"What do you mean by that?" shout
ed Strong.
II mean that stayed with you and
your narrow minded congregation be-
fore because believed you needed me.
But now this girl needs me more. She
needs me to protect her from just such
injustice as yours"
"You'd better be protectin' yourself,
That's my advice to you"
II can do that without your advice"
"Maybe you can find another church
with that circus ridin' girl a-hangin
round your neck"
"He's right" cried Polly. "You
couldn't" She chung to the pastor in
terrified entreaty. "You. couldn't get
another church. They'd never, never
forgive you. It's no use. You've got to
let me go! You've got tor

him. "God is greater than any church
or creed. There's work to be done
everywhere-his work."

his head thrown high. ''This child has
opened new world to me. She has
shown me broader, deeper humanity.
She and will find the way together"
ut won't be an easy one, I'll promise
you that" Strong turned to go.
''Tm not looking for the easy way"
Douglas called after him; then he turn,
ed to draw Polly's arm within his, but
Polly had slipped from his side to fol-
low the deacon.
"Oh, please, Deacon Strong, please!'
she pleaded. .'You won't go away like
that. He'll be all right If you'll only
wait. Pm not coming back. I'm not
honestly. I'm going on with the show
tonight, and I'm going this time for
ever.'
"You are going to stay here with
me!' cried Douglas.
mo, no. Mr.. John! I've made up my
mind, and won't be to blame for your
unhappiness." She faced him firmly
now. Il don't belong to your world,
and don't want to try any more. I'm

"What!" cried Jim in alarm. He
faced about and saw Eloise. BE guess
ed the truth. A few quick strides
brought him to the entrance curtains.
He threw them back and looked into
the ring.
my God! Why don't Barker stop
herr"
"What is it?" called Douglas. He
forgot the deacon In his terror at Jim's
behavior, and Strong was able to slip
away unnoticed.
'She's goin' to ride! She's goin' to
ride Barbarianv'
Douglas crossed to his side and
looked.
Polly was springing on to the back
Of Barbarian. He was poorly trained
horse, used by the other girl for more
snowy but less dangerous feats than
Polly's.
"She's goin' through her regular turn
with him. She's trying to break her
neck" said Jim. ''She wants to do it.
It's your fault" he cried, turning upon
Douglas with bloodshot eyes. He was
half insane. He cared little whom he
wounded.
"why can't we stop herT cried
Douglas, unable to endure the strain.
He took one step inside the entrance.
mo, no; not thatv,' Jim dragged
him back roughly. IF she sees you
now.it will be the end" They watch
ed in silence. "She's over the first
part" Jim whispered at last.
Douglas drew back, his muscles
tense, as he watched the scene inside
the ring. Eloise stood at the pastors
side horror stricken at Polly's reckless
behavior. She knew Barbarian. It
was easy to guess the end.
"She's comm to the hoops" Jim
whispered hoarsely.
Barbarian don't know that part.
never trained him." the other girl said
Polly made the first leap toward the
hoops. The horse was not at fault; it
was Polly. She plunged wildly. The
audience started. She caught her foot
ing with an effort. One, two, three
hoops were passed She threw herself
across the back Of the horse and hung
head downward as he galloped around
the ring. The band was playing loud
~; the people were cheering. She rose
to meet the last two hoops.

slip Of a girl in his arms just as she
was about to sink fainting beneath
the horses hoofs.
Barker brought the performance to
a halt with crack Of his whip. The
audience was on tiptoe. White faced
clowns and gayly attired acrobats
crowded around Polly and the pastor.
Douglas did not see them. He had
come into his own.
"He's bringin' her out" whispered
Eloise, who still watched at the en-
trance. Jim dared not look up. His
head was still in his hands.

She stepped aside as Douglas came out
Of the tent, followed by a swarm Of
performers. He knelt on the soft grass
and rested Polly's head upon his knee.
The others pressed about them. It
seemed to Douglas that he waited
hours; then her white lids Quivered
and opened, and the color crept back
to her lips.

failure to get out Of his way.
'That's because need you so much,
Polly, that God won't let you go away
from me-" He drew her nearer to
him, and the warm blood that shot to
her cheeks brought back her strength.
She rose unsteadily and looked about
her. Jim came toward her, white and
trembling.
"Au right, Pou?'
"Oh, Muvver Jimv' She threw her
self into his arms and chung to him,
sobbing weakly.
No one could ever remember just
how the audience left the big top that
night, and even Barker had no clear
idea Of how Jim took down the tents,
loaded the great wagons and sent the
caravan on its way.
When the last wagon was beginning
to climb the long, winding road of the
moonlit hill Jim turned to Polly, who
stood near the side Of the deserted
ring. His eyes Travelled from her to
the parson, who waited near her. She
was in her street clothes now, the little
brown Quakerish dress which she had
chosen to wear SO much since her re-
turn from the parsonage.
II guess won't be maxim no mis-
take this time," he said, and he placed
her hand in that of the parson.
"Goodby, Muvver Jim," faltered Pol
".
he stopped and touched her fore
head with his lips. A mothers spirit
breathed through his kiss.
''Tm glad it's like this" he said,
then turned away and followed the
long, dotted line of winding lights dis
appearing slowly over the hill.
Her eyes travelled after him.
Douglas touched the cold little hand
at her side.
II belong with them," she said, still
gazing after Jim and the wagons.
"You belong with me-" he answered
in firm, grave voice, and something
in the deep, sure tones told her that he
was speaking the truth. She lifted
one trembling hand to his shoulder
and looked up into his face.
"Wh1ther thou goest will 60; where
thou diest will I die"
He drew her into his arms.
''The Lord do so to me and more
also If aught but death part thee and
me-"
