ERY early in the morning a messenger boy stumbled up the front steps of Mere- dith's hA.use and handed the colored servant four yellow en - /elopes, night messages. The man tarried them upstairs, left three with Ibis master's guest, then knocked on Meredith's door till a response as- loured him that the occupant was !Wake and slid the fourth envelope funder the door. Meredith lay quite lvithout motion for several minute's, tiieepily watching the yellow rhomboid In the crevice. It was a hateful looking thing to mix itself in with a pleasant /bream and insist on being read, but lifter a while he climbed groaningly out ibf bed and perused the message with heavy eyes, still half asleep.

Tom rubbed his sticky eyelids and *hook his head violently in a Spartan effort to rouse himself, but what more effectively performed the task for him Lvere certain sounds that issued from Harkless' room across the hall. For •home minutes Meredith had been dully )conscious of a rustle and stir in the Invalid's chamber, and he began to !realize that no mere tossing upon r bed would account for a noise that reached him across a wide hall ens through two closed doors of thick wal Out. Suddenly he heard a quick, beavg Cause of Constipation TH8 "bile" is Nature's cathar- tic, So long as the liver sup- plies a good flow of bile the. food passes along the alimentary canal and the waste matter is promptly removed from the body.

The servant bad gone downstairs. Who in the sick man's room wore shoes? He rushed across the hall in his pajamas and threw open the unlocked door. The bed was disarranged and va- cant. Harkless, fully dressed, was standing in the middle of the door hurling garments at u small trunk. The horrified Meredith stood for a sec- ond bleached and speechless; then he rushed upon his friend and seized him with both hands. - "Mad, by heaven! Muir;.' "Let go of me, Tom!" .f`:' "Lunatic! Lunatic!" "Don't stop me one instant!" Meredith tried to force him toward the bed. "No; get back to bed. You're delirious, boy!" "Delirious nothing! I'm a well man." "Go to bed! Go to bed!" Harkless set him out of the way with one arm. "To bed!" be cried. "I'm going to Plattville!" Meredith wrung his hands. "The I doctor"— ("Doctor be hanged!" "What in the name of all that's ter- rible is the matter, John?" I His companion slung a light overcoat, unfolded, on the overflowing, mis- shapen bundle of clothes that lay in the trunk, then be jumped on the lid with both feet and kicked the hasp into the lock, while a very elegantly laun- dered cuff and shirt sleeve dangled out from under the fastened lid. "1 haven't one second to talk, Tom; I have eight- een minutes to catch the express. It's more than a mile to the station, and the train leaves here at 9:02. I get there at 10:47. Telephone a cab for me, please, or tell me the number. I don't want to stop to hunt it up." Meredith looked him in the eyes. In the pupils of Harkless flared a fierce light, • His checks were reddened with an angry, healthy glow, and his teeth were clinched Ull the line of his jaw stood out like that of an embattled athlete. His brow was dark, his chest was thrown out, and he took deep, quick breaths. His shoulders were squared, and in spite of his thinness they looked massy. Lethargy or ma- laria, or both—whatever his ailment— it ilmentit was gone. He was six feet of hot wrath and cold resolution. Tom said, "You are going?" "Yes," he answered quietly, • "I am going." "Then I will go with you." "Thank you, Tom," said Harkleeu simply. Meredith ran into his room, pressed an electric button and began to dive Into his clothes with a panting rapidity astonishingly foreign to his desire. The colored man appeared in the doorway. "The cart, Jim! shouted his master. "We want it like lightning. Tell the cook to give Mr. Harkless his breakfast in a hurry. Sot a cup of coffee on the table by the front door for me. Runt We've got to catch a train. That will be quicker than any cab," be explained to Harkless. "We'll break the ordi- nance against fast driving getting down there." I Ten minutes later the cart swept away from the house at a gait that pained the respectable neighborhood. The big horse 'plunged through the air, his ears laid flat toward his tail. The cart careened sickeningly, and the face of the servant clutching at the rail in the rear was smeared with pallor as they pirouetted around curves en one wheel. To him it seemed they skirted the corners and death simultaneously, and the speed of their going made a strong wind in their faces. Harkless leaned forward, "Can, yon itini;e it a little fatter, Torn?" he said. They dashed up to the station amid the cries of people flying to the walls for safety. The two gentlemen leaped from the cart, bore down upon the ticket office, stormed at the agent and ran madly at the gates, flourishing their passports. The official on duty eyed them wearily. "Been gone two minutes," he remarked with a peace- able yawn. Harkless stamped his foot on the ce- ment flags; tken he stood stock still, gazing at the empty tracks, but ;Mere- dith turned 'to him, smiling. "Won't til keep?" he asked. "Yes, It will keep," John answered. "Part of it may have to keep till elec- tion day, but some of it I will settle before night. And that," be cried be- tween his teeth, "and theft is the part of it in regard to young Fished" "Oh, It's about H. Bisbee, fe it?" "Yes, it's H. Fisbea" "Well, we might as well go up and see what the doctor thinks of you; there's no train." "1 don't want to see a doctor again ever—as long tilt I the. I'm as well as anybody." Toin burst out laughing and dapped his companion lightly on the shoulder, his eyes dancing 'with pleasure. "Upon my soul," he cried, "I believe you are. A miracle wrought by the witek wand of indignation) That's rather against tradition, isn't it? Well, let's take a drhe."

