                                                              W I L I F R E D .


                                             T  was  in  the  spring  following  Wili-

                                          I fred’s ninth birthday that the Morans
                                         returned from  Italy with  the  intention  of

                                         settling  down  upon  their  native  heath.

                                          They  had  visited  all  the  health  resorts
                                         that  had  ever  been  heard  of,  but  Mrs.

                                          Moran  was  still  very  delicate.

                                             “  Mamma  will  be  more  likely  to  find

                                         her  health  here  than  in  any  foreign
                                         country,”  said  Wilifred,  who  was  de­

                                         lighted  to  be  in  America  again.  u  She

                                         lost  it  before  she went  away,  and  I  think
                                         people  had  always  better  look  for  things

                                          where  they  lose  them.”
