You'll just have to write and tell her that he can't come. I won't have him. I bhate men—and | despise boarders,” she concluded, vehemently Her mother sighed. Then she said a little gulltily, “I'm afraid you'll have to submit to it, dear, for I've al- ready told his mother that he might come.” Whereupon Cornelia rled away like a tornado to her room and wept there, In the co Fred Lambert arrived abode with Trents to the spirit if not the vow, ignored the young man as far as her early and thorough training in the school of courtesy would permit.

Mar- jorie, the younger sister, anc ed soon became the best of friends. Fred, be- ing a happy, genial person, was great- 1y troubled by Cornelia’s treatment of him. “I wonder why your sister dislikes me 807" he asked Marjorie one day. “I don't think she dislikes you,” Marjorie hastened to assure him. *It's just—\w!l: she didn't want you to come, and now she won't give in be- cause she's the most obstinate thing.” Fred whistled. "So that's it, is t?” he said. If it hadn't been for Tom perhaps Cornelia never would have glven in But Tom elected several days later to catch his annual mouse. Being a fat and overfed feline, he rarely conde- ecended to enter the hunting fleld for himself, and when he did it was a tragical event in the family. Cornelia would rather have had the house gswarming with mice than witness Tom's treatment of one when he had caught it On this occasion Coruelia was alone at home when the ominous thumping and squeaking that were sure iIndica- fons of Tom's achievement reached her ears. She rushed down the stairs and into the living room just in time to see Tom release his victim, allow it to wabble away a few feet and then pounce upon it once more.
