We are in Utah now! En-

Edith! We are in Utah now! En-
brace mel"
She flung herself into his arms with
a gurgle OF bliss. The other passen-
gers gasped with amazement. This
sort Of thing was permissible enough
in a tunnel. but in the full light OF
day!
Fosdick, noting the sensation he
had created, waved his hand reas-
suringly and called across his wife's
shoulder:
Don't be alarmed, ladies' and gen.
tlemen. She's my wife!" He added
in a whisper meant for her ear alone:
AT least till We get to Nevada"
Then she whispered something IN
his ear and they hurried from the car.
They left behind them a bewtIder-
ment that eclipsed the wonder Of the
Mallories. That couple spoke to each
ether at least during the day time.
Here vas a married pair that did not
speak at all for two days and two
nights and then made a sudden and
public rush to each others arms!
DR.. Temple summed up the general
feeling when he said:
Il don't believe inswitchos. but if /
did, I'd believe that this train Is be-
witched.'
Later ne decided that Fosdick was q
Mormon elder and that Mrs. Fosdick
was probably a twelfth or thirteenth
spouse he was smuggling in from the
east. The theory was not entirely
false, for Fosdick was one of the
many victims Of the c~razy-quilt OF
American divorce codes, though he
was the most unwilling of polygamists.
And DR.. Temple gave up his theory in
despair the next morning when he
found the Fosdicks still on the train,
and once more keeping aloof from
each other.

CHAPTER XIII.
Through d Tunnel,

Mrs. Jimmie Wellington, who had
travelled much abroad and learned in
England the habit of smoking in the
corridors Of expensive hotels, had &C.
quired also the habit, as travellers do.
OF calling England freer than Amer
lea, She determined to DO her share
toward the education of her native
country, and chose for her topic, to-
bacco as a feminine accomplishment.
She had grown Indifferent to stares
and audible comment and she could
fight a protesting head waiter to a
standstill. If monuments and tablets
are ever erected to the first woman
who smoked publicly in this place or
that, Mrs. Jimmie Wellington will be
%yariously remembered ana occupy a.
large place in historical record.
The narrow confines of the women's
room on the sleeping car soon Dalled
on her, and she objected to smoking
there except when she felt the added
luxury OF keeping some other woman
outside-fuming. but not smoking.
And now Mrs. Jimmie had staked out
a claim on the observation platform.
She sat there, putting like a major
general, and in one portion Of Ne
braska two farmers fell off their agri-
cultural vehicles at the sight OF her
cigar-smoke trailing after the train.
In Wyoming three cowboys followed
her for a mile, yipping and bowling
their compliments.
Feeling the smoke mood coming on.
Mrs. Wellington invited Mrs. Temple
to smoke with her, but Mrs. Temple
felt a reminiscent qualm at the very
thought, so Mrs. Jimmie sauntered
out alone, to the great surprise OF
Ira Lathrop, whose motto was, Two
heads are better than one" and who
was apparently willing to wait till
Anne Gattle's head grew on his
shoulder.

car, followed by the purple-faced Ira,
who slammed the door with a growl:
That Wellington woman would break
up anything"
The prim little missionary toppIed
into the nearest chair: "Oh, Ira, what
will she Think"
"She can't think" Ira grumbled
''In a little while she'll know"
Don't you think we'd better tell
everybody before they begin to talk ?"

In their flight forward they passed
the mysterious woman in the state
room. They were too full of their
W mystery to give thought to hers.
Mrs. Fosdick went timidIy proving
toward the observation car. suspect
ing everybody to be a spy, as Mallory
suspected everybody to be a clergy
man in disguise.
As she stole along the corridor
past the mems clubroom she saw her
husband-her h~ere-and-there husband
YEARLY counting the telegraph
posts and summing them up into
miles. She tapped on the glass and
signalled to him, then passed on.
He answered with a look, then pre-
tended not to have noticed, and wait
ed a few moments before he rose with
an elaborate air OF carelessness. He
b%eckoned the porter and said:
Let me know the moment we en-
ter Utah, will you?"
"Yassah. Well be comm along

through the big Aspen tunnel, after
that, beto' long, We splounce into old
Utah"
Don't forget" said Fosdick, as he
s%auntered out. Ashton perked up his
ears at the promise Of a tunnel and
kept his eye on his watch.
Fosdick entered the observation
room with a hungry look in his
luscious eyes. His now-and-then wife
put up a warning finger to indicate
Mrs. Whitcomb's presence at the
writing desk.
Fosdick's smile froze into a smirk
of Formally and he tried to chill his
tone as if he were speaking to a total
stranger.
Good afternoon"
Mrs. Fosdick answered with equal
ice: Good afternoon. Won't you sit
down."
Thanks. Very picturesque seen
cry, isn't it?"
g., Isn't it?' Fosdick seated himself,
looked about cautiously. noted that
Mrs. Whitcomb was apparently alb
sorbed in her letter, then lowered his
voice c~onfdentially. His face kept up
a strained pretense OF Indifference
but his whisper was passionate with
longing:
Has my poor little wiley missed
ner poor old hubby?'
"Oh, so much!" she whispered.
