"This horse is too promi- : nentlv marked. 1 can't, be seen with him in diylight. I carried your blahVet with me and after 1 got into the thick timber across the valley I realized they'd figure I was bound up June-bug Creek for the Modoc lava hMs. So I ripped your blanket to pieces, bound up the horse’s feet so he wouldn't leave a distinguishing trail, and rode back. That's a move they will.never suspect. May I have wmething to eat and sleep in your taraf I'll put the sheriff's horse up there, and in the morning I'll be gone -before daylight—if you'll wake me up. And will yon fix me up a snack to take with me?” Monies Dal? leaned against the jamb of her cabin door and laughed softly. “I've never been to a circus. Hob." she declared, “but if a circus is half as enjoyable as what I've been through today I’m going to apply for i job in one as soon as I leave Bogus, ome in and sit down. I'll pct the hors? up.” | She took the reinsA from him and pushed him inside the cabin. When the returned from caring for the horse she found him staring suspiciously at three empty plates on her dining table. “The sheriff, a deputy sheriff, and , a ranger were here for dinner.” she laughed. “Thought I'd let the dishes fo'tiH morning. Now you come the moment they are gone. Oh Bob, this is delicious—perfectly delicious!” She towed him a packet of cigarettes and ! box of matches. “I know you haven't smoked in a week. Bob. Hems some I’ncle Charley left the I*=’ time he called." She left him to the enjoyment of lb'' cigarettes and with swift, deft haiitis prepared for him a meal similar to the one she had given his Pursuers. He ate almost ravenously tn absolue silence, after the uuhion of the frontiersman, and not until he finished did Monica venture to address h'm. ■A’ ln your program. Bob.

I was never remotely tempted to full in love with you, although I was mighty fond of you so fond of you. in fact, that It .broke my heart l« see yon throw yourtielf away on Keleey. But I wouldn't have inurricd you. 1 could never be happy in these hills. I was ■futani for something itetter -somewhere else." "I thought the same oneb," ho re piled tragically, "hut. it seemt L-*vas meant for something worse some where else. I wonder what's become of Keleey." “She has secured a divorce from you. Bob, on the grounds that you’re a felon. The last heard of her she was in San Francisco. She's mar Tied again.” "Well, I hope she’ll he happier than rhe ever was in Honey Valley.” The girl nodd'sl. Bob Mason toyed with a bread pill and stared dully be fore him. "I’ll not try to see my baby now." he decided. "I'll lay low here until the search quiets down a mite; then I'll try to get Into Canada. 1 reckon 1 could get a Job riding sot some Canadian outfit.” “The authorities will reckon the same thing. Bob. Kou mustn’t. You must let me plan for you. I have four thousand dollars, Bob. Most of it I received from you when you bought my cattle, and l'v P saved some I'll let you have half that money, and you stay on Bogus until you've growr a beard and a mustache—in a month nobody here will know you. Then you can take my horse and ride across country at ulght. "We'll wait for the full of the moon. If you stick to the hills and the timber you can get to Lakeview, Oregon, and there you can sell the horse and outfit. You know what he is. You raised him yourself and there isn't a better roping or cut tagout horse in the state. Then you hoard the N. C. O. and gq east to New York. "From New York yon will take passage on a steamer to BuenosAires. That's in South America —in the Argentine. Cattle raising is the principal Industry there, and a good smart American who knows cows can get a job. "You'll not require all the money I’ll lend you, but take it anywav in case of unexpected necessity. You may semi it bttek to me as soon as you can, ami when you have a home of your own I'll bring your boy down to you. South America is one of the countries I've made np nry mind to visit some day, so it wouldn't lie out of my way.” He* pondered this proposition and found it good, “in return,” he decided, "you file for record the deed to Honey Valley that I gave you before my trial, to hold in trust for Keleey. It was my property before 1 married her and she hasn't any communityinterest in it. Honey Valley will be ample security for the repayment of your loan." lie smiled wanly. "I'll r< pay the loan if I can, but I want you to own Honey Valley, too. I'll never see it again. Monica -never, never see the lovely spot where my heart lies buried!” “ Hot tears splashed on the girl's “You're getting sentimental Bob," she charged. “I'll get you a pillow and another blanket and you go to sleep in the barn and forget Honey Valley. There's some soft meadow hay in the corner.” A mo ment later she thrust the pillow and extra blanket into his arms. ‘"'Good night, Bob. dear.” He trudged wearily out. At the door he paused. “I wish I wasn't so blamed near dead." he complained, “or I'd groom the sheriff's horse. He's caked with sweat and dtrt. -x v l’oor devil. He’s had a hard day of it. Well, I'll fix him up in the morning. Good night.” When Monica’s alarm clock awakened her at four o'clock next morning the fog was again (hick on the San Dimas. The eaves ot her cabin, the trees surrounding the cabin, dripped moisture. She dressed,’arraying herself in a youth's woolen shirt and sweatee, olive-drab riding trousers and fiald boots. After lighting the fire and setting the kettle to boil she went to the barn, watered and fed the sheriff's horse and groomed him while lie ate. Bob Mason, curled up in the hay pile in lhe corner, did not hear her. ITO III’, ( OVI'IXI Et>» Copyright 1926 Peter B.
