CHAPTER VI.
It was one of Bill. Bronson's basic
creeds to look his situittiori squarely
in the face. He had tried to avoid a
truth that ever grew clearer and more
manifest—hie love for Virginia.
He had told himself he wouldn't
give' his love to her. IIe would hold
that back, at least. He had reminded
himself of the bridgelese gap that
separated them. But- there was no
use of. trying further. In the stress
and passion of the melody he had
found out the truth.
But if he couldn't keep this knowl-
edge from himself, at Least he could
hold it from the girl. It would only
bring her, unhappiness. It would de.
stroy the feeling of comradeship for
him that he had begun to observe in
her. It would put an insurmountable
wall between them.
Virginia had no suspicion of his
Every day they delayed, their chances thoughts. She was still enthralled
" But nems,

the woods if we can just find it. And
I don't intend to delay about that. If
the snow gets much deeper, we'd have
to have snowshoes to hint at all."
"You mean—go hunting today?"
"As soon as we can stir up a meal."
Dressing warrniy, they ventured out
into the snowy wastes. Bill walked in
front, breaking trail. Ile carried the
ancient rifle ready in his hands.
He earnestly hoped that they might
ren into game at once. Later the
moose would go to their winter feed-
ing grounds, far down the heights

The girl's relief showed in her face.

"What does it mean?" she asked,
breathlessly.
"Winter. The northern winter.
I've seen it break too many times.

Taking Ways
The stranger stopped outside the
village jewellery shop and gazed ht•
tently at a find display of silver cups
in the window.
A few minutes later he was talking
to the jeweller in the shop.
"What are these big silver cups
for?" the stranger asked, picking one
up and gazing critically at It.
"Those are the cups to be awarded
as prizes at the village sports meet.
Ing," returned the jewelter'prondly.
"For racing?" asked the stranger.
The jeweller nodded in reply.
"\Veil," said the stranger, edging
nearer the doer and still holding the
cup, "suppose you race me for this
one."

The bronze horees-'surmounting San
Marco Cathedral in Venice were made
in Corinth , nearly 20 centuries ago.,
They were taken from Corinth to
Rome by Nero, to Constantinople by
Constantine; thence to Venice, and
then to Paris by Napoleon, being re-
stored to Venice after his fall.
