Indiana The Lost Romance {Continued from page 41) THE honeymoon of Allen Erskine and his bride was as rich with romantic happiness as Sylvia's heart could desire and so passed in equal joys the first year of their married life. As a rising young physician Allen made rapid progress and growing reputation. There were times when the call of duty and the call of love conflicted but they faced their little daily problems bravely and with common sense that is not common at all. And then came Allen Erskine, Jr., a loving child of loving parents. Five years slipped by, bringing their inevitable changes and the accumulation of the little things of life that, like the dust of years, dim the windows that look into the Garden of Romance. The final issue seemed to come when an opportunity arose for Allen to advance his medical fame by participation in a famous case just at a time made inopportune and unfortunate in its interference with a planned excursion to San Francisco. Sylvia, worn and weary of the mending and household accounting and tiresome details of the business of living, had counted largely on this trip. To Allen his profession was everything. There was conflict and bitter words and tears. At this juncture, right into the middle of this scene in fact, came Aunt Betty from peaceful La Acacia. Little Allen, now called "Junior," was trying his best to play on the floor and be happy, despite his child's sense of something wrong. Sylvia tried to dry her eyes and smile as of old when Aunt Betty came in. And Allen tried to be busy, whistling in pretended unconsciousness that was more than a betrayal. Aunt Betty pulled them together. She was cheerful, firm and determined. They were to her just children. "Come now — tell me all about it." And like children they tried to tell the story — each with a side. "It isn't giving up the trip for your work that I mind, "sobbed Sylvia. "It's knowing the Romance is dead — you've stopped caring! " Aunt Betty laughed at them and stopped the argumentative recital, "So Romance and Love are both dead! And life is hopeless!" Her air was one of mock despair. "Why, my dears," Aunt Betty went on, "you have let the little things of life cover up your romance until you think it is lost — but really the only thing you have lost is your sense of humor." Sylvia started to interrupt, tears coming to her eyes again in a flood. "No— don't say a word." Aunt Betty's manner was commanding. "I want you two to visit me — just you two alone, and you will find your lost Romance where you found it first — in my garden." "You think we can?" Sylvia's manner was hopeful and hopeless both at once. "Of course — sillies!" Aunt Betty's confidence was encouraging. Allen and Sylvia tried their best when they arrived at Aunt Betty's for their visit alone, and with Allen, Jr., left behind in the care of Matilda, the maid. But the first evening at La Acacia found Allen stretched out on a sofa by the fire in a most unromantic attitude, smoking a pipe and reading a newspaper when Sylvia came down, daintily gowned in an evening dress. Allen did not notice her. Sylvia wandered out into the patio and seated herself on a bench, a garden rose in her hand. She started to put the rose in her hair, then dropped her hand again in a hopeless attitude. What was the use? She sat there dejected.
