Pollyop's subbing vol co )cni!tratc(l
Into tlio young niiin'.s darkening sen
Hlbllltlo.s, mid the ghost of a snillu
crept to Ills lips. Then slowly his eyes
closed. Tliu strained muscles relaxed
from aliotit lil tnoutli, leaving It i lore
boyish; and t litis did the .Storm coun
try glvo buck to ISvulyn UohertHon tier
freedom.
After that came dark days for I'oUy
oii. Kven the reproduction of Th?
Greatest Mother In the World, whlrt'
hung In Its accustomed place on the
fthnnty wall, failed to lift the heavy
load that rested like a stone In her
bosom. No more did she stand before.
It and dream dream of a deep-toned
volco telling her of love and a future,
dream of Ilohcrt's arms about her and
lier head pressed against him.
Up and down she went through the
Silent City, unable to smile, well nigh
titmblo to speak it word of greeting to
those she met. Ho sympathetic were
Jier squatter friends that many a fish
iind pan of baked beans found then
way Into the Hopkins hut.
Several times I'ollyop had made an
effort to see Evelyn, but the rich girl
never appeared as tho little trill
Hounded Just after nightfall In the
Itobcrtson garden,
In July came rumors that Evelyn
Itobcrtson was to marry Marcus Mac
Kenzle; and that he had bought the
Dennett farm of Oscar's heirs. Terri
fied whispers went from mouth to
mouth In tho settlement that he had
boasted how ho was going to clear tho
squatters from the Silent City before
the coming of Christmas.
One night the dark messenger to
"Whom no home Is closed slipped Into
the Hopkins shanty and summoned
Granny Hope. Although tho. absence
of the old withered mouth made one
less to feed, I'ollyop missed the oft re
peated assurance Unit somehow, some
time, love would nmko crooked things
straight.
Late ono day, she took .Terry and
the billy goat and walked through tho
Silent City and on toward the Hud
Muns Ravine. The picture sho had
grown to love In those long-ago spring
days still gazed out at her from Mar
cus MncKcnzlo's fence.
Thero for n moment Polly halted
and solemnly contemplated tho heautl
Iful face. When sho hud been happy,
and that was ages past, she had not
realized what the call In tho mother
plea meant. Hut as one after another,
her loved ones had dwindled uway,
nnd none but Jerry was left, a clearer
understanding took possession of her.
The same cruel force had attacked her
wnd the woman there. They were liv
ing In a warring world, trying by might
und main to cling to their own, Polly
op and this giant mother. The woman
asked aid for her vast army of sick
nons; and Polly's sorrow, touched by
her broad compassion, lightened u
little.
Behind her she heard footsteps.
Slowly sho turned her head; and al
most at the same instant tho person
stopped. Pollyop could not move or
force a word of greeting from her
tongue, for Robert Perclval was look
ing at her, his serious white faco hold
ing no hint of smile or welcome. For
ft long minute- they stared at each oth
cr; then the young mnn swung about
swiftly and strode away.
Crushed almost Into Insensibility,
Pollyop sunk lower and lower until
Jerry slid away from her shoulders to
the ground. Her beloved had not
spoken, nor had the pained lines about
Ills mouth softened even a little tilt I
Afternoon shudows begun to stretch
long over tho lake and crowd down
upon the Silent City, and still tho
tuiuutter girl knelt and wept out her
orrow and loneliness with tio ono
enr but tho large-eyed, sad little
I'hlld, leaning across the thin buck of
Hilly-goat Hopkins.
At length Pollyop arose, wiping her
worn face on her sleeve. Then sho
hoisted Jerry to . her shoulders and
turned for a last look at the lofty
mother of tho world.
Kor a minute she gazed steadily.
And then, through tho gathering
Cloom, she thought she saw n smile
hovering about the beautiful mouth.
Pollyop wont nearer by two steps. The
woman was smiling at her, and the
squatter girl, overwhelmed with a Joy
that hurt keenly llko a knife's blade
amllcd back, the tlrst smile since
Granny Hopo had left her.
Holding Jerry by one arm, sho
thrust tho other hand upward.
"IMggiist an' beatitlfutest mammy In
all the world," she faltered, "bless mo
an' Jerry an' an' Daddy Hopkins
wuy off up In Auburn prison."
Jloyorcutly she knelt with her cling
Ing burden, and then, swiftly rising
went back to the shanty, her pale faco
radiant jvltli u world-wldo blessing.
