Under her hard-pressed cheek, as
she clung against him with lowered
head. she felt the rapid beating of
his heart. There was no thought
IN her, only emotion.
"Sidonia. Sidonia."
All denial was dead in her. She
was a woman and he was her man,
and she loved him without fore
thought or afterthought.
81 must not harm you. Tomor-
row the priest shall marry u.s."
A silence followed. Nothing
stirred in the darkened turret
room. "Marriage?" repe at e d
Sidonia's inner self, like a person
Weakening. "Marriage?" Such a
word had never risen above the
horizon of her mind. She was the
witch's daughter; she might be out
ragged, devil-mated, but priests
ritual could have no part nor lot
in her. And this man in her arms
was a christened knight, who knelt
in churches, and who, at his death,
would enter into the Kingdom.
Unless, through a union Of body
and spirit with herself, he was
drawn down into the red-lit halls
of perdition. The pulse of her life
halted like the feet of a traveller
who checks himself at the very
lip of an abyss. The warmth that
had held her was replaced by a
spreading GOODNESS. She-SidOnia
was the Satan-baited trap set in
the path of the young lord, and
should she once yield he would
fall Immediately beneath the
power Of her Master, and the night
would claim him for its own. She
saw herself suddenly as it were,
with wide open eyes-sealed to the
Master, moving among strange as
sociates, a witch, with the powers
Of a witch, whether she would or
no. Why, this very love was the
work of spell and philtre as she
had known in Sabine's chamber.
Then, this knowledge had gOaded
her to a passion of anger against
him; now, it flooded her with a
passion of pain. Oh, it was she
that was trapped It seemed TO her
that her soul struggled like a small
bird between the hands of the
Master. She uttered a little in
voluntary moan.
What is it, darling? Have |
grieved you? l should not be here,
but l swear you shall remain
sacred to me-"
His mouth sought hers again,
and murmured speech was lost in
the silence of a kiss. He knew
that he should rise up from where
he was and return TO his own
place. but the strength to do so
seemed slain in him.
So the dark minutes passed, like
floating leaves carried onward by
the stream Of time. And in the
sixty seconds Of each minutes
span the girl lived through a
decade Of conflict. How could
she rclinquish her man-her hap
piness? How could she drag him
with her own arms down into the
pits. How could she Ooh, most
impossible Of allD writhe free
from the Masters grip-she who
had yielded him her lips and
leaned on the thought Of him. who
had invoked the spirits Of the air.
who had cast a spell over the
hostile townsfolk, and upon the
young lord.
do you love me, Sidonia?"
81 do. / do" And her small,
cold hand, that fluttered like a
birds wing, carcssed his hair.
Then the floor rushes whispered
at the threshold, and someone
spoke sharply in the gloom.

KIMBLE HILL FOLK REAP
RICHES FROM PECAN CROP

JUNCTION, Oct. 30.-P)--An al
most continuous scream Of trucks are
vending their way through the hills
of Kimble County during the fall days
this year. loaded with pecans from the
virgin groves of the Junction terri
tory, en- route for Menard and Kerr
vile, the nearest railroad points. This
little post village, long recognized by
pecan buyers as the largest market
for the nut in the world for its size,
has already shipped more than $4,000
pounds of pecans, harvested mostly
from uncultured groves that have
sprung up along the banks of the
Llano river and its tributaries.
GET GOOD PRICES.
Shippers estimate that hardly half
the seasons crop has been gathered.
The years total shipment will proba-
bly, reach close to 100000 pounds.
Besides this large figure, the residents
will retain thousands of pounds of the
choicest nuts for their own use.
1t was not many years ago when
pecan shippers at Junction were con-
tent with as low as 5 to 10 cents
for their nuts, despite the scarcity of

'HAVANAS' BY MAIL
FROM CUBA FORECAST

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3O.-t4S-
American smokers may be able to get
their cigars from Cuba by mail if a
provision of a parcel post convention
to be signed here Saturday between
the United States and Cuba is ca--
ricd into effect.
The convention provides primarily
for increasing the weight limit of par
GELS exchanged between the two coun.
tries from four pounds to eleven, but
it contains a stipulation that if the
present American law prohibiting i'm
ports of cigars in lots of less than
5000 has not been modified within
eighteen months after the pact goes
into effect, it may be abrogated by
Cuba.
The convention is to 90 into effect
January /, and an effort will be made
to have Congress lift the ban on small
shipments of cigars before July 1,
1927. Tobacco products are virtually
the only product of Cuba which can
be shipped to the United States by
parcel post, it is contended, while
American manufacturers can send
great quantities of goods into Cuba
by mail and these interests are
counted on by the Cubans to aid in
the attempt TO have small cigar ship
ments permitted.

Before the highways were develop

pecans were left ungathered, as ship
