How much longer—how long—how long—how long?” The words drummed in her ears at every beat of the music; every mnote made the pain in her head more acute, as Nellie Day (whose mame on the program was Mlle. Eleanor Diem) pi- rouetted and coquetted fn the maze of her dance, Mlle. Dicm was the premiere dan- seuse of a small company playing “The Circas Lady,” a melodrama of the most mellow order, doing one- night stands in the middle west. Although Nell was the pet of the show, she had incurred the disapprov- al of Henry Sweeny, the big, rough manager, because lately she had “fallen off”” in her high kicking and whirling act. Sweeney had glared at her and mut- tered an oath at the end of the first act, and now she knew a sharp scold- ing would greet her when she re-| l turned to the dingy dressing room. Making her last bow, she smiled right into the eyes of the *“Rube” ! that had followed the show from place to place for over a weck, who every I night had occupicd a front seat, whg { had paid scant attention to the other players, but who always led the ap- plause when Mlle, Diem appeared, { The other members of the company teased Nell in a good-nztured way lnlnml the “mash” she had made on the “Rubo” | Lil and Kid Clay (the Clay sisters) | told her she was a fool not to go out ‘ to supper with him after the show. “If you are so tired of this life, { why don’t you lay off a while and | get him to put up for vou?

Theophilus, hear- ing of her illness, also remained. He it was who saw that her room was made bright with flowers, wild flow- ers that he gathered in the country lanes early in the morning, when the dew was fresh upon them, He it was who fetched the doctor from a neigh- boring town, and who paid for such delicacies as could be obtained at the general store on Main street, uny was foreed : Nell be- v wife of The day she was able to sit up in the big, old-fashioned rocking chair beside her bed the Rube brought a magnificent bunch of roses and a large box of bonbons tied with wide pink ribbon. These had been sent from Chicago, He laid them in her lap; then tak- ing her frail, little hand in his Dbig, brown one he stroked the back of it with the tips of his fingers and in a faltering voice hesitated and stumbled through a proposal of marriage. “Maybe I'm a Rube, little girl; 1 kin take keer of you. Come home with me, home to the farm, and rest all you want to. 1 don't ask you to love me, yet; but just come ‘en let me keer for you like I would my own little sister, if I had one.” Nell buried her face in the roses; their perfume filled the room. With a rush of feeling she knew she loved this man; this “Rube” that all her as- soclates had ridiculed and joked about. But could she marry him? “I—I can't marry you, Theo—I—oh, I'm not good enough to be your wife. You are too good—too honest for a girl like me. 1—" But she got no further. He held her face between his palms, looked straight into her big, brown eyes— eyes that did not waver as they re turned his gaze. “Little Nell,” he said, “I ain’t mar- ryin’ the girl you have been. I want the girl you are; the gentle, honest, sweet girl that I know is your real self. You must forgit everything that happened to you before today. Don't talk about it; don’t think about it Begin to live today, now, the life you | want to live; the pure, clean, sweet life of the open country. Marry me and we’ll go back home. Will you, Nell?” “I needn’t tell you about my life; that other life on the stage?” | “Not a word. You begin to live to- | day a new lifo as my wife, Mrs. The- | ophilus Sykes.” Her body swayed forward and she | buried her face on his shoulder.
