Patricia raised her eyes, and j
her lips curved into a tremu
lous smile as she read the
itruggle in his face.
“I suppose now you would
like to -shake me again,” she
said, with a ghost of her old
mockery. “You’ve so often
said—Oh, Michael!”
lie had laid rough hands on
her shoulders, hurting het
with the grip of his fingers. For
the moment lie had lost him
self in the sudden anger that
(urged through him, and he
(hook her as if she had been a
;hild, till she fell away from
him, trembling, nml erying like
the child she felt herself at
that moment to be.
“Oh, you hurt me,” she said,
lobbing.
‘‘You deserve it,” lie an*
gvvered breathlessly.
He leaned his arm on the
mantelshelf and stood staring |
down into the fire.. He was
trembling with the force of his
own passion and the reluctant
(hame of what lie had done.
He knew that his hands
must have bruised her soft
shoulders, and he was fierecly
glad. Why should he care that
he had hurt her, when she had
hurt him so much? Nothing
that he could ever do to her
could make up for the past
fortnight of anxiety uud suf
fering
And he broke out suddenly,
hoarsely:
‘‘It’s not fair—just beeause
you’re a woman—you think
you ean hurt me, and goad me,
and laugh at me, and I shan’t
turn round on you beeause
you’re a woman. If I’ve hurt
you, you drove me to it Pa
tricia.”
She was standing leaning
against the door, her face
hidden, her whole slender body
shaken with sobbing.
Michael’s arms went out to
her with hopeless longing; then
i fell again to his sides.
What use to tell her that he
cared 1 She was not capable of
realizing or wanting any man’s
love.
He dropped baek into his
chair by the fire. The pain of
his foot and the strength of his
own emotions made him feel
siek.
He wished ratneia would
sto]) sobbing; he wished she
would go away and leave him.
lie had behaved like a brute
to her, he knew, but he told
himself that it was her pride
that he had hurt; nothing
deeper, lie leaned his head on
his hands, utterly wretched.
Patricia crossed the room and
stood beside him. She was no
longer crying, though her voice
quivered when she spoke.
“I came to you because 1
thought—I hoped—that in
spite of everything—you cared
for me—just a little,” she
said. ‘‘You need not he afraid
that T shall ever make such a -
mistake again.”
Michael looked up at her.
Iler eyes were filled with proud
humiliation, but now it only
angered him.
She had come to him because
she had had nowhere else to go;
because behind him she knew
there was always Clayton
AVold and money and all that
that money could buy.
It was not him she wanted,
any more than it had been
young Bernard Chesney die
had wanted when she had
written that letter and asked
him to come to her.
“I’m glad tiliat we under
stand one another so well, at
last,” he said bitterly.
He would have given his j
soul the next moment to have
recalled the words, but it was
too late*
She turned away from him
without answering, and the
door closed behind her.
Michael sat on by the fire,
leaning back in his ehair with

closrd eyes and clenched hands
He had behaved like a brute.
The thought stabbed him to the
heart, and yet he knew that it
lie could have the last hour
again he would do exactly as
lie had done.
Patricia had beaten itiin—ho
could not master her or make
h‘*r love him, therefore far
better to let her go. She had her
mother, and lie knew by in
stinct that Patricia would go to
her.
The room seemed filled with
her presence. There she had
been standing when he first
roused from his sleep—there
she had leaned against the door
and cried.
Those tears cried aloud to
him for pity and understanding*
but he hardened his heart to
them.
They had meant nothing
more than wounded pride—
they had been but tears of self
pity.
It seemed curious that after
all these days of restless long
ing for her he could have sent
her away. He tried to analyze
his feelings, and failed miser
ably. Patricia was either a
wonderful actress, or he a fool.
Her tears and distress had
seemed real enough when she
entered the room, but Michael
saw everything through the
distorting glasses of suspicion.
