“Come and eat. 1108.716," she said gently. “You can rest betwr on n full stomach."

Gay smiled at her, yawning. stret- ching luxuriously. “You are a dar- ling." she said. "I wasn't a bit hun- gry, and now I am." She stood up shaking herself.

Auntalrniry watched her shrewd-

ly. I “You didn't begin to rest any too she said signiﬁcantly. i

“No. Almost mo late; in fact. So. far; I am too tired to enjoy reating,| but after a while, a week, or a month how I shall revel in it." -'

She curled up the tips oi hei- shoes borlshly. about the legs of the chair at the table, and although she was not hungry, the tea ‘she sipped with! relish. And as they ate. Auntalmiryl descanted a great length on_the out-l rageousness of fifty dollars a. month for that rock-pile, told her to look out for the draughty window on the ocean side, and enlarged on the con- dition of the kitchen woodwork.

She recommended Lumly Lane for lobsters, and promised to send him up for orders. And at Auntalrrlirys suggestion Gay made out a grocery list to initiate her own light- ‘house- keeplns. and gave it to that same small obliging person to leave at the Pier grocery store.

While they were still at the table, Gus, the taxi boy, came up for Aunt- almiry's thinsa. and trudged off down the_ hill, heavily laden, ' and Auntalmiry, hastily catching upon arlnful of coats and dresses, tripped ‘after him. '

Gay waved them away and turned back, yawning, into the pretty cot- tage, turned again, gratefully, to the wide couch ln the shadowy corner, stretched herself out upon it, and closed her eyes. '

Tlmaftemoon waned. A boy from the Pier grocery stole brought her basket of groceries, and left it on the kitchen table without disturbing her. i i Dusk crept out of the forest‘ and darkened the windows. Once Gay stirred, restfully, se presence in her sleep, seemed to feel the gaze of human eyes upon her in the silence. Rlesentfully she forced the heavy lids to raise. In the shadowy, dying light

she ‘ to see a small figure crouching near her, and a small face yellow and wrinkled like parchment, with pinched features and slanting almond-shaped eyes fastened hyp- notically upon her eyes. Beneath one eye a. small crescent-bowed scar shone in the yellow parchment. It was the scarred and wrinkled face of a little old Chinaman. Even in her sleep, Gay lsnew it could not be, and smiled faintly at her foolish fancy. 1 "It is a. dream," she thought mist- ,i1y. "Dream on."

y She closed her eyes again.

The little yellow face receeded into

the dusk, the small figure faded noisely into the shadows, and there was not the slightest sound from the small, swift moving feet as he step- ped over the sill of the window on the forest side, and padded away among the trees. . Hours after, when Gay wakened from her sleep, the house ‘was still and dark. The greatness of ‘her re- laxation pleased her.

“I shall go on like this for weeks," she thought blissfully. "smelling sweet scents of sea and woods, hear-, 'ing strange noises of ghostly breaths and phantom footsteps. feeling the
