It was a hot Sunday aftornoon. The grasshoppers whirred nolfilly through tho layers of heat, tho leaveB on the toes looked dusty and shrivelled. Walt and Marian walked along tho road leading from the town and turned on an old wood road that lead up tho hillside under tall steady plncB. She was clad in a light summer dress and carried her hat In her hand. She looked happy and contented. He had not chnnged In looks from the dissi pated feckless Walt that he was wont to ho. but there was a something about him that seemed different. "I'm going to work In the Tornado shaft Wednesday. Marlam." ho was saying. "I've quit that other life, and for good. You " She Interrupted him.' "O, John, I'm so glad, and I know ypu'll stick to It You'e got It in you, ami I always knew that Borne day you'd wake up and leave Pi lure and his wretched com panion I'm proud of jo.i, John. I'm pioud of you,' and she held out both her hands to him. her face all sunny with smiles and her ees shining. He took her hands -.and started to raise one to his lipH. but she drew it quickly away, anil the light died out of her face. "You mustn't do that," she said gent ly. They walked on In silence for a mo ment, till they came to a clearing among the trees, which gave them a ew out oer the hills There they paused. Sho seated heisclf at the foot of a ttce and he stood leaning against Its tiunk, aboe her. "I'm sorry I offended jou, Marlam," ho said Shu looked up at him and smiled ' Dut it was unintentional I meant to tell ou something then, but oii stopped me. now ou must listen to me " She did not look up, but sat with her chin in her hands, ga.ing out ovei the hills. "You can't know what your friend ship has meant to mo; when a fellow Is down as I was, It's pretty hard to get up alone, and wlien he meets a good, pine woman who is a true friend to him and helps him and trusts and helps him, and shows him that there is something in life for him and points out tho way to a better life, why why he he grows to care for that woman with all his heart and bouI." Marlam rose quickly to her feet and Btood with her face turned from him. "For me Marlam, you are that woman, and I I love you." He reached and took one of hei hands which hung at her side. She pulled It hurriedly away and faced him squaiely; her face was pale and drawn and tears wero streaming down hei cheeks. "Oh! Why did you tell me," she said wildly. "Why did you tell me. I I" she sobbed. "1 love you but why did you tell mo? 0! I hate you." She ran a few stops from him, thoD paused and leaning against a trco she covered her face with her hands and her body shook with Bobs. Wait start ed towards her, but sho motioned him back, and he stopped and waited, with great staring eyes, for he know not what. Giadually the sobs died away; then she dried her eyes and camo slowly to to tho treo-whero they first were and they both sat down. "I'll tell you now why," she said in a low strained voice "My name as Marlam Price. Mrs. Marlam Price, lis ten dear." "Walt had partly risen. "I was married when I was seventeen. I ran away with Will Price and was mar ried against my parents' wishes. Will was always a good husband but as I grew older I found we didn't have much In common, but still wo wero happy. Ho worked in a bank as cashier, his brother was president. Ono month the accounts appeared short, tho blame and suspicion foil on Will. He knew where tho shortage was,, his brother had used tho money, but would not own up to it. Will was tried, con victed and sentenced to hvo years' im prisonment. Ho kept his brother's se cret and is Is serving his time. He has served four years of it All our money, -which wasnt much, Is gone, and I'm working hero to make a littlo start for us when he comes out, God knows we'll need it. I came hero bo- cause no one know me." She paused a moment, then went on. "And now, dear, you understand." Wait remained aildnt, gazing at the ground. "God known I love you, dearest, hotter than all. Hut Ho sees and knows I bclonj, to another and ho needs mo and I must bo true to him. Our love Is not for this life, possibly In the next world He will bring us together. But promise mo before before wo part, that you will lead a life such as you would if we were to be together. In your love for me swear that you will be true to all that is beat In you." "I swer," ho whispered hoarsl. "I, Marlam, Marlam." She rose to her feet steadily. "You must oaQ me here," nhe Bald softly He sat in sllenee like one stunned for a moment, then roBe slowly to his feet and passed bis hand across his eyes. "You'll leave town tonight, won't you?" HhV asked earnestly He nodded. "Then Goodbye! John " She held out her hands and he took them and covered them with kisses, and staited to draw her to him, but she bioke from him with o low moan. "No', No! 0. God' No1 Please I plcape go quickly " Then he turned and I. It hei, going slowl down the old wood road, under the tall, cool pines.
