What Was the Reason?

Arthur Hildreth had been travelling for
/ the greater part Of a year through Eng
land and on the continent, and, before
| settling down 10 business after his re-
turn, thought he would take run to
Denver to see his old college chunl. Harold
ArnSworth.
II was August, and New York was far
| too warm and desolate with all ones
friends away TO even think of staying
there, and the result of his soliloquy was
that a few days later he was speeding
across the country To the West Harold's
sister was a charming girl, and she had
a tender spot IN her heart for her broth
ers friend, but there was a widow in
the case, and ever since a certain night
when Mr.. Hildreth had paid Mrs. barley
marked attention Miss Grace Arnsworth
had decided to shield her secret and
smother 1t in it's infancy. The Arnsworths
were spending the summer at Glenwood
Springs, and Harold had been cultivating
the widows acquaintance at this famous
resort, and was just on the verge OF pro-
posing when Hildreth appeared on the
scene, Upon arriving at Denver and dis
covering his friends absence, Hildreth
wended his way towards that beautiful
spot in the Rockies. Arriving at the no
tel. he surprised his friend in his rom.
''Hildreth, 1 thought you were in Lon
dom
The spirit of restlessness." Hndreth
explained
Arnsworth had been making an elabo-
rate toilet. CHANGING at the clock. he
rose, picked up his hat and gloves.
Look here, Hildreth." he said, you'll
find the governor and Grace on the ter
race. Do you mind if L run away now?'
Being we'll acquainted with his plans
and thoroughly in sympathy with him,
Hildreth got up, and, laying his hand on
his shoulder, said: ''She is a woman in
thousand, Harold Au revoir, and good
luck"
Following him out of the hotel. Hildreth
strolled around until he espied Mr.. Arms
worth and his daughter. We'll. pom my
honor" said the old gentleman, and
smile dimpled around Miss Arnsworth's
mouth. After an explanation of his sud
den appearance and a few minutes cons
versation. Mr. Arnsworth pulled out his
watch.
I'm glad you came. Hildreth, as left
off last night in the midst of a little math-
ematical experiment with trente ct quar-
ante-and L thought that if you would
kindly look after Grace I'd"
Delighted. I trust the experiment will
be brought to a satisfactory conclusion"
As soon as he had taken his departure,
Hildreth glanced at Miss Arnsworth. She
was intently examining the handle of her
parasol. white suits her admirably he
thought. Perfect weather. he remark
ed, at length. She nodded in a preoccu-
pied manner.
Il have been wondering" she said, af-
ter a moment, why you came here"
Did you not hear me explain?'
She smiled.
60 yes; but"
"Surely nothing further is needed. The
attraction at Glenwood is world-famed."
She looked as if she doubted, so he
tried another tack.
well, the damp fogs of London are
rather trying, and thought the hot baths
would be beneficial"
Again she laughed.
