II should be sorry to thwart your

she said, with demure smile, after a
slight pause.
Thank you," he returned, gratefully;
and the ride was resumed.
81 am sorry that have to return the
handkerchief in such wrinkled condi'

after awhile; II should have had il
done up; but to send it to the laundry
with that monogram"
"Oh, don't speak of it. 1t is not of the

"Do you mean the monogram" she
flashed back, mischievously. 1T would

always sending me more"
Indeed" hint of cold surprise i'll
the tone. The truth was that with inn
pulsive argument quite feminine N its
tenor it had become settled in Dorothy's
mind that the exquisite stitchery on
that handkerchief betrayed a sweet
hearts gift. She would not like to con-
fess even to herself how often she had
smoothed out the crumpled silk upon
her lap. studying the interlaced letters
with dreamy questioning in her eyes.
Who was she, this other woman whose
fingers had wrought so patiently and
we'll? Surely she must have loved him;
and he-had he loved her?-a cavilling
sense of resentment growing in her
mind toward him, who had been SO
ready to sacrifice his lady's token 20
the service of another. And now 10
hear him thus refer to her devotion,
with that air of offhand Indifference,
filled the girls soul with vicarious
wrath. "I suppose she enjoys it," she
tartly observed.
'Oh, yes; she gives her life to me-
he said with happy complacency, quite
deaf to the sarcasm in his tone.

Her father was sub-postmaster of the
village, and the district she covered
consisted of the scattered hamlets ly-
ing between Wick and Bitton, on the
borders of Gloucester. Her daily round
was IL miles in all weathers, and in
cluded many steep hills. Although the
district is sparsely populated, the old
lady said she had never been robbed,
stopped or molested in any way. Her
travels, apart from her daily vista
tions, have never extended beyond Bath
or Bristol, and since 1892 she has lived
alone, those related to her being too
poor to render her any assistance. Not
withstanding the hardships she has
undergone. old Hannah Brewer has en-
joyed good health during her term oil
Office. Her absences from duty, she
said, had been very few indeed; and
now, at the advanced age of 72 years,
she has retired from the service of the
postmaster general on a small, but
well-deserved pension.

But | want you to have il back" she
nervously protested; land do you know,
IL has occurred to me-I want to ride
over to the little hut where we were in
the storm the other day; left my whip
there. Why can not deposit the hand
kerchief there for you? You would
have to go after it, to be sure; but, per-
haps-"
THAT would not matter" he eagerly
rejoined, intently regarding her. Was
she possibly relenting in respect to
meeting him again, for some reason pre-
fcrring that other rendezvous? when
will you goo"
Tomorrow morning, perhaps"
AT what time?"
"At just about the time when you
will be going to Tomtown-if l CO." she
rejoined, pointedly, plainly guessing
his thought. II will leave the handker-
chief in one of the boxes. fancy it
will be perfectly SAFE
"Very well-though I'm sorry to
trouble you," he responded, stiflly.
They went on a few steps in silence
until of sudden she stopped, with
suggestive glance ahead. They were
just at the turn of the road. 81 think

deprecatingly observed. Twill you go on

ruefully. "And if we are never to meet
again"
"Oh, l don't know why you should
say never" she hurriedly protested,
looking away.
"Unless you say it, Of course there is
not the slightest reason" he rejoined
quickly, his face Frightening. But
you tell me l must not come to meet
you"
"And what would you think of me if
l should tell you that you could?" she
cavalierly demanded.
shall tell you, honestly, Miss Mere
dith?"
"It does not in the least matter what
you would think" she cautiously de-
clared. Il have told you that 1 could
not think of such a thing"
And, of course, that settles it,"
"But we may meet by chance-the
usualway; who knows?" she murmured,
laughing shyly, hardly conscious of the
import of the words in the nervous en-
barrassment that was growing upon
her. 'But 1 cannot stand here prophe-
sying-I must 60"
"Must you?" he reluctantly returned,
his eyes smiling down into hers. "Well,
then, until we meet by chance-good-by,
Miss Meredith, and thank you so much
for the prophecy"

CHAPTER VIII.

The years that he had passed in Colora-
do had been so given TO unremitting toll
that Harvey Neil believed he had had
no time to think of women. In reality
there had been no particular woman for
him to think about. The rough life
OF ranches, the social stratum to which
his work in the smelter had brought
him, and the isolation Of the mine, had
alike been barren to such type of
womanhood as alone could appeal to a
taste fastidious by nature and further
refined by all the training and tradi-
ton of his home life. Like any nor
mally minded man, to love and be loved
was a paramount need OF his being, n
need fully realized in his heart; but to
give himself blindly to any passion for
him would have been impossible. He
must look up and not down in his love.
And so he had waited on, heart-free,
beyond his both birthday, so philosph-
ical under loves tarrying that to him
self he had come TO profess a whimsical
belief that fate had willed he should die
a bachelor, scarce conscious with what
growing force the burden of his lonely
life weighed upon his spirit, how in
sistently his heart hungered for the
solace andStreet companionship OF the
not impo Ne she who had vaguely
figured iu' dreams.
But since his encounter with Doro-
thy Meredith in the rain he had found
a great deal of time to think of women,
and of the one whom his reason told
him he would far better forget, his
enemy's pretty daughter. The episode
at the worlds fair had made deep
impression upon him. For many days
he had recalled her looks, her ways,
her voice and smile, tantalized by long
ing to meet her again; but, then, man
like, giving up all idea that the wish
could ever be realized, and his mind
further occupied by the troubles be-
tween the mines, which had come upon
him not long after, he had almost for
gotten the fancy altogether, until with
shock he recognized her as she
passed in at the door of the Windy
Gulch hotel one day and realized thnt
she was Col. Meredith's daughter. The
discovery seemed effectually to dispel
all the lingering glamour of the worlds
fair meeting; he had no smallest wish
to recall himself 10 her memory. Al
most, he could fancy, so keen was his
dislike of Col. Meredith that he could
read somewhat of her fathers charar-
ter in her face; while certain he was
that she was by no means so pretty as
he had supposed her that other time
when he had seen her in the twilight.
And then. os though in mockery of his
self-delusion, fate had brought about
the encounter in tie rain, when. in her
appealing helple,sness and the frank
delight with which she had recognized
him, she had seemed ten times more
winsome tifan she had been before;
while tbs after meeting in the Tom
town road, when. prepared for cold re-
buff. she had surprised him with sweet
gentieness, had effectually completed
