1t seems the prospector, for years,
had been secretly saving, a very few
dollars each year, toward the price of
diamond drill. The fund grew with
pitiful slowness; in the year Of the
wedding it was still several dollars
short of the requisite amount. But
out of the past two crops he had also
boarded little corn ,forsthe day of a
better price In the fall of this year
the better price prevailed. By draw
ing ever so little on the current crop
the drill fund could be completed
But there was new light in Bar
denis face.
Meanwhile Walt and Laura had a
secret of their own. In the early days
of their betrothal Laura suggested
that instead of giving each other gifts

immense value just now, when the
