road. The place was distinguished
not merely by its masonry, but also
by its picket fence, width had once
been whitewashed. Farm wagons of
various decrees of decay stood by the
pate, and in the barnyard plows ami
harrows deeply burieX by the weeds
were rusting forlornly away. A little
farther up the stream the tall pipe ol
a saw-mill rose above the firs.
A pack of dos of all sizes and siprns

by a bi.r. slovenly dressed, red beard
ed man of ei.vty or thereabouts.
"Hello, ln le Joel" called the prirl in
offhand boyish fashion. "How are
you today?"
"Howdy, ?ir!.' answered Meeker
pravely. "What brings you up here
this time?"
She laughed. "Here's a boarder who
wants to learn how to raise cattle."
Meeker's face lightened. "I reckon
you're Mr. Norcross? I'm glad to sec
ye. Light off and make yourself to
home. Turn your horses into the cor
ral. The boys will feed 'em."
Without ceremony Meeker led his
guests directly iuto the dining room,
n long and rather narrow room, where
in a woman and six or seven rough
ly dressed young meu were sitting at
a rudely appointed table.
"Karth and seas!" exclaimed Mrs.
Meeker. "Here's Uerrie, and I'll bet
that's Sutlers friend, our boarder."
"Hist along there, boys, and give
the company u chance." she command
ed sharply. "Our dinner's tumble late
today."
The boys they were in reality full
grown cubs of eighteen or twenty
did as they were bid with much, noise,
chaffing r.errie with blunt humor.
Meeker read Sutler's letter, which
Norcross had handed him, and, after
deliberation remarked: "All right, we'll
do the best we can for you, Mr. Nor
cross. but w e haven't any fancy accom
modations." "He don't expect any," replied Ber
rie. "What he needs is a little rough
ing it."
"There's plinty of that to be had."
said one of the herders, who sat below
the salt. " 'Tis the &oft life I'm uadin'."
Oue of the lads. Frank Meeker, a
dark, intense youth of about twenty,
was Uerea's full cousin. The others
were merely hired hands, but they r. 11
eyed the new comer with disfavor.
The fact that Benie had brought Lira

suit which he wore. "I'd like to roll
him in the creek." muttered one ol
them to his neighbor.
This dislike Ben ie perceived in some
degree, and to Frank she privately
Bfl id: "Now. you fellows have got tc
treat Mr. Norcross tight. He's been
very sick."
Frank maliciously grinned. "Oh. we'll
treat him right. We won't do a thing
to him""
"Now. Frank." sh'3 warned, "if you
try RDj of our tricks on him you'll
hear from me."
"Why all this worry ou your part?"
he asked keenly. "How long since you
found him?"
The girl uerself did not understand
the vital and almost painful interest
which this young man had roused in
her. lie was both child and poet to her,
and as she watched him trying to make
friends with the men. her indignation
rose against their clownish offish ucss.
"I don't feel right in leaving you
here." she said at last, "but I must be
ridiiiV And while Meeker ordered
her horse brought out she walked to
the gate with Norcross at her side.
"I'm tremendously obliged to you,"
he said, and his voice was vibrant.
"You have been most kind. IIuw cau
I repay you?"
"Oh. that's all right." she replied, in
true western fashion. "I wanted to
see the folks u; here, anyhow. Tlifc
is no jaunt at all for me." And. look
ing at her powerful figure and feeling
the traplike grip of her cinch hand, he
knew she spoke the truth.
And so she rode away, leaving her
ward to adjust himself to his new and
Htrauge surroundings as best he could,
and with her g.iing the whole valley
darkened for tlv convalescent.
It was soon apparent to the eastern
observer that the entire male popula
tion for thirty miles around not only
knew MeFailane's gill, but that every
unmarried man and some who were
both husbands and fathers kept a
deeply interested eye upon her daily
motion, and certain shameless ones
openly boasted among their fellows of
their intention to win her favor, while
the shy ones reveled in secret exulta
tion over every chance meeting with
her. She was the topic of every lum
ber camp and the shining lye of ev
ery dance to which the ram h hands
often rode over long and lonely trails.
Part of this intense interest was due.
naturally, to the scarcity of desirable
women, but a larger part was called
out by Berea's frank freedom of man
ner. Her ready camaraderie was taken
for carclcssiss. and the candid grip
tif her hand was often misunderstood,
and yet most of the men respected her.
and some fen red her. After her avow
ed choice of Clifford Belden they all
kept aloof, for he was hot tempered
and formidably swift to avenge an In
sult. At the end of a week Norcross found
himself restless and dis -ontented with
the Meckers. He was tired of fishing,
tired of the old man's endless argu
ments and tired of the vulgar cow
hands. The men around the mill did
not interest him. and their Saturday
night spree at the saloon disgusted
him The one person" who piqued his
curiosity was Bandon. the ranger, who
was stationed not far away and who
could be seen occasionally riding by
on a handsome black horse. There
was something in his bearing, in his
neat and serviceable drab uniform,
which attracted the convalescent, and
on Sunday morning he decided to ven
ture a call, although Frank Meeker
had said the ranger was a "grouch."
His cabin, a neat leg structure, stood
just above the road ou a huge natural
terrace of grassy bowlders, and the
Gag which tluttcred from a tall staff
before it could be seeu for several
miles, the bright sign of federal ton
troi. the symbol of law and order, just
as the saloon and the mill were signs
of lawless vice and destructive greed.
Around the door flowers bloomed and
kittens played.
The cabin's interior pleased Wayland
almost a much as the garden. It
was built of pine logs neatly matched
and hewed on one side.
The ranger, spurred and belted, with
his cuffs turned back, was pounding
the typew riter w Leu Wayland apiear
ed at the open door, but he rose with
grave courtesy. "Come iu," he said,
and his voice had a pleasant inflection.
"I'm interrupting."
"Nothing serious; just a letter. There's
no hurry. I'm always glad of an ex
cuse to rest from this job." He was
at once keenly interested iu his visitor,
for he perceived in him the gentleman
and, of course, the alien.
Wayland. with .something of the feel
ing of a civilian reporting to an officer,
explained his presence in the neighbor
hood. "I've heard of you." responded the
ranger, "and I've been hoping you'd
look in on me. TLe supervisor's daugh
ter has just written me to look after
you. She said you were not very
"well."
Again Wayland protested that he wa
not a consumptive, only a studeut whe
needed mountain air, but he added. "It
is very kiud of Miss McFarlane tc
think of me."
"Oh. she thinks t.f everybody!" the
youug fellow declared. "She's one of
the most unselfish creatures in the
world."
Something in the music of this
speech, and something in the look of
the ranger's eyes, caused Wayland to
wonder if here were not still another
of Berrie's subjects. He became cer
tain of it as the young officer went on.
with pleasing frankness, and it was not
long before he had conveyed to Way
land his cause for sadness. "She's en
gaged to a man that is not her equal
In a certain sense no man is her equal,
but Beldeu is a pretty hard tyjte, and

