we heard the tinkle of plates and bot
ties and the low hum of Barris' musi-

Half an hour later they came out
again, saluted Pierpont and me, and
galloped away in the direction of
the Canadian frontier. Ten minutes
passed, and, as Barris did not appear,
We rose and went into the house, to
find him. He was sitting silently be-
fore the table, watching the small
golden globe, now glowing with scar

coal. Hewlett, mouth ajar and eyes
starting from the sockets, stood petri.

Are you coming?" asked Pierpont, a
little startled. Barris did not answer

AT two o'clock that afternoon, at
Barris' suggestion, we gave up the
search for the fountain in the glade
and cut across the forest to the spin
ney where David and Hewlett were
waiting with our guns and the three
dogs.
Pierpont guyed me numerically
about the "dream-lady," as he called
her, and, but for the significant coin
cidence of Ysonde's and Barris' ques-
tions concerning the white scar on
my forehead, / should long ago have
been perfectly persuaded that I had
dreamed the whole thing. AS it was,
l had no explanation to offer. We
had not been able to find the glade
although so times I came to land
marks which convinced me that we
were just about to enter it. Barris
was quiet, scarcely uttering a word to
either OF. us during the entire search.
/ had never before seen him depressed
in spirits. However, when we came
in sight of the spinney where a cold
bit of grouse and bottle of Burgundy
awaited each. Barris seemed to recov-
er his habitual good humor.

Pierpont, raising his glass and stand.

he bade Pierpont drink his wine with

mon obeyed with a childish confidence
which almost made Barris smile.
