"Iff worth a moment of the keen
est happiness mortuls can knowt VI
vine happiness! Isn't that enough T"
" 'Divine' t I thought that there
word meant somcpln else I thought
It belonged to Jesus"
"A divine moment, Meely, such as
few ever know In the stereotyped
marriage relation, my girl, believe
me!"
"It alnt that I expec" yon to marry
me, Mr. Crelghton I know I enn't rise
to that But If I can't rise to that,
I can't fall to nothln' else between
you and me, neither!"
The earnestness of her resistance
was beginning to alarm him. Surety
she did not menn all she was saying 1
Bhe only wanted to be coaxed, per
suaded. Surely It only needod a little
patience on his part to bring her to
the yielding point! But patience was
thing be was so unused to exercis
ing that It taxed his nerves and his
temper almost more than he could
bear. The little hussy must be very
experienced, she knew so well how to
enhance her own value and stimulate
his desire by her stand-offishness 1
"Think, Meely, how stupid It Is not
to seize every chance that comes our
way (few enough they are!) for hap
piness ! Look at all the colorless years
ahead of you, and don't miss this one
Ineffable hour! such as will never
be offered you once you're married!"
"Will your marriage hold you from
any more such hours T
"That's neither here nor there my
marriage, Meely, Is quite another af
fair" "Meanln' It alnt none of my affairs?
Well, but it's the affair of your wire,
anyhow, whether you have any such
grand hours "
"My dear, we wont discuss my pos
sible wife!"
"I'd feel awful sorry," said Meely,
lowly shaking her head, "for your
wife. Mr. Crelghton."
He laughed uneasily. "Judging by
the way I'm pursued by marriageable
girls. Meely, your view of me as a
husband can't possibly be the one gen
erally held by many ladles of high
degree! Yon don't know your luck,
my glrir
"Yes. well but them ladles of high
degree" run after yon to marry you.
Yon ain't astln' me to marry you."
"I'm offering yon love such as I
shall probably never feel for the girt
I marry 1 Oh, Meely !" He reached
for her hand, but she drew It away.
"Meely I You'll lose me, you know.
If you keep this npt You can't keep
me dangling forever, you know !" The
words, "keep me dangling," startled
his own ears, so ridiculous was the
Idea of a girl such as Meely keeping
him "dangling"! "If you do lose me,
you'll only have yourself to thank!"
"What would I be losln' In losln'
your she asked as one humbly seek
ing Information.
"Yon'd be losing happiness, wouldn't
yon, my desrT"
"Happiness! Would I keep happi
ness and you by doing what yon
want? It's put out that you're going
to marry your cousin a grand lady
with such a title or what After you've
got her, where would I come In?"
Ah, thought St. Croix, light dawn
ing on his troubled mind, so It was
that that was holding her bark! she
had beard of bis betrothal and was
jealous 1
"I give yon my word, Meely, that
I am not as yet engaged."
"I heard you was," she repeated
stubbornly. "What would that cousin
think of you If she knowed about
mer
"That need not worry you!"
Oh, needn't It !"
Why should ItT I have not seen
this cousin since we were both chil
drenand I am not definitely be
trothed to her."
"But you're plannln' to be."
Well, surely, my dear girl, It will
hurt you far less If I marry some one
I don't love some one I don't really
know person I've not seen since--!
he was a homely little bow-legged
kid!"
" "Bow-legged' V exclaimed Meely
Indignantly.
"Yei, and pigeon-toed and towhead
ed and freckle-faced! You'll not be
bait by my marriage," he exclaimed
fervently, "you beautiful thing!"
"Yes, well, but how about hurtln'
berl When you even love another
one!"
"She'll be doing the same thing,
probably I" he defended himself. "It's
purely family arrangement," he an
swered, frowning Impatiently at being
forced Into discussion of his per
sonal affairs; to his peculiar Ideas of
fitness It was S desecration to even
so much as name hi cousin his fu
ture wife, no doubt to girl like
Meely Schwenckton.
"Are you so sure she'll he wlllln'
to marry you without lovln' you and
without your lovln' her?" Meely asked
wonderingly.
Nothing could have been more dls-
in
fV'KTOl I AAA j
Helen R .-Martin
tasteful to him than answering such
question; dwelling at such length
on this unseemly topic. But If to win
her over he must pay that price, then
pay It he would.
"Look here, Meely, perhaps I owe It
to you to explain the situation to you.
Lady Sylvia St. Croix will marry me
because her family needs money
their estate, since the wsr, Is gone to
punk and my father will restore It
and supply the Income to keep it up.
I will marry her because I shall enjoy
the prestige In England which the
marriage will give to me and my chil
dren. So you see how entirety out
side of my marriage will be my re
lation with you how little It can af
fect It"
"Well!" Meely severely pronounced
Judgment "I may not be such high
aristocrat but I'd be above such
low-down wicked marriage like that I
There's better things to marry for and
live for than savin' au old estate!"
"Oh, come, my dear, you've no least
cause for Jealousy of my cousin, I"
Meely sprang up to elude his move
ment to seize her again In bis arms.
Before He Could Ley a Finger on Hsr
to Stop Her, She Had Turned and
Fled.
"It's time I got home Pop will be
missin" me."
He sprang np too bis face almost
purple with the strain of his self
restraint but the look In her eyes
halted him. One step toward her, her
eyes said to him, and she would
shriek to arouse the countryside.
"Meely," he exclaimed huskily,
"what do you mean? Why, If you
don't lore me, have you led me on
all these weeks? Why have you come
here to meet me? Why? Tell me
that whyr
"To find out," she answered In an
even tone, "what sort of a man you
are. And," she added with smile
that pitied him, "I have found out V
Before he could lay s ringer on her
to stop her, she had turned and fled.
By the time he bad recovered from
the bewildering shock of her words,
her tone, she was fur down the hill
too fur for him to overtake her even If
he hnd not realized, to his stunned
amazement, the absolute uselessness
of overtaking her.
That he had been repudiated by this
girl who for nearly three months had
let lil in treat her contemptuously, had
submitted to his bullying, bis rude
ness, his Irrltublllty, had accepted and
returned his lavish caresses! All the
way down the bill and along the high
way toward the spot near the school
house, where todny he had parked his
car, he stared Incredulously at the
amazing fact
But a scene that met his bewildered

