Virginia marries a poor man, and Kathleen Irctiks her engagement becauso Dill Lyons has no money. She continually uminds Virginia of her foolishness in coing through with the mariiagc when Jimmy has no money cither and Vlr ninia has lather a hard time, Jimmy is taken ill and dies before the baby is lorn. Afterward she decides to work for herself and the baby rather than 1o accept the offer of a homo from. Jimmy's family. Her one talent is ncling, which she has shown at school, nd she obtains a chance to play a small putt in one, of the season's uloiii. JliU Tjuont hai been left a eqacu and is doing well, so ncll that Kathleen, who is in IVeio Toifc study ing designing, decide that it would bo a, good idea to yet him back. Jle has lefricndcd Viiginia out of his regard for his dead filcnd, and the ihier arc thrown more or less together, Kath lien has told Virginia that already the old engagement has been renewed. flie question is, docs Hill Lyons still erne for Kathlcent Will he go back to Ins first lovef VIKGIN'IA fo'ight sby ot Bill all dur ing the next uceU. Hho wan trying to analyze her own fceliugs.to under stand why it was that she had felt so liirt and grieved that evening he had telephoned, to her and had not come for her as he had said. She remembered the afternoon that telegram had come with mws ot the baby's illness. The flame that had suddenly leaped up between them and had been as suddenly citin tuWied. the urge she had felt in her own veins and the light in Bill's eyes. TVhstdtcI alljhis mean?"What was hap jienins to her? She had never felt this Trny ceiorej sue uuu jibvcl iuuhcu ut Jimmy's touch of her. The roraanco that Virginia had vtoven about love had been shattered ay soou as she had been brought up against reality and Jimmy'3 leal nature. Sho had been too much of a child to know her ovn mind, but u certain passionate sincerity in her m turc had presented her admitting this fact ccn to herself. She had wanted toknc Jimmy, more than anything else in the world she had wanted that, but his refusal to understand her nature had frozen that hide of Virginia. Al though fhe cared for him because he was her husband, because she had mar ried him, his lack of consideration had jwented that deeper feeling from ever developing. In a week's time Barbara ttns well noujh to travel, and Virginia went dtrau on Sunday morning and brought the babv back to town in the afternoon. She left the Andersons liking them bet ter than she eer had. She had insisted 'upon a visit in the near future, li was one thing to have them come to tee her when she might have her own wav about how things were managed, fthen she was at the head of her menage, no nntter how small, and quite another to have Jimmy's mother attempt to run nery thing -herself. Virginia's inde pendence hnd brought her closer to her Mother-in-law' in small wajs than cither of them would have believed possible. Virginia looked absurdly small and impracticable to be the mother of a haby. &he liad'brd"nKhtrEmma down with her to help with the trip to the citj, and Emma sat iu honest-hearted ccstacy with smn'l brown Bnrbara in her 'nrms all the wav up to town. Emma from the beginning was the babv's ehve and it was astounding to tee how quickly Barbara fitted into the tcheme of things. And yet Virginia be gan to find that tho extra charge of tlio iabv was very taking. She had to sleep late in tho morning in order to get the pioner amount of rest, and now she nas ahas in tho deepest sleep, when he hail to get out of tied to care for Bartnrn. Emma was anxious nnd eager to do everything, but Emma had the care of the apartment nnd the meals. It was all right to expect her to stay with the babv when it was necessary for Vir ginia to bo at the theatre, but Virginia wanted to do things for Barbara her felf. Sho loved to put the baby in the tinv tub to watch her splash and kick and then to dash tho talcum powder over tho smooth little bodv in generous thakes It was fascinating to slip the fat armt into the tiny woolen shirts, to put on the stockings and wee bootees and then to chooso the crisp little dress from the chest where the baby's things were kept scented with lavender. The trouble lay in the fact that Virginia was trying to hold down two iobs. She was an actress, a woman whose profession Is perhaps more delicately poised than any other. Her slight part took a great dal out of her, and although she made. 8 fairly good salary it was not over abundant. The apartment, in a good neighborhood, cost a great deal, and there were Emma's wages and the food, and her own wardrobe had to be kept in good condition. No, the $60 a week was not any too much, nnd worrying about burning the candle nt both ends b'gan to tell upon Virginia. Sho used up moro nervous energy than she gen- rated, nnd she began to look pale and dragged out. Her eyes weie dark ringed 3Dd the started at every sudden noise. Tomorrow: Miat is friendship?

Btcvo had stopped drink ing after tho birth of their baby, but now that little Stevo has died, ho has started in again. CHAPTER III TN ANNIE KINEADY'8' kitchen a lamp burning against a tin reflector and through n brilliantly cloan chimney threw n yel low paten out into the pud died stflc -yard. Annie K 1 n c a d y drew that shade nnd placed n thick plate of thickly cut bicad in the center of tho spread table.

