CHAPTER VI.

Mrs. yertrees "sat up" for her daugh-
ter, Mr.. Vertrees having retired after q
restless evening, not much soothed by
the society Of his Landseers. But Mrs.
yertrees had long vigil Of 1t.
She sat through the slow night hours
in stiff little chair under the gaslight
In her own room, which was directly
over the front hall" There, book in
hand, she employed the time in her
own "reminiscences, though It was her
belief that she was reading Madame de
Remusat's.
Her thoughts went backward into
her life and into her husbands; and
the deeper into the past they went. the
brighter the pictures they brought her
and there is tragedy. Like her hus-
band. she thought backward because
she did not dare think forward definite
ly. What thinking forward this trou-
bled couple ventured took the form of
n slender hope which neither of them
could have borne to hear put in words.
and yet they had talked 1t over, day
after day, from the very hour when
they heard Sheridan was to build his

become an antique-thelr youth was of
the innocent old days, so dead! of
breeding" and "gentility," and no
craft had been more straitly trained
upon them than that of talking about
things without mentioning them. Here
in was marked the most vital differ
ence between Mr.. and Mrs. VertreeS
and their big new neighbor. Sheridan,
though his youth was Of the same
epoch, knew nothing of such matters.
He had been chopping wood for the
morning fire in the country grocery
while they were still dancing.
1t was after one O'Clock when Mrs.
Vertrees heard steps and the delicate
clinking of the key in the lock. and
then, with the opening Of the door.
Mary's laugh and, "Yes-if you aren't
afraid-tomorrow .
The door closed, and she rushed up
stairs, bringing with her breath Of
cold and bracing air into her mothers
room. YES" she said. before Mrs.
Vertrees could speak, "he brought me
homev
She let her cloak fall upon the bed,
and, drawing an old red-velvet rocking
chair forward, sat beside her mother,
after giving her a light pat upon the
shoulder and a hearty kiss upon the
cheek.
"Mammaw Mary exclaimed, when
Mrs. Vertrees had expressed a hope
that she had enjoyed the evening and
had not caught cold. why don't you
ask meT'
This inquiry obviously made her
mother uncomfortable. II don't" she
faltered. ASK you what, Mary2"
How got along and what he's
like"
"Maryw
"Oh, 1t isn't distressingw said Mary.
And got along so fast" She broke
of to laugh; continuing then. But
that's the way went at 1t, Of course.

With the bringing TO a close OF the
three weeks anti tuberculosis cam
paign in st. Clair county, six Of the
eighty-three counties OF the state have
been covered by the state health work
ers, After a brief rest, the corps of
state workers will begin the new year
with a campaign in Calhoun county to
be followed in rapid succession by
other counties I'm the south central
section OF the state IL is planned not
to begin work In the upper peninsula
until next summer But before the
end OF 1916 II is expected that very
large majority OF the counties of the
state will have been visited, leaving a
few scattered counties here and there
to be completed during the first half
OF 1917.
The work done during the last
three months OF 1916 has shown very
gratifying results in spite of the fact
that the campaign was largely expert
mental during that time. IL is felt
now however that the work has be-
come standardized to large extent
and has passed out of the zone OF ex-
