But I had never given a thought te

before long it grew dark and some-

that if I disliked the noise I fairly
dreaded the silence. During the quiet
spells I knew that something was
chewing industriously at the project-

was enveloped. It was hard work for
me to keep from kicking incessantly,
but whenever I rested for a minute
the chewing developed into vigorous
tugs, the significance of which it was
easy for one in my position to appre-

However, I kicked the night through

Times were hard out in Kansas dur

so hard pressed that Mr. Jermy Bixby,

following a night on which he had
mortgaged his brain to his heart, that
he had proposed marriage to Miss Jes-

And, worse, he had been accepted.
Jermy's affection for Miss Jessie

ed before making an offer of such
serious character. And that day had
almost arrived.
Out in one of the new additions to
the town that had been plotted only
the preceding summer, Jermy had
erected a house on a couple of lots
that had fallen to him as a part of
the commission due him for promot-

account with the town site company,
he had accepted more lots

He took every dollar he had, and bor-

new house, which he intended as a
home for himself and Jessie. Of
course he would have to some
cash to get married on, to buy house-

penses for a month or two, or until
he should be able to get a commis-

“Little early this morning, aren't

“Yes, | wanted to talk with you be-

her hands beneath her apron, she
proceeded: “Mr. Bixby, why don't

“Sell it? Why, Mrs. Bain, you

“Yes, | take it to be the best way.

That afternoon Jermy was sitting
