Her Christmas at home had been most unsatisfactory, due to the fact that she missed Dick so and none of her relatives seemed to sympathize with her. Women of her mother's type knew but one code after to husband and family.

Eve noticed the ashes in the tray next to Dick's favorite chair. Wearily she sank into the chair and tenderly stroked the arms because Dick had been there so recently. She closed her eyes and tried to picture just how he looked, wondered whether he were thinner, tired and sad looking or robust and happy. Miss McElhinney would know, she thought bitterly, and her resentment against Dick and the girl increased as she pondered oVer the latter's story of Dick's Christmas. Of course they had planned it all.

She had been blind to fail to see it before. That was why he had not notified her sooner of his plans. Uncontrollable sobs broke from Eve and her body shook. At last ehe went to bed. It was then that she found Dick's Christmas gift.

He had placed the package under her pillow. Eve drew it out and unwrapped it. Inside was a cameo pin with an old gold setting. Of course Dick was hurt because Eve had not confided to him. her plan to go home to visit her parents.

She had had plenty of time to do so. It had only been the day before Christmas when rie found that he could get away from work long enough to Make the trip to Lake City. The severity of the winter snowstorms was causing much difficulty on the job and Dick had been prepared to spend most of Christmas day at work. Thus he had been unable to foresee the change in circumstances which made it possible for him to leave. In Eve's next letter to Dick she berated him for neglecting to let her know that he was coming.

His answer was a frank retort. After reading that letter Eve had no doubt that he considered her seU- That he was displeased with the outcome of their marriage was also evident. Eve destroyed the flippant reply she had composed. She had the grace to admit to herself that the present situation was her own fault. But something perverse in her nature prevented her telling Dick this.

Thus the breach widened. (To Be Continued.) M. Two Fires in Mercer County Recently county officers have opened an investigation m' regard to two farm fires, the first the night of Aug. 31 and the second on Wednesday night of this week. The more recent fire caused the destruction of a large barn on the Omer Deeds farm near Mannon which is farmed by Frank Norton.

The owner and'tenant! both believe this fire to have been incendiary. The blaze was discovered about midnight and 30 tons of hay, 400 bushels of oats, a binder, a new wagon, harness anc other farm equipment was destroyed. The loss exceeds $1,000 and is only partially covered by insurance. The first fire which occurred the night of Aug. 31 was on the C.

R. Gates farm north of Joy and the circumstances surrounding the two fires are reported as similar. County officers declined to make any definite statement in regard to their activities but admitted that they had information which leads them to believe that the fires were set. No arrests have been made. lsV- Une.

South Muscatine drainage problems were discussed by the council Thursday night in relation to the present standing of the city sewer fund, the outcome being that the aldefmen instructed H. H. Fitzgerald, city engineer, to start legal proceedings necessary to the issuance of worth of sewer bonds. Alderman Eric Bartelt brought the matter before the council. His aim is for a new sewer from Gfandview avenue down to Warren street, Division street and Bleeker street to Muscatine slough to solve a drainage problem.

Estimated cost would be $3,000. There is a balance of about left in the year's sewer fund appropriation, with about the same amount of cash available in the sewer fund. Aldermen Elmer Graebner and GUB Weis voiced objections to utilising all the money available for on6 project, questioning the city's predicament in case some emergency arose. Hence Bartelt advancd the bond issue plan, holding that the bonus could be issued, and if no emergency arises during the remainder of the present fiscal year, they could be retired immediately from the sewer fund. Mr.

Fitzgerald was also authorized, on Bartelt's motion, to go to Moline to obtain prices on a pump to be utilized in pumping water in Muscatine slough over the Leutzinger bar in Muscatine slough. The bar now obstructs the flow of water in the slough, into which South Muscatine storm Water sewers fiow and handicaps the proper operation of the syi- tem.
