heart of every woman—the fattest, the

---the withered remains of a secret
dream may be found. The dream of
"1110" coming as "warriors carne"—on
a foam-fteeked charger, to seize her

Philip Chalmers had strolled down

over the gate in passing. June knew •

her dawning consciousness of love
there was a balf-defimod ache c£ disap-

she had streamed of was to end in a
wooing at the gate in the most cem-
m"notate way, after all.
And [ben ono night when a copper
moon was shining down cn Tannery
Town, Philip came swiftly and excited-
' ly as she waited at the gate. Ife was
going away that very night; had a
great chance to be a cow-pincher—

but you'd better believe there was a

Plainly the lust of ambition beat in
his pulses; he had forgotten the girl.
June played no part in his scheme of
thluga; it was youth at high tide going
out to conquer. June saw, and her
heart was like to break. The romance
tbat had not opine up to her expeeta-'

PHILIP.
And June did not fail her lover, But
if in her heart was a eruabing sense
of disappointment who shall blame
her? The ane and only time In her
life when Tannery Townmight see her
as an individual with a remanee she
must slip out as unobtrusively as she
had lived. She bad set ter heart ou'

New should it occur to any one to
speak of her, Tannery Town .would
lift its surprised eyebrows and say
vaguely, "June -rose — did you say
Juno? Oh, yes; she finally married
and went away."
Everythlug had been arranged by
wire. It was utterly impossible for
June to realize what Philip had meant
when be salts he had "made good."
Material consideration never once en-
tered her head. She knew she loved
Pili ip,
and she was going to leave
Tannery Town—the other dreams she
had sorrowfully to give up. She was

was childishly delighted to know that
thoy were to ride to the church in an
automobile; 1t will perhaps better ex
plain June to say that she was almost
as excited over the automobile as the
wedding.
Meanwhile Jute's lover was tre-,

would have comforted June to know
how he loathed the necessity that had
arisen suddenly and unexpectedly of
putting through this deal. June was
