J(jrdon was a strangely unbalanced :a.;a. lie ws mat Jietic. his geniality .vas rtaky heart warming, yet he was icrl'ec'Jj- t'jld bluoded in his selfish- 1 6 i I v.-,,v,i-J.'i? I X. - M - t ' .- Mr :: f !!.:iH:'-:! i Harper &. Brothers. Tie?. tie was cool and calculating, but Interference roused him to an aimost insane pitch of passion. Fickle in most things, he was uncompromising in his hatreds. O'Neil's generosity in afford ing sanctuary to his defiant mistress struck him as a personal affront, and it fanned his dislike of his rival into a consuming ratre. It was with no thought of profit that he cast about for a means of crippling O'Neii. Dan Appleton entered the bungalow one evening, wet and tired from his work, to tind Eliza pacing the floor in agitation. "What's the matter, Sis?" he inquir ed, with quick concern. His sister pointed to a copy of the Keview which that day's mail had brought, "Look at that!" she cried. "Head it!" "Oh. your story, eh:" "Head it!" lie read a column and then glanced up to find her watching him with an gry eyes. "Gee, that's pretty rough on the chief. Kid! I thought you liked him. he said gravely. "I do! J do! Don't you understand, dummy?- I didn't write that. They've changed my story distorted it. I'm furious!" Ian whistled softly. "I didn't sup pose they'd try anything like that, but they did a good job while they were at it. Why. you'd think O'Neii was a grafter and the S. Ii. and N. nothing but a laud grabbing deal!" "How dared they?" the girl cried "The actual changes aren't so many just enough to alter the eflect of the story but that's what makes it so devilish. For instance, I described the obstacles and the handicaps Mr. O'Neii has had to overcome in order to show the magnitude of his enterprise, but I "rake has altered it so that the phys ical conditions here seem to be in superable. a.nd he makes me say that the road is doomed to failure. That's the way he changed it all through." "It may topple the chief's plans over. They're very insecure. It plays riirht into the hands of his enemies, too, and. of course, Gordon's press bu reau will make the most of it." "Heavens. 1 want sympathy, no' abuse!" wailed his sister. "It's all due to the policy of the Iieview. Drake thinks everybody up here is a thief. J dare say they are. but how can I face Mr. O'Neii?" Dan shook the paper in his Ost "Are you going to stand for this?" he demanded. "Hardly. .1 cabled the office this morning, and here's Drake's answer." She read: " 'Stuff colorless. Don't allow udini ration warp judgment.' Can you beat that?" "He thinks you've surrendered to Murray, like all the others." T hate him!" cried Eliza. "I detest him!" "Who? O'Neii or Drake?" "I'.oth. Mr. O'Neii for putting me in the position of a traitor and Drake for presuming to rewrite my stuff. I'm going to resign, and I'm soing to leave Omar before Murray O'Neii comes back." "Don't be a quitter, sLs. If yo'.? throw up the job the paier will send somebody who will lie about us to suit the policy of the oflice. Show 'em where they're wrons;; show em what this country needs. Yon have your magazine stories to write." Eliza shook her head. "Bother the magazines and the whole business! I'm thinking about Mr. O'Neii. I 1 could cry. I suppose I'll have to stay and explain to him. but then I'll go home." "No! You'll stay right here and go through with this thing. I need you." "You? What for?" . "You can perform a great and n sig nal service for your loving brother He's in terrible trouble!" "What's wrong, Danny?" Eliza's anger gave instant place to solicitude. "You you haven't stolen anything?" "Lord, no! What put that into your head?" "I don't know, except that's the worst thing that could hapieu to us. I like to start with the worst." "I can't sulk in the jungle any more. l m a liaa loser. Sis. "Oh! You mean i;atalie? You like ber?" "For a writer you select the most foolish words. Like, love, adore, worship words are no good anyway I'm dippy; I'm out of my head: I've lost my reason. I'm deliriously happy and miserably unhappy. I" "That's enough!" the girl exclaimed. "I can imagine the rest." "It was a fatal mistake for her to crmo to Omar and to this very house of all places, where 1 could s?e her every day. I might, have recovered from the first joltif I'd never been her again, 'but' ne waved his hand hopelessly. "I'm beginning to hate ONcil." "You miserable traitor!" gasped Eliza. "Y'ep; that's me! I'm dead to loyal ty; lost to the-claims of friendship. I've fought myself until I'm black in the face, but it's no use. I must have Natalie."' "She's crazy about O'Neii." "Seems to be for a fact, but that doesn't alter my fix. I can't live this way. You must help me or I'll lose nry reason." "Nonsense! You haven't any or you wouldn't talk like this. What can I do?" "It's simple. Be irice to Murray and and win him away from her." "Is that all? Just make him love me?" Dan nodded. "That would be fine if you could manage it." "Why you you I" She gasped uncertainly for terms in which to voice her indignant surprise. "Idiot!" she finally exclaimed. "You simply can't be in earnest." "I am. though." He turned upon her eyes, which had grown suddenly old and weary with longing. "You poor, foolish boy! In the first place, Mr. O'Xeil will hate me for this story. In the second place, no man would look at me. I'm ugly" "I think you're beautiful." "With my snub nose and big mouth and" "l'ou can make him laugh, and when a woman can make a fellow laugh the rest is easy." "In the third place, I'm mannish and vulgar, and besides I don't care for him." "Of course you don't, or I wouldu't ask it You see. we're taking no risks. You can at least take' up his attention, and and when you see him making for Natalie you can put out your foot and trip him up." "It wouldn't be honorable. Danny." "Possibly. But that doesn't make any difference with me. You may as well realiz that I've got beyond the point where nice considerations of that sort weigh with me. If you'd ever been in love you'd understand that such things don't count at all. It's your chance to save the reason and "happiness