what might happen. His interests
might become permanently identified
with Granville.
Bill informed her from time TO time
as to the progress of his venture. The
company was duly Incorporated. with
an authorized capital of one hundred

fit when work began to show what
the claims were capable of producing.
IL early March came a telegram
from Whitley Lewis saying that he
had staked the claims, both placer and
lode; that he was bound out by the
Telegraph Trail to file at HazeltOn.

retrace the nerye.trying trail. But
neither did she wish to be separated

For second or two he drummed
on the table top.
But is there any real necessity for
you to stay on the grOund?' She pur-
sued her own line Of thought. Il
should think an undertaking Of this
size would justify hiring an expert 10

had an impulse TO throw her ar'u-
around his neck and declare. In aii
sincerity, that she would go 10 ttr
Elappan or TO the north pole or any
place on earth with him, If he wanted

reasoning she reflected in the same in-
slant that if Bill We're away from h~r

what is the difficulty. Blll?'
"Bill Is opposed 10 the whole plan"
he said pursuing up his lips with evil
dent disapproyal of Bill Wagstaff and
all his works. "lIe seems TO feel that
we should not have taken this step.
He declares that no more stock must
be sold; that there must be no enlarge

must peg along in sle little one-hoTse

Her mind was quite made UP to
spend the winter there, and she frank

choice. They had to winter some
where.
"Oh, yes, I suppose so. All right !;
weW winter here" Bill acquiesced.
THAT'S settled"
And. as was his habit when he had
come to a similar conclusion, he re-
fused to talk further on that subject,
out fell to specializing idly on New
York. In which he was presently
aided and abetted by Hazel, who had
never invaded Manhattan, nor, for that
matter. any of the big Atlantic cities.
New York, she was constrained to
admit, rather overwhelmed her. she
4raversed Broadway and other world
known arteries, and felt a tritie dubl-
GUS amid the unceasing crush. Bill
oiloted her to famous cafes and TO
equally famous theaters. She made
Suudrv purchases in magnificent shops.
The huge conglOmeration OF . sights
and sounds made an unforgettable tlh-
preston upon her. She sensed keeniy
she colossal magnitude of ii all. But
she felt a distinct wave of relief when
they were Granville bound once more
In a week they were settled com
fOrtably in a domiciIe of their own
five rooms in an up-tO-date apartment
house. And since the social demands
on Mrs. William Wagstaff's time grew
apace, a capable maid and cook were
added to the Wagstaff establishment
Thus she was relieved of the onus OF
housework. Her time was wholly her
own, at her own disposal or Bits, as
she elected.
But by imperceGtible degrees they
came to take diverse roads in the swirl
