to, Gid-same as do"
"Maybeso. l shouldn't wonder If
you'd find out quite soon enough what
I'm doing here. You never can tell"
the old man retorted with a manner
that concealed volumes
Those who were present remembered
the words and In the light of what took
place later thought them significant.
Anyhow, 1t is quite a social event
for Kusiak," Macdonald suggested
with a smile Of irony.
Without more words Holt turned
back 10 his bargaining. The big Scots
man went on his way, remembered
that he wanted to see the cashier Of
the bank which he controlled, and
promptly forgot that old Gid existed.
The old man concluded his purchase
and drove up to the hotel behind one
of the best dog teams In Alaska.
Gideon asked a question of the por-
ter.
Second floor That's his room up
there" the man answered, pointing to
a window.
"Oh, you, seven-eighteen-n
nine" the little miner shouted up.
Elliott appeared at the window.
''Well, I'll be hangedl What are you
doing here, Old-Timerr'
"Onct 1 knew a man lived to be a
grandpa minding his own business"
grinned the little man. Come down
and I'll tell you all about it. boy"
In half a minute Gordon was beside
him. After the first greetings the
young man nodded toward the dog
team.
How did you persuade Tim Ryan to
lend you his huskies?"
why don't you take a paper and
keep up with the news, son? These
huslies don't belong to Tim"
Meaning that Mr.. Gideon Holt Ia

you've done guessed it." admitted
the miner complacently.
He had right to be proud of the
team. 1t was a famous one even In
the North. 1t had run second for two
years in the Alaska sweepstakes to
Macdonald's great Siberian wolf
hounds. The leader, Butch, was the
hero of a dozen races and a hundred
savage fights.
'What in Halifax do you want with
the team?" asked Elliot, surprised.
"The whole outfit must have cost
small fortune"
Some dust" admitted Gideon proud
ly. He winked mysterIously at Cor
don. II got a use for this team, If
anyone was to ask you"
Haven't taken the government mail

you what want with this team, as the

and narrowed slyly his little beadlike
eyes. I'm going to put a crimp in

body. In spite of his terror, of his
fiaccid will, he had to keep the faith.
He was guardian of the bank fluids.
AT all costs he must protect them.
His forearm came up with a Jerk.
Two shots rang out almost together.
The cashier sagged back against the
wall and slowly slid to the floor.
The guests of Mrs. Selfridge danced
well into the small hours. The Cali
fornia champagne stimulated a gayety
that was balm to her soul. She want
ed her dinner-dance to be smart, to
have the atmosphere she had found In
the New York cabarets. If everybody
talked at once, she felt they were hav-
Ing a good time. If nobody listened
TO anybody else, 1t proved that the af-
fair was a screaming success.
Mrs. Wally was satisfied as she babe
her guests good-by and saw them pass
into the heavy snow that was again
falling. They all assured her that
there had not been so hilarious q party
In Kusak.
One old-timer, trifie lit up by rea-
son Of too much hospitality, phrased
his enjoyment little awkwardly.
It's been great, Mrs. Selfridge.
Nothing like 1t since the days of the
open dance hail."
Mrs. Mallory hastily suppressed an
internal smile and stepped into the
breach. "How do you do it?' she
asked her hostess enviously.
MY dear, if you say it was a sue
cess"
What else could one say?"
Genevieve Mallory always preferred
to tell the truth when 1t would do Just
as well. Now 1t did better, since It
contributed to her own ironic sense of
amusement Macdonald had once told
her that Mrs. Selfridge made him think
OF the saying, Monkey sees, monkey
does" The effervescent little woman
had never had an original idea in her
life.
Most Of those who had been at the
dance slept late. They were oblivious
OF the fact that the storm had quick
ened again into bowling gale. Nor
did they know the two bits of news
that were passing up and down the
main street and being telephoned from
house to house. One of the items was
that the stage for Katma had failed to
reach the roadhouse at Smiths Cross

That's good sign. She was afraid

1t was part Of the fiction between
them that Mrs. Mallory was to give
him the benefit of her advice in his
wooing of her rival. She seemed to
take 1t for granted that he would at
last marry Sheba after wearing away
the rigid Puritanism of her resent
ment.
Macdonald had never liked her so
well as now. Her point of view was
so sane, so reasonable. 1t asked for
no impossible virtues in a man. There
was something restful in her genial,
derisive understanding of him. She
had silent divination of his moods
and ministered indolently to them.

Her scarlet lips, the long, unbroken
lines of the sinuous, opulent body, the
challenge of the smoldering eyes. the
warmth of her laughter, all invited him
to forget the charms of other women.
The faint feminine perfume of her was
waited to his brain. He felt a besieg-
ing of the blood.
Stepping behind the chair in which
she sat, he tilted back the head of lus-
trous bronze, and very deliberately
kissed her on the lips.
For moment she gave herself to
his embrace, then pushed him back,
rose, and walked across the room to a
little table. With fingers that trembled
slightly she lit cigarette. Sheathed
