ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS

- By JUSTIN WENTWOOD ’
Copyright. use. by The Heal-m Netcmper mm

NLY Frank Hyatt. the drug
store clerk, knew, and Lily
was to meet him at the depot

at seven. She was looking around
the parlor now. with the thrilling
knowledge of her secret.

Her Uncle Eben was there. and
her Aunt Tilly. and Miss 'Wentworth.
from the confectionery. shop, and
her beau. Tom Sullivan, the middle-
aged farmer who had lost his wife
in the spring. He wanted her to
marry him, keep house and scrub
and cool: for him, and bear him chil-
dren. maybe. Just as he bought his
Hoisteine.

Lily was twenty-seven. She was
a plain girl. Even in the hamlet.
where good looks were regarded
with suspicion. Lily passed as plain.
She had never had any serious
wooere.

But then. of course, she was a
pennilees girl whom Uncle Eben had
taken to his house after her father's
death. to do the work of a maid,
without a maid's wages. .

Only Frank Hyatt was he friend
in the little place. In him she had
confided the secret that she had in-
herited a thousand dollars tram
ne'er-do-well Uncle Samuel, who
had died in Chlitornia. Even Uncle
Eben didn‘t know. '.

She had planned to leave the. place
forever. She was going to the city
to ilt herself for a_ course in busi-
n- training. She had given Frank
the momentous check and he was
going to have it cashed when they
arrived. Afterward they were to be
married—after their arrival.

Frank had never spoken of love to
herruntil she told him she had a
thousand dollars and planned to run
away.

She was to .meet him at seven.

Tom Sullivan never spoke of love
to her either. He Just eat and
stared at her. mt. it was an un-
derstood thing that they were to be
married in the spring.

Lilflbat looking at them. thinking
how in two hours' time she would
be on her way to the city. She
laughed inwardly as she sat in the
parlor. ,.

“Say. can’t you and nothing ‘to
do?" demanded Aunt 'riiy. “(Bakes
alive, when I was young I found
eometlalns. to keep me busy all the
time."

The an get up wearily. Winston
it Mr? They could have their
own hired girl next week when she
was gone. She would never write
to them; theyfi should never see her

Tom Sullivan dense out to her.
“Ear. W. when are you and me-
going to dz it up?" he asked.

”How d’you know I want to fix it
up with you?" she retertod.

He stared at her. “Why—say. .
Lily. I thought it was understood,"
he answered. “You know rm crazy
about you." ,

so. Lily hadn't known anything
or tit-land. She had theught.she

you. How about it. gel?"

“I'll let. you know at elem." an-
swered Lily-

And she smiled at the exquisite
jest as she made her! way quietly
down the hill toward the depot.

it was ten to seven when she are
rived. Frank was to be there with
the tickets. As the minutes went by
and he failed to put in an appear
once she began to grow agitated.
At last the train thundered in. It
stopped: she scanned the platiorrn:
Frank had not arrived. And in a
slow. drugged consternation she
watched it go. ,

"Goin' in on the train?" asked the
agent. "That'll be two of you to-

day. You know Frank Hyatt's left’

his job?"

“Yep. that's a fact. Went in on
the five o'clock and said we wouldn't
see his face in this burg again tor
quite a while."

Lily telt suddenly as it her heart
had turned into stone.

And then a great thankfulneaa
came over her as she realised that
she had told no one about her leg-
acy. And everything was as it had

always been. Quietly she took the .

road up to the farm again.

"Mercy. child, where you been?"
Aunt Tily demanded. ’

“0h, Just for a. stroll.” said Lily.

"My sakes. can't you find nothing
better to do than that?“

Outside the room Tom accosted
her. "Say. MY. tel. I been waiting
tor your answer.‘

,She looked at him in wonder; she
had forgotten about that.

“Oh, I suppose-ores." she an-
swered.

And suddenly she began to cry ea
Tomyheld her in his arms. But they
were“ tears of happiness.