There's another train at 11:55; 1 don't take any chances on missing that one." "Well, well," laughed his friend, push- ing him good humoredly toward a door by a red and white striped pillar, "we'll wait here if you like. But at least go in there and get a shave; it's a clean shop. You want to look your best if you are going down to fight H. Vis - bee." "Take these, then, and you will un- derstand," said Harkless, and he thrust his three telegrams of the morning into Tom's hand and disappeared Into the barber shop. When be was gone Meredith went to the telegraph office in the station and sent a line over the vires to Helen: "Keep your delegation at home. He's coating on the 1]:55."

HE accommodation train wan- dered down through the aft- ernoon sunshine, stopping at every village and every coun- try postoffice on the line. There was a passenger in the smoker who found the stops at these wayside hamlets in- terminable. He got up and paced the aisle now and then, and his companion reminded him that this was not cer- tain to hasten the hour of their arrival at their destination. • "I know that," answered lie, "but I've got to beat McCune." "By the way," observed Meredith, "you left your stick behind." "You don't think I need a club to face"— Tom choked. "Oh, no; I wasn't think- ing of your giving H. Fisbeo a beating. I meant to lean on." "I don't want it. I've got to walk lame all my life, but I'm not going to bobble on a stick." Tom looked at him sadly for a mo- ment. -It was true, and the Crossroad - ere might bug themselves in their cells over the thought. For the rest of his life John Harkless was to walk with just the limp they themselves would have had if, as in former days, their sentence had been to the ball and chain. "Sit down, boy, alt down," said Meredith, and his friend obeyed. The window was open beside the two young men, and the breeze that blew in soothed like a balm, yet held a tang and spice in it, a hint of walnuts and of coming frost. There was a newness in the atmosphere that day, a bright Are a True Heart Tonic, Nerve Food and Blond 'Enricher.

