But the escape had been a narrow one and the cold perspiration still oozed from his forehead. as 'he hurried away with quick steps of fear and Billy's ° . eyese seeming to bore twin holes through his back. Of course Billy had read of the Grayford affair � m the papers, and had he looked fair- ly at his college friend of old the chances would have been all in favor of a recognition. And though Billy would have promised. Wilson anything upon earth, the latter knew one might as well hope to dry' Niagara- with, a blotter as to dam Billy's mouth once he was out of sight. But the ex- perience had been worth the scare. Obviously he could not remain in any town however remote;, at least until a well -grown beard 'and mustache screened his face. And it would be a matter of many weeks before that time carne.

But Stoddard. _knew that once well broken in, strength and tirelessness would be his once more, while endless ;patience must come to him who cannot be otherwise than endlessly patient. Into • those sound- less woods, therefore, he would go and side by side' with the carousing ones who had surrounded, him the night before learn to the ultimate the bitter lesson of the transgressor. At the "Lumbermen's • Rest" he made guarded inquiries and learned that John Findlay, then sitting in the little recruiting office across the way, was hiring men for the woods, and to that man he went without loss of time. Findlay, gray of temples, lean and musclar, listened to his plaint as he might have listened to a parrot. Arid fearing that :he was about to be summarily rejected at the close of his speech, Wilson