"Well, I really don't know whht w? are going to do wtth Lydln," sighed Mrs. Cranston. "She didn't seem to enjoy herself a bit tonight. Just think of itl Why, I could hear whispering all over the rooms, 'Where is she? Is that her? My, ain't she pretty! They found her in bed, the gas burning low. her face to the wall. Kitty disrobed noiselessly nnd got Into bed. She lay (till for n moment, then she said suddenly: **Ix>ok heno, are you?well, I declare, jnou are crying!" There was no response. Klttv was quiet for several minutes, then she roee. "In the excitement of it all," ahe said, "I forgot to sny my prayers. Fd better get it done. Those two women fell into my trap with a dull thud Just now. I'll tell you about it in the mprnlng." Lydla still made no sound nor movement to indicate that she was awake, but Kitty knew she was. Kitty knelt at the bedside for several minutes; then she rose, with a sigh, and got hack under the covers. "If It will do you any good," she said, "I'll tell you I've be?*n praying about this thing. I don't believe God pays the least attention to people who pray about wet weather In dry season or dry weather In wet, but somehow I believe he listens when you call his attention to real downright heart suffering. I told him J was at the end of iny rope and that he ought to try to help you and George out of tho moss you are In. You are both too good and sweet and noble to"? There was a sudden en tell In Kitty's voice, nnd a nob struggled Into her throat a ad shook her froiu head to foot. "Now, what's the matter with you?" Lydia suddenly exclaimed, and she turned over and put her srins about ber friend. "Don't, don't, Kitty!" Then they cried silently together until they fell asleep. CHAPTER XXVIII. mHE next morning, nfter his return from Atlanta, George met ItaHcom Trultt at the warehouse. "Brought yore mother in with mo," he said. "I left 'er up at the postotlloe readln' a letter. She'll be down directly. I missed you at the reunion, but 1 heard you was on hand. Ix?rd, I missed the sidewalk, they tell mall met some old friends that kept to tho neck through the whole buwtpcss. I couldn't toot my hngle." "That's one way to celebrrtte," Georgo said, with a smile, as Xrultt wuif turning away. .?' * A few minutes later Mrs. Burkjey came Into the ofilee. She woro a check ed gingham sunbonnet and it was pulled well down over her face.., In her hand ahe held a letter. Ity her alienee and agitated manner George knew she had received unpleasant news. He placed a chair for her near hla desk and resumed his own seat, wondering what could have happened. "You have a letter from father." he aald tentatively. "Not from him, George, but It's from up thnr. It's from the prison ddctor." fllie was silent a moment, thsh she continued: "Yore pa's bud off, George. The doctor thinks he's had * serious attack. It's that old hurt pU$s la his nnj iiiu nvrKincc 11ns ueen iu ncr family for 200 years. Have you been IntroducedY And yet the object of It nil nat on a divan hnlf the evening talking to a married Presbyterian minister, who didn't even have on an evening suit." "Really, I was proud of her," declared. Mrs. Dunlelgh. "Bhe's just a pure, sweet, unspoiled girl, niul everybody knew It by her modest, shrinking manner. That's why she created such a furore, nnd why Governor Telfare la such a fool about her. When she declined to go out to supper with him j and In such a sweet, natural wnv sua- I geated that he tnkc you Instead, I was , afraid he might be offended, but ho j took it beautifully, and?well, it did 1 look better. She wasn't going to put herself In such a conspicuous position 1 if she could avoid it, and, on the whole, . I think she was right." "Well, I'm going to bed," said Kitty. ! "Yon two hens can stay off the roost , and cackle all night If you like, but I'm ! sleepy." "She's au original creature," said j Mrs. Punleigh, when Kitty had left them. "I wish you'd share her with me." "She's that way all the time," said Mrs. Cranston. "Almost too indeprnd- 1 ent to be a favorite with men. but won* 1 en adore her. She's very exacting? wants men to be more perfect than | they are. I really think she admires George Buckley, and she won't lmlp me with l.ydia a bit." When Kitty returned to T.ydla she head' that be got when be fell otr tb? wagon fifteen year ago. The doctoi cnyn't tell how It'll come out, but h? says I'd better be up thar. Yore pn keeps nxln' fer me. I cayn't refuse Mm, George." The speaker suddenly paused and applied her handkerchief tc her eyes. "Well, you can go, of course," sal<3 George. "Oh, kin I?" alio exclaimed. "I wai afeard you wouldn't want me to. I'd rather go, George. I sorter