PThe I Zy BARNETT W/LLOUGHBY '
CHAPTER XXXVII When Denny returned to the card room she saw, to her consternation, that Bourne was there, putting his shotgun back into its rack on the wall. Had he already looked at her sketch and divined her intent? Her quick glance at his bland face told I her nothing. “Helio, Denny!” He pulled his cap off and shoved it into his mackinaw pocket. “No luck. I didn’t get I a shot" She made some reply, noting meanwhile that her map was exactly as she had left it She could scarcekeep herself from rushing to the table and snatching it up. But she knew if she did this, and he had already seen it, her action would mark the paper as her own. The safest thing was to wait until he left the room to hang up his mackinaw, and then secure it He was diabolically slow about going. Denny stood nervously wateh'ng him as he moved about, filling his cigarette case, rearranging Van Sieve’s unopened medical journals in the corner cabinet, doing half a dozen resolutely unnecessary things, it seemed to her. Finally he sauntered over to the table and her heartbeats quickened with alarm. Very deliberately he was reaching toward her sketch. His fingers hovered above it She had a wild impulse to leap forward and lay hold if it; then she saw him pick up the pencil that was lying beside it He drew a notebook from his shirt pocket made a notation, and meticulously put the pencil back exactly where he had found it Denny felt weak in the knees when he at last went out into the hall and left her alone. She caught □p the map and tucked it in the front of her blouse. In the evening after dinner she sat with the cthesß in the living room, when Bourne remarked, “Shakespeare George didn’t show up for Christmas. I’ve been uneasy about the old boy ever since be had tkat stroke last summer. One of us ought to run over to the Tansilla to see if he's all right." He came to his feet and. going to the outer door, cpexe-c the upper half and looked cut. “Light as day,” he announced. “The moon is bright but the edge* are a bit blurred. That means more snow very won and bad sledding, across the uplands." "Right you are,” agreed Harper. "If you want some one to dash over to Shakespeare's, it might be a good idea to strike out to-night, while the going is good. Shall I break out the malemutes and get my duds together, Skipper?” ‘I was just about to suggest it,” answered Bourne, turning back into the room. “Okay.” Harp started for the stairway. “With this crust on the snow, it won’t take me more than a day to reach the Tansilla." He had already reached the foot of the stairs when Bourne halted him. “I’ve just been thinking, Harp, that I haven’t had any real exercise for a couple of weeks. A run behind ' the dogs would be good for me. ! Hook up the team and bring it to the front gate, and while you’re about it, just take the bells off the har- . nesses.” Bourne's decision to make the trip ‘ was an unexpected bit of good luck 1 that made Denny’s spirits rise. After he had gone out to get ready, ' she recalled her study of the map. The Tansilla lay north of Tarnigan, : while her route took her south in the opposite direction, so that there was no danger of their trails crossing. ' He would be absent at least three days and by that time she would be nearly to Wrangell—too far, at any 1 rate, for him to follow and bring her back. At last everything seemed to be playing into her bands. She slipped into a fur coat and went out to the front steps with 1 Rio, Van, Honey-jo and Harp to see him off. She was aware of an unreasonable sense of disappointment because he did not draw her aside 1 from the others to say good-by. But, of course, she reminded herself, he had no idea that this was good-by. Then, moved by a feminine desire to make this farewell memorable, more dramatic than a mere waving of the hand, she walked out to the road where the dog team 1 waited. The string of malemutes, prick-

End Hartford City Strike In Proposal Hartford City, Ind., Aug. 13,— (U.R>—A 25 day old strike at the Overhead Door corporation was ended today for 235 employes after both parties to the dispute ac-
eared and wolflike, were hitched to I a light Yukon sled. They were making throaty noises of affection now s as Bourne went along the line, pate ting each >ne and making absurd r remarks of appreciation. He came r back to the sled where Denny stood 1 and, after securing hia rifle under the lashings, straightened and bes gan pulling on his mittens. She noted his air of competence t as he paused there in the moonlight, tall and slim in his white drill f parka, belted by a scarlet Hudson’s r Bay sash. “He’s a good-looking • devil In that outfit,” she thought, s and felt a momentary twinge of rei gret because she was about to beat ■ him at his own game and thus ex- : pose him to the pity of his com- ; munity. She wished now that she i had been more gracious in the matI ter of the Christmas presents, the Cosway miniature, the sapphire ■ ring. She might have accepted these • gifts and then left them behind her ■ when she went south, instead of acting the way she had. i “Reval, might I ride with you to the top of the hill ?’’ It was not any weakening of her resolve to escape that softened her now and prompted the request, but rather the magnanimity of the assured victor. “Certainly. You wouldn’t, by any chance, like to make this trip with ' me, Denny?” There was a half- 1 humorous, half-whimsical quirk to 1 his eyebrows, which, oddly enough, ■ seemed to indicate a hope that she 1 might. ' “Oh, no. Reval. Not this time.” “My bad luck. All right, here we 1 gol" Before she realized what he 1 was about, he had lifted her in his ' arms as if she were a feather- 1 weight. For an instant he held her * against his breast, his lean face ' close to hers; then he set her down f in the basket sled and tucked her I coat about her. He laid hold of the handlebar and ‘ called to the little group on the 1 steps, "So long, folks. I’ll be seeing J you on New Year, or sooner. Mush, ' fellers!” The dogs, yipping in joy- 8 ous excitement, lunged forward in 7 their collars and the sled began to move up the road toward the top of c the hill. Tongass dashed on ahead 1 of the team, moonlight glinting on the metal wheels that adorned his I I collar. J
