PROLOGUE.
Strength anil interest of quiet
Uvea in the New England of
three-quarters of a century ago
provide the framework of “The
Story of Waitstill Baxter. ” That
ie the skeleton. The flesh and
blood of human beings, living
and loving and moving in a world
of their own (hat is a miniature
picture of the greater world out
side, are also there. The story
is a cross section of life as seen
and described by a woman who
has been well called “America's
greatest living woman novelist."
Amid the hills of New England
are many men and women like
Waitstill and Putience Baxter
and their father, Ivory Boynton
and his afflicted mother and
funny Cephas Cole, who woos
hopefully, but with small chance
of success. They find their way
into book .t but seldom, for it
takes a master hand to describe
faithfully the doings of real
people. And that Is the reason
why “The Story of Waitatill
Baxter" has won highest praise
from critics who know a good
book when hov see one.

what WaiUtill Baxter thought aa she
aat down on the millstone step for a
word with the old joiner, her best and
most understanding frleud in all the
village.
“I've come to do my mending her,*
with you.” she said brightly, as she
took out her well Ailed basket and
threaded her needle. “Isn't It a won
derful morning? Nobody could look
the world iu the face and do a wrong
thing on such a day. could they. Unde

The meadow s were a waving mass of
gulden buttercups: the shallow water
at the river’s edge Just Inflow the shop
was blue with spike* of arrow weed;
a hunch of (rugrant water lilies, gaiu
ered from tne mill pond's upper levels,
lay beside Wnitstlll’s mending basket,
and every foot of roadside and field
within sight was swaying with long
stemmed white and gold daisies. The
June grass, the friendly, humble, com
panionable grass, that no one ever
praises as they do the flowers, was a
rich emerald green, a velvet carpet fit
for the.feet of the angels themselves.
And the elms and maples! Was there
ever such it year for richness of foli
age? And the shy, was It ever so blue
or so clear, so far away, or so com
pletely like heaven, as you looked at
Its reflection iu Ihe glassy surface of
the river?
"Yes, it’s a pretty good day,” allowed
Uncle Bart Judicially as he took a
srpilnt at Ids T-square. "I don’t
know’s I should want to start out an’
try to heat it! The I.ord can make a
good many kinds o’ weather in the
course of a year, hut when he puts
his mind on to it an' kind o' gives him
self a free hand he can turn out a
June mornlti’ that must make the dev
il sick to his stomach with envy! All
the same, Wait.v, my cow ain't be
havin’ herself any belter'n usual.
She's been rampagin’ since sun up.
I’ve seen mother chasin’ her out o'
Mis' Day's garden patch twice a’ready!
It seems real good an' homey to see
you settln' there sewin' while I'm
workin’ at Ihe bench. Cephas is down
to the store, so I s'pose your father's
off somewheres?"
Perhaps the June grass was a little
greener, the buttercups yellower, the
foliage more lacey, Ihe sky bluer, be
cause Deacon Baxter had taken his
luncheon in a pall under the wagon
sent and departed on an unwilling
journey to Moderation, his object be
Ing to pres:, the collection of some
accounts too long overdue. There was
something tragic In the fact, Waitstill
thought, that whenever her father left
the village for a whole day. life at
once grew brighter, easier, more hope
ful. One could breathe freely, speak
one's heart out, believe in the future,
when father waa away.
The girls had harbored many delight
ful plans at early breakfast. As It was
Saturday, Patty could catch little Hod
Boynton If he came to (he bridge on
errands ns usual, and If Ivory could
spare Idm for an hour at noon they
would tnke their luncheon and eat it
together on the river bank ns Patty
had promised him. At the Inst, mo
ment, however. Deacon Baxter had
turned around In the wagon and suid:
‘‘Patience, you go down to the store
and have a regular housocleanln’ in
the stockroom. Git Cephas to lift what
you can't lift yourself, move every
thing In the place, sweep and dust It.
scrub flip floor, wash the winder and
muke room for the new stuff that
they'll bring up from Mllltown 'bout
noon. If you have any time left over
put. new papers on the shelves out
front and dean up ami flx tho show
winder. Don’t stand round gabbin'
with Cephas, and see’t he don’t waste
time that's paid for by me. Tell him
he might dealt up the terhnecer stains
round the stove, black It and cover It
up for the summer if he ain't too busy
servin’ eust'mera.”
“The whole day spoiled!” wnlled Uah
ty. flinging herself down In the klteli
en rocker. "Vatber's powers of inven
tion heat anything 1 ever saw! That
stockroom could have been cleaned any
time this month, and it's 100 heavy
work for tno anyway; It spoils my
hands grtibMng around those nasty,
atloky, splintery boxes and barrels. In
atead of being out of doors I've got to
tie shut up in that smelly, rummy, to
baceoy, salt-Ashy, peppermlnty place
with Cephas Cole! He won't have a
pleasant morning, I can tell you! I
shall snap hla head off every time he
speaks to me “
“So I would!" Wnltstlll answered
composedly. "Everything Is so clear
ly hla fault that I certainly would work
PIT my teni|ier on Cephas! Still, I can
think of u wwy to make matters come
out right. I've got n great basket of
mending that must he done, and you
rentemlier there's a choir rehearsal for
the new nutheni tbla afternoon, but
anyway I cun help a little on the clean
ing Then you can make Rodman do a
few of the odd Jotis; It will be a nov
elty to Idm. And Cephas will work
his Angers to the bone for you, as you
well know. If you treat him like a hu
man being.”
"All right!” cried t'atty Joyously, her
mood changing In an instant. “There’s
Rod coming over the bridge now. Toss
me my gingham apron and the scrub
bing brush and the pall and the tin of
soap and the cleaning cloths. Let's
see. The broom's down there, so I've
got everything. If I wave a towel
from the store pack up luncheon for
three. You cotne down, and bring
your mending. Then when you see
how I'm getting ou we can consult.
I'm going to take the 10 ceuta I've

wholesale price, with fumtly discount
subtracted from that. Cephas would
treat me to cumly to a minute, but If I
let him we'd have to aak him to the
picnic, lioodtiy!" And the volatile
creature darted down Ihe bill siuglng
"There'll be soniethiug In heaven for
children to ilo" at the top of her
healthy young lungs.
The waving aigual a little later ou
showed tlmt Rodman could go to the
picnic, the fact being that he was huv
tug a holiday from 11 o'clock until 2.
and Ivory was cuing to drive to the
bridge at noon anyway, ao hla permla