hardened my heart agin 'im when he wns stoul an' well, but now he's sufforin', I want to be with Mm." She broke down and began to cry again. "There Is nothing on earth to hinder you," said her sou, who was deeply touched by her emotion, "and If you want me to do so, I'll go, too, mother. He's my father?the only oue I ever had, and"? "One of us will be enough," said Mrs. Buckley. "But, George, I've been Btudyln' since I got this letter. I never thought of it before, but I never knowed yore pa to do a dishonest act till he had that fall an' hurt his head. I read in the Index t'other day wliar a good man had got a lick in the head an' it made a demon out o' him till the doctors operated on him nil' cured 'im. Oh, George, it may be that a-way In yore pa's case, an* them twelve men an' the judge jest sent a pore sick man off fer what he couldn't help. It wasn't managed right. Somebody ought to Ml' fetched up that point, lie mighty nigh made life unbearable fer us all, but tho chain gang wasn't the place fer a man In his condition." She hful pnslied bnck her bonnet and her gray ej*es were (lashing rebelllously. George was deeply moved. "That's right, mother," he said ndmlringly, his tine face aglow, "stick to him. I remember, when I was a very little fellow, that he was kind nnd gentle with me, and although he treated me pretty badly after I grew up I never co\ild forget that period. Yes, you must go to him and do all you can for his comfort. I'll pay for it." "Oh, George, George!" the old woman cried, standing up. "It don't seem right fer you to"? "I want to do it, mother," he said simply and firmly. "You must take the night train, and remember, you are to spare no expense." "I said I felt relieved to have 'lm go off," whimpered Mrs. Buckle}*, "but after awhile I missed 'im, nn' ef I could 'a* had 'lm back without the responsibility of what he'd do I'd 'a' been willin'. When me 'n' 'lm got married it was so different. George, I'd 'a' picked yore pa out of n thousand men. I was so proud of *Im, an' was the hap plost woman alive for several years after yon was Ixirn. George, ef lie pits well and serves his time out 1 think me 'n' 'lm had better move olT somers whar we don't conflict with yore interests. I see my duty clearer now. I'll stick to Mm fer better or worse as long as me or Mm lives." George Buckley's head sank for an Instant, then he looked up and gazed at her tenderly. "There is nothing, mother, that can keep me from being with you and hiiu. When his time is out we'll all live together. I've made up my mind on that point. He's a convict, and I want things different, but he's my father anil you are my mother, and that settles it." The old woman started away. She had renehed the door, but turned back and stood near him. "George," she said huskily, "you are a good boy," and then she slowly walked away. She came In about the middle of the afternoon ready for her train, and rtf he was walking with her to the sta tlon she surprised liini with a confes slon. "I don't think I ort to keep back i thing from you. George," she said, "an I'm goln' to tell you some'n' I did tha I don't feel right about." "What was that, mother?" "George"?she looked up hesitating ly, as If dreading his displeasure?"] seed Bydlu Cranston ng'ln. Jest a da.t or two before she accepted the govern or's invite to Atlanta she drlv out liom* In her buggy an' come In to see me She didn't ax mo not to tell you, bu I'm sure she wouldn't want you t< know. She told me nil about her trou ble, cryln' like 'er heart ud break. Ilei pa was in a critical condition an* want ?'ef to go, an' 'or inn was dlngdong at 'er night an' day. She didn' say right out that she loved you. bu her actions said it, an' she knowed understood. She don't like that nun n bit, but her pa wants 'er to marr; 'lm, an' she's afeard It will kill Mm e she refuses. George, she axed me rigli out what I thought she ort to do, an to save my life I didn't know?I couldn' tell. She told me she loved me, George that her own mother never'd been goo< to 'er an' never understood 'er an' tha she'd come to me for advice. I liuggei her up in my arms, an' she sobbed lik a buby, but we never got no nighe solvin' the riddle. When she wen down to the big party the governo give 'er, I thought maybe she'd decld ed to marry to suit 'er folks." "She has," Buckley said, swallowini his emotion. "But let's not talk abou It. That's all over, mother. She and Uvo in absolutely different worlds." !, "No, you don't, nuther," said Mm Rlicklov "SUin'a lout n crnrul nnliirnl lovln' woman that wants to <lo lie duty nccordln' to her lights. but tha j'la n alght agin you both, an' tlinr's n< I glttln' round It.

