CHAPTER XII.

It was 10 o'clock on the evening Of
the election in Ossian. About the
headquarters of Walter Bedight the
followers of the victorious representa-
tive were clamoring for their chosen
leader-and among the voters were
innumerable women who had fought
shoulder to shoulder with their
brothers at the ballot box.
Mrs, Holcomb, the president of the
Allied Women's clubs, followed by a
bevy of workers, passed through the
crowd and sent in her card. The door
was opened to admit them.
Bedight came graciously forward, 2
smile Of welcome upon his face.
Congratulations Mr.. Bedight,' said
Mrs. Holcomb, "and let me introduce
Miss Vining, of Epworth."
Bedight had not seen her until then,
but as his eyes fell upon her his heart
eaped as the dry grasses to the show
cr, as the laughing water to the sun
shine. He held out his hand

Mrs. Holcomb,' she said, the roses
mounting to her cheeks, and then the
crowd surged in
