CHAPTER XIII,
The Root of All Evil.


The conversation with her old friend
had upset Mrs. Ryan. These were
grievances she did not talk of to all
the world, and the luxury of such
plain speaking was paid for by a re-
awakened smart. The numb ache of
a sorrow was always with her, but her
consciousness of it was dulled in the
diversion of every days occupations.
Bringing it to the surface this way
gave it a new vitality, and when the
conversation was over and the visitor
gone it refused to subside into its old
place.
She went slowly up stairs, hearing
the low murmur of voices from the
sitting-room where Cornelia and Jack
Duffy were still secluded Even the
thought of that Observation-Disclosures
romance did not cheer her as it had
done earlier in the day. AS she had
told Cannon, she was not the woman
she had been. Old age was coming on
her and with it softening of her iron
nature. She wanted her son, her Ben
iamin, dearly beloved with all the
forces of her maturity as his father
had been with all the. glow of her
youth.
In her own room she threw aside
the lace curtains, and looking out on
the splendor of the afternoon, deter.

ant and ordered the carriage A few
minutes later, clad in rich enshroudine
black. she slowly made her way down
stairs and out to the sidewalk where
the victoria. glittering in the trim
perfection of its appointments and
drawn by pair of well-matched chest
nuts, stood at the curb.
The man on the box touched his
hat with respectful greeting and the
Chinese butler, who had accompanied
her down the steps, arranged the rug
over her knees and stepped back with
the friendly "good-b-," which is the
politeness of his race. They respected

Hasta Manana, Senora!"
She wheeled so that she faced him
and gave a short nod, then watched
him as he walked to the door Here
he turned, bowed deeply and respect
fully, and passed out into the hall, the
bamboo strands of the portiere clash
ing together behind him. A moment
later she heard the bang of the street
door.
Her two predominant sensations
were rage and triumph. 1t deepened
uci uSpcSldtiou Ol the hyduS, anu at
the same time gave her a sense Of
intimacy with them. And it showed
her her power. Standing in the mid
die of the room with her eyes still
staring at the now motionless portiere
strands, she saw, stretching away into
a limitless gilded distance, her nego-
tiations with her husbands family. If
their desire to rupture the marriage
took them thus far, where might it not
take them?

[ For a moment they looked at each
other without speaking, then she said,
her voice at the lowest note that
would reach him:

He thought she was going and
clutched the iron spikes of the fence,
calling up to her in a voice of urgent
feeling. curiously out of keeping with
the words, the first remark that came
into his head:

1t seemed to Dominick Just then
that he could not lose her. She must
stay a moment longer. Urgency that
was imploring was in his voice as
he said:
Don't go! don't go! Stay just one
moment longer! Can't you come
down and talk for minute?"
She listened, wavered. and was won
over. Without answer she turned
from the shadow Of the porch into the
light on the top Of the steps, and
from there slowly descended, her
skirt gathered in one hand, and the
other touching the baluster.
I've wanted so to see you. l came

BEGINNING of Bio Industry.

The Pietermaritzburg (NataD Cor
poration have just embarked on an
enterprise which is being watched
with interest. The enormous extent
of town lands in the Zwartkop direc-
ton have been shown to be well adapt
ed for waffle tree growing. The au-
thorities have therefore decided to
turn this land to account. for which
purpose they have already placed
about 1000 acres under cultivation,
and from all accounts the young trees
are doing splendidly. The waffle tree
is principally grown in Natal for its
bark, the tannic properties of which
are very valuable. OF late years
very big industry has been created in
connection with this tree, and if Pie
termaritzburg experiment is success
it should result in considerable re-
duction OF the city rates.

CHAPTER xII.-(Continued.)

