opou tne poup anu elofy oi tuc Meadowthrope Hunt clubs annual horse show when Ralph Goring's dog cart drew up by the ring-side. The groom sprang to the horses head and Ralph and Satterlee leaped down. the former to join a group of horsemen who were inspecting the horses in the ring. and the latter to look for Grace Rawlings.
 Satterlee was stopping with Goring for the horse show at Oak Lodge. Ralph's jolly little huntington" as he liked to call it. The first time Sat terlee had visited Meadowthorpe he had felt keenly his lack Of horseman- ship, for Meadowthorpe is a sporting community. On this occasion. how ever, he felt more at ease, having taken a tedious course of lessons fin . New York riding school during the past winter.
 To tell the truth. he was horribly afraid of horses and hated the very sight of them. but Grace Rawlings. the Chicago heiress. was staying with the Bradburys-Bradbury was the M. F. Hand Satterlee's fortunes were at such a point that his only hope lay in helresses. Besides, in Rome one must do as the Romans do. and here at Meadowthorpe horse-show Satterlee's horsey attire was quite as pronounced, if not more so, as that of any of the other men.
 He wore a snuff-colored coat with a red waistcost. brown riding breech- es and leggings Indeed. he was very smartly turned out. At the last mo ment. however, he had welcomed the opportunity of driving over to the show with Goring in his dog-cart in stead of cantering over on a polo pony. the conveyance adopted by most of Goring's guests.
 Satterlee found Miss Rawlings oc- box seat of the Bradbury's drag, and was welcomel by her with a gracious smile.
 Good morning. MT. Satterlee," she cried; T am greatly fisttered that you should speak to me at all"
 'Flauered?'' repeated Satterlee. How could Hatter you? I don't un- derstand."
 Oh. expected to be entirely neg lected today. With such an impos- ing array of beautiful horses, a mere girl ought not to expect any attention at all"
 But I assure you, Miss Rawlings, that if all the horses in the world were assembled in one place could not see them while you were near"
 'Very nicely said. indeed" said Miss Rawlings, with Q smile. But. alas. l see that you are in your rid ing clothes, and you will probably leave me in five minutes to ride some ones horse in the saddle class"
 Satterlee smiled. Just to show you how wrong you are intend 10 remain here by you all day. had promised to ride one or two horses. but l viii cancel my engagements"
 Indeed, you must not do anything of the sort; l cannot allow it." in- sisted Miss Rawlings. She was visi- bly pleased, however, much to the dis gust of Harding. who had come up just in time to hear part of their conversation.
 Wentworth Harding was from Chi cago also, and was known to admire Miss Rawlings immensely He and Grace had known each other since they were both children. and it was not very strange, therefore, that he rather resented Satterlee's cool ap- propriation of the heiress
 ''I did not know you were such a
 
 mischievously. But Satteriee was not to be taken on his guard.
 "Oh, I ride a good deal" he said carelessly. But I don't care much for anything but 'cross-country' rid ing; it gets rather tiresome on the fat" He had made his blum and de termined to stand by it
 Harding did not know whether to be angry or amused. He knew that Satteriee could barely stick on . horse, and it made him rage inwardly to hear that enterprising youth boast of his prowess to Grace. He realized, however, that it would never do to ridicule Satteriee in her presence, for she seemed more than favorably fm- pressed with him, SO he choked his wrath and hastened on to where Ralph Gorirg and group of hls friends were standing To them he re- lated Satterlee's remarks. much to their delectation. Harding's wrath. however, was unabated. and he cast about in his mind for some means of foiIing the hateful rival who was. for the present. at least, triumphant over him: for Grace Rawlings had let him go without a word while she list- ened to S.Neriee's boosting. He and Grace were friends of long standing, but she did not encourage his love making. In his despair he sought Mrs. Bradbury. with whom he was great fayorite. and forthwith a plan of campaign was outlined between them for the discomfiture of Satterlee.
 Beatrice Halliday. who had once given Percivsl Satterlee a little lesson in horsemanship. was sought by the conspirators and urged to enter into their plot. They found her only too willing to do so. Her horse. Rocket. was entered in the class for hunters, and Rocket had carved out a name for himself in the Mesdowthorpe country. A few minutes later. just as Satteriee had excused himself and left Miss Rawlings, just long enough" as he explained, ito beg on riding those horses" Mrs. Bradbury and Beatrice, arm in arm, approached the Bradbury drag. upon which the heiress was sitting.
