against him at present, I'll admit, but
he's husbanding his chips. He ain't
drawing wild and squandering his
chances. And he's only begun t play."
Hefore snow came fjat fall Steve
had recovered his outward confidence
at least. He had begun to hope again
while he .waited and labored prodi
giously against the coming of spring.
Eut in !iis heart he was no longer sure.
He eo aid not summon back that serene
seif surety which toward the end had
shahen even the girl's certainty in her
self. II" eettid no lonrer argue con
vincingly with a vision of her. as he
had often argued with Earbara herself.
that his way would be her way in the
end. for he had begun to realize the
width of that gulf which he knew must
seem to exist between them, if not to
her then to the eyes of others of her
world.
It was his memories which gave him
consolation those long nights, but they
also gave him doubt. Remembering
the daintiness of her as she had come
to him the night of her party, recalling
the things to which she had been ac
customed since she had opened her
eyes on the first light of day. he began
to ask himself, as every man like him
had asked who ever loved a woman,
how in any fairness he could expect
her to accept the little which he could
offer in return. To Steve and Eat Joe
to the men of his gang, his confidence
was that of the old, old Steve who ten
ears before had cocked his head at
one of Allison's switch engines and
promised gravely. "I ll hv to be git
tin' one of them for myself some day.'
Hut his heart ached, and when that
ache became so leaden that he couldn't
endure 'it any longer in silence he car
ried it to the one person in his life
who was best calculated to understand.
Dillideiitly he broached the subject
with Miss Sarah, approaching it in a
roundabout fashion least likely to de
ccive that bright eyed little lady.
.arry is saving ms monev against
the fatal day," he laughed one night
"He has become a rank miser! Joe
says lie goes for days at a time borrow
ing his tobacco, and he won't play
anything but penny ante now when he
can be coaxed to play at all!"'
. Miss Sarah was too,kind to look at
him directly that evening.
"The regeneration of Garrv is one of
the things which had made mv life
most happy,', she answered. And then
paving the way for what she knew
was on his mind: "I suppose you will
be surprising us yourself one of thesj
days. And no doubt you'll be just a
happily positive as Garry is that your
choice is the only one in the world."
t
They were alone in the big living
room. Caleb was stid in town gossip
ing w ith Hardwich Elliott. And Steve's
bruised smiie clutched at Miss Sarah's
hea rt.
""I!" he overdid his amusement." "I

loved his lazilv final statements. "Both
Garry and Miriam have been taught
that there are worse things than the
hardship of making last year's limou
sine do for another season.''
Miss Sarah laughed at this drollery.
She was a better antagonist than most.
She had practiced on Caleb.
"Can't one girl learn what another
has been taught?'' she wanted to know.
"Stephen, do you mean to sit there
and infer that you could continue to
care for a girl who could not care for

Ills reply told her how tired he had
become in trying to stem the tide of
doubt alone. It warned her, too. that
she had gone too close, for he veered
off sharply. Steve persisted in gen
eralities, but he wanted to talk.

said. "Women, they tell us, have broad

the altar and wondered if that wasn't

She chose to be suddenly vexed with
him.
"I do not "like such humor, and of
course you are joking. I have heard
Garrett Deverean talk in just stuh a
strain too often to be amused by it.
And if you mean"
"If I meant it I was crying the baby,"
stated the man coldly, and Miss Sarah
knew ..that he was rebuking himself.
"I could care for such a girl yes. But
I doubt if I would marry a woman who
hAd even the smallest doubt. There
are too many sharp places to be
smoothed over without chancing that
tragedy of discontent. It's merely habit
that's to blame again, that's all." He
cast about for a parallel. "One docs

