Floyd Jordan, striding down the steep mountain trial, halted irresolutely near the abrupt turning at Farrell's blafr. .He appeared to_ be meditating deeply. Suddenly he threw up his head, squared his shoulders and hurried on, not in the direction of the boarding house -in- the gulch, but toward Farrell's cabin. Farrell's cabin consisted of two log houses joined together and chinked with mud. There were other cabins of the same simple architecture scattered over the mountain side and nestled in the guiches, but white curtains hung at the Farrell windows, and the wind- ward side of the living room was hung with gay Navajo blankets. Phe brown fur of a mountain bear was on the floor, and its mate was spread luxuriously beneath the red pil- lows of a couch. And, set like a forch in the south window, a geranium, potted in a brilliant Indian basket, lifted its scarlet bloom. But Jordan felt without seeing this harmony. Ie was looking into the face of the girl who had opened the door. It was a face of light and shade which spoke the swift thought before the voice found words, a face to hold a man's glance In a crowd. Closing the door, she resumed her seat by the fire without replying to Jordan's genial greeting. Ile seemed to fill the room. Six feet two and broad shouldered, he looked @ven larger in the clumsy canvas coat, corduroys and high laced boots of the prospector. He whipped his hat against his knee, evidently discon- certed by the girl's hostile attitude. "I'hat you, Floyd Jordan?" inquired a voice from the inner room. "Yes, Mrs. Farrell, How're you feel- ing? Some better, I'm glad to say. Set down and warm yourself, Floyd *Fain't to be wondered at that people have rheumatism in a land where there is ten months' winter. If you'll shut the door, Loreny, I'll get up and dress." ! Lorena closed the door. "Floyd Jordan, what are you coming here again for?" she burst out sud- | denly. "Wouldn't be very neighborly not to ; | drop in with your mother sick and i | your dad away, would it?" "Didn't I tell you that I never would ° | speak to you again and that I never wanted to see youl?" she said 'fiercely, taking a few steps toward him.

"You can't go any too quick to solt me." answered the girl, her voice tense with-scorn.. "And you can tell them | loafers at the store that I'm not to be taken so easily.

He had almost reached IT he passed it she knew she would never see him again. Some- thing stirred in her throat. The long stretch of trail that rdn away through the dreary landscape seemed like ber life, and Floyd was going out of it. Her heart yearned for him. What | would her life be without him? "Loreny, where are you?" called Mrs. ewerging from the bedroom fully shod. The girl was not. in the room.

"Thought 1'd come back and nave an- other talk with Lorena," he Reb "Qh, Floyd, she's gone after cried the distracted woman, wr ot her hands. "I saw her footprints point- ing toward the bluff. She got sorry right after you left." "IW find her," said Floyd quickly. "Don't worry." And he dashed back into the storm. _ When Lorena softly closed the kitch- en door she could just see Floyd round- ing the bluff. : "Floyd! Oh, Floyd, come back!" she called, all her reserve gone, her fierce pride thrown to the stormy winds that blew the fringe of her shawl into her eyes: Realizing that he could not hear ber, she started after him, but by the time sfie had covered half the distance a sea of white swept in between and bibtted him from view. She hurried on, calling his name re- peatedly, but the furious wind tore at her breath and walled her about with flepey cloudé. She never even made. the bluff, a And when &bé found that she had missed it and tried to retrace her steps the drift had Giled her tracks. If she could only strike the trai}? In despera- tion she turned to the right and turned to the left, but ome turn offset the other. Thus she struggled on and on and still on until in spite of the biting cold the perspiration burst from every pore. This was well enough as long as she kept moving, but when the time came that she must stop she would freeze all the quicker for her. present warmth. . This, being born and bred of the northland, lorena knew, and the | khowledge kept her tolling, "toiling on until her tired limbs compelled pause in the shelter of a bluff. She leaned pauting aginst a rock, all un- conscious of -a pair of eyes which glared from a willow thicket near by, While she rested the green lights in the eyes flared brighter, a long red tongue licked the grinning jaws hun- grily, and forth from his covert Stole a lank, gray well Lorena uttered This was no coyote, to be chased: with a stick, but & wolf of timber stock, sa great beast, strong as a mastiff. He emitted low snarls as he slunk in half circles across her front. He was un- decided. So while he circled, preparing fof a spring, drawing a little nearer at every turn, Lorena fell back--back toward the bluff, keeping her white face al ways to the creeping beast. \ith sudden inspiration she took off her heavy shawl and threw it, blanket- wise. ofer the wolf's head and then fled desperately. Onee clear of the shrub she ran on, plunging through drifts, stumbling, falling, to rise again and push her flight. Of direction she took no heed. Her only thought was to place*Uistance be- 'tween herself and the famished brute. But when. weary and breathless, she patised to fost, out of the drab drift stole the lank, gray shadow. With a terrified shriek Lorena ran from the hounds. At last she stopped, spent, unable to take another step. Looking around, she saw the wolf, lick- ing his-hungry jaws, crouching for the final spring, With a bitter ery she fell upon her kpees and closed her eyes. Just then two shots rang out in quick specession. Looking up, she saw Floyd Jordan, with his smoking' re- volver in his hand, standing over the prostrate beast, : "Floyd, oh, Floyd!" she 'sobbed as he came to her with eyes tender and gnxious. He picked her up from the snow, wrapped her in his coat and held her again redast, The storm was lifting. Farrell's cabin could be plainly discerned not a quarter of a mile distant. "I'm dead sure now I'll build that cabin on my claim," Floyd said as they started homeward. Decline of Billingsgate.
