"It was that there futch Aunt Rosy tol' him about It Did he was he to see your faltered the girl and the suspense in her voice was not as sumed. "So, but I bad this letter from him." He drew an envelope from his pocket aid banded It to her. Head It and see what mischief your fudge bas made all 'round, my dearl" It was a pathetic tittle note, Meely felt poor Mr. Bchwenckton anxiously endeavoring to protect his wayward child, yet equally anxious to avert dis sension with his powerful neighbor by casting on him any base, unfounded suspicion; pointing out to St Croix the impossibility of any safe or honor able relation between him and bis daughter, due to their (insurmount able differences In station, wealth and education. Somehow, the most pa thetic part of it to Meely was the poor man's struggles to write Intelligent English. "Whiles we have always been in comfortable circumstances, yet limited, but honest and honorable." "Our females in our family being ever Virtuous and very Chaste snd never disgraced us, though many tempta tions." Myely remembered, ss she found the words all spelled correctly, how as siduously the farmer had, one evening. to ber mystification, been consulting the dictionary and how he had asked ber to spell for him several long words. She was relieved to find that Nettle was referred to only as "My daugh ter," and not by name. "Poor PopI" she sighed as she re turned the letter to its envelope snd passed it back to St Croix, "he means so well by us children H 'So you see, Meely, you've got to be careful. .Ho more fudge I" "I never conceited It would give all this here trouble P she lamented, on the verge of tears. 8t Croix looked a shade less au stere. "Where d you get the splfly coat?" he asked. "Looks for the world like English tweed." "It's the teacher's. She left me bor row the loan of It oft of her." "Now, look here! Why can't you say simply that she lent It to you? Instead of all those superfluous words she let you borrow the loan of It oft of her I Ye gods I 'She lent It to me.' That says what you menn, doesn't tt? Five words instead'of a doxen I" "Acti, well I" pouted Meely, looking again as though she were on the verge of tears and then suddenly, to her consternation, she quite uncontrollably snickered crushing her hand against her mouth to keep from laughing hys terically. Fortunately for ber, he took It for a suppressed sob. "There, there, my dearl" he said half Impatiently, half remorsefully. "Never mind! You're past teaching anyhow I Look here, Meely, why haven't you ever mentioned that the teacher boards with youT You've talked of everyone else in the house hold." "Well, you see, I had afraid you might want to be gave an Interduc- tlon to her and she's so pretty, I bad Jealous." "She is a pretty little thing. Cut I wonder," he grinned, "what my broth er, Marvin, thinks or such a little Ignoramus teaching s district school! I didn't know they had such crude teachers as that In the schools !" "Cut she's swful good In geogra phy ! She can bind every state on the patch-work quilt!" " 'Quilt' I" "You know the ronp. And sums! You had ought to see her do sums oncet! My goodness I To be sure, she can't talk wery correct She gets ber w's and we's mixed terrible I Cut United States history ! Why, she knows even the footnotes, now mind I'm tellln' you !" While she talked, he watched ber wltb shining eyes, but It was her rav- lahlig self, not Nettle's proficiency In sums and footnotes, that caused the shilling. "I declare, Meely, In that cost you could pass for snythlng st all I You look positively like a swell! I'alrl iun, actuultyr lie laughed, little ia dfthU w jfua it sw fy j dreaming, of course, that the girl un derstood why he lunched; why he thought tt funny that Meely Schwenck ton should look "patrician, actually !" "And If 1 really was so pa high toned like I look In this here coat," she responded wistfully, "you could marry me then) Ain't, Mr. Crelgh ton?" "Marriage Isn't the happiest relathn between a man and woman, Meely there Is a freer, happier relation," he said Insinuatingly ingratiatingly. "Out since I ain't high-toned," she broke In, "why do you take sll this here worry and trouble to meet up with mer "You're always asking me that Meely I I've told you you kuow " "No, I don't If you think I'm com montoo common to marry then what Is It about me you like so good?" "Well, If you've got to have an an swer, I suppose, Meely," be said, re- "Well," She Said with a Long, Deep 8loh, "Me, I Ain't Got Nothln to Be Proud of-but My Ker'ktsrl" gardlng her sppralslngly, "It's that you're so absolutely feminine !" "'Feminine'? Well, but my good ness! what would you expectl" "It makes you, to most men, my dear, so Irresistible I I can't under stand how you've gone this long with out being married. Why haven't you married, Meely T "Ach, I ain't got no curiosity p lie winced. How blatuntly vulgar she could be! However, she hod given him his cue a wedge to break down barriers. He found himself surprised at bis own sense of reluctnnce to come te the point with her, to put his quest to the test; an undefined apprehension of disappointment though of course that was ridiculous surely she "loved" and desired blm, or why had she been risking so much to meet him here? Surely she was flattered st his desiring her! He suddenly snatched her to him wltb passionate kisses so fiercely that this time she was