that he thought Marie what she rep
) resented herself to be--a relation OF
his. possibly HE daughter-if 1t were
true, as Margaret had said, that Mac
Alltster had thrown his wife and child
aside.
AS he sat with head tipped back
against his easy chair, Mendall con-
structed half a dozen pasts for Marie,
ana as many possible futures. The
conviction that Marie was an i1npostor
ibid not shock him in the least. He
simply had an intense desire to study
her, and at Shorter range.
The movements above him ceased,
finally, and for a time there vas ST.
lenoe-until, from some slight sounds
IN the direction Of the window above,
Mendan judged that Marie was keep
ing vigil just as he was; seated at the
window, probably. and looking out at
the night. Mendall's windows were
widely open ALSO. and putting out all
but the shaded light on the table. he
also looked out at the trees which
were touched by q meager moon. The
elm at the side of the house stretched
a branch that In rough weather

trunk ana the lower branches. Il.
He sat on, constructing more and
more vague pasts and wagner futures,
with the even wagner intention Of 60
ing to bed when he heard Marie move
to do SO until he slipped in
to a fog that was half a dream.
Mendall was aroused by a thud and
a mufled roar. an earthquake shock
that rocked the house into a confu-
sion Of splintering glass and lettering
objects, a wavering motion that ceas-
ed. as it had begun, abruptly. He
had not been shaken out of his chair,
only jolted upright, out OF vasueness
screams. Of footsteps rushing down
the stairs, Of Margaret, in her night
dress and with hair down, cing1ng to
him.
Carl! What is it 2" she gasped.
They stood in less Of wreckage than
Mendall had imagined. The lamp was
~precariously near the edge of the
table, but still burning: small objects
lay scattered IN the floor, and a can

Mendall was cool as soon as he re-

He made for the door.

Mendall had never experienced an

to lay hold on her.

FARMERS, PAY UP

= There Is to be 4 great gathering Of tie clans 1t Fargo
ION October Il to dernonstra ate to the world that farmers
paper ii good. incidentally, the Nonpartisan Leasus and
its subsidiary Institutions owe some hundreds of thou
sands Of do1lArs to the Scandinavian American. bank, and
the farmers whose notes ana checks have been deposited
come and settle up.
The call for the great gathering is issued BY several
men WHO have been prominent in Nonpartisan League pol
itics in the past, and it is endorsed in an editorial in the
Fargo Courier News, which urges the members Of the
league to attend in a Body ana take steps to insure the
payment OF the outstanding notes, checks, and 80 forth.
There has been no denial Of the statement made BY
the officials who closed the league bank that it had made
These loans to institutions which are either without cor.
pofate existence and destitute Of assets. as the Nonparti-
san League, Of which. although incorporated, are prac-
tica1iy without assets Of commercial value. There has
been no, denial Of the statement that, the only security
which the bank had for these large loans was the thou
sands Of notes and checks collected indiserfndinately from
whoever chose to give them. There has been no claim
made that more than a small minority Of the makers Of
these notes, etc, were known to the bank officials VINO
made the looms. There has been no claim made that
these bank officials knew how much Of this paper was colz
lectable, and when. H.,
If the paper in question is GOOD, as liz loudly proclaim
ed by the Socialist newspapers and politicians. there
should be no need for the taking of any extraordinary
measures for its collection. We believe that tie usual
course Of procedure when a bank holds d note is for it
to notify the maker On the approach of the notes nnatu-
rity, and invite him to drop in and settle. And. II the note
is the kind Of paper that It is good business for the bank
to deal IN, the maker does come IN and settle. Commercial
paper on which collection can be made, if at all, only at
the end Of an evangelistic campaign and a mass meeting,
seems, after aE to fall into the doubtful class as security
for d loan. -

painting which had absorbed him. He
waited in secret irlpatience and OUT
ward Indifference for the thing he
wanted: for Marie to become his pu-
pill. He did not venture to question,
but suspense never sat gracefully on
him.
1t got the better Of Him one even
Ing, the night Of the. twelfth Of May;
Marie had Been with them now for
three weeks. He mad come out to the
porch, to his wife, just after Mccall

bent brows.
$50 the sAnorita hA4 gone forth
again in her &panish colors,' he re.
marked sarcastically.
Mendall always addressed Marie as
"senorita," aud always with the
fnintest suggestion OF n1ockery. And
Marie always called him "Senor,"
and with equal indications of antagon-
ism.
II wish you didn't dialike her so
much. Carl" Mrs. Mendall returned.
II don't dislike her." he protested,
with less show Of irritation. "I I'M
derstand her that's all"
IT dent find her iikable, either"
Mrs. M3ndall confessed. II doubt If
any one but Mr.. MacAilister will. He
certainly is fond of her, and she
seems to be OF him. It's natural. Of
course"
'she's making herself solid with
him-that's the. first and most import
ant thing to her." Mendall said dry
You mean she is working him,
'Carl?"
"of course she is"
Perhaps she is" Mrs. Mendall said
'th%oughtfully. Then she smiled at
him. But it's not a, matter that need

have shown any interest in her. Carl"
Mendall vas instantly on his xuard.
It's just that I've u out Of work.
SO I've had time to notice." He bent
and kissed her. II am going>out over

Then he teased her a little, his
hand under her soft obin. You look
tired; you've spent most Of the last
week in town, Madam. Are you in
vestipg in clothes like the 9enorita,
or have you an admirer over there?"
She was not ready to tell him why she
was going every day to Laclasse.
'If he shows his face here, / warn
you I'll shoot hint" Mendall declared
gaily. as he went off.

Specialists testifying at the coroner's S
inquest said there were indications
that she might have died as a result
of blood poisoning brought on thru an
attempt to escape public censure by
an illegal operation.
Prosecutor Adams, accompanied by
deputy sheriffs. searched the Tabor
