Yes," She Said. tal survey of all the weather records of the last twenty years. Wright had almost forgotten what he had said when she at last gave the conversation football a dainty kick by saying: "Yes." This time he was ready for her. His embarrassment was wearing off and he began again promptly: "Don't the rains make the road pret ty bad out your way?" "My friends manage to get out to see me." This was a chill rejoinder, and Wright felt he had lost several points in their game of indirection. "Locust Lawn is quite a distance out," he ventured. "Not far endugh to discourage my friends." This goaded him to an apology. He regretted that she was not making it wasy for him, but he forgave her be- cause he knew she did not understand. "Becauséd've been so busy, please don't think that I'm discouraged." "Why should I think of it at all?" she replied with spirit. Her remark hirt him, both her words and her manner of speech. It tore away his reserve and made him burst forth in protest. "That's not like you, Gloria. We've been such good friends." "We have been good friends," she admitted promptly. "Is there any reason, Joe, why we should not be now?" His heart beat high within him at her words. They were so direct, so honest, so like the one woman of his dreams. It grieved him that he could ot be as direct with her; but that Was Impossible, for over them was the sinister shadow of David Kerr, her father, the boss of Belmont. "There's no reason why we shouldn't be good friends, Gloria. What put that idea into your head ™ "My circle of friends in Belmont seems to have grown smaller and smaller." "Please don't put me on the out- side." J "You seem to have put yourself there." The conversation lagged. Therewas 80 much to think about. Gloria was seeking to reconcile his explanations with her Owi, observations. Looking at him closely she saw that he did not bave that fresh, robust look which a month ago had made him seem fit for a gladiatorial contest. As he sat in the big office chair he seemed to relax with fatigue. His face was thin. ner, and thére Were Httle lines of Worry about his eyes. Between his brows énd on, either side his mouth | were to be seen creases which the girl thought proclaimed to the world his strength of character. A month ago she had not noticed them. ' She had feit he was such a man, but:the wrinkles, confirming her belief, could almost be called a source of joy to her. They had made away with some of the youthfulness, but in his. face she now saw semething which more than compensated. It had 'greater strength now, strength +such as was written on her father's countenance, "You look tired." Her low, sympa- thetic tones and her solicitous look did what riothing else could do. They melted his stern purpose to bear it all in silence for vet afew days into 8 desire to take her as much as he] dared into his confidence. With a woman's quick perception she would understand that he wasmnhappy. Her sympathy and her confidence in him would nerve him _to fight the good fight as nothing else could sand his heart was stirred by 'the possibflity."

What do you think "I'm all iu the dark, t00," was her confession. Slowly and surely in the shadow of her shattered hopes. and his unhappy 'conflict of duty and desire were they being drawn closer together than even they had been when they laughed with the spring and dreamed of the days to come in a radiant sun. sliine of unwhispered love. "1 don't know what to think." Gloria went on in a low tone. "I don't seem to understand Belmont." : "Why don't you go away? you want to?" "What for? 1 know the lite Ionut there." She mada a sweepiug ges- ture which seemed to encompass all the world outside the four walls which shut them in together. "It woulda't really satisfy me any more--io Ii o as 1 used to live," "Yet your life hiere--" rest to her, "No, this doesn't satisfy me either." "In a word, Glorid, you're not hap- py." Instead of replying directly, she asked with a dropping of her hands to her sides in a hopeless fashion: "Is anybody in the whole world happy? Are you happy? ww "Don't you think I am?" ' "I'm afraid not." 4 The appealing way she looked at him, her whole soul welling up in her eyes, brought him to his feet and set him to pacing nervously up and down. He looked fatigued, distressed, beside himself with care. She forgave him everything but his studied refusal to let her share whatever weighéd upon him. Could he not see, she thought, how she yearned to tell him that whither he went there she. would go algo; that his Joys would be all her joys and that his burdens .wotiid bs divided with her; that love divided all sorrow and doubled all joy? Wright could stand it no longer. He saw her before him, trembling with that