The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1913-07-25
BY MABEL HERBERT URNER.

The weeks passed swiftly. The pile
of diminutive clothes in the lower
drawer of Helen's dresser grew daily.
Now and then a sharp fear clutched at
her heart. If they should never be
needed, if something should happen.
And though she fought against it,
there came to her at times still an
other fear. If the little garments
should be needed-and it, yet if She
if she should never see them worn.
She tried to keep these thoughts
from Warren. She felt that in some
way it reflected upon her womanliness
and her love for him for her to fear
the ordeal that lay before her
And yet sometimes she awoke in
the night and stared at the darkness,
her heart beating fast with the dread
of the unknown. She would not
awaken Warren;' she knew he would
reassure and comfort her if she did.
But she felt that this was something
she should fight alone.
The Thought at Night.
So many thoughts come to one at
night that would never come in the
daylight. And one that sometimes
came to Helen in spite of her efforts
to close her mind against it was: if
anything should happen to her, would
Warren-would any one ever take her
place? Would he ever
Even in her Utmost heart she shrank
from the phrase marry again" Her
thoughts never formulated in that
way-it was always would any one
take her place."
And then she would picture herself
forgotten, and some one else with him
some one he might love as much
or more; some one more beautiful,
with more charm, more power to hold
him.
And would he ever think of her?
And would this other woman be ieal-
GUS of her memory. And what would
they do with her things? He would
probably have her clothes packed
away and sent to her mother But all
the furniture they had together Sc
lected for this apartment-what would
he do with that? Could he bear TO

have it in another home with some
one else? And the signet ring she
mad given him-would he take that
off? And her picture in the back of
his watch-wOuld another picture be
there?
Torturins Herself,
And so for hours she would lie in
the darkness and torture herself as
only a very foolish little woman can.
And sometimes when the stiffness
and blackness of the night had accen-
tuated her fears and imaginings until
they were unbearable, she would leave
her bed and creep softly in Warren.
Not to awaken him, but just to be near
him-to feel the warmth and strength
OF his presence, to drive away some
of the chill fear that possessed her
One night he awoke to find her be-
side him. She was very still, but he
fell that she was not asleep, and as
he put out his hand he found the
pillow was wet.
"Helen?"
Yes" very quietly.
What is it. dear?"

You didn't awoke myself But
what is it-you haven't been crying?"
"No-no."
But he touched her face and found
the tears. He put his arm about her
There was long silence, a tender,
intimate silence; both lay looking into
the darkness.
At length he asked very gently:
Helen, are you-.afraid
She did not answer.
He drew her closer.
Are you, dear?"

wouldn't. 1t has brought us closer
tOgether-we've been so happy in

I've ever been before. Oh. Warren
whatever happens-even though
knew-stiH would not have it
changed.

canyon by the rushing waters and the
whole place swarmed with men-and
women followed and the quiet night
was raucous with wild songs. Gold,
gold, gold-that's what they all want
ed-gold. What did they care for the
peace of the valley or the calm of
the great mountain? Gold, that was
what they were after. Strange the
fever that burns us when we hear
the very name.
The other day I drove high above
the timber line.
1t was a sight to take the breath
away.
While we stood gazing the driver
spoke:

whip. There - that's Simpsons

son took $4,000 in twenty-four hours
out of that hole" and every one of
us turned our eager eyes from the
glory of the sky and the splendor of
the spreading earth and-and looked
earnestly, eagerly, with a vivid in
terest at dirty hole in the ground
because Simpson, whoever he might
be, took ten thousand dollars worth
of gold out of it once-years and years
ago.
How the Gods must laugh at our
strange infatuations!
Poor Simpson-he had his day of
delerium. What did it profit him?
He died-drunk-and raving-after

and the wife of his youth was asham-
ed to lay a flower on his dishonored
grave and the boy she named for
Simpson would rather you didn't ask
about him, if you please.
Now. if he had only watched the
Face there on the hills-the great,
calm face, and had drawn strength
and peace from that-how much bet
ter off he would have been.

You are hungry. there is plenty to

your sleeping room. Peace. Joy,
health. faith. trust, love-all these

And We laugh bitterly and turn
away-but let the hole in the ground
