At that period In her reflections
Enid Maitland saw a great light.
The woman had not loved her hus-
band after all, she had loved anoth-
sr. That passion OF which he had
dreamed had not been for him. Be a
strange chain Of circumstances Enid
Maitland held in her hand the solu-
tion Of the problem. She had but
to give him these letters to show
him that his golden image had stood
upon feet OF clay, that the love up
on which he had dwelt was not his.
Once convinced OF that he would
come quick to her arms. She cried
. prayer Of blessing on old Kirkby
and started to her feet, the letters
In hand, to call Newbold back to her
and tell him, and then she stopped.

spect for the binding conditions and

nay Providence, had put the honor
Of this woman, her rival. in her

the Colonel views the single tax prop
osition. A fac-simile of it is printed
on this page 1t is not to be presumed
for a moment that Col. Roosevelt
would allow publicity of his favorable
views OF the single tax proposition
unless he is sincere in advocating it.,
Those who believe in Col. Roosevelt
do not doubt his sincerity; hence il
is fair TO say that what is quoted
from him in the circular reproduced
here. 1t came from him and is ap'
proved by him. II is a part of his
Confession of Faith"
There is no doubt whatever that
Col. Roosevelt is single,taXer. In
fact he has been regarded for years
as a convert to that theory of taxa
tion. Should he be elected President
(which, by the way, is hardly posi-
ble) he would undoubtedly urge con.
gress to commit the national govern
ment to the single tax proposition,
Missouri farmers certainly do not
want to follow him in this fad, no
matter what other of his alleged re-
forms they may feel like endorsing.

CHAPTER XVIII.
The Strength Of the Weak.

Although Enid Maitland had spoken
bravely enough while he was there,
when she was alone her teart sank
into the depths as she contemplated
the dreadful and unsolvablo dilemma
in which these two lovers found them
selves so unwittingly and inextricably
involved. 1t was indeed curious and
bewildering situation. Passionate
alteration for the other rose in each
breast like the surging tide of a
mighty sea, and like that tide upon
the shore 1t broke upon conventions,
ideas, ideals and obligations intangi.
Bile to the naked eye, but as real as
those iron coasts that have withstood
the waves assaults since the worlds

The man had shaped his life upon a
mistake. He believed absolutely in
the unquestioned devotion of a WON.
an to whom he had been forced to
mete out death In an unprecedented
and terrible manner. His unwilling
ness to derogate by his own conduct
from the standard Of devotion which
he believed had inhabited his wife's
bosom, made 1t impossible for him to
allow the real love that had come into
his heart for this new woman to have
free course; honor, pride and self-re.

objection to being relieved Of burdens,

has had enough experience in political

later triumphs in spite of it.
Moreover Sle same interests which are
directing the fight against single tax
legislation in older communities would
as strenuously fight against trial of it

it would be so great a success that further
attempts to deceive any one concerning

1t was not so simple, however The
fact that Newbold cherished this mem.

SO hard not to give way, entitled her
to Enid Maitlands admiration and de-
manded her highest consideration as

Despite the complete tie-up of the
