FOR THE SOFA PILLOW COVER Leather Postal Card- May Be Used to Make Most Attractive and Useful Article. Nearly every girl has an accumula- tion of leather postal cards, which may be combined with unstarched burlap to make a very attractive pil- low cover. For an ordinary sized pil- low, about one-halt yard of burlap is necessary. This can be obtained in dark green, dark red or brown. It is sufficiently wide to fold over to form the back of the cover. Nine postals are required, but more may be use if liked. Lay the burlap out flat and pin the postals to the side meant for the top, arranging them ar: tistically. Then “cat stitch” them to the burlap with heavy silk floss of any shade that will blend or contrast colors to match the burlap. Every- thing necessary for making the cover can be secured at any department store at a cost of less than 50 cents. The accompanying cut gives an idea of how the postals may be arranged.

I It was strange that the thought of |Ine| should occur so frequently to | John Phayre's mind as he sat fiehing tbove Clouston weir. Perhaps it was that the miniature rapids above which he fished, heedless of the warnings of the guides and hotel man reminded him a little of the huge Shoshone rap- ids, where he and Inez used to meet. Inez was the daughter of a sheep farmer, and John had worked for the ‘man for two years before the unex- pected death of a rich old uncle left him a fortune. Phayre was forty years old and he had put a barren youth behind him. He had once thought of marrying Inez. But Inez was wholly uneducated, a daughter & the western plains. They loved each other. Had John been ten years younger he would have plunged headlong into matrimony. But middle age brings caution, Apnd 8o, realizing the impfobability that such a mar- riage would bring happiness, John had sald good-by to Inez and her father and gone Fast. There had been a look in Inez" eyea. a hurt, pained, hopeless look—he re- membered it often nowadays as he sat fishing on the little Adirondacks lake near the summer hotel. It was unfor- tunate that he ehould be thinkiag of Inez when he was engaged to marry Dorothy Baird. He had met the Bairds in New York, and Mr. and Mrs, Baird had suggested thet they meet at the hote! that summer. There seemed to be a good deal in common between Dorothy and John. She was a merry, jolly girl, just such a one as he would have fallen in love with, twenty years ear- lier, when life stretched, fair and un- stained, before him. So they became engaged. John picked up his fishing rod and, putting on his hat, stepped out of the boat and made his way back to the hotel. It was evening and the dark- nees was rushing over the mountain tops. John approached the hotel qui- The: River Bore It Faster Upon Its Breast. etly. He meant to surprise Dorothy alone on the piazza, where she liked to sit in the hour before dinner. It was the month of June, and the hotel was almost empty. As he came through the shadows of the pine trees he heard a man's voice speaking. “But is all our love to go for noth- ing?”" he was asking. “Surely duty does not mean that! you must throw away the happiness of two people?” ' went to his lawyer and told him that | he wished to settle a sum of money upon his flancee. “I suppose it is not necessary to let her know before the marriage takes place,” he said. “I would rather it had | the aspect of a—surprise.” “Certainly not, Mr. Phayre,” an- swered the old lawyer. “How much is | the sum you were thinking of settling | on Miss Baird?” “One hundred thousand dollars,” an- swered John. “A large sum, Mr. Phayre,” suggest- ed the lawyer, rubbing his hands thoughtfully. “It will etill leave me a hundred thousand of my own,” John Phayre replied. “Well, Mr. Phayre, I don’t wont to dissuade you, but—well, often a man acts impulsively and regrets it after ward.” “I shall not regret it,” answered | John. “Please draw up the settlement in such a way as to make it absolutely irrevocable in case I change my mind or—die.” The lawyer drew up the settlement, and John left him. He went to his bank and drew out ~ hundred thou- sand dollars in notes. This he mailed to himeelf at a post office in the West. Nobody at Shoshone Station knew | anything of John Phayre's eastern 1 connectiors. Thea Joha went back to the hotel. | “Are you going fishing again, John?" {inquired Dorothy affectionately, put- ting her arms round him. “I wish you wouldn’t fish above the weir, John. You know a guide was killed there last fall, when his boat drifted over the rapids.” “Oh, I can take care of myself, Dor- othy,” answered John, smiling. *“I wish you cared for fishing, Dorothy. After we are married I shall initiate yon into the joys of fly fishing.” was something of an effort to John to play the game. And/the