' . ? . ? ?* 4 By MARGARET DELAND, 'Author of 44Dr. Lavendar's People;*' <401d Chester Tiles;** "Et;: . (Oopyrl?fct. lftftS. JAM. kr Harper * Bmtkm All R!;ht* ) CHAPTER VIII.' "Well, now." said I>r." Ii*vrnrt*r trtat Sunday evening when he and David cam" Into the study after tea, "I suppose you'd like me to tell you a story before ye* go to bed?" ? "A Bible story?" "Why.-yes." Dr. Lavendar admitted, a little taken aback. "No, sir." said David. "You don't want a Bible story!" The little boy shook his head. "David." said Dr. Lavendar. chuckling, [ "I think I like you." David madf no response; his facn was as blank as an Indian's. He sat down on a stool by the tire, and once he sighed. Danny had snlfTed him, slowly, and turned away with a bored look: it was then that he sighed. After a while he got up and wandered about the room, his hands gripped,in front of him. his lips shut tight. Dr: Lavenuar watched him outvof flie tall of his e.ve, but neither of them spoke. Suddenly David climbed up on a chair and looked fixedly at a picture that hung between the windows. "That is a Bible picture," Dr. Lavendar observed. > -? ? "Who,** said David, "is the gentleman in the water?" Dr. Lavendar blew his nose before an swering. Then he said that that was meant to be out- Savior when He was be lng_ baptized. "TTp in the sky." Dr. Lav endar added. "Is His Heavenly Father." There was silence until David asked, gently. "Is it a good photograph of God?" Dr. Lavendar puffed three times at his pipe: then he said. "If you think the picture looks like a kind father, then it is. And. David, I know some stories that are not Bible stories. Shall I tell yau one?" "If you want to. sir." David said. Dr. Lavendar began his tale rather doubt fully^ but David fixed such interested eyes upon his face that lie was flattered into enlarging upon his theme. The child listened breathlessly, his fascinated eyes traveling once or twice to the clock, then back to the kind old face. "You were afraid bedtime would inter rupt us?" said Dr. Lavendar. when the tale was done. "Well, well: you are a great boy for stories, aren't you?" "You've talked seven minutes," said David, thoughtfully, "and you've not moved your upper jaw once." Dr. Lavendar gasped; then he said, meekly. "Did you like the story?" David made no reply. "I think." said Dr. Lavendar, "I'll have another pipe." He gave up trying to make conversa tion: instead, he watched the clock. Mary had said that David must go to bed at 8. and as the clock, began to strike, Dr. Lavendar, with some eagerness, opened his lips to say good night?and <closed them. "Guess he'd rather run his own rig." he thought. But to his relief, at the last stroke David got up. "It's my bedtime, sir." "So It is! Well, it will be mine after a while. Good night, my boy!" Dr. Lav endar blinked nervously. Yourg persons were generally kissed. "I should not wish to be kissed." he said to himself, and the two shook hands graveJy. Left alone, he felt so fatigued he had to have' that other pipe. Befo-e he had finished it his senior warden looked in at the study door. "Come in, Samuel," said Dr. Lavendar. "Samuel, I feel as if I had driven ten miles on a corduroy road!" Mr. Wright looked "blank; sometimes he found It hard to follow Dr. Lavendan "Sam, young persons are very exciting." "Some of them are, I can vouch for that," Ills caller assured him, grimly. "Come, come! They are good for us," said Dr. Lavendar. "I wish you'd take a pipe. Sam; it would cheer you up." "I never smoke, sir," said Samuel, re provingly. "Well, you miss a lot of comfort in lif?. I've seen a good many troubles go up in smoke." Mr. Wrigh.t sat down heavily and sighed. "Sam been giving you something to think about?" Dr. Lavendar asked, cheer fully. "He always gives me something to think about. He is beyond my compre hension! I may say candidly that I can not understand him. What do you think he has done now?" "Nothing wicked." "I don't know how you look at It," Samuel said, "but from my point of view, buying prints with other people's money is, dangerously near wickedness. This present matter, however, is just imbe cility. I told him one day last week to write to a man in Troy, N. Y., about a bill of exchange. Well, he wrote. Oh. yes?he wrote. Back comes a letter from the man. inclosing my young gentleman's epistle, with a line added"?Mr. Wright fumbled in his breast pocket to find the document?"here it is: 'Above remarks about ships not understood by our house." Will you look at that, sir, for the 'remarks about ships'?" Dr. Lavendar took the sheet stamped "Bank of Pennsylvania." and hunted for his spectacles. When he settled them on his nose he turned the letter over, and read in young Sam's sprawling hand: "Was till* the face that launched a thousand ships. And burnt the topless towers of 111am?" "What's this? I don't understand." "Certainly you do not; no sensible per son would. I showed it to my young gen tleman and request.-d an explanation. 'Oh,' he said. 'when.you told me to write to Troy It made me'think of those lines.' He added that not wishing to forget them he wrote them down on a sheet of paper, and that probably he used the other side of the sheet for the Troy letter?'by mis take.' 