too helpless In his bard grip to avert his Hps end Into her ears be poured out words not In her vocabulary she could only guess their meaning; could only surmise that now at last be was telling her what all along she bad known that he took her for a "hussy I" and al though through all these weeks she had been expecting this climax, yet it came to her now with a shuddering shock. , In vein she struggled to free her self from his arms and bis appalling words. xxxxiiiiixxxixi'iii,xxxiixiexe Health for Female in Open-Air Exercise There seems to be no reason why a woman or girl should pot get as much enjoyment out of life as any man or boy. Too many of our sex cotiBldor themselves hothouse flowers. If the weather Is cold or stormy they will not venture outdoors. The sun must be ruining and the weather warm be fore they will spend any time outside. Whether It Is cold or warm, culm or stormy, every woman end girl should spend at least three hcurs dully In the open air. Not merely resting, but walking, washing or playing some game. Celng In the fresh air Is sll right In a way, but to get 100 per cent value out of the good air, one should exercise In It Even If the ex ercise consists only of deep breathing, this, st least exercises the lungs. I find that too many women neglect their breathing. They very seldom tuke s deep breath. It Is easy to get into the bablt of taking the deep "Let me go or I'll scream!" she managed to gasp at lust. lie was not too fur gone to know the danger of her throat their hill top, though Isolated, bring not too distant for a scream to be heard from the valley below. ranting, bnllled, he dropped his arms from about her, his face distort ed with a mingled resent incut mid nn anguish of hungry yearning, Hut he clutched her skirt lest she get up and run sway. She only moved, how ever, a few Inches from hi in on the log, her whole body trembling, her fnoe deathly white, "If you touch me, I'll scream I" shs gasped. He could not find breath to answer her. "Cnn we," she asked scarcely above a whisper, "talk this here thing out Mr. Crelghton?" "What's there to say T I want you! You surely want me I I'll amply re ward you" "You menn buy me?" "Of course not any more than you'll buy me. We want each other, Meely! I'll reward you for the risk you take reward you well" "Ho you mean you'll give me money J" "A pile of It that you can put away for your marriage" Meely started this was an anus lug world that was being revealed to her! She had not dreamed how fnr some men would go, how ruthless they could be, In degrading a girt. "For my marriage!" she breathed. Ach, Mr. Crelghton, I didn't know you thought that low-down ef me!" Cefore the look of utter dismay that had come Into her face, he actually felt to bis own bewilderment, a mo. mentnry embarrassment. Was she going to be sentimental and scrupu lous? That would make things much too difficult he had certainly not an ticipated having to wrestle with scruples ! "I don't think low-down' of you, Meely. We love each other" "Love? Cut I'd think. Mr. Crelgh ton, that If a man loved a girl he'd purtect her, not hurt her!" "Cut love never hurt anone, Meely I It enriches snd blesses because It gives ecstasy I Ecstasy, Meely P "Supposln' you had a sister would you go ahead and tell her te take such blessing and riches snd ecstasy as you're offerln' me? Would you?" He Ignored this ridiculous question. "Meely, love should be ss free snd natural to as as breathing this au tumn air I It's a glorious adven ture" "Rut If It's that 'a glorious sdven ture' why make It a sneakln', ngly bargain that you gotta hide and be ashamed of all your lifer "Ashamed? Look at those birds snd sll the other wild, free things! Are they sshamed? Then why should we be ashamed when we're only yield ing to our natures that God gave us" He found himself ressonlng with her just ss though he believed she were seriously putting up sll these objections ! "Yes, well, but the birds mate," she answered, "and live In a Best and hatch young ones. That's what love Is a home snd children, living snd working together snd brlnglug up children. Nothing else Is good enough for me, Mr. Crelghtou, thank you !" ' "Oh, Meely, you don't realize ! a free, spontaneous love like ours csn be so much more beautiful than the deadly dull, stale marriage relation!" "'Ceautlful't Sneakln' and bldln' for fear we'll be found out ! end goin' against the Nature you talk about I for It's goln' sgalnat Nature when yon darsen't have a child. And you rail that love I That ain't love. Mr. Crelghton. It's well, what would you call It? I don't know what you'd call It!" "If sll you see In love (s lovely young creature like you!) Is child bearing!" "Ilut that's what love's for, ain't It? If It's Nature you're plaguln' me to follow. And you offerln' me money yet for my marriage! As If even s common man would marry me If be knowed I was a loose woman I Even a workln' man, Mr. Crelghton, wants bis kids' mother to bs s good woman !" "Out there's no "right' or "wrong" In love, Meely love Is so divinely above those superstitions! Love Is" "I sln't thlnklnV she broke In, "ss much sbout whether It's right or wrong. It's whether It's good sense for a girl to give herself to a man that thinks she sln't good enosgh to marry him I What's It worth to s glrir (TO BS CONTINUED.) breathing; expanding the lungs to ths limit if only two or three time a day.