Autumn spoke to industry, told of the sowing of another harvest, of the tawny shock, of the purple grape, of the red apple, and call- ed upon muscle and laughter, breath- ing gayety into men's hearts. The little stations hummed with bustle and noise, big farm wagons rattled off up the vil- lage streets :tad raced with "cut under" or omnibus; people walked with quick steps; the baggagemastcrs called cheerily to the trainmen, and the brakemen laughed goodbys to rollick- ing girls. At thnes the train ran be- tween shadowy groves, and delicate landscape vistas, framed in branches, opened, closed and succeeded each otii- er, and then tit`s travelers were carried beyond into the level open again and looked out to where the intensely blue September skies ran down to the low horizon, meeting the boundless aisles of corn. It takes a long time for the full beauty of the flat lands to reach a man's soul. Once there, nor bills, nor sea, nor growing fan leaves of palm shall suffice him. It is like the beauty in the word Indiana. It may be that there are people who do not consider Indiana a beautiful word, but let it ring true in your ears, and it has a richer sound than Vallombrosa. All at once the anger ran out of John Harkless. IIe was a hard man for anger to tarry with. And in place of it a strong sense of home coming began to take possession of him. He was .go- ing home. "Back to Plattville, where I belong," he said to himself without bit- terness, and it was the truth. "Every man cometh to his own place in the end." Yes, as one leaves a gay acquaintance of the playhouse lobby for some hard handed, tried old friend, so he would wave the outer world godspeed and come back to the old ways of Carlow! What though the years were dusty, he had bis friends and his memories and his old black brier pipe. He had a girl's picture that be should carry in his heart till his last day, and if his life was sadder it was infinitely richer for it. His whiter fireside would be not so lonely for her sake, and, losing her, he Iost not everything, for he bad had the rare blessing of having known her. And what man could wish to bo healed of such a hurt? Far better to have had it than to trot a smug pace unscathed. He had been a dullard, a sluggard, weary of himself, unfit to fight, a fail- ure in life and a failure in love. That was ended. He was tired of failing, and it was time to succeed for awhile. To accept the worst that fate can deal and to wring courage from it instead of despair—that is success, send it was the success that he would have. He would take fate by the neck. But had it done him unkindness? He looked out over the beautiful, "i • eiotonous" landscape, and be answer .1 heartily, "No!" There was ignore ;...e in man, but no unkindness. Were t.:an utterly wise he were utterly kind. The Cross - readers had not known better, that was all. The unfolding aisles of corn ewam pleasantly before his eyes. The earth hearkened to man's wants and answer- ed. The element sun and summer rains hastened the fruition. Yonder stood the brown haystack, garnered to feed the industrious horse that had earned his meed. There was the straw thatch- ed shelter for the cattle. How the or- chard boughs beut with their burdens! The big red barns stood stored with the harvest, for this was Carlow coun- ty, and he was coming home. They crossed a byroad. An old man With a streaky gray chin beard was Bitting on a sack of oats in seatless wagon waiting for the train to pass. Harkless seized his companion excited- ly by the elbow. "Tommy," be cried, "It's liim Fentrtss! Look! DM you see that old fellowl" "1 saw a particularly uninterested and uninteresting gentleman sitting oY a bag," replied his friend. "Why, that's old Ii:imball Fentriss.. He's going to town. lie lives on the edge of the county." "Can this be titter said Meredith grarely. "I wonder:," said Jtarkless thought;• fully a few moments later -"I wonder why he had them changed around." "Who changed around?" "The team. Ile always used to drive the bay on the near side- and the sor- rel on the off." "And at present," rejoined Meredith, "I am to understand that he is driving Use sorrel on the near side and the bay on the off?" "That's it," returned the other. "He must have worked theta like that for some time, because they didn't look uneasy, They're all right about the train, those two. I've seen thein stand with their heads almost against a foot freight. See there." ile pointed to a white frame farmhouse with green blinds. "That's Win Hibbard's, We're just outside of Beaver." "Beaver? Elucidate Beaver, boy." "Beaver? Meredith, your informa- tion ends at home. What do you know of your own state if you are ignorant of Beaver? Beaver Is that city of Car- low county next in importance and population to Plattville." Toni put his head out of the window. "I fancy you are right," he said, "I already see flue people there." Meredith had observed the change in Ills companion's mood. He had watched him closely all day, looking for a re- turn of his malady, but he came to the conclusion that in truth a miracle had been wrought, for the lethargy was gone and vigor seemed to increase in Ilarkless with every turn of the wheels that brought them nearer Plattville, and the nearer they drew to Plattville the higher the spirits of both the young men rose. Meredith knew what was happening there, and be began to be a little excited. As he bad said, there were five people visible at Beaver, and he wondered where they lived, as the only building lu sight was the station, arid to satisfy his curiosity he walked out to the vestibule. The little station stood in the woods, and brown leaves whirled along the platform, One of the five people was an old lady, and she en- tered a rear car. The other four were men. One of them handed the con- ductor a telegram. Meredith heard the official say: "All right. Decorate ahead. I'll hold it five minutes." The man sprang up the stepe of tho smoker and looked in. He turned to ltleredlth. "Do you know if that gen- tleman in the gray coat is Mr. Hark- less? Ice's got his back this way, and I don't want to go inside. The air in a smoker always gives me a gpell.' "Yes, that's Mr. Harkless." The man jumped to the platform. "All right, boys," Ile said. "Rip her out!" The doors of the freight room were thrown open, and a big bundle of col- ored stuffs was dragged out and hastily unfolded. One of the men ran to tho farther end of the car with a strip of red, white and blue bunting and tack- ed it securely, while another fastened the other extremity to the railing of the steps by Meredith. The two com- panions of this pair performed the same operattou with another strip on the other side of the car. They ran ' similar lines of bunting near the roof from end to end, so that except for the windows the sides of the car were completely covered by the national col- ors. Then they draped the vestibules with flags. It was all done in a trice. Meredith's heart was beating fast. "What's it all about?" he asked. "Picnic down the line," answered the tnan in charge, removing a tack from ' lois mouth. Ho motioned to the con, ductor, "Go ahead!" The wheels began to move; the deo- orators remained on the station plat- form, letting the train pass them, but Meredith, craning his neck from the steps, saw that they jumped on the last car. "What's the celebration?" asked Harkless when Meredith returned. "Picnic down the line," said Mere- , dlth. "Niiping weather for a picnic. A bit cool, don't you think? One of those fel- lows looked like a friend of mine, • Homer Tibbs, or as Homer might look if he were in disgrace. He had his hat hung on his eyes, and he slouched like a thief in melodrama as he tacked up the bunting on this side of the car." He continued to point out various familiar places, finally breaking out enthusiastically as they drew nearer the town: "Hello: Look there—beyond the grove yonder! See that house?" "Yes, John." "That's the Bowlders'. You've got tit know the Bowlders.' "I'd like to." "The kindest people in the world.

