times l think your marriage is as
as queer as my own"
Nothing more was said for several
days upon the subject of a possible
divorce. One afternoon Peter crossed
/ the porch, tired and hot, and found
everything apparently deserted. He
! dropped into a chair, and was still
GREATNESS from the rapid climb up
hin, when stray notes from the piano
reached his ears; chord, a carefully
played bit of bass; then a chord again.
Then slowly, but with dainty accuracy
and even feeling, Cherry began to play
a strange little study of Schumann.
Peter knew It was Cherry, because
AliXs touch was always firm and sure;
more than that, he himself had played
| this same bit no longer ago than last
night, and he remembered now that
Cherry had asked him just what il
was.
He experienced a sudden and pleas
ing emotion; he did not stop to analyze
It, But he had been rufiled in spirit
a moment before; AliX had known he
was to come on this train and had not
met him with the car; and while he
| really did not mind the walk up, he
disliked the feeling that they had en-
tirely forgotten hA,
Presently there was silence; then
Cherry tried another little study and
finished 1t, and the hot summer still
ness reigned again.
With a sense that he had been doz-
ing, if only for a few minutes, Peter
opened his eyes. Framed in the cabin
doorway, poised like butterfly against
the dark background Of the room,
stood Cherry. He knew that she had
been standing SO for some time, for
full minute; perhaps more.
They looked at each other in a 81
lence that grew more and more awk-
ward by great plunges Peter had
time to wish that he had kept his eyes
shut; to wish that he had smiled when
he first saw her-he could not have
forced himself to smile now-tO won.
der how they were ever to speak
where they were rushing-rushing-
rushing-before she turned noiselessly
and vanished into the dim room.
Peter lay there, and his hearl
pounded. moment ago he had beer
tired man. fretted because his wife
forgot to meet him; now there was
something new in the world. And rap.
idly all the world became only back
ground, only a setting, for this extra
ordinary sensation. The hills beyond
still swan in the hot sunlight, the
mountain rose into the blue, but the
light that changes all life lay over
them for Peter.
He said to himself that it was awll-
ward-he did not know how he could
enter that door and talk to Cherry.
And yet he knew that that meeting
Of Cherry, that the common exchange
Of words and glances. that the daily
trifiEg encounters with Cherry We're
all poignantly significant now.
He felt no impulse toward hurry.
He might sit on his porch another
hour, might saunter off toward the
creek. 1t mattered nothing; the hour
was steadily approaching when she
must reappear.
Alix drove in, full Of animated apol-
ogies. She managed the car far bet
ter than he, and no thought of an ac-
cident had troubled him.
The evening was warm, one of the
two or three warm evenings that
marked the height Of summer even
in the high valley. There was not
breath of air in the garden; roses

Of luminous enchantment. Moonlight
sank through the low twisted branches
Of the nearby oaks and fell tangled
with black and lacy shade through
the porch rose vine.
Alix sat on the porch rail, every

vine. Peter, smoking. sat where he

AUTO HITS TEAM

Laurel, April 18.-Unable TO see a
team driven by Lester Briscoe. 1903
Myrtle avenue, yesterday in the heavy
mist, large touring car driven by an
unknown man ran into the team and
seriously injured the driver and killed
one of the mules. The accident oc-
CURED on Main street near Johnson's
hardware store. A crowd quickly
gathered and one of the by-stauders
was heard to remark that a person
should be punished for not protecting
himself against such an accident. He
said that he knew of a preparation
called "SEE THRU" that could be
bought for dollar from a concern in
Baltimore, Maryland, called the Balti-
more See-Thru Corporation that
would have prevented the accident as
no matter how hard it should be rain
ing a wind shield treated with this
preparation would always remain as
clear as on bright summer day and
that every person who drove a car
should not endanger life by going
without 1t. He said that he had driven
over from GOvanstOwn several nights
before and could not understand how
the driver of the jitney could make
such speed on a rainy night until he
told him he always used SEE
THRU. After the driver explained
to him how simple it was to have a
clear windshield and guaranteed to
be so as long as it Tained he said he
did not lose aHy time sending off his
dollar for box and that he found
that it certainly did the trick. Adyer-

CANADIAN IROQUOIS
INDIANS PEACEFUL
WITH GOVERNMENT

TORONTO, Dec 21.-The Iriquois
Indians have made peace with the
Dominion government. Threats of mi
grafton TO the reservations of the
United States. because the Dominion
would not recognize the red men as
an independent nation, have been for
gotten The hatchet was buried and
the peace pipe smoked at Chsweken
carly in December.
Chief Deskaheh, leader of the fac
ton fighting for independence, carried
the issue to the council house of the
nation, but accepted defeat stoically
when the other chiefs at the pow-wow
outvoted him. He and his followers
had maintained that their grievances
were properly matters for an inter
national court of law, their indepen-
dence having been recognized by a
British sovereign.
Leaders of the Loyalists, the win
ming faction at Chsweken, were chief
ly from the Christian tribes of the
Mohawks and Delawares. They were
well satisfied with the outcome at the
pow-wow, but now propose to go even
further Their tribes have virtually
no presentation on the hereditary
council, members of which are elected
for life by the women Of the tribes
The Loyalists, it is announced, will
work for an elective council, ito con
form with the democratic trend of the
times and to do away with remnant
of feudaliSm."
