said tho Journalist cordially. "And
also, If you are running with the cir
cus nnd calculate on doing business
here today, I'll have you llrcd out of
town before noon. How are you?
You're looking extremely well." I
"Mr. Ilarkless," answered Watts. "I
cherish no hind feelings, and I never
aid but what you done exactly rllit
when I loft, three years ago. No, sir;
I'm not here In a professional way at,
all, and I don't want to be molested.
I've connected myself with an oil com-,
pnny, and I'm down hero to look overt
the ground. It beatH poker and finnan
all hollow, though there ain't as tunny
chances In favor of the dealer, nnd In
oil It's the farmer that gets the rakeoll'.
I've come back, but In an enterprising
spirit this time, to open up a new Held
and shed light and money In Carlow.
They told me never to show my face
here again, but If you say I stay I
guess I can. t always was sure there
was oil lu the county, and I want to
prove It for everybody's bcnellt. Is It
all right V"
"My dear fellow," laughed the young
man, shaking the gambler's hand again,
"it Is all right. I have always been
sorry 1 had to act against you. Kvcry
thing Is all right. Stay and bore to
Korea, If you like. Did over you sou
such glorious went her V"
"I'll let you In on some shares." Watts
called after him as he turned away.
The other nodded In reply and was
leaving the room when Cynthia detain
ed him by a nourish of her tly brush.
"Say," she said she always called him
"Say" "you've forgot yer Mower."
lie camo back and thanked her. "Willi
you pin It on for me, Cluirinmu?" .
"I don't know what call you got to
peak to me out of my name." she re
sponded, looking at the lloor moodily.
"Why?" be asked, surprised.
"I don't see why you want to make
fun of me."
"I beg your pardon. Cynthia." he said
gravely. "I didn't mean to do that. I
haven't been considerate. I didn't think
you'd be displeased. I'm very sorry.
Won't you pin It on my eoatV"
I lor face was lifted in grateful pleas
ure, and she began to pin the rose to his
Inpel. Her hands wore Iare and red
and trembled. She dropped the Mower
nnd. snylim huskily. "1 don't know as 1
could do It riaht," seized violently upon
a pile of dishes and hurried from the
room. i
Ilarkless rescued the rose, pinned It
on his coat himself, with the Internal
observation that the red haired wait
ress was the ipieerest creature In the
village, and set forth upon his holiday.
Mr. J.lgo Willetts, a stalwart bach
elor, the most eligible In Carlow, and
a habitual devotee of Minnie Briscoe,
wns seated on the veranda when Hark
less turned in at the gate of the brick
house. "The ladles will be down right
off." he said, greeting the editor's cool
finery with a perceptible agitation and
the editor himself with a friendly shake
of the hand. "Mlldy says to wait out
here."
There was a faint rustling within the
house, the swish of draperies on the
stairs, a delicious whispering, when
light feet descend, tnpplng, to hearts
that beat an answer, the telegraphic
message: "We come! Wo come! We
are near! We are near!" Llge Wil
letts stared at Ilarkless. He had never
thought the latter was good looking un
til he saw him step to the door to take
Helen Sherwood's hand and say, in n
strange, low, tense voice, "Good morn
ing," as If he were announcing, at the
least: "Kvery one in tho world, except
us two. died last night. It Is a solemn
tiling, but I am very happy."
They walked, Minnie and Mr. Wil
letts, a little distance In front of the
ethers. TIarkless could not have told
fcfterward whether they rode or walked
or floated on an airship to tho court
house. All he knew distinctly was
that a divinity In a pink shirt waist
nnd a hat that was woven of gauzy
cloud by mocking fairies to make him
stoop hideously to see under it dwelt
for the time on earth and was at Ida
side, dazzling him In the morning sun
shine. Last night the moon had lent
her a silvery glamour. She had some
thing of the ethereal Avhlteness of
night dews In that watery light, u
nymph to laugh from a sparkling foun
tain at the moon, or, ns he thought, re
membering her courtesy for his pretty
speech, perhaps a little lady of King
Louis' court wandering down the years
from Fontalnebleau and appearing to
clumsy mortals .sometimes of a summer
nlgJit when the moon was In their
keads.
But toduy she was of the daintiest
eolor, a pretty girl whose gray eyes
i twinkled to his In gay companionship.
Ho marked how the sunshine danced
across the shadows of her fair hair
and seemed Itself to catch n luster
rather than Impart It, and tho light of
the June day drifted through the gauzy
hat to her face, touching it with a deli
cate and tender tlusli that came and
wont like the vibrating pink of early
dawn. She had the dlvlnest straight
nose, tip tilted a faint, alluring trille.
nnd a dimple cleft her chin, "tho dead
liest maelstrom In the world!" Ho
thrilled through and through. To had
been only vaguely conscious of tho
dimple In the night. It was not until
ho saw her by daylight that he really
knew It was there. i
