Dirt Hills country south of Regina,

CHAPTER Xxx.
The Hurricane Blast.

IL OR a moment that seemed
r. a moment of eternity she
lay on her bed staring into
the blank darkness The storm burst
with crashing uproar that brought
her to her feei with a Shrek. Her
giant tree creaked and strained under
the impact OF the terrific hurricane
blasts that came bowling through the
cleft like rout of shrieking fiends.
The peals of thunder merged into one
continuous roar, beneath which the
solid lodges Of rocks Jared and quiv-
cred. The sky was pail of black
clouds, meshed with a dazzling net
work of forked lightning.
The girl stood motionless, stunned
by the uproar, appalled, by the binding
glare of the thunderbolts; yet even
more fearful Of the figure which every
flash showed her still lurking beneath
the door. A gust-borne bough struck
with numbing force against her up
raised arm. But she took no heed. She

through the open entrance.
On a sudden the door shook free
from its props and whirled violently
around on its balance-bar There was
a shrek that pierced above the shrill-
ing OF the cyclone-a single human
shrek.
The girl sprang across the cave
The heavy door swished up before her
and down again. its lower edge all but
grazing her face. For a moment it
stopped in a vertical position and
hung quivering, like a beast about to
leap upon its prey. Too excited to
comprehend the danger of the act, the
girl sprang forward and shot one of
the thick bars into its socket.
A fierce gust leaped against the out.
er face of the door and thrust in upon
it, striving to burst it bodily from it's
bearings. The top and the free side
of the bottom bowed in. But the
branches were still green and tough,
the bamboo like whalebone and the
drunken creepers held the frame to
gether as though the joints were
dashed with wire rope. Failing to
smash in the elastic structure or to
snap the crossbar II were as If the
blast flung itself alternately against
the top and bottom in a fierce attempt
to again whirl the frame about. The
white glare streaming In through the
interstices showed the girl her oppor.

shot II into its socket as the lower
part OF the door gave back with the
shifting of the pressure to the top. 1t
was then a simple matter to slide the
remaining bars into the deep-sunk
holes. Within half a minute she had
made the door fast from the first bar

Blake studied a little. and tapped

Again Blake paused to consider.

One thing MORE must know

Blake Redeemed and dropped his
gaze. Did he go and tell you that?

Why did you build that door? Did

the huddled figure between them.
Blake frowned and hesitated; then
burst out almost angrily: We'll, you
know now he was a sneak: so it's not

Thank you" she said, and she
turned away quickly that she might