that he is part owner of the saloon
over there."
"How does that saloon happen to be
here?"
"It's on patented laud jx so called
placer claim' experts have reported
against it- McFarlane has protested
against it. but nothing is done. The
mill is also on deeded laud, and togeth
er they are a plague spot. I'm their
enemy, and they know it, and they've
threatened to bum me out. Of course
they won t d: that, but they're ready
tojjlay any kind of trick on me.",

"They're not a bad ht over t here
on! v just rowdy. 1 suppose they're
initiating you." said Laudon.
"I didn't tome out here to be a cow
boy," responded Norcross. "but Frank
.Meeker seems to be anxious to show
me all the good old cowboy courtesies.
On Monday he slipped a burr under
my horse's saddle, and I came near to
having my neck broken. Then he or
some one else concealed a frog in my
bed and fouled my hair brushes. In
fact. I go to sleep oath night in expec
tation of some new attack, but the air
and the riding are doing me a great
deal of pood, and so I stay."
Thereafter Wayland spent nearly every-
day with the ranger, either in his
cabin or riding tue trail, and during
these hours confidence grew until at
last T.nndon confessed that his unrest
arose from his rejection by Berrie.
"She was not to blame. She's so
kind and free with every one I thought
I had a rh.nnrp. I wns rnnroito
enough to feel sorry for the other fel
lows, and now I can't even feel sorry
for myself. I'm just dazed and hang
ing to the ropes. She was mighty
peutle about it. Y'ou know how sunny
her face is. Well, she just got grave
and kind o' faint voiced and said Oh.
you know what she said! She let me
know there w as another man. I didn't

yet. The chance of seeing her of

nee her signature without a tremor."
lie smiled, but his eyes were desper
ately sad. "Oh. I'm crazy! I admit
it I didn't know such a thing couid
happen to me, but it has."
As Wayland listened to this out
pouring he wondered at the intensity
of the forester's passion. He mar
veled, too. at Berrie's choice, for there
was somethiug fine and high in I.an
don's worship. A college man with a
mining engineer's training, he should
to high in the service. "He made the
mistake of being too precipitate as a
lover," concluded Wayland. "His
forthright courtship repelled her."