He was worn out with worry
and want of sleep, and it had
been a shack to see Patricia
so unexpectedly. He roused
himself presently and rang for
his man. When he came Michael
said:
“Just go down and a si; the
commissionaire if he saw a lady
leave here an hour or so ago—
Miss Rolf, I mean—and if she
took a taxi, and if he heard
what address she gave the
driver.”
Jenkins’ grave eyes smiled
faintly.
“I got Miss Rolf a taxi my
self, sir,” he said. “1 was out
side when she came down, and
she gave an address in Ken
sington.”
Then she had gone to her
mother! Michael gave a great
sigh of relief
“Thanks; you re a good fel
low, Jenkins,” he said grate
fully. Jenkins looked surprised,
but lie said, “Thank you, sir,”
in very subdued tones.
A bell pinged through the
silenee, and Michael half start
ed up. Had she come back?
Oh, if she only had! But it was
Chesney’s voice at the door.
“What the deuce is all.this
about an accident and you
being half dead?” he demanded
as his eyes fell on Michael. “I
only heard this evening and
came around at once. What’s
up, old chap??” For the mo*
ment he had forgotten his re
sentment, and his voice was
full of concern.
“A sprained ankle,” said
Michael grimly. “And a pack
of picturesque lies in the paper,
not authorized by me!”
“Well, you look rotten, any
way,” Chesney said bluntly.
“If 1 didn’t know better, I
should say you’d seen a ghost.”
“ Perhaps I have,” Michael
answered, lie paused. “Patricia
has been here,” he added de
liberatelv.
“Patricia! Here!”
“Yes.”
Chesney flushed up to the
roots of his fair hair. “My
God! where is she? You don’t
mean to say that you’ve let her
go again? For heaven’s sake,
wake up, man! Where is she?
Why did she come here? Where
has she gone?”
Michael answered only the
last of the string of questions.
“She has gone to her mother
in Kensington. Here, wait a
moment—”
But he might as well have
exhorted a whirlwind to pause
and take breath. Chesney was
to get it over with.

rules. It is too confusing.

Patrieia had come back! Tliat
was all he eared for. Fie would
never let her go again. He
would make her marry him; he
would never leave her until sh<
was safely his wife.
Perhaps he loved her in a
nore heart-whole way than
Michael Keif, or perhaps he
was utterly blind to her faults?
\nyhow, his face was radiant
is he waited at the door of
Mie litt'e house in Kensington to
be admitted, and bis heart was
racing with happiness.
Patricia had come back—
there was nothing else to be de
sired.
Patricia’s sister opened the
door to him— she colored with
faint pleasure when she recog
uised him.
“Yes—Patricia is home,” she
said in answer to his eager
question. “She’s with mother
now. Oh, Mr. Chesney!” her
pretty face, just a shadowy
likeness of Patricia’s, was sud
denly illuminated, “did yon
know that Patricia is my own
sister? Oh, isn’t it wonderful?
I’ve only just got to know it
myself. Mr. Kolf adopted her
years ago when we were both
little. Mother only told me this
evening—and I’m so happy—1
ahvays loved her. Patricia is
such a darling.
Chesney smiled at her eager
ness.
“I know—Rolf, Michael
Rolf told me,” he said. He
took her hand and pressed it
warmly. “I’m triad, very glad,”
he added, and he thought in
his excited heart that it would
he pleasant to have this little
girl for a sister.
“You know, you’re rathei
like Patriea,” he said, scanning
her flushed face- “There is
something about your eyes—
when you smile!—and now can
I see her, please?”
Mrs. Smith came into the hall
at that moment. She had been
crying, but she smiled when she
saw Chesney.
“How did you know she had
come home?” she asked him.
“Mr. Rolf told you! Oh, Mr.
Rolf told you 1”
There was a little note of
sadness in her voice. Patricia
had only told her very briefly
of that last interview with
Michael, but she had guessed a
great deal.
“You will let me see her?”
Chesney asked, eagerly. “Just
for a moment. I won’t worry
her.”
Just lor a moment, then,
and Mr. Chesney, you know
that she is my daughter?”
