"You are so good, Nellie," corrected
John gravely, "that we must shield
you from every danger."
"You are a tyrant!" voiced Nellie,
now bursting into tears. "Ob. I know

—you are jealous! jealous! jealous!
Don't waste your time. If you were
the only man In the world, I would
pass you by with contempt."
She flounced back into the house
with the dignity of a disdainful duch-
ess. Her words cut deep. A spasm of
mental pain crossed the pluin, honest
face of John Itedmond. He had spok-
en of duty, and at the risk of antago-
nizing her had offended her. Love was
; in his innermost soul, however, and
he felt that he was drifting far away
from its object in acting the censor
and guardian.
John lived on the next place to the
Otley home, with his widowed mother.
The proximity favored keeping close
track of Nellie. She was an inipetu-
I ous, innocent girl, thoroughly ignorant
of the ways of the world. She hud
met a summer boarder at the lake re-
sort hotel, and he had dazzled her.
To Nellie, for the time being at least,
Burlingame was the pink of perfection
among men. He fluttered her and paid
her expensive attention. John began
looking him up. He did not tell Nellie
all he had learned. He hoped to be
ablo to banish Burlingame without
I making disclosures that would humil-
| late her.
It had been of no avail. Her father
was old, had always let his children
: grow up in their own way. She had
no mother, and her married sister was
engrossed in bringing up her own fam-
ily. John felt called upon to act. He
had done so. A covert threat of ex-
1 posure had sent the persistent Burl-
ingame adrift, but he had aroused a
perverse and stubborn spirit in Nel-
lie that caused him anxiety.
Burlingtme did not venture near the
Otley home during the next week.
Nellie pouted and moped like a peev-
ish, spoiled child. She did not speak
to John when he appeared about the
place, although he sat at the same
table at dinner time, bclug engaged
in some work for Mr. Otley. Every
evening John watched the Otley home.
Nellie apparc ntly saw no visitors, and
, did not go any place where she was
liMI*ly to meet Burlingame.
One afternoon, however, an incident
j transpired that aroused the attention
I of John. He saw Nellie meet the
postman at the gate, receive a letter. '
thrust it hastily into her pocket and
hurry to a part of the house lot where
the shrubbery was thickest. John was
resting beyond the 4hedge, where he
could view her plainly. Nellie read
the letter eagerly. Her faee bright-
ened, and then, as if bent on answer-
ing it at once, she hurried towards the
house, to go to her room. A white ob- 1
jeet flitted from her pocket as she
brushed by some bushes. John was
at the spot as soon as Nellie reached
the house. He rapidly read the mis-
sive, and then, as Nellie reappeared
from the house, dropped the letter and
hastened to covert.
Nellie recovered **ie letter with .1
glad smile and once more disappeared.
Pacing up and down beyond the hedge,
John wore a grave, perplexed look J
upon his face.
The letter, as he had suspected, was
from Kurlingame. Others had passed
between that individual and Nellie,
and this one was the result of the
secret correspondence. Burlingume
wrote that the only course open was
an elopement. At a certain hour,
near a certain place, an automobile
would be waiting for Nellie the next
evening. It would speed with her to
the city and land with her at a hotel,
where Burlingame would be awaiting
her. A hasty marriage, a brief hon-
eymoon and they would return home
"to be forgiven."
"The scoundrel!" commented John
hotly. "What had I better do?"
It was in his power through com-
plete exposure of Burlingame to pre-
sent the elopment, but he feared a
woman's willful temper. No, he would
unmask the villain in a way that
would drive Nellie forever away from
[the man whose false pretensions had
dazzled her.
Nellie arrived at the rendezvous in
a lonely country lane, and the muf-
|fled-up chauffeur simply nodded as If
to Indicate that he had explicit or-
ders. There was a rapid spin. An
hour later the machine entered a dark
•street In the great city. The chauf-
ifeur hurried Nellie into a dimly lit
building, up a flight of stairs, pushed
open a door, and she stood, puzzled
and trembling, In the presence of a
poorly dressed woman. The apart-
ment bore signs of abject poverty, a
little babe slept in a broken-down
cradle. The woman tixed wearied, al-
most indifferent eyes upon her.
"Where is—I do not understand—"
began Nellie, shrinking back.
"That you meet Mrs. Burlingame in-
stead of Mr. Burlingame?" demanded
the woman in a tone of bitterness.
"Yes. I am his wife, and your best and
truest friend has brought you here,
first, to see the neglected wife, and
then the husband, If you still cherish
the thought that Vance Burlingame,
or David Martin, as he really is, can
be worthy of any woman's love."
Nellie Otley, blinded with tears,
fairly staggered from that poor room
after the dismal story of a heart's
shipwreck had been recited.
"Oh, take me back home—don't de-
lay, don't deceive me," she wailed.
"Oh, John! John! truest friend, in-
,deed, I have lost even you!"
"I will take you home, Nellie," spoke
the muffled chauffeur, revealing him-
sMf. "Poor child! think no more of
all this, and forgive me if I have been
harsh."
"Oh, John!" sobbed Nellie, "I have
been a wicked, willful girl. I never
loved that wretch. It was vanity, ob-
stinacy, because I was scolded—what
must you think of me!"
"That you are the sweetest, dearest
girl In the world," declared the
staunch, loyal fellow, and Nellie, eager
and trembling and happy, moved up
close to him and snuggled there, con-
tent.

