Sallie determined TO keep the
secret of her sorrow in her own
heart. On the ocean voyage she
had cried the whole first day, and
then kissed her lovers picture,
put it down in the bottom of her
trunk, brushed the tears away and
determined the world should not
look on her suffering.
She had written Helen of her
lovers declaration, and of her hap
plness. She would find good ex-
cuse for her sorrowful face in their
separation. She knew he would
write to her, for he had said so.
and she had slipped the address
into his hand as he left the car that
night.
AT first she was puzzled 10 think
what she could do about answering
these letters so Helen would not
suspect her trouble. Then she hit
on the plan Of writing to him every
day, posting the letters herself and
placing them in her own trunk in.
stead of the post box.
He will read them some dav.
They will relieve my heart she
sadly told herself.
Helen met her ON the pier with
a cry of girlisn joy, and the first
word she uttered was:
ooh! Sallie, Bob loves me! He's
been here two weeks, and he's just
gone home, l have been in heaven.
We are engagedl'
Then I'LL kiss you again, Helen!'
She gave her another kiss.
And I've big letter at home
for you already LIS postmarked
'Hambright.' 1t came this morning
| know you will feast on it. If Bob
don't write to me faithfully III
make him come here and live in
Boston,
When Sallie got this letter, she
sat down in her room, and read
and re-read its passionate words.
There was tone of bitterness and
wounded pride in it. She strug-
gled bravely to keep the tears
back, Then the tone of The letter
changed to tenderness and faith
and infinite love that struggled
in vain for utteranee.
She kissed the name and sighed.
Now must go down and chat and
smile with Helen. She's so silly
about her own love, if I talk about
Bob she will forget l llve.'

In answer to her first letter,
CASTOR was thrilled with q new
inspiration. He sat down that
night and answered it in verse.
All the deep longings of his soul,
his hopes and fears, his pain and
dreams he set in rhythmic music.
Her mother read all his letters af-
ter Sallie. And she cried with sor-
row and pride over this poem.
"Sallie. l don't blame you for
being proud of such lover. Your
life is richly ha1lowed by the love
of such a man Your father is
wrong in his opposition. II l were
girl and held the love Of such a
man, I'd cherish it as l would my

"Sweet mother heart!" she whis-
as she smoothed the gray hair ten

Allen Mcleod had arrived in
Boston the day before and the
mornings papers We're full of an
interview with him on his brilliant
achievement in breaking the ranks
of the Bourbon Democracy in
North Carolina, and the certainty
of the success of his ticket at the
approaching election.
Mcleod sent the paper to Mrs.
Worth by special messenger, lest
she might not See it, and that eve
ming called. He asked Sallie to ac-
company him to the theatre, and
when she refused spent the eve
ming.
When her mother retired Nc,
Leod drew his seat nearer her and
again told her in burning words
his love.
"Miss Sallle, | have won the bat

destroy his faith in Sallie's loyal.

He wrote to the general that he

sallie to write another line to
CASTOR and closed saying:

CASTOR watched and waited in
vain for the letter he was to re-

sank with doubt and fear. What

unseen hand2 He felt he should
choke with rage as he thought of
the infamy of such a warfare.
