iIeved that Miss Carney loved me, I
had soon argued myself into an oppo-
site way of thinking on the ground,
as l have said before, that her feel
ings toward me were Influenced and
magnified by her present anxiety and
distress. Now, however, after consid-
ering the matter through the long
hours of the night until my brain
fairly reeled and l was sick at heart
at the thought of my brutal behavior,
l was at last able to see things IN q
right light.
Miss Carney had given me every
evidence of her regard that she
could give and still preserve he- dig
ninty and womanllness. She had
doubtless realized the difficulties Of
my position, and she had taken into
account that her brothers absence
served as an added reason for my
silence, and SO she had met me more
than half way and yet had remained
silent.
She had even permitted me to kiss
her hand, and then, on the first occa-
sion that offered, she had given me
an opportunity to say the words that
l owed to her if she would preserve
her self-respect and not consider that
l mad trifed with her in a most
CT lel and unmanly way. And still
| had remained silent. in an egotis-
.tical belief that my attitude was chiv-
alrous and commendable when, in
fact, it was only Quixotic and brutal
ly unkind
Now, she could only think that I
Gid not love her. for surely she could
lot conceive that sane man would
have acted the part l did on the YER
anda unless he regarded her almost
with Indifference.
rose and paced the floor until my
head throbbed, hating myself and try
ing to smother my emotions until the
morning came and l could go to her
and beg her forgiveness.

Things About Him.

President Roosevelt and Senator Lodge,
who opposed to any encouragement
of the Fairbanks presidential BOOM Gov
Guild of Massachusetts, has twice this week
deliberately avoided any appearance in PUB
lie with the Vice President. which might
have placed him in a position where cour-
tesy would have demanded that he pay
some tribute to the Indiana man. The
governor did not even meet the Vice Pres
ident until Tuesday night. although Mr..
Fairbanks has been in Boston since Sunday
and has daily appeared at public meetings
and dinners.
Monday the governor declined an invita-
ton to meeting at Mechanics Hall where
the Vice President was also a guest. and
on the same day he avoided attending a
luncheon given to Mr.. Fairbanks by Mayor
Fitzgerald at Youngs. Lieut.. Gov Draper
acted for the governor on both occasions
Tuesday Gov. Guild hurried away from
Symphony Hall just as Vice President Fair
banks was arriving.
Tuesday night the governor gave an in
formal dinner to the Vice President at the
Algonquin Club. but he saw to it that there
was-po speech-making.
