At the Baden Corral

Juan Sylvia leaned from his saddle
and gazed into the lovely face lifted
to his own.
why weren't you at the corrals to-
day, Bonita? watched all day and
not one sight OF your beautiful face
rewarded me-"
mo, senor, I was busy in the gar
den. You must remember that this is
violet time, and the time is short, so
they must be watered and gathered
each day. But thought of you
of YOU"
Then, with swift blush, she
dropped her eyes shyly, and-saw her
shabby shoes and coarse skirt
When she looked up again, Juan
was shutting his lips firmly. He had
started to speak, but now, sitting
erect, he gathered up the RATA which
hung from his saddle and remarked
cheeriy:
well, the father must surely let
you come tomorrow. We are to have
a great time at the corrals, for+we-
have 500 new cayuses and a newspa-
per reporter will be there to write Up
ard take cut pictures. Maybe you
would like to see how she does it?'
"She?" questioned Bonita breath
lessly. "Is she Dretty?"
mo, I believe not" answered Juan
carelessly. AT least-well, you can
see her for yourself tomorrow.
Then swinging the sombrero from
his handsome head, he put the spurs
to his horse and was soon out of
sight.
Bonita stood with tightly clasped
hands, watching the fog as it rolled up
from the sea to swallow the strong,
erect figure on the galloping horse. ..

see this girl. Something tells me-

Disappointment, wounded pride and
a fiery temper gave the black horse
hard run, and it took only an hour to
reach Bonita's garden, where, in the
twilight, she gathered violets.
On an east-bound express, a woman
looked backward toward the setting
sun and murmured:
Il wonder if the girl was right?

You could live without him-could
forget him-but I'LL will die"
Mildred Ayres drew away from the
frantic clasp and the tragic eyes up
turned to hers: She almost wished
that she had given Juan her answer
at once.
She had decided in her heart that it
should be "yes," but with woman's
perversity, she had wished to defer
surrender. And now
"He was mine always before you
came. Never, even when he went
away to school, did he care for an.
other woman-only me. And now, if
you will go away, he will forget-and
come back to me"
That night Mildred Ayres reasoned
with herself.
"The girl is right. I do not love him
as she does. And I can live without
him. love him for what he can give
me-surcease from anxiety, RESPONSE
bility and drudgery. She loves him
for his own splendid self. l might tire
of him, or tire him. She never would.

Then she wrote curt little note,
which belied the tears she had to wipe
away lest they blot the words.

note crushed in his burning palm, Juan
