"That's sounds like your father," he said. "What were you thinking about? I'm jealous you didn't share it with me." "Everything: life, the future, and what a girl can do beside watering the maidenhair fern." "Swollen with ambition?" he said. "Swollen fit to bust, if you want to know." "I do; tell me." "Boys get a chance to try what they can do. I was just thinking, you have got your life all clearly mapped out. You want to be a lawyer, and everyone agrees, and you sail through your exams. , ." "Not too much sail," he protested. "I know you worked hard, but you wanted to. It's the work you've set your heart on, and from now till you are an old man like Grandfather, I suppose you will be a brilliant and successful lawyer." "I like your flattering picture. But' . "Pat wants to be a sailor, and runs away to sea. Kelly is determined to be a farmer, and the devil himself won't stop him. Mary wants to be a nun, and she battles down Father's opposition by sheer weight of obedi- ence, and gets her way. But look at me! I don't want to be a nun, and tinkering about the house seems so futile, Yet what can I do?" "What do you want to do?" An ap- prehensive note throbbed in his voice. "That's just it, I don't know, But I want to tackle a job with both hands; something that makes you stretch your self," and she illustrated the thought with a gesture of striv- ing, and her hand reached and caught a bough overhead. "How I wish I had been a man!" she finished passionately, "I hate to hear you say that." Robin snapped a twig between his fingers aand threw the bits over his shoulder in a gesture of impatience, "It's only because you get a wider chance. If I could get out and do something—something really useful, or important, I would much rather be a woman." "I see. Just running a home and managing a husband and family don't seem important?"

"Why can't you be content a little longer?" A Wild urge to calm her, to defy them all, pressed hard, He had no illusions about what such a declara- tion would mean. All provious faze- ily disasters would pale "before it, This would not only be in direct op- position to all his mother's hopes for him, and the family's general attitude, but a breach of the code. Almi3st indecent. Robin knew his mother harbored great ambitions for his personal and social advancement. Subordinated to the necessities of her own marriage they were now reviving, intensified for him. The house in Hobson St. had been tentatively mentioned, and to please her he had shared her en- thusiasm at the prospect. Some day! "Sonne day, of course, you' will marry, dear," Kitty had said, "but not for a long time yet, I hope, It handicaps a young man. And his choice at twenty-two is not as wise as later on. A foolish marriage can do more than anything to wreck a man's career, And I want to have you to myself for a little while, a few more years; we have been so much apart, and you are all I have, But I will never stand in your way of a good marriage—a happy 731Fr riage. Still, that is a long way off." "Don't be afraid, Mother; I'm.' in no hurry to marry." That was before Tapuwai. At the moment Robin was content to keep secret in his heart the love he had for his cousin Genevieve. He must be sure of his place in life be- fore he faced the storm. Miles would fling him out of the office and leave him to fend for himself, that was certain. His mother, who had made so many sacrifices for him that he might have his chance, would be so distressed; he could imagine the bit- terness of her disappointment. Could he bear to inflict that hurt? She had such high hopes for him; they were the very pivot of her life. Later, per- haps, but not now. He dare not pre- cipitate such a disaster by a prema- ture word. Yet he was afraid to lose Genevieve. Unlike many young lovers, who meet and build a top-heavy structure of passion without any base to sus- tain it, Robin and Genevieve had the solid foundation of years spent under one roof in the intimacy of family life.

Miss "Nellie", Chatham—The out- standing characteristic in your nature is your procrastination. You put off doing things that demand immediate attention.

He is not quite the innocent sufferer he pretends to be.

Robin! Come quickly." Matthew Pencarrow was dead. CHAPTER NINE. Robin stayed with his mother, and a neighbor drove Genevieve hurriedly to town. Kitty was anxious for Miles to come out, Genevieve walked into her father's study, the morning's scene completly, forgotten in this sudden tragedy. "Father .. " she began, but his angry broke in. Go to your room, I'll speak to you later. How dare you disobey me?" She raised her hand in a protesting gesture, as though to wave aside a futile quarrel. "Grandfather is dead," she said gently. "What"! Genevieve nodded, and forced back the tears. "It was quite sudden, this afternoon, His heart, the doctor said"," "My God! This is terrible!" "We sat with him for a while be- fore dinner, and he was in pain then, but he seemed glad to see us, 'You never forget me, Genevieve,' he said. I didn't see hila again," "Quick, call your mother. We must go out at once," Matthew Pencarrow had been con- quered in spirit by physical pain, For years his movements had been ham- pered and his big frame twisted and cramped by rheumatism. Long after he had surrendered his authority, Bessie's indomitable spirit had held sway. Matthew had lost touch; even the home farm, now capably managed by an experienced farmer bad ceased to interest him greatly.
