orable Judgment Of youth. 'Did you
leave the moral code at home when
you came In over the ice?"
He smiled little. Morality Is the
average conduct Of the average man
at a given time and place. 1t is based
on custom and expediency. The rules
made for Drogheda won't fit Dawson
or Nome. Meteetse does not hold her
self disgraced but honored. She counts
her boy far superior to the other
youngsters of the village, and he is
so considered by the tribe. / am told
she lords it over her sisters"
A faint flush Of anger crept into her
cheeks. 'Your view Of morality puts
us on level with the animals. will

eve must discuss 1t. must get you
to see that Meteetse and what she
stood for in my life have nothing to
do with us. They belong to my past.
She doesn't exist for either of us
isn't In any way a part of my present
or future"
"She exists for me-" answered Sheba
listlessly. She felt suddenly old and
weary. 'But I can't talk about it.
Please go. / want to be alone"
Again Macdonald paced restlessly
down the room and back. The man

his energy were Gagged.
"Why don't you goT" the girl plead

He stopped in front Of her. I'm
going to marry you, Sheba. You're
mine."
"No. Never!" she cried. "I'll take
the boat and go home first"
"You've promised to marry me.
You're going to keep your word and
be glad Of it all your life"
She shook her head. "No."
"Yes." Macdonald had always
shown remarkable restraint with her.
He had kissed her seldom, and always
with kind of awe at her young pur-
ity. Now he caught her by the Shout
ders.
The color famed into her face. She
looked hot to the touch, an active
volcano ready to erupt. There was an
odd feeling in her mind that this big
man was stranger to her.
"Take your hands from me-" she or
dered.
"Do you think I'm going to give you
up now-now, after I've won you
because Of fool scruple in your
pretty head? You don't know me. It's
too late. I love you-and I'm going
to protect both of us from your prutl-
ishness."
His arms closed on her and he
crushed her o him, looking down hum
grily into the dark little face.
"Let me CO." she cried fiercely,
struggling to free herself.
For answer he kissed the red lips,
the flaming cheeks, the angry eyes.
Then. coming to his senses, he pushed
her from him, turned, and strobe heav-
lily from the room.

than the desire that she should know
the truth.
"Send her away" he urged. 'Don't
ask any questions. She has been sent
to hurt you."
A fawnlike fear flashed into the star

And at that there came a star-fiash
into the soft eyes and lifted tilt Of
the chin cut fine as cameo. She
turned proudly to the Indian woman.
"What is it that you have to tell me
about this boys fatherf"
Meteetse began to speak. At the

an occasional cigar with the land agent
and aired his views on politics and az
fairs social. He left the boat at the
big bend.
Not till a week later did Elliot re-
turn up the river. He was asleep at
the time the Sarah passed the big
bend. but next morning he discovered
that Selfridge and Dustin had come
aboard during the night. In the after
noon he came upon a real surprise
when he found Meteetse and her little
boy Coimac seated upon box on the
lower deck where freight for local
points was stored. y
His guess was that they were local
passengers. but wharf after wharf
slipped behind them and the two still
remained on board. They appeared
to know nobody else on the Sarah.
though once Gordon met Dustin Just as
he was hurrying away from the Indian
woman. 5e
Meteetse transferred with the other
Kusiak passengers at the river juno
ton. The field agent was not the only
one on board who wondered where
she was going. Selfridge was con-
sumed with curiosity, and when she
and the boy got off at Kusiak, he could
restrain himself no longer. Gordon
saw Wally talking with her. Meteetse
showed him an envelope which eVi-
IDENTIFY had an address written upon 1t.
for the little man pointed out to her
the direction in which she must 60.
Since leaving Kusiak nearly two
weeks before, no word had reached
Gordon of Sheba. AS soon as he had
finished dinner at the hotel, he walked
out to the Paget house and sent In
his card.
Sheba came into the hall to meet
him from the living room where she
had been sitting with the man she ex-
pected to marry next week. She gave
little murmur Of pleasure at sight Of
him and held out both hands.
II was afraid you weren't going to
get back in time. I'm so glad" she
told him warmly.
He managed to achieve a smile.
"When is the great day."
"Next Thursday. OF course we're

From the folds Of her shawl she
drew letter. The girl glanced at the
address, then opened and read what
was written. She looked up, puzzled,
first at the comedy, fiat-footed Indian
woman and afterward at the handsome
little brown-faced papoose. She turned
to Gordon.
'"This letter says I am to ask this
woman who is the father Of her boy.
What does 1t mean?"
Gordon knew instantly what 1t
meant, though he could not guess who
had dealt the blow. The impulse to

Selfridge was not eager to meet his
chief, but he knew he must report at
once. He stopped at his house only
long enough to get into fresh clothes
and from there walked down to the
office.
1t had been the intention Of Mac
donald to go direct from Sheba to his
Office, but the explosion brought about
by Meteetse had sent him out into the
hills for a long tramp. He was in
a stress of furious emotion, and until
he had worked off the edge of 1t by
hard mushing, the cramped civiliza-
ton of the town stifled him.
Hours later he strobe into the office
OF the company. Wally lay asleep In
a swivel chair, his fat body sagging
and his head fallen sideways in such a
way as to emphasize the plump folds
Of his double chin. His eyes opened.
They took in his chief slowly. Then,
In a small panic, he jumped to his
feet.

man harshly.
In hurried attempt to divert the
anger Of Macdonald, his assistant
made a mistake. "Say, Maci Who

He stopped. The big man was glar-
ing sayagely at him. But Macdonald

Elliot rose and looked across at the
blue-ribbed mountains. His square
jaw was set when he turned it back
toward Diane.
"She isn't going to marry him If /
can help It," he said quietly.
He walked out Of the gate and down
the walk toward his hotel.
A message was waiting for him there
from his chief in Seattle. 1t called him
down the river on business.

REPUBLICANS DEMAND AUDIT.
Think People Should Have Check on
 BIIIions They Have Given.

Last year Congress appropriated more money to be expended in war contracts than any other nation en- gagged in war. The estimates for the appropriations during the current year are approximately $32,0OO, O,090,OOO.
 Twice during the past year the Republicans in Congress attempted to have a congressional committee created for the purpose of supervising and auditing war contract expendi- lures. Even Democratic members ad- init there is great waste and extrava- gance and even graft - in the ex- expenditure of such vast sums. But the Democrats refuse to agree to any auditing or supervising committed. Twice they have defeated such pro- posals.
 Congressman Tess, chairman of the Republican Congressional Committee, says he cannot understand the "sensi- tiveness' of the Democratic Congress whenever the proposition is made to have an audit of the public's money He says the Republicans will, if they control the next Congress, create such an auditing committee. The people have willingly supplied the billions. They are entitled to know how it is being spent.
