The other passengers were growing nervous with their own troubles. The next stop was Reno, and In spite of “Oh, we ought to make ’Frisco by midnight. anyway." “Midnight, and sail at daylight!" “Unless we lose a little more time." Mallory realized that every new day managed to create its own anxieties. With the regularity of a mllkman. each morning left afresh crisis on his doorstep. Mallory was transfixed with a new tear: “Jocd Lord, my transport sails at sunrise.” The coniluctor answered even more offhandedly: “About two hours lateâ€"â€" and loeln’." ' Mallory acknowle'dged thev greeting. and asked offhandedly: “By the W8}. how’s she _running?” Also he felt, now that he and Mar. 10:19 had lived thus long, they could morning optlmlsm, though he made his appearance in the washroom wlth ge_n_lal good mornings for all. Mallory then negotiated the loan or one more fresh shirt from the Eng- lishman, and a clean collar from Ash- ton. He rejoiced that the end of the day would bring him in touch with his own baggage. Four days of forag- ing on the country was enough for this soldier. Mallory put out his hand: “Would you be kind enough to lend me your razor again this morning?" “Sure thing," said Ashton. “You'll find your made in the box there." “Cut everything but hair," said Ash- ton, pointing to his wounded chin. say, old party, are those safety razors safe? Can't you really out yourself?" “So do Iâ€"wo’ll go," said Anne. “We’ll stay." “No, I insist on the dining-car." “0h, all right, have your own way," said Ira, as if he were being bullied, and liked it. Anne smiled at the con-i trariness of men, and Ira smiled at the contrariness of women, and when they reached the vestibule they kissed each other in mutual forgiveness. As Wedgewood stropped an old-fash- loned razor, he said to Ashton. who was putting up his safety equipment: f And now Mrs. Anne Lathrop, after ‘ much hesitation, called timidiy, “Por- i terâ€"porterâ€"pieaee!" ‘ “Yeaâ€"missâ€"missus!" be amended. ' “Will you call my-” she guipedâ€" ;' “my husband ?"

"All right, Ira," said Anne, glad to be meek; “come along," and she rose. Ira hesitated. “Still, if you'd rathi er, we’ll eat here.” He sat down. “But it’ll get all cold, and I’m hun- gry,” pouted the old bachelor, to whom brea‘x'as‘t was a sacred lnstl- tutlon. Ira appeared at number one, and bending over his treasure-trove, spoke In a voice that was pure saccharine: “Are you ready for breakfast, dear?" “Yes, Ira." “Come along to the diningocar.” “It’s cosier here,” shesald. “Couldn’t we have it served here?” And then Mrs. Whltcomb pushed them both aside: "Pardon me. want You? i’m getting off at Reno." "So am i," gasped Mrs. Welling:- ton, rushing forward, only to be faced by the slam of the door and the cllca; oi the key. She whirled uses to no mand of Marjorie: “Did you ever hear of such impudence?" : "I never did.” “I'll never be ready for Reno," Mrs. Wellington walled, “and I haven't hat; my breakfast." “You'd better order it in advance,’ , said Marjorie. “it takes that chei’ an ’ hour to boil an egg three minutes." ' “I will, if i can ever get my face f washed," sighed Mrs. Wellington. "Well,” said Ira, in self-defense, “1 don’t hear anybody sending for 'you.” Wedgewood grinned at Ashton. “1 rather fancy he had you mean, old top, eh, what?” Ashton slapped him on the back 3nd roared: “Oh, you married man!" “Oh, I mast." said Marjorie. “I couldn't. think of it," persisted Mrs, Wellington. “I won't allow you ’ Meanwhife Marjorie was pushing Mrs. “'eHi?"',’.0n ahead: “You go 2:: first, Mrs. Wellington." “You go first. l have no husband waiting tor me," said Mrs. Welling- ton. one. mere we porter was run nmsu- ing his res-caring tasks, and laying aside with some dimdence two gar-- manta whicn Anne hastily stuffed into her own v ire.

Wellington was his ilrst victim here. His pushing manner, the almost vulture-like rapacity of his gleaming eyes, and the very vul- turine contour of his proiile, his palmy gestures, his thick lisp, and every- thing about him gave Wellington his lmmediate pedigree. He liked this so well that he wished he had thought of it in time to crack zit over Ashton'a head. He decided to hand it to him anway. lie forgot that the cardinal rule for repartee, it "‘Better never than late." As he swung out of the men's room he was buttonholed by an individual new to the little TranrAmerican col- ony.

Or, as Ashton impudently observed: "You ought to enjoy your residence there, Wellington, with your wife on hard." 9" The conductor, somewhat cynical from close association with the di- vorce-mill and its grist, grinned: “That depends on what you’re leav- ing behind.

Ah, I see you vant to marry a nice divorcee lady in R-r-reno?" “Reâ€"marriage?â€"huh!" he looked round, and, seeing that no one else was near: “I haven't taken the first step yet." “Ain’t I got a few vit me?

"Why shouldn’t you?” said Mr. Bau- mann. “Don‘t all sorts of things got to have a license In Nevada, saloons, husbands, dogs-" Mallory put out his hand in wel- come: then a new anxiety chilled him.
