CHAPTER VII.

There IS the mound" advised liar, riet Brooks on Wednesday morning pointing to a rounded heap of earth just beyond the shade of a burr-oak 8 half mile inland from Sylvan Lake on Glen Isle.
 Mayor Bedight took of his coat rue. fully. Being prisoner to prematurely gray-haired young lady with a clear, rosy complexion and a sweet, win. some manner was not so bad-but to be told to dig like a terrier in thd rough soil was 6 horse of another col. or. But the mayor was game
 Grasping a spade, he set to work diligently. It was a warm morning and the precipitation began to ooze from his heated body.
 Come and sit in the shade while, p invited the girl, thoughtfully. we have all day to ourselyes-and the skeletons will not run away"
 Bedight Obeyed gratefully. throwins himself al the woman's feet in the cool shadows of the oak.
 I'm awfuiIy interested in ancient and medieval things" she explained. smiling down at him over her book. "Once when l was in Iowa l met a man who was engaged in collecting eurios-and he found a real mound builder skeleton along the Cedar river while I was there. What if this should turn out to be something like that?' hopefully.
 Pardon me" said the mayor, boldly. but a nice girl like yourself should not be so interested in dead ones-especially when the woods are fun of live ones"
 The girls face flushed. the red against her white hair making her very attractive in the eyes of the man on the sand.
 "The dead ones" she said slowly, "ReYer stay out late nights, never lyrannize. never take everything for granted. never get a grouch, never"
 The mayor interrupted her. his face serious as be said:
 There were Darby and Joan"
 But these are the days Of divorce courts" she answered, "and-gen-' Iuses-" coloring. H..
 T am old-fashiODed." he parried. 'T like to dream of home with the woman in it."
 T fear it is going to rain." evaded Miss Brooks, looking anxiousIy at the cIoud-hlled west. Do you mind digging a bit, Mr Bedight?"
 "As the wife said to her husband when she wanted Q sealskin,'' he taunted, returning 10 the mound.
 She came and stood over him as be worked
 His spade struck something-and her excitement grew.
 "Oh. do hope it's a mound builder!T she cried excitedly.
 The mayor griBned and kept dig. ging. A clap of thunder pealed in the distance. As she turned appre. hensively, the digger's spade pried up a long. ropy object.
 Here is your mound builder" he said soberly. raising the object upor bis spade.
 She gasped.
 The man smiled.
 '-Ohi" from the woman.
 q am afraid" he breathed, softly 1t is exactly what it looks Ike-the tail Of 8 cowi"
 As she stood frowning at him. great drops of rain began to fall. He look ed about hurTiedly for shelter under 8 tree.
 Come on." he cried. starting for the boat upon the beach. wen have tc camp out" She followed him blindly.
 He pulled the dory high and dry and tipped 1t keel up.
 "Crawl under" he said as the rain began to fall in torrents.
