very fine fellow. But if I meet him scme day perhaps we'll see which is the best man"
 He's pretty strong, Dave" Syl- via leased Better be carefulp
 Whereupon Dave lost his tenn per altogether. Maybe I should be careful, and maybe you should bt careful, too What I'm saying is either you give him up, or I'm through!p
 That was too much for the spir- tied Sylvia. Whether or not she cared for Jack Fulton, she wasn'! going to take orders about it from Dave. Dave never had actually asked her to marry him, although she had given him opportunity enough.
 All right; you're through!" sht said and whisked herself out oi his presence.
 Dave had not expected that rc suit, but he had gone too far to retreat. He had thought that -Syl- via would bow to his ultimatum Her curt rejection hurt his pride more than anything he had thought possible He felt that he had sud denly lost all faith in human na- ture, and that life among his old associates would be intolerable. So he drew his wages, gathered up his equipment, and trekked into the foothill country to the very farthest homestead on the map.
 He found a place by mountain stream, cut down spruce logs, and built himself a cabin. When winter set in he began cutting posts and rails for fencing on his farm. To keep from thinking he worked feverishly, early and late. But thoughts would come, in spite of all he could do to stop them. Parti- cularly as the Christmas season drew near his mind would turn to the old farm down on the plains. What ample preparations would be going on in his mothers kitchen {! What stacks of food! What happy chatter, sobered bit perhaps be- cause of the boy who had left home in a huff and never had written back And Sylvia! Sylvia would be home now for the Christmas vaca- ton. Perhaps this Fulton fellow would be visiting with her. . Dave turned with a shrug and showed more wood into his rusty

stove. After all, he told himself, he was not so badly off. He had a cabin and plenty of fuel He had dog, and gun, team of horS- es, half a dozen yearling calves.
 He was taking comfort in such thoughts when suddenly his dog sprang up, barking. Dave was on his feet in an instant, his gun in his hand. Perhaps deer or bear had wandered into his little clear ing.
 At that moment came a knock, something which never before had happened on his cabin door. For an instant Dave hesitated, then swung the door open. The light fell on the figure of young man. Are you Dave Holden?" the stranger inquired
 Yes. Come in.'
 The stranger entered. Dave made him comfortable and gave him supper, waiting to hear his mis- sion
 When they were seated on either side of the hot stove the stranger began. T am Jack Fulton" he said. Perhaps you have heard of me-"
 Dave's veins seemed to freeze. What brings you here?" he de- manded. Cant you leave me alone?"
 Fulton kept his temper. No not under the circumstances. Let me tell you--I will be brief I. am the principal of the school where Miss Palmer teaches. All through the term I have seen she was wor- rying. At last I asked her why Naturally she was diffident at first but finally told me. She is wearing her heart out for you"
 Dave faced him. "Is this true and why do you tell me? thought"
 Because I am to be married tt little girl of my own at Easter and I think I know how both O. you feel. So I got your location from the homestead officials, ant took my Christmas vacation to lool you up I hope you are not an noyed by my interest,""
 Dave seized his hand. And thought all the time"
 Never mind what you thought I've walked in from the neares rancher's. If you have team tha can travel you can make the rail way station by morning, and ca your Christmas turkey at Sylvii Palmer's. I'll stay and look afte your cattle. It will be a real holi day for me"
 But Dave had both his hands il his. My friendl don't know wha I can say"
 Say it to Sylvia! I'll give vol six days to get back. And bring he with you, or I'll charge you for m time!"
 "Ill bring her with me-or yo can keep the farm" said Dave, wh was already climbing into his heav cvercoat.

land to sport and tennis and par ticularly one Jack Fulton whose name was often On her lips. Dave had a feeling of being taken at 9 disadvantage. Instead of wooing Sylvia for himself he bluntly charg- ed her with having transferred her affections to Fulton.
