nose and lips.
The fury of her resistance only
made her the more desirable in his

bloodshot eyes leering into hers, his
black beard sweeping her cheek.

Joyce, making one final, desperate
effort, broke once more out of Rath-

and ran screaming along the passage.
She got the front door open.

in wild abandonment.
Then Railways arms closed about
her from behind, and Joyce ceased to
struggle.

An extraordinary look came over
Railways face, the look of the fox,
the wolverine. He seemed to reflect
and suddenly he pounced.
In an instant he had gripped Joyce
by the arms, imprisoning the hand that
held the knife. With a laugh he tore
the hand open, took out the knife, and
thrust it into his belt. He strained
the girl against him.
'Ive had enough of this nonsense,
my dearie" he cried triumphantly

CHAPTER XVI
Joyce or a Gold Mine

Lee did not go as far as the forest,
which doomed out Of the distance be-
You'd the ridges Of broken ground He
waited some little distance away, I'M
til the priests sleigh had gone. Then
he went quietly back toward the log
house.
Lights burned inside. A strip of
cloth had been pinned before the win
dow of the largest room-the one in
which Lee had camped with Joyce for
brief hour upon that afternoon Of
their arrival This was the room that
Lee had selected in his mind for their
occupancy during their brief honey
moon.
But not the least spasm twisted
Lees face at the realization that an
other had supplanted him in that re
lationship with Joyce. There are
some phases Of emotion so tense that
they appear to neutralize themselves
by destroying their own manifesto
tons,
Lees expression showed not the
smallest deviation from the normal
now. 1t was quiet, dispassionate, and
very cold. Softly Lee approached the
window and, STOPPING, looked between
the frame and the curtain of cloth.
The window on this side had piece
missing out of the corner, and ovei
the little gap some one had pasted 6
piece of paper. With the barrel of his
rifle Lee quietly made a small hole
In 1t.
From there he could catch glimpses
of the two figures. He heard their
voices. He was in no hurry. He was
waiting till they chose to finish their
conversation Then, In due time, Rath-
way would stand in line with his
sights and he would make an end of
him.
And the wild turmoil in Lees heart
seemed divorced from his brain, which
remained impassive and cold and
steady as the piece Of mechanism In
his hands

Horse No Flafferer

Because of the interest America

and because the prince is so often
thrown from his horse when playing
polo, the following words of Ben
Jonson, Rare Ben," who lived 1874

show that 'horse sense" is the same

Railway was trembling with eager

past and take her back, but If she
doesn't want me and does want you,
guess l can't hold her against her will.
So I'm ready to take my mine instead
and close the bargain. What dyou say
to it, Anderson"
Lee suspected some trick, but the
anxiety on Railways face, the trem-
bling tones of his voice showed that
his avarice was stronger passion
than that for Joyce. And, despite the
vileness of the proposal, Lee realized
that in no other way could Joyce be
saved.
He knew that even then Railway
was contemplating treachery, but there
was nothing else to do. If he refused,
Railway would shoot him in cold
blood-and the law would Justify him.

with her to make up your mind. And
If you don't accept, or try any tricks
on me, by heaven, it's your last
minute !"
Lee nodded, took Joyce by the arm,
and drew her inside the room. Rath-
way stood in the doorway, covering
him with his pistol, but Lee quietly
closed the door on him, and Railway
accepted the situation. Lee went back
to the girl.
Joyce! Joyce, darling"
ooh, Lee, can't bear it. thought

me away, Leel Help me now, as
you offered to help me on the range,
though we can never be anything to

safety, where / need never see that
man again, or think of him, or of this
place, or-or ever remember anything
Of the past"
She chung to him, sobbing in terror
and loneliness. Lee, holding her,
raised her hands to his lips.
"Joyce, dearest, I'll do as he pro-
poses, then. I'll show him the mine,
and then I'll take you away somewhere
south, where you need never think of
him or of this place again. And If
that wretched marriage can't be an
nulled, I'll be contented to be your
brother for the rest Of our lives, DEAR"
He flung the door open. Railway
was standing uneasily behind it, and
Lee felt pretty sure that he had been
trying to listen with his ear to the ILL
fitting iamb.
1--WE decided to accept your propo-
sition, Railway" said Lee. '"The
terms are these: I guarantee nothing
as to the mine merely to conduct you
to the place where Pelly worked for
gold. I'll show you the secret en-
