THE DREAM CONTINUES

Harry made what he called a
couch" for Louise by spreading out
his sweater and hers, with an extra
coat he brought along, so hat she
could stretch out comfortably in the
sun on the warm surface of n rock.
This sort of thing ought to do you
a lot of good he said, at last.
''Y ou've been so tired with all the
excitement leading up to the wedding
that o haven't been yourself at
all"
Louise nodded laz!ly. The sun as
it warmed her body was making her
feel deliciously relaxed. The months
of social activity were like some few
erish dream from which she had jdst
awakened.
THE only thing is, you should stay
here and rest for several weeks, but
we have to go back day after tomor-
row-that's Sunday"
But we're going back to our
House, Louise reminded him. And
I'm so anxious t begin really living
in it, aren't your"
"Uh, huh" Harry's answer was
muffled as he lay face down on the
rock with his read in his arms. But
/ don't much care where we are so
long as we're together"
Louise's face lighted, as 1t always
did when Harry spoke IN terms or
en~dearment. we could tell father
we wanted to stay on, and he could
send us a check"
Harry sat up, suddenly, his face al
most stern.
Not that" he answered. HE
wouldn't like me for it-and neither
would you, when we come right down
to cases. And I'd certainly hate my
self if l started right off asking
favors from my wife's family"
Louise rose up suddenly and kissed
him. She adored him with his chin
raised at the proud angle at which
he was holding it. She forgot his
words in her admiration of him.
Then she settled back on her COM

Louise gave a little sigh of pure con-
tent and well being, and lay gazing
up at her husbands profile, thinking
IL was strong and dependable-look-
ing: After a time Harry began:

out her hand to him.
Harry kissed the hand, glad that
1t was no longer nervous and cold.
A few minut later he looked down
and found she had fallen fast asleep.
He a there for a long time, some
times looking down at her thin face,

murmured once and after a time he
pulled part of the coat over her
shoulders.

pered.
He was afraid TO disturb her,
knowing how worn u she had been
so he sat by quietly while the sha-
dows ~deepened into twilight and soft
sounds came out of the woods. And

was going to accomplish for the

If the wire is in good condition it
