CHAPTER IH-Contlnued. "Now look here, don't come a twit tin' me," he said. "I was goln' to help you shoot them fellers, but, hang It, Nell took the gun and slipped away with it before I could get to the house. I can't run as fast as I could at one time." "But I saw you running through the street and . deer couldn't have been faster." "You are irlght, I was runnln' for the gun." "But you were not running toward your house." ' "No, of course not, for I knew that Nell had tuck my gun and I was goln' after another one. And It's a good thing for thorn that I didn't get it. But let us git down to business. I have been tlilukin' the matter over and 1 liave come to the conclussion that I can't git along very well without you and I know Nell can't. Why, look here, you ought to be a mother to that girl, hah? Didn't she risk her life to help you? And ain't such courage as that deservln' of a mother? It's easy enuugh to bo a mother to her." "Yes, but I can't very well be a mother to both of you." "The horn spoon! I don't want you to be a motht-r toi me; want you to be a wife to me." "I think a. great deal of you, Mr. Almes." "Bleeged to you, I gad." "And I will break my engagement to those three men and engage mystlf to you for one year." "Cut It down and I'm with you." "All right, we'll say three months." "And will you swear you won't fool me?" "I'll swear that I will not break the engagement unless you are willing." "But here, you won't cut up no caper Jn the meantime that will cause me to draw off, hah? All right now, It's a go, and I'll tell that old woman to weave another rag carpet." He stopped at the door, turned about and re marked: "Ain't quite as chilly as It fwas yistiday." And befure she could reply he had lunged out into the street and was has tening to tell his daughter of his hap- "Polly, What Have You Told Pother?" plness. When Polly reached home, Just as twilight was tangling Itself amid the dead vines In the garden, she found Nell standing at the gate, waiting for her. The girl was nervous, and she opened the gate with a jerk. "What have you told father?" she asked, when Polly passed through the gate. "Don't go Into the ihouse Just yet; wait here a moment. What have you told father?" she repeated. . Polly stood there laughing at her but she grew more nervous. "It is nothing to laugh at," she said. 'You told me, or that Is you agreed, that we (mould never marry land that we should live together." "Don't be worried; I was only Joking with him." "But, Polly, thait was no way to joke with an old man. He la one of the beBt men In the world, and all that, but you don't want ito marry even the best man." "It will work out all right, Nell; don': Worry over it." "But how cun It work out all right?" "Walt, and you shall see." "Yes, and that's what you said about those three men, and that hasn't worked but all right yet. I have tried o hard to understand you, Polly, but eometlmes I Just can't. Why do you wish to mystify me? Haven't I alwayi been frank with you?" "Yes, too frank, perhaps." "That's what I sometimes ithink my Self. Eut hure cornea father." The old man came out, wearing a horseshoe nail mounted as a breastpin. "Father," said the girl, "If I were you I would take off that fool ithlng and throw It away." "Throw away my betrothal pledga, bah? Not much. You go on Into the house and Polly and I will walk down and look at that bottom field of corn by moonlight." "I don't care to walk this evening' Polly replied. "I'm tired." "All right, we'll wait itlll some other Aline; but say, you might let me kiss you once Just for luck.". "No, you've 'had luck enough. By the way, there Is a clause thait I must Insert In our contract, and that Is this: If you speak to me again or to anyone about our compact the engage ment Shall be tinstantly broken. There, not a word or I'll break It right now." To observe the new clause required on the old man's part a strong exeralon of will; and sometimes, in babbling about his bottom field of corn, he ap proached near the danger line. News of tihe engagement got out, but the old fellow tuvore that he had told no one; but ihe fliad been seen talking to the president of the mite society, and It was known that she had spread the re .pont. And she said many things that were not complimentary to Polly; said that she "had come to Broomfleld mere ly to catch a husband. She even stopped Polly In the street and asked tow when .the marriage was to take place. .. . "It seems of deep concern to you," Polly replied. "Oh, not ait all, I'm sure. I Just merely happened to think of It. I don't care If you marry him today, I'm sure. He's nothing to me, goodness knows. And bo far as that's coiicerend, I could iiavp married thlm long ago. I suppose flhe match will be very suit able. He's getting old and you's not so very young yourself. Those oity women have a knack of hiding their age, to Oh, yes, I Should think that you are very well suited. It's nothing to me, I'm sure." "Good, and I hope that you will ac cept an invitation to my wedding." "Oh, I am the last person In 'the world to go to weddings. Of course if It's a romantic affair I don't mind go ing, but a cut and dried marriage never did catoh me. Oh, by the way, what will those three strange men think?" "I don't know, but 1 'have invited them to 1lh e wedding." "Miss, I must say that you are about the curlseat crldter I ever saw, and It strikes me that the less a body has to do with you the butter It will be for om." Several months pasted, and the ex piration of the lease was approaching. And so was the time set for Polly's mar riage. The bottom Held had yielded lavishly and the old man wore a new homespun suit. "You know we had a sort of a contract," he said to Polly one evening. "Yes, but if you speak of the engage ment I'll break It." "I gad, you've got me wound up In a close place. I'd like to- usk you If It ain't about time you was gettln' your dress ready, and all that sort of thing." "Look out now, Mr. Aimes." The old man ducked his head as though a stone had been thrown at him. "All right, miss, but don't forget to blow your horn when you are ready." It was morning, and Polly and Nell were sitting in the parlor at homo, Polly had said that as the lease was about to expire there was no need of going to the ofllce. "We will wait," she said, "and let the owner of the paper come here if he wants to see us." "Do you think of taking It again?" Nell asked, with a touch of sadness in her voice. "No, I think not." "So then you are In earnest about marrying futher." "No, I think not. "You think not? Don't you know?' "Yes. 1 think I do." "Polly, you have one of your mysterl ous fits today. What's the use of keep lng up this foolishness? Tell him that you can't marry him. You have let it run on so long already that he has gone to the expense of getting a new suit of clothes." 