Yet, to Berry, this hectic prospect
looked gray; all color seemed sucked
from it. 1t appeared pale and alien,
it's comfortable intimacy gone. She
was like a stranger walking in a
strange place, a forlorn, remote land,
where she felt miserable and home
sick. The sense OF being dazed was
passing from her. Walking forward
with short, careful steps, she was
slowly coming to the meaning of her
discovery adjusting herself to it.,
realizing its significance. She had an
uncomfortable sensation Of not being
able 10 control the muscles round her
mouth, so that if spoken to she would
have had difficulty in answering, and
would have been quite unable to
smile
An open carriage passed her, and
she drew aside, then mechanically
looked after it as 1t rolled forward.
There was a single figure in ia
woman. Berry could see her head over
the lowered hood, and the little para
sol she held, white with black lace
cover and having a joint in the handle.
Her eyes followed this receding head,
moving so evenly against the back
ground Of trees. 1t scared along with
out sinking or rising, with the even,
forward flight of bird, passed Han
nah and Josh and Hazel, turning to
drop on them quick looks, which
seemed, from it's elevated position and
the shortness OF the inspection, to
have something of disdain in them
AS the carriage drew near Dominick,
who walked at the head of the line
with Pearl by the hand, Berry saw the
head move, lean forward, and then, as
the vehicle overhGuled and passed
the young man, turn at right angles
and bow to him. The wheel almost
brushed his shoulder He drew back
from it with a start and lifted his hat.
Hazel, who was walking just in front
or Berry, turned and projecting her
lips so that they stood out from her
face in red circle, Kissed through
them:
old Lady Ryan," and then in a
slightly louder key:
You take a Ratchet and I'll take a
saw,
And Wen cut off the head of my
mother-in-law." r..

of his head. his hand feeling among

you've got your hat on" she called
in high key of surprise You're

Yes, l am" he answered, drawing
out the cane he wanted. Its a fine

Outside, Dominick walked slowly,
keeping to the smaller and less fire.
quented streets. 1t was a wonderful
night. as still as though the moon had
exerted some mesmeric influence upon
the earth.
He walked on, skirting the hollow,
and moving forward through streets
where old houses brooded in over
grown gardens.
That part of California Street which
crested the hill was but a few blocks
beyond him, and before his mind
would acknowledge it, his feet had
borne him that way. He thought only
to pass the Cannon house, to look at
its windows, and see their lights. AS
it rose before him, huge, pale mass
checkered with shadows, the longing
to see 1.-THE outer shell that hid his
hearts desire-passed into a keener,
concentrated agitation that seemed to
press out from his soul like a cry to
her.
The porch yawned black behind pill
lars that in the daytime were painted
wood and now looked like temple col
umns wrought in marble. Dominick's
glance, sweeping the lines of vel
lowed windows, finally rested on this
cavern Of shadow, and he approached
stealthily, as a robber might, his body
close to the iron fence. Almost be-
fore his eyes had told him, he knew
that woman was standing there,
leaning against the balustrade that
stretched between the columns. A
climbing rose spread in a nothing of
| darkness, over the wall beside her.
Here and there it was starred with the
small white faces Of blossoms AS
the young man drew near she leaned
over the balustrade, plucked one of
the blossoms, and, slowly shredding
the leaves from the stem, stretched
out her hand and let them fall, like a
languid shower of silver drops, to the
grass.
She bent over the balustrade to look
at them, and in doing so, her eyes
encountered the man below.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1913-06-13

The evening was warm, like the early
summer in other climates; and Dom
mick, walking slowly and watching
the great yellow sphere deepening in
color as it swan majestically upward,
thought of evenings like this in the
past when he had been full of the
Joy of life and had gone forth in the
spirit of love and adventure.
The determination to accept his fate
which had been with him on his re-
turn from Antelope had of late been
shaken by STRINGS Of rebellion. Up
lifted by the thought Of his love for
a woman hopelessly removed from
him, but who would always be lode
star to worship reverently and to
guide him up difficult paths, he had
been able to face his domestic trag-
edy with the high resolution of the
martyr. But this exalted condition
was hard to maintain in the friction
of daily life with Berry.
Tonight, the period of ill humor
seemed over. Berry was not only once
again her animated self, she was al
most feverishly garrulous.
Fearful of angering her, or, still
worse, Of arousing her suspicious,
Dominick bore her talk with all the
fortitude he had, but he rose from the
table with every nerve tingling, rasped
and CALLED to the limit Of endurance.
He did not come into the den i'm
mediately but roamed about, into the
parlor, down the passage. and into
his own room.
Aren't you coming into the DEM"
she called, as she heard him pacing
steadily along the passageway.
NO." he called back. "The moon
lights shining in at every window. 1t
makes me restless. I don't feel like
sitting still"
She sat on the divan, paper spread
before her face, but her eyes were
slanted sidewise, unblinking in the abb
sorption Of her attention. Suddenly
she heard a rafting sound which she
knew to be from the canes and UNI
brellas in the hat-rack She cast
away the paper, and, drawing herself
to the edge Of the divan, peered down
the passage. Dominick was standing
