j Phlneas Clode lowered 111* silk um
brella. shook the clinging raindrop*
1 therefrom and opened the front door
of the hoarding house.
As he entered the cheery red carpet
ed hull n kitten playing with a spool
of white thread dashed away witli a
ware of a ridiculously small tall. lea*,
'ng the spool on the floor with the loose
'hread running under the heavjr enr
talns that hung before the parlor door.
"Tut, tut!" said Mr Clode under h's
breath as he placed his umbrella in
the stand and stooped to r^k up the
spool. Ills neat and orderly spirit w.is
shocked at the sight of the tangled
thre?d on the floor.
So he began to wind It on to the
spool, and he wound most Industrious
ly for five minutes before he reached
the end of the thread, which had a
small loop in It. This be fastened
neatly In the little notch cut In the end
of the spool and dropped the spool on
the table beside the parlor door. At
least Mr. Clode thought he dropped the
spool there, but as a matter of fact It
rolled off Into the umbrella stand and
fell among the folds of Mr C lode's silk
amhella.
At the dinner table Phlneas Clode
was pleased to note that a newcomer
was placed opposite to hltn. She was
a small, fair woman, rather delicate
looking, and as she walked Into the
dining room he noted that she limped
slightly. Mrs. Rowel!, his landlady, in
troduced Phlneas to the stranger. Her
( name was Miss Cynthia l-'elton.
"Miss Kelt an Is my second consln."
?aid Mrs Itowelt. with an amiable |
smile at the middle aged bachelor,
who wns In every rrst*"Vt her "star"
!>oardcr "She is going to remain with
me all winter."
Phlneas Clode fett a vague pleasure
n knowing that he would bare this
street faced vis a vis for several
fx;*.*
"ttjnsrvvF.R t.or*," T>rmATKt> rniN**s
month#. He was startled out or a
dream of many quiet' games of chess
with Miss i'elton by the voice of Mrs
Bennett, his next neighbor.
"Somebody taken your lace?" she
sab) tn her hard shrill voice "I call
Hint mean."
"Oh, no; I didn't any any on* had
laknn Itr* protested Miss Kelton, with
? ahocked glance around Uie labia. "I
merely said I had lost it"
Meantime I'hlnens Clode ate his
imp per quite innocent of any partlcl
pation in the dlsap|>enrance of the lace,
lie had planned out his evening with
the an me prev ision tliat he devoted to
the neatly kept ledgers in the ware
house where he had been head book
keeper for many years
As soon as he had eaten hia dinner
he would walk three times around the
block while he smoked a cigar. Then
he would return to his boarding bouse
and read the evening paper In his com
fortable alcove bedroom.
Aa soon as he had met Miss Felton.
However, he thought he recognised the
qniet. concentrated mind of a chess
player. If she didn't know how to
play he might teach her.
So after he had walked around the
block three times and returned to tbe
boarding house parlor to report that
the rain had censed, although the aky
was still overcast, he Joined Miss Fel
ton at the round table where she was
engaged In some Intricate needlework
which employed the drawing of many
threads from a piece of linen atid then
sewing the threads together In confus
ing groups that Anally evolved Into a
rharmlrc pattern.
"This Is called drawn work," explain
ed Miss Felton in response to his ques
tion.
"The lace yon lost? I heard you men
tion It at the table? was it something
like thisT" Phineas gnaed vaguely
around the room as though he thought
fime lucky chance mlcht reveal tbe
hiding place of the lost lace.
"Oh, no. Indeed It was knitted lace.
It was such a pretty pattern!"
"What was it like?" Inquired Thln
eas gravely, lie wiu? Interested I*.
| and growing mm *n every moment
' because Ml** Felton waa *o aweet K
"Well," *11 id Mi** Felton. dropping
her work and folding her pretty white
tin rid*. "It hnd n background of tiny
butterflies with ro?ei here and there.
A friend of mire originated the pet
tern and set the stitcbea for me Jost
before I left borne She has alnce dl?1.
So the midsummer love pattern? that's
what she called lit? will never be made
! after all."
, "Midsummer lore.- repeated Phln
, eas remlnlscentlj. "Seems to me I ,
used to know a ?iong called that"
"Yes. there I* one? 1 BMd to know
that It went this way." And Ml**
Felton hummed under her breath In
i a sweet, rich tone, and Phlneas Joined
i In his (rood tenor, and the* both blush
I ed and looked guilty wlien the bridge
I players at the tfther end of the room
1 encored their efl'ort
After awhile Ml** Felton went to
I the piano and plaved some accompn
I nlinents for Phlnen*. who sane "The
I Soldier's FnrewifH" and "Mary of Ar
gyll." Then, to Phlneas' delight, he
; learned that MM* Felton was a devot
I ed chess plater, nnd the rest of the
I evening yas ^tr-nt In a ipilet < ?rner of
I the room over the ch??*s ?:ib'e
At exactly S.TO lite next morning
i Phlneas Clode put <>n hi* hat and
j mackintosh and picked hi* wmlirella
out of the hall stand. for It was rain
In? again As he accomplished this
apparently nnlmportant act Miss Fel
| ton came slowly d?wn the stairway.
