I Goodwin's weekly.. 13 II (Continued from Page 5) v mm, tho samo phase of temperament that had "drawn 1 my boyish adoration and you gave it the fin ished effect that you gave your other parts. As I've said, it was real to Chelling. It is real to him! and that's the tragedy. He isn't a boy; he can't salve any hurt with a cheap cynicism that merely corrodes, and he isn't the sort who could forget. You embody, you realize, his ideal; and to a man like Chelling do you, can you ' understand what that means? Do you know what j it has already meant to him and to tho world? ' For it is you who, unknowing, have made him j you who gave the impulse that has been so Ifar-reachingly magnificent in its results. You were, you see, an artist of the beautiful unintentionally for without tho inspiration Chel ling received from the idea he has assumed of j ou ho would probably always have been the Cholling we first knew. Now he's the world's; and it's in recognition of this, of his worth to ' humanity at large, of the example and power of I his exquisite and wonderful personality and the message it is capable of sounding' for good and j truth that I appeal to you. It was piquant, wasn't it, to drag ft little Amer ican clergyman captive at your chariot wheels, and you amused yourself with the amusement j your foreign friends had in the process. Later, when you had to take him at the serious valua tion of the world at large, when it was present to you that he had a scope of goodness that had ; brought him reverence as well as fame you be came serious. To accept what he offered was a qustion no longer laughable. It was a triumph J to have achieved the distinction of being the woman Chelling cared for Chelling, the mystic, the philosopher; the clergyman whose singleness of purpose was recognized and acclaimed. That wonderful work of his In the northern wilds gave him fame but his life could bear any scrutiny. It was flawless and fine as a diamond. "This is Chelling; as you well know I've merely outlined. You can give in your mental appraise I ment the fuller color the toning of the shades, tho finer touches, that make him so wonderful ;J a figure of truth and sincerity in this age that so j' wonderfully lacks such attributes. f The pride of having inspired this develop- ;i ment of his ought to be enough for you even if ! you must keep tho secret of it always for your self alone. The reverse of the medal would be the loss of the things you've inspired; for if you fail him if he discovers, as he will discover, that you've merely tricked him, that you're, after all, dif- Clason's New" Right Up-to-date Industrial Map of Utah, - $3.50 Nevada & Southern California 3.50 Idaho, Wyo. or Colo.

If you really loved him, I can think of nothing finer than your renunciation of him for that reason giving him up that he might not lose the vital spark that has kindled all this the spark of his love for you. I am frank he would lose it; he couldn't lielp it, for you you haven't studied women of your own. type for nothing, and you will recognize the truth of what I say you couldn't keep up the fiction! Even if you loved him, you couldn't! and God knows I can't fancy your loving him! There couldn't be a stranger idea than that of your being in love with Cholling! Though I don't doubt the recognition of his r "odness could touch you to an emotional phase of feeling that would be as strong as It would be evanescent. Its pass ing, however, would be as certain as any of the inevitable things of life. You are not the type of woman who would merge her life In her husband's, and that is what Chelling anticipates what you have promised to do. It is an unwarranted draft on the future, and one you know you can't honor. . It wouldn't be so bad if you were marrying a man like me a man who knows you through and through who makes allowances, who wouldn't keep you straining at a leash of his own superlative goodness. You'd probably have made me a very dutiful wife because of the freedom I'd have allowed. But with Chelling it would be a bondage of the spirit. Don't deceive yourself .that a mftsk is easy to wear. It slips off and then there is demolition. I speak from experience, but with a differ ence. My wreckage has concerned myself alone, and I wasn't of much value even to that self. But Chellmg ! Don't let him go to wreck! I speak to the best In you in this effort of mine, ""o lose you now would be unhappiness to him, but nothing to what it would be later on. He can bear it now, if it is merely the loss of you personally for he can still keep can't you see? his belief, his faith in you which has become a beautiful possession to him; a part, and the best part, of his life. We are all of us such 'failures "that I suppose to see someone doing and being the things one could have wished to do one's self makes the longing all the greater to do tho best possible to keep him on the way. I don't know how you'll take this letter. Its honesty is as bare as a sword out of the scab bard but at least I beg you to believe It Is drawn in a worthy cause. And not altogether, Katherlne, against you! If I didn't think you'd read my appeal clearly enough to fully understand, I wouldn't make it. It's with me less a cowardice than a virtue, since, after all, I love you and always have For each man kills the thing he loves, 13y each let this be heard, The coward does It with a kiss, The bravo man with a sword. You'll never forgive me for this letter, but also you'll never, I think and feol sure, marry Chelling. After all, you see, I do expect the response. It's the answer of the you Chelling and I both idealized into existence, and it's from that sub liminal consciousness that I expect the pardon you won't, of your superficial self, over wish to givo. Faithfully yours, JOHN GREER. Town Topics.
