 Several minutes passed. Once she heard Der groom speak to the horses. though she could net see him. but the charm cf the place held her. She raised Der eyes from the tumbling water be- fore her and loekel of through the maple tangle Then she drew back quickly and claspei her riding cro, tightly. Some one bad paused at the farther edge of the maple brake and dismounted, as she had. for more in- innate enjoyment of the place. IL was John Armitage. tapping his riding boot Idly with his crop as he leaned against tree and viewed the miniature valley.
 He was little below her. so that she saw him quite distinctly and caught glimpse of bis horse paving. with arched neck. in the hridle path behind him. She had no wish to meet him there and turned to steal back to her horse when movement In the naples below caught her eye. She paused. fascinated and alarmed by the cautious stir of the undergrowth

 "No; it was nothing. Thomas-noth- ing at all." and she mounted and turn ed toward home.
 Her heart was still pounding with excitement, and she walked her horse to gain composure. Twice, in circum- stances most unusual and disquieting. she had witnessed an attack on John Arnitage by an unknown enemy. She recalled now certain pathos of his figure as she hrst saw him leaning against the tree watching the tur- bulent little stream, and she was im- patient to find how her sympathy went out 10 him. 1t made no difference who John Armitage was; his enemy was a GOV ard, and the horror of such men, ace to mans life appalled, her. She passed a mounted policeman. who rec ognized her and raised his hand in salute, but the idea of reporting the strange affair In the strip of woodland occurred to her only to be dismissed. She felt that here was an ugly busi- ness that was not within the grasp of a park patrolman. and. moreover. John Armitage was entitled to pursue his own course in matters that touched his life 90 closely. The thought of him reassured her. He was no simple boy to suffer such attacks to pass un- challenged, and 70. dIsmisslng him. shs raised her head and saw him gaIlop forth from . bypath and rein his horse beside her.
 "Miss Claiborne!"
 The suppressed feeling h his tone made the moment tense, and she saw that his lips trembled- It was . situa- tioo that must have its quick relief. Q she said instantly in . mockery of his own tone:
 "Mr. Armitager' shs laughed. T am almost caught in the dark. The Embellishments Of spring have beguiled me-"
 He looked at her with . quick scru- tiny. It did not seem possible that this could be the girl who had called to him in warning scarce five minutes be- fore, but he knew it had been she. He would have known her voice any where in the world They rode silent beside the creek. which was like . laughing companion seeking to mock them into a cheerier mood At an opening through the hills they saw the western horizon agiow In tints of lem on deeping into gold and purple Save for the riot of the brook the world was at peace She met his eyes for an h. stanf. and their gravity and the firm lines En which bis lips were set showed that the shock of his encounter had not yet passed

The smooth golden surface gIeamed in the light. the helmet in blue and the white falcon flashed in Armitage's eyes. The meeting was c.earIy by intention. and a slight smile played about Chauvenet's lips in his enjoyment of the situation.
