CHAPTER XLIII Bourne, suddenly abandoning his oblique tactics, came to his feet and stepped toward her with that slow, easy grace which had in it a suggestion of excitement Involuntarily, she tensed with anticipation; then was annoyed with herself when he merely nodded at th* book in her hands. “Denny,” he said, in his natural manner, “if you’ll give me a synopsis of one paragraph on that page, I’ll apologize for disturbing you with my tomfoolery, and leave you.” She could not have told him the title of the book, much less • line of its contents; but to know that he was aware of this was too mortifying. She arose and stood face to face with him. "Since you are Interested in what I’m reading, Captain,” she said, placing the volume in his hands, “I’ll let you have it, and then leave you so that you may enjoy it without hindrance.” He dropped the book to the couch and looked down at her with a contemplative half-smile, while into his eyes came that unreadable poignant light she never could place. "Divinely spirited one,” he said quietly, “I appreciate that your position in this household is a very trying one. But I’ve honestly done my best to avoid making it more distasteful than it is. Tonight, I haven’t the faintest idea what I’ve done to offend you. If you’ll tell me, I’ll make amends if I can. Now, won’t you be a little friendly—just for an hour?” Denny knew he was slightly drunk and that this was but a new manner in his baiting of her; yet such was his appeal that to withstand it she had quickly to marshal all her grievances against him to the foreground of her mind. “You must know why it is impossible for us to be friendly, Captain Bourne." She was uncomfortably aware that she had failed to achieve the icy graciousness by which she thought to set him in his place. Chagrin flushed her cheeks. She put up a hand to tuck a lock of hair behind her ear. He was standing very close to her. “Denny, you have the most exquisite little ears I’ve ever seen,” he commented dispassionately; and before she realized what was happening, he had taken the lobe* of both her ears between his fingers and was gently drawing her face up te his. She felt herself going; then, whipping up her indignation, jerked her head free and stepped back • pace. “Don’t you ever dare touch me again!” she cried in a low, uneven voice. When the words were out all her pent-up emotions burst suddenly through the dam of her restraint. Her tongue, unreasoning, slipped beyond control so that she scarcely knew what it was saying. “Heaven knows, I have no desire for your society; but you might have had the decency to stay sober and the courtesy not to leave me alone in this dismal barracks on New Year’s Eve! As for your silly exhibitions —keep them for the poolroom loungers with whom you prefer to associate! And above all, keep your pretty speeches for that —that woman whose face you carry inside your pocket!" She paused, a little aghast at her own vehemence. He was regarding her with a look of blank amazement through which there slowly filtered a gleam of comprehension. A look which, for some undefined reason, added fuel to her fury. “What are you looking at?” she demanded fiercely, controlling an Impulse to slap him across the face. His lips curved in a slow smile. “The sweetest woman in the world,” he answered softly. The unexpectedness of hia reply stripped the support of her anger from under her and left her speechless. The astonishing thing waa that he actually appeared to be in earnest; and although she knew that he could not be, knew that this was another of his diabolic ways of amusing himself at her expense, she stood staring at him, totally incapable of retaliation. As the swift, fluttering weakness

To keep.him from witnessing this crowning humiliation, she shoved him blindly from her path and, running out of th* room, 1 mounted the stair* as fast she could go. • see January. Blizzards, week-long, ■ battering River House with gray ' fury. A trying period that wrought i change* in every member of the household—except Revelry Bourne. No matter how vile the weather, he was abroad every day; returning with a cheerfulness that exasperated those who were forced by the rigorj of th* climate to remain penned up before a roaring fire. Rio had slid easily into complete mental and physical inertia—loafing, eating and sleeping, more careless than ever in her dress and habits. She accepted whatever came with the placid good nature of the opportunist and apparently had no intention of leaving Tarnigan until the river broke. But when th* other* sat in the living room, reading or listening to the news coming in over the radio, she often lounged bemusedly among the cushions of her favorite couch, her half-closed eyes moving over Bourne’s long figure; the first joint of her thumb softly circling the ball of her forefinger. Van Cleve spent most of his time sitting alone in the eardroom, a bottle of rum beside him, his harassed eyes on his unopened medical journal, the fingers of his left hand mechanically tap-tapping along the course of his unresponsive nerve. His moroseness had deepened. It was only when Denny came into the room that he displayed any i interest i Honey-jo, put to it to concoct api periling menus from canned and . dried food, was too busy to feel the i monotony of these snowed-in days; ' but a more personal annoyance was ! making her temper more and more uncertain. She wa* pursuing her campaign to wheedle from Boom