written by J. b. McCarty, vice

to a large number of party members.
In the letter Mr. McCarty urges all
good democrats to get behind Bryan
and Hitchcock and promises that the
democratic daily press of. the state
will support this slate.

peal are being forwarded to Mr. But

Marriage of Barry Wicklow
By RUBY M. AYRES
Copyright, 1922.
t(Miiaw4 tnm .
Barry walked over to the table then
ind helped hiimclf to I generous
whisky. He felt rather as if he had
been dreaming; it had been such a
preposterous mterview. How. in the
name of all that was holy, could he
calmly appropriate the girl on whom
Norman had set his heart? A girl
whom he had never seen, and never
wished to seel It was all rot to say
that he was always a favorite with
women all roll He thought sud
denly of Agnes Dudley.
He was practically engaged to her.
He really wished to marry her. In
the light of this new and monstrous
ueeestion he forgot their little tiff;
he remembered only that she was a
delightful woman, and that he wished
to have her tor his wite.
His uhcle did not know what he
was talking about ; the whole idea
was nreoostcrous. He should re
fuse, of course he should. There was
no need to even think it over. As
for his debts. . . .
"A note, if vou nlease. sir!
. - -
Barry took the little note on ine
tray and tore it open eagerly.
..... A - V. ,l..l,. !,
It
was from Asiies. No doubt she was
as anxious as he to make up their
little tiff; no doubt she wanted to
see him attain. There was a little
tilence. '
The seconds ticked slowly by; the
maid at the door fidgeted uncom
fortably. "The messener is wait-
g, sir," she ventured at lasi.
Barry roused himself with an ef
fort. "No answer," he said, mecnan
irallv
When the door had shut he passed
a hand across his eyes dazedly: he
could not believe that he had read the
little note correctly:
"Dear Barrv I have been think
ing things over since you left me
this morninsr. sind I have come to
the conclusion- that it will Dc oener
for us both tor our trienasnip 10
end. Though I have said nothing
before, I have noticed . a great
change in you during the last few
weeks, and I must admit that I no
tonarer feel to you as I did.. I hope
we shall always be friends and am
sure you will wish me every happi
ness when I tell vou that Laurence
Hulbert asked me to marry him
last night and that I have accepted
him. Ever your sincere friend,
AGNES DUDLtY.
When the first shock had passed
little, Barry Wicklow flew into as
fine a rage as a youne man could.
He stamped round the room and
kicked things about. He had been
made a fool of the unpardonable
sinl Agnes had been leading him on
for all these weeks, had allowed
him to look upon her as his proper
ty, and now she had thrown him
over thrown him over as careless
ly as if he had been an old glove,
and for Hulbertl