CHAPTER XII
Midsummer was full upon them
fjtd still Pollyop nnd Jerry hold to
tfcelr lonely tenure of tho hut. A few
fcart-brek'a letters- hud reached the
Bntter lrl from Auburn, and she
hud wtjyttflc!y answered thetn. Yet
la snl )f th dally predictions of th
ua)jei folk tlisrt Old Mnrc would

Polly wns happier. She could not have
explained, If she had been asked, why
the agony of doubt had given plnce to
a warmer glow about her heart when
she thought' of Daddy Hopkins. Away
off up-tliero In the gloom of the prison,
he hud received a mother's benedic
tion; Polly believed this with all her
soul. Jerry nnd she too had come In
for their share; and this new confi
dence lifted the shadow from her eyes
it little and lessened the stabbing hurt
In her side.
The thing that tormented her most
wns Jerry's constant mourning for bis
father. Day by day she hail racked
her brains for ways to amuse him, but
us soon ns tho novelty of the play bad
worn off, the old-time cry would bo
gin :
"Want to piny horso wlf my Daddy
Hopkins I Wee Jerry wants Daddy
Hopkins!"
She was looking at him one morn
ing nfter ono of his spells of weeping,
ml wistfully considering If thero
night ho a way to hurry him off to
Auburn for u day, when Evelyn Itob
crtson suddenly nppenred In tho
shanty door.
For n long time Evelyn's conscience
had miido her uncomfortable. Even
though her days were exceedingly
busy, the remembrance of the squatter
girl's pale, pleading faco tormented
her, and sho wns fenrful Pollyop
might not keep the promise sho had
mnde, and Marcus MacKcnzle would
be lost forever.
So astounded was Polly nopklns to
seo the girl that she neglected to nsk
her In. Overlooking this, Miss Itob
crtson stepped Into tho room In em
barrassment. "I'ollyop," she began, catching her
hrcathf "I just hud to speak to you.
I'm going to bo married to Mr. McKcn-
zle, nnd I came to talk to you about It
nnd and to bring tho baby some
candy."
Her expression grave with surprise,
Polly scrutinized her coldly.
"Jcrry'd rnther havo his Dnddy
Hopkins than candy," sho retorted,
frowning.
Miss Robertson drew back n little,
shaking her head.
"I couldn't manage that, I'm afraid,"
Bho said soberly, "hut "
Pollyop shifted uneasily.
"Mebbo you could get Old Mnrc to
say I could take Jerry to Auburn,
then?" she ventured. "Jerry'll dlo If
ho don't seo his daddy. He's gettln
thinner nn thinner every -day. He's
been yelling like mad nil mornln'."
Evelyn pondered on this nn Instant.
"Yes, I could do that, I'm sure," sho
answered, smiling brondly. "I'd love
to do It, too."
Tho forlorn droop nt tho corners
of Polly's mouth dlsuppeared.
"Mebbe, If I could got something to
wear " sho hesitated.
It had nuver occurred to Miss Rob
ertson how Pollyop innnnged for cloth
ing. Sho had so much herself sho was
blind to another's need; but, ns sho
had come to demand a favor, then per
haps sho hod better offer as much ns
sho could.
"Polly," Bhe ejnculntcd, "you'vo been
awfully good to me, and you can huvo
any one of my dresses you want, and
keep It too. And I'll pcrsundo Mr.
Mackenzlo to got you a penult to go
to Auburn."
Polly felt hcrhenrt grow big. Then,
after all, she could take Weo Jerry to
his daddy.
"I s'siwse I s'spose," she hesitated,
trembling, "you couldn't tell your cous
in" Her thront caught In n sob but
she cleared It, and went on, "Just tell
'lin Oscar wasn't my man?"
Evelyn Robertson had often lived
over the horror of tho minutes when
tho shameful secret of her marriage
to Oscar Bennett was so nearly dis
closed to Robert Perclval. Moro thnn
once had she congratulated herself
upon the cleverness with which she
had avoided that danger. To ho suro
her escape bud been at the expenso
of Polly'8 reputation. Sho regretted
tho necessity but reasoned that n good
name could not be much of a loss to
u squatter.
"Of courso I couldn't do that," she
returned sharply. "Why why should
you want"
The squatter girl's gaze lifted to
tho speaker's face, and tears wollod
over the fringed lids. Then Evelyn
read the truth; nnd her eyes glinted
and narrowed.
"Merciful Heavens, you'ro In love
with my cousin?" she exclaimed. "Is
that what you meun?"
Tho brown head fell forward, and
n tluiue-hot fuce was hidden In the
chestnut curls.
"And he loves you, too," cried Ev
elyn, In disdain. "What u fool I was
not to discover that before 1 How per
fectly awful I That's what has been
tho matter with him for months."
