"I'll bet lt's u put-up Joh between you and Allx--" Martin sahl In Indul gent suspicion. Her Indignant glance sobered him; he hastily arranged money mutters and that night she got oft' the train in the dark wetness of the valley, and was met b.V a rush of cool and fragrant air. Cherry got a driver, rattled and Jerked up to the boase In a surrey, and Jumpt-d out, her heart almost suf focating her. Allx (ame Hying to the door; the <dd limn ! ghi find the odor of wood amok.' ,loured through. There was no need for words; they bural Into tears and clung together. An hour later Cherry, feeling ns if she was not the same woman who waked In Ked Creek this samo morn ing and got Martin's eggs ami coffee ready, crept into ber father's room. Allx had warned her to be quiet, but at tho sight of the majestic old gray head and tho fine old hands clasped together on tho sheet, her self-control forsook her entirely and she fel? to her knees and began to cry again. The nurse looked nt her dlsnpprov* Ingly, but after all, lt made little dif ference. Dr. Strickland roused only once again and that was many hours later. Cherry and Allx were still keeping their vigil; Cherry, worn out, bud been dozing; the nurse was rest ing on a couch In the next room.

As tho patent had boen sold for nearly one hundred and fifty thou sand dollars, ono-thlrd of lt, with ac cumulative Interest for ten yenrs, of which no payment had ever been made Anne, was a largo proportion of the entire estate, and the development of thia claim, In Justin Little's assured, wooden y voice, caused every one to look grave.

"That Anne could do It I" Allx Bald, over and over. Cherry seemed dazed, .poke not at all, and Martin had said little. "People will do anything for mon- j ey !" he observed once drily. He had 1 met Justin sternly. "I'm not thinking of my wife's share-I didn't marry ber for her money ; never knew she bad any 1 But I'm thinking of Allx." "Yes-we must think of darling Allx !"

"B-but the worst of It ls, Allx I" Cherry stammered, suddenly, on the day hofore she and Martin were to retuiu to Bed Creek, "1-1 counted ou having enough-enough to live my own life 1 Allx, 1 can't-1 can't go backl" "Why, my darling-" Allx exclaimed, as Cherry begun to cry tn ber anns, .My darling, lt ls ns bad as all that?"

"If they advise lt, and especially If Beter i advises lt when ho gets back, we'll light j Aline. And then If we win our light, i I'll always keep the valley bouse open, ! And If we don't, why i'm going to visit you and Martin every year, and per haps I'll have a little apartment some day-I don't Intend to board always-" But she was crying, too. Every thing ; seemed changed, cold and strange; sho j bud suspected that Cherry's was not a successful marriage; she knew it now, and to resign the odored little sister to the unsympathetic atmosphere of Bed Creek, und to miss all the old life and the old associations, made ber heart ache. "There's-there's nothing, special, Cherry ?" she asked after a while. ..With Martin? Oh. no," Cherry an swered, her eyes dried, and her pack ing going on composedly, although her voice trembled now and then. "No, lt's Just that 1 get bad moods," ?he said, bravely. "I was pretty young to marry at all, I guess." "Martin loves you," Allx suggested timidly. "He takes me for grnnted," Cherry said, after a pause. "There doesn't seem to be anything alive in the feel ing between us," she added, slowly, "If he says something to me, I make an effort to got his point of view before I nnswer. If I tell him some plan of mino, I can see that he thinks lt sounds crazy I I don't seem very domestic that's all. I-I try. ^Really, I do I But-" and Cherry soemed to brace herself In soul and body-"but that's marriage. I'll try again I" She gave Allx a long kiss In parting, the next day, and clung to her. "I'll write you about the case, and wire you if you're needed, and see you soon I" Allx saul, cheerfully. Then she turned and went back Into the empty house, keeping hack her tears until the sound of tho surrey had quito died away. CHAPTER X. Alexandra Strickland, coming down tho stairway ol' the valley house on an April evening, glanced curiously at the door. Only eight o'clock, hut tho day had been so long and so quiet that she had fancied that the hour was much later, and had wondered who knocked so late. She crossed to the door and opened lt to darkness nnd rain, and to a mnn In a raincoat who whipped off a spat tered cap and stood smiling in the light of the lamp she held. Instantly, with a sort of gasp of surprise and pleasure and some deeper emotion, sho set down the lamp, and held out her hands gropingly and went Into his arius. He laughed Joyously as he kissed her, and for a minuto they clung together. "Beter !" she said. "You angel when did you arrive nnd what are you doing, and tell me all about Ul" "But Allx-you're thin !" Peter said, holding her nt arm's length. "And and-" He gently touched Hie black she wore, and fixed puzzled and troubled eyes upon her face. "Allx-" he asked, apprehensively. For answer she tried to smile nt him, but ber Hps trembled and ber eyes brimmed. She had led thc way into the old silting room. "You heard-about Dad?" Allx fal tered, turning to face bim at the mon te). "Your father I" Peter said, shocked. "But hadn't you benni, Peter?" "My deni"-my ilea rest child, I'm Just off the steamer.

A blaze crept up about the log? nnd Allx ac cepted Peter's handkerchief and wiped a streak of soot from her wrist, quite as If she was a child again, ns she settled herself In her chair. Peter took tho doctor's chair, keep ing lils concerned and sympathetic eyes upon her.
