even the base can love, and sometimes
love transforms. II II be given a

the rustic boor, and his real love for
Enid Maitland might have done more
for Armstrong than he himself or any
one who knew him as he was, and
few there were who had such

possible. There was one thing that
love could not do. however: 1t

life was not very high. but in one way
It was admirable. In that prompt. bold
desire action was his chiefest charac-
teristic.
On this certain morning a month
after the heart-breaking disaster. his
power of passive endurance had been
strained to the vanishing point. The
great white range was flung In his face
like a challenge. Within its secret re-
cesses lay the solution of the mystery.
Somewhere, dead or alive, beyond the
soaring rampant was the woman he
loved. It was impossible for him to
remain quiet any longer. Common
sense. reason, every argument that
Sad been adduced, suddenly became Of
no weight He lifted his head and
stared straight westward. his eyes
swept the long semicircle OF horizon
across which the mighty range was
drawn like the chord Of gigantic arc
or the string of mighty bow. Each

aggression of the range called him ir-
resistibiy to action.

Robert Maitland had offices In the

certainty or hesitation about Arm
he was standing In the private room Of
his friend. The two men were not
alone there. Stephen Maitland sat In
q low chair before another window
removed from the desk somewhat,
staring out At the range. The old
man was huddled down In his seat,
every line Of his figure spoke Of grief
and despair. OF all the places in Dem

fronting the rampant Of the noun

quietly looking at the SUBMITS, some
times softly shrouded In white. some
times swept bare BY the fierce winter
gales that blew across them, some
times shining and sparkling 90 that

Of the dazzling sun Of Colorado; and
at other times seen dimly through
mists Of whirling snow.
Oh, yes. the mountains challenged
him also to the other side Of the
range. His heart yearned for his
child. but he was too old to make
the attempt. He could only sit and
pray and wait with such faint and fad

til the break up Of the spring came.
For the rest he troubled nobody: no
