The Right Law.


Once again Poppy Ordway was back
at Daily's, Seemingly nothing had
happened in her absence Sandry was
a little stronger a bit more impatient
to be at the work. able to go about the
camp and the tilted meadow He was
pale STILL and to her passionate eyes
more to be desired than ever. She
noticed quickly how wistfully tender
was the face Of Siletz, and how the
girl stayed apart from Sandry in a
certain diffidence. This was balm to
her fears and her anxiety.
She went back to her work with re
newed vigor She was happier here in
this wild country than she had ever
been in her life, filled with the excite
ment of Fame that lured and Love
that beckoned, and, so she believed,
able to capture both.
Then one day an incident took
place that caused her to see that she
must let him feel the steel beneath the
velvet.
AS usual, she sat in the golden after
noon on the east porch, her work for
the day being over, and Sandry

And now. Mr.. Farnsworth, she

The lawyer was folding up his pa

in the drawer.
"Sandry? Why-not very much,
