What do you mean?" asked the girl
curiously, thrilling to the solemnity Of
the moment, the seriousness, the kind
affection of the old frontiersman, the
weird scene, the fire light, the tents
cleaning ghostlike, the black wall of
the canon and the tops of the noun
tain range broadening out beneath the
stars in the clear sky where they
twinkled above her head, the strange
and terrible story, and now the letters
in her hand, which somehow seemed
to be imbued with human feeling.
Kirkby patted her on the shoulder.
Read the letters" he said; they'll
tell the story. Good night"

drew out from his rough hunting coat
a package of soiled letters; they were
carefully enclosed in an oil skin and
tied with a faded ribbon. You see"
he continued, holding them in his
hand yet carefully concealing them
from the people at the ire. wen
she fell off the cliff-somehOw the
mule lost his foOtin, nobody never
knowed how, leastways the mule was
dead an couldn't tell-she struck on
a spur or shelf about hundred feet
below the brink; evidently she was
carryin' the letters in her dress. Her
bosom was frightfully tore open an

placency upon her, confident and sat-
isfied that his prescription was work

who looked at her that way. Marion
and Emma, his two daughters, wor-
shipped their handsome Philadelphia
cousin and they sat one on either side
of her on the great log lying between
the tents and the fire. Even Bob
Junior condescended to give her APP
proving glances. The whole camp
was at her feet. Mrs. Maitland had
been greatly taken by her young
niece. Kirkby made no secret of his
devotion, Arthur Bradshaw and Henry
Philips, each ''tenderfoot" of the ex-
tremist character, friends of business
connections in the east, who were
spending their vacation with Matt
land, shared in the general devotion;
to say nothing of George the cook and
Pete, the packer and horse wrangler.
Philips, who was an old acquaint-
ance of Ends, had tried his luck with
her back east and had sense enough
to accept as final his failure. Brad
shaw was solemn young man with
out that keen sense of humor which
was characteristic of the west. The
others were suitably dressed for adj
venture, for BradshaW's idea of an ap-
propriate costume was distinguished

by the side of rapidly rushing noun
tain torrent fed by the eternal SHOWS
of the lofty peaks of the great range.
A level stretch of grassy land where
a mountain brook joined the creek
was dotted with cIumps of pines and
great bOclders rolled down from the
everlasting hills-haIf an acre of open
clearing. On the opposite side of the
brook the canon wall rose almost
sheer for perhaps five hundred feet,
ending in jagged, needle-edged PIN
nacles of rock, sharp, picturesque. and
beautiful. A thousand feet above ran
the timber line, and four thousand
feet above that the crest of the great
est peak in the main range.
The white tents of the little encamp-
ment which had cleaned so brightly
in the clear air and radiant sunshine
of Colorado, now stood dim and ghost
like in the red reflection of a huge
campfire. 1t was the evening of the
first day in the wilderness.

wagon, the MaILIanQ party With its
long train of burros heavily packed,
it's horsemen and the steady plodders
on foot, had advanced into unexpIored
and almost inaccessible retreats of
the mountains-into the primitive in
deed! In this delightful spot they had
pitched their tents and the perma-
nent camp had been made. Wood
was abundant, the water at hand was
as cold as ice, as clear as crystal and
as soft as milk. There was pas
turage for the horses and burros on
the other side of the mountain brook.
The whole place was little amphi-
theater which humanity occupied per-
haps the first time since creation.
Unpacking the burros, setting up
the tents, making the camp, building
the fire, had used up the late remain
der of the day which was theirs when
they had arrived. Opportunity would
come tomorrow to explore the coun-
try, to climb the range, to try the
stream that tumbled down a success
sion of waterfalls to the right of the
camp and roared and rushed merrily
around its feet until, swelled by the
volume of the brook, it lost itself in
tree-clad depths far beneath. Tonight
rest after labor, tomorrow play after
rest.
The evening meal was over. Enid
could not help think with what
scorn and contempt her father would
have regarded the menu, how his gorge
would have risen-hers, too, for that
matter!-had it been placed before
him on the old colonial mahogany Of
the dining-room in Philadelphia. But
up there in the wilds she had eaten
the coarse homely fare with the zest
and relish of the most seasoned ranger
of the hills. Anxious to be of service,
she had burned her hands and smoked
her hair and scorched her face by
usurping the functions of the young
ranchman who had been brought along
as cook, and had actually fried the
bacon herself! Imagine a goddess
with a frying pan! The black thick
coffee and the condensed milk, drunk
from the granite ware cup, had more
delicious aroma and more delight
full taste than the finest Mocha and
Java in the daintiest porcelain OF
France. Optimum condimentum. The
girl was frankly ravenously hungry,
the air, the altitude, the exertion, the
excitement made her able to eat any
thing and enjoy it.
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 a boulder, his feet
to the fire, smoking an old pipe that
would have given his brother the hor-
rors, looked with approving COM

oh, the smell of the peat and the feel
Of Irish air,
The green Of the woods and the river
running through,
And the kind eyes, the true eyes, the
eyes Of Irish blue!
It's little he knew, when he begged me
to stay.
That my heart it said, "Yesl" when
my lips were tellin' "Nay!"
Oh, the gold Of the sun as we stood
alone, we two,
And the kind eyes, the true eyes, the
eyes of Irish blue!
There's naught loves me here, but
from far across the sea
There's a green little valley that is

with the river running through,
And the kind eyes, the true eyes, the

Dear Mrs. Thompson: am nine
teen and n love with a girl of TWEEN
ty-flve. 1 am as tall as my father and
look fully as old as my, girl. She says
she will marry me but my parents are
against IT.
She is a good girl, but they say I
am too young to marry. Now must 1
wait until I am twenty-one before l
marry? BOB.
You certainly must wait until you
are twenty-one If you wish to marry
without your parents consent. Also,
1 think your parents are very wise,
Bob. You should respect that wisdom.
The girl may be all right in every
way, though I question her judgment
in being willing to marry a lad of
your age. A girl Of twenty-five ought
to have more sense than that, and
should wish for a man nearer her own
age.
to do is to wait until you are twenty
one, Then, If you and the girl still
think you love each other enough to
marry, and you are able to support a
wife, the marriage may be all right.
However, / doubt very much if you
win be of the same mind two years
hence, while the girl, in that time, will
probably have. found a more suitable
match.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am four
teen years old and have two brothers,
one younger and one older. My moth
