Suddenly he turned pale.
''How far's that fellow behind, Lil?''
he asked, without moving his head.

around. They has entered the narrow

were twenty feet above the level of the
ice. Straight ahead was thin, steely-

''No, Jasper, deserve it. Go on, and

kissed him.

to pull steadily on the old black.
Lii held tight to the side of the
sleigh in an agony Of grief. She didn't
mind being drowned if only Jasper for
gave her miserable coquetry. Jasper
looked almost serious as she glanced up
in his face for the last time. Then he
lifted the black to the leap, gave one
cruel slash with the whip, there was
crash of breaking ice as the sleigh
struck on the other side, a stagger
they were over and twenty yards be-
yond the widening chasm, with the
frightened cashier pulling up on its
brink.

she found herself in the Manse parlor

crawled lazily back to the Four Corners

met the cashier, his chestnut nearly
foundered, and scarce able to stand.
