Pesky locked the book ay, then sat with folded hands, a med itative look on the young face. An automobile horn honked loudly. She sprang up, went to the window and waved joyously, then ran down the steps to the veranda CHAPTER II. The lover's eyes glowed as they fell upon her. Peggy was more than pretty, or even beautiful. She wan distinctive. Not only in Greencastle, but on Fifth Avenue would she have stood out tm fine relief from the feminine crowd. Ed drew her to the vine-covered portion of the veranda and lifted her to his arms to kise her. He set her on her feet, then stooped to kisg her again. “Pretty Pecgy Love,” he whis- pered. “Preity Peggy — Trow- bridge.” He laughed, a big langh of sheer joy in the possession of her, and held her off at arm's length for further delighted tnspection. “The pretpest "Mra.
