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 grinned. He remembered a 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 a 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 Kamatlah 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. He has
the fortunate gift of commanding the
admiration of friend and foe alike
The lady who is his wife is secretly the
greatest of his slaves, but she tries moi
to let him know how much he has cap
tured her Imagination. For Genevieve
Macdonald cannot quite understand
herself, how so elemental an emotion
as love can have pierced the armor OF
her sophistication.

You mean she will get him on the
rebound" said Diane blunty
THAT isn't nice way to put It, . He
has always liked her very much. He
is fond of her for what she is. What
attracted him in me were the things

"And Gordon likes you, l suppose,

Sheba did not resent the little note
of friendly sarcasm. II suppose he

have to put up with me-"
The arrival of Elliot interrupted con-
fidences. He had come. he said, to re-
ceive congratulations.

He's great man and you are not. But

That's a double, left-handed compli-
ment," laughed Gordon. But you can't
say anything that will hurt my feelings
today, Di. Isn't that your baby l hear
crying? What heartless mother you
are !"
Diane gave him the few minutes
alone with Sheba that his gay smile
had asked for. Get out with you"
she said. laughing. go to the top of

"Come along, Sheba. Wen start now
on the golden TRAIL" said Elliot.
She walked as If she loved 1t. Her
long. slender legs moved rhythmically
and her arms swung true as pendu-
lums.

promised. Sheba drank 1t In happily.

well, and was there ever more
beautiful night before?"
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 be near
her, to hear the laughter bubbling In
her throat, to touch her crisp, blue
black hair as he adjusted the scarf

They were no exception to the rule
that lovers are egoists. The world for

classes. One included Sheba O'Neill

No matter how far afeld their talk be-

Brown. II find that I can load
Just thrice as much by going to town

Zone time we farmers thought that
1t would be big expense,
But now we've all begun to see its
just good common sense.
Today we're going to town and back
in less than half the time.
And saving much in wear and care
that dirt road was crime"
THE money that We yearly spent on
trying to make 1t stay
Would in short time have easily built
the road We have today,
For this new road has brought the
farm much closer to town

Diane changes Her Mind.
The news Of Shebas safety had
been telephoned to Diane from the
roadhouse, SO that all the family from
Peter down were on the porch to well
come her with mingled tears and
kisses. Since Gordon had to push on
to the hospital to have Holt taken care
Of, 1t was Macdonald who brought the
girl home. The mine-owner declined
rather brusquely an invitation to stay
to dinner on the plea that he had bust
ness at the office which would not wait.
mpulsively Sheba held out both her
hands to him. Believe me, | am thank
Ing you with the whole of my heart,
my friend. And Pm praying for you

THE MREHAN ACCIDENT.

The following account OF the acci-
dent wherein Charles Meehan re-
ceiyed severe injuries mentioned last
week. is taken from the Florence
Mining News:
While returning from Crystal Falls
Tuesday night in his Crow Elkhart
touring car, Charles Meehan received
painful injuries, when his car turned
completely over and buried him be-
meath II.
The accident occurred at the sharp
curve about a mile on the other side
OF the Brule river bridge on the
Florence-Crystal Falls road Just be-
fore reaching the curve his lights
suddenly went out. and in making the
curve In the darkness, he steered too
far out and hit the ditch on the side
Of the road. which threw the car
completely over. Meehan. who was
alone, was pinned under the car. the
back and front seat lying across his
chest and back. After a great deal of
struggling and hard work. despite the
injuries. he managed to extricate him
self and walked 10 the Brule Mangan-
ese Co.'S exploration camp, distance
OF about a mile and a half. where he
secured Gillie. Liyernois TO go TO Flor
ence and get car and bring him to
this city, where temporary relief was
given by Dr. Wilson.
Wednesday afternoon he was remov-
ed to St. Georges hospital at Iron
Mountain, where the X-ray disclosed
his injuries to be broken collar bone,
right shoulder dislocated and the left
shoulder blade broken. 1t will prob
ably be seevral months before he will
be able to be about again.
The car was damaged somewhat, the
top and windshield being broken and
several other parts damaged
The injured man was brought back
from the hospital by auto early this
week to his home.
