His blood had stirred quickly at the
mention of the Robes rancho, but the
rest of Susy's speech was too much in
the vein of her old extravaganza to
touch him seriously.
He found himself only considering
how strange it was that the old petu-
lance and impulsiveness of her girlhood
was actually bringing back with it her
pink cheeks and brilliant eyes.
You surely didn't ask Jim TO bring

'No-you don't understand her!" re-

everybody knows-that your wife is

I've only got to say the word-or send
that man Jim to say the word-to have

at Robes rancho, and shut up in Fort

Still with the pink glowing N her
rounding cheek, and eyes swapping like
splintered sapphires, she rose to her
feet, with her pretty shoulders lifted,
her small hands and white teeth both
lightly clenched, and took step to-
wards him.
Even in her attitude there was reE,-
iniscence of her willful childhood, al
though still blended with the provin-