Brother of Tecumseh Neglected by History
Elkswntawa, younger brother of
Tecumseh, was largely responsible for
the part that great Indian warrior
and statesman played In organizing
federation of the red men to op
pose the encroachments of the whites.
In 1803 Rlkswatawa proclaimed him
self t religious leader sod began to
arouse the tribes of Indiana, Ohio and
Illinois, to the great disturbance of
the settlers. His doctrines were not
primarily revolutionary, but temper
ance and total abstinence were tenets,
together with reverence for old age
snd sympathy for the Infirm. He slso
urged his people to resist Intermar
riage snd to preserve their own cue
loins and costumes. This being In
line with whut alt Indians bad held us
gate when he was about to got Ints
his car, parked near the schoolliouso,
did not decrease his mental conruslon,
nor serve to soothe his rasped nerves
and outraged vanity,
Marvin Crelghton, approaching Wll
Ham I'enn school house at half-past
five that afternoon, on his way to his
temporary home at Absalom I'unts'
cottage, noticed on the road far ahead
of him slim girlish figure in a long
looso cont, hurrying nlong the high
way. Though the daylight was fading,
her carriage of herself and tho set of
her clothing were so conspicuously dif
ferent from that of any country girl
one was apt to meet alone on the road
at this hour that even In this dimness
that hurrying figure was sharply Im
pressive. Curiosity made him quicken his
pace to catch up with her. Hut be
fore be had overtaken her, she hud
arrived at William I'enn schoolhouao,
where, to his surprlso, she stopped
and weut In.
Then It was, as he had half suspect
ed, half hoped, a little dreaded, Miss
Schwenckton I
A few yards bofore he renched the
school he came upon a roadster,
parked along the road, which he ree
ognlied as his brother's. The Ides
stubbed him that this attractive young
teacher and St. Croix might be having
a rendezvous In the school I Was St
Croix In there with her now? He was
such philanderer sometimes sq un
scrupulousthe girt ought to be put
on her guard.
"But darned If I want to be the one
to warn hert And If ever a girl
seemed capable of looking out for her
self, she's It!"
In minute he was at the school
house door. It was slightly ajar; he
pushed It open bit wider and, not
entering, glnnced In. The sight that
met his eye made him draw back pre
cipitately Miss Schwenckton, her
back toward the door, was standing
on her platform disrobing I Rhe had
already taken off her coat and frock,
her white shoulders bared
There was no one else In the school
room, yet
Marvin stumbled bark pace from
the door. But though the thought
that pierced III in made htm call him
self "a cad." yt as he stood there
wondering whether he should knock,
he felt cold all over; and even while
be hesitated, In what seemed to hlra
an Incredibly short time, she suddenly
appeared before him In the doorway
clad In Jacket suit and Jaunty
sports hat! He was so tsken sbsck,
so utterly confused, that he could not
move or sjenk, but stood as stock
still as the wooden posts of the school
porch.
At sight of man standing motion
less at her door In the gathering
gloom, she cried out In alarm which
brought him to himself.
"LHm't be frightened I It's only
your superintendent !
She gave little gasp of relief.
"Only ! And of whom, pray, should I
be more frightened? though the
Schoolroom being empty Just now, of
course you can't bully me Into teach
ing geography for your entertainment
my good lurk!"
"doing home now?"
Yes."
"Then" he took from her hand the
big door-key and the books she had
In ber arms "may I walk wtih your
When he had locked the school door,
he glanced up the road to the waiting
car. Its lights had been turned on.
Illuminating the road over wide
area, and he saw that his brother,
standing In front of bis car, was wit
nessing his coming out of tha school
house with Miss 8chwencktoo, She,
he observed, was viewing with frank
surprise the lighted car and Its owner
a few rods away. That look of sur
prise seemed so genuine. It was bard
to believe that bis own unexpected
arrival at the school had foiled
meeting between these two. And yet
It would be so like St Croix to Seek
S furtive love affair with charming
girl Ilka Miss Schwenckton when he'd
die before be would openly associate
with anyone of class outside his
own ! like a parvenu uncertain of bis
position, rather than like man born
to secure place In the snnl But
that girl of Miss Schwenckton's
spirit should sccept such cowardly at
tentions seemed Incredible. And this
mystery of her chnnglng her clothing
In the schoolroom I
As they turned their bscks on the
car and went on their way, neither
of them referred to It though Meely
was so absorbed In wondering whether
St Croix had recognized her that her
sense of Marvin's Interesting compan
ionship was less keen than It would
otherwise hare been.
"Does your work always detain you
so late as this st your school r be
ssked with subtle guile, She didn't
know he had seen her coming alonf
ths highway!
(TO BM CONTINUED.)
Ideal previous to Caucasian Invasion,
his preaching caused much excitement
among the tribes and fear among the
wlilles. It was the response of the
Indians to his brother's pleading that
started Tecumseh on his mission In
the cause of federation which took
him to the Cherokees snd the other
more civilized tribes jf the 8outh, la
the course of which be covered msny
thousand miles.

the work chosen, and In order to avoid

made In the middle of the week. It
was found that the output steadily In
