Could he have a tele | graph blank, please? Cherry did no | glance up at all, just passed one tr him coldly. He spent half an hou writing his message, took a long drinl from the water tooler and handed gf: telegram to her to court up. "Send it off any time it's handy," he remarked, trying to be nonchalant glso. Cherry ran her pencil over it. - Height six foot ens neh; weight 140. If satisfactory will wire fare, Waneonta, WALTER EK RAMSDELL. "Night message?' asked Cherry | pleasantly, as she drew her perci through "Dear Madam." Walt resented her air of aloofness and lackjof curiosity. He hduled out & pigskin wallet and extracted a yel low bill. * "Send it row and get it there this afternoon. I don't care What it costs. Any corrections to suggest?" Cherry's blue eyes looked over slowly, In one Sweeping summary of suitor, and shook- her head aggravat: ingly, with a certain little curl to her short upper.Mp. Some months previ ously she had been courted assidu- ously by Mr. Ramsdell, and being the only attractive and desirablé girl in a radius of forty miles she had failed to take his offer pt its proper valuation. | Wait waited{grimly until she had dis- patched the message, thon rode away with a new aggressive tilt to his hat and a sinking feeling In his heart at the desperate step he had taken. In the days of waiting for his an- swer he haunted the telegraph office. Cherry was likewise postmistress, and Bill warned him of his danger. "It's just as dangerous hanging around some female you've been once attached"to as it is getting measles the second time. I wouldn't put it past Cherry a bit to try and get ahead of the eastern widow and think she's do ing something mighty smart" But Cherry held serenely to her own ¢ourse of action. Instead of being scornful she became sympathetic and rather remorseful. When she found Walt poring painfully over a mail- order catalogue that guaranteed to furnish a honeymoon equipment at so much per room she aided him instead of laughing. Walt found himself de ferring to her taste in snowflake cur- tains and golden oak sideboards. It was Cherry who suggésted cutting ont the phonograph dnd putting in a studie willow set instead, and a low book- case. Walt had hesitated over a red Yelvet set. ""It isn't becoming to blondes," she sald thoughtfully. Wall's gaze traveled to Cherry's brown, short curls and wide, brown eyes, alert as a squirrel's;'and for one Instant' he thought of how. she would look surrounded by the studio willow 'set. He leaned over the little wooden barrier between them eagerly, forget- ful of windows. NT, "It's awfully good of you to tend to all this stuff for me, Cherry. I'd never thought of that fireless cooker or the washing machine or that line of things, You know there wasn't any real reason why we didn't--well-- didn't get married ourselves, only you seemed unwilling." 5 Cherry's bowed head gave no sign of attention; she was getting the sige) bal for the Incoming train on the emst' ern track, 4 + "Cherry, girl"--Walt felt all cantion leave him suddenly. "I ain't any hand at delivering speeches, but I ean't stand it, seeing you here day after day. You're just the only girl In the world for me" Cherry swung past him with the mall pouch over her sholuder, laughing poftly, her eyes filled With mischief. After the express had passed on, and be carried in the new pouch, he belped her while she sorted the mail, hum- ming to herself, not a love but And suddenly she paused, halding in her Hand. a letter addressed to M / Walter K.
