Geraniums should be kept moist, but
should not be given too much water

plenty Of air, for they won't thrive in

CHAPTER XVIII.

Saturday came, perfect day that
flied the little valley to the brim with
golden sunshine. AIlx, driving alone
TO the mountain cabin, stared in the
morning freshness at the bltR over
head and said aloud, "oh, what day
of gold I"
The dog, sitting beside her on the
front seat. Tapped his tail In answer
to her voice. and she laughed at him.
But the laugh was quickly followed
by sharp sigh,

Of bitter and rebellious weeping.
"Oh, my God, what shall dor she
sobbed, with her bright head dropped
ON her arm.
"Don't cry, Cherry, CherryI' Allx
said, her own tears brlmmlng over.
She came 10 kneel beside her sister,
and they locked their arms about each
other, and their wet cheeks touched.
Don't cry, dearl' she said. tenderly.
"ItIl all come straight, somehow. and
we'll wonder why we took It so hard |!
Now listen to me, Sis" as soon as
Cherry had somewhat regalned her
colnposure. "We'l ascertain about
this letter; that's only fair. II Martin
denies It,"
"Of course he'll deny itw Cherry
interrupted. from the bitter knowledge
she had OF him.
Allx again felt daunted for a second
by the sheer uglness and sordidness
Of the matter, but she returned to the
charge bravely.
Suppose we get Peter to ask him"
she suggested suddenly. "Peter has a
wonderful way OF getting the truth
out OF people!" Poor Cherry, the very
mention Of his name makes her
vince. Allx thought, watching her
sister sorrowfuliy, ''If Martin can
convince Peter that It is not true,
then TINT makes oil the difference in
the world" she added, aloud. "Then
you tell Martin frankly that you have
the old house ready to live In, and YOU
want to live there. He"

everything was right there.

was pale, had come ont to the ear,
her distracted manner increasing Alix's
sense that something was rrnvely
amlss. She started on her trip with
q heavy heart, but the hslfheur's run
soothed her in spite OF herself, and
now she reached the cabin In a much
more cheerful mood
Peter was nowhere about, and as
she plunged into the work Of house
and farmyard she supposed, without
giving the matter conscious thought
that he had gone TO the city.

that she and her sister had had at
breakfast.
"Then shouldn't bring up the ques-
ton at ALL" Peter decided, quickly.
1T would only mean an ugly and un.
necessary scene. It's much wiser TO
let him continue to think that you
don't know anything about H. and to
lei Alix think that you are ignoring

Until Sunday!" she whispered.

Martin and Alix. who were talking to-
gesfrr abSorhedly, in low tones. MY
little sweetheart. I'll make all this
misery up TO you!" he whispered. Her
little hand was locked In his for the
rest of the evening.
Morning came, crystal autumn
morning, and life went on. II there
was any change at the cabin 1t was a
change for the better. Allx, who had
been silent and troubled for little
White, was more serene now, as usual

concerned for the comfort Of her
household, and as usual busy all day
long with her poultry and pigeons, her
bookkeeping, stable, and dogs. Peter
was his courteous, gentle, interested
self, more like the old Peter who had
always been occupied with his music
and his books, than like the passion
ately metamorphosed Peter who had
been So chnnged by love for Cherry.
Martin satisfied with the general re-
spects and consideration with which
he found himself surrounded, accept
cd life placidly enough; perhaps he
had been disturbed by the advent Of
the letter, perhaps he was willing to
let The question Of an adjustment be-

amused him to help get the house
ready for tenant, and from the fact
that Cherry talked no more of living
silere, and made no comment upon his
frequent reference 10 their departure
on Monday, he deduced that she had
come to her senses.
Cherry, too, was less unhappy than
she had been. BY avoiding Peter, by
reirainlng even In words and looks
from the companionshlp for which she
so hungered, by devoting herself to
Alix. she managed to hold her feelings
in leash, Even though Alix found
