CHAPTER XIV.

Anse Havey had been looking ahead.
When old Milt McBriar had said
Them Haveys lows tibet I'd cross hell
on a rotten plank ter do EN- injury
he had shot close to the mark Bad
Anse knew that the quiet-visaged old
murder lord could no more free himself
from guile and deceit than the RATHER
can separate itself from the poison
which impregnates its fangs and ma
ture.
When he had taken Milt's hand, seal
ing the truce, he had not been be-
guiled, but realized that the compact
was only strategy and was totally in
sincere. Yet in Young Milt he saw
possibilities. He was accustomed to
rely on his own Judgment, and he rec
ognized a clean and sterling strain in
the younger McBriar.
He hated the breed with hatred
that was flesh of his flesh and bone of
his bone, but with an eye of prophecy
he foresaw the day when a disrupted
mountain community must fall asun-
der unless native sons could unite
against the conquest of lowland greed.
He could never trust Old Milt, but he
hoped that he and Young Milt, who
would some day succeed to his IA
theirs authority, might stand together
in that inevitable crisis.
This idea had for long time been
vaguely taking shape in his mind. and
when he met Young Milt in the woods
and proposed uniting to save Juanita's
school he was laying the cornerstone
for that future alliance.
At sunset Young Milt came. and he
came without having spoken of his
purpose at home. The night was sharp
and moonless, with no light save that
| which came from the coldly glitterlng
stars. and Anse and Young Milt
crouched for hours. knee to knee in the
dead thickets, keeping watch.
At last they both saw creeping fg-
ure which was only vague shadow
moving among shadows, and they
peered with straining eyes and raised
rifles But the shadow fell very still.
and since it was only by its movement
that they could detect 1t, they waited
| in vain.

There is an odd reluctance upon
the part of many people to go to the
ant, the water-bug. the beetle and 9TH
er "invertebrate" or backboneiess
creatures, to consider their ways and

first animal behaviOrist of all time.
Not alone ants and bees taught him
much, but all insects, beasts OF the
field and birds of the air contributed
to his wisdom. If Solomon were alive

at last with note of rising defiance.

CHAPTER XVI.

In an Office which overlooks the gray
stone courthouse in Louisville sat a
youngish man of somewhat engaging
countenance. In the small anteroom
of his sanctum was a young woman
who hammered industriously on type
writer and told most of the visitors
who called that Mr.. Trevor was out
That was because most of those who
came bore about them the unmistak-
able hallmark Of creditors. Mr.. Ire
vor's list of creditors would have made
as long scroll as his list of business
activities.
Yet for all these cares Mr.. Trevor
was just now sitting with his tan
shoes propped on his broad desk. and
his face was untroubled. FIe was one
of these interesting gentlemen who
give touch of color to the monotony
of humdrum life. Mr.. Trevor was q
soldier of fortune who sold not his
sword, but the very keen and flexible
blade or his resourceful brain.
Roger Malcolm Of Philadelphia knew
him only as the pleasant chance ac-
quaintance of an evening spent in a
New York club.
He had Impressed the Fastener as
most fascinating fellow who seemed
to have engaged in large enterprises
here and there over the face of the
globe So when Mr. Malcolm present
ed his card in the Office anteroom the
young woman at the machine gave him
one favoring glance and did not say
Mr.. Trevor was out.
$50 you are going to penetrate the
wilds of the Cumberlands, are you?"
inquired Mr.. Trevor in his pleasing
voice, as he grasped his visitors hand.
Tell me just where you mean to go
and I'll tell you how to do it with the
least difficulty. The least difficult down
there is plenty
my objective" replied Mr.. Malcolm.
'is a place at the headwaters of

miles from a town called Peril"

names fit them I'd offer to go with
you, but I'm afraid l wouldn't prove
benefit to you. I'm non grata with Bad

McBriar, who are the local dictators."
Mr.. Malcolm laughed.
TN passing" he said, Il dropped in
to talk over the coal development

Mr.. Trevor reached into his desk
and brought out several maps.

Malcolm nodded 81 am going pri-

said. 81 meant to go before you reused
my interest in your proposition. and it
occurred to me that l might combine
business with pleasure"
The promoter looked up with shade
of surprise.
"You have friends out there in that
God-forsaken tangle?" he inquired.
God help them!"

long while is establishing school

tive note, and Mr.. Trevor at once

gravely. That's as good a name as
any. But don't call it a school. Call
it a college,"
But" she demurred, "ft's not going
to be college. It's just school,"
Again the boyish smile came to his
face and seemed to erase ten years
from his age. His manner of speech
made her feel that they were sharing
a secret.
'"That don't make any difference"
he assured her. Mountain folks are
all mighty proud an touchy.
shouldn't be astonished if some gray
haired folks came to study the primer.
They'll come to college all right, but
it wouldn't hardly be dignified to go to
school, If you want to get 'em We must
needs call it college,"
The girl looked at him again and
said in a soft voice: "You are always
teaching me things / ought to know.
Thank you"
Juanita stood as he left her and
watched him striding down the slope.
On his part he went back to his house
and found it suddenly dark and cheer
less and unsatisfying.
Into the soul of Bad Anse Havey had
come a new element, and the prophet
which was in him could see a new
menace; a necessity for curbing the
grip of this new dream which might
easily outgrow all his other dreams
and bring torture to his heart. Here
was a woman of fine fiber and delicate
culture in whose eyes he might at best
be an interesting barbarian. Between
them lay all the impossible barriers
that quarantined the tangled coves of
the mountains from the valleys of
the rich lowlands. Between their lives
and viewpoints lay the same irrecon-
cilable differences.
And yet her image vas haunting him
as he went his way. and in his heart
was awakening an ache and rap
ture.
On several of her buildings now the
hammers were busy shingling the
roofs. Her influence grew and spread
among the simple folk to whom she
was unostentatiously ministering-
influence with which the old order
must some day reckon.
Anse Havey set his face against
crossing her threshold with much the
same resolution that Ulysses stuffed
his ears against the siren song-and
yet with remarkable frequency they
climbed at the same time from oppo-
site directions and met by the poplar
tree on the ridge.
Its the wrong notion" he told her
obstinately, when her enthusiasm
