Since my thanks are a burden to you,
the least l can do is to take myself out
of your life and beg pardon for having
entered it. Had [ attended to my duties
that night of the fire, you would not have
been troubled by me. | stayed because
you were beautiful, and that is the whole
truth. 1t is not the first time Il man has
neglected his duties for a woman, and the
pain L now suffer in giving up all hope
of meeting you again Is a just punishment
for my presumption. | am sorry to go
without saying goodby to Louis, but it is
best. | know you do not like his growing
regard for me, and you are quite right.
Louis came to her door and cried
out dolefully, Ann, Rob has gone
away!'
81 know ii. Come ill.,"
He entered with troubled, fearful
face and in deeply aggrieved tone said:
"He went without saying goodby. l
want to go hunt him and bring him
back, but Uncle Don says that we
must respect his wish. All the same,
l like him, and | want him back. No,
1 don't-I want to go with him."
"And leave me?'
His resentment, long s~moldering,
burst forth: Yes, | would! Don't you
suppose | have seen how you treated
him? You think because you're from
New York you can snub a man like
Rob, but you're not up to him. You're
not half as good as he is"
Ann listened in establishment to this
outburst from her brother and then
cuttingly remarked:
zone would think | had taken away
some %plaything of yours. Go out of my
room and stay out till you car treat
me with respect
I'm going, and you'll never see me
again. I'm going to follow Rob. |
don't care what you say With this
defiant cry he rushed from the room.
A keen ache of jealousy ran through
the proud girls heart. The IN soul of
vital interest in her life, her sweet little
brother, seemed about to pass from her
hands to that of an %adventurer. Her
resentment of his influence blazed hot
within her. I will defeat him with his
w weapons" she said. 81 will win

But Louis did not return to lunch,
and she was greatly troubled. He did
not appear at dinner, and at last, open
ly alarmed, Ann told Mrs. Barnett of
Louis bitter accusation and of his
threat that he would never return.
Don't worry. Don will find him.
He'll get tired of it and come back.
These boyish tantrums don't last"
at scares me to think of that poor,
innocent lad spending the night alone
in a big, wicked western city. l wish
Don would hurry home. Can't l go
down to his Officer"
"Oh, no; there's no need of your
going. I'll telephone him at once"
When Barnett returned, Ann, white
with anxiety, poured out her story. He
comforted her by saying: You take it
too seriously. | will notify the police at
Cinnabar and Mogalyon. They'll locate
him in an hour"
They did not find him, and Ann pass
ed a miserable night, imagining all
sorts of Ill adventures into which
Louis might be led, and would have
accompanied Barnett on his quest next
day but for his firm command: Don't
be absurd. l can find him alone much

quicker"
Bring him back If you have to use
force,' she cried. And then. with n
knowledge Of Raymond's power. she
added: IF you find Mr.. Raymond
please tell him to send laddie home.
Say | wish it,"
With these words in his ear Barnett
took his way to his Office. At leach he
was more concerned. Hes not il.

towns He may have gone back TO
the ranch. I will wire out there this
afternoon. Did he have any money?'
Yes. l had just given him his al
lowance. He must have had nearly
$500"
Don whistled. "a smart boy can
hide out a good while on that. How
ever, he'll come back when his pet
wears Off"
Even though Raymond had taken
himself bodily out of her life, his
power to disturb and thwart AIMS
will remained. She began to fear him
a little. lie was bigger. more power
full. than she had thought him. Could
she have found him in the days which
folloWed--3ys of increasing Unrest
and anxiety-she would have humbly
asked him to find the runaway and

ing on new chances. l load meself up

and me hands fall empty"
There was something winning in the
humorous glance of his big, gray eyes,
and Raymond sat with him long. His
vast experience, his indomitable good
nature, his physical pride, all appealed
to the rancher with such power that he
left him with a distinct exaltation.
Here Is the nan to help me make my
fortune, and I q be guide to him."
he added. and he went to sleep that
night with greater confidence in his
future than at any time since taking
Barnett's ranch. He set his teeth hard
in the determination to win, and though
he had put Ann quite out of his plans
for the future, she remained IN inspira-
ton and a lure.
His feeling of confidence in Kelly
was deepened by his ride with him
text day.
Turning from the gulch road, Kelly
led the way up the side Of Pine noun
tain, along a trail which braided itself
upon a grassy slope like a purple
brown ribbon. The air was keen, the
sky a feckless blue hemisphere. Ray
mond's blood leaped with the joy of it
and with a sense that his feet were set
at last on the road to fortune.

ward course, while others of their kind,
piled high with lumber and machinery,
crawled slowly up the curving roads.
On every side men were tunneling
into the hillsides, trenching in gullies
and toiling at windlasses whose joints
cried out resoundingly as the heavy
ore boxes rose. The whole scene set
forth buoyant activity and hope. Each
man had either struck ore or hoped to
do SO at any moment.
Here and there on the slope a tall
and shapeless shaft house rose, with
heaps of orange and blue gray refuse
rock close beside it. The whole camp
was as yet d~isorganized, formless and
debatable. Not one in a hundred of the
mines was a paying property; all the
others were mere prospects.
