iana's men took the morocco case from her hands and showed her aside without ceremony.
 Quintana leered at Darragh over his leveled weapons:
 My frien Smith" he exclaimed softly 50 it is you, then, who have twire try to rob me of my property,
 An! You recollec'? Yes? How you have rob me of a pacquet which contain only some chocolate?
 parragh's face was burning with helpless rage.
 My frien', Smith," repeated Quin- tana, do you recollec' what it was you say to me? Yes? . How often it is the unexpected which so usually happen? You are quite oorrec', lami Smith, Ii has happen"
 He gianced at the open jewel box which one of the masked men held, then like lightning, his sinister eyes focused on Darragh.
 "So,' he said, 'it was also you who rob me las night of my property What you do 10 Nick Salzar eho"
 Killed him. said Darragh, dry tipped. nerved for death. II ought to have killed you, too, when I had the chance. But-I'm white. you see"
 At the insult flung into his face over the muzzles of his own pistols, Quintana burst into laughter.
 "Ah. You should have shot me-. You are quite right, my frien. mus say you have behave yer foolish"
 He laughed again so hard that DarraGh felt his pistols shaking against his body.
 50 you have kill Nick Salzar, eh 9" continued Quintana with perfect good humor. My frien'. am obiige to you for what you do You are sur prise7 Eh' It Is yer simple, my frien Smith. What l want of man who can be kill? F,h7 Of what use Is he to me? Noila."
 He laughed. patted Darrash on the with one or his pistols.
 You, iow-you could be of use. Why? Because you are better man than was Nick Salzar He who kills is better than the dead.
 Then, swiftly his dark features al- tered:
 My frlen' Smith" he said, T have come here for my property, not to kill. I have recover my property Why shall I kill you? To say that l am better man? Yes. perhaps But also I should be oblige to say that also am fool Yaas A poor damfool."
 Without shifting his eyes he made q motion with one pistol to. his men. As they turned and entered the thicket, Quintana's intent gaze be- 3ame murderous.
 If mus kill you shall do so. Otherwise l have sufficient trouble to keep me from ennul My frien', am going home to enjoy my property. l If you live or die it signifies nothing to me. No. Why. for the pleasure of killing you, should I bring your dirty gendarmes on my heels?"
 He backed away to the edge of the .hicket venturing one swift and evil glance at the girl who stood as -hough dazed.

into her lovers eyes with gaze so chaste, so obvious to all things earthly, that the still purity of her face seemed a sacrament. and he scarcely dared touch the childish lips she offered.
 But when the sacrament of the kiss had been accomplished. she rested one hand on his shoulder and rose, and drew him with her.
 Then his moment came: he drew the emblazoned case from his breast, opened it, and, in silence, laid it in her hands. The blaze of the jewels in the sunshine almost blinded them.
 That was his moment.
 The next moment was Quintana's.
 Darragh hadn't a chance. Out of the bushes two pistols were thrust hard against his stomach. Quin- tana's face was behind them. He wore no mask but the three men with him watched him over the edges of dkerchiefs-over the sights of leveled rifles, too.
 The youthful Grand Duchess had turned deadly white. One of Quin-'

 "All you have 10 give me, then"

 Then that young man dropped on both knees at her feet and laid his lips to her soft hands.
 In trembling silence she stood for a moment, then slowly sank on both knees to face him across their clasped hands.
 So, in the gilded cathedral of. the woods, pi!lared with silver, and azure domed, the betrothal of these two was sealed with clasp and lip.

GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER III.

It was afternoon when Darra el awoke in his bunk, stiff, sore, con. fused in mind and battered in body.
 Wier, hearing him astir came in
 How long have you been back, Did you meet the ladies with your tiivrer?" demanded Darragh impa- tienty.
 I got to Five Lakes station just as the train came in. The young ladies were the only passengers who got out. l waited to get their two steamer trunks and then I drove them to Harrod Place"
 Where did you say I was?" asked Darragh.
 Out in the woods, somewhere. Fhe last I saw Of them, Mrs Ray had their hand bags and Jerry and Tom were shouderng their trunks"
 I'm going up there right away" interrupted Darragh excitedv,
 In pathetic attempt to spruce Up, he knotted the red bandanna around his neck and pinched Salzars souch hat into peak.
 You look like one of Clinch's buns" remarked W-ier with native honesty.
 Darrage, chagrined went to his bunk pulled the morocco case from under the pillow, and showed it into the bosom of his flannel shirt
 That's the main thing anyway" he thought, Then, turning to Wier. he asked whether Eve and Stormont had awakened,
 It appeared that Trooper Stormont had saddled up and cantered away shortly after sunrise, leaving word that he must hunt up his comrade, Trooper Lannis. at Ghost Lake,
 They're coming back this evening" added Wier. He asked you to look out for Clinch's step daughter"
 She's all right here. Can't you keep an eve on her Ralph?"
 Very well, sir. But suppose she takes it into her head to leave---'
 Darragh called back, galv; She can't: she hasn't any clothes," And away he strode in the gorgeous sun shine of a magnificent autumn day, all the clean and vigorous youth of him afire in anticipation of a reunion which the letter from his lady-love had transfgured into a tryst.
 For, in that amazing courtship Of d single day, he never dreamed that he had won the heart of that sad white faced, hungry chiId in rags siiken tatters still stained with the blood of massacre-the very soles of her shoes still charred by the embers 1f her own home.
 About half an hour later he came to his senses with distinct shock.
 Straight ahead of him on the trail, and coming directly toward him, moved a figure in knickers and belted tweed
 Flecked sunlight slanted or the strangers cheek and burnished hair, dappling face and figure with moving. golden spots.
 Instantly Darragh knew and trembed.
 sBut Theodorica of Esthonia had known him only in his uniform.
 As she came toward him, lovely ina her 1.-the and rounded grace. only friendly curiosity eazed at him from her blue eyes.
 Suddenly she knew him, went scar let to her yellow hair. then white; and tried 10 speak-but had no control of the short, rosy upper lip which only u,,ivered as he took her hands.
 The forest was dead still around them save for the whisper Of paintnt leaves sitting down from sunlit vault above
 Finally she said in ghost Of q voice: My friend. "a.

Rabbit and Sheep Comrades.

An Ontario reader of the Montreal
Family Herald says he had a large
white rabbit given him this winter by
a neighbor. He had no place to put
it, so he made a pen in the sheep
house for it. The rabbit was kept
there for about a week, then it was
left in with the sheep. The bunny
made friends with one of the sheep
and slept on it's back at night. When
the sheep were put out to pasture the
rabbit went with them and stayed
close by its friends head while eating.
Whenever the sheep would lay down
bunny would jump onto its back and
lay there until the sheep got up again.
When it is time for the sheep to come
home bunny takes the lead in place of
a bellwether and brings them right to
their barn.
