CHAPTER L.
Retrib button.

And yet the very consciousness Of
the girls danger was all the stimu-
liant that Alan needed to recall him to
himself.
Once arrived with Barcus at the top
of the cliff, he lost no time in setting
about preparations to effect her res
cue.
In this business Fortune smiled upon
him. as 1t were, by predisposition.
A broad roadway ran along the top
Of the precipice, turning off at a
little distance to the right, to descend
the mountainside. And just beyond
this turning Providence had chosen
to locate the camp of a hydraulic min
ing outfit.
Alan's appearance at the top, In
fact, was coincident with the arrival
at that point of half a dozen excited
miners; and he had no more than
voiced his demands than three of their
number were Fastening back to the
camp to procure rope and mora hands.
Within five minutes Alan, against
the protests of Rose and Barcus, was
being lowered over the edge and down
to the shale roof on which he land
ed at a spot far to one side of Judith,
to escape all danger of sending a sec
ond landslide down upon her.
Picking his way carefully down to
the very brink, Alan edged along this,
more than once saved a fall to death
only by the rope, until he stood i'm.
mediately below Judith.
Then pausing, he instructed her
carefully. tossed the end of the rope
into her hands, and when she had
wound 1t twice round her arm, crept
up to her side and helped her make 1t
fast about her body. Z
His signal to the miners that 81
was well educed prompt response.
There was a giddy interval in which
the two swung perilously between
heaven and Garth. Then they stood
ono more in safety.
Supported by sympathetic hands,

and b~reathlessly confirmed by Alan.

And this was very well for them.

themselves and begun to appreciate

Judith's body was frightful. He could
feel her swinging like a pendulum at
the end of it's 80 feet, and could
imagine but too wildly what would
happen if the rope should prove
faulty.
The fall of 20 feet t. the shale
roof was nothing. What would fol
low would, however, spell death. The
impact Of her body would set the
shale in motion, like an avalanche
and beyond the caves was only empti-
ness and the bowlder-strewn bed of
the chasm. a hundred feet below!
The sweat poured from his face like
rain. His eyes started in their sock
cts, the blood drummed in his ears
with a roar resembling distant thun-
der. His fingers grew numb, his throat
dry.
He felt that he could not hold on
another instant when, abruptly, that
torture was no more. The rope had
been relieved of it's burden. He heard

body falling on the shale, then the
slithering rumble of the landslide
gathering momentum.
Barcus, at length arrived, assisted
him to a place OF security. Spent
and faint and sick with horror, he lay
prone and shuddering.
Only the assurance Of Barcus that
Judith had somehow escaped being
precipitated over the caves OF the
shale roof reused him and gave him
nerve enough to resume the climb.

our wealth is increasing far more rap

our wealth now well beyond the fig