Sho snatched Pollyop's arm and
shook her.
"It's absolutely mad of you to think
of my cousin In that. way," sho con
tinued, her volco hoarso with fear.
"Promlso mo again' you'll never tell
him ubout Oscar?"
Pollyop shook her head.
"I've never told nothln'; I'vo Bald I
wouldn't," she replied thickly, almost
sullenly.
Then Evelyn smiled. Tho dimples
played hide ami go seek at the cor
neds of her lovely mouth. The steely
blue glint faded from her eyes, lenv
Ing them tho color of heavenly tints.
She wits certain her secret was us snfe
In the breast of Polly Hopkins as It
was In tho heart of the dead Oscar.
"You shall seo your father," she
said, dropping her hand, "and you can
havetiny dress thrive to wear. Come
up tonight, at seven. The folks will
be at dinner; and I'll slip out and bring
you In."
Then sho wont nwny, leaving Polly
Hopkins alternately plunged Into tho
depths of despair whon she thought of
Robert Perclvnl and singing with
glndncss over tho Joy In storo for
Weo Jerry nnd Daddy Hopkins.
It was still broad day when Polly
Hopkins left Weo Jerry plnylng by
the water's edge with somo squnttcr
youngsters and started for tho Robert
son home. True to her word, Evelyn
met her In tho grape arbor at seven
and hastily led her up the back stairs
to her bedroom.
"Thero nro the closets," sho said.
"Take anything you like, Polly, but
hurry. Tito cook's in the kitchen, nnd
the other maids are busy. I'll go down
for fear someono will come to find me.
There's tho dinner gong."
Once nlono In tho beautiful room,
Polly's gnzo swept Its broud dimen
sions. It did not occur to her to covet
tho least o these gorgeous surround
ings. Sho only wanted something to
wear to Auburn, something to cole
brute her visit and do Daddy Hopkins
proud. Sho swung open u closet door
nnd peered In.
Tho sound of Inughtcr somewhere In
the houso sent a wuve of terror over
her. Sho snatched nt tho first gown
under her hnnd, rolled it Into a bun-
dlo and fled down the stairs. Until
she was In the Inne again, she did not
brentho easily.
Once back In tho shanty, Pollyop hid
tho dross beneath her bed without even
daring to look nt It. How Evelyn was
to urrango tho visit to Auburn, she
did not know, but of one thing -she wns
sure, she had n beautiful dress to
wear.
After she had put tho child to bed,
nnd tho door was securely locked, Pol
ly drew tho curtains tightly over tho
small windows. Even the corners of

tho room lost their shadows ;' and "The
Grentest Mother In the World" seemed
to stand out more plainly than even
when tho sun shone.
Pollyop placed her wnrm cheek
ngalnst tho picture nnd smiled. She
earnestly believed this wonder-mother
wns helping her to go nnd seo Dnddy
Hopkins. She turned nnd looked long
lngly nt the sick Ilttlo man, then up
wurd to tho woman's face.
"You'vo dono so much for mo nn'
Jerry, ma'um," sho whispered. "Meb
bo somutlmo you'd make him smllo
Just once at me."
Then she took the bundle from un
der her cot nnd sprend out her trens
ure. It wus u dollcato shimmering
silk, nna in It wns tho color of the
sun Jnst beforo ho sailed over tho
western hill on his Journey around
tho enrth. Thero could not be such
another beautiful gown In nil tho
world, Polly thought. Then sho slow
ly slipped from her own ragged dress
nnd stopped n moment, contemplating
Daddy Hopkins' big boots. Even to
Polly's prlmltlvo mind they did not
seem to bo Just tho thing to wear
with such n dress. So tho boots, too,
came off.
As If she hnd been handling eggs.
Bhe drew on tho beautiful robo, her
bare neck nnd forearms gleaming
whlto In tho cnndlollght.
Then back nnd forth she walked, en
tranced with Its voluptuous loveliness.
But twist and turn ns best she might,
sho could not see tho wholo of hor
gulden glory; so she took down Daddy
Hopkins cracked nWe of mirror
which he had used when pulling out
his shnggy whiskers with tho tweezers.
Ily the aid of It, she could get glimpses
of her slim young figure nnd the grace
ful sweep of the skirt. Holding tho
glass higher up, sho studied her Blen
der neck where tho sun hnd tanned It.
Hut tan did not mntter, for Daddy
Hopkins loved her In splto of It,
All at onco she heard a knock
ngalnst tho sldo of the hut. Hastily
slipping out of the dress and folding
It, she shoved It under her pillow.
