in bitter taunt.
Then Enid Maitland found it in her
heart to urge NeWbold to kill him
where he stood, but she had no time
il she could have carried out her de-
sign, for Newbold flung the weapon
from him and the next moment the
two men leaped upon each other,

like savage beasts, each seeking to

But she was keen enough to see that
the first recognition would be in
evitable; she even admitted the fact
that Armstrong would probably pre-
cipitate it himself. Well, no human
soul, not even their writer, knew that
she had destroyed them, she had de-
termined to do so at the first convent
ent opportunity. Before that, however.
she intended to show them not to New
bold but to Armstrong, to disclose his
perfldy, to convict him Of the false
hood he had told her and to justify
herself even In his eyes for the action
she had taken.
Mingled with all these quick refiec-
lions was a deadly fear. She was
quick to perceive the hatred Arm
strong bore on the one hand because
of the old love affair, the long cher
ished grudge breaking into sudden
life; on the other she realized that
her own failure to come to Arm

bold, which she neither could nor had
any desire to conceal, and the cumula-

her. She would not have been human
either Ii she had not experienced
thrill of pride and Joy at the possible
ity that In some way, of which she yet
swore she would not be the instrument
blind or otherwise, the facts might be
disclosed which would enable Newbold
to claim her openly and honorably with

of expectant, hopeful feeling she
thought unworthy Of her and strove
to fight it down. but with manifest I'M

It has taken time to set these things

yet between each demand and reply
they had time to entertain these swift
thoughts-as the drowning compass

Il may not be her friend" said Arm
strong steadily, "but she left me in
these mountains a month ago with
more than half way promise to mar

NeWbold sternly and again addressing

no power on earth could make me.
And now hate him!" She flung the
words at him savagely.
Armstrong was beside himself with
fury at her words. and Newbold's cool
indifference to him personally was I'M
endurable In battle such as he waged
he had the mistaken idea that any
thing was fair. He could not really
tell whether 1t was love of woman or
hate of man that was most dominant;
he saw at once the state of affairs be-
tween the two. He could hurt the
man and the woman with one state
ment; what might be its Interior effect
he did not stop to consider. perhaps IL
he had he would not then have cared
greatly. He realized anyway that
since NeWbold's arrival his chance

Newbold did not leap upon the man

Whether NeWbold found out Arm

there was sufficient provocation in the
present to evoke all the oppugnation

The tensity of the situation was be-

her with such startling force; the un-
expected arrival of Armstrong, Of all
the men on earth the one who ought
not to be there. and then the equally
startling arrival Of NeWbold, of whom
perhaps the same might have been
said. Ii Newbold had only gone on,
