ant smile on his lips. making the most
elaborate toilet of his existence He
was to have the honor of dining alone
for the first time with his charming
wife.
Thoroughly complacent, he strolled
back through the car to awaken the
sweetest girl in the world.
''Junew he called and turned to bend
over her seat.
She was not there! He hurried QUIZ
to the vestibule. Nor there! And now
for the first time he saw the three ten
dollar bills on the seat One of them
was slightly torn; all of them were
crumpled.
Frantically he rang the bell; then he
rushed out to meet the white toothed
porter on the way.

The porter's eyes widened until they
made his teeth look gray.
"'Deed ! don't know. boss" he re-
piled. as scared by contagion alone as
if he had been accused Of throwing

The delirious search began from that
instant. In about two minutes the con-
ductor, the brakemen, all the porters
and half the passengers were searching
for June Warner.

and mangled beyond all recognition.
No vision. however. portrayed to him

sharp scrutiny. smiled and strolled
: across the station platform to the bull
letin board. New York local was due
at 4:10. An express was due at 20.
June Warner was helpless and be-
wildered. She had no money. no
friends. She could not even, telegraph.
Why had she done this foolish thing?
Her dream. She saw herself again
standing in the posture of piteous
beggar and accepting Neds gifts. She
saw Ned tipping the white toothed por-
ter a dollar and then, with the same
,jovial generosity, handing her thirty.
The touch of that money still burned
her fingers. Foolish as her revulsion
might be, it was keen and real never
theless. and until she had thrashed
out this question with the woman
which had suddenly grown up in her
she could not make of her marriage
with Ned the sacred relationship which
she had held as her ideal. The black
Vandyked man passed quite near her.

Where should she go? Home? She
could see her father and mother plying
her with question upon question. driv-
ing her to tears with their worried in
sistence and their utter lack of under
standing.
If not home where then? As if from
the setting sun the answer came TO
her-just New York. So big and SO

dwell around the corner for years ana

On Monday forenoon many were
startled by the cry that the barns and
sheds at the home of Roy f. Bingham
were on fire. Despite the efforts OF those
who soon gathered, before noon, the
large barns, two of them adjoining sheds
and hen house, were consumed and only
smoldering mass remained. Hard work
by the neighbors saved the fine dwelling.

Just when, is now and probably will re-
main mystery, as from the opinion of
those first there the fire started over
head in the second part of the ed from
the road. There was little hay in
the barn, and the grain and phosphate
were removed. Horses and cattle were
released and taken to a place of safety.
One hog was slightly burned. The build.
ings were insured. They were built
several years ago by the late A. l..

night. The loss is partially covered by
insurance. The origin of the fire is
unknown, but as the woods and pastures
are extremely dry, and as many fisher
men are on the streams and at the lake,
it is possible that carelessness upon
the part of some visitor at the lake is
responsible.
