days ago when Harry NJ. Smith, Jr,
chief counsel for Beattie. notified
Judge Gregory and Attorney General
Williams. who were looking after thu
States interests.

In receipt of this information. the
Attorney General decided that II would
do no good to press the matter any
further.
The States Representatives looked
into the feasibility Of levying on some
OF the assets Of the Beattie store inS
South Richmond. thinking perhaps
that Beattie, ST.. might have had Inc

CHAPTER XIV.
The Woman's Hart

That ppe earth on which they
lived was covered with a thick blank
ct OF snow. The lakes and pools were
frozen from shore to shore. The
mountain brooks, If they flowed at all.
ran under thick arches of ice. The
deepest canons were well nigh impas-
sible from huge drifts that sometimes
almost rose level with the tops OF the
walls. In every sheltered spot great
banks of white were massed. The
spreading branches OF the tall pine
trees in the valleys dropped under
heavy burdens OF snow. Only here
and there sharp gaunt peaks were
swept clean by the fierce winter
winds and thrust themselves upward
In icy air, naked and bare. The cold
was polar In Its bitter intensity.
The little shelf or plateau jutting
out from the mountain side upon
which the lonely cabin stood vas shell
tered from the prevailing winds. but
the house itself was almost covered
with the drifts. The constant fire
roaring up the huge stone chimney
had melted some OF the snow at the
top and 1t had run down the slanting
roof and formed hugs icicles on what
had been the caves OF the house. The
man had cut away the drifts from
doors and windows for light and lib
erty. At first every stormy night
would ali his laborious clearings with
drifting SNOW, but as 1t became pack
ed down and frozen solid he was able
to keep his various ways open without
q great deal Of difficulty. A little
work every morning and evening suf-
feed.
Every day he had to go down the
mountain stairway to the bottom of
she pocket to feed and water the bur
ros. What was o quick and simple
task ia milder, warmer seasons some
tines took him q half a day under the
present rigorous conditions. And the
woman never saw him start out in
the storm without a sinking heart and
grave apprehension. On his return to
the cabin half frozen almost spent
and exhausted, she ever welcomed him
With eager gratitude and satisfaction
which would shine In her eyes,. throh
j q ner neart and tremble upon her
lips. control It as she might. And he
thought 1t was well worth all the trou-
bic and hArdships OF his task TO be SO
greeted when he came back to her.
Winter had set Ia unusually early
and with unprecedented severity. ANY
kind OF winter in the mountains
you'd have amazed the girl. but even
sae men wits hfs larger experience
declared he had never before known
such sharp and sudden cold. or such
desp and lanting snows. His daily
records had neTer ahown such low
Temperatures nor pad his observation

(Continued.)

Enid Maitland had been very brave
IN his presence, but when he went out
she put her head down on her arms
on the table and cried softly to her
self. Was aver q woman In such q
predicament, thrown into the arms OF
q man who had established every con-
ceivable claim upon her gratitude,
forced to live with him shut up in q
two-room log cabin upon a lonely
mountain range, surrounded by lofty
and inaccessible peaks, pierced by ter
rife gorges soon to be impossible
from the SHOWS? She had read many
stories OF castaways, from Charles
Reade's famous Foul Play down to
more modern instances, but in those
cases there had always been an island
comparatively large over which to
reign with privacy, seclusion, opportu-
nifty for withdrawal; bright heavens,
balmy breezes, idyllic conditions.
Here were two uplifted from the earth
pom a sky-piercing mountain. They
would have had more range OF action
and liberty Of motion IL they
had been upon a derelict In the ocean.
And she realized at the same time
that in all those stories the two cast
aways always loved each other. Would
It be so with them7 Was 1t 80? And
again the hot flame within outvied the
nrs OF the hearth as the blood rushed
TO the smooth surface OF her cheek
again.
What would her father say IL he
could know her position, what would
the world say, and above all what
would Armstrong say. It cannot be
denied that her thoughts wers terri
bly, and overwhelmingly dismayed.
and yet that despair was not without
= certain relief. No man had ever so
interested her as this one. What was
the mystery OF his life, why was he
there, what had he meant when he
had blessed the idle impulse that had
her into his arms?
Her heart throbbed again. She lift
~ her face from her hands and dried

lid once again not altogether from
the fire. Who and what was this
man? Who was that woman whose
he had taken from her? Well,
she would have time to find out. And
the world outside could
think and do what It pleased. She
sat staring into the Are light, seeing
pictures there. dreaming dreams She
as lovely as an angel to the mai
