feIt the sobs returning. These, how
ever, did not last long and in a mo-
ment she found herself smiling again.
Though she had hurt him. she had
saved him. tool When she whispered
this over to herself it still thrilled and
startled her. She folded the paper
and FASTENED on under the cherry
trees.
Emmaline, the negro maid was wait
ing a~nxiously on the porch. She was
thin to spareness. with a face as
brown as a tobacco leaf, restless black
eyes and wool neatly pinned and set
off by an amber comb.

Her young mistress flown and the
hot water despatched, the negro wom-
an spread a cloth on the floor and
began to cut and dress the long stalks
of the flowers. This done she fetched
bowls and vases, and set the pearly-
white clumps here and thereon the
dining-room sideboard, the hall man
tel and the desk of the li~ving-room-
till the delicate fragrance filled the
house, quite vanquishing the rose
scent from the arbors.
AS the trim colored oma moved
lightly about in the growing dusk,
with the low click of glass and muf-
fled clash of silver, the light tat-tat of
q cane sounded, and she ran to the
hall, where Mrs. cambridge was de-
scending the stairway, one slim white
hand holding the banisters under the
edge of a white silk shawl which
dropped its heavy fringes to her daint-
ily-shod feet. On the lower step she
halted, looking smilingly about at the
~blossoming bowls.
Don they smell up tn whole

her bare arms showed with a flushed
pinkness the hue of the pale coral
beads about her neck. The damp
newspaper was in her hand.
At her step her mother turned her
head: she was listening intently to
voices that came from the garden-a
child's shrill treble opposing Ran
ston's stentorian grumble.

come to fix it up, either; he's the
really truly man that owns it"
"Who on earth is that child talking
about?"
Shirley put her arm around her
mother and kissed her. Her heart
was beating quickly. 1.-THE owner has

The small book Mrs. cambridge held

"Mr. Valiant-Mr i. John Valiant.

She had crouched down on the rug In

against her mothers knee, catching
strange reddish over-tones like molten
metal, from the shaded lamp. Mrs.

She glanced at him covertly, an
noyedly sensible of the improperly
of the discussion, since the man dis
cussed was certainly his patron, may
be his friend. But his insistence had
reused a certain balky wilfulness that
would have its way. Its true I've
never seen him." she said, "but I've
read about him a hundred times in the
Sunday supplements. He's a regular
feature of the h~igh-roller section. His
idea of a good time is a dog-banquet
at Sherry's. Why, a girl told me once
that there was a cigarette named after
him-the Vanity Valiant"
Isn't that beside the point? Be-
cause he has been an idler, must he
necessarily be a-yandal?"
She laughed again. He wouldn't
call it vandalism. He'd think it de-
cided improvement to make Damory

Everything that was impulsive and
explosive in John Valiant's nature
came out with a bang. mol" he
cried, whatever else he is, he's not
such a preposterous ass as that!"
She faced him squarely now. Her
eyes were sparkling. Since you know
him SO intimately and SO highly ap-
prove of him"

of his brown hair, but he did not

slowly ebbed, leaving him pale. HE

At this moment, except for this one

She had taken a hasty step or two
back from him, and her eyes were now
fixed on his with q dawning half-fear-
full question in them.
IT'LL the failure of the Valiant Cor
poration, he had eve heard Of Da-

Rural Credits

Washington. May s14,-President
Wilson will abide by the democratic
cacus in abandoning rural credits
legitation at this session of congress.
Representative Glass of Virginia,
chairman of the banking and cur
ency committee, conferred with the
president to day and explained that
in his opinion the federal reserved
bank act will extend credit aggrega-
ting $500, 100000 on farm lands.
This will, in measure, cover the
ground for which the rural credits
act was designed. Moreover, it is
pointed out, the. rural credits bill
framed by Rep. Bulkey and the
subcommittee was not broad enough
in its provisions to satisfy the full