"Anything I car 1 do for you?" "Well, not exactly frer me," said th? man, "but old Squire Deck?2 reckoi you know him, over In Gilmer?" "I know of him," George responded. "Well, he sent mo to ax ef you urn would let Mm put his will In your saft ?that la, ef you got one; the squirt didn't know whether you had or not." The man was looking about the room, "I don't see none, I'm shore." "It's there In the vault," George ex plained, pointing to the big steel door. "Oh, It's In thnr? Well, I reckon it's good an' strong." "One of the best In the country," George snUl. leaving hla. bUb stool and opening the outer dooryj]ji "One o* them com/^JJnatlor locks?"

I never did like the 'notion o' them combination locks, as tor's I'm concerned,' said the man. "Too many folks has got the password into 'em. Now, a good, stout key that shoves a steel holt Into a good, strong socket Is hard to beat" "I'm the only one about here that knows this combination," Btickley explained politely. "We change It quite uy ix iuiik miui. >*t; aiiuw our uuniinm \ as well ns you know yore'n, an' tliar'i no need tollin' you of you don't git i * move on yoreself an* open that sat you'll never open It ag'ln." "Thnt's It, then?" " "Yes, thnt's It. This Is one time whei you've got to knuckle ur git the wus 7 of It." ' George glanced toward the fron door. "You needn't be lookln' fer a wa; ( out," said the mountaineer, "an' yoi * needn't expect the night watchman t be pncln' along by here. He's dem r drunk. I know, kase I furnlsfted th liquor an' seed It take effect." "So you think you can force me int this thing," said George. "Do yo' 1 know, I'd rather dlo right here thai let you rob that safe while It Is In in; 1 caro?" k "Oh, come off; you are no fpol, Buck r ley. Open the safe. We are not her \ to pnlnver.

The man turned out of the wartshouse, crossed the railway tracks and walked on till be.was In the woods on the edge of the village. Here he was met by two other men who, glancing about furtively, came out Into the open to meet him. George had considerable work to do that night In the oftlce. The safe was already closed and tlio front and rear doors of the building were locked and barred. Countrymen often came about the warehouse early In the evening, and, as he wished to be undisturbed, he closed the door to keep them from knowing he was there. He also closed the heavy wooden shutters of the front windows that the light of his lamp might not show through to the street. He worked on unconscious of the passage of time from 8 o'clock until near midnight. Suddenly ho detected a sound like the crunching of a grain of wheat under foot, and, looking'round, he saw three bchind.jdm with leveled revolvers. ^ "What does this mean?" he asked, his eyes fixed on the rigid face of the man whom he recognized as his visitor of that afternoon. "Is this a trap?" "That's about the size of It, young man," was the cool reply. "Now, yon keep yore seat on that stool an' don'1 bat yore eye. The fool on my left'f | got a gun that's powerful easy on trig ger, an* It's all he kin do to keep lib finger up. Don't shoot Mm, Bill, til I've give Mm a chance." "What Is It you want?" George asked He was not frightened, but the sltua tlon certainly was a grave one, and be felt that he had little, If any, ehanci ' for his life.

The prime minister had his ehocolate In bed every morning at half past 10 o'clock, rend novels until half past 12, then dn <sed and did a little, work for an hour, had luncheon at a quarter, past 2 o'clock and started out In hflr-motor enr for the links, whore he plaVcd golf until 7 o'clock In the evening.

"There Is a little too much bridge , whist In that vacation Tor most men," said Dr. Joseph Collins, whose speclnl' ty Is American nerves, "but in other ' respects the prime minister's plan is , an Ideal one.