'Mistake, sir!' I said, 'a sufficient number of mistakes will send me out of business.' " "Samuel," said Dr. Lavendar, thought fully, "do you recall whose face it was that 'launched the thousand ships' on Troy?" Samusl shook his head. "Helen's." said Dr. Lavendar. The senior warden frowned, then sud denly understood. "Oh, yes. I know all about that. Another evidence of his folly!" "I've no doubt you feel like spanking him." Dr. Lavendar said, sympathetically, "but " he stopped short. Sam .Wright was crimson. "I! Spank him? I?" He got up, open ing and shutting his hands. I1I3 face very red. The old minister looked at him in consternation. ? "Sam! what on earth Is the matter with you? Can't a man have his Joke?" Mr. Wright sat down. He put his hand to his mouth as though to Isld j some trembling betrayal: his very ears wore purple. Dr. Lavendar apologized profusely. "I was only In fun. I'm sure you know that I meant no disrespect to the boy. I only wanted to cheer you up." "I understand, sir; it is of no conse quence. I?I had something else on my mind. It is of no consequence." The color faded, and his face fell into Its usual bleak lines, but his mouth twitched. A minute afterward he began to speak with ponderous dignity. "This love-mak ing business is. of course, most mortify ing to me: and also, no doubt, annoying to Mrs. Richie. To begin with, she is eleven years older than he?he told his mother so. He added.v|f you please! that he hoped to marry her." "Well! Well!" said Dr. Lavendar. "I told him." Mr. Wright continued, "that in'my very humble opinion it was contemptible for a rryin to marry and al low another man to support his wife." Dr. Lavendar. sat up In shocked dis may. "Samuel!" "I. sir." the banker explained, "am Ills father, and I support him. If he marries. I shall have to support his wife. Ac-' cording to my poor theories of propriety, a man who lets another man support his wife had better not have one." "But you ought not to have put it that way," Dr. Lavendar protested. "1 merely put the fact." said Samuel Wright. "Furthermore, unless he stops dangling at her apron strings, I shad stop his allowance. I shall so Inform him." "You surely won't do such a foolish thing!" ".Would you have me sit still? Not put up a single barrrier to keep him In bounds?" ?'Samuel, do you know what barriers mean to a colt?""' ' .. '. Vr Wright made no response "They mean something to Jump over.'" "Possibly." said Mr. Wright. w(th dig nity. "you are to some extent correct.' But a man cannot permit his only son to run wild and fouflderT" " ' "Sain won't founder But he may (ret a had strain. You'd" better look out He is his father's sort." "I do not know. sir. to what you re fer." "Oh. yes. you do." Dr T^vendar as sured him. easily: "and you know that no man can experience unforgiving anger and not be crippled. You didn't founder. Sam. but you gave yourself a mighty usjy wrench. Hey? Isn't that so?" The senior warden looked perfectly deaf: then he took up the tale again. "If he goes on In Ills folly he will only he unhappy, and deservedly so. She will have nothing to do with him. In stop ping him, I shall oitly he keeping' him from future unhappiness." "Samuel." said Or. Lavendar. "I never begrudge unhappiness to the young." But sir. Wright wag too absorbed in his ; own troubles to get any comfort out oj that "By the way." said Dr. Tyavendar. "speaking of Mrs. Richly?do you think she'd hp a good person to take this Utile David Allison?" "I don't know why she shouldn't h->, sir." Samuel said. "I have no fault to i tind with her. Shepayn her rent nnd goes to church. Yes. a very good person to take tlfe boy ofT your hands." "The rent is Important." Dr. Lavendar agreed, nodding; "but going to church doesn't prove anything." "All good people go to church." the senior warden reproved him. "But all people who go to church are not good." Dr. J.avendar i-ald. dryly "I am afraid she lets Sam talk poetry to her." Sam's father broke out. "Stuff! absolute stuff! His mother sometime* tells me of It. Why." he ended, plteously. "half the time I can't understand what it's about; It's just bosh!" "What you don't understand generally Is bosh, isn't It. Sam?" said Dr. Lavendar, thoughtfully. "I am a man of plain common sense, sir: I don't pretend to anything hut com mon sense." "I know you don't. Samuel. T know you don't."?Dr. Lavendar said, sadly, and, the banker, mollified, accepted the. apology. "On top of everything else, lie's been writing a drama. He told his mother so. Writing a drama. Instead of writing up his ledgers!" "Of course, he ought not to neglect his work." Dr. Lavendar agreed, "hut play writing Isn't one of the seven deadly sins." ? "It Is distasteful to me!" Sam senior said, hotly; "most distasteful. I told his mother to tell him so. but he ?oee on writing?so she says." He slgih'id. and got up to put on his coat. "Well. I must go home. I suppose he has been inflicting himself upon Mrs. Richie tliis. evening. If he stays late, I shall, feel it my duty to speak plainly to him." Dr. Lavendar gave him a hand with bis coat. "Gently does it. Samuel, gently does it!" His senior warden shook his head. Tue sense of paternal helplessness, felt more or less by all fathers of sons, was heavy, upon him. He knew in a bewildered way that he did not speak the boy's language.. And yet he could not give up trying to communicate vith Uim?shouting at Ulpv. so to speak, as one shouts at a foreigner when trying to make oneself understood: for surely there must be some one word that would reach Sam's mind, some one touch that would stir his hearty Yet when he brought his perplexity to Dr. Lavendar, he was only toid to hold, his tongue and |fee& his hands off. The senior warden said to liimself. miserably, that he was afraid Dr lavendar mas getting old. "Well, I mustn't bother you." he said: "as for Sam. I suppose he will go his own gait! I don't know where ha gets his stubbornness from. I myself am the most reasonable man In. the. world. All I ever ask Is to be allowed to follow my own Judgment. ' I asked Tils ' mother'' If obstinacy was a characteristic of her family, and she assured me It was not. Certainly Eliza herself has no will of her own. I don't think a good woman ever has. And. as I say, I never Insisted upon my own way in my life?except, of course. In matter* where I knew I *?? right." "01 course,", said Etr. Lavendar (To be Continued Tomorrow.)
