald and the true meaning was not‘ lost upon Theresa “I knew I would lfke him " she told ! | herself with an inward chuckle. “I suppose vou will never use this | road again.” Theresa suggested with a i i | | | 0 demure ralsing of the lashes. “On the contrary,” laughed Ridge-| way, “It may be that T will give up’ | business entirely and take to driv-| tng back and forth in front of this' { most delightful farmhouse.” It was not until after dinper whcn her father and Ridgeway were h1v1ns< { a smoke and her mother wus reading | that Theresa found time to slip off un- | observed.

With a firm swing of the broom Theresa swent that trail of her ;uilt out of the sight of men.