same emotion that shook him, aflame' with the same fire that burned within him, mutely questioning him with her big, soulful eyes. How could he make amends for that month of neglect except by telling her what she long ago had guessed, but what more recently she had a right to doubt? He felt weak where he wanted to be strong. To hear from her lips that she loved him was all that he needed to make him invincible. With her ao knowledged love in his heart there was nothing he could not do. "Oh, Gloria, T can't tell you what a fight I'm making. You wouldn't un- derstand. Business is business, out- side a woman's realm, but I've missed you so much this last month." At this declaration she caught her breath. Joy, she found, could some- times prove the twin of pain. That this man, this strong, fearless man, In. his struggles had missed her, had intimated a longing for dependence upon her, made her heart bound. Love, even when his banners have been flung forth to the breeze leagues be- fore the castle wall is reached, never ceases to be a surprise when at last the knock at the gate is heard. "You've no right to say your work Is outside of woman's realm if you've --if you've missed something a woman could supply." . "Something the one woman could supply," he corrected. "I muet be going," she suid, rising from her chair; "I'm afraid Mrs. Hayes isn't coming." He stepped between her and the door, letting her take severs] steps forward, because they brought her closer to him, before he said: "No, Gloria, you must hear mie:" I didn't mean to speak now, of ali times, but it 'had to be sowe day, and per- haps it is al} for the best now." The woman leaned her hand upon the table for support, turning hait away from him. "Don't Joe, please don't," ake mured. "I must go." 3 "No, no, I must tell you. You've asked me if you could help me. I want you to help me; you can help me always. I loge you. I want you lo be my wife. 1 have ed you, oh, so long; and, most of , I've felt' that you have needed me.

They were like lead about his heart, and cautioned him that he must get her away from Belmont as quickly as possible. Words of love must be post poned, new-found bliss be treated as commonplace, until he had finished his hard task of persuading her to go away. "You've made me supremely- happy, Gloria. 1 want you to believe in me and trust me--always." She smiled up at him her love and confidence as she answered, "1 do, I do." } "I want you to be happy, and I know you're not happy in Belmont. You must go away at once. I'll follow you." "But why?" she questioned. The smile was still there, peeped forth from her eyes. happy now." § Wright laughed at her with that de- lightfully patronizing air of possession that lovers assume, caught her in his arms once more and kissed her. "I know, dear, but you'll be happier. I can't explain. You wouldn't under stand. Can't you trust me?" "Ye-es, but father would--" "He won't oppose your going, I know he won't." At thought of David Kerr and the- flerce fight they were waging Wright became insistent. "Do this for me, Gloria. You can get a late train for St. Louis tonight. I'll have Mrs. Gilbert go with you. Next week Fl join you, and we'll make plans for the wedding." "But, Joe, that's so foolish," she complained. "I like Belmont im- mensely now." Then she struck a more serious note. "Besides, it wouldn't be fair to father. He's put me through, and I'm not going to dis appoint him. To go away--well, I feel it would be disloyal." "You can write him we're engaged," he pleaded. "Then I'll go to see him." Gloria could not alfogether under stand his insistence. Then, too, to send her away just 'after they had found each Other was something she could not 'explain to her father. Further discussion was put out of the question by the appearance of Judge Gilbert, "Would you object- to waiting for Mre. Hayes in this office?" he asked, pointing to the room next to that in which the men had beem conferring. He smiled as he added, "Mr. Wright came on business, you ww. "I think he transacted Judge Gilbert," she could not help replying. Then she asked Wright with a smile, "You won't be long?" He walked with her to the door, to Gilbert's surprise, crossed the thresh- old and weit into the little office. Somehow or other--such things are al- ways mysteries, certainly they are ac- cidents--the door seemed to close of its own accord. "Wait for me a little while," he said, taking both her hands in his, "It's go- ing to be such a glorious world for us. I never knew what happiness fneant till now. To be wherever you were has always made life sweet, but now everything takes on a new meaning transmuted by the glory of being loved by you." "I'm (To be continued. Cost of the Canal.
