Her happiness here was an hourly delight to both Allx and himself. She seemed to flower softly ; every day of the simple forest life brought her new Inter*st, new energy, new bloom, Sht tn* .Allx washed their bair again, dammed the creek again, tm m nod and sang duets again. Sometimes they cooked, often they went Into the old senseless spasms of laughter at noth ing, or almost nothing. One evening, when In the sitting room there was no other light than that ef the fire that a damp Juiy eve ning mode pleasant, about a week after her arrival, Cherry spoke for the first time of Martin. She had had a long letter from him that a.ty, ten pages written in a flowing band on ten pages of the lined paper of a cheap hotel, with a little cut of tho building standing boldly against a mackerel sky nt the top of each page. He was well, he had some of bis din ners at the hotel, but lived nt home; he had been playing a little poker and wits luckier than ever. Ho was look ing Into a proposition in Durang?, Mexico, and would let ber know bow lt panned ottt. Peter bad been playing the plano lazily when the letter wtis tossed to Cherry by Alix, who usually drove toto the village every morning afler breakfast for marketing and tho mull. He had seen Cherry glance through lt, seen the little distasteful move ment of the muscles about ber nose, and seen her put lt carelessly under a candlestick on tho mantel for later consideration. At luncheon she bad referred to it, and now lt evidently bud caused her to be thoughtful and a little troubled, "Mart may go to Mexico I" she said, presently, with a sigh. "To stay?" Peter asked, quickly. Cherry shrugged. "As much as be stays anywhere V* she answered, drily. "H'm I Docs that mean you?" Allx asked. "I suppose that's the plan," Cherry said, lifelessly. "He says ho'U want me to Join bim about the middle of August." "Oh, help I" Allx said, disgustedly. Chorry wue silent a few minutes, and Peter smoked with his eyes on the fire. "If-"Cherry, said presently, "If I get my money I'll have enough to live on, won't L Peter?" "Xou'11 have about forty thousand dollars-yes. at five per cent you could j live on that. Especially If you lived here In the valley," Peter answered, after some thought. "Then I want you to know," Cherry went on quietly, with sudden scarlet In her cheeks, "that I'm going to tell Martin I think we have tried lt long enough I" Peter looked gravely at her, sober ly nodded, and resumed his study of the fire. But Allx spoke lu brisk pro test. "Tried lt I You mean tried mar riage I But one doesn't try marriage I It's a fact. It's like the color of your eyes." "Allx," the little sister pleaded eager ly, "you don't know what lt ls-you don't know what lt Isl Always meeting people I don't like ; always living In places I hate; always feeling that my own self ls being smothered and lost and shrunk ; always listening to Mart complaining and criticizing people-" Peter Interrupted seriously : "I'll go this far, Cherry. Lloyd mnr ried you too young." "Oh, far too young I" she agreed quickly. "The thing I-I can't think of," she said, "la how young I was only a little girl. I knew nothing; I wasn't ready to be anybody's wife I" Something In tho polguant sorrow of hor tone went straight to their henrta, and for the first time Peter had an idea of the real suffering she had borne. "If I had a child, even, or if Martin needed me," Cherry said, "then lt might be different I But I'm only a burden to him-" "Ills letter doesn't sound as If he thought of you as a burden," Allx sug gested mildly. "Ab, well, the minute I leave him he has a different tone," Cherry ex plained, and Peter said, with a glance almost of surprise at his wife: "It's an awfully difficult position for a woman of any pride, den ri" Allx, kneeling to adjust the fire, as she was constantly tempted to do, met his look and laid a soot-streaked hand on his knee. "Pete, denrest, of course lt 1st But-" nitd Allx looked doubtfully from Ono to the other- "hut divorce ls a hateful thing!" she added, slinking ber head. "It--lt never seems to me Jus tifiable!" "Divorce ls an Institution," Peter said. "You may not like lt any more than you like prisons or madhouses; lt bas Its uses." "People get divorces every dny !" Cherry added. "Isn't divorce better than living along tn marriage-without love?" "Oh, lovel" Allx said scornfully. "Love ls Just another name for pas sion and selfishness and laziness, half the time !" "You can say that, because yot.-s DODSON'S LIVER TONIO INSTEAD OF CALOMEL, Calomel is quicksilver.

