 You say that with a good deal of feel ing. But there's one thing more that ! have a right to hear about, My mother! ! Why do you never tell me of herr"
 The big man stirred and the chair greaned beneath him.
 Because it tortures me to speak of her, Anthony" said the husky voice. Fortunes me, lad!' . q let the locked room go,' said Anthony firmly, "but my mother-she is different. Why, sir, I don't even know how she looked! Dad. it's my right"
 The sharply indrawn breath of John Woodbury cut him short.
 "She died in giving birth to you, Anthony"
 "Dear God! She died for me?'
 And in the silence which came over the two men it seemed as if another presence were in the room. John Woodbury stood at the fireplace with bowed head, and Anthony shaded his eyes and stared at the floor until he caught glimpse of the other and went gently to him.
 He said, "I'm sorrier than lot of words could tell you. Will you sit down, sir, and let me tell you how l came to press, home the question:"
 If you want to have it that way"
 They resumed their chairs.

this portrait on the wall, and then he knew why the gray man at the Garden had said: 'sSon, whose your naother?" For this was she into whose eyes he now stared.
 She had the same deep, dark eyes, the same black hair, the same rather aQuiline, thin face which her woman's eyes and love- ly mouth made beautiful, but otherwise the same. His was simply q copy of that head hewn with 2 rough chisel-a sculptor's clay model rather than a smoothly finished re- production.
 To the second picture he turned with a deeper hope, but his heart fell at once, for all he saw. was an enlarged photograph, two mountains, snow-topped in the distance, and in the foreground, first mighty pine with the branches Topped smoothly from the side as though some tremendous ax had trimmed it; behind this ranch house and farther back the smooth waters of lake.
 West it must be, but where? North or South? West, and from the West surely that gray man from the Garden had come, and from the West John Bard himself. Those two mountains, spearing the sky with their sharp horns-they would be the pole by which he steered his course.

 Not for me-" he said. "I ought to pay you-ten times that much for the sport compared to this polo is nothing"
 ''Take the horse,' said Werther, "because no one else could ride him.
 And now any one can ride him, so don't want him. answered Woodbury.
 Then on him fell, ar it seemed, the ap-- preaching shadow of the big gray man and he looked up with something of start into the keen eyes of Drew.
 Son. said the big man, "you look sort of familiar to me. I'm asking your pardon, but who was your mother?" The eyes of young Woodbury narrowed and the two stood considering each other gravely for long moment.