Then she put on her old dress nnd
opened tho door.
harry Bishop was there, extending
her n letter. Taking the note in
amazement, she smiled and thanked
him.
"Ain't you comln' In, Larry?" she
asked. "Klndn chilly tonight, huh?"
The squatter stepped Inside, his enp
In his hnnd.
"Yep, too cold for summer, Poll,"
he returned. "Say, brat, how you
gettln' on? Got 'nough benns left for
u while?"
"Sure, moro'n enough, Larry," she
replied. "I writ Daddy In my letter
yestcrdny how blessed good you'd all
been to me. I bet, when I get face to
face with 'tin. I'll teJl things I can't
scribble. An' now you go brlngln' me
this."
Sho tapped tho letter with her lin
gers as n mysterious smile touched
her Hps.
The man shook his head grimly.
"You won't be seeln' your dud very
soon, Pollyop," he muttered, "not If
I guess right 1"
"Mebbe 1 will," she told him, finger
ing the letter.
Sho liked Lnrry Bishop very much,
but she wns enten up with curiosity to
know tho contents of the envelope in
her hnnd. Perhaps, oh, might It he
"Wherc'd you got this, Lurry?" sho
asked, holding It up.
"I wus comln' down the lnne," ex
plained Bishop, "an' n feller nsked
me If I knowed where tho Hopkins
hut wns. I says, 'Yep, I'm goln' there
now.' Ho snys, 'Take this letter to
the Hopkins girl,' nn I says, 'Yep,' nn
an' I brung It."
Ho pnused, hoping sho would open
It In his presence. Being persuaded
she did not Intend to, he went out.
Ills footsteps had no sooner died nwny
thnn Polly sprang to tho door nnd
barred it. Then sho turned tho letter
over nnd over nnd looked nt It Her
name was on It; so It must bo meant
for her to rend. A thrill of pleasure
ran over her. Perhaps Robert bud
sent her a word of forgiveness. Ho
might have written that somo day he
would come ngnin.
With sparkling anticipation she cut
open the envelope and by tho light of
the cnndlo spelled out Its contents.
"Dear Polly," she rend. "I couldn't
manago that trip to Auburn. So sorry.
"E."
Polly looked dully at the paper, tho
words running Into bluck smudgy
lines. Then she could not go to Daddy
Hopkins nfter all; nnd Jerry might
die I Old Mnrc had ouco moro laid his
powerful hand upon her. Overcome
with grief, sho wept n while. Then
sho took the dress from under tho
pillow, rolled It carefully In n clean
cloth nnd put It nwny.
The shock of Evelyn's cold note
brought bnck the shadows to Pollyop's
brown eyes. As the dnys pnsscd slow-
ly by, and tho rich girl did not come
to the shuck ngnin, Polly lost all hope
of seeing her father.
Her decision to go to Auburn In spite
of Old Marc followed a letter that she
received from Dnddy Hopkins. Ho
was very lonely, he snld. Ho was
counting off ench day ns so mnny hours
nenrer the time when he could see his
denr children. With tho picture of
Dnddy's loneliness stnmped In misery
on her mind enmo tho thought that no
ono hnd the right to keep Jerry from
his fntiTer.
From tho time sho conceived this
Iden, It never left her thoughts. She
hud often stolen rides on the Lehigh
Vnlley train from Ithnca to the Silent
City nnd dropped off whero the engine
took n switch whllo the Buffalo Spe
cial dashed by. Why could sho not
stenl a ride clear to Auburn?
Whllo the squatter girl wns making
arrangements to carry out this
mighty plan, preparations for the
Mnclvenzle-Robertson wedding were
going rapidly forward. Evelyn, happy
Hi her new love, untroubled by sym
pathy for the clend Oscar, passed tho
days' mostly nt dressmakers and In
the shops. Her contentment would
hnvo been complete If her cousin Rob
ert hnd not looked so snd, or If sho
could have rid herself of the sense of
responsibility for his unhnpplness,
But hoping In her flippant way that
all would come out well nfter she wns
married, she gave little heed to him
nnd none nt all to Polly Hopkins.
Early ono morning Polly hopped
quickly out of bed and nfter n break
fast of bread nnd benns, began to dress
Jerry In the best ho hnd. The day
was chilly, and n fine rain drizzled
over the lake.
Pollyop wrapped Granny Hopa's
old slinwl around tho little boy nnd
tied a warm rng about his head; and
tho child, satisfied with his sister's
assurance that ho wns going to seo
his fnthcr, sat on tho cot wide-eyed,
watching her In silence.
