candle-light, and the heartening
warmth of the Franklin stove near
her, may have suggested visions to
Peggy as she inquired OF her friends,
What must do with this money!"
"'Sieur Abe has kept it safe," sug-
:gested Antywine.
"There is no one trustier!" spoke
Ann.
will you keep it for me, Mr.. Lin
coln?"
Il am not good money-getter," he
laughed, "and l doubt if l am good
money-keeper. The only thing l
could do would be to carry it around
for You and guarantee it shouldn't fail
into worse hands,"
The sweetheart knows you are the
strongest man in New Salem," said
Antywine, resting his cheek upon his
hand and lifting eyes of confidence to
his elder.
But haven't measured with Clary's
Grove yet"
"Antywine and both know" said
Peggy, how everybody looks up to
you. We could not keep it ourselves
as well as you could do it for us, Mr..
Lincoln"
Ann stretched out one slim, long
fingered hand to caress Peggy's cheek.
We'll, children, I'm of age, and Ann
is Is. l reckon We'll have to father
and mother you. Do you know how
much money you have in this bank OF
Shickshack's, Peggy"
81 DON'T
DO you know, Antywine?"
ME? No. l have never inquire
and Shickshack have not sho' me-"
IF the trust is to be put into my
hands must know the amount"
Lincoln united the leather cord which
bound the snakes neck, and shook II
by the tail. Out gushed all the yellow
pieces with the ring of gold upon the
table; Spanish doubloons and French
louis, which cost him some trouble tt
calculate. He set them in cylindrical
piles, row after row. Wood snapped il
the open Franklin stove, and no Other
sound could be heard in the room but
the liquid clink of gold Ann, Peggy
and Antywine watched the counting.
Viane Rutledge, looking through the
door at the silent company, beckoneG
little Jane to stare at such amazina
wealth.
Whose is it?" whispered Jane.
Peggy Shickshack's, of course
Where would Antywine La Chance, OF

old Indian must have been a miser
But l wouldn't be her-and Spaniar(
for all her money"
1.-TWO thousand and fifty dollars,
announced Lincoln. He began to re-
turn the gold to it's pouch.
1.-TWO thousand dollars is large
amount" said Ann.
Gam very rich?" inquired Peggy
well, one hundred dollars will buy
eighty acres of land, or two horses

sidering the times and the country,

Must buy sixteen hundred acres
of land?"
Lincoln's eyes twinkled, losing for a
moment their usual expression of dark
blue wistf,hness. He was not much
older than the Canadian boy who
venerated him as an oracle, but he
had already begun to guide the desti-
MES of others.
You'd better let your husband de-
eide that matter when you are older"
he answered, and while the words were
being spoken, Pedro Lorimer entered
the tavern in whirl of winter air.
He closed the outer door, made his
salutations with grace, and approached
the table where the money counters
sat. Lincoln deliberately filled the
snake skin, tied it's neck shut, and sat
with it in his large hands, pleasantly
returning the visitors greeting. The
tavern was free to all corners. Yet
Antywine at once stood up in front Of
Peggy, his blond head towering above
the swart arrival.
"What you do here, Ell? You drive
Shicllshack around, SO he die in the
drift! When I see you to-day think
l will throw you in the street! Go off

Lorimer, II rode here through very
biting cold to see my young cousin.

| 'Tell him I won't go with him,
Antywine," said Peggy.
"The gentleman must understand"
spoke Lincoln, chat he cannot force
! guardianship on a girl of Peggy's age
except by kidnapping. We folks in New
Salem have not measured ourselves
with the great people in the world.

The foreigners olive skin, chilled
by the cold from which he had just
entered, took a swift greenish pallor.
He stepped forward Kissing. and
, snapped his fingers in Lincoln's face.
Antywine was upon him like tiger
dragging him to the door, throwing
him out into the snow, and shooting
| the bolt behind him.
"Goody!" Peggy exclaimed with pas
sionate approval.
Ann put her hands to her eyes and
Lincoln laughed.
