Then Tinker Bob left Major and

Chief was such a sleepy fellow that
he might be a little late. He met

Sammy started away on the jump.

King heard another sound that was
familiar and he knew hat the Chief

out to meet him and tell him what
he should do. Said he to Chief

CHAPTER X.

A careful analysis of Shirley's feel
ings toward Bryce Cardigan lmmedi'
ately following the incident In PEN
nington's woods, had showed her that
under more propitlous circumstances
she might have fallen In love with that
tempestuous young man in sheer rec
ognition of the many lovable and man
ly qualities she had discerned in him.
AS an offset TO the credit side OF
Bryce's account with her however.
there appeared certain debts in the
consideration Of which Shirley always
lost her temper and was Immediately

quite certain she loathed the unfor
tunate man.
He had been an honored and tfor
welcome guest In the Pennington home
one night. and the following day had
assaulted his host. committed great
bodily injuries upon the latter's en-
ployees for little or no reason save the
satisfaction of an abomlnable temper,
made threats Of further violence, de-
clared his unfaltering enmity to her
nearest and bestowed relative. and In
the next breath had had the insoience
to pirate Of his respect and admiration
for her.
However, all of these grave crimes
and misdemeanors were really insig-
nlficant compared with his browning
offense. What had Infatuated Shirley
was the fact that she had been at some
pains to inform Bryce Cardigan that
she loathed him-whereat he had
looked her over coolly, grinned little.
and declined to believe heri Then.
seemingly as II fate had decreed that
her futility should be impressed upon
her still further, Bryce Cardigan had
been granted an opportunity to save.
In strlkingly calm, heroic and pain
full manner, her and her uncle from
certain and horrible death. thus plac-
ing upon Shirley an obligation that
was rs Irritating to acknowledge as 1t
was futile to attempt to reclprocate.
That was where the shoe pinched
Before that day was over she had
been forced to do one Of two things
acknowledge in no uncertain terms her
Indebtedness to him, or remain silent
and to be convicted Of having been, in
plain language, rotter. So she had
telephoned him and purposely left
ajar the door to their former friendly
relations.
Monstrous! He had seen the open
door and deliberately slammed It In
her face. Luckily for them both she
had heard, all unsupported by him as
he slowly hung the receiver on the
hook, the soliloquy wherein he gave
her pointed hint of the distress with
which he abdicated-which knowledge
was all that deferred her from despls-
Ing him with the fervor Of a woman
scorned.
The fascination which lighted
candle holds for moth Is too well
known to require further calculation
here. In yielding one day to a desire
to visit the Valley of the Giants, Shir.
ley told herself that she was going
there to gather wild blackberries. She
had been thinking Of certain black
berry pie, which thought naturally in
duced reflection on Bryce Cardigan
and reminded Shirley Of her first visit
to the Giants under the escort of boy
in knickerbockers.
Her meeting with MORA McTavish
that day. and the subsequent friend
ship formed with the woods-boss'
daughter. renewed all her apprehen-
sions. On the assumption that Shir-
ley and Bryce were practically
strangers to each other (an assump-
ton which Shirley. for obvious rea-
sons, did not attempt to dissipate),
Moira did not hesitate to mention
Bryce very frequently. To her he was
the one human being In the world
utterly worth while. and II Is nat
