IN TWO PARTS—PART TWO THE STORY SO FAR It was Christmas in Switzerland. Two trainmen were discussing an accident of two years ago in which young Roger Monroe had suffered a broken leg and his lady friend, Miss Noel Leonard, bad been rendered unconscious, and from which state of coma the girl had never recovered. At the time of this discussion, this Roger Monroe arrives at the chalet of the Leonard's to spend Christmas with his fiancee. He had been loyal to her all through these two years. He is invited to a sleighing party, in which "Blonde" Leonard, a sister of Noel's is minorly in jured. In the meantime, and while the party is in progress, Noel awakens from her coma. And now the story— x. But Noel had not wakened up. Miss Leonard, still serenely matter-of fact, told Roger the doctor bad said Noel might possibly be going to wake up that night. "Twice today she has turned over. Once—it was about four o'clock this after noon—her eyelashes fluttered. And Just be fore 1 called the doctor she said some thing, as if she were talking in her sleep. I am almost certain, dear Roger, that I caught your name. The doctor thought I had better send for you, so that you might be at hand immediately she asked for you, if—if—This is the nearest there's been. Wonderful, if-" "O! Wonderful," produced poor Roger, woodenly. "Thank you for sending for me at once." He prepared to watch through the hours of that most miserable Christmas night. "Take this comfortable chair. You don't mind the window being open just a couple of inches, do you, Roger? She always has the window open. Will you smoke?" "No, thank you. Will you?" "Not tonight. 1 often do have a cigaret— Noel used to. Look," she added, without al teration in tone. Roger had not moved his eyes from the sleeping face. He had seen the fluttering of the thick lashes. "That's the third time today, Roger. Now —will she?" More moments of tense waiting. Roger found himself wondering how he would have felt, had he still loved the girl who lay unconscious on that bed, where she had lain two years ago? He tried to call back again some memory of the deep and tender affection which he had had for her. Useless. One might as well, he thought, try to see by the light of a candle which has been blown out. Noel slept. After an hour, Roger got up, went to the window, stared into the Swiss night that is never dark. Clusters of lights twinkled and glowed over the snows; there was a Jingling of sleigh bells; dancers from the hotel getting back to their chalets. Clearly, he heard a gay call of, or rather, "Good morning! Christmas day. Merry Christ mas !" D "I shall hate Christmas as long as i live, thought Blonde's lover. Then he turned. "What did you say, Miss Leonard ?" "I didn't speak," said Miss Leonard, with hardly a tremor. "Noel spoke-" From the bed came a rustle of a hand against a silk covered down quilt—Then, as they held their breath, they saw Noel's lashes flutter. They lifted ; and, for the first time in twenty-four months, the light of the room was reflected in *the bright eyes of Noel Leonard, awake, at last. Roger could not speak or move. Noel's Aunt Anne, with serenest coolness, replied, "Noel! Well, Noel, have you had a nice sleep, dear" The quickness of her to take Noel's reply, in the drowsy soft voice that had not sounded, except as a sleeping mur CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENTS ANIMAL BAIT SURE Method for $1, to bring raccoon from tree, without cutting, shooting or climbing.

