Afterward Wilton could not imagine
how he had found strength to resist
her. With Molly lost, Jim Belts him

caring nothing for the line, why did
he not let 1t go? In that black hour
the temptation of her presence. the
human love that was his for the TAX

his ears.
II may have been the fiber Of Puritan
ancestors, or simply the Unborn instinct

strength. But he did not know how
he left her till he found himself In the
street.
He went to the bank, the last place,
and the last, hopeless effort, fore

THE FLOWERS OF THE LEGION
American Daisy and French Poppy
Official Posies of Both Branches
Of the Organization.

There has been some confusion In
the minds Of Americans in general
as TO the status Of the daisy and the
poppy in connection with the Ameri-
can Legion and the American Legion
Auxiliary.
The daisy is the Legion's official
flower; the poppy is the Auxiliary's
memorial flower. The misunderstood
ing arose In the first place, because
In it's early days the Legion did adopt
the poppy OF France as Its flower.
But at its Kansas City convention the
American Legion adopted the daisy
as its official flower Oh the grounds
that the daisy is an American flower
and the poppy Of Flanders is avail
able for use only in artificial form.
The Legion Auxiliary has taken ad-
vantage Of the very fact that the poppy
Is not available as real flower to buy
artificial flowers made by disabled sol
diers in hospitals. The Massachu-
sets Legion and Auxiliary netted
something over $4,000 from the sale
of artificial peoples, last winter. This
money was used to better the condi-
lions Of sick and needy veterans OF
the World war.
The Legion is making every effort
20 interest the children of America In
the cultivation of flowers by appeal
ing to their patriotism and to their
natural affection for such flower as
The American Legion's American
daisy.

The AbysmaI Depths.

Molly did not see Bower for two
months after KItty's departure. His
next visit was as unexpected as all OF
his. 1t was In the afternoon. and the
girl came back from walk along the
shore to see him seated In the store,
sleek, red. and self-satished, and her
father standing beside him, with that
look of awful fear on his face. She
had momentary impression as II the
factor stood up like well man; but,
as she entered, the right leg went

preston on his face went to her heart.
She turned swiftly TO Bowyer.

He started up. spluttering. 1--WE don't

vances to Wilton she saw nv Instinct
that she had almost conquered. She
saw. too. that, having lost, she had
lost forever. She might win Wilton
yet, but never in that way.
Now she would go TO any lengths
to GUST Molly. Molly had never writ
ten TO her since her departure. and she
did not even know II her scheme had
succeeded In estranglng her from VIII
ton. But she inferred success from
Wilton's bearing. He had not looked
like a successful lover.
Bitterly she reflected on her mar
riage with Joe. She had never loved
Joe. but neither had she hated him.
She had loved Wilton, and. bound by.
tradition and social circumstances. she
had concealed IL. Then-Joe had died.
Everything had seemed possible. And
Wilton had engaged himself TO an
other--to her best friend. Kitty was
not bad woman. but she meant to
fight for her own. She would win VIII
ton. cost what It might.
When, therefore, late on the day af-
ter he had called on her, the maid an
nounced Tom Bowyer, who had never
been in her house before, she sent
down word that she would receive
him.
Neither Wilton nor Bowyer was
aware that the other was in Clayton
when Bowyer called, nor did they
meet.
Kitty came downstairs. to find
Bowyer standing In the parlor, twirl-
ing his hat In his hands. There was

Now Wilton had succeeded. Big
Muskeg was conquered, and on the east
shore the vanguard of the line was
driving the cleared way forward and
pegging out the way for the metals.
Soon grading would begin. Wilton's
camp would shrink. and the engines
would be moved ahead, and-be would

he dreaded that. He had not seen
Molly or the factor since that night
of the subsistence. He knew that
Bowyer had paid more than one visit
| to the store, but he shrugged his
shoulders and put It out of his mind.
| The wOrkmen, after their months
II arduous labor, had begun to grow
lack. There was restiveness In the
amp. Once or twice Wilton had seen
hgns OF liquor. He detected It In the
flowing up of work he had smelled 1t
In the bunkhouses-the penetrating
odor of cheap alcohol, with its sugges-
ton of gasoline.
Andersen, forestalling him, came to
him about the time of this discovery.
They're getting that rot-gut again,
Mr.. Carruthers," he said. 81 don't
know where. I'm keeping my eyes
peeled, but l amt said nothing"
1.-THE best policy" said Wilton. "The
men have worked hard. When this jobs
finished Wen let them slack up for
day or two. Then wen get down
to business on this proposition. But
If you find out anything let me know
at once"
few days later came the spanning
of the swamp. On the same afternoon
summons came from the court, to-
gether with a letter from Quain. The
police had at last picked up Papillon
and Passepartout. and had recovered
the rifle and transit compass. Wilton
was wanted in Clayton to give evil
dence against the men.
The call was opportune. Wilton had
already determined to put into execu-
ton a plan that he had formed. 1t
was now October, and little more than
two months remained before the loan
would be called. That would give
Bowyer the control of the Missatlbi.
Driven by the ironical realization that
he was working for Bowyer, Wilton
had resolved to go to Clayton as soon
as the trestling was completed, and
try to raise the money to pay Phayre.
who, he knew, would not renew the
note.
Big Muskeg was spanned. And, on
the strength of that, Wilton believed
the time had come to give Joe's secret
to the world. He would publish far
and wide the secret of the wheat
lands. He would establish sufficient
confidence in the line to make the
raising of a loan possibility.
Before leaving he placed night
guard on duty over the office, and ar
ranged with Andersen to have three
or four reliable men on watch In the
event of the laborers attempting to
cross the portage. He went TO Clayton
and laid his statement before a d.
rectors' meeting. They heard him In
frigid silence.
That's an old story" said Curtis.
the vice-president, when he had
finished.
An angry wrangle followed, which
led nowhere. They fatty refused to
spend any money on advertising. All
the while, Phayre, leaning back in his
chair, looked on and took no part in
the proceedings.
