IN IHI- MINI- UUII Ml
'
By JOHN TRENT.
A scarlet tanogor flashed through
tho darkness of tho plno wood; there
en mo a shot that stoppod it in midair
and sent It fluttering to earth where It
lay very stlU.
Scott Clayton, dreaming Idly on tha
brown plno ncedlos, leaped to his feet
nt sight of tho tragedy and with a cry
of mingled tuigor and pity held tha
(lend bird In his hands.
Thoro camo the sound of a gay wills
tlo and a girl stoppod Into view; she
woro a Jaunty hunting costume of nut
blown and a gun was tucked under
"At letf 1 1 can get a drink of water,1'
mused Scott as he hid his camera
among some vlneB and slid down the
pine needles Into the orchard.
The way through the orchard led
among tall grasses and a wild tangle
of strawberry vines. At last he camo
to a small and thriving kitchen garden
and walking between rows of swee
corn he came to a tumble-down dei
tached kitchen.
A glance within showed that It waa
untenanted and simply served as a
storehouse for flrowcod and for garden
tools. Now there appeared the fine old
.house, dignified oven in Us splendid
ruin.
Bmoko was curling upward from a,
tottorlng chimney. Expecting to &nq
sorao good natured mammy within;
presiding over tho frying bacon whose
rcdolenco assnllcd his nostrils, Scotlj
thrust his head among tho vines thatj
Imlf covered tho open window.
Quickly spoken words, uttered In tho

thou down ngaln to tho bird in his
hand.
"Ah, you hnvo found him?" Sha
Hluppad forward with extended baud.
Hut Scott drow back a little nnd his
gray eyes expressed strong disapproval
of tho fair hunticss.
"It was really you, then?" ho asked
Incredulously.
"Why, of .course Is it eo unusual
for a woman to hit tho mark?"
"No, but It eeema extraordinary that
a woman should dellbdrntoly destroy
such n beautiful crcnturo." Scott
stroked tho scarlet of tho tanager'n
whig.
A red Hush stained tho creamy skin.
"Why not, since men havo set tho
example?" sho flared.
"Ono expects acts of wanton cruelty
from sorno men, but from women
none at all," was his quiot answer.
Sho bit her lip thoughtfully. "My ex.
cuse is -a good ono you ennnot deny
that. I am collecting' for the Ciinnel
museum."
"I beg your pardon." Scott laid thq
dead bird in her outstretched hand and
as ho did so n drop of blood, unnoticed
on tho scarlet feathers, stained her
hand, lie took out n handkerchief nnd

tho shot rang out ourc more and then
the anxious mother bird had gone to
join her dead mate
As tho girl bent to pick tho bird.
Scott's strong hand closed tightly on
her rounded wrl&L.whlle ho snatched
tho dead tanagcr away with tho other
hand. When ho had dropped tho bird
in tho pocket of his loose coat ho re
leased her wrist and stepped back.
"I beg your pardon, but It appeared
necessary under tho circumstances."
Her face was white as snow and her
eyes blazed angrily. ,
"How dare you?" she panted. "How
dare you touch me?"
"I have apologized for tho rudeness
It was necessary."
"It waB my bird I brought It
dowu."
"It was my bird you killed It," was
his accusing answer.
"Tour bird!" sho laughed scornfully.
"I have explained to you that I am a
collector for tho Grlunel museum. I
wanted a pair cf scarlet tanagers and
their youngI was to be well paid for
It and I brought down tho male bird
and this one that you have takon from
mo Is its mate. I have located tho
nest with tho young and well, I havd
been watching them for several days,
and now " sho suddenly lost com
mand of her voice nnd It trembled
alarmingly.
Scott's grave oyes never left her
faco.
"Hut they wero my birds first," he
mild gently. "You see I am a student
of birds nnd these tanagers happen to
bo dno of my charming studies. My
i camera concealed thoro among tho
brushwood has been trained on tho
troo for two days. Tho book 1 am
writing is a plea for tho Uvea of our
birds tho pictures 1 am malting will
not only lllustrato tho book but will
bo used In every schoolroom in tho
country as a means to educato the
children in love and preservation of
tho lives of our wild birds'."
Tho girl's faco changed as Bhe lis
tened to his cxplauantlou. A wistful
look came Into her dark eyes and hor
lips quivered eo that sho placed her
fingers against them.
"I am very sorry," sho said in a low
tone, and without another word she'
turned swiftly and disappeared down'
tho dark avenues of pines.
Several days later, Scott Clayton,
tired and hot after a long tramp!
through the woods In pursuit of an;
elusive wood pigeon who persistently
refused to pom before his camera,'
camo out on the edge of a plney knoll'
and discovered himself in a now coun-
try.
Tho woods ended here and before,
him stretched the remains of a fine'
I old plantation; an ancient orchard, un
cultivated fields, a glimpse qf tumble-'
down negro quarters and -ntald1 tall
oaks could be seen the chimney of a
house,

"Good mo-ninc uncle; Is your mas

"Marco Hlair? Yncsah, ole marso Is

Scott followed him Into n cold, dim,
sitting loom, furnished with flue old
reahognuy. Uncle Gcorco left him to
return presently with a cooling. drlnK
or which iloatcd sprigs of frcgran
nint.
Then Colonel Hlair tottered In. an
ancient relic of tho Confederacy.
"Sir, I am honored." he said holding
out a hand.
"I must apologize for this Intrusion,"
begnn Scott when they wero seated.
"My name Is Clayton. Scott Clayton;
I'm an ornithnlosirt In n way. 1 am
writing n book uncut llrds and I flrtl
that I need some help Same one has
surgestcd that your niece"
"My grand-niece," corrected Colonel
Hlair.
"Your grand-niece might be able to
assist me, as she Is thoroughly versed
in bird lore. You see 1 shall bo several
months longer In reoperation and If
she could help mo the remuneration
would be no object" Scott's voice
trailed away suggestively.
"Mr. Clayton, 1 am very grateful.
Circumstances make it necessary for
my little grand-niece to support both
1 1 us and her present employment Is
most dlstatestful to hdr it would be
to any woman's delicate Instincts, but
Amy is a gallant soldier and sho has
not flinched In tho face of of actual
poverty and dlsngreeablo duty. 1 will
venture to say that she will bo delight
ed to take up more congenial work. If
jou will excuse mo, I as ill call hor to
take part In our conference
Ho hobbled from the room and Scott
found himself waiting Impatiently for
tho coming of his huntress of tho pint
woods. Presently sho came, garbed In
a soft white gown, and Iter dark eyes
wero shining llko twin stnrH and her
soft lips woro parted in a smile.
Tho conference was u short ono tiuJ
when Scott left tho house ho had en
gaged Amy Dlulr as his assistant ut
tho munificent salary of $15 a week
mora than twice tho amunt sho had
r-arncd with the museum.
Their acquaintnnco began over tho
dead body M n scarlet tanagcr which
tho girl had killed. Many a scnrlettan
ager and his sober mate many a
mocking bird, meadow lark and bobo
link did they shoot after that, but It1
wno with tho harmlois enmora, and',
when tho book was completed and
ready for publication Scott asked Amy
Hlalr's permission to dodlcnte tho vol

Amy."
