"You may as well be honest with
me, Roddy," she said slowly, "even if
you don't know me very we'll. You
don't want me here, do you?"
His startled frown gave way at
once to a look of perplexed dismay.
"That's a fine question to ask me,
Silver. he replied with a brusk
laugh, "just after I've apologized to
you for my stupidity last night"
~ don't mean that" she broke in
hastily. II know you mean to be kind
--and-and you feel sorry for me,
and that, sort of thing. But deep down
you resent my owning half this
land, you resent my right to be here.
And you are afraid of what your wife
will think of me-"
Roddy looked at her curiously, and
strove to speak as he would to a
child who was in error.
'T'll confess to your first charge"
he said gravely, cup to a point. I've
worked your fathers land since was
kid. I've always looked forward to
the day when it would be my own
property. was afraid last night that
I was going to lose it. But as for
resenting your right to be here-I'm
not quite as mean as all that, Silver"
He paused and looked away with mis-
giving as he sought for the. right
words in defense of Corinne. All
morning the question of how she
would accept Silver Grenoble had
plagued him, to his shame. His doubts
implied lack of trust in Corinne's
generosity that was notifying.
"And as for the girl I am going to
marry" he resumed resolutely, "you
wait until you meet her before you
jump at any unfair conclusions. You
are probably over-sensitive-" He
halted, hating to put into words what
was in his mind.
But Silver leaned back in her
palms, threw back her head and utter
ed dry little laugh.

Roody, never fear," she, said softly.

BATTLE over BONUS
GROWS WARM again
WIYHNEW PROPOSAL
Texas Democrat Leads Opposi'
ton to Harrison Com
promise Measure

Washington, April ls.-(ReRepre-
sentative Patman Of Texas, whose bill
to pay the bonus with new currency
already has passed the house, ap-
peared Thursday to be the most bit.
ter opponent Of the compromise bill
offered Wednesday BY Senator Har.
riso1 (Dem. -Miss).
The Texan lashed out harder than
other critics ct the proposal Of the
Mississippian, who predicts his plan
viii gain President Roosevelt's ap.
proval.
Ex-servicemen would rather lose
the bonus battle than accept the com.
promise, Patman contended. He
coupled this with prediction that
the house would stand by his bill.
Experts who aided In drafting the
Harrison bill explained that under
its terms . veteran holding . bonus
certificate which would mature under
the present law ct $1,000 In 1915
either could exchange It for nego-
table bonds for which he could OBJ
tain $770 In cash, or hold the certifi-
cate for 10 years and collect $l.ll5.
It was said that the average vet
eran holding such . certificate a.
ready has borrowed $500 against It.
He would have to pay off lis loan
and interest II he converted his bonus
into cash.
Failure Of the Harrison measure 20
provide for cancellation Of interest on
bonus loans, as both the Patman and
vinson bills do. was one OF the points
mentioned most frequently by critics.
Senator Harrison estimated his bill
would cost 81 800 900, 900, or . billion
less than the patman bill.