"I'm so hungry." Out of nowhere, it appeared. Miss Leon ard produced hot Bovril, newly made toast. The well timed gesture of the born nurse brought Roger to her side, put into his hands the cup and spoon. "You give it to her, will you, Roger?" Noel sipped, nibbled ; stared at the young man, drawn and pale, in evening dress, at her bedside. "Roger!" "Yes ,Noel." (He had thought, "When 1 hear Noel's voice again. It'll bring it all back. The first word will bring back my old feeling for her. Her voice used to thrill through strings in me." She spoke, and the string remained unstirred.) "What's happened, Roger? Am I ill? I don't feel ill. How funny. What happened. Aunt Anne?" "Just an accident, dear. It's all over now. You're ever so well." "I can't remember any accident," said Noel softly. She tried to sit up. Fell back. Pierced by her weakness, Roger slipped a strong arm about her. Miss Leonard, mur muring something about the doctor's think ing this was splendid, slipped out to the telephone. XI. Noel was gazing fixedly into the eyes of her betrothed. Roger's troubled eyes gazed back. Why—why could he not call up the old magic, that used to lock bis eyes into hers? Leaning back on his arm, she asked, "How long have l been asleep?" "A long time, Noel, a long time. I don't really know-" She got something out of the tone. She said, "I want you to tell me how long I've been asleep since this accident. When was it? Not yesterday?" "No! O, no. Not yesterday." "Longer?" As she moved her head, a long brown tress fell across her shoulder. "Roger! Why, Roger! Look at my hair! My hair was short, bobbed ! It takes hair two years to grow. Have I been asleep two years?" "You'll be all right now, Noel." (Good Lord, why doesn't Miss Leonard come back? How frightful if Noel were to go off again, into a faint, or back into that trance! The embryo dramatist in him sketched lightning swift, the reentrance of that ham pink Swiss doctor, reentering to find Noel Leonard sunk back again upon those pillows. Sketched Miss Leonard's turn to him. "Doctor, she's asleep again." Gave the stoop of the doctor's silver head over Noel's breast- the flight of his fingers to Noel's wrist, the raising of himself, the shake of his head, the compassionate "This time, she is not asleep; she is dead.") The word, even imagin' d, chilled him to his stricken heart. Anxiously, he offered her Bovril, broke off more toast for her to nibble. In a stronger voice she said, "I see. I've been asleep. O, yes. And—1 remember. Dreaming. My dream! Roger!" "What? My poor child "Shall I tell you what I dreamt? I saw you, standing in the snow, by a pine tree. I saw you so clearly, in your leather coat and a new variegated sort .of jumper. You Roger. You'd got your arms round a girl were—Yes! Kissing somebody. Not me. in white—wtyite furs. You were kissing her." M "What on earth," began Roger. "You have fallen in love with somebody, said Noel Leonard, convinced. "It must have happened, or I could not have seen it. It woke me—It was not a dream, Roger. I did see it, then? It's trùe?" What was he to do or say? What fib would hold water? He said nothing. He turned his head aside. Before he could turn it again, be heard a sound that had once seemed to him the prettiest In the world— • • Noel's laughter. "Roger!" she laughed. "Is this really, really true? Two years have gone by and I have been asleep all the time and you have fallen In love with somebody else, and was his turn to be dreaming, for she wound up her speech with a laughing, I He wondered himself, whether it EARLY EXPLORER OF PARK IS DEAD CHARLES W. COOK PASSES AT WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS Came to Montana in 1863 and Six Years Later Made Trip into Yel lowstone Park Area to Officially Record Facts About Wonderland Charles W. Cook, aged 87, one of Mon tana's pioneers and historians, died at his home in White Sulphur Springs fol lowing a two week's illness. Funeral serv ices were conducted by the White Sul phur Springs Masonic lodge. Charles W. Cook, to whom Montana owes much for the development of the sheep raising industry, was born in Unity, Waldo county, Maine, February 24, 1839, and there resided until the age of 21 when he went to Providence, R. I., to attend college. Three years after he came to Montana. Mr. Cook was a member of the first party which entered the Yellowstone country for the purpose of officially recording facts concerning the 'Wonderland. In 1860, Mr. Cook, with David Folsom and William Peterson, made a trip through the park and came back ready to verify many of the mcj W* 8 <■ '■ f'* m - ■>< < , 1 « - 9 WM : : ■ ms. ■ Mi ■ . ■ • C.

In volume seven of "Contributions to the Montana Historical Society," Wyllys Hedges, son of Cornelius Hedges, says : "In 1869 Cornelias Hedges' friends and personal acquaintances, Charles W. Cook and David B. Folsom, both New Englanders, and men of education, went into the Yellowstone country to look it over generally, and es pecially to satisfy themselves of the au thenticity of the many reports and tradi tions concerning the natural wonders said to exist there. Messieurs Cook and Folsom were of well known character at home, needing no endorsement. While they did not see nearly ail the vast accumulation of cariosities and natural wonders so lavishly and compactly stored there, they did see enough to satisfy themselves that the vague (?) reports were, In this instance, far below reality. From copions notes, they tried to make known to the world et large some of the unusual things to be found there. But their manuscript was returned several times by eastern magaalne pub lishers. We have heard them say that Lip pincott returned the same with explanation that their publication 'did not deal in fiction'."