real- ization that the girl's affection for him was a simulated one made it doubly llmrd But at last he was gome, and, | half an hour later, he sat in his boat above the weir, casting his line. He fished for about two hours, thinking hard. As every fly fisherman knows, the sport {s conducive to men- tal exercise. He had fully made up his mind when the two hours were ended and five large trout lay in the boat. He would go back to Shoshone Station. The thought of Ines was curiously insistent with him that day. Igno- rant? Unlettered? At least she was the type of woman who would always be true to her chosen mate. And he must give Dorothy to the man she loved. Poor little Dorothy! He was able to think of her mow without a shadow of regret. He had loved her, but the discovery of her love for Ar- nold had shown him that his heart lay westward, where he had once thought it lay. The faces of Inez and Dorothy rose up before his mental eye, as in a picture. He scanned them carefully. He saw himself and Dorothy, he grow- ing old, she approaching the mature beauty of middle life, discontented, trying to fight down her dissatisfac- tion with life—then Inez, and the placid current of '*elr life together on thegreat plains. He threw his hat into the boat snd put on a cap which he had brought in his pocket. He put his fishing. tackle into the boat also. Then, with his knife, he cut the rope that tied the craft to the tree trunk. Afterward, holding the severed end in his hands, he frayed the strands, eo that the rope should seem to have snapped rather than to have been cut. Having done this, he released it and let it glide down the stream, and stood : watching fit. It drifted slowly, gathering impetus. Then the river bore it faster upon its breast, and it spun no more, but head- ed straight forward toward the treach- erous rapids beneath him. Faster and faster; now it wae going full speed toward the rocks. How like his life! How like John's life! It shot forward as swiftly as an arrow, stopped for a moment, spun broadside on, and then, poising itself John meant to slip away. He uid | upon the brink, it leaped down among not want to spy upon a love affair. But, to hie horror, he heard the wom- an’s voice reply, and the woman was Dorothy. Her words were broken with sobs. “Arnotd, I 1ove you as I have always loved you,” she answered. “But I owe everything to my father, and my duty forces me to marry John Phasre.” “But you don’t love him, Dorothy!” “Hae thinks I do. And I respect him, Arnold. So. please God, he shall never know.” “Dorothy, you are deceiving your- self. You have made yourself think that it is your duty to your father to marry this man—this old man, for he is nearly twice your age But you are eelling yourself, Dorothy.” “Arnold!” “Yes, you are selling gourself,” he answered bitterly. “That marriage portion that he has promised to settle on you, which will go to your father, is the price of your dishonor and my betrayal.” “Arnold! How dare you say such bitter words to me!” exclaimed the girl. “There, forgive e, Dorothy. I will say no more. Tell me you love me and I will try to bear with my wretch. ed fate. I know you will regret .your decision bitterly. But if it must be— must it be, Dorothy?” She murmured some inarticulate words, and then, with a wild outburst of wheping, she fell into hie arms. John Phayre’s face was as white as a dead man’s as he crept into the ho- tel and up to his room. On the next day he excused himselt to the Bairds, alleging that he had to run up to New York on business. He (the foamy boulders to the placid lake below. John stood and looked after it. The irrevocable act was done. There was no going back now. And he did not want to go back, He had set Dorothy free. After a decent interval of mourning she would marry Arnold. The hundred thousand dol- lare that he had settled upon her would be quite secure. It would af- ford the lovers a comfortable income, and leave something over for old Baird. John Phayre smiled contentedly as he sat upon the banks and let the warm sun stream on his face. An hour later he rose to his feet and made his way across country five miles, to where the Transcontinental halted to take on water. As he reached the place the train was already appear- ing in the distance. It slowed up, and John sprang aboard. Four days later John Phayre de- scended at Shoshone Station. A buck- board, driven by a woman, was wait- ing there. John looked into the face of Inez. “Have you come back to stay, John?” she whispered. “For ever and ever, Inez,” answered John, kissing her. And as they drove off over the alkall plains no thought of the past disturbed him, or Ines, gither, for each was im- measurably happy in the knowledge of the other’s love. (Copyright, 1914, by W. G.
