(Copyright, McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) Helen had not dreamed, when she opened her morning paper. that she was to find there- in the means for her summer holi- days. She was a seamstress, and it was not always oasy to save I:E clent money squander on holf- days unless she oould find a pa tron or two among the summer col- ony of the people who was liberal However, the small advertisement in the morning paper solved Helen's problem for her and promised a much needed month in the mountains. “Jimmy!” she called to her brother, who had not as yet left his office, “lsten to this chance for me to get into the country for awhile.” She read the lines to him. *‘To Dress- makers—A splendid holiday at Cha- teaugay, in Adirondacks, for one month; board and lodging free in re- turn for making & few summer dresses. Mrs. Drake, Amble Cottage, Chateaugay, N. Y.’ There! Isn't that a dandy opportunity for me and you can have a glorious month of bach- elordom.” She hugged her big broth- er in an ecstasy of excitement, and went over to her desk to write a hurried note to Mrs. Drake offering that lady her services as a seam- stress, Two days passed before Helen's re- ply came, and still another before she could get comfortably packed up and started on her way. Helen had not been in Amble Cot- tage two days before she knew the real state of affairs. “It seems,” she wrote to her broth- er, “that the Drakes had not expect- ed to meet anyone whom they cared to cultivate, up here in the mountains, but Enid, the daughter, has made the acquaintance of one Mark Austen, who has taken the camp next door, and clothes are needed in a hurry to enspare the said Mark. It seems, from all I can learn, that he is a most eligible catch. Hence it is Mr. Aus- ten of Camp Fire that I must thank for my lovely holiday—isn't it?” It was during one of Helen's ram- bles along the edge of a trout stream thlt she came suddenly upon a fish- Hq_lefl would have quietly pule hlm had he not turned laugh- ingly toward her. “I suppose there is not the slight- est chance of your having a match with you?” he inquired boyishly. “I had the misfortune to drop my box in the stream while bending over this beauty.” He drew up a rainbow trout for Helen's admiring eyes. “] often make my tea in the woods,” she told him by way of explaining the presence of masculine equipment in her own pocket. “By jove! Iam the lucky dog,” he commented. “I suppose you often take this walk before breakfast?” he quen fed with appalling disregard for the conventions. “I fish here rain or shine every morning from six o'clock to lunchtime; and since I am no good at making tea or anything, I have to go home to camp.” “I only walk here when the fancy pleases me,” she told him with only a slightly elevated dimpling chin. “Good morning,” sbe added, and would have turned on her heel save that she slipped en a wet rock and would have fallen. “There,” he sald catching her, “that is what you get for behaving g0 abominably to me.” He put her carefully on her feet then and re- sumed his fishing. After that she could do nothing but reward him with one of her most lovely smiles. “It was good of you to save me from a ducking,” she sald, “and If I had been properly Introduced to you 1 would be delighted to cook some of those beauties on a camp fire,” she pointed to his basket of trout. “As it is, 1 must hurry back, since my time is not entirely my own.” Bhe went then and the lone flsherman watched her out of sight. His catch that morning was excel- lent. They were piled so high in his basket that he stopped on his way home to offer his neighbors a dozen | for their lunch. Enid Drake met him on the wide veranda of Amble Cottage. “Oh, Mr. Austen, you disreputable person,” she exclaimed laughingly, as she viewed his great boots that were muddy and his old flannel shirt that was weather- beaten from many rains. Neverthe- less it was her best smile that she gave him, for he was the most elig- ible Mark Austen of Camp Fire. The smile was completely wasted on Mark Austen, because at that mo- ment he caught sight of a sunny head bent over a pink something that she was sewing on. The next letter that she sent home to her brother ended with a long paragraph of eulogy on one Mark Austen. “He fell in love with me instead of Enid,” Helen wrote. “He is fright- fully impatient, and it looks as if you will have to keep bachelor flat until such time as you find the right girl.” Unkind. “Dearie, I've long had something on | my mind.” “] wish you wouldn't brag so, Fred erick.”—Detroit Free Press.
