He glanced at the sleeping child,

out of the tent. Under the sky he
stood still for few moments.

At that instant his alert ear heard
what the sentry, posted some distance
away, had failed to catch-the rustling
of some moving figure in the dense
jungle grass at the edge of the camp.
The major remained perfectly mo,

CHAPTER Ill.

Several years later Captain Mark
Wallace descended from street car
and walked up the grounds of very
select young ladies' boarding school in
Westchester county, New York, kept
by two maiden ladies'. Entering the
colonial portico, the captain rang the
bell and asked to see Miss Howard.
Five minutes afterward, having salts
fed the lady principal that he stood in
the avuncular relation to her charge,
and was a man of blameleSS life, he
met Eleanor in the reception room.
1t was some years since he had seen
her. The grimy little waif of the San
tiago battlefield had shot up into a
slim, long-legged schoolgirl, with brown
hair tied back with a ribbon, and q
face that already showed the promise
of beauty.
The girl hurried forward as if ex-
pecting an embrace, realized Marks
intention, and checked herself quickly
and held out both hands.
"Dear Uncle Mark!' she exclaimed,
"I've been looking forward to you ever
since got your letter telling me that
you were coming EAST
'Well, it's nice to be appreciated
like that" said Mark, laughing.
81 couldn't quite persuade myself
that it was true, end that / should
really see you at last. And you're not
in the least like your photograph"
4Homelier, Eleanor?"
sNo, but different. Older-very
much older. You must be awfully old
quite thirty, should say
Nearly" admitted Mark, wondering
whether the long years in the West,
with the sweltering heat and arduous
service. had really aged him Drema-

suit of brooding over the mystery of
her parentage. The entrance of the
lady principal put an end to their con-
versation. Mark rose reluctantly. His
visit had been all too brief, and it
might be years before he saw the girl
again.
swell, Eleanor, this is au revoir,"
he said. Perhaps for years"
She looked at him in sudden alarm.
"You are not coming back before you
leave for the West, Uncle Mark?" she
asked.
''They won't allow me the time.
have to go to VIZ shington tomorrow,
and then back to Texas
She returned no answer, but went
with him to the house door, and turned
and faced him there, pulling at the
lapels of his coat.
.Send me new photograph, Cap
tain Mark she said. I'm not going
to call you Uncle Mark any more"
"An older one?" asked Mark, laugh
ing, though he had strange sinking
at his heart. This child epitomiZed
home to him, and he had been home
less since boyhood.
"You must forgive me-" she said, q
little wistfully. Captain Mark,
there's something I want awfully to
say to you, but it takes a lot of cour-
age" she added.
'sTell me just the same," answered
Mark. you know, my dear, I want
you to have everything you wish for.
And il Major Howard won't give it to
you, you just let me know. He has as
sumed the responsibility for your up
bringing, and I'm going to have the
fun of giving you pleasure"
"It's something that Major Howard
can't give me, Captain Mark"
"Can I?'
EYES," she said in low voice, pull
ing at his coat, and suddenly raising
her eyes to his. Mark Wallace saw the
soul of mature woman look out Of
the eyes of the child. "When I'm old
er and have put my hair up, and wear
long dresses-when I'm eighteen, say,
II want you to marry me, Captain
Mark"
She was gone in flash, running
along the corridor, while Mark Wal
lace stood dumfounded at the door,
hearing her footsteps grow fainter as
she hurried into the recesses of the
Misses Harpers' School for Select
Young Ladies'.
Mark went down the walk like a
man dreaming. It was absurd it was,
perhaps, characteristic of the girls age
and temperament; and yet, in spite Of
the absurdity, Captain Mark Wallace
felt as if he had suddenly regained
the grimy little child whom he had
found upon the hillside in front of
Santiago, and lost again.
AS he reached the gate he saw a
man watching him from the bend of
the road Something of furtiveness in
the mans posture made him wheel
sharply round; then he remembered
Eleanor's words and started in haste
toward him. But the man shambled
off at a quick gait and when Mark
reached the bend he could see no,
body.

CHAPTER w.

And the years passed, and Mark
Wallace grew grayer and older, and
more set and dispirited, with long al
ternating intervals of resignation,
when he took life as he found it and
was satisfied. But he always came
out of these into brief periods of un-
rest, with the sense that he had awak-
ened from some lethargy that was
damning his soul as the alkali and the
winds of the plains had scanned his
face and taken the last particle of his
youth away.
Now in Texas, now in Arizona, now
in some lonely border post in the
freezing Northwest, he remained cap
tain. He had no friends in Washing
ton. In time-in long time he would
reach his majority, no doubt, to be re-
lieved soon after, and waddle, with
stout old majors of his own age, into
ornate clubs in army centers not quite
so far removed from civilization. He
looked upon this prospect with ironical
patience, and now and then asked
UllUSSlI ll1S ulldllS w Cl dDlC QuCCIiOii
why he had remained in the army.
Eleanor was grown up and domiciled
permanently in Colonel Towards town
house, and her letters had grown more
infrequent and perfunctOry, until their
arrival became quarterly affair in
stead of a monthly event, and not al
ways that, either.
And by and by the feeling came
over Mark that if ever he were to see
her again there would remain no COM
mon link between them. From doubt
ing his future he had come to doubt
himself. He doubted whether the des-
ert life had not blunted him, blunted
his finer instincts, and made him unfit
for social life-certainly rendered him
unfit for the guardianship of a young
girl.
But that he had relinquished to Col
onel Howard grudgingly but uncom-
promisingly. Never in any of his let
tiers did he put forward the shadow
of his former claim.
Then, swiftly, and Unexpectedly,
chance turned and beckoned him.

And he hurried away to look after his

SYNOPSIS.

CHAPTER MARK Wallace, a young
officer in the United States army, is
wounded at the battle of Santiago. While
wandering alone in the jungle he comes
across a dead man in a hut outside of
which little girl is playing. When he
is rescued, he takes the girl to the hospi-
tai and announces his intention of adopt
ing her.
CHAPTER Hills commanding officer,
Major Howard, tells him that the dead
man was Hampton, a traitor who sold
war department secrets to an interna-
tional gang in Washington, and was de-
tected by himself and Kellerman while
they were working in the same office
with him. Howard pleads to be allowed
to send the child home to his wife and
they agree that she shall never know her
fathers shame