ALAMO ITEMS.
Alamo is never reported through
the columns of your paper, still we
believe the district is in the finest
shape of any rural district in the
county. It is not bonded and of its
forty-eight residents, thirty-seven
own their own homes. We have seven
cars. A. R. Davis was our first citi-
zen to own one. Others contracted
j the "fever" as follows: Sim Morrison,!
Grover Staley, A. J. Stevens, W. L.!
Tessenbeck, Tom Watkins and V. i
Page.
These people are novel- content with '
less than eight months of school and I
by the way, our school is actually a j
community center. A thriving literary :
meets every two weeks, and has a J
nice program and debates, some cur-'
I rerit questions and occasionally the
neighbors are disturbed by an old-1
time singing at the school hou#. j
Two churches are supported. The I
Methodist at Shiloah and the Baptist!
at New Hope, with enough non-
participants to make one stronger
than either of these. But our match- j
maker has gone to the war. Holidays
have past without a single wedding, |
and no hopes of one, still it seems our j
prhnaiw teacher, Miss Sadie Hyde,
gets along with Morrison's children '.
better than last year. ,
We believe our moving is done. I
Aaron Bradshaw has bought and oc-1
cupied the Eli Davis place. Ketner, |
the Kerby place and Frazier the
Nickel place. Of our renters^ W. B. !
Garrison occupied the place vacated !
by Richardson, the latter going to j
Feutral's place. Lewis has StevenV
north place. Butler is on Davis
place. Halcom moves to the Hitch-
cock farm. We welcome these!
strangers and trust they will catch 1
the spirit; make goofl citizens and
neighbors.
The Alamo basketball boys say t
that Canada is trying to cover up;
a broken reputation by sending
crooked reports to the paper. The
two teams met at Canada, Dec. 22,
and the score was 20 to 16, in favor
of Alamo. They met at Alamo, Dec.
28, and the score was 11 to 10 for
Alamo. We then see the report that
it was Canada's third team which
bore this defeat. Alamo asked for |
their best and are well enough ac-
quainted with their neighbors to'
know they got the best in Canada's'
school. Now that bunch of young men
over there who have been playing
Moore, Washington and other places
did not offer to play us for we knew
they had not been in school since they
were boys. We know the only way to
have clean school athletics is to play
scholars.
If this escapes the waste basket,
look for us again. STUDENT.

The educational value of travel is
beginning to have the greatest weight.
Boys and girls who have been to the
best schools help complete their edu-
cation by seeing the world or such
parts of it as their time and circum-
stances will permit. The grown-up
who is wise realizes the broadening in-
fluence of travel and counts each day
well spent that brings him new experi-
ences In foreign fields. No one can fall
to be uplifted by seeing some of God's
masterpieces or the handiwork of
man In picture, sculpture, cathedral
and splendid public edifices. Nor is
It necessafy to leave one's own coun-
try. There is plenty to be seen and
