`
She nodded assent.'
"' "Are you game to start in half mi-
lieux?" he asked, holding her off at
arm's length admiringly. ,
"I'm game for anything, or 1 wouldn't
be here," sire retorted,'
All right., You just watch an en-
hibition of Speedy- peeking," 13111 de-
elared—and straightray fell to work.,
Hazel' followed him about, helping to
get the kyaks packed with food. They
caught the three horses, and 1}111
,stripped the pony, of Haeol's; riding
dgear and,placed a pack on him, Thea
o he put•her saddle on Sllk.
"He's your Private. mount hence-
forth," Bill told her laughingly. "You'll
ride him with more pleasure than you
did the first' Hine, won't you?"
'Presently they were ready to start,
planning to ride past Limping George's
camp and tell him whither they were
,s, .bound. Hazel was already mounted.
Roaring Bill paused, with ti1s'toe in
the stirrup, -and smiled whimsically at
her over his horse's back.
re "I forgot something," said he, and
went back into the cabin—whedee'he
shortly emerged, bearing to his hand
a sheet of paper upon which some-
thing was wrttten in bold. angular
characters. This he pinned on the
door. hazel rode Silk close to oro
Whitt it Wright be, and lneghed amused-
ly, for *Bill had written:
"Air. and Mrs. William Wagstaff will
be at home to their friends on and
after Tune the twentieth."
He swung up into his saddle, and
they jogged across the open. In the
edge of the first timber they pulled
up and looked backward at the cabin
drowsing silently under its sentinel
tree. Roaring B111 reached out one
arm and laid it across Hazel's shoul-
ders.
"Little person," • he said soberly,
"here's.) the end of one trail, and the
beginning of another—the longest trail
either of ns has ever faced. low does
it look to you?"'
She' caught his fingers with a quick,
bard pressure.
"AU trails look alike' to me," she
said, with shining eyes, "fast so we.
hit them together."
"What day, of the, month Is this,
131117" Hazel asked.
"Haven't the' least. idea," he an-
swered.lazily: "Time hi of no conse-
pence to me at the present apoment."
They were sitting fen the warm earth
before their cabin, their Melte propped
comfortably against .a •.log, watching

"'This is July the twenty-tlftlt, Mr,
Roaring 13111 SVagstritf," she announced.
'3 e've been •' married exactly one
tallith."
"A.' whole month?" he 'echoed, in
meek astonishment. "Yoft don't;say
so? Seems Bice It eves only day before
yesterdny, little peiaon." ,
"I' wonder," .she snuggled tip a little
:loser to him, "Lf any two people were
ever as happy as we've been?"
'13111 put his ares across' her shoulders
ind tilted her head back so that he
topld smile down into her face:
"They have been n' bunch of golden
lays, haven't they?" he whispered.
'You won't forget this joy time if we
'ver do bit real hard going, will. you,
Bezel?"
"The bird of ill omen croaks again,"
she reproved. "Why should we come.
:o hard going, as yen call it?"
"We shouldn't," he declared. "But
most people' do. And we might. One
never can tell what's ahead. By and
ey when the novelty wears off—maybe
you'll 'get sick of seeing the same old
13)11 around and nobody eise. You see,
I've always been on my good behavior
with you. Do yon like.me a lot?"
Ilio arm tightened with a quicr and
powerful pressure, then suddenly re-
lexed to let her lean back and stare
up at him tenderly. '
"I ought to punish `you for saying
Whigs like that" she pouted. "Only I
can't think of any' effective method.
Sufficient unto the day is the evil
thereof—and, there Is no evil In our
days."
"Amen:" he whispered softly—and
they fell to silent contemplation of
the rose and gold that spread in a
wonderful blazon over all the western
sky. ,
"Twenty-fifth of July, eh?" he mused
presently. "Summer's half gone al-
ready. I didn't realize it. Wp ought
to be stirring pretty soon, lady: These
northern seasons are so blessed short.
We ought to try and do a little good
for, ourselves -make bay while the sun
shines. We'll needa de moa."
".'Needs fiddlesticks," she laughed
"What do we need money furl 1
