She looked indeed precisely like the hero- ine of the prevalent western drama. Her sleeves, roiled to the elbow, dis- closed shapely brown arms, and her neck, bare to her bosom, was equally sun mit, but she was so round check- ed, so childiahly charming, that the most critical observer could find no fault with her makeup.

"Any minute now," she replied, and ba this she was not deceiving them, al- though she did not intend to volunteer any information which mightrass either Wayland or herself. Norcross tried to create a diversion, "Isn't this a charming valley?" Mona took up the cue. "Isn't it? Its romantic enough to be the back- drop in a Bret Harte play.

"But don't hold me re- sponsible for anything he has done. We seldom agree." Moore's manner changed abruptly. "Indeed! And what is the son of W W. Norcross doing out here in the for- est service?'
