THE WORLD: MONDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 24, 1902, _ The Ways of Love. Two City Chaps’ Adventure with a Backwoods Nightingale. A NEW YORKER LOST HIS HEART. But Liza Dobson’s Heart Was True to Bob and There the Romance Ended. BY FRANK H. SWEET. Copyright, 1902, by Dally Story Publiching Co.) STRAY chicken wandered aimlessly about a small clearing. Overhead magnolias and live! oaks mingled their branches, while here | and there rose the stately trunks of royal palms, Beyond the creek, and stretching away for a hundred mil to the eouth and west. were the Ever- Glades. In the distance gleamed the blue waters of Lake Okeechobee. To the east was a wilderness, to the north almost twenty miles of almost impenetrable jungle. And in the mfdst the little ‘clearing, lonely and wild and ugly. For, except where the log gabin stood near the centre, the trees had been merely girdied, and now Tose white and ghostly, their gray, skeleton arms creaking and Rroaning with every passing breeze. Among them were long ridges of sweet pota- ¢o vines, and, nearer the cabin. a few “I suppose we can have the old camp site by the creek?” Mr, Lowery in- quired, “Suttingly, suttingly!’ responded Mr. Dobveon, heartily, ‘You all act Jest like you was to home an’ help yourselves. There's rafts of garden sass an’ melons spilin’."" Before night the camp was ready, and late in the evening the two men with their young gulde went down to the creek for a preliminary “brush” with the alligators. And {t did not take long to discover that the girl's praise of her brother was justifiable. Before many days the two men expressed themselves as perfectly satisfied with his gervices. As the days went by the relations be- tween the house and the camp grew more intimate. Mr, Danielson was an. enthusiast In s profession and found the volce of the young girl fully as at- tractive as alligator hunting. Day after THE GIRL OF THE WILDERNESS.

Two men were working thelr way through the thick masses of palmetto. Guddenly they paused to listen. “What a voice!" one of claimed. “A backwoods nightinga “It must be old Dobson's daughter,” waid the other. “I was here five years go, and she was then the widest and happlest little thing I ever saw—a beau- tiful child with - wonderful voice."

Before they had time to ppeak she sprang down the steps with outstretched hands. Mr. Low'ry, for all the worl’! she eried, her eyes sparkling with pleasure, ‘Hive mighty pleasant to see you roun’ again. Paw'll suttingly be glad, “And I shall be glad to see him,” paid Mr. Lowery, heartily, “We have had some rare ts together. But how you have grown! You were only fa Mttle girl when I left."
