halfiing boys, maybe. but a man goes
his ain gait even when he gets a bit
facer."
"Yes," she agreed. And In a flash
she saw what would happen, that in
the reaction from his depression he
would turn to Geneyieve Mallory and
marry her.
you're too young for me, anyhow
too soft and innocent. Once you told
me that you couldn't keep step with
me. It's true. You can't. 1t was a
daft dream"
He took deep breath, seemed to
shake himself out of 1t, and smiled
cheerfully upon her.
"We'll put our treasure-trove on the
sled and go back to your friends" he
continued briskly. Tomorrow I'll send
men up to scour the hills for North
rup's body"
Sheba drew the canvas back over the
face Of the dead man. As she followed
Macdonald back to the trail, tears filled
her eyes. She was remembering that
the white, stinging death that had
crept upon these men so swiftly had
missed her by hairs breadth. The
strong, lusty life had been stricken
out of the big Cornishman and prob
ably Of his partner In crime. Perhaps
they had left mothers or wives or
sweethearts to mourn them.
Macdonald relieved Elliot at break
ing trail and the young man went back
to the gee-pole. They had discarded
mukluks and wore moccasins and
snowshoes. It was hard, slow work,
for the trail-breaker had to fight his
way through snow along the best route
he could find. The moon was high
when at last they reached the road
house.

"What In the world have you been
doing with your facet" demanded d.
ane. AS an afterthought she added:
''Mr. Macdonald is all cut up too"
"We've been taking massage treat
ment." Gordon passed to a subject of
more immediate interest. "Do / get
my congratulations, Dir"
She kissed him. too, for old sake's
sake. II do believe you'll suit Sheba
better than Colby Macdonald would.
He's great man and you are not. But
1t isn't everybody that Is fit to be the
wife of great man."
THAT'S double, left-handed compli-
ment," laughed Gordon. "But you can't
say anything that will hurt my feelings
today d. Isn't that your baby hear
crying7 What heartless mother you
are!"
Diane gave him the few minutes
alone with Sheba that his gay smile
had asked for. sect out with you,"

SO hurriedly? He would not let him
self believe 1t.
"You ought to work up better story
than that" he said contemptuously
"You can throw husky through the
holes In 1t. How could Elliot know
for Instance, that Miss O'Neill was moi
safer"
1.-THE same way you could a. known
it," snapped old Gideon. "He phoned
to Smiths Crossin' and found the
stage hadn't got In and that there was
whale OF storm up In the hills.Y
Macdonald set his face. you're
lying to me. You stumbled over the
stage while you were making your get
away. Now you're playing 1t for an
alIbi."
Elliot had risen. Sheba stood beside
him, her hand In his. She spoke quietly.
ITS the truth. Believe 1t or not as
you please. We care nothing about
that"
The stab of her eyes, the carriage of
the slim, plant figure with its sugges-
ton OF fine galiantry, challenged her
former lover to do his worst.
On the battered face of Gordon was
a smile. So long as his Irish sweet
heart stood by him he did not care IL
he were charged with high treason. 1t
was worth all 1t cost to feel the
warmth of her brave, fmpulsive trust.
The deep-set eyes of Macdonald
clinched with those of his rival. "You
cached the rest of the gold, suppose"
he said doggedly.
With Tilt of his shoulders the
younger man answered lightly: "There
are none so blind as those who will not
see, Mr.. Macdonald" He turned to
Sheba. "Come. We must make break
fast"
You're going to Kusiak with me-"
his enemy said bluntly.
"After we have eaten, Mr.. Macdon-
add" returned Elliot with an ironic
bow. Perhaps, IL you have not had
breakfast yet, you will join u.s."
1--WE start In half an hour an
nounced the mlne-owner CURLY, and he
turned on his heel.
The rife lay where Sheba had
dropped 1t when she ran to gather her
stricken lover into her arms. Macdon-
aid picked 1t up and strobe over the
brow of the Hill without backward
look. He was too proud to stay and
watch them. It was impossible to es-
cape him In the deep snow that filled
the hill trails, and he was convinced
they would attempt nothing of the
kind.
The Scotsman felt for the first time
in his life old and spent. Under ire
mendous difficulty he had mushed for
two days and had at last run his men
down. The lust of vengeance had sat
on his shoulders every mile Of the way
and had driven him feverishly for
ward. But the salt that had lent a
SAVIOR to his passion was gone. Even
though he won, he lost. For Sheba had
gone over to the enemy.
With the fierce wiIlfulness Of his
he tried to tread under
foot his doubts about the guilt of Holt |
and Elliot. Success had made him |
arrogant and he was not good loser.

and while you are there forget that
there are going to be crying babies
and nursemaids with evenings out in
that golden future, of yours"
"Come along, Sheba. Wen start now
on the golden trail,s said Elliot.
| She walked as IL she loved 1t. Her
long slender legs moved rhythmically
| and her arms swung true as pendu-
| lums.
The moon was all that Diane had
promised. Sheba drank 1t in happily.
Il believe I must be pagan. I love
the sun and the moon and know it's
all true about the little folk and the
pied piper and"
IF it's paganism to be in love with
the world, you are thirty-third degree
pagan"
"Well, and was there ever more
beautiful night before2"
He thought not, but he had not the
words to tell her that for him its
beauty lay largely In her presence. Her
passionate love Of things fine and
brave transformed the universe for
him. 1t was enough for him to he near
her, to hear the laughter bubbling In
her throat, to touch her crisp, blue
black hair as he adjusted the scarf
about her head.
"God made the night" he replied.
$50 that's Christian thought as well
as pagan one"
They were no exception to the rule
that lovers are CYCLISTS. The world for
them tonight divided itself into two
classes. One included Sheba ONeir
and Gordon Elliot; the other took in
the uninteresting remnant of humanity.
No matter how far afield their talk be-
gan, 1t always came back to them
selves. They wanted to know all about
each other, to compare experiences
and points of view. But time fled too
fast for words. They talked--as lovers
will to the end of time--in exclama-
lions and the meeting Of eyes and lit
tie endearments.
When Diana and Peter found them
on the hillside, Sheba protested, with
her half-shy, half-audacious smile that
1t could not be two hours since she
and Gordon had left the living room.
Peter grlnned. He remembered hill
top consecrated to his own courtship
of Diane.
The only wedding present that Mac
donald sent Sheba was long envelope
with two documents attached by clip.
One was from the Kusiak Sun. 1t an
nounced that the search party had
found the body of Northrup with the
rest Of the stolen gold beside him. The
other was copy of legal document.
Its effect was that the district attorney
had dismissed all charges pending
against Gordon Elliot.
Although Macdonald lost the coal
claims at Kamatah by reason of the
report of Elliot, all Alaska still be-
lieves that he was right. In that coun-
try of strong men he stands head and
shoulders above his fellows. lie has
the fortunate gift of commanding the
Of friend and foe alike.

tured her Imagination. For Genevieve

He hated the man who had robbed him
of Sheba, but he could not escape re-
speeding him. Elliot had fought until
he had been hammered down into I'M
consciousness and he had crawled to
his feet and stood erect with the smile
Of the unconquered on his lips. Was
this the sort Of man to murder in cold
blood kindly old gentleman who had
never harmed him?
The only answer Macdonald found
was that Milton had taken him and
his partner by surprise. They had
been driven to shoot the cashier to
cover up their crime. Perhaps Holt or
another had fred the actual shots, but
