He sat down and his big voice
doomed into the receiver. Put that

He grabbed his hat and coat and was
gone
Jimmie sank dejectedly into the

Suddenly his relaxed form stiffened as

Carefully he adjusted perfectly new

Jimmie stood face to face with Beth
the chances are he would have appear

any restraint, he spoke from his heart.
Two hours later the boss let him

take the train he had been overtaken
by telegram informing him that the
big deal had gone through, and that
his presence In Chicago was not re-

however, which should be mailed with

that other men may take.
Dear girl | never meant TO tell you
all this, You always seemed so bright

daughter and hold her for a million

He pulled his coat aside that the
woman might see his gun. AS he did
so he glanced up the trail and saw the
married daughter and her husband
seated on a rock. Their interest was
so evident that the outlaw nearly for
got his fear-inspiring pose. To save
the situation he turned hastily TO the

trail made great speed impossible. Sew

When he came out of that he laughed
again and excitedly slapped his knee.
I'll do IT," he chuckled.
Beth Andrews came in next morn

CHEEKY smile, After she adjusted the
headpiece over her pretty head she
listened intently as a new voice came
to her Then her eyes grew misty and
her cheeks burned red. As the last
word died away she turned her eyes TO
Jimmie's desk, but he was just disap-
pearing into the private office. The
whir OF blank spaces ran on for a
minute and she heard the familiar
boom of Mr.. Mortons voice.
my Dear Miss Andrews: Permit
me to add few words to the foregoing
letter. From what I know OF James
Terrence, do not hesitate 10 say that
he is worthy of the love of any good
woman and believe that he would

cidedly, and led the way to their usual
table.
With her coat off she looked worse
than with il on. High collars did not
suit Mirlams short. plump neck, and
she looked choky and uncomfortable.
John felt somehow as IL a trick were
being played on him-the way he was

chased a gold brick. But the dinner
was unusually good and Miriam as en-
tertaining as ever. albeit not SO good
to look at, and all was progressing
nicely when the arrival OF a party OF
six at nearby table attracted their
attention
why, it's the giris," exclaimed Mir
lam in pleased surprise, and in mo-

ment she and John had Joined the jol-
ly group. Ordinarily John enjoyed
anything like this, but tonight he was
keeply conscious OF the dowdy appear
ance Miriam made among these dain-
tily dressed women. whose flmy
blouses and low necks seemed emf
nently the proper thing. Savagely he
cursed the day when he had "butted
in" on his wifes affairs. And the
worst OF II was that she seemed utter
ly unconscious OF her drab appear
ance. A cold horror gripped him.
What II she should refuse to give up

figure as he had so loved 10 see II,
filled him with hopeless rage. Who

muttered savagely, "and I was worse
than a fool to swallow IL"
But all things have an end. and at
last the dread evening was over and
they were at home.

sighed Miriam, "and | am not the least

girl was separated from her friends.
The couple in the lead ran up the trail

the proceedings. The girl. cut off from

four she appeared the least startled by
the sudden attack. But the angular.
middle-aged woman. who at short
range developed the shrewish features
of the habitual trouble-maker. seemed
TO be the hrst object of the demon
stration.
The man reined in his animal just
short of driving her off the grade.
You're Mrs. Morgan!" he roared
You're the rich Mrs. Morgan"

shrill. angry voice as she backed
away "How dare your"

The lady with the trouble breeding

I'm Mrs. Georgia Weeks. These are

The horses, prancing apparently in
an aimless manner, were pressing the

The party OF girls passed his hiding

Suddenly the watcher stiffened and
raised his glasses as a party of four
came into view around the point One
look caused his incidence TO vanish.
They're coming" he remarked TO his
horse. and swung into the saddle.
Quieting his nervous mount, he
watched the approaching party with a
queer. strained expression upon his
face. His gaze passed over the man
in the lead and also slighted the ma
tronly young woman who followed
him. He giared for a moment at the
angular. middle-aged woman who was
next in the file. then fastening gloat-
ing. triumphant eyes upon the 1.-THE,
dancing figure in the rear.

down to within few feet of the trail
and waited. AS the party came
abreast of him he gave a single pierre
