It was not that Lenore felt she
could not spare. for some months,
her mothers guiding influence 1t
was merely that sea voyages cost
money, and money at that particu-
lar time was scarce and growing
scarcer about the Hardenworth
apartment. Seemingly the only
course that remained was to move
forward the date of her marriage to
Ned. at present set for the following
spring.
She dried her eyes, powdered her
nose; and for all the late storm made
a bewitching picture as she tripped
to the door in answer to her f1ance' S
knock. Lenore Hardenworth was in
all probability the most beautiful girl
in her own stylish set and one of the
most handsome women in her native
city. She was really well known
remembered long and in many places
for her hair. It was simply SHIN
mering gold, and it framed a face OF
fowerlike beauty-an even featured
oval face, softly tinted and daintily
piquant.
Ned came in soberly, kissed the
girls inviting lips. then sat beside
her on the big divan. Studying his
grave face. she waited for him tc
speak.
Bad news" he said at last.
What is ftp" She spoke almost
breathlessly. and he turned towarj
her with wakened interest.

ED planned to rise early. but
I'M sleep was heavy upon him
when he tried to wakeu. It
was after ten when he had finished
breakfast and was ready to Degin &C

His first work, of course, was to see
about hiring a launch.
Ten minutes ride took him to the
office of his friend, Rex Nard, vice
president of a great marine-outfitting
establishment. and five minutes con-
versation with this gentleman told him
all he wanted to know. Yes, as 1t
happened Nard knew of a corking
craft that was at that moment in
need of a charterer, possibly just the
thing that Cornet wanted.
This particular craft was built for
a scientific expedition sent out by one
of the great museums" Nard ex-
planned 1T isn't just a fisherman's

snug little dining saloon, and two foxy

How about cargo space?"
"I don't know exactly-but it was
big enough for several tons of wal

thousand doIlars-seventy-fiv per for

Ned stood up, his black eyes spark
ling with citation, and put on his hat.
Where do find her?"
Hunt up Ole Knutsen, at his ad-
dress" Nard wrote an instant on a
strip of paper. THE name of the craft

and executed a charter after ten min

Nothing very important" he told
her casually. I'm afraid I started
you with my lugubrious tones. I've
got to go away for three months"
Ned! You can't! After all our
plans. I won't hear of it"
wait, dearest the man pleaded.
"Of course 1 won't go if you say
not"
''Of course say not"
But it's a real opportunity-to
make forty or fifty thousand Wait
till tell you about it, anyway"
He told her simply: the exact plan
that his father had proposed. Her
interest quickened as he talked.
The idea of trading obsolete gowns
for beautiful furs was particularly
attractive to her. I've got some old
things I could spare" she told him
eagerly. why couldn't you take
these with you and trade them to
some old squaw for furs?"
81 could! don't see why 1
shouldn't bring you back some beau
ties"
I'd like some silver fox-and enough
sable for a great wrap. Oh, Ned
do you think you could get them for
me?"
His face seemed rather drawn and
mirthless as he returned her stare.
1t had been too complete a victory.
1t can be said for the man that he
had come with the idea of persuading
Lenore to let him go, to let him
leave her arms for the sake of the
advantages to be accrued from the
expedition, but at least he wanted
her to show some regret.
Ned, what kind of a trip will this
be?' she asked him.
He was more held by the under
tone of excitement In her voice than
by the question itself What it is?"
he asked. What do you mean-?'
I mean-will it be a hard trip
one of danger and discomfort" -. .
II don't think so. I'm going to
get a comfortable yacht-it will be a
launch, Of course, but a big, COM
Portable one-have a good cook and
pleasant surroundings. It's all in
my hands-hiring crew. schooner,

father told a wild story about cold
and hardship and danger, but 1 don't
believe there's a thing in it
Il don't either. 1t makes me
laugh, those wild and woolly stories
about the North This hardship they
talk about is all poppycock, and you
know it-and the danger. too. To
hear your father talk, and some of
the others of the older generation,
you'd think they had been through
the Internal regions! They didn't
have the sporting instincts that've
been developed in the last genera
ton, Ned"
She paused. and he stared at her
blankly He knew perfectly well
that some brilliant idea had occurred
to her; he was simply waiting for
her to tell it. She moved nearer and
slipped her hand between his.
Ned, I've a wonderful plan" she
told him There's no reason why
we should be separated for three
months. You say the hiring Of the
launch, itinerary, and everything is
in your hands. Why not take mother
and me with you?"
My dear"
Why not? Tell me that! The
doctor has just recommended her a
sea trip. Where could she get a
better one? OF course you'd have to
get a big. comfortable launch"
Take you'll should say I will
take you-and your mother, toe" he
was exclaiming with the utmost en-
thusiasm and delight. "Lenore, it
will be d regular party-a joy ride
such as we never took before"
