But it will blow over--hell forget it. Why don't you begin to talk to them now, so hat everything will become naturel egain? Sven is walting to hear from you, too, Judith." A flush came to Jude's cheeks, and Lind thought she saw 'tears in her eyes as she turned her head away. "Jt won't do any good," Judith muttered. "If 1 see Sven he'll find out and then he'll send me to the city. I know--nothing good ever happens." ; "Judie, your own life matters more than anything else. If you stay herer much longer you'll get to be lke Bilen, mand you/re too mplen- aid to waste yourse like that What 4 he does send you to--ito the city? The judge would find out all about how he has been treating you before they would do anything to you. People aren't all like him, you know. Bverything would be better fn the end, Judie, I'm sure." Judith wat back dn her chair and looked at her. "You might just tell Sven not to worry about me, if you see him," she sald. "He can't keep me here forever, anyway." Lind wes gad to find some Te- haps to-morrow, Jude. I'm sure he's thinking about you all the time," she said cheerfully, putting her arm about Judith's shoulder. "Do you know what I'm going to do now? I'm to make you something pretty. Something you can 'wear without anyone else seeing it. You just wait," Lind went into the other room, smiling back at Jude, who half smiled in return. Amelia came in then and Judith stood up and looked into the churn at the butter. "111 have to be getting some new orocks from Jobhanneson," eaid Amelia, "He has two of our old ones down there," Judith remarked. Amelia looked at her quickly. It was the first voluntary word she had uttered for days. There was a change in her. She wondered what would happen when Judith came fully to herself again, But the girl kept within herself for the rest of that day and went 40 bed immediate- 1y after supper, eo that Amelia had no way of knowing what was form- ing in her mind. Amela herself would give her no reason to think that her mad act would bring ther ultimate freedom. She had not spoken 'to Judith of the thing that had happened, thinking in this way fo impress upon her the. appailing of it. Aspect That night Judith lay awake. The, "111 see him, per- | the that the authorities of peace and justice would perhaps not be eo hareh as she had fesred, if Caled brought the thing to their notice, occupied her mind and crowded out sleep. And yet, she could not be sure. She knew so iittle of such matters. Per- haps the Teacher was mistaken. A Jhalfbreed girl from Yellow Post two or three years before had tried to kill her baby, and she had been sent to prison for §t. Prison--a place where you were confined to a tiny cell and never eaw the eky, or felt the wind on your face--a wretched place, worse perhaps, than this farm. Caled would manage to send her thers if he found any other reason to be dissatisfied with her. He bad a special hatred for her, she knew f#--had always known it. It 'was be- cause she hated the things that were God to him--the crops, the raising of animals, the rough produce of the land. She thought of Sven. When the opportunity came, whe knew he would take her away. She knew he wes waiting day and night for the moment to come, that he would at once defy Caled if any good would coms of 3. But Caleb held the whip just mow. They would get nd farther than the Siding before he would be upon them--- would notify police. For the first time in her fe, Judith felt a need of Sven that aid not spring from passion. She no Jonger saw the powerful muscles of his throat, or the taut, narrow shape of his loins, What she' did see was 8 certain wistfulness In his eyes, thet had come there through her scorn of him. Lying {no the darkness beside Killen, she felt a great need just to eit near him and not say any- thing for a Jong time. She Yegan to ory and covered her face with her pillow so thet Ellen shoild not hear her. La After school the next day Lind walked home with the Sandbo chil- dren to convey Jude's message to Sven. At the side of the road the milk-weed stalks hung with heavy purple bloom, and dendelons etood s foot and a half high, fluffing thelr down in thé wind. It was a year of lavish growth for Oeland. The chil- dren had found. more varieties. of birds end butterflies than ever be- fore. The leaves of the trees were free from insects. Lind thought how the plan of nature for » perfect year had been carried out Detween her and Mark Jordan. She wished that this harmony could have extended to the Gares, and thought sadly of "NOU demanded | a better Com Flake Make Your Own SOAP and Save Money!

J afternoons while she was still at the school house, or they had walked to- gether into the timber and had sat beside the little pool that Lind had found long before. They began to make plans for the fall, when they would leave together for the "'out- side." The winters at Oseland were too bitter to keep school open when the children had so far to go. "I'd rather like to spend a winter here," Mark had said once. "Parti- cularly at the Gares'. What a chance to study human nature that 'would be." "I'm afraid I'd emerge from it un- able to study anything for the rest of my life," Lind had replied. "It's heart breaking enough under favor- able weather conditions." Sven was watering the horses when the Teacher and the children arrived. He came forward eagerly to meet her. "Judith send any word?" he esk- ed when the children were out of hearing. Lind put her hand on his arm and walked with him back to the water trough. "She's beginning to forget, Sven, and she wants you pot to worry. He doesn't Jet her out of the house yet, but as soon as he does she'll try to | [i see you. Perhaps you'd better try to be patient until after the hay is f stacked. He'll have to let her out || on the binder, and he won't be able |} to watch Qer all the time.' Sven scowled. "Damn him! I'd like to wring the old devil's neck," he sadd. "But he'd live to bave me jail- ed for it." "That's 4¢he trouble, Sven. He'd make & terrible fuss if you went || away just now. Perhaps after the harvest he might de able to get over it. But Judith is as anxfous to see you a8 you are to see her." Mre, Sandbo came out of the house then, shooing the flies away from the door as she opened it. Sven went to the pasture with the horses. "Vell, and how goes it vit' Gare apd the haying?" she asked. "Fine as oan be," Lind smiled. She || had mot told Mrs. Sandbo of the affalr between Caled and Judith. Lind had told Mre. Sando that she and mark were planning to be |} married at the end of the school term. Mes. Sandbo bore the infor- || mation without too great a show of surprise. She had been expecting it | | all along. "Tink tvice and jump vonce," she had warned Limd, re- minding her of the disastrous mar- riage of her daughter Dora. But the confidence had pleased Mrs, Sand- Po's vanity, and she now 14nd with a motherly solioitude. Mark came a little later and Mrs. Sandbo would mot be denied the right to make coffee for them. After they were seated at the table she ostenatiously slipped out and left over in his mind every possibility of dving without her on the field. But that would mean biring two men, no matter how he considered it, and the remainder of the hay wasn't worth it. x . "You could o watched where you stepped--always something--always something," Caleb complained soft- ly, going to and fro from the kitch- en to the sitting room wheres Amefla was bandeging Martin's shoulder eo that he counld go to the doctor st the Siding. There was no doctor at YeMow Post. Martin made no reply. He knew why be had fallen from the stack, It was $0 catch Ellen, who was just about So step backward off the bay. Elen might as well leave her eyes at. home as try to use them on the field. Caleb drove Martin 'himself to Nykerk. He would see to it that the doctor charged a fitting fee. A dis- tocated shoulder was, adter aij, not a broken one. It was @ puisance--a nuisance. Now the haying would be held up anotlier day while they saw the doctor, since he could not jet Jude off the farmstead into the field without proper surveillance. The weather was getting sultry again, There would be rain per- haps before they got it all stacked, if Martin did not get around quickly. So Caleb fretted to himself, all the way to the Siding. He did not speak to Martin. The boy had a feel- ing of having committed an offense, a feeling more keen than the hurt in his shoulder. ' (To Be Continued).
