 When Bryce Cardigan walked down the gangpiank at the steamship dock in san Francisco, the first face he saw among the waiting crowd was Buck Ogilivy's. Ogilvy thrust forth a great speckIed paw for Bryce to shake. Bryce ignored it.
 "Why, don't you remember meY' Ogiliyy demanded. I'm Buck Ogilivy."
 Bryce looked him fairly in the eye and favored him with lightning wink q have never heard of you, MT. Ogilvy You are mistaking me for some one else"
 Sorry" Ogilvy murmured My mistake. Thought you were Bill Ker- rick, who used to be a partner of mine."
 Bryce nodded and passed on, hailed a taxicab, aid was driven to the San Francisco office of his company Five minutes later the door opened and Buck Ogilvy entered.
 q was a bit puzzled at the dock, Bryce" he explained as they shook hands, "but decided to play safe and then follow you to your office Whats up? Have you killed somebody, and are the detectives on your trail? If so, 'fess up and I'll assume the re- sponsibility for your crime, just to show you how grateful I am for that hundred"
 "No I wasn't being shadowed, Buck, but my principal enemy was coming down the gangplank right be hind me, and"
 "so was my principal enemy" Ogilvy interrupted What does our enemy look like?"
 Like ready money. And if he had seen me shaking hands with you, he'd have suspected connection between us later on. Buck, you have good job-about five hundred a month"
 Thanks, old man. I'd work for you For nothing. What are we going to do?"
 Build twelve miles of logging rail- road and parallel the line of the old wolf I spoke of a moment ago."
 Good news! We'll do it. How soon do you want it done?"
 "As soon as possible. You're the vice president and general manager"
 q accept the nomination. What do I do tirst2"
 "Listen carefully to my story, ana lyze my plan for possible weak spots, and then get busy, because after I have provided the funds and given the word Cor the rest is up to you. l must not be known in the transaction at all, because that would be fatal"
 Three hours later Ogilvy was in pos session of the most minute details of the situation in Sequoia, had tabu- lated, indeXed and cross-indeXed them in his ingenious brain and was ready for business-and so announced him. self. Always an enthusiast in all things, in his minds eye Mir. Ogilvy could already see a long trainload of logs coming down the Northern Cali fornia & Oregon railroad, as he and Bryce had decided to christen the ven ture.
 When Bryce Cardigan returned to Sequoia, his laborS, fn so far as the building of the road were concerned, had been completed. His agreement with Gregory of the Trinidad Redwood Timber company had been signed sealed and delivered; the money to

Arbor day was originated by J. Ster- ling Morton in Nebraska, January 4, 1872. The day was first observed in Missouri in 1889 when the legislature passed a law fixing the first Friday after the first Tuesday in April as a day when trees should be planted. Tn many of the schools in the country the day is observed.

 Carefully he dissected sand-dab and removed the backbone. 'Td give a ripe peach to learn the identity of the scheming buttinsky who bought old Cardigan's Valley of the Giants," he said presently.

 q dare say" he admitted lightly However, I didn't and aow I'm going to be punished for it, my dear; so don't roast me any more. By the way, that speckled hot-air fellow GSiivy, who Is promoting the Northern Cali fornia x Oregon railroad, is back in town again. I think I'll wire the San Francisco cffiee to look him up in Duns and Bradsteet's. I'd sleep whole lot more soundly tonight if I knew the answer to two very important questions"
 "What are they, Uncle Seth?" s'WeH, I'd like to know whether the N. c. O is genuine or screen to hide the opera tions of the Trinidad Red wood Timber company"
 "It might" said Shirley, with one of those sudden flashes of intuition pc culiar to women, "be a screen to hide | the operations of Bryce Cardigan. Now that he knows you aren't going to renew his hauling contract, he may have decided to build his own logging railroad"
 After a pause the Colonel made answer: "No, I have no fear of that It would cost five hundred thousand | dollars to build that twelve-mile line and bridge Mad river, and the Cardi- gans haven't got that amount of money. Whats more, they can't get it.
 "But suppose" she persisted, "that the real builder of the road should prove to be Bryce Cardigan, after all What would you do?"
 Colonel Pennington's eyes twinkled.
 "I greatly fear, my dear, I, should make noise like something doing. And as for Bryce Cardgan-well, that young man would certainly know he'd been through fight"
 q wonder if he'll fight to the last, Uncle Seth"
 "Why, believe he will" Pennington replied soberly.
 "Td love to see you beat him.
 Shirley Why my dear, you're growing ferocious." Her uncle's tones were laden with banter, but his counte- nance could not conceal the pleasure her last remark had given him.
 Shirley thrust out her adorable chin aggressively. Sick 'em. Tiger she answered. Shake lem up, boyr
 You bet I'll shake lem up," the Colonel declared joyously. He paused with a ruorsel of food on his fork and waved the fork at her progressively. You stimulate me into activity, Shr- ley. My mind has been singularly dH,I of late I have worried unnecessarily, but now that I know that you are with me, I am inspired. I'll tell you how we'll fix this new railroad, if it exhibits signs of being dangerous" Again he smote the table, "We1l sew lem up tighter than new buttonhole."
 Do tell me how." she pleaded eagerly.