of an otherwise perfectly good brother." "There is nothing I wouldn't do for your happiness nothing. But oh. it's preposterous!" She continued to scout suggestions that she could help him bv captivating O'Neii and stoutly maintained that she had no attraction for men. Neverthe less when she went to her room she examined herself critically in her mir ror. In the days before O'Neil's return she suffered constant misgivings and qualms of conscience, but the siirht of her brother reveling, expanding, fairly bursting into bloom beneath the in fluence of Natalie Gerard led her to think that perhaps she did have a duty to perform. She was greatly embarrassed never theless when she next met O'Neii and tried to explain that story in the lie view. He listened courteously and smiled his gentle smile. "My dear." said he finally. "I knew there had boon some mistake, so let's forget that it ever happened. I brought you a little present." Slowly she unwrapped tne parcel and then with a gasp lifted a splen didly embroidered kimono from its box. "Oh-h!" ner eyes were round and astonished. "Oh-h! It's for me!" It was a regal garment of heavy silk, superbly ornamented with golden drag ons, each so cunning worked that it seemed upon the point of taking wing. "Why, their eyes glitter! And they'd breathe Ore if I jabbed them! Oh-h!" she stared at the gift in helpless amazement. "Is it mine, honestly?" He nodded. "Won't you put it on?" "Over these things? Never!" Again Miss Appleton blushed, for she recall ed that she had prepared for his com ing with extraordinary care. Her boots were even stouter than usual, her skirt more plain, her waist more stiff and her hair more tightly smooth ed back. "It would take a tiuffy per son to wear this. I'll always keep it, of course, and I'll worship it. but I'm not designed for pretty clothes. I'll let Natalie wear" "Natalie has one of her own done in butterflies, and I brought oue to her mother also." "And you bought this for me after you had seen that fiendish story over my signature?" "Certainly." He quickly forestalled her attempted thanks by charging the subject "Now, then. Dan te'ls me you are anxious to begin your magazine work, so I'm going to arrange for you to see the glaciers and the coal fields. It will be a hard trip, for the track isn't throush yet. but" "Oh, I'll take care of myself! I won't get in anybody's way," she said eagerly. "I intend to see that you don't by going with you. So make your prep arations, and we'll leave as soon as I can get away." When he had gone the irl said aloud: "Eliza Toilet, this is yonr chance. It's underhanded and mean, but you're a mean person, and the finger of Provi dence is directing you." She snatch ed up the silken kimono and ran into her room, locking the door behind her. Hurriedly she put it ou, then posed before the mirror. Next down came her hair amid a shower of pins. She arranged it loosely about her face and, ripping an artificial flower from her party hat. placed it over her ear. then swayed grandly to mid fro while the golden dragons writhed and curved as if in joyous admiration. A dozen times she slipped out of the garment anil, gathering it to her face, kissed it; a I uozen times slie Honnetl It, "strufting , about her little room like a peacock. ! Her tiptilted nose "was red and her eves were wet when at last she laid "Oh-h!" Her eyes were round and astonished. "Oh-h! It's for me." it out upon her bed and knelt with her cheek against it. "Gee, if only I were pretty!" she sighed. "I almost, believe he likes me." Tom Slater laboriously propelled him self up the hill to the bungalow that evening and seated himself on the topmost step near where Eliza was rocking. She had come to occupy a considerable place in his thoughts. ",Where have you been lately. Un cle Tom?" she began. Slater Avinced at the appellation. "I've been out on the delta hustling supplies ahead. Heard the news?" "No." "Curtis Gordon has bought the Mc Dermott outfit in Kyak. He had a wild cat plan to build a railroad from Kyak to the coal fields, but he never got far ther than a row of alder stakes and a book of press clippings." "Does that mean that Gordon aban dons his Hope route?" "Yep. He's swung in behind us and the Heidlemanns. Now it's a three sided race, with us in the lead. Mel lon just brought in the news half an hour ago. He was on his way down from the glaciers when he ran into a field party of Gordon's surveyors. Looks like trouble ahead if they try to crowd through the canyon alongside of us." Young Appleton came panting up the hill. "Goodby. sis," he said. "I'm off for the front in ten minutes." "Anybody hurt?" Slater asked. "Not yet, but somebody's liable to be. Gordon is trying to steal the canyon, and Murray has ordered me out with a car of dynamite to hold it." "Dynamite! Why, Dan." his sister exclaimed in consternation. "We have poling boats at the lower crossing, and we'll be at the canyon in two days. I'm going to load the hill side with shots, and if they try to come through I'll set 'em off. They'll never dare tackle it." "But suppose they should?" Eliza In sisted quietly. "Then send Doc Gray with some stretchers. I owe one to Gordon, and this is my chance." Drawing her aside, he said in an -undertone: "Tou've got to hold my ground with Natalie while I'm gone. Don't let her see too much of Murray." "I'll do the best I can." she answer ed him. "but if he seems to be in earnest I'll renege, no matter what happens to you. Danny." He kissed her affectionately and fled. Dan had a thrilling experience. He planted shots of dynamite at various places along the right of way. He met Gordon and completely cowed him. Gordon, desperate, appealed to Murray O'Neii to call off Appleton and his men. O'Neii told Gordon they were follow ing his instructions to the letter. Gor don then sought to strengthen his po sition through the women. Vie prom ised to marry Gloria if she returned with him. Natalie persuaded her moth er not to go back unless Gordon mar ried her immediately, which he refused to do. (To Be Continued.) 800 ACRES LAND FOR SALE $20 per acre if taken at once.