"It might bo very different If Peter weren't Peter!" As she said his name she sent him ber trusting smile ; ber blue eyes shone with affection, and the exquisite curve of her mouth deepened. Peter smiled back, and looked away In a little con tusion. "I can't Imagine the circumstances under wddch I shouldn't love you and Peter!" Allx summarized lt, triumph antly. "And Martin?" Peter asked. "Ah, well; I didn't marry Martini" tils wife reminded him quickly. "I didn't promise to love and honor Mar tin In sickness and health; for richer, for poorer; for better, for worse-by fjporgc !" Allx Interrupted herself, In her boy ha way, "those ure terrifie wot in, ju know. And a promise ls a promise!" "And even for Infidelity yoa don't believe people ought to seperatot" Cherry asked. "Nonsense I" Peter said. "Hut you snld-that Martin never-* "No, I'm not speaking of Martin now !" "Well, wouldn't that come under .worser'?" Allx asked. "Hut, my child," Peter expostulated kindly. "My dear benighted wife there Is such a thing us a soul-a mind -a personality I To be tied to a well, to a coarsening influence day after day is living death I It ls worse than any bodily discomfort-" "I don't see lt 1" Allx persisted. "I think there's a lot of nonsense talked about the fnmmy oncompreezy-but lt seems to me that If you have a homo and meals and books and friends and the country to walk In, you-" "Oh, heavens, Allx; you don't know what you're talking about I" Cherry Interrupted ber Impatiently. "Some timos I think your marriage ls as as queer as my own." Nothing more was said for several days upon the subject of a possible divorce. One afternoon Peter crossed the porch, tired and bot, and found everything apparently deserted. Ile dropped Into a chair, and was still breathless from the rapid climb up hill, when stray notes from the plnno reached his curs; a chord, a carefully played blt of bass ; then a chord again. 'Then slowly, but with dainty accuracy and even feeling, Cherry began to play a strange little study of Schumann. Peter knew lt was Cherry, because Allx's touch was always firm and sure; more than that, be himself had played this samo blt no longer ago than last U?4'ht, and he remembered now that Cherry had asked him just what lt was Ile experienced a sudden and pleas ing emotion ; he dbl not stop to analyze lt. Hut he bad been ruffled In spirit a moment before; Allx lind known ha was to come on this train and had not met him with the car; and while ho really did not mind tho walk up, he disliked the feeling that they had en tirely forgotten him. Presently there was silence; then Cherry tried another little study and finished lt, and tho hot summer still? noss reigned again. With a sense that he had been doz ing, if only for a few minutes, Peter opened his eye?. Framed In the cabin doorway, poised like a butterfly against the dark background of the room, stood Cherry, He knew that sh? had boen standing so for some tim?, for a fall minuto; perhaps more. They looked at each other In a si lenee that grew more and more awk ward by great plunges. Peter had They Looked at Each Other In Silence. time to wish that he had kept his eye? shut ; to wish thal he had smiled when he first saw her-he could not liavo forced himself lo smile now-to won der how they were ever to speak where they Were rushing-rushing rushing-before : he turned noiselessly und vanished Into the dim room. Peter lay there, and hts heart pounded. A moment ago he had been a tired man, fretted because lils wife forgot to meet bim; now there was something new In the world. And rap idly all the world became only a back ground, only a setting, for this extra ordinary sensation. The bills beyond still swam In the bot sunlight, the mountain rose into the blue, but the light that changes all life lay over them for Peter. Ho said to himself that lt was awk ward-he did not know how be could enter that door and talk to Cherry. And yet he knew that that meeting of Cherry, that the common exchange of words and glances, that the dally trifling encounters with Cherry were all poignantly significant now. He felt no Impulse toward burry. He might sit on his porch a a ot h jr hour, might saunter off toward the creek. It mattered nothing; the hour was steadily approaching whoa she must reappear. Allx drove tn, full of animated apol ogies. She managed the car far bet ter than he, and no thought of an ac? cldent had troubled him. The evening was warm, one of the two"* or three warm evenings thnt marked the height of summer even In the high valley. Thero was not a breath of air In tho garden ; roses and wallflowers stood erect In a sort of luminous enchantment. Moonlight sank through the low twisted branches ot tho rear-by oaks and fell tangled with black and lacy shade through the porch rose vine. Allx sat on the porch rall, every lin? of crisp skirt and braided bead revealed as If by daylight, but Cher ry's pale striped gown was only a glimmer In the deepest shade of the vine. Peter, smoking, sat where he could not but see her; they had hard ly looked at each other directly since the long, strange look of this after noon; they bad exchanged hardly a word. "Town tomorrow, Pete?" Allx said, after a silence during which she lind locked her arms behind ber head, stared straight above her nt the path the moon was making through faint stars, and yawned. "I've got to go lu to a meeting of the hospital board. Good night, beloveds. I'm dead. Don't sit out here mooning with Pete all night, Cerise !" Peter said to himself that now Cher ry would go, too, but as the screen door banged lightly after Alix, and the dull glimmer of Cherry's striped gown did uot move lu the soft shadow, a sudden reluctance and distaste seized him. He bad been subconsciously aware of ber all afternoon ; he had known a delicious warmth and stir at his heart that he bad not analyzed, If Indeed lt could be analyzed. Now suddenly he did not want the beauty and gloom nnd charm of that feeling touched. His heart hogan to beat heavily again, and he knew that he must stop the unavailing game now. Hut he bad not reckoned on Cherry. She twisted In ber chair, and be heard a child's long, happy sigh. "Oh, so am ? tired, too!" she breathed, reluctantly. "I hate to leave lt-but I've been almost asleep for half an hour I You can have all tho moonlight there ls, Peter." Her white figure fluttered toward the door. "Good night 1" she said, drooping ber little bead to choke a yawn. A mo ment later he beard ber laughing with Allx. 'You fool-you fool-you fool I" Pe ter said to himself, and be felt an emotion like shame, a little real com punction that be could so utterly mis read her Innocence. He felt lt not only wrong In him, but somehow stain ing und hurtful to ber.

She was also under examination by the special committee of Congress, which bus since 'made its report, and it was felt by tho cus todian's omeo that, under theso cir cumstances, they should bo lenient at that time in insisting upon Imme diate compliance by Mrs. Bergdoll with the demands of the government.