J At the summit where one road turned north and the other south, Bourne halted the dogs and Denny got out of the sled. ‘That was splendid!” she said, tossing back her loosened hair. For a few minutes they talked casually as they stood beside the panting malemutes, looking out over the moonlit valley and the village lights below. The peaceful northern beauty of the scene was, for Denny, heightened by her sense of farewell. There was something of finality in her voice when she turned to Bourne and held out her hand. “Good-by, Captain. And good luck all the way—and always.” He smiled at her. “Thanks, Denny. I know my luck will hold good on this trip. But I’m not going to say ‘good-by’ to you. I’ll be seeing you again—very soon.” “Os course!” She gave a dissembling little laugh. “That word is too solemn for a short parting. I hope you find your friend Shakespeare quite well.” She stood watching on the brink of the hill as Bourne rode away on the sled runners. Once he turned, snatched off his cap and waved to her. With a sigh of relief she started down the road toward River House. Denny spent the remainder of the evening making every effort to be agreeable to Rio and Van. Later she went np to her own little suite, free to finish her packing. The first thing that caught her eye was the small, etched gold box containing the ring Bourne had given her. It was in the middle of her dressing table where she could not fail to see it “How dared he come into my room,” she thought indignantly. He must have placed it there when he came up to get ready for his trip. He had left a note with it which read: “Dear Denny: I had this ring made to fit only one finger. And that finger was made for this ring.” "Indeed!” she said to herself, as she released the spring for a last look at the circlet of gold and sap-
cepted a 5-point proposal offered' by the state labor relations board. The program accepted included a wage increase ot two nd one-half cents per hour; right of the em- . ployees to appeal to the state I board with grievances, and no discrimination by the management.

phire. The stone glinted up at her from its bed of white velvet—-mock-ingly, she thought, like the light in Bourne’s eyes when he had told her at the ways that she could not escape from Tarnigan. e'l, I ■> show you, Captain Revelry Bourne. She wrote two notes to leave behind her. One was to Honey-jo, saying that she had taken a sudden notion to visit Polly Weils at Blue Heaven, and had gone down-river early with the trapper Stebbins, who happened to be going that way. The note to her husband was, she hoped, cool and dignified. My dear Captain Bourne: When you read this it will be apparent that you were mistaken in assuming that you could keep me in Tarnigan against my will. Please recall that I predicted this in the beginning, and I warned you I would fight you with whatever weapons came to my hand. You are also mistaken regarding the finger to which these rings are adapted. But since lam go- 4 ing directly to Paris to secure a divorce, you will soon be free to correct your latter error in judgment. Denise Keith. Into the envelope with this note she placed the wedding ring that had belonged to Bourne’s mother and the new ring he had given her. As she sealed it she thought, “I’d like to see his face when he finds this under his pillow.” Envelope in hand, she tiptoed into her unlighted bedroom and came to a halt before the locked door that led to Bourne’s room. But now, for some reason, even though she knew that he was miles away, she hesitated to turn the key. Instead, she stood in the dark, staring at the panels, thinking of the many times she had lain in her bed after the house was sunk in slumber, watching that door. There was never a waking hour of the night when she had not been acutely conscious of it and of the man who lay asleep on the other side. That her interest had any quality ether than antipathy for him, she never admitted. She remembered how once she had permitted herself to speculate on what might happen if she should turn the key and leave the door
slightly ajar. Had imagined the aperture slowly widening and Revelry Bourne in his dressing gown, 1 tall and dim in the half-light, smiling at her with a strange glow in his eyes; coming in to her— , Here her breath had caught while . her whole being contracted with a , swift emotion half-fearful, half-ex-ultant—something she had never ex- I perienced before. It ebbed away, leaving her trembling like a star when the northern lights enfold it. j Furious with herself, she had leaped from her bed and paced the floor ; , until the cold drove her back to her I warm covers. She had never again allowed her- 1 self to be inundated by a wave of— | was it antagonism?—for the man. Yet now, when she was about to leave him forever; now, when he | was far away on the snow-covered i uplands, why was she standing at the threshold of his empty room palpitating like a fool? she demanded of herself. With a decisive firming of her 1 lips, she laid hold of the key, turned it, and noiselessly opened’the door. I She groped toward the bed, , reached it, and with quickly beating heart, bent above it. She started to slip, the envelope under the pillow, when some trick of the senses swept her back to that first night with him in the grove. Her head swam and again she was standing in the circle of his arms; his mouth was warm on hers, draining her of her strength, firing her with ecstasy.... She dragged herself back to reality to find two Denise Keiths warring in her. One was demanding, “Let me go! Let me go!” while the other was trying to hold to that moment of surrender when all the rest of the world had vanished in the rapture of a remembered embrace. In quick, scornful anger she denounced herself. And with a hasty, haphazard thrust, she shoved the envelope under the pillow and tiptoed back to her own room.
