started up here"
The girls mind ran swiftly over the
past as she listened. The truth of the
revelation reached her instantly, ex-
planning a hundred strange things
which had puzzled her all her life.
The absence of deep affection between
herself and Lie was explained. Their
difference in habit, temperament,
thought-all became plain. But my
mother" she said at last-"who tCas

into the country, bringing you, little,
motherless babe. He always said your

tell you of her. Now am going to
let Ross know all of this as soon as
can. 1t will make whole lot of diff

She uttered all this much as a man
would have done, with steady voice
md with bright eyes. but Lee Vir-
ginia could feel beneath her harsh in
fiections the deep emotion which vi,
brated there. and her heart went out
toward the lonely woman in new
rush of tenderness. Now that she was
released from the necessity of eXcusing
her mothers faults-faults she could
now ignore-now that she could look
upon her as a loyal friend, she was
moved to pity and to love, and, rising,
she went to her and put her arms
about her neck and said: This won't
make any difference. am going to
stay with you and help you just the
same"
The tears came to the old woman's
eyes, and her voice broke as she re-

Lee turned back wistfully toward
the story of her mother where did
my mother meet my father? Do you
know that?"
NO, | don't. 1t was runaway

Together they zigzagged up the side
Of the hill to the north, and then, with
Cavanagh in the lead, followed by his
pack horse, they set up the long lateral
moraine which led by wide circle
through the wooded park toward the
pass. The weather was clear and cold.

He led her thoughts to pleasanter

Meanwhile Lie and Virginia, left
alone beside the fire, had drawn closer
together.
The girls face, so sweet and so pen
sive, wrought strongly upon the Older
woman's sympathy. Something of her
own girlhood came back to her. Be
ing freed from the town and all its as
sociations, she became more consider

speak, and yet she found it very hard
to begin. At last she said. with a
touch of mockery in her tone, You

RAIN BRICnIfNS
COTTON PROSfCTS.
Modega.e to HeavJ Precipitation
In Texas.

Telegraphic reports up tn g
o'clock Sunday night show that
moderate showers to heavy rains
fell in central and middle western
Texas counties on Friday and Satur-
day. In places the rainfall was
heavy enough to completely relieve
the drouth. In others it was light.
Crop accounts are excellent in east
ern and southeastern Texas and
everywhere else throughout the cot
ton belt save in Oklahomc. where
light showers have given only
partial relief. A heavy rain is re-
ported at Oklahoma City yesterday,
but the extent of territory covered
is not known. Preceding the rain
in Texas further deterioration in
the cotton crop had taken place, but
a prompt revival is now to be ex-
pected where the precipitation las

In all central and eastern states
the crop is growing very rapidly,

Up to Friday heavy rains haa
