WHAT MADGE DID To SAVE
DICKY IN HIS MOTHERS EYES

For long minute after my moth
er-in-law's blunt query I sat staring
at the expensive photograph OF
Claire Foster with the bizarre in
scription TO Dicky scrawled across
its face. In my ears was echoing
her question with emphasis. What.
indeed. was this picture doing in my
husbands room?
The thing was a startling confrma-
ton OF DR.. Pettits hints. and OF my
own uneasiness concerning Dickys
silence. Was It possible shook
the thought from me hastily, and
my memory galloped back over our
brief acquaintance with the beauti-
full western girl whose face looked
out insouciantIy at me.
We had met her with DR. Petit,
whose devotion to her was patent.
and who had later told us OF mis-
engagement to her. Dicky and I
both had wondered-not at the
physicians choice. because he had
abundant cause for his infatuation.
but a. hers-and ] had not been
astonished when L had heard OF
their arrangement.

But I never had thought that
Dicky was especially interested in
her or attracted by her. He had
noted her undeniable resemblance to

quences OF her kidnapping of Junior.
Miss Foster had posed for the uu-
finished illustrations which the other
girls departure left.
But had heard my husband make
several unfavorable comments con-
corning her extreme modern ideas.
and her militant feminism. These
are two things which inconsistent
Dicky-himself a devotee Of every
fad which comes along-abhors in a
woman. And though l had known
that Miss Foster was much impress

cinating manner never have seen

PROLOGUE

A face haunted Cameron-a wom-
ans face 1t was there In the white
heart Of the dying campfire; 1t hung
In the shadows that lowered over the
nickering light It drifted In the dark
4 ness beyond.
This hour, when the day had closed
and the lonely desert night set In with
Its dead silence, was one In which
# Cameron's mind was thronged with
memories Of time long past-of a
home back In Peoria, OF woman he
4 had wronged and lost, and loved too
late. He was prospector for gold,
I'D hunter Of solitude, lover of the
dread, rock-ribbed intinitude, because
i be wanted to be alone to remember.
Then a snarp clink OF metal on
1 stone and soft pads Of hoofs In sand
prompted Cameron to reach for his
gun, and to move out Of the light Of
4 the waning campfire.
Figures darker than the gloom ap-
preached and took shape, and In the
light turned out to be those Of white
\ man and heavily packed burro.
Hello there" the man called, as
he came to a halt and gazed about
him. Il saw your fire. May make
camp here7''
Cameron came forth out Of the
Z shadow and greeted his visitor, whom
I he took for prospector like himself.
Cameron resented the breaking Of his
lonely campfire vigil, but he respect
ed the law Of the desert.
The stranger thanked him, and then
I. slipped the pack from his burro.
4 Then he rolled out his pack and began
1 Preparations for a meal. The camp
fre burst into bright blaze, and by
its light Cameron saw a man whose
gray hair somehow did not seem to
make him old, and whose stopped
! shoulders did not detract from an i'm
I preston Of rugged strength.
Another of those strange desert
pr0spectors In whom there was some
relentless driving power besides the
lust for gold! Cameron felt that be-
tween this man and himself there was
! q subtle affinity, vague and underlined.
I perhaps born OF the divination that
here was desert wanderer like HIM
\ self, perhaps born of deeper, an un-
1ntelligib!e relation having its roots
i back In the past. A long-forgotten
I sensation stirred in Cameron's breast,
one so long forgotten that he could
" not ~ n:1f Skin tn
i pain
. When he awakened he found, to HIS
{ surprise. that his companion had de-
the north. There was +no water In
that direction. Cameron shrugged bis
shoulders; 1t was not his affair; hs
had his own problems. And straight
way he forgot his strange visitor.