the ’ secret of hia sourdough hotcakes, I and as a consequence the cook, instead of the foreman, had become the object of her attentions and the recipient of the first fruit* of her culinary skill. Harp became jealous of Boom. The pair quarreled one day and Boom moved into separate quarters. The exchange of comic verbal abuse, which had been an evidence of their comradely understanding and mutual esteem was now a thing of the past They spent hours in the kitchen arguing furiously about trivia] things er glaring at each other as they mumbled insulting asides which, it was plain, each hoped the other would overhear and openly resent. *• * * Denny awakened to find her window sashes rattling In the grip of the blizzard—a dismal morning that wa* but a repetition of many that had gone before. Now, as always, she lay mentally battling each vicious gust that alternately flattened snow against the panes and tore it off again, letting ’ in the gray light of morning. In some vague way, her resistance of ; the storms and her war against Revelry Bourne had com* to be synonymous. That the sole result , of her struggle wa* a maddening sense of frustration only increased i her determination to keep fighting and eventually to escape. It was a goad to her pride that any backwoods autocrat should so easily defeat her at every turn. Particularly an autocrat who could dream like a fatuous schoolboy over the picture of one woman, and at the same time take out his spite against another by marooning her in hi* God-forsaken land. She gritted her teeth at the senseless injustice of the thing—and then fell into speculation about the woman whose picture had brought that look of tenderness to hi* faee. That woman—other women—how many of them had touched the life

of this river captain? She remembered how the Wrangell girls, despite their Interest in the visiting hunters, had clustered about him at every opportunity, hanging on his words. She knew he could have had any one of them for the taking. And she had not been blind, of late, to Rio's sudden interest in him. She was thankful she had made it clear that day at Lonewater that she had married him only that she might use him for her own ends. She must be careful to act so that he would never, by any chance, get the idea that she, too, had succumbed to his masculine charms. Turning on her pillow, she lay, her stormy eyes on the door between her room and his, trying to plan new ways of defying him. Yet, convinced though she was that she hated him, he possessed a devilish fascination for her. Back once more in the stormy present, she was swept into a renewed resistance of the elements that wore her out before she rose from her bed. She dressed and went down to the living room. / The place was deserted, except fot\ Pinecone who was languidly dusting < in the dreary light from gale-lashed windows. The maid informed her that Mrs. Carew had gone down to the warehousewith Captain Bourne; a bit of news that both surprised and displeased Denny. She glanced into the card room and saw Van with a bottle of Hudson’s Bay rum gripped between his knees, awkwardly trying to draw the cork. His face was unusually haggard, and for a moment she forgot her own quivering nerves in pity for him. She walked to the doorway, trying to think of some not too obvious way of keeping him from drinking so early in the morning. “Hello!” she said, with simulated cheerfulness. He raised a despondent face and nodded; then, with a despairing gesture of helplessness, handed her the bottle. “Open this confounded thing for me Denny, will you—please?” “Let me wind your watch first. Van,” she temporized. When she had given the timepiece the required number of turns and returned it to his pocket, he reminded her, “The rum now.” Denny, genuinely distressed, nevertheless forced herself to speak lightly. "All right, all right, my dear; I’ll open it. But first, let me get you a bite to eat. I’ll hop right out to the kitchen and make you some coffee myself, Van, and be back in a jiffy.* Ignoring his impatient negation, «, she went to the kitchen. Intent on making the best coffee she knew I how, she burned her fingers rather 1 severely. She carried the tray in herself and plared it on the table beside him. He did not notice her nor raise ' his eyes-from his injured arm, along ■ which the fingers of his other hand kept tapping, tapping. Denny’s burn was quivering, and all at once that tapping seemed to fall on it; to fall on her taut nerves with such ' diabolic persistency that she wanted to shake him and scream, “Stop it! Stop it!” She curbed the hysterical impulse and by an effort forced herself to speak cheerfully. •‘Here you are. Van. Everything piping hot.” He glanced indifferently at the food she had so painstakingly arranged and said ungraciously, “Thanks. But there was no necessity to do this. One eats to sustain life; and on a day like this oblivion, not life, is the thing. Oblivion lie*— in that bottle. Please quit stalling around, Denny, and open it ” She drew back, her lips tightening. Her self-control vanished. She snatched up the rum, drew the cork, and thumped the bottle down on the table. “There, you quitter!” Bom of overwrought nerves, the words were impersonal, yet barbed with intolerant scorn. “Since you can’t face it like a man, drink! Drink! Drink like s coward and drown yourseli in oblivion!” (To be continued) C«tnifht by Barrett WiU«UKhl>7 DUtftbvted by King VMtarM Rynd’er’e. Ine.
