 The same old answer. the same old excuse with which she had so often been put off before,
 She. got back to her room at night tired and dispiritcd. The day had seemed endless. Her feet achcd with tramping the parcmonts. Sure Iy it was only in dream that she had ever walked the velvcty lawns of the Red Grange and driven with David,
 She had kopt her thoughts rcso- lutcly from him so far, but now. alone and wcaricd, the memory of him came surging back to her.
 How he must hate her now if he knew everything. And. Of course. he did know--Monty Fisher would have told him. How he must hate her.
 She spread her arms on the little round table and laid her head on them.
 The Red Grange, II sounded to her very much as the name Fairy land must to a child-as something which one only hears and never dares hope 10 see.

hemmed her in. The horrible feel ing of being in prison vanished. X batch of soldiers swung past fef in the road singing cheerily. Their boots were thick with dust. They looked tired, but their spirits were high. She thought of Nigel. Once he had been one of them-he who was now sleeping almost forgotten somewhere in France.
 Surely she must have loved him in another lifetime. Surely with his death she had closed one book Of her life and begun another.
 As she turned corner a young man coming quickly in the opposite direction ran against her. He apollo gized, raising his hat. They were close to a street lamp. and by its subdued light each saw the others face.
 Mary caught her breath.
 ''You?" she said.
 Young Evans colored 10 the roots of his hair. For moment he could only stare at her. Then he put out his hand
 'I was beginning to think We should never meet again.
 He had been thinking of Mary moment since: he had been thinking of her ever since the morning, when he had been called into Monty Fishers office and been questioned about her. And now here she was; now they were face to face again. He hold her hand in a glad clasp. His heart was humping wildly. He broke out again, stammering a little.

And, after all, what had she done Deceived him-ycs But he was in no way the loser for it, unless one counted the few happy drives she had taken with him, the few nights she had spent under his roof, the few meals she had at his table.
 If she had been the adventures they would all think her. she would not have been satisfied with that. She would have wanted money and clothes, and perhaps jewels.
 The tears rushed to her eyes as she thought of Miss Narney The old lady had been so good to her. had been genuinely fond of her. she was sure. Would she, too, now hate her, as David assuredly would?
 She tried to drink the tea the land lady brought for her, but the thick slices of bread and butter and the cheap tin tray with no dainty linen cloth to hide its ugliness, brought a lump to her throat. It was absurd, so she tried 10 argue.
 She rose resolutcly from the table. She felt that she would 20 mad if she stayed any longer in this room with it's stuffiness and uglinoss.
 She took her hat, and went out.

 Mary did not know what to say She had liked him during their brief acquaintance; he had been kind to her. But there was. something now in the expression of his eyes, the tone of his voice, that bewildcred her. She drew her hand away nervously.
 "The world is such small place, isn't it" It's wonderful how people do knock up against each other.''

c OF c CALLS FOR CO-ORDiNA
TioN or RAIL AND WATER
LINES.

Washington.--A proposed national
policy Of transportation development,
looking to the coordination of rail,
water and highway transport was sub
mitted to the 1000 organization men,
bers Of the Chamber of Commerce of
the United States.
The policy is formulated in a ser
les of II recommendation made by
this special committee on transporta-
ton of the national chamber, OF
which Harry A. Whorter, Of Chicago
is chairman They are based upon
conclusion Of the national transpor-
tation conference held in Washington
last January, under the auspices OF
the national chamber.
Among the questions submitted to
the judgment of the business interests
of the country are the retention OF
the transportation act without sub
stanial change, railroad consolidation,
the relative readjustment of freight
rates, national survey OF inland
waterways and the establishment OF
store door delivery by rail and motor
carriers.

A TAX ON GASOLINE is
URGED ON LEGISLATURE
State Supervisors Favor Two-Cent
Levy for Better Highways In
Iowa.

Des Moines, Ia.--A proposal that
the legislature enact at the extra
session a law levying a 2-cent tax on
each gallon OF gasoline sold In the
state for motor vehicle purposes was
placed before the legislature in the
form of a resolution adopted by the
convention of the state county sup
ervisors' association.
The supervisors declare the people
all over the state are demanding a
better road system and that the pro-
per and equitable way OF financing
read building is by a gasoline tax.
The resolution asks that one-half OF
the money thus raised be apportioned
to the primary road system and one
half to the county road systems.
Distribution on the same basis now
employed in dividing automobile tax
money is recommended.
The resolution asks that under no
circumstances shall any Of the exist
ing highway levies be repealed.
The senate ways and means com
mittee considered the resolution
briefly, but reached no agreement as
to what should be done at this ses
sion. The houes ways and means
previously disapproved similar sug
gestion.
Some doubt was voiced that the
committee of the senate would bring
out bill.
The senate failed to pass the future
estate bill, but a motion to reconsider
was filed and it is probable that the
measure may yet go through.

Two offices Unnecessary.

Pierre, s. D.--InitialN steps toward
general investigation of the machin-
cry OF county government in South
Dakota looking to the consolidation
of various offices in the interest OF
economy and efficiency were set on
loot during a lively session OF the
county auditors association here.
Officers of various state departments
have declared that owing to changing
conditions the need of revision Is
growing. Possible elimination OF the
offices OF county treasurer and regis
ter OF deeds, modification of the coun'
ty commissioner system and adoption
of the county assessor system were
the chief points discussed.
