He dragged the trunk back into the
room, and came out carrying a great
armful Of masculine belongings. Two
such trips he made, piling all his things
onto chair.

"Your room Is now ready, madam,

mock dignity, and went back into the
kitchen.
Hazel heard him rafting pots and
dishes, whistling cheerfully the while.
She closed the door, and busted herself
with an inventory Of the tenderfoot
lady's trunk. In 1t she found every
thing needful for complete change, and
variety Of garments to boot. Folded
in the bottom Of the trunk was gray
kimono. There was q coat and skirt,
too, of brown corduroy. But the femi-
nine instinct asserted itself, and she
laid out the gray skirt and the kimono.
For q dresser Roaring Bill had fash
toned wide shelf, and on it she found
toilet set complete-hand mirror,
military brushes, and sundry articles,
backed with silver and engraved with
his initials. Perhaps with a spice Of
malice, she put on few extra touches.
There would be some small satisfac-
ton in tantilizing Bill Wagstaf- even
IL she could not help feeling that 1t
might be a dangerous game. And, thus
arrayed in the weapons Of her sex, she
slipped on the kimono, and went into
the living room to the cheerful glow of
the fire.
Bill remained busy in the kitchen.
Dusk fell. The CLEAN Of light showed

Hazel discarded the wet coat, an6

off her sopping footgear and toasted
her bare feet at the blaze. Her cloth
ing was also wet, and she wondered
pettishly how in the world she was
going to manage with only the gar
ments on her back-and those dirty
and torn from hacking through the
brush for a matter of two weeks. Ac-
cording to her standards, that was
roughing it with a vengeance. But
presently she gave over thinking Of her

"By Jovel" he said, looking down at
her. "You look good enough to eatl
I'm not cannibal, however" he con-
tinued hastily, when Hazel flushed.
She was not used to such plain speak
ing. "And supper's ready. Come onl"
The table was set. Moreover, to her
surprise-and yet not so greatly to her
surprise, for she was beginning to ex-
pect almost anything from this para
doxical young man-it was spread with
linen, and the cutlery was silver, the
dishes china, in contradistinction to
the tinware Of his camp outfit.
AS cook Roaring Bill Wagstaff had
no cause to be ashamed Of himself and
Hazel enjoyed the meal, particularly
since she had eaten nothing since six
in the morning. After time, when her
appetite was partially satisfied, she
took to glanciRg over his kitchen.
There seemed to be some adjunct Of
kitchen missing. A fire burned on
hearth similar to the one in the living
room. Pots stood about the edge Of
the file. But there was no sign Of

cigarette material instead Of his pipe.

But she would not take up the cud
gels against him. would not seem to
countenance or condone his offense by
discussing It from any angle whatsO-
ever. And she was more determined
to allow no degree of friendliness, even
in conversation, because she recOg-
nized the masterful quality Of the
man.
After a lapse Of time they dropped
into another valley, and faced west
ward to a mountain range which Bill
told her was the Rockies. The next
day snowstorm struck them. It was
not particularly cold. Bill wrapped
her in heavy canvas coat, and plod-
ded on. Noon passed, and he made
no stop. IF anything, he increased his
pace.
Suddenly, in the late afternoon, they
stepped out Of the timber into little
clearing, in which the blurred outline
of cabin showed under the wide arms
; Of leafiess tree.
The melting snow had soaked
through the coat; her feet were wet
with the clinging fakes, and the chill
Of lowering temperature had set Ha-
eel shivering.
Roaring Bill halted at the door and
lifted her down from Silks back with
out the formality Of asking her leave.
He pulled the latchstring, and led her
in. Beside the rude stone fireplace
wood and kindling were piled in readi-
ness for use. Bill kicked the door
shut, dropped on his knees and started
the fire. In five minutes great blaze
leaped and cracked into the wide
throat of the chimney. Then he piled
on more wood. and turned to her.
''This is the house that Jack built"
he said, with sober face and a
twinkle in his gray eyes. "This Is the
man that lives in the house that Jack
built. And this"-he pointed mis-
chievously at her-''is the woman
who's going to love the man that lives
In the house that Jack built"
"That's lie!" she flashed storpily
through her chattering teeth.
"Wsll, wen see," he answered cheer

And with that he went out whistling:
