eyes we're clear and friendly.
Ward was not satisfied, for all the
surface seemed smooth enough. He
was too sensitive not to feel differ

wrongdoing or thinking to guess what
was the matter. Guilt is a good barom-
eter Of personal atmosphere, and Ward
had none Of it, The worst of him she
had known for more than year. He
had told her himself, and she had heal
ed the hurt-aImost-o the past by her
firm belief in him and by her friend
ship. Could you expect Ward to guess
that she had seen Der faith in him die
violent death no longer than two
weeks ago2 Such a possibility never
occurred to him.
For all that he felt there was a diff

it the breath Of life SO that II stood
sturdily before her she took heart ana
created reasons. a whole company of
them, TO tell her why she ought to give
Ward the benefit of the doubt. she
remembered what Charlie Fox had said
about circumstantial evidence. She
would not make the mistake he had
made.
SO she spent other days and long,
wakeful nights. And since it seemed
impossible to bring her faith to life
again just as it had been, with the
glainor of romance and the sweetness
Of pity and the strength of her own in
noeence to make it a beautiful faith
indeed, she used all her innocence and
all her pity and little of romance and
created something even sweeter than
her untried faith had been. She had a
new element to strengthen it. She
knew that she loved Ward. She had
learned that from the hurt it had given
her to lose her faith in him.
That was the record OF the inner
Billy Louise which no one ever saw.
The Billy Louise which her little world
knew went her way unchanged except
in small details that escaped the mo-
tice Of those nearest her. A look In
her eyes for one thing; a hurt. ques-
tioning look that was sometimes re-
bellious as well. droop Of her mouth
also when she was of her guard; sad,
tired little droop that told OF the weight
Of responsibility and worry she was
carrying.
Ward observed both the minute he
saw her on the trail He had come
across country on the chance that she
might be riding out that way, and he
had come upon her unawares while
she and Blue were staring out over the
desert from the height they had attain
ed In the hills.
10, Billr' he said when he was
quite close and held himself ready to
meet whatever mood she might pre-
sent.
She turned her head quickly and
looked at him, and the hurt look was
still in her eyes; the droop still show
ed at her lips. And Ward knew they
had been there before she saw him.

tone that was calculated to invite an
unburdening of her troubles.

CINCE nothing in this world is abso-
lutely immutable = the human
- emotions least Of all perhaps
RIlly Louise did not hold changeless
her broken faith in Ward. She saw it
broken into fragments before the evil
cIence of her own eyes and the frag-
ments ground to dust beneath the
weight of what she knew Of his past
things he had told her himself. So she
Thought there was no more faith in
him. and her heart went empty and
aching through the next few days.
But. since Billy Louise was human
and a woman-not altogether because
She was twenty-she stopped after
: while. gathered carefully the dust Of
her dead faith, and, like God, she be-
can TO create. First she fashioned
doubts Of her doubt. How did she
know she had not made a mistake,
there at that corral2 Other men wore
cray hats and rode dark bay horses;
other men were slim and tail, and she
had only had a glimpse, after all, and
the light was deceptive down there IN
the shadows. When that first doubt
was nodded and she had 0reathed into

Sne reaL. She slid the little heap OF
odds and ends to the middle OF tae bed,
crushed the clipping into her palm and
went out stealthily into the immaculate
kitchen. As if she were being spied
upon she went cautiously to the stove,
lifted lid and dropped the clipping in
where the wood blazed the brightest.
She watched it fare and become moth

clipping was not very large. When 1t
was gone she put the lid back anG
went tiptoeing to the door. Then she
ran.
Phoebe was down by the creek, so
Billy Louise went to the stable,
through that and on beyond, still run
ming. Farther down was a grassy
nook-on beyond the road. She went
there and hid behind the willows,
where she could cry and no one be the
wiser. But she could rot cry the ache
out of her heart nor the rebellion
against the hurt that life had given
her. If she could only have burned
memory when she burned that clip
pingl She could still believe and be
happy If only she could forget the
things it said.
Phoebe called her after a long while
had passed Billy Louise bathed her
face In the cold water of the Wolverine,
used her handkerchief for towel and
went back to take up the duties life
had laid upon her The doctors team
was hitched to the light buggy he
drove, and the doctor was standing in
the doorway with his square medicine
case in his hand waiting to give her a
few final directions before he left.
He was like so many doctors-he
seemed to be afraid to tell the whole
truth about his patient. He stuck to
eyasive optimism and then neutralized
the reassurances he uttered by empha-
sizing the necessity of being notified If
Mrs. Macdonald showed any symp-
toms of another attack.
Billy Louise ran into her own room,
grabbed can of talcum and did not
wait to see whether she applied it even
II to her telltale eyelids, but dabbed
at them on the way to her mothers
room.
Doctor says you're all right, NOM
mic; only you mustn't go digging post
holes or shoyeling hay for awhile
mo, 1 guess notI'' Her mother re-
sponded unconsciously to the stimula-
ton Of Billy Louise's tone. Il couldn't
dig holes with a teaspoon, I'm that
weak and useless. Did he say what it
was, Billy Louise?" The sick are al
ways so curious about their illnesses.
ooh, your lumbago got to scrapping
with your liver. l forgot the name he
gave it, but it's nothing to worry
about" Billy Louise had imagination,
remember.
II guess he'd think it was something
to worry about If he had it, her moth

Louise. II believe could eat little
mite of toast and drink some tea" she
added tentatively.
s.And an egg poached soft If you want
it, nom. Phoebe just brought in the

unconcernedly under her breath as il
she had not care beyond the proper
toasting Of the bread and brewing of
the tea.
