py," cried Irma with the tears stream
ing.
Mrs. Sheldon waited till she was
weary before Irma came home; one
look at the happy face, and the peace
full look on her loved physicians face
told part of the story at least.
A long, long time was spent that
evening in making plans for the fu-
ture. Sheilah was to be moved I'M
mediately to her mothers home, and
tidings of the truant husband await
ed.
Irma and DR.. Fitzgerald to be mar

that DR.. Fitzgerald might become ac-
guainted with her bonny southland.
"My mother!' how refreshingly the
words fell on the ears of Door Mrs
Fitzgerald, while Sheilah, safe in her
mothers and brothers care, felt so
safe from life's storms.
eIrma and DR.. Fitzgerald were quiet
ly married and were to leave for the
south as soon as his sister was well,
when one day he came home with a
look on his face his wife and sister
had never seen before. He handed
them Texas paper, containing the
news of the death of the man who had
robbed him of father, half crazed
his mother, and caused untold misery
to his sister.
No word was spoken, and the bowed
head of Sheilah was the only emotion
shown. When DR.. Fitzgerald and 1r-
ma reached Essex, the first thing done
before their long delightful drive to
their country home was to 60 to see
Mrs. Winston and see if any new:
could be found concerning Charles.
Charles was at home and in much
trouble. Soon after reaching home he
had been very i'll and as he recovered
confessed his marriage to his mother
He had written to her and when ne
letter came, the poor boy, still weal
from fever, had lost all hope and hi:
delight was unbounded when his ole
play mate returned, and news Of hi:
wife was received.
| As soon as Charles was able tt
travel he went for his wife, and sh'
refusing to desert he long lost moth

her southern home, where in few
years health came back to her.
So in the sunny southland we vii
leave them, happy in their united love
with no malice in their hearts TO

II was treated by the stranger with
all the respect possible, and my lonely
wretched life seemed to make an i'm
preston on him; he seemed grateful
for the risk had run in warning him
Of his danger, and swore to protect
mother and myself from all further
brutality.
Mother gradually grew weaker
and began to realize I would soon be
alone in the world, and the thought
was not pleasant. As the days passed

were rather noisy. Soon they went
up on the roof to help with the rafters

well few minutes and suddenly they
came scrambling down for another
pull at the jug. They were out for

resentment. Some were wIgging their
leader, Jack Armstrong, to fight Abe.

It began passing from mouth to mouth.
Jack Armstrong got the bottle before

around the waist and there was a des-

let go. This was not enough for the
sturdy bully Of Clary's Grove. He
seized his follower and flung him so
roughly on the ground that the latter

The Irish parleys may or may not
have accomplished something, since
Valera has gone home, and Sir Jas.
Craig left the conference Tuesday
morning with the statement that De
Valera was unreasonable In MS oe-
mands.
1t is uncertain whether De Valera
returned for the purpose of submit
ting the ten proposals presented by
Lloyd George as basis for peace to
his colleagues, or that it really means
all negotiations are of.
In any event the two Irish govern
ments, Ulster and the Nationals seem
to be as hard to reconcile, as it is for
England to make terms with South
Ireland.
