What Happened to Jane


By Virginia Terhune Van de Water

had never loved her father as she
loved her mother-but she had been
fond of him. and had always respected
him. Had she never known him until
now?
She brought her thoughts and at
tention back to what Augustus Reeves
was saying. 1t was, at first, just what
he had told her often before. He
stood high in the community. he in
formed her: he had a fine farm,
good income. and was making money
from several excellent investments.
But he was lonely.
Her heart gave a sickening throb.
If she only dared to run away-dared
to scream-dared tell him to stop
Its many years now since my wife
died." he remarked. And I feel very
much the need of a wife. You would
suit me in many ways. Jane. Will you
marry me?"
He leaned toward her and took her
hand in his. She matched it away.
His touch made her shudder.
'I-I--can't!" she gasped. II don't
love you!''
He smiled as he might have smiled
at an ignorant child.
ct don't expect that you do love me
yet. Jane" he rejcined. But you will
soon. 1 don't think that I would care
specially for any young woman who
she was quite sure that he wanted her.
do want you, and believe you'll suit
me very we'll. You have faults, of
course-but who hasn't? And I'm
sure that when you see how we'll can
provide for you, when you change
| from this house to my big one. when
you see how nice everything is there
you'll be glad you took the step-glad
and thankful. I know you've got quite
a lot to learn. but Mary-that is Mrs.
Baird. my housekeeper-win teach
you"
The world swan around his listener.
He talked as If he had settled every
thing in spite of her. Could 1t be that
he had dared speak in this way of her
to her father? Was she not to be con-
sidered in this matter-was her life to
be arranged for her, and was she to
be disposed of. or purchased. as IL she
were a horse or some other dumb
creature that this man had decided to
own?
She thought of Edward Sanderson.
He was her refuge-yet her tongue re-
fused to speak of him to this man.
She could not name her love-the
most beautiful thing in her life-in
this gross presence. But she must say
Notwithstanding 10 let him
know that she could not listen to any
thing else he had to say-that she
could never, never marry him.
"You-you-don't understand" she
Stammered. "1-I-could not marry
anyone I did not love. And-besides
-I-I-have-Oh, it's impossible, Mr..
Reeves-quite impossible
She sprang to her feet as he tried
again to seize her hand, and. eluding
him without a backward glance went
swiftly into the house and UP to her
room.

Mrs. Hardy looked up anxiously as
Jane came out upon the veranda.
II was wondering where you were"
she said. II was afraid you might be
feeling sick. Mr.. Reeves was lust ask
Ing what had become of YOU"
The girl tried to smile.
'1-I-wss talking to father when
you called me" she explained.
Sinking into a chair, she sat dumbly
miserable. Had her father really
spoken those words that still rang in
her ears? She felt as if she must
have been dreaming as she watched
Ezra return to the group he had left
so short while ago. and. sitting down
by Augustus Reeves, begin to talk
about the borers in his fruit trees.
For some time nobody spoke di-
rectly to her. and she listened to the
conversation as one half-aSleep might
listen to talk in another room. The
moon was rising slowly and calmly
above the treetops and she watched il
flXedly. Was it possible that this awful
thing had been said TO her since Ned
and she had watched that moon-"our
old moon," as he had called it? He
had said that il was smiling on him
and her. II was not smiling now. hut
gazing unperturbably on all the joy
and suffering in the world.
She clasped her hands together
tightly as she heard train whistle UP
the valley. That was Ned's train. She
listened as it slowed up at the station,
and stood, painting, while the passen-
gers boarded ii. Then it began to puff,
slowly at first, then more rapidly, until
the sound became once more a con-
tinuous roar. Another warning whistle
from the locomotive as it approached
a crossing a mile down the road-then
only a confused murmur in the dis
tance. and all was still as before.
Her Father Makes an Excuse to Go
Ezra Hardy rose stiffly. Ma" he
said, there's little bit of mending
I'd like you to do for me tonight.
Suppose we leave Jane to talk to Gus
for a while and you attend to that for
me. Well be out in about half
hour" he informed his guest.
That's all right-talle your own
time Augustus said. Jane and I'll
get along all right by ourselves,
guess"
Mr.. Hardy said nothing. and in the
moonlight the girl fancied that her
mothers face grew a shade paler

When they had gone indoors she sat
down again.
She remained silent as Augustus
Reeves began his speech, first getting
up and closing the door that led out

She had an impulse TO resent his
words, to tell him that her people
could not sink to the ignomiEy Of

what her father had said to her only
little while ago she felt that she did
not know what he might stoop to. She