Young Chesney took her
hand and raised it to his lips.
“I am glad that you are her
mother,” he said, gently.
The tears filled her eyes. She
knew quite well what had
brought him here in such haste,
nnd why he looked so happy.
She caught his hand, holding
him back when he would im
patiently have passed her.
‘‘Don’t hope too much, my
dear,” she said, gently.
‘‘I’m hoping everything,” he
answered, doggedly, and went
on into the room where Pa
tricia waited, shutting the door
behind him.
it seemed a long time before
he came out again.
Patricia’s sister heard his
uncertain step in the hall and
came to sav good-bye- She
knew instinctively that it was
goodbye.
lie did not seem to hear her
till she spoke his name. Then
he turned and looked at her,
his fare so white and haggard
that she gave a little sorrowful !
cry and caught at his hand.
“It's my own fault,” he said,
trying to smile. ‘‘I had my
chance once—weeks ago, and
threw it away. It’s my own
fault.” Then he saw the tears
in her eyes that were so like
Patricia s, and he gave the
kind little hand that held his
a hard squeeze.

Rather Sarcastic.
rtom Mitchell (S. D.) Republican.
Plans are now being made for the
dedication of the national Rushmore
monument in the Black Hills next
July 4 It is the hope of the mem
orial commission to inject in this
dedication something of patriotism
that it feels has been lacking on
Fourths in the past.
Taking this desire into consider
ation the Rapid City Journal re
calls that Mr. Coolidge promised
to return to the Black Hills when
the Rushmore monument was dedi
cated.
That would be just “fine and
dandy.’’ Mr. Coolidge has such an
inspiring personality. It is so easy
for him to arouse enthusiasm, to
inspire patriotism in his auditors, to
awaken appreciation of the way the
Washington government serves the
Middle West!
Then, too, Mr. Coolidge is such a
popular favorite in .South Dakota!
He conies so near to being the idol
and the ideal of the west! He can
wear a 10-gallon hat and chaps with
such nonchalance! Where is there
a man to whom South Dakota and
the West would turn so rapidly in
its need as to Mr. Coolidge? What
man would do more to win for the
West the things it wants than Mr.
Coolidge?
Certainly if the Rushmore mem
orial project is to be formally dedi
cated next summer, let Mr. Coolidge
attend that dedication; let him de
liver the principal address; let him
shed the benign rays of his beam
ing personality upon the throngs
that will surround the base of Mt.
rfushmore where the likenesses of
;he greatest of Americans are to be
carved! The more formal the dedi
cation. Lhe better Mr. Coolidge will
do.
By all means if Mr. Ccolidge can
come to South Dakota again, if he is
willing to risk the tumultous re
ception that awaits him, if he can
withstand the prolonged ovations of
his innumerable South Dakota ad
mirers, let the memorial committee
bring Mr. Coolidge to Rushmore op
July 4 next!
For ourselves, we'd just love to I
be there and bask in the Coolidge
smile, hear the inimitable Coolidge
wit. revel in the Coolidge drawl,
imbibe some of the well-known Coo
lidge enthusiasm and replenish our
patriotism from the inexhaustible
Coolidge supply. No. he wouldn’t
say anything about farm relief!
DIVERSIFIED* PHILOSOPHY.
That hair shirt Herb complains
about !
I'll bet is not a patch
To those red flannels once I wore,
To come right to the scratch.
To dad, tough problems are those
things
Which from his mind will fade.
When sonny asks his help on his,
Oi the sixth or seventh grade.
Sound waves are used to start and
stop
Ships on our seas and lakes;
Now for the River horn that will
Set locomotive brakes.
For brokers who are farming now
I’ll neither wail nor weep;
For they know how to water stock
And how to shear their sheep.
Why give to him 500 words
To write that nistory,
Who ran the government on less.
Is latest mystery.
An actress has insured now
Her calves, also her thighs;
Her policy quite covers them,
Yet don’t obstruct the eyes.
