Then I'll pay off the mortgage on the farm, and your father can get a fresh start and ..." now, Anne Mrs. Griffin, in an outburst of hospitality, offered to take the entire Conrad family into her house for the wedding, and to entertain them throughout the period of their stay ; and she proved so perfect a hostess that the Conrads' worst, forebodings melted away at once. There was nothing to rouse their forebodings, either, when Anne appeared In the flesh to take supper at the Griffin's and be presented to them soon after their arrival. There was no denying that she was good looking well, Neal might be forgiven for And her thinking her beautiful. manner was not awkward at all, or bold; on the contrary, she was rather silent, a little shy, but perfectly polite, perfectly 400 $5 Rooms 400 Baths $2.00 to $4.00 Family Room 4 or '5 Persons $5 $?50,s:i,!S2r$250 Batk Room with THE HOTEL NEWHOUSE SALT LAKH CITT.

Ten minutes later they were all in the church parlor. Congratulations were being received and kisses The wedding breakfast, exchanged. over . which Mr. Goldenburg, resplendent In frock coat and gray trousers, was presiding, left nothing to be desired; it was In the same class with the roses. His "plzness frents" had done him proud. So, he reflected, had the girl in whose future he had Invested. He sized np the Conrad family with one or two swift, appraising glances. "Dey took on apout It when de poy told 'em, and now dey're pecause dey can't flnt more vault I" he muttered shrewdly to himself. "Dat liddle Annel she'll come out on top, py and py. A great lady twendy years from now, maype put a great lady, some day I" But alone In her little attic room for the last time, no thought of. possible future greatness for herself entered Anne's head. Her thoughts were all of Neal, who, In her mind, was so great so glorious already, that nothing could magnify him In her eyes. Mabel helped her change from her snowy bridal raiment to the "simple little serge suit," enhanced with a new blouse of matching blue and a new early fall hat Neal was waiting for her outside. In the horseless carriage. They were to motor to a famous Inn, nestled In the heart of the hills fifty miles south, and spend their first night there, lingering on for another day or two if It suited their fancy, then taking an express to New York which connected with a midnight train to Washington. Anne closed her traveling bag, and turned to kiss her friend. "I'm not going to say good-by- . We'll see each other often. My marriage Isn't going to make any dif ference. After Neal and I get settled I want you to come and visit us. Mabel will you do one more thing for me?" " "Of course, n "Take this to Neal, and tell him I'll be there In a minute." Slightly surprised at being dismissed, but without objections, Mabel departed. Anne closed the door carefully behind her and locked It Then, swiftly, she knelt down beside her bed. "Oh, God," she prayed aloud, "please make mo worthy of him I I don't know how to say It. I don't even know how to think It but Neal Is so wonderful, and good and great, that I feel he's going to rise to high places, nelp me to go with him, show me the way. So that he won't leave me behind, so that we can be together always. For Christ's sake. "A Bridal Party!

"But let's go shopping first. I want to have the fun of buying you a dress myself to prove I've got a right to." "Neal, I don't need one, really " "Nonsense, of course you do. A You had a pink dress pink dress. the first time I saw you." "That hideous thing!" "Well, this Isn't going to be hideous; you'll see!" It was not It was frilly with ruffles, frothy with lace, a fairy frock. The saleswoman showed the price ticket to Neal surreptitiously. It was, the saleswoman shrewdly sus pected, far more expensive a dress than they had expected to buy, Neal noticed her strategy, but he paid for the dress unflinchingly. When the saleswoman saw this, she made a suggestion. "Wouldn't madam like a wran to go with the dress? I have Just the thing, marked very low, because It's so late In the season." Almost Instantly she flung around Anne's shoulders a cloak, of moss-gree- wool, satin-linein a paler shade of the same color. The bride stood reflected In the tall glass before them like a rose surrounded by Its leaves. "Neal, you mustn't." "Why, don't you like It?" "Don't I like it!" "Then I must." He counted but more bills carelessly. "Send that, with the dress, to Mrs. Neal Conrad, d g y The trip to Washington had been everything that they both had dreamed of and hoped for and more. They went through the Treasury building and the Army and Navy building, wearily but persistently; through the Corcoran art gallery, puzzled but eager. They surveyed the beautiful chamber of the Supreme court, sat for a few minutes in the vacant gallery of the house of representatives. Last of all, marveling at their temerity, they went to the White House. The uniformed attendant at the entrance regarded them kindly. He was used to bridal couples and this pair was an unusually attractive example of the species. They left in such a state of exaltation that Neal felt the day called for some special celebration to mark "Let's go and have dinner at the Shoreham tonight That's the swell hotel here, I've heard. Shall we? Next time we come we'll be staying there." Anne agreed, Joyfully, and deciding to wear her wedding gown to their little feast The dark blue silk which had seemed so glorious a garment when she purchased it, Their forebodings were not roused was, she had already discovered, on the wedding day, either.

