nlca pondered. “Tell you what you do, Uncle Charley. You Jump into your flivver and so down to the general store. Be there as soon as it opens and make your purchase. Have 1 the clothes done up in one big bundle' and ou your way back, when you're' about fifty yards inside this grove ofcedars. I'll meet you; pass the bundle, to me and i'll carry it back to Bogus.” “Now you're beginning’ to show some hoss-seuse, Monlcy.” Uncle ( Charley consulted his watch. "Be 1 waitin' for me at nine o'clock,” he ordered, and dodged back into the cabin to prepare breakfast. CHAPTER 16. Monica meanwhile rode off into the grove, dismounted, loosened the cinch, and set herself patiently to await. Uncle Charley's return from Dogwood Flats. Because she could hear him coming a quarter of a mile away she was wafting for him at the designated I spot. Nobody's follerin — yet, the old inau informed her, "hut I hope to tell you, girl, 1 come In for a lot of questionin’ as to who I'd took to buyin* clothes for." He got out and lashed the bundle securely behind the cantie of her saddle. "Tell Bob if he's hard preyed an' can make my place, he's welcome,” he called after her. "I'll hide him' where I hide my whisky—an' folks] have been lockin' for my still ten yeats an' ain't found it yet." His shrill, mirthless cachinnaUon followed Monica as she headed uphill. Below her Dogwood Flats lay wrapped in the gray blanket of fog. She skirted it on the side opposite the one she .had taken on her way to 'Uncle Charley's; once clear of the .town she took a wood trail leading to the heights until she reached the crest of the long ridge ou the north, i down which she rode swiftly to Bogus. She was certain that the fog had effectually concealed her; she would have sworn that no human gaze except that of Uncle Charley had rested upon her; yet with the instinct of the mountaineer and woodsman —an in- ( stinct that is a throwback to primitive man — she dismounted two hundred yards from the lookout station, tied the horse in the timber and cau-i tiously reconnoitered her habitation' ou foot, her approach screened by the little barn. Cautiously she came to the corner of*the barn and peered around into the yard. Th e coast was clear, but suddenly her heart gave a wild leap. Up the hard trail from Tantrum Meadows a horse was coming at a fast gallop! Instantly Mouica flung open the barn door. Bob Mason was sitting on a box smoking a cigarette. “Quick! Somebody’s coming. I'm afraid,” she panted. “The sheriff's horse is two hundred yards away, on the south: hilside, in the timber. Follow the 1 trail. Y’our clothes are tied to the I saddle. Good-by — and keep away

from Uncle Charley's." With the speed of a deer Tta riled from its bed. Bob Mason leaped to his feet and disappeared around the corner of the barn. A minute later I Sheriff Bentley, riding Hanger Gaa- | land s horse white with foam anti j badly spent from a furious five-mite ‘ gallop, most of which was up-hill, I pulled up in front of Monica’s cabin. | Monica, however, had had time to get inside and was busily discarding j her riding costume when site sheriff arrived. To his lusty "Hello! Hello, there!” she thrust her head out of her bedroom window and called, “Hello, yourself. Who are you and! "what do you want?” I “Sheriff Bentley." "Welcome to Bogus, Sheriff, I’ll be out in a minute.” Hastily she slipped into a dress and slippers and came to the door. “Where've you been all morning?" he demanded pointedly. “Tried to , raise you on the telephone at eight ' o'clock and kept trying for nearly two hours. No answer. Finally got worried about you and concluded to run up aud investigate." “I'm sure I appreciate your concern more than your horse does.” “Where were you?” Monica's smile removed the sting from her' answer. “None of your I business —not giving you a short answer, I hope." | “I'm going to make it my business, girl. You've been over to Uncle | Charley Canfield's, ami you induced, the old reprobate to go down to the I mining company’s general store at Dogwood Flats ami buy a complete I outfit for Bob Mason. Th e minute' Uncle Charley left the store with his purchases the manager telephoned his suspicions to the Tantrum Meadows station. I spent the night with Garland and of course figured right away | that you had something to’ do with Uncle Charley's activities, so I rang you up and when I got no answer I was certain you’d gone over after tlie clothes, and I came up, hoping to lie here in time." “How do you suppose I got over to Uncle Charley’s?” Monica’s voice was i gently taunting. “I loaned my horse to Hanger Garland lust night and I haven’t any airplane. Do I look like a-girl who had pust completed a crossI country run up hill and down dale ■afoot?" “Well, no—but —well. I'm going to look around a bit.” He dismounted and strode over to t-he barn, with Monica at his heels. The impress of Bob Mason’s body was all too apparent in the hay—and on the dirt floor a cigarette butt was still smoking. “I'm about three minutes tqp late."! Sheriff Beniiey cried exultantly. “I know he isn’t on the north side of Bogus because I looked sharp as I came up. I'll bet he ran out of this barn aud around the south shoulder of i Bogus when he heard me poundin’ up ! the trail." He turned, but Monica was too ' swift for him. The barn door slam-

med In his face and the heavy, liveoak boil shot into piner a split »ec- ( mid before bis huge shoulder crashed against the door"You let me out," he yelled wrath-1 fully. "You’re Interfering with an officer In the discharge of bis duty, and Dial's a felony," "It’s a misdemeanor,*' Monica corrected him. "The only way you can get out it »o break out." The 'sheriff was equal to the occasion, however. lie realized the door was too stout for him, so instantly be sought a weak board in the year of the barn and crashed through it like a "breechy" bull. | Furiously angry at having been outI witted by a woman, he rau at top |speed toward his horse, aud the animal.! frightened at his precipitate upi preach, backed hurriedly away. But Monica was not yet done. She had to gain time for Bob Masou to climb that two hundred yards of steep mountainside and find the horse she had left tetht-red in the timber; so' she picked up a piece of stove wood at the wood-pile and hurled it at the suspicious horse at whose reins the sheriff was wildly grabbing. It struck the horse smartly in the ribs; he wheeled, kicked up both hind legs and fled home to Tantrum at a gallop. Monica's peals of laughter followed him. Bentley turned savagely upon her. “You're under arrest!” he cried furiously. "I see you're bound to get laughed out of office next November," the 1 ] girt taunted him humorously. “Well, if you can't keep my secrets 1 see no ■ reason why I should keep yours." And J she thrust out her hands as if inviting his handcuffs. “1 guess you'll keep.” h e replied, and dashed into her cabin. On the wall beside the telephone was a schedule of the telephone calls for all stations on the Forest Service line; he called the Tantrum Meadows station. and Monica realized that Deputy Sheriff answering.
