"I'll stay at the club." "And as soon ai I can go," Cherry added feverishly, "I shall Join Martin. I'll wire him tomorrow-this ls Sun day-and 1*11 go on Wednesday I" Peter sprang over the porch rall and vanished, walking with swift ener gy up the trail that led toward the mountain. For the rest of the day Cherry lived In a sort of daze of emotion ; some times she seemed to be living two lives, side by side. In the one was her old happy relationship with Alix, and even with Peter, the old Joking and talking and gathering for meals, the old hours In tho garden or beside the Ure, and In the other was the confused and troubled arid ecstatic conscious ness of thc new relationship between Peter and herself, the knowledge that he did not merely admire her, did not merely feel for her on unusual affec tion, but that he was consumed by a burning adoration of her slightest mo tion, the tum of her wrist, the smile she gave Kow at breakfast time, the motion sha made when she stopped to tie her shoe or raised her arm to break an apple from the low, dusty branches. The glory of being so loved enveloped her like a great shining garment, and her cheeks glowed softly rosy, nnd there was a new and liquid softness, a sort of shining glitter, In her blue eyes. Peter was quiet that evening, and was gone the next morning when the sisters came out to breakfast. He lind .'eft a message lo the effect that he would not be at home that night, nnd at four o'clock telephoned confirming the message. Allx chanced to answer the telephone, and Cherry, who was In her room, heard Peter's name, and stood still, listening with a shock of disappointment. Hut at eight o'clock that evening, when she and Allx were sitting on the porch, when the last ebbing pink of the sunset had faded and great spiders had ventured forth Into the dusk and the dews, there was a sudden hail at the gate, and Cherry knew that lt was he I A flood of utter, Irrational hap piness rose In her heart ; she had been racked with hunger for the sound of that voice; she had been restless and unsatisfied, almost feverish with long ing and doubt ; now peace caine again, and content ' He eenie up to them, his glance resolutely averted from Cherry, ex plaining that he was lonesome, assur ing them that everything went well and making them laugh with nn ac count of Justin Little's reception of the new turn of affairs. "He seemed absolutely dumfounded," Peter said. H eemod Absolutely Dumfounded. 1 "He looked at the paper, read lt, j laughed and said-in that little nerv ous, smiling way of his-that bo felt lt to be by no means conclusive-" "I cnn bear him 1" giggled Alix. "And I guess both you girls will have to come In in a day or two," Peter continued. "Cherry's going In to tho dentist to morrow," sn ld Allx. "Oh, so I nm I" Cherry said in a rather strained voice. She did not look at Peter, nor did he at ln?r, but they felt each other's thoughts like a spoken word. "Had you forgotten?" Allx naked. "I don't think PH go In, for I have about a week's work here to do." Peter left them, wltlu it one word or look for Cherry, who went back to the house with her sister in a most agitated and wretched state of mind. She bad the telephone In her band, to caucel the engagement with ber den tist, when Alix suddenly consented to accompany her into town ; "and at lunch time we'll take a chance on the St. Francis, Sis," Alli said, Innocently, "for Peter almost alway? lunches there !" Feeling thnt the question was se*? tied, yet restless and unsatisfied still, Cherry dressed for town ; they climbed Into the car; Allx's firm bands, In yel- j low chnmols gloves, snatched nt the wheel ; the die was cast. Yet at the station another change of plan occurred, for ns Allx brought the i car to the platform Anne came toward ' them from the arriving train, a gloved and demure and smiling Anne, aux lons, alie explained, to falk over this newest development, and "whether lt proved to he of any value or not," to try to find out what Uncle Lee had really wanted for them all, and then agree to do that In a friendly manner, out of court. "My firs; feeling, when Frenny told nie." 'Mt'"* Anne, chatting pleasantly In the shade, "was one of such relief! For I hadn't wanted all that money one Mt," she confessed gally. "? only wanted to do what was fair. Only two or three nights ago I said to Frenny that it really belonged to us nil, and Inst night we talked and talked about lt, and the result waa that I said that I must see the girls we three are the otdy ones concerned, after all, and"-Anne's old half-merry and hall-pouting manner was un changed-"what we decide ls what really matters I" she finished. "Why, there ia no question that lt's Daddy's handwriting," Cherry said, with what, for her, was sharpness, "and lt seema to me-lt seems to nie, Anne-" she added, hesitatingly. "That you have a nerve I" Allx fin ished, not with any particular venom. "That document throws tho case out of court," she suld flatly. "Peter ls confident of that!" Anne's pale face flushed and her eyes narrowed. Cherry was flushed and uncomfort able. There was an awkward pause. "Ponrd?" shouted a trainman, with a rising inflection. The sisters looked at each other In a panic of haste. "I can't leave this car here," Allx exclaimed. "I've got to park her and lock her and everything! Hun; get on board, Cherry. I don't have te go In, anyway-you've got a date!" Cherry's heart leaped, sank coldly, and leaped again, as with a swift nod of parting she hurried for her train. The other two women watched her with forced interest as she climbed on board mid as the train slipped noiselessly out of sight. It curved among the redwoods and was gone be fore either spoke again. Then, as her eyes met Anne's friendly, questioning smile, Allx said awkwardly: "I think the only thing to do is for you and Justin to take this up with Peter, Anne.

They exchanged a few inore sentences, wasted words and angry ones, and then Anne walked ever to a ?eat in the shade, to walt tor another train, and Alix, with her heart beating hard and her color high, drove at mad speed back to the moun tain cabin. "I didn't ask her to lunch-I don't carel" Allx said to herself, In agita tion. "She and Justin know they're beaten-they're Juat trying to patch it up before lt's too late-I don't care -I won't have her think she can get away with any such scheme-I" (To be Continued) The next time you buy calomel ask for The purified and refined calomel tablets that are nausealess, safe and sure.
