CHAPTER XVIII.

Saturday came, perfect day that
filed the little valley TO the brim with
golden sunshine. Alix, driving alone
10 the mountain cabin, stared in the
morning freshness at the blue over
head and said aloud, "Oh, what a day
OF gold ["

front seat. tapped his tail in answer

But the laugh was quickly followed

Monday Expects her to 90 back with
him TO life of misery for her, exist

ry-my little sister there can he no
happiness for you there And Peter I!
Peter is left behind To me- who can
not comfort him or still the ache that
is tearing his heart My two loved
ones. and what can do TO help them!"
She had come up to the cabin TO do
the usual last little daily fussing
among the ducks and chickens and to
bring Peter, If Peter had not gone into
town, back with her to Cherry's house
They had all dined i'm the old Strick-
land house the night before, and be-
cause of sudden rainfall had decided
to SIP md the night there, too. The
Chine ,e boy who had been helping the
sisterc with their housekeeping had
been persuaded to cook the dinner and
get breakfast, and the evening about
the old fireplace had been almost too
poignantly sweet.
But suddenly. at about ten o'clock
Peter had surprised them all by get.
ting TO his feet. He was going up to
the cabin, he said-must go. in fact
He would rather walk. please. he TOLD
Alix when she offered to drive him
up IN the car. Bewldered and a little
apprrhensive, she let him go. To Cher
ry, who seemed to feel suddenly sad
and uneasy, Alix laughed about IL. but
she was secretly worried herself and
Immediately after breakfast the next
Tornlug decided To run up TO the cabin
In the car and assure herself that
everything was right there.
Cherry, who had not slept and who
was pale, had come out to the car,
her distracted manner increasing Alix's
sense that something was gravely
amiss. She started on her trip with
n heavy heart. but the half-hour'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
size plunged into the work Of house
ana fsrmyard she supposed. without
giving the matter conscious thought
that he had gone TO the city.
"Mis' Peter not go train," Kow an

MAN TO BE CONGRATULATED
Poor Bookkeeper Was Doing His Re-
JoIcing Over the Arrival Of
Twins by Proxy.

Performers can talk about the evils
Of race suicide as they VIII, nobody
In these days OF high prices considers
a large family a blessing"
DR.. Hahnemann Morflt. the Chicago
eugenist, was addressing the Birth
Control league.
"Even the reformers," he went
on, "seem to advocate large families
for other people rather than for
themselves. They are like Bunker.
"'Bunker, you look blooming said
his boss. What are you rejoicing
over this fine morningr
"T am rejoicing, sir said Bunker,
the poor bookkeeper, over the birth
Of twins
"'Humph. Congratulations said
the boss obviously.
"'Oh' said Bunker. don't congrat-
ulate me, sir. Congratulate George
Evans, my worst enemy. He's the
lucky man.'"-Detrolt Free Press.

"By George, but this Is fine day 7"
exclaimed one man as he met another
on the street.
'Yes, so II is" was agreed. "You
are looking very happy this morning"
Happy haven't been so happy In

"What has occasioned your happl-
ness?" was asked.
"When my mail came In an hour ago
II brought to me a coal bill, bin from
the grocer, a letter from my landlord
raising my rent, and Doctors bill two
years old. Also a notice that my taxes
had not been paid and a gas and cleo

at was enough TO fairly crush one
and can't see how you can be happy"
"Why, II Is very simple thing. All
I had to do was to put the bills in the
fire, and forget all about their arrival.

dence in that nOur, none in the dis.
tressed hour at the Orpheum, and the
hour Just past. when Cherry's rarely
displayed passion mad wrenched from
him his last vestige of doubt.
But this was the eliminating Nnhars

Listen. that's Buck !" said Cherry,
as the dogs loud and violent barking
reached them from beyond a turn In
the twisting road. 'Ho didn't catch
them, then"
The next instant a woman came up
he road, running and making a queer
Nhimpering noise that Cherry never
forgot. She was a stranger to item
but she ran toward them, making the
odd. gasping noise with much dry
mounting, and with wild eyes.
Horror was in her aspect, and nor
ror was the emotion that the hrsi
glimpse Of her awakened vaguely in
their hearts, but as she saw them she
suddenly found voice for so hideous a
scream that Cherry's knees failed her
and Peter sprang forward with shout
He gripped the woman's arm, end
her frantic eyes were turned TO him
"Oh, my God :" she cried in a hoArse,
cawing voice. MY God! They're over

They were all running now, running
with desperate speed down the long
road. about the curves, ON and on to
ward the frantic noise OF the dogs
barking, and toward enother noise
the sound of human voice twisted
and wild with agony.
The strange woman was crying out
wildly; Cherry was sobbing prayer
Peter without knowing That he spoke
at all, was repeating over and over
again the words: mot Alix-my God

"And now that we are alone tOgeth-

And again, like the ominOus fall of .

in his heart: "Alix knows. AIiV

He thought of the afternoon, only .
few weeks ago, when Cherry's beauty
had made so sudden and so irresiSt

mo; AlIx is going to speak to him
about IT," Cherry outlined the talk
that she and her sister had had at
breakfast.
''Tben shouldn't bring up the ques-
tion at ALL" Peter decided quickly.
~It would only mean an ugly and I'M
necessary scene. It's much wiser TO
let him continue TO think that you
don't know anything about It, and to
let Alix think that you are ignoring
the whole thing"
Until Sunday" she whispered.
Until Sunday" Peter glanced at
Martin and Alix, who were talking to-
getIlrr absorbedly, 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. If there
was any change at the cabin it was a
change for the better. AliX, who had
been silent and troubled for a little
while, 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 changed by love for Cherry
Martin, satisfied with the general re-
spects and consideration with which
he found himself surrounded, accept
ed life pIacidly enough; perhaps he
had been disturbed by the advent of
the letter, perhaps he was willing to
let the question of an adjustment be-
tween Cherry and himself rest. II
amused him to help get the house
ready for tenant, and from the fact
that Cherry talked no more of living
there and made no comment upon his
frequent reference TO 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
refraining even in words and looks
from the companionship for which she
so hungered, by devoting herself TO
Alix, she managed to hold her feelings
in leash. Even though Alix found
that the knowledge of the secret they
shared without ever mentioning stood
between them like screen, the sis
ters, busy about the house, had won
derful hours together

and after a while Alix, with an icy
heart, went to the bridge and the pool

He was standing, staring vaguely at
the low and lisping stream, and Alix
felt great pang of pity when she
saw him. He came 10 her smiling.

answered. They walked back to the
house together. Alix ordered him to
take hot bath, and made him drink
some coffee, when, refreshed and
grateful, he came out to the porch
half an hour later. They shared the
little meal that was her luncheon and
his breakfast.
He followed her TO the car and got

said, briefly. when they were going
down the long grade.

he thought he saw her lip tremble.
