Slowly but

suddenly poured rain. Slowly but
surely the horses picked their way up
the mountain side through the storm
and suddenly walked out into the
sunlight again; they looked down on
the smooth fat surface of the clouds
through which they had passed.
1t was dusk when the party reached
the summit. The horses were loosened
to Craze in the open field and the
guides hurried to build a fire in front
OF the cave made by a projecting ledge
OF rock beneath which the party was to
sleep.
f, The bed OF balsam boughs was too
sharp contrast TO Mans million dollar
room to permit Stuart much sleep. Be-
sides, the youngsters were giggling
and laughing and joking most Of the
night. Only a big log marked the par
tition wall between the mems and
| women's part of the cave The space
| was 80 Knitted it was necessary to sleep
close together The girls and boys new
er grew tired cracking silly jokes about
the magniticence of their sleeping GUAR
tiers. In vain Nan begged for quiet II
was o'clock before they were still at
| last and she fell into a deep sleep.
Stuart rose. sat before the log fire and
watched the regular rise and fall of her
bosom as she slept like a child. On a
| distant mountain side he heard the
howl OF lonely wolf. Sixteen years
ago the mountains were full Of them
and they came quite close. He was re-
minded OF the narrowing strip of the
savage world. fast disappearing before
the march of civilization. Somewhere
inside of him he heard the lonely cry
OF another wolf.
shes mine-mine, Nature gave her
to me in the morning of life-I was a
| fool. ! should have taken her by force.
If need be. and she would have thank
ed me in after years. She has complied
with the conventions Of society and
trampled the highest law OF life. Why
not smash convention now at the call
Of that law?"
Again the wolf howled in the distant
darkness. and 1t seemed the echo Of his
own mad cry. He walked from his rev.
erie with an angry start. He shud
dered that he could have harbored the
thought for a moment.
The eastern horizon was beginning
20 glow with the dawn. He rose,
walked to the summit and sat down on
the pile of stones that marked the
grave of Professor Mitchell. He watch
ed in silence until he saw the suns
red rim suddenly leap above the blue
black peaks of the east and drive the
} last shadow of the night from the val
J leys below. With their fading mists he
felt the darkness lift from his own
: heart and the sunlight OF reason stream
J in. A new joy welled up from the
depths OF his spirit. He was alive to
his finger tips. and his imagination
! glowed with the consciousness that life

coming. He felt it in every word that
i had fallen from Mans lips since they
left on this trip. He felt 1t most keenly
OF all when she was silent. read II in
the tremor Of her mouth, the shadowy
tenderness of her eyes, the low, deep
tones Of her voice.

Nan accepted the situation with girl
ish enthusiasm.
The doctor pronounced the meal bet
ter than he had tasted on the trip.
Blvens was still in an ugly mood and
refused TO leave his stateroom or al
low any one but the doctor to enter.

his frostbitten fingers and toes and
ears and still cherished his gTudge

Just what had occurred between them
on the trip that day.
On the second morning after the
freeze a light dawned on the little
mans sulking spirits. During the
night the ice softened, and a strong
southerly breeze had swept every piece
Of 1t to sea.
It was just o'clock, and Nan was
busy humming a song and setting the
table for breakfast when Stuart heard
the distant drumbeat Of a tenders en-
CINE. The guide was returning from
the shore or the lost tender had come.
, If 1t were the guide he would proba-
bly, bring news of the other men. Stu
art called:
"a tender is coming, Nan. Don't
come on deck until tell you"
/ In a moment he came back down
/ the companionway and spoke in quiet
tones:
It's just as expected. They are
both dead The guide found them on

what's bigger, you're q good one. If
God will forgive me for the foolish
things 1 said and did I'll Try TO make
1t up to you, old boy. Is it all right?'
Stuart's answer was a nod. smile
and a pressure Of the hand.
When they were back in New York
the stirring scenes Of Virginia brought
Stuart more and more into intimate
personal relations with Bivens, and
he had taken advantage Of the fact to
draw away from his wife He ceased

devotion made this easy, and on Har-
riet's return from Europe with an en-
gagement as understudy in grand
opera his hfe settled down once more
to the steady development of his
IDEAL OF service to the common people.
Scarcely a day passed without bring
ing to the young lawyer some remind
er Of Bivens' friendship. Two great
lawsuits involving the principles on
which the structure of the modern
business world rested were begun in
the federal courts At the financier's
secret suggestion the more important
Of these was placed in Stuart's hands.
Bivens hoped to beat the government
in this suit, but in case the people
should win he wanted Stuart to have
the honor.
Stuart could scarcely credit his ears
when Bivens said to him with q
chuckle:

dreams. His exhaustion was so

Through the night his mind went over
and over the horror of the moment on

Between the times of doing uncon-

wondered what had become of the two
