They reached their destination at
nightfall and found horse and buggy
beside the sluice and a doctor there,
chatting at the delay.

Before leaving he explained that
Nelly had received full instructions
how to take care Of her father. The

less trained nurse were sent from
Utica, and in that rough cabin she
would be but little more eff1cacious
than Nelly herself. After few minor
instructions, and having told them that
the quarantine would probably remain
in force for at least one month, the
doctor jumped into his buggy and
drove rapidly toward the uepot.
AS the two men stood somewhat
sheepishly outside the cabin, Nelly
emerged The girl appeared trans
formed: the crisis seemed to have pro-
duced in her store of resolution and
resource.
I'm going to take charge, Joe," she
said. ''You better start a fire. Mr..
Jocelyn, you'll help us, won't your"
But into Jocelyn's head the germ
of an idea had come. He had wronged
both Joe and the girl, If unconsciously
so; now it was his duty toiremedy the
wrong so far as lay in his power. And
just as Nelly had been attracted to him
in his stories of heroic deeds, SO now
he could change her admiration into
contempt by displaying quite opposite
qualities.
"I'd like to help" he stammered.
s'but I don't go inside that cottage,

"Why?" she asked, looking at him
in surprise.
"Pm-I'm afraid of smallpox" he
muttered. isn't it very catehing?'
He saw Joe Porter looking at him
in wonder.
"You won't help my father?" asked
the girl in establishment. you're not
afraid, Mr.. Jocelyn?"
"I'm not going to risk ~ life" said
Jocelyn sheepishly. "I'm visitor

it might be different"
The girl turned on her heel without
a word, leaving him standing there.
Joe set about making a fire; then he
prepared the meal, while Jocelyn sat

things in time for you to catch the
train
Jocelyn returned no answer and the
guide, bending to his oars, pulled the
boat to the bank and grounded her.
Jocelyn stepped out and the men stood
facing each other.
WELL" Porter asked, what is it to
be?"
But before Jocelyn could answer a
figure emerged through the under
brush and hailed them, stopping just
within shouting CALL It was the sta
ton agent.
Keep back he shouted. you got
to go back to the sluice gates, both
OF you, and stay there till fresh orders
come.''
what do you mean?' cried Jocelyn.
s'Whose orders?''
Board of health's," shouted the
agent. BILL Farland's sick with the
smallpox and you're all quarantined.
The doc seen him yesterday night and
posted quarantine notices. Keep back,
keep back; I amt going to risk my
life. Go back to the gates. It's a
year in prison if you break quaran-

He disappeared upon the run. For
awhile the two men stared at each 9TH
er in silence At last, beckoning to
Jocelyn to follow him, Joe Porter took
up his pack and preceded him along
the trail homeward.

So the more temptation came the
more assiduously he played his part.

Jocelyn, catching his eyes unexpected
ly, seemed to detect puzzled look
in them, as though his secret were not
wholly unsupported. One thing he
could do, however, and that was to
supply the camp with fish. He hshed
diligently, bringing in good catches
each evening which he would fling
down at the threshold of the cottage,
keeping as far away as possible. And
at night, taking his blankets. he would
remove as far as he could from the
danger zone to rest under the stars.
On the sixth day the doctor came
again. The patient had progressed ad-
mirably: much of his time he had
spent in the cabin. He seemed on the
highroad to recovery, but none was
prepared for the physicians encourag-
ing words.
HE amt goin' to die, is he?" asked
Porter, while the girl lowered near in
breathless anxiety.
"Die?" cried the doctor. why, he's
nearly we'll. He'll be we'll in week.
You can let him go about his regular
business now; it's as mild case as
have ever known"
'And when will you remove the
uuarantine?" asked Jocelyn anxiously.

the doctor.
"How's he going to pay?"
"Bill Farland? o, he'll work that

"Send in the bill to me-" said Joce-
Ign, and gave the doctor his card.

Jocelyn?" asked Porter, his eyes fixed
steadily on Jocelyn's face.
Meaning
II ask you whether it is your pur-
pose to marry her, sir. You may have
known that some words have been
said between me and her upon that
subject. 1t was our intention to get
married next fall. I'm not gentle
man as you are, Mr.. Jocelyn, and
guess my ways is as rough as my
clothes, and If the child thinks more
of you than she does of me don't
have no hard feelings toward her. But
it don't seem somehow natural to me,
sir, that rich city man such as your
self would want to marry a girl of
poor mountain folks like hers. And
SO ask you again, sir, whether you
intend to marry her."
Nothing has been said or suggested
about our marrying, Porter" Jocelyn
said calmly, but no longer making any
pretense of casting. Miss Nelly was
distressed and I was trying to soothe
her"
Porter nodded his head slowly.
Sim country bred, Mr.. Jocelyn," he
said, "and l. don't know city folks
ways. But what say is this and
he brought down his fist into his palm
with a resounding thump-"W when a
gentleman puts his arms round girl
and says no word about marrying her.
why, he don't mean no good by her."
sSWell, what are you going to do
about 1t, Porter?" asked Jocelyn.
This is what I'm aegoing to do, sir"
answered the guide. You're going to
leave by tonight's train"
s'I'l1 be damned If l do,". said Joce-
Ign.
''And I'll be damned, in this world
and the next, If you don't" said the
guide. For you'll never speak to that
girl again, if it means murder. You
think you're a fine hero with your
tales Of the battles you've seen and
you're just common lump of mud"
Jocelyn wound up his line and dis
jointed his rod.
"Since you seem in an unpleasant
mood, Porter" he said, you may
take me home''
'I'll take you to the Shore" the
guide rejoined, land I'll put you on

