Upon the return' of Irene Hardy' to

ent .tealier mother' that things were,
not as theY °ince had been. There were
varieus vague stirrings oT uneasiness,
but perhape the most alarming mani-
festation was the strange -silence in
winch the, girl enveloped herself. It
seemed as though' she had left part
of, her nature ' behind—had outgrown
it, perhaps—ande had created about
herself an atmosphere of reserve fer,
eign to her earlier life. It Seemed
as though the lonelinete, of the great
plains had eettled'upon her. The old
"Close enough," said Dave, when
the diest. had..settled. "Well, let us

They, took the return trip' leisurely,
drinking, in the glories of the night,
and allowing time for the play of cone
vm'aealon. Bert Morrison was a good
conVersationalist. Her -points e

were hack among the street lights be -

claimed. "And, honest, Dave, I want-

"I -guess el'm tee sympathetic," he

"I suppoee it deiee. But I don't know
