CHAPTER v.
Whose Was the peed2

Dolores was waiting for something
to happen. A vague terror possessed
her; she could not have defined II
had she tried; she did not try. Young
Green's face seemed to haunt her.
She watched her father continually
while he was in the house, for a sort
OF fascination was upon her, and she
could not keep her eyes from his face.
She could not explain the terror
that possessed her, but her whole
listless nature was aroused. She was
different, and her life was somehow
different, she knew not how.
The slow days passed, 1t seemed to
her, with even more slowness than
was their wont. Every morning the
red sun arose out of a veil of haze
from the mountain beyond the val
ley; every evening he sank behind
the gray peaks in the west.
Nothing happened after all; life
was stagnant; the sun arose and set /;
the haze hung more dense and thick
over the mountain peaks. No rain
fell; nothing happened Nothing han
pened until
One day the rumor noated across
the mountain that young Green's
mare, one Of the choicest breed in the
country, valued at what seemed to
the simple villagers a fabulous sum.

cred the morning after she was shod

"Her right shoe this time. Come,
Bess; come, my grill"
There was a sudden, sullen glow on
Johnson's face as he took the bellows
and blew the fire into a fierce blaze.
He laid the iron on the fire and rails

Young Green began to talk. He
spoke of the dry weather and the hard
roads he told the news Of the town
and of the trial that was to come off
of notorious horse thief who had
been caught attempting to steal Bess.
The blacksmith listened in sullen
silence between the blows Of the ham
mer.

and went up to the house for drink.
Johnson was not the only silent one
that day. His daughter listened mute

taken her? Was she incapable of the
thought he believed she possessed?
Had she not, after all, the ambition
to be more than an untaught village
girl? Did her thought end with the
blue line, of the mountains and the
hamlets scattered along their sides ?
Dolores disappointed him; he
thought her so much better than she
had proved herself, and yet under it
all there was sting in the thought
which he did not understand, student
of character as he was.
"She was positively stupid" he said
regretfully. yet her face shows such
possibilities"
He was walking slowly down the
narrow path 10 the shop, his hands
clasped behind him, his fair head
bent slightly forward. Dolores was
watching him, but he did not know It,
He never guessed of the wistful
brown eyes following him down the

snappish, but when he mounted and
rode out of the shop she grew gentle
again. AS he rode away Johnson
called after him that she must have
gone some distance without her shoe,
for her foot was tender.
Dolores watched him with her far
seeing eyes as he rode up the noun
tain, then her gaze went down to the
shop. Her father was standing in the
doorway also watching the rider. He
had forgotten his pipe; his face in the
hazy sunlight was full of sullen
hatred, and he looked capable of
committing almost any act. His NUT
tered threat OF the previous evening
returned to her clearly and distinctly.
Her eyes widened with nameless fear
She looked up the mountain again to
where the black mare was bearing
her rider proudly along the yellow
thread of road; she was no longer
listless; her face was white, her lips
quivering with excitement.

CHAPTER IIl-Continued.
That night his comrades at the tav-

ed him with It sthey laughed at the
girl They did not like her--not one
Of them. NarroY natures dislike and
distrust that which they cannot under
,tand. Young Green also had aroused
his fears. Green had an education;
he had asked where the girl obtained
her education, therefore she must
have an education. Tonight he was
assured OF this.
He Kicked the book contemptuous-
ly, and muttered, under his breath, an
oath against young Green. II ever he
came there again 1t would be a sorry
day for him.
Dolores said nothing.
A sudden frenzy seized him. He
stopped and snatched the book from
the ground. It was an old astronomy
She had been reading the book, for
she preferred it to any of her moth
er's books, and when young Green
saw 1t the day he was there he was
much surprised, and promised to take
he went that way.
She thanked him. and it was the
first time she had thanked any one
since Betsy Glenn died. That was
two weeks before, and he had not
come again as he said he would, but
she watched for him. feeling sure that
he would keep his promise to her, feel
ing strangely glad when she thought
OF him. She had perfect faith in him.
Her fathers face was lurid as he
snatched the book from the ground.
His small eyes, close set, were full
of brute cruelty; the veins of his
forehead we're swollen. In his hands,
used to welding the heavy hammer,
the book was a toy; his fingers
closed over it, and in an instant it
lay in shreds at her feet.
For a moment she did not compre-
bend what had been done; she looked
from the book to him and back again.
Then she arose; her face was white,
and her eyes flashed. She looked at
him, and he covered before her. She
was tail and stately; he had never be-
fore appreciated her dignity. Now he
appreciated 1t to the full. The book
was the dearest thing in the world to
her; he could have wounded her in
no other way.
Mechanically he gathered up the
scattered fragments and as she held
out her hand for them he gave them
10 her without word, without even
g1ancing at her. For the time she
was more than his daughter; her
eyes were on his face, and her spirit
ruled his. Then they strayed away
to the mountain top yelled in haze.
The fire died out of her eyes; her
hands. mechanically holding the torn
leaves of her book, fell listlessly at
her side; her shadow lay long and
dark behind her
There was sense Of mystery about
her which her father could not under
stand he shrank from 1t and from
her. and passed away up the dark