And then we'd. Miss Sarah. 1 have

"We are talking of women. What

"That is very indispensable, too,
but"
"Of the two which do you always
take care shall not be missing from
your pack whenever you turn into the
woods?"
"I see where you are heading, but"
"I do not like dissemblance, Stephen,"
she warned. "You know-without the
Fait of love the sugar of life can grow
sicken ingly cloying."
He did not win his argument, but
defeat gave him far more happiness
than could have come from victory.
T-eavmg her that night, he closed his
hand over her delicate fingers in a
clasp which left her smiling in wonder
after lie had gone. She watched horse
and rider disappear into the whiteness
of the new winter till both were lest
to her sight.
"Bless the boy!" she murmured then.
"Bles the boy!" And to Caleb, her
brother, when he came stamping in:
"I surely must take a hand with th.es?
children. Thej have been left to their
iwn devices long enough."
Caleb had recovered his good natured
view of the whole affair; he was given
to grinning those days vt her flutter
ings. On more than one occasion he
told her none too flatteringly that she
made him think of an officious hen
with a brood which a hiuh rate of
mortality and prowling night raiders
hadeft bereft of all'save two of her
hatch. But this particular witticism
did not bother her in the least, per
haps because she realized how pat the
comparison .vas. Instead of silencing
him she showed him the l?tter which
she constructed some days later con
structed most painstakingly tho second
week in December. .She deigned to
read it aloud to him before she dis
patched it on its journey.
"Barbara, dear child," she wrote,
"this is the appeal of a lonesome spin
ster lady who finds that winter, still
only a lusty Infant here, is the season
ready done so I am going to fall back
upon the privileged tyranny of one
who once carried you in her arms.
You must come to me this Christmas!"
There was another whole puragrai 'u
of rambling, repeated arguments and
then a full page devoted to the beau
ties of the hills and season.
"The days are diamond brilliant."
she wrote," "and the nights as dryly
cold and crisp as Caleb's few last chei
ished bottles of champagne. We have
a foot of snowv two feet in the ell of
the house where the mint bed lies, and
that has afforded Caleb much peace ef
mind too. The roots will live nicely
under their warm blanket, yen see
all of which must read frivolously tr
you, coining from staid Miss Sarah. I
can only plead that already I must be
less lonely for anticipation of your ar
rival. Are you well? Y'ou will find
new roses fcr your cheeks in this cli-
uiaie. .Aiiu you may icic-jiaim
acceptance this once if you are too busy
to wi"ite, although you know I deplore
the lack of those punctillios which once
made of all custom and etiquette a
most charming thing."
It was signed "Yours, my dear, Sa
rah Hunter."
There was a quaint twist to the letter
"S:"' sharp augles in the chimgnipby
which a newer decade of femininity
might have found sadly lacking in s
largeness of loops now iadispeiisab'.e
as indication of "character." And
there was a postscript, of course.
"Stephen O'Mara h:t ; been several
times to dinner since your departure.
He is working very hard, but most suc
cessfully, I am sure, for he appears b
be very happy. Ho is thinner than he
was, but who could have guessed that
the boy he was would grow to be such
a handsome man! Men with eyes like
his ami such voices used to break the
hearts of susceptible maids when I was
sixteen. Ho ceme! S. II."
She read it aloud from beginning to
end, nor did she falter mu h when Ca
leb greeted the postscript with a shout
of joy. Caleb was most high spiritel
those, days, for the line in regard to
the progress of Steve's work was in
truth an understatement if anything,
even though the assurance of his hap
piness might have been called a mis
construanee of facts.
"What do you think" of it?'' his sister
asked pleasantly, when she had tniish
ed reading. "Will it do?"
"If you mean will it fetch her, I can
only say heaven knows!" Indeed. lie
was enjoying himself. "You feel iosi
tive that she cares for him. you say?
But I thought you were always in
clined to believe Steve rather easy to
look at, even as a boy?"
"I was," maintained Miss Sarah, lb r
voice grew giri'eh. "Do you remember
the night you gave him my oM bunting
coat. Cal. and he vent to sleep with it
in his arms?"
Some of the teasing note left hef
brother's voice.
""Then why do you tell Barbara-t-why
do you seem to infer" He floundered
hopelessly.
"Stupid!" said Mi.ss Sarah. "Will
.ho come?"
"She won't!" he stated solidly.
When he spoke in that tone Miss
Sarah always chose to believe the con
trary, and events in this instance
proved her right. Barbara did not
wire. She wrote a long letter full of
little twists and turns which led at
last to the subject which Miss Sarafi
had mentioned s parenthetically.
"I'm delighted at the prospect of get
ting away from town for a week," she
closed as she had opened her reply
"delighted at Mr. O'Mara's splendid
success. Last night I overheard fa
ther telling some business associates
that ho would one day be the biggest
power in the north country unless
something happened to check him
soon. That was very flattering, wasn't
it? It will make you very proud, I
know. Tell Mr. O'Mara I wished to
be recalled to him. As I have already
warned you in this letter, father in
sists on coming wiUi me. I think he
must lie a little tired of the city him
self, for he is very restless. And re
mind Uncle Cal that I am to have the
wishbone or I will not come at all!"
This reply Miss Sarah also read aloud
to her brother in a voice that was not
quite Christian, however, for it was
gloating in tone.
"There!" she breathed. "And. Cal.
aren't you ashamed sometimes to have
your judgment so often refuted by a
mere woman?"
"She fails to mention whether she c-vr r
noticed the color of his eyes" Caleb
choked a little "or -or the P.?f rt break-,
-eg quality of his Voice. IViybe she
hasn't noticed "ern yet hrreell. eh?"
Miss Sarah went upstairs to her
desk.'and she wrof? two letters that
night before she retire:!. One went to
Barbara. The other had not so far to
travel, but it was longer in reaching
its destination.