'Yes, but he hasn't any more clothes now than he needs." Nell sighed and Polly looked dream lly out Into the garden. "Your coming and your stay has been a romance to me, Polly, and now It must end." She sat with her elbow on a table and med ltatlvely and deftly was touching her hair. The sunlight, streaming" through the high window, fell upon her, illu mined her, and the sad glow of a wish dream was in her eyes. Out In the road, dodging about, stalked a young man, a smitten clown, dying to catch a glimpse of her. "Yes, your coming was so strange a romance, bringing to me a mind that I could admire, and now the music must end in a dry crackle." Polly went to her, leaned over her, kissed her. "Your romance may not end," she said. "But suppose that I should tell you that your romance hail been brought by a circus woman." . "You a circus woman? I didn't know that they were so noble and brave." "I did not say that I was a circus woman, but suppose I were one; and suppose those three men came to per suade me to go back Into the ring." "Oh, you are clearing up one mystery, Go on and you may clear up another, "But Is there any other mystery to clear up?" "Oh, not exactly a mystery, but how are you going to satisfy father that you should not marry him?" "Oh, probably he will laugh at the Idea tomorrow." "But why should he when his mind Is now so set upon It? Do you think that he will decline to marry you because you have been a circus woman?" "No, not particularly." "Oh, you are becoming mysterious ftgaln, Polly. Why don't you be abso lutely frank with me?" "I will be, but not until after twelve o'clock today." (To be Continued.) "where women may vote. A Connected 1. 1st .Makes an Impressive Showing. Somebody has taken the pains to put together In the Chicago Tribune the places where women have whole or par tial suffrage. Taken all in all, it will be seen that they cut quite a figure In the world's politics. In Great Britain women vote for all elective officers except members of par liament. In France, the women teachers eleot women members on all boards of eau cation. In Sweden women vote for all elective officers except representatives; also, In directly, for members of th house of lords. In Norway they have sdhool suffrage, In Ireland the women vote for the harbor boards and poor law guardluns, and In Belfast for municipal officers. In Russia women householders vote HEALTH AND HAPPINESS com to vou if you're a suffering woman, Tlio messenger in this cant is Dr. Picrce'i Farorito Prescription.

In Austria-Hungary they vote by proxy for all elective officers. In Crotla and Dalmatla they have the privilege of doing so In local elections In person. In Italy widows vote for members of parliament. In the Madras presidency and the Bombay presidency (Hindustan) the women exercise the right of suffrage In all municipalities. In all the countries of Russian Asia they can do so wherever a Russian colony settles. The Russians are colon izing the whole of their vast Asian pos sessions and carrying with them every where the "mlr," or self-governing vil lage, wherein women who are heads of households are permitted to vote. Women have municipal suffrage In Cape Colony, which rules a million square miles. Municipal woman suffrage rules In New Zealand, and, I think, at parlia mentary elections. Iceland, In the North Atlantic; the Isle of Man, between England and Ire land, and Pltealrn Island, In the South Pacific, have full woman suffrage. In the Dominion of Canada women ave municipal suffrage In every prov ince, and also In the northwest terri tories. In Ontario they vote for all elective officers, except In the election of members of the legislature and par liament. In the United States twenty-eight states and territories have given women some form of suffrage. School suffrage In various degrees Is granted to women In Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Massasschusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Texas, Vermont and Wisconsin. In Arkansas and Missouri women vote, by petition, on liquor license In many cases. In Delawai-e suffrage Is exercised by women In several municipalities. In Kansas they have equal suffrage with men at all municipal elections. About 50,000 women voted In 181)0. In Montana they vote on all local taxation. In New York they can and do vote nt Bohool elections. The question of the constitutionality of the law Is still un decided. They vote also In many places In Illinois on local Improvements, such as gas and electric street lighting, paving, sewerage and municipal bonds. In Utah women voted until disfran chised by the Edmunds law, when they promptly organized to demand Its re peal. In Pennsylvania a law was passed In 18S1I under which women vote on local Improvements by signing or refusing to sign petitions therefor. In Wyoming women have voted on the same terms with men since 1870. The convention of 18S9 to form a slate con stitution unanimously inserted a pro vision securing them full suffrage. This constitution was ratified by the voters at a special election by about three fourths majority. Congress refused to require the disfranchisement of women, and admitted the state July 10, 1800. And lot it not be forgotten that In the senate of the United States, Feb. 7, 18S, a select committee reported In favor of amending the federal constitution so as to forbid states to make sex a cause of disfranchisement. Congress adjourned, however, March 4 following, without reaching the subject.