Fisbee might turn out more honest than you think." Harkless threw his bead back and laughed. "Honest! A man in the pay of Rodney McCune! Well, we can let it wait till we get there. Listen! There's the whistle that means we're getting near home. Why, there's an oil well!" "So it is." "And another—three, five, seven— seven in sight at once!

They ran by the outlying houses of the town amid a thousand descriptive exclamations from Harkless, who wish- ed Meredith to meet every one in Car- low. But he came to a pause in the middle of a word. "Do you hear mu- sic," he asked abruptly, "or is it only, the rhythm of the ties?" "It seems to me there's music in the air," answered his companion.

From somewhere down the trade came the detonating boom of a cannot There was a clash of brass, and the travelers became sure of a band play- ing "Marching Through Georgia." Meredith laid his hand on his com- panion's shoulder. "John," he said, "John 1" The cannon fired again, and there came a cheer from 8,000 throats, the shouters all unseen. The engine cough- ed and panted, the train rolled on, and in another moment it bad stopped alongside the station in the midst of a riotous jam of happy people who were waving flags and banners and handker- chiefs and tossing their bats high in the air and shouting themselves hoarse. The band played In dumb show. It could not bear itself play. The people came at the smoker like a long wave, and Warren Smith, Briscoe, Keating and Mr. Bence of Gaines were swept ahead of it. Before the train stopped they had rushed eagerly up the steps and entered the car. Harkless was on bis feet and started to meet them. He stopped. "What does it mean?" he said and be- gan to grow pale. "Is Halloway—did McCune—have you"— Warren Smith seized ono of his bands and Briscoe the other. "What does it mean!" cried Warren.
