Shortly Flanagan returned. He had

she had been captive of Mahomed,
she had forced the thought from her

full measure Of misery. Never, never
would she return to Mentone, not even
for the things that We're rightfully

Neither could she accept pity;
and she stole a glance at George, as

took to comfort a man.

peated assaults it at length conquered
her. 1t was the child.
Did she possess, after all, latent
sense Of motherhood, and was it stir
ring to establish itself? She really
did not know. Was 1t not fear and
doubt rather than motherly instinct?
She paused in front Of the mirror, but
the glass solved only externals. She
could not see her soul there in the
reflection; she saw only the abundant
gifts of nature. splendid, doubleEand-
ed, prodigal. And in contemplating
that reflection, she forgot for space
what she was seeking. But that child!
From whom did she inherit her Pc
culiar ideas Of life? From some Puri-
tan ancestor OF her fathers; certainly
not from her side. She had never
bothered her head about Fortune, save
to house and clothe her, till the past
forty-eight hours. And now it was too
late to pick up the thread she had
cast aside as not worth considering.
To no one is given perfect wirdom:
and she recognized the flaw In hsrs
that had led her to ignore the mental
attitude Of the girl. She had not even
made friend Of her; mistake, a bit
Of stupidity absolutely foreign to her
usual keenness. The child lacked
little of being beautiful, and in three
or four years she would be. Mrs. Ched-
soye was without jealousy; she 40
cepted beauty in all things unreserv'
edly. Possessing as she did an incom-
parable beauty Of her own, she could
we'll afford to be generous. Perhaps
the true cause of this disturbance lay
In the knowledge that there was one
thing her daughter had inherited from
her directly, almost identically; ia

courage. Mrs. Chedsoye was afraid OF
nothing except wrinkles, and Fortune
was too young to know this fear. So
then, the mother slowly began to com.
prehend the spirit which had given
life to this singular perturbation. For.
tune had declared that she would run
away; and she had the courage ia
carry out the threat.
Resolutely Mrs. Chedsoye rang for
her maid Celeste. Thoughts like these
only served to disturb the marble
smoothness Of her forehead.
The two began to pack. That is to
say, Celeste began; Mrs. Chedsoys
generally took charge ot these maneu-
vers from the heights, as became the
officer in command. Bending was
likely to enlarge the vein in the neck:

more she must husband those linger-

Hyanne folded his arms and stared

Imlessly hunted for the stub Of the
osar he had dropped; kind OF reflex
action.
Inc two men were all alone. The

with, and begin life over again."
Ryanne got up and restlessly paced.
Nonchalance had been beaten out Of
him; the mercurial humor which had
once been so pleasant to excite,
which had once given him foothold
in such moments, was gone. He had
only one feeling, keen, biting, bitter
shame. At length he stopped in front
Of George, who smiled and looked up
expectantly.
Jones, when you stick your finger
into water and withdraw it, what hap
pens? Nothing Well, the man who
gives me a benefit is sticking his
finger into water. I'm just as un-
stable. How many promises have
made and broken! mean, promises
to myself. l don't know. This mo-
ment l swear to be good, and along
comes a pack Of cards or bottle OF
wine, and back I slip. Would 1t be
worth while to trust man so damned
weak as that? Look at me. / am six

eighty pounds, no fat. / am as sound
as a cocoanut. There isn't boxer in
the States I'm afraid Of. l can ride,
shoot, fence, fight; there isn't game
I can't take a creditable hand in. So
much for that. There's the other side.
Morally, I'm putty. When it's soft you
can mold it any which way; when it's
hard, it crumbles. VIII you trust
man like that?"
Eyes. Out there you'll be away
from temptation
perhaps. Well, accept. And If
one day I'm missing, think kindly OF
the poor devil Of an outcast who want
ed to be good and couldn't be. I'm
tagged. I'm going to turn in. Good
night"
He picked up his blanket and saddle
bags and made his bed dozen yards
away.
George set his gaze at the fire, now
falling in places and showing 1ncan-
descent holes. A month ago, in the
rut of commonplace, moving round In
oiled grooves Of mediocrity. Bang!
like a rocket. Why, never had those
liars in the smoke-rooms recounted
anything half so wild and strange as
this adventure. Smugglers, card
sharps, an ancient rug, a caravan IN
the desert! He turned his head and
looked long and earnestly at the little
tent. Love, too; love that had put
into his diffident heart the thrill and
courage of a Bayard. Love! He saw
her again as she stepped down from
the carriage; in the dining-room at his
side, leaning over the parapet; inef-
fah1v sweet, hauntingly sad. Would
she accept the refuge he had oHerea
He knew that old Mortimer would
take her without question. Would she
accept the shelter of that kindly rool
She must! If she refused and Went
her own way into the world, he would
lose her for ever. She must accept!
He would plead with all the eloquence
Of his soul, for his own happiness, and
mayhap hers. He rose, faced the
tent, and, with gesture not unlike
that Of the pagan in prayer, registered
a VOW that never should she want for
protection. never should aha want f"r

Mrs. Chedsoye retired to her room
early that memorable December night.
Her brother could await the return
Of Horace. She hadn't the least doubt
as to the result; green young man
pitted against seasoned veterans du-
plicity. She wished Jones no harm
physically; in fact, she had put down
the law against it. Still, much de-
pended upon chance. But for all her
confidence of the outcome, quality Of
restlessness pervaded her. She tried
to analyze it, Intellectually at first.
Perhaps she did not look deep enough;
perhaps she did not care thoroughly
to examine the source of 1t. Insistent-
ly, however, 1t recurred; and by re-
