Indeed, it seemed to her as she and Bart drove through the Vdarknes that it must be com pletely isolated. "Are you off entirely by your selves?" she asked B,art. ji "OU, no" He waved his hand. 'fThefe are estates all around here, Jjut most of 'em have lots of ; ground, and you can't see the j houses from the road even in the jiaytime. We're over a mile back rburselves." . j Gayle shrank back in her seat; then, feeling lonely, she moved .close to Bart and slipped her arm under his. ' She was becoming reajly frjghtened. From the first she, had, naturally, been nervous about the visit, but Mrs. Bartlett's . note had been kind. '1 am so Very - anxious," .she had written, to meet the girl Bruce loves, and so is my husband. He is very dear - to .us, ana we expect you to be -too."

Iro from Hattie fCarnegie or the Tue de la Paix, and she had made hers herself. She and her mother had thought it perfect, and Rose had pronounced it a dream but what did Rose know about dresses?. 99. SHE shivered, and Bart asked cnlifitriiicl-tr "VlJ rlor')" "Cold with terror," she con fessed, drawing as close to his side as possible. "I'm scared, Bart; I'm scared silly." The night rang with his shout of laughter. "What of? There's nothing to be scared of.'? "Yes, there is. My father is a professor in an Ohio college. I'm proud to death pf him, but he isn't rich, and yours " "Mine?" Bart interrupted, laugh ing again. "You can't be scared of . Father. Nobody is, not even the servants. I guess he was tough in his day when he was making his money, but that was a long time ago, and he's certainly nothing to be scared of now. He's kind of like a professor himself, I guess. Anyway, he doesn't care about anything any more but books and flowers." "But your mother," Gayle ven tured timidly. "She's very beauti ful, isn't she?" "111 say! She certainly is. She's a knockout if there ever was one. But she's the softest hearted thing you can imagine. I can get her to do anything I want to. I always could. You're my girl, and that'll be enough for her. You'll see." A mile from the road? It seemed to Gayle that Bart drove for miles through a forest.; and then sud- der4,yshe s aw a"" gr eattwjiite hbuse looming gitosHke before her. "Oh dear," she) thought ohceinore; "oh deaf." That wasn't a house. It was a palace one of . those incredible places -she had 'read about"' with ninety rooms and armies of serv ants. And Bart thought that some day she would be its mistress.

A LMOST, it seemed, beiua-s .cart stopped the car, two men ap peared. Both of them said, "Good evening, Mr. Bruce." One went to the baggage compartment and opened it. The other opened the door beside Gayle and held it while she descended. "Grease her up, will you, Tom?" Bruce said to the man at the caj" door. "There's a squeak." "Tonight, sir?" "Oh no. I won't want it before ten tomorrow." "Yes, sir." Gayle sighed. It didn't seem as if she could walk ut the broad steps before her. The door had opened, and she could see the butler waiting. What was ' she walking into? How had she dared? Bart took her arm and felt her sway a little. "Stiff, dear?" he ask'ed. She laughed nervously. "Stiff with fright. Oh, Bart, this is ter rible." "No, it isn't. Come on. You'll see it isn't in about two minutes. Besides, there's just Mother to meet now. Father has been in bed for hours. Come on, sweetheart." "I'm coming. Tell the family I faltered but did not flee and I want lots of music at the funeral." Laughing, Bruce put his arm around her and ran her up the steps. "Hello, Symes," he said as they passed the butler. "Where's my mother?" "Right here, Bruce, dear," a rich contralto voice answered. "I've been wailing." Bart released Gayle, stepped quickly to his mother, put his arm around her, kissed her lips, and then held out his hand. "Come here, Gayle," he said, his eyes smiling into hers. ; Mrs. v Bartlett held out both hands.VCome,-my dear," she said, "and let me look at you." , ;' Feeling '. like a drab scullery maid, Gayle approached shyly and i placed her .hands an Mrs. Bartlett's. If her life had depended on speech at that moment, , she . could not have produced one word. Jlo Be Continued) ' THE JOURNAL, track.

Speaking at North Platte, Curtis' democratic opponent, William II. Meier, charged that Curtis is "a political opportunist and the grea test politisal accident in Nebraska history." Curtis, he said, switched to the Republican party after his defeat as democratic candidate for Kearney County Attorney. Takees Issue Meier took issue with published statements that Curtis made a recent trip to Washingon in an endeavor o get the green lijrht on the Enders Dam project. "With his record of partisan opposition to the administration, Curtis is not in very good position to get a green light from anybody in Washington," Meier said. John Mekota, Democratic can didate for U. S. Senator, took to the stump after a one day absence because of a sore throat. His voice still hoarse, he sid, "there are enough parrots in Washington. What Nebraska needs is a senator who will speak up for the people." 4 - NUMBER - 4 or ?l;,C0t; per ctr.t on the Ci.p- it .1 investment.
