North writes we wont keep her Tom while she and Mr North go a- for the Whos her Tom asked Madge suscinctly Her stepson Ive not seen Aunt Mary since she married Mr North and I know next to nothing of the family But Mrs Wilson knew Mr North when they were living in Chicago that was in the time of the first Mrs North and she said there was two girls and a hoy The hoy was in kilts then and that was- five years ago so he must be about eight or years Macy says he has been ill with typhoid and that she remembers with hope for his health that air at is healing But we cant have him mother Think of having an eightyearold boy on our hands the whole summer We can never get enough cooked for him to eat and hell be drowned regular ly once a week and break all his arms and legs on the other days And I wanted a quiet rest this summer before I have to go back to that awful office And it will be- well the other kind of a time with a Tommy around that is certain But Madge I cant refuse Aunt Mary She was your fathers favor ite aunt and always so good to him No Tommy will have- to come whether we want him or not Well then when The letter says next Tuesday un less they hear from us that it is not convenient Tell Aunt Mary I nave the small pox or that I died suddenly at the nowii any thing Please I was wondering said her moth er whether an eightyearold boy would be afraid to sleep in a room by Shall we put a bed in the alcove oil my room or fix- up the south chamber Ml the buys Ive ever seen an- d neither gs Hie earth nor of those upon it Give him a room to himself and then youll be saved the everlasting clatter of fishing tackle and knives and toads and things in bis room Still grumbling Madge helped her mother get ready the south chamber As she worked she grew interested and even look from the walls of her own room some interesting prints which she thought would be suitable for a hoys room I cant see though why Aunt Mary didnt take the little wretch with her the sea air would do him good Take out all the fancy things mother as you value them you understood big hoys as well as you seem to understand the small ones you would he twenty- lour and still single teased her mother I do mother said Madge vehem ently I understand them altogeth er too Well and thats the reason I arn still single There was no Immediate reply to this and Mrs Vaughn turned her at tention the room Oct all your old picture books and put on that shelf Madge and I think Ill bring Jims old hobbyhorse down from the attic fie may de spise It hut you never can tell I suppose I could make him some kites said Madge Theres all that red and blue paper and miles of yel low string Perhaps If I make a big one hell get fastened to It and fly off Mars And while up Jn the attic Im going to bring down some of Jims old overalls Arrangements were finally her young charge She watched the few who came out of coaches nervously with one eye on the danc ing pony but as far as she could see no small boy was on the train Fearing that he had not the name of the station called she spoke to the conductor who told her that no such person was on the train Well she thought I suppose I should of it and was going back to the trap when it occurred to her that he might some way have got past her into the station and might bo waiting for her there She looked in No one was there but a very tall young man who was leaning back rather limply against the seat pale as from a recent illness Madge gave him more thap a passing glance be cause she he might be Young men at at this sea son were a rarity Looks sicks she muttered or a little daffy She was getting into the cart when a quiet I beg your pardon caused her to wheel around The strange young man hat in hand was certainly speaking to her She merely looked her surprise Are you Miss Vaughn and werent you expecting me Her eyes widened into a positive stare of amazement I I am Madge Vaughn but you you must qe mistaken she said I am North Tom North my mother wrote He was blushing a little at the of her recep tion tion You you are little Tommy Why She began to laugh merrily and the young man laughled too a nt stiffly for he did not understand the joke You have the advantage of mc he said Madge sobered ay his tone and re alized that she was not showing any marked hospitality She held out- a repentant hand which the young man took eagerly Were sort of cousins I guess she said Anyway if you are Tommy North weve been looking for you so get in and well start I can go away if it is not con venient protested the young man Convenient after Ive worked for three days getting picture hooks and kites and little blue overalls ready for you No sir you will have to use ill those things You she explained as me drove along we got the impression from some one that you were eight yearn old Your mother never mentioned your age or height and so we got ready for a small hoy and and here arc some cookies I brought along so that you would not ask questions on way home She thrust a taper bag into his hands They were both laughing like child ren as they drove in at the gate and by the time explanations were made to Mrs Vaughn the young man was thankful that the surprise had hap pened He felt that It had been a good to take Madge by sur prise for when two people have together they have rapidly progressed in their acquaintance On the very first day Mrs Vaughn had looted at the two with compre hension in her eyes and as the weeks grew into months she felt reasonably sure that Madge would never go back to the office Why should she whispered the older woman to herself when a prosperous young physician Is not only willingly but obviously anxious to monopolize her The iy before he was scheduled to go hack to the city a new man by reason of air and companionship they took the big red and blue kite to the top of a nearby bill to fly it It soared clear above the trees as the man slowly unwound the long yellow string The girl watched It rather sadly for as yet there had been no word of love be tween them and she realized that she had grown to much was hard not to let him see there might be another girl In the city to whom ho was bound and she well she had her work at the office The tears had come Into her eyes and now they splashed over The young man looked up just in to catch sight of them and letting Riot at Port William Fort William
