The travelling man who had struck
the slowest town In the country on
Memorial day, and had not made a
sale of anything, was writing back
home. Gle had to pass the time away
somehow, and there were no other
travelling men near the place.)
This Is the conclusion of his eulogy
to the town:
This is the rottenest town l have
ever struck, and I have met some
mighty rotten ones. Today is Memorial
day. They are making big noise In
this town. They all go out to decorate
the graves Of the dead in the west half
OF the burgh, but in reality the ones
they should have decorated were the
homes Of the living dead ones on the
east side. Those people out there In
tn cemetery are the livest products
this place has ever produced. Some

She couldn't see how It was, that
was plain enough. What he very rea-

her wet face up to his, with her old

what happened at all. Instead, she

was there. "Have a look at the funny

CHAPTER TX.
The Damascus Road.

1t argued no real lack of sisterly
affection that Rose didn't want to see
Portia that morning. Even IL there
had been no other reason, being found
in bed at half-past ten In the morning
by sister who inflexibly opened her
little shop at half-past eight, regard
less Of bad weather, backaches, and
other potentially valid excuses, was
enough to make one feel apologize
and worthless. Rose could truthfully
say that she was feeling wretched.
But Portia would sit there, slim and
erect, In a little STRAIGHTFORWARD chair,
and whatever perfunctory commisera-
ton she might manage to express, the
! look OF her fine eyebrows would be
skeptical.
But Roses shrinking from a talk
with Portia that morning was a mild
feeling compared with Portals dread
OF the impending talk with Rose.
Twice she had walked by the per-
feet doorway of the McCrea house be-
fore she entered 1t, because she
shrank from the ordeal that awaited
her In there.
They had been seeing each other
with reasonable frequency all winter.
The Aldriches had Portla and her
mother In to q family dinner pretty
often, and always came out to Edge
water for a one-o'clock dinner with
the Stantons on Sunday.
Mrs. Stanton had taken a great lik-
Ing to Rodney. His manner toward
her had just the blend Of Difference
and breezy unconventionality that
pleased her. He showed an unending
iaterest I'm the Woman Movement
never tired of drawing from his
mother-in-law the story of her labors
and the exposition Of her beliefs. Some
times he argued with her playfully in
order to get her started. More often,
and so far as Portia could see, quite
seriously, he professed himself In full
accord with her views.
The reason why these family parties
were at an end was what Portia came
to tell Rose this morning. She hoped
she'd be able to tell 1t gently.
Rose greeted her with q "Hello,
angel! Why didn't you come right |

The silence had lasted a good while
before Rose noticed that Portia had
not stirred; had sat there as rigtdly
still as figure carved In ivory.
Becoming aware of that, she raised
her head. Portia wasn't looking at
her, but down at her own clenched
hands.