I while at the same moment there
emenred from the dining room, which
he had Jnst lfft. Mrs Rennett and
I Miss Chase, the *tenoirr*pher.
When mornlDK trreetlnirs had been
j exchanged Mrs Bennett called np to
! Miss Felton. who had paused halfway
down the stairs,
J "Old yon find your lace. Mlsa Fel
ton?"
| "No. Indeed; not a trace of It."
| "Odd where 'tis," clipped Miss Chase.
"Raining?" she asked Phlneas.
"Yes. I belietf so." replied Phlneas,
I giving his umbrella a little shake as he
I opened the front door.
Then ihat wpool of thread 6?*w out
1 and rolled -slowly down the breadth of
red carpet ,
? Phlnens stared. Mr*. Bennett smiled j
, significantly at Miss Chase, who mur
mured. "Search me!" Miss Felton I
peered over the banlsler and looked at
? he spool
"Why. that looks like my thread." i
j she cried- "Where can If have come
' from, and where Is tny lace?"
I "It came out of Mr Clode'a nmbrel- j
| la." said Mrs Bennett dryly as abe ;
picked up the apool and banded It to !
I Miss Felton. Mr* Bennett did not like j
i Mr. Clode? that Is. not since he bad
given her plainly to understand that he '<
I was quite satisfied with his state of j
single blessedness. Mr?. Bennett was '
a stout, blond widow.
I "So longr murmured Mlsa Chase, j
I taking herself and her atenographlc i
| sentences from the house. Bnd she was J
| Immediately followed by Mrs. Ben- j
nett.
"I haven't the slightest Idea how It :
[ happened. MIms" Felton." Hammered J
I I'hineas, growing redder every moment ,
j as Miss Felton looked oddly at bltn.
| "That Is, I thought I placed the apool j
I on the table last night It must have j
fallen Into my umbrella."
"But where did yon Bnd It. Mr.
Clodef asked the little woman gently, j
Then ITiinefts recollected all about t
the kitten which had been playing with |
a spool of thriwd In the front hall the
evening before and how ho had rescued
the spool and carefully wound the loose
thread upon it and finally bad fastened
the little loop In the end of the thread
In the notch In the spool.
Miss Folton shook her head regret- 1
fully. "Ah. Mr. Clode, see what yon
have rlortp It was yon who unraveled
my knitted lace, the pattern of mid
summer lore tt wns on the table be
slfle me. aid II never saw It as tt was
palled to t ie floor. It Is amusing tool"
She laughed g Kny little langh, and
Phineas Clode felt a desire to embrace
her then and there for her sweetness
In not being severe with him. lie nn
derstood that ladles were very parthr
nlar about their lace patterns and
might become attached to some partic
ular one*, and he would not have blam
ed her If she had cnt his acquaintance
then and tberp.
For the flrst time In hla life he was
late to business that morning, and he
paid so little attention to hla under
lines In ttie office that they put in an
amazingly Irtl* day. When the office
was closed he pnt on his hat and paid
a visit to an old friend of hla mother'#,
an aged lady who lived In Brooklyn
and whotn he remembered to be al
ways engaged In some sort of "fancy
work."
"Midsummer lore lace pattern?" she
murmured in response to hla Mushing
Inquiry. "What's got Into yon. Phin
eas? Not knitting lace, are yon?"
"No, Indeed!-' he hastened to assure
j her. "I merely want It for a friend."
"Well, I haven't got snch a thing, bat
j I have got a nattern yon can tak? to
her. No one ever made It except my
self, bat I'll ?end It to her becaase
she'a yonr friend. Phlneaa." And ahe
gave It to him In a sealed envelope, and
he went away happy as a boy.
After dinner he gnv# It to Miss Fel
ton, while the others wrangled over
oridge In the nest room. "I hope It
will In a small measure replace the
one I destroyed." he said meekly aa ahe
opened the envelope and drew oat the
pattern.
It was a dainty design of wreaths
of orange leaves and blossoms, and
pinned to It was a bit of paper on
which was scrawled in an angnlar, old
fashioned ha nd. "Rilde's Wreath."
They bent their heads over the love
ly pattern, and a faint color bloomed
in each face.
j "1 hope? tJiat -may be prophetic,"
murmured Pltlneas aoftly. and Cyntbla
Felton did not chide hliu for saying It