the torrent roaring beneath him. Dur
ing the supper nobody spoke word.
But afterward, when Joe had gone
inside the hut to speak with the sick
man, Nelly turned to Jocelyn suddenly.
''You-wasn't you joking?' she fall
tered, turning upon him a look full of
anxiety. Her blue eyes were distressed
and fearful.
Not by jugful," Jocelyn answered,
drawing back from the fire. Keep
back, Miss Nelly. You might have
caught some of the infection"
20, amt a-going to catch you, Mr..
Jocelyn,' she answered with intense
scorn Don't be afraid of me. You
shall be looked after, Mr.. Paying
Guest, just as though father wasn't
sick and likely to die-don't let that
trouble you And she swept back
into the cottage.
No man likes to assume the coward,
and Jocelyn was sorely tempted dur
ing the days that ensued to go back
upon his purpose and display his prop
er qualities. Then, too, with this new
strength that had come to the girl
during her time of trouble, she seemed
to have acquired fresh charm and
dignity. Her very looks of scorn In
creased the young mans admiration:
her courage and cleverness impressed
his mind Jocelyn knew these symp-
toms from of old time; he was falling
in love with her.

RESUME sCHEFTELs TRIAL

New York, Jan. S.-Following an
alleged attempt to tamper with the
jury, which caused a delay pending
an investigation, the members of the
brokerage and promotion firm of B. H.
Scheftels & Co., of which George Ora
ham Rice was the master mind, will
again be placed on trial today. Rice
has been confined in the Tombs since
December 26, Federal Judge Ray de-
claring that the presence of Rice
during the trial, and, if necessary,
thereafter, can only be secured and
the jury protected against unlawful ap.
proaches and attempts to corrupt by
holding him in actual custody"
Rice began his '"get rich quick" ca.
reer by selling so-called information
on the races, acquiring considerable
fortune in this way. Later he was a
prominent figure in Goldfield, New,
where he promoted various mining
companies.

secondary position. The initiative
and referendum, they assert, is para
mount to all issues.
When the 119 delegates to the con-
yention are called to order in the
house Of representatives at the state
capital here, it will be the most nota-
BILE representative of all classes of the
people of this state of any gathering
in Ohio's history. Included in the per-
sonnet of the convention will be one
former congressman. one former lieu
tenant governor. two members of the
present legislature, many former leg
islators, many former judges, several
ministers, large number OF farmers
and representatives from commercial
and industrial walks of life. The dem.
ocrats have the majority, with So dele
gates. The republicans have as dele
gates, the Independents and the So
cialists 8.
Under the law providing for the con-
vention the oldest member present will
preside for the purpose of temporary
organization. This honor will fall to
the lot of Judge Dwyer of Dayton, who
is in his eighty-first year.

bunch of black paradise aigrettes.
There is a return to favor of the
dressy waist of lace or net and its
variations. Cream and ecru shades
prevail, and about an equal proportion
of light and heavy laces are seen in
the combination. Lace will be used
for the best evening dresses. Several
tones will be used together as well
as several kinds of lace. Blond lace
in half heavy meshes will be worn.
A most lovely evening princess gown
recently seen was made with the top
of cream maline lace. The tunic was
an extension of the same, and this
was over a fiesh-pink Chantilly lace,
which in turn was put over a black
chiffon skirt. Everything was in
points. The tunic was cut in points
finished with tassels, and the train
fell in two points at the side and had
black tassels. Imitation laces are now
made with such perfection of skill as
almost to equal the handmade sorts.
1t is good plan to study laces before
buying and then select the design and
make best adapted to your needs.
Irish crochet and filet lace waists,
or crochet combined with hand en-
broidery, have been worn recently
with the dressy velvet suits. These
waists are quite a departure from the
allover Irish crochet models previous
ly seen, as the filet and French en-
broidery on batiste are used in about
the same proportion as the crochet in
working out the garment. These CON-
binations are most effective, as the
designs are worked out in a way to
show off the different patterns to the
best advantage. Other novelty lace
waists for wear with the two-piece suit
have a cutaway coat effect beginning
at the side-front. Dresden ribbon in
suit coloring frequently finishes off
the revers, belt and cuffs.
The feather bag is novelty This
is designed to go with the feather hat,
and, while it may not be durable, it is
certainly striking.
The beaded bag Is lovelier than
ever Sometimes it is composed en-
tirely of beads, and again the beads
are worked into an embroidery design
on silk foundation.
The fur bonnet remains popular and
is trimmed with feathers or garlands
of dainty silk and gold flowers.
Earrings are no longer fad, but an
established fashion.
