of the lofty peaks Of the great range.

she had burned her hands and smoked

as cook, and had actually fried the
bacon herself! Imagine goddess

excitement made her able to eat any

She was gloriously beautiful. too;
even her brief experience in the west
had brought back the missing roses
to her cheek, and had banished the
bistre circles from beneath her eyes.
Robert Maitland, lazily reclining
propped up against boulder, his feet
to the fire, smoking an old pipe that
would have given his brother the hor-
rors, looked with approving COM

to accept as final his failure. Brad

out that keen sense OF humor which
was characteristic of the west. The
others were suitably dressed for ad-

propriate costume was distinguished
chiefly by long green felt puttees
which swathed his huge calves and
excited curious inquiry and ribald
comment from the surprised denizens
of each mountain hamlet through
which they had passed, to all OF which
Bradshaw remained serenely oblivious.

threw off her preoccupation instantly
and easily, however. and Joined read

OF the way.
Mr.. Robert Maitland, as Armstrong
has said, had known him from boy.
There were things in his career OF
which Maitland did not and could not
approve, but they were OF the past. he
reflected, and Armstrong was after
all a pretty good sort. Mr.. Maitland's
standards were not at all those OF his
Philadelphia brother, but they were
very high. Ills experiences OF men
had been different; he thought that
Armstrong, having certainly by this
time reached years of discretion. could
be safely entrusted with the precious
treasure of the young girl who had
been committed to his care. and for
whom his affection grew as his knowl-
edge of and mountaineering with her
increased.

knew nothing about his past, indeed
there were things in it OF which Matt
land himself was ignorant, and which
had they been known to him might
have caused him TO withhold even his
tentative acquiescence in the possibii-
ties.
Most OF these things were known
