CHAPTER XVIH.-(ContinuedJ
Mr.. Wayne's singing school would close
on Thursday evening. Or Friday the
camp meeting would begin.
The singing teacher was urged to stay
and ''help with the singin'" on Sunday,
and he very kindly consented to do so.
Mrs. Boone strongly urged Naiinie :"
attend singing school on the last two
nights of its session, and learn the hymns
that were being practiced for use on the
following Sabbath. But Mamie was STUD
born, and absolutely refused to so.
Il couldn't take an interest IN It on
Dicks account" she said. "And, then
| don't want to see Mr.. Wayne. | wish
| might never set eyes on him again.
He's insulted me, and haven't spoken TO
him since, and l don't intend to. He's
a fine person TO lead the singing at a
camp meeting. isn't hep

But Nannie's thoughts were more about
the bread she was getting ready to carry
to Dick that night than they were about
the Bread of Life, and it is doubtful il
she heard very much of what her mother
was saying.

him fatter himself that she cared very
much if he did not come TO see her.
Just then some o,le called him away
for moment.
1t was Bill Green.
When their consultation was ended,
j they stood and chatted together for mo-
ment. Then Rhoda heard Bill say:
IIIIs,iII t ben havin' a tiff with Rhody
hev ye? Seems Of she looked kind o
riled up about suthin' or uther''
Il think she doesn't like it very well
because haven't been to see her lately"
answered Wayne, with laugh that
brought the angry color to Rhoda's face.
Il did 60 there quite often. as perhaps
you know; but / saw the girl was in
clined to take everything in dead earnest,
and I've rather fought Shy of her since.
\ nice sort of a girl TO help one pass
away time when it hangs heavy. | Won
der you don't lay siege to her heart,
Green. Shed make you a charming
wife,
| Wayne had no idea that Rhoda could
hear what he was saying. But she heard
every word of it, and her eyes fairly blaz-
ed with anger under cover of her sun
bonnet
"Oh, you miserable wretch she said
under her breath. Il despise you. /
hate you! l wish l could make you feel
how much contempt | have for you! To
talk like that about me to such a thing
as Bill Green! Oh, you puppy"
Mere printed words fail to express the
intensity of wsa.h that was concentrat-
ed in Rhoda's tone Girls with a nature
| fl-n L.,4 fkor " a.
| they can do anything else. In much less
time than it has taken to tell it her lk-
ing for Wayne had changed to hatred and
repugnance. She saw now that what
| Dick had told her was true. There could
be no mistake, no doubt, fer she had the
truth from Wayne's own lips. He had
made her his dupe. lie h;.d made n play
thing. FOOL of her.
IF | ever get a chance to pay you
| back, I'll do t.'' she said, with a flashing
! glance of scorn at him. And she meant
it.
The chance was nearer at hand than
she dreamed of.
When Wayne came back to the seat he
had vacated, from his interview with Bill
Green, she turned her back upon him
squarely, and ignored every attempt Of
his at conversation with lofty but silent
contempt, much to his vexation, and con-
sequently to her delight.
Some new arrivals necessitated a
change of seat. This brought Rhoda next
to Samanthy and Mamie.
You don't like Mr.. Wayne as well as
you used to, do you?" she whispered to
Mamie.
Rhoda was never given to beating
about the bush.
Il don't like him very WELL" answered
Mamie, cautiously.
OF late she and Rhoda had not been
very intimate-rather cool to each other,
in fact-and she was at loss to under
stand what Rhoda's tactics were; there
fore she thought it best to be rather re.
served in her communications until her
object in starting such conversation
became clear.
Il just hate himp' said Rhoda. Il
never saw any one who looked meaner
to me than he does"
I'm glad of it, said Mamie, sudden
~ waxing cordial. L don't believe you
hate him any worse than | dor
Thus it was that hatred-a feeling that
should not have been tolerated at camp
meeting made better friends of these
two girls than they had been for some
time before.

her from being a very comical figure as

ened his cowardly heart, because thes

not, at such a time as this, deny it, and
the excitement of the occasion had a

very susceptible to. and it had fastened

So the struggle between good and evil
went on to the accompaniment of strange
sights and sounds which made the scene
seem fantastic and unreal enough, to the
to be a fragment from a dream.

inee for governor. are not 10 accord;
!. that Holt Is not putting much life Into
the campaign. except so far as lcgisla-

( oil comes about through Hollis senator

not please the Taylor county boss.
There Is no question but what Col. Me-
Graw Ia the undisputed leader OF the
1 party, and that he will again try TO
4 break into the United States senate. A
Z large part OF the delegates nominated
have declared In his favor, and lie
thinks that Holt is invading his par
tlcular preserves In aspiring to repre-
sent the state In the upper house OF
Congress.
We do not think. however. that
Judge Holt will have much show os
against Col. McGraw II the, Democrats
have majority In the, next legislature.
Nevertheless, Col, mcGraw is quite
foxy. While he Is corrallIng all the
delegates he can lay his hands on, he
s is speaking words OF hope In the ears
OF ex-Senators Camden and Davis. and
encouraging them 10 believe that there

hope he may possibly get them to tap
their barrels, and aid him In the elec-
ton OF delegates he has prp-cmptc6 to
satisfy his own ambition. We do not
know how far he has aroused the polIt-
,ical vanity of Davis and Camden, but
we believe they ara quite receptive. aud
there Is no man In the state who can
be so amooth and plausible In matters
political. when he tries, than Col. John
