advised It. There was great excite
ment. 1t was best for him to leave"
Have I--a-chance-to recOver?"
"Chance? Why man." exclaimed the
captain, "you'll get well! You'll pack
n sight of lead all your life. But you
can stand that. Duane, the whole
Southwest knows your story. You
need never again be ashamed of the
name Buck Duane. The brand out
law IL washed out. Texas believes
you've been secret ranger all the
time. You're a hero. And now think
Of home. your mother, of this noble
girl-of your future"
The rangers took Duane home to
Wellston.
A railroad had been built since
Duane had gone into exile. Wellston
had grown. A noisy crowd surround
ed the station, but 1t stilled as Duane
was carried from the train.
A sea of faces pressed close. Some
were faces he remembered-schoOl
mates, friends. old neighbOrs. There
was an uplifting Of many hands.
Duane was being welcomed home to
the town from which he had fed. A
deadness within him broke. This well
come hurt him somehow, quickened
him; and through his cold being. his
weary mind, passed change. His
sight dimmed.
Then there was a white house, his
old home. How strange, yet how real !!
His heart beat fast. Had so many,
many years passed? Familiar yet
strange 1t was, and all seemed magni-
fed.
They carried him in, these ranger
comrades, and laid him down. and
lifted his head upon pillows. The
house was still, though full Of people.
Duane's gaze sought the open door.
Someone entered--a tall girl In
white, with dark wet eyes and light
upon her face. She was leading an
old lady, gray-haired. austere-faced,
somber and sad. His motherl She
was feeble, but she walked erect. She
was pale, shaking, yet maintained her
dignity.
Then someone In white uttered a
low cry and knelt by Duane's bed.
His mother flung wide her arms with
n strange gesture.
'This man They've not brought
back my boy. This mans his father |!
Where is my son? My son-oh, my
son T.
When Duane grew stronger 1t was
a pleasure to lie by the west window
and watch Uncle Jim. whittle his stick
and listen to his talk. The old man
was broken now. He told many in
teresting things about people Duane
had known-people who had grown up
and married, failed, succeeded. gone
away, and died. But II was hard TO
keep Uncle Jim of the subject Of
guns, outlaws, ights. He could not
seem to divine how mention of these
things hurt Duane. Uncle Jim was
childish now, and he had great pride
In his nephew. He wanted TO hear
Of all Of Duane's exile. And II there
was one thing more than another that
pleased him II was to talk about the
bullets which Duane carried In his
body.
"Five bullets amt itY he asked,

going TO faint. He OWNED then that
she had understood him, would have
denied HIN nothing not even her life.
/ In that moment. But she was over
come, and he suffered pang Of regret
at his unrestraint.
Presently she recovered, and she
drew only the closer, and leaned upon
him with her face upturned.
He felt her hands on his, and they
were soft, clinging, strong, like steel
under velvet. He felt the rise and
fall, the warmth of her breast. A tre-
NOR ran over him. He tried to draw
back, and IL he succeeded n little her
form swayed with him, pressing closer.
She held her face up, and he was COM
PEELED to look. II was wonderful now !:
white. yet glowing. with the red lips
parted. and dark eyes allurlng. But
that was not all. There was passion,
unauenchable spirit, woman's resolve,
deep and mighty.
II love you, Duanei" she said. "For
my sake don't 30 out to meet this out
law face to face. It's something wild
In you. Conquer 1t II you love me-"
Duane became suddenly weak, and
when he did take her into his arms
again he scarcely had strength to lift
her to n seat beside him. She seemed
more than a dead weight. Her calm
ness had fed. She was throbblng, pal
pitating, quivering. with hot, wet
cheeks and arms that clung to him
like vines. She lifted her mouth to
him. whispering. "Kiss mel" She
meant to change him, hold him.
Duane bent down. and her arms
went round his neck and drew him
close. With his lips on hers he seemed
to float away. That kiss closed his
eyes, and he could not lift his head.
He sat motionless, holding her, blind
and helpless, wrapped In sweet, dark
glory. She kissed him--one long, end
less kiss-or else thousand times
Her lips, her wet cheeks, her hair, the
sOftness, the fragrance of her, the ten
der clasp of her arms. the swell Of
her breast-all these seemed to inclose
him.
Duane could not put her from him.
He yielded to her lips and arms,
watching her, involuntarily returning
her caresses, sure now of her intent,
fascinated by the sweetness of her,
bewildered, almost lost. That was
what 1t was to be loved by woman.
His years OF outlawry had blotsed out
any boyish love he might have known.
This was what he had to give up
all this wonder of her sweet person.
this strange fire he feared yet
loved, this mate his deep and tortured
soul recognized. Never until that
moment had he OWNED the meaning
OF woman TO man. That meaning
was spiritual In that he saw there
might have been for him, under hap
pier circumstances. life OF noble
deeds lived for such a woman.
Don't go! Don't go!" she cried,
rs he started violently.
81 must. Dear, good-by. Remember
l loved you"
He pulled her hands loose from his,
stepped back.
RAY. dearest-I believe-I'll come
back!" he whispered.
These last words were falsehood.
He reached the door, gave one last
piercing glance to fix forever In men,
ory that white face with its dark,
staring, tragic eyes.
"Duanel"
He fled with that moan like thunder,
death, hell In his ears. To forget her,
TO get back his nerve. he forced into
