whole story now, and you can't think
worse of me than 1 think of myself"
mo, Dick, / haven't by any means,
all of the etory yet. As you are twenty
five, l suppose this little girl, now TWEEN
ty-one, has been hoping and trusting in
you for the past six years. Very likely
she's never permitted herself another
lover. Why, it's pathetic Every year
she has thought maybe you would come
back; she has never had suspicion of
you; she has dreamed about you and
prayed for you. It's burning shame
And look at you, violently attached to
every pretty girl you see, riding with
them, two at time, dancing with them,
making love to them, and dressing like a
dandy, when you ought to be in the
Green mountains, wearing butternut and
carrying Marths's milk-pail.
Dick groaned in anguish Of spirit.
"And I've always told he! couldn't
afford to come after her quite yet, Give
it to me-you can't hit me too hard but
oh do help me out of the scrape."
"Help you out Well, l should think
you would oe glad to be in it. Just to
think Of that little Vermont blossom,
tasting like cream and maple sugar, I'll
warrant, if blossoms do taste; just think
of her dropping down any minute among
all the furbelows. the frizzes, the paints
and the powders of the ladies of our
SET"
"Oh, AL don't harrow fellow so. 1
don't believe you imagine how deep I'm
in for it. There's Kate Richardson, now
when you talk about flowers, she's til
ger lily; she's real cactus; she's a tea
rose; she's magnificent, she's gorgeous,
she's radiant. Oh. Al Fishsr, can't you
see how love her 2"
"And she 2"-The question was like a
flame springiug from bed of Goals.
"Well, I've just thought never was so
in love in my life. I wasn't sure about
her, but one night about a month ago,
was carried completely away. I forgot
all about Martha, an d 1 asked her to
marry me. By George, she said she
would; and should have been too happy
altogether, if, after my first transport,
little Martha hadn't occurred to me
again. Now I'm engaged TO them both,
don't you see, and it s a deuce of mess.
l wouldn't give up Kate if could, and ]
don't see how I could give up Martha il
would"
A silence fell between the two then, in
which the iall OF cigar ash might have
echoed, and the twilight, stealing down,
came like a veil to cover silence.

much greater loss because they can not

L0Ve and Revenge

Ia one corner of the palace coach
sat a woman, young and bea4SIful,
but with a settled look of despair
upon her face and a cold, cruel gilt
ter in her eyes. She was richly and
tastefully attired, and about her WAS
that indeScribablea atmosphere which
breathed of superior education and
refined, cultivated habits and tastes.
| AS was easy to be seen, she had a
history. a gentleman who sat IN
another part of the car, an acquaint-
ance of the reporter, a sheriff OF a
Texas county, related briefly her
story. AS had been SurmiSed, the
lady had been brought up under the
best influences that great wealth
and high social standing could COM
mand. She had been blessed with
every educational advantage, having
graduated at Vassar and spent some
time in travel through European
countries. While in the Neither
lands her heart and the promise of
her hand were won by a handsome,
titled scapegrace. This was two
years ago. When she returned
to this country her lover fol-
lowed after in the course of
a few months. But meanwhile
the girls father had died and his
vast fortune had been swallowed up
IN wildcat speculations, so that the
foreigner found his promised bride
pennileSS. Like most OF his kind,
he broke off the engagement and set
about seeking more desirable ALI
ance elsewhere. He found it in the
person of a young lady living in the
same Texas town as the girl whom
he came to marry. He pressed his
suit, and the two were married and
Immediately set out for England.
The rejected girl found means to
follow them slowly but surely.
After months Of patient and per-
sistent effort she came upon them
in remote German town. The first
intimatiOn the scoundrel had of her
was the sharp, sudden crack of
pistol that sent a ball pitilessly
through his false and craven heart.
Of course, she was arrested, and then
followed weeks for trial and torture.
Finally she was declared insane,
and the authorities placed her in a
madhouse. Meanwhile a wealthy
relative, moved by a mothers tears,
followed her, and found her, secured
her release, and now she was on her
way back to her far away desolate
Texas home. Her relative was
aboard the train asleep, and the
officer was watching that she did
not do herself harm-almost a SUI
perfous, needless precautiOn, for she
was chained to the seat upon which
she sat. Underneath the silken
robes could be seen now and then
the cold metallic glitter of the
handouts upon her wrists and links
of the small but strong chain which
held her.