What could be do but stare stupidly at. her? Following that look with stupider, "Don't you want to?" "I would shake my bead, If it didn't somehow feel so silly and weak. It doesn't matter now, though, saying that I didn't want to, except for perhaps a minute at the very beginning. You remember that when you proposed to me, I owned up to you I had been in love with a man, but that he didn't care for me? "Yes, you said that there'd been some thing—but that was ove "Roger, a week after we were engaged that man wired, telling me by what boat he was coming home from India. I wrote to the steamer to tell him I expected him to call. I thought if he came he might see —he never came. So I went on being en gaged because I thought there was nothing else for it. . . . You remember that afternoon we were to go out skiing— yesterday afternoon—no. Anyhow, it was Christmas eve; you called for me. Yon called up the stairs to this room, 'Noel!' I thought, 'How could I bear to spend my life with this perfect dear?' So-" Roger interrupted her. Even an intelli gent man, when overstrained, can be un speakably obtuse. Roger actually stumbled upon the word "generosity." "You think I'm making it up?" Noel cried, exasperated. "Wasn't I writing to you yesterday—no, that afternoon ? That moment when you called up. I knew I should never be able to say it. I wrete the note. I put it into an envelope. I hadn't time to address it. I hid it away quickly— there, look; there!" She pointed at the "new" novel, laid where she had put it down on the top of her writing table. "Find it!" an even •« ti Between those pages he found, and read the note in which Noel broke off their engagement. There w^s no standing up against the date of two Christmases ago. "Noel!" he said. "Noel, Noel, my dear—" and kissed her hand in self-abasement. "I don't know what to say-" "You might," Noel murmured briefly and She shyly, "tell me what happened t mentioned his name. It was that of the quiet, one armed sol dier who had traveled up in the train with the undergraduates. The man who always looked on. "He's here, my dear," Roger said, tense ly. "I always wondered why he came here so often, when he's not particularly keen on sports. He wanders about like a dog without a master; hé talks to anybody who will talk about you. . . . You'll see, Noel-" XII. And, when the doctor, hastening In, had given it as his opinion that all was well, that there appeared to be no danger, and that in his opinion nothing need prevent the young lady from spending Christmas day as a normal convalescent, Roger sped down to the telephone. Feverishly, he got the hotel number. Certainly the clientele were still dancing. Certainly Miss Blonde Leonard and her family were still up—and that major—that one armed officer—yes. He was there. "Then," called Roger Monroe, babbling as if light headed, "a perfectly respectable sickroom will presently look like a night club. What with evening dress, and cham pagne, and ham and eggs-" "I don't get you, monsieur," called back the Swiss conoierge, in his best American. "Then send me Miss Blonde Leonard, and Mr. Clive. And the major. Ask them all to come up at once, please, to Miss I<eonard's chalet, to celebrate the awakening of Miss Noel Leonard!"

STATESECRETARY DUE FOR 'PROBE' SENATOR KANE IS INTERESTED IN ADVERTISING EXPENSES Claims Notices of Proposed Amend ments to Constitution Are Handled as Patronage by Stewart and that Papers Are Favored in Some Cases (By Onr Helena Correspondent) Distribution by Secretary of State C. T. Stewart of patronage in publishing notices of proposed amendments to the constitution of the state are to be in vestigated by the senate under a motion proposed by Senator Tom Kane, of Ravalli county and adopted by that body. Senator Kane's motion was to the effect that the state accountant be called upon for a statement showing the cost of the publication of notices of constitutional amendments voted upon at the general elections of 1924 and 1926. Kane, in explaining the purpose of the motion, said the matter would be covered later in the discussions following the pre sentation of the report of the accountant, but he informed the senate that it ap peared that while in some counties the notices of these constitutional amend ments had been published In but one news paper of the county, they had appeared in some counties in as high ns five news papers and that the expense of these publi cations, supposed to be uniform, had ranged from as low as $200 in some counties to as high as 12,200 in others. Will Revive Gilt Edge Mine A revival of mining in the once famous Gilt Edge district, where John A. Drake, in earlier days, took out millions in gold, is foreseen in recent developments. The litigation which has held the old Mam moth group, owned by the Judith Basin Consolidated Mining company, inactive for many years, has at last been cleared up. The property has been leased to a group of Montana men with ample means to develop it. Recently truckloads of supplied were started out there with a force of men to begin operations. It is planned to erect a small mill in the early spring. Large Transformer Added A new 1,000-kilowatt transformer of 1,306 horse power has been installed at the power plant of the Missoula Service com pany. This doubles the former power of the plant here and will enable it to draw on the plant of the Montana Power com pany at Thompson Falls whenever it be comes necessary.