Tho smell of coffeo cumc through finally, and tlio sound of seething, nnd with her bril liant head Hung hack against Ntho rise of steam, she pushed tho overboiling pot to the rear of the stove, raised tho stove-lid and poked at the live coals, their red flowing nil oer her. Then sho sat down iu the low rocker between the rungs and the ipdoor cistern, but not back against it; erect Instead, with her cars stiainiug through the steady bound of rain aud her hands, wheic they closed oer tho chair, white ut the finger-nails. At 7 o'clock, aud in some uncettainty, Steven Kineady turned in ut his gate; came his footsteps aiouud to the side entiance, placed at uneven intervals, and the found of mud sucking as tho shoes withdrew. "Within her chair and in a silence that seemed to shape itself for some thing shameful, Annie Kineady, sut as if the rivers of her blood had ceased to flow. Yet when Steven Kiucady finally flung open the door, letting in a tine gust of wind and rain, he was smiling and rubbing his great rough hands to gether and shakiug tho spray from his six feet of great bulk. Tiny drops lay glistening ou his Eand-colorcd mus tache and the shiny visor of his cap. At tho sink ho even paused to remove his oilskin jacket, methodically ana outr-of his habit folding it, removing Iiis high, mud-caked boots und padding toward her in t.ocks of her own knit-tins. "Now, now, Annie, get up Hue n zood cirl. You think. I'm a littlo late and I ain't all right, don't jouV You think" Quit " sho snid, springing back from his impending kiss. "Quit!" He sat down immediately, noiaing out his hands toward the range. His blue eyes, edged in long lashes which cilHcd like a child's, wero murky in the pupils nnd the- whites or tucm were inflamed with little threads of blood running through. "IJr-r-r-r! Cold !" he said, hunching his great shoulders and rubbiug his palms mpidly to generate warmth be tween them. "Cold!" Sho btood back against the cistern. "Ah-h-h-h!" lie flung out his heavy legs, slipping down iu his chair, chin in necktie. "Ah-h-h !" The smile grow on his face as tho indoor warmth and dryness crept on his face, and he closed his eyes and lay back. "Supper, girl," he said finally.

I'd sooner stick a knife iu me right here bcfoio Jou, Steve Kineady, than Jive through them first two years with jou again. I told you last night, Steve Kineady, what would happen if you came home without having the pledge signed in j-our hands and your eyes cleur. and before God I mean it. I mean it!" "Annie," he said, leaning bej-'ond the chair arm and with the wateriness overflowing his eyes. "I'll be all right in n minute. Annie girl. hUtle sick, that's all. Weather. Get supper, girl.

Withholding herself there against the wall she jenrned toward him, pressing back with tight lips tho sobs against them. "Steve Stevcy " Ho was constantly with the back of his hand daubing his lips nnd the cor ners o' his ejes. "Steve Steve, don't you know baby can can smell it on your breath now the same as he could if ho was alive Steve!" "Who's doin' this, you jir me?" "Steve, ain't I your wife?

He had risen now, steadying the great hulk of him against tho table and moving toward her between It and tho range. "Steven!" Heat and quick thawing had sent his blood rushing to bis head, enhanc ing his dizziness nnd flowing up over his face. "8tcven!" Ho veorcd shnrply away from the stove and toward her. "Get my boy, d'ye hear? You get him! It was j'our foreign germs. Get him, by God, or " "Stove!" He did not even complete tho ges ture, but instead fell sobbing, with his face buried In tho back of the rocker sho had vacated ; and even ns sho re coiled, with her great bronze head flung back from him and quivering with out rage, as if tho very withes of her were unwrungu in spite of her, she yearned toward him, her conlpasslon flowing over her like warm waters. "Steven!" she cried, reaching out. "Get my boy, you get him." "Steven, you'ro crazy with-- -" "Shut up," ho shouted, raising his head from his urms and regarding her through inflamed eyes. Shut up or get out. Shut up! My boy! Get niy boy, d'jo hear?" He rose and came crazily toward her, with his head forward like a bull lunging. With a cry that rose somewhere from tho primordial depths of her, Annie Kineady leaned backward from him. laid hold of, by u rage that sent the blood darkly up into her face, overlay ing her heavy white skin, creamliko in its thickness, and on up into her hair, where it poured back from her brow.' "You now! You, now!" Springing back, she held herself well away from him. "No, you don't! No jou don't!" Her bat and a wool coat duugled from a peg, and, with u challenging gaze which she did not once remove from him, she slid into them. A strap ped telescope, bulging like nn old has sock, stood by. She reached for it, edg ing along the wall nnd from him. She was breathing so ihat even the side of her which sagged to the consider able weight of tho telescope rose and fell in her'trnvail. , "You," she cried With her hand finally ou the knob aud her hat fallen half back11 from her great bronze bell of a head, "you crazy devil, you ! Why, you don't even get drunk like a man. You only blubber ! Now. Steve Kineady, stand and stare, you ! Crazy devil, you. Shut up or get out? Eh? Shut up or get' out 1 Well, then, crazy devil, you watch! Watch!" "Annie girl! Annie " and in the face of tho slammed door he fell for ward, wepping weak . tears into the rocker seat. Outside the rain camo down like pins, pecking and pricking. When Annie Kineady, plunging through the undrained streets, reached tho rnil ioad tracks, her skirts clung so that bhe stopped for a moment iu the down pour t wring at her hems and the flare d her jacket. Tho lights of ho village burned through the wall of rain like tho glazed ijes of the dying, but in Spartan the nights urc long, aud even as she walked tho tracks tie by tie, she could see them blink out in the box-sliapcd houses, except in the glazier's, whose wife lay low of typhoid-pneumonia, and in Abe Brodie's, made simple, poor soul, by sunstroke, and who loved to count far into tho night imaginary ransoms of imaginary kings. Across the tracks and in the hollow an unaccustomed lamp in Liddy Kineady 's side window burned without flicker. But Annie Kineady gathered her strength and rau. A whistle rose off the tlatlnnds behind her. She ran fuster, her black skirts flapping about her and a wisp of black eil flying back. At the dim station, low nnd squat as a hut, the telegrapher raised up regarding her from under his eye shade. "H'llo, Annie." "H'llo, Joe." ''St. Louis?" (CONTINUED TOMORROW.)
