So strong was the pull OF the dog

back at them. His dog was the finest

AS for the girl. 1t would be dis
the truth. But she was young. Young
people get over things quickly. Be
sides, 1t was her fathers arrange
ment, not his. He wasn't responsible.
But when at supper in the board
ing house he saw her at the other end
of the table, he was a bit sorry. He
noticed that the girl was Drowned
with Southern suns, but that she was
pretty and looked thoroughbred. Also,
were nice.
She was present again at the meet
ing of handlers and owners and club
officials, who packed the parlors and
hall after supper. She was to be the
first woman who ever ran dog in
a national champion race. he heard
somebody say. It occurred to him
that she must be brave, for she didn't
seem to be the pushing kind.
T>He order in which dogs are to
i run is decided by lot. He had
hoped Drake would be drawn for the
first Of the week. Hut in the lottery
Drake came on Friday.

Gruelling heats they were that tested

AS for BURTON, he went out to the
testing ground but once. He was not
used to hard horseback riding. and he
wanted to be fresh on Friday. But
once every day. either in the morn
ing or the afternoon, he saw the girl
set out on her pony. She was learn
ing the course, getting ready for her
own race.
Most Of the time when she wasn't
riding the course. she spent with the
dog, exercising him all alone on the
streets of the town. Once when Bur-
ton went out to the barn lot to look
at him, where he waited chained to

BURTON glanced at the crippled
- trainer with slightly hardened
eyes. He resented this intrusion of
the human element into a deal, par.
ticularly when that human element
was a girl. 1t was way of break
ing things up. However. for a while
things went smoothly, though the
conversation was carried on in low
cred tones. Three thousand was the
price agreed upon. 1t was a good
price for Arnold to get if the dog
did not win the championship. 1t
was a poor price IL he did.
For to own national champion
means a steady income from his pup
pies. 1t brings fame to the owner
and to the trainer. He has trained
one champion--maybe he can train
another. Men send him their dogs;
his price goes up. like that Of the
teacher who has turned out a prima
donna. To own and train a national
champion may put a man like
Arnold on the map.
And now he was gambling with the
chance His face showed the strain
he was under. However, It was ne
who set the price. But when Bur-
ton, thinking the matter closed, got
out his check book. again the crippled
trainer introduced the element OF
mystery.
"One minute, sir" he said. There's
something I ought to tell you. I'm
sellin' Drake because I can't afford