than any chap in London Hulbert,
to whom he owed money.
" This last recollection was gall and
wormwood to owe money to the
man who had cut him out, to the
man whom Agnes was to marry I
He would die of 'the shame of itl
He would never be able to hold up
his head again.
He was naturally a hot-tempered
man, and his Irish blood rose now
to boiling point. He took his hit
and a taxi round to Mrs. Dudlev'i
lUi. He strode past the astonished
maid with a face like She day of
judgment, lie was in the drawing
room brfore she could say word
or stop him, and had slammed the
door behind him, standing with his
U4IK 10 ir.
Mrs. Dudley looked up startled
i. . . ti. . i .
Muni nrr wnung isoic; men sne
laid down her pen snd Wailed quiet
ly. There was a little smite In her
eyes, only Harry wss too blinded
wiiii rage to see it.
"I got your letter," he said, hoarse
ly.
He took it from his pocket, tore It
across and across, and dashed the
pieces down on the table.
"There's my answer to it," he said
ana my congratulations. II you
prefer that little rat to me. marrv
him, and welcome. I suppose you've
ueeu playing up lor this all along,
when you refused to come to the
theater the other night. Well. I
suppose I'm well rid of you, if that'
all it's been worth."
Hi voice broke a little for the
first time. "I haven't got Hulbert's
money, I know, but if that s all you
care tor
'Harry!' She tried to stem the
rush of words, but he took no notice
He went on. passionately: "You're
all the same, you women; you lead a
chap on and pretend to care for him,
and then you chuck him over, and
leave him to get out of it as best
rre can. I thought better of you. I
mougnt you really liked me .
mis voice broke.
"Barry I" she rose from her chair
now, and held her hand to him,
but he moved back a step.
"You talk the usual rubbish about
friendship. What do I want with
your friendship? I've asked you to
marry me halt a dozen times, and
you've put me off. Not a man in a
hundred would have had the patience
nave. But im through with it
now.
He paused a moment; he looked
round the room With burning eyes,
Hurt pride much more than a dam
aged heart drove him on.
I hope to God I shall never see
you again 1" he said, violently. And
he was gone before she could say a
word or try to stop him.
bhe stood auite still, listening to
nis turious departing steps, and the
slam of the street door; then she
laughed.
So he did care for her. after
all. Well, she had discovered that
at least, and it had been worth while.
she loved him when he was in a
rage. Lately he had been rather a
tame lover. She was delighted that
she had so easily roused him; the
memory of his passionate eyes and
stumbling words made her heart
glow. He would come back soon
perhaps that very night and then
she would forgive him, and they
would be married soon, quite soon.
As for Laurence Hulbert! Barry
was juite right, he certainly was a
little rat! She picked up a portrait
of Barry, framed in silver on the
writing table and kissed if.
He was a man, in spite of every
thing. She liked his boisterous,
blundering rages. She kissed his
picture again. He would come bark.
ul course he would.
But out in the street Parry was
striding sway at furious rate. He
carried his hit in his hand; the blood
was hammering in hi temples; he
could not remember that he had ever
been so furiously angry. Fooled, and
by woman 1-
He tried to remember what he had
said to her, but could not. lie only
hoped that he had not spared her
He was quite sure that, whatever he
dh said, he had meant it all. and a
good deal more beside, lie ban
let off steam, anyway, and was a I
ready iccling- better.
If he met Hulbert, he quite made
up hi mind that he would tell Its sis
exactly what he thought of the
whole business. As for that money
he owed the little cad Cold sweat
broke out on Barry's forehead; he
hated the thought of owing that man
money; quite a lot of money it was
too, which Hulbert had advanced
from time to time. He realized that
by now it must have run into sever
al hundreds of pounds.
Agnes would get to know of it,
no doubt they would talk him over
together. Barry ground Uh teeth;
if he could only pay the little blioht
er back! Uut it was hopeless to think
of it! There was only hi uncle to
whom he could turn, and lie Barry
drew a long breath, his interview
of that morning with Norman's
father came back with a flash of il
lumination.
"You help me to put an end to this
infatuation of Norman s, and 1 11 pay
your debts and give you a handsome
present as well."
It was impossible, of course! But
if only it hadn't been. He walked
on more soberly.
It was out of the question, of
course; and even supposing it had
been possible, Norman was his cous
in; and to do a mean trick tike that
He shrutrged his shoulders and dis
missed the thought. Besides, what
guarantee had he that this girl, who-
cer she might be, would look at
him?
He knew that he had particular
claims to good looks; Norman was
thousand times handsomer. But
deep down in his heart Barry knew
also that there was a great deal of
truth in what his uncle said that
he was a favorite with women.
The knowledge gave . him back
something of his lost self esteem.
After all, Agnes wasn't the only wo
man in the world. He squared his
shoulders.
Anyway, it was a moral impos
sibility to db as his uncle had sug
gested; not that it was very likely
Norman was any more serious over
this girl than he had been over a
dozen others about whom he had
raved in the past. Norman had all
the Wicklow fickleness. But deliber-
tely to try to cut him out was too
much.
Barrv hailed a taxi and told the
man to drive to the hotel where his
uncle was staying. He would just
tell the old chap that it couldn't be
done at any price, that it wasn't any
job in his line at all. The sooner
t was finally settled, the better.
He was annoyed to lmd Norman
at the hotel instead of his uncle. He
looked at him rather disagreeably.
"Thought you were going away,
he said, shortly.
"I was I came back this morning.
"Oh!" There was a little pause.
"What do you want with the
guv'nor?" Norman asked, suspicious-
Barry did not answer, He picked
up a nueazine and started flicking
over it 4gr,
Norman laughed cynically. "I
suppose it's true, tlun?" he said,
alter moment. x
Barry glanced up. "What's true?"
he aked, with a growl.
"That the little widow has given
you the go-by. I heard them talk,
ing at the club this morning, and
didn't believe it; but I suppose it's
trueby the look of you."
' Barry sent the magazine spinning
down the polished table. "And what
if it is true?" he demanded, intently.
"Foor old ofiapl" There was
something mocking in his cousin's
voice. "I never really thought you'd
pull it off," he added. "She could
see through you right enough, my
boy; she knew that you found her
money bags more attractive than
yon found her." '
Barry flushed crimson. "You
mind your own infernal business."
he ssid furiously, "and get back to
your dairy-maid."
The words were a direct insult,
but they were provoked, and Barry
regretted them bitterly as soon as
they were spoken. He would have
apologized if he had been given time,
but Norman caught him up at once.
I suppose there s some excuse to
ha made for vou. as vou've been
jilted," he said, stingingly. "Rut I
must say that Mrs. Dudley has more
sense than I gave her credit for. I
dare say she heard about the girl
you were with in tne theater tne
other night everyone else seems to
have heard, and to have been laugh
ing at you. It isn't likely Agnes
was going to stand that." He looked
at Barry with n surer on his hand
some face. "Where did you pick
her up?" he asked with a ikU'stablc
inflection.
farry was while t the lip nw.
his life he hud stood a great deal
from Norman, realizing their dit
ferent positions, and how good Nor
man' father had been to him. But
today he was at the end of his en
durance; today he felt that he could
not stand his cousin's sneer and
jibes. He made a furious lunge at
him across the table, and missed.
There was a moment's silence, then
Norman broke out:
"That's not the way to get your
drills paid, my dear chap! And I
suppose that's why you're here. If
it's money you've come for. it will pay
you to keep a civil tongue in your
head. There's a limit even to what
any father will stand, you know."
Barry had pulled himself to
gether. He was horribly ashamed
of his los of self-control. He had
never had aNserious row with his
cousin hrfoie. It gave him cause
for wonder now, as he looked at
Norman's snecriiiB face, and for the
first time in is liie saw the dislike
that looked at him from the younger
man's handsome eyes.