pated in obtaining the approval of the

misieree McCotd is exercising at
L .uisviile to conduct a hearing on car
shortage. A remedy more t-occ.iy and
certr.in is required, however, to re
iieve r-ueh a situation c, now exists in
the west, an.i the deplorrd.de rcitult of
the c-xi-'ting' car shortage is set, forth
in the preamble to the resolution
drafted by the Xebrakans.
The Interstate Commerce commis
sion is now considerin;" the advisa
bility o incTcasint; demurrage penal
ties in orde" to force more speedy un
1 or. ding- of cars and their consequent
hastened release for a new load. A
report was cm rent here today that
the Inte state Commerce commission
wil approve these increased penalties.
The Nebraska commissioners wil! ask
that the national commission consider
in this ccnectron the advisability of
increasing the per diem ler.tal of for
eign cars. The rate is now 45 cents a
day. It is thought that roads will let
loose of cars more quickly if the ren
tal cost , of cars is increased. -
Uniform application of an increased
rental would, ii is said, work such a
hardship on seme of the short eastern
read-, that tire increased rule would
defeat it j own purpose. Some of these
reads .vow have their tcrm nals filled
with "foreign cars which they cannot
unload and which they cannot get rid
of. The car shortage problem is acute
in Nebraska, but the commissioners
have found that Nebraska is in about
the same boat as many ether states.
Because of the widespread interest in
the matter it is believed influence
can be brought to bear from practical
ly every state upon congress and that
legislation giving the Interstate Com
mereo commission summary powers
may be passed through congress be
fore the holidays.

on il.e OmrJiu rru-.rl ct anil me.y ?'o to
even a higher figure with cold weather
and some freely predict that they will

ciiiehcus have begin to follow the
turkey in the advance in price while
r.cc-e "'.ihieh have not to any extent
bev-i iit'eted on the matlet will prole
eddy be ktis than the ducks;. A great
deal of poultry bes bec.il chipped nut
of (his city i itciy for the larger cities
and this will assist in nmiting the
prices a litlle higher than usual for
any of the toothsome fowls. There
are scarcely any turkeys raised in
this locality but a large number of
ducks., geese and chickens and they
are all bringing a gocd figure. With
the holidays coming cn there seems to
ba but little chance for relief in any
wr.y from the present high prices as
the demand exceeds the supply.
