CHAPTER VIII.

Martins work was N the Contra
Costa valley, and he and Cherry had
a small house in Red Greek, the only
town of any size near the mine. Red
Creek was in a fruit-farming and
dairy region and looked its prettiesF
on the spring evening when Cherry
saw il first.
Her little house was a cottage with
a porch running across the front,
where windows looked out from the
sitting room and the front bedroom.
Back of these rooms were dark lit
tie bathroom that connected the front
bedroom with another smaller bed
room, a little dining room and
kitchen. Martin, man-fashion, had
merely camped in kitchen and bedroom
while awaiting his wife: but Cherry
buttOned on her crisp little apron on
the first morning after her arrival, and
attacked the accumulated dishes in
the sink and the scattered shirts and
collars bravely.
For a few weeks the novelty lasted
and Cherry was enthusiastic about
everything. She looked out across her
dishpan at green fields and the begin
ming of the farms; she saw the lilacs
burst into fragrant plumes on the
bare branches of her dooryard tree
spring flushed the whole world with
loneliness, and she was young, and
healthy, and too busy to be home
sick.
The days went on and on, each
bringing its round of dishes, beds
sweeping, marketing, folding and un
! folding tablecloths, going back and
/ forth between kitchen and dining
| room. Martins breakfast was either
| promptly served and well cooked. IL
! which case Martin was silently salts
/ fed, or 1t was late and a failure, wher
| he was very articulately disguised; IL
| either case Cherry was left to cleal
| and wash and plan for another mea
| in four hours more. She soaked fruit
beat up cake, chopped boxes int
kindIingS, heated a kettle of waite
and another kettle of water, dragged
sheets from the bed only to replac'
them, filled dishes with food only Il
find them empty and ready to wasl
again.