They were hardly seated In the rose and cream dining room when a very young man sprang np from a near-btable and hailed Neal with genuine, If correctly tempered enthusiasm. "Neal Conrad! My dear fellow! where did youv come from and where and why at this time of the year? Not that it matters, so long as you've arrived !" Explanations were Immediately in order. Clarence Hathaway, a former classmate of Neal's at Harvard, had entered the diplomatic service immediately after his graduation. He was already third secretary of legation at Madrid. Home now on leave. Neal sought to congratulate him upon his success. "Nonsense! What about yours! Making money hand over fist so I hear, and causing hibernating Hins-bor- o all sorts of spasms with your political prowess; governor or something, aren't you?" "No," said Neal, laughing, "sit down and have dinner with us, won't my wife," you? This Is Anne he added, with a shade of difference In his voice, as Hathaway swung around, apologizing for his intrusion, swiftly solicitous. "A bridal party! My dear Mrs. Courad, what must you have thought of me, charging In on your exquisite solitude a deux like that? But I was so glad to see Neal In this place, and I hadn't heard. . . . You will let me be host, of course! . . . What kind of cocktails do you like, Mrs. Conrad?" Fortunately, he did not wait for her answer. Anne, blushing with bewilderment, was looking at Neal for help, and he had not caught her . signal. "A clover-leaof course, and Neal and I will have martinis. After dinner we'll go to the theater. Have you ever been to Spain, Mrs. Conrad? Well, you and Neal must run over soon an enchanting country !" Madrid ! He suggested It as casually as George used to speak of driving her into Hamstead. But Anne steadied herself. She mustn't betray her nervousness, her proving cialism, and embarrass Neal Neal who was really twice as wonderful as this attractive stranger. The two men plunged Into politics ; Neal was talking very frankly : He was thinking seriously, he said, of running for mayor, but It took so much money, and he wasn't sure the machine was friendly. Later, while they were getting their hats before starting for the theater, he and Hathaway had a moment alone. And Hathaway asked a question. "Where did you find her. Near?" "In a place called West Ham-steaVermont, about two months ago. She taught the district school. She's the daughter of the village "Well, Anne's Drove Constipation made her feci n Wlia achy, a lovable disposition, ntains" d, ne'er-do-weel- Clarence Hathaway whistled soft- ly. "Any more like her left behind?" "There's no one," said Neal, "like her In the whole world." Clarence whistled again. "I'm Inclined to think you're right"1 he remarked. "However, I'm glad there's one. She'll do very well, as you said, in the governor's mansion." ' j "I didn't say," protested Neal. "Well, you better. Allons, mon cher." Still later, lying In the curve of Neal's arm, Anne thought It all over the strange meeting, the strange visions of new worlds to conquer which followed it. How many worlds were there, yet to be revealed to her? She had already glimpsed so many of which she had never dreamed, these last weeks. And now It was their last night In Washington, the last night of their honeymoon, and tn the morning they would be going back to Ilinsboro, to the little four-rooapartment to hard work and everyday existence. Yet there seemed something about this encounter with Clarence Hathaway that was pregnant with meaning with promise, with prophecy. When they reached Ulnsboro, they had to begin, right away, to economize. They had spent more money than they expected. But that, Neal said with a laugh, was, of course, to be expected. And Anne laughed, too, when he said it But after he had gone to his office, she sat still, with a pencil and a piece of paper In her hand, and did sad little sums, before she even washed the breakfast dishes or made the bed.

It had sounded huge, the amount they could count on for housekeeping, when Neal first told her about It; and here It was melting away to nothing. In her careful hands, . . . Just as those steaks and chops melted away In Neal's mouth, the instant he got home at nlghi, starving hungry. Neal did not complain about the bills; and be praised her cooking, as he praised everything else she did. But once he drew money from the savings bank, where his account was already much depleted, and once the bills were not paid when those of the following month came in, and there were ugly little words "account rendered" -- at the top of her statements. It was then that Anne commenced to do her sad little sums. She roused herself from them at last and began her day's work, for the first time, without Joyousness. She slipped out of bed In the morning while Neal was still asleep, put the clothes to soak, swept and dusted, chilled his orange juice, steamed his cereal, percolated his coffee. At first he remonstrated with her; he liked to find her there beside him to kiss when he woke up besides, there wa3 no need for It But gradually the mental satisfaction and deep physical comfort of rising In a warm, tidy house, to a waiting breakfast perfectly cooked and served, overcame his remonstrances. In the evening he came home to the same shining order, the same complete refreshment There was never cool soup or lukewarm salad; and half an hour after they had finished supper the dishes had been put away, the gas stove was cold, the kitchen dark, and Bhe was curled np against his shoulder in the big Morris chair that was so hideous, but which held both so luxuriously. "One thing I'll never fling In your face," Neal chuckled more than once when they were thus comfortably settled, "'the bread that mother used to make.' Why, you can give mother cards and spades in housekeeping right now I" But those bills! The figures began to dance before her eyes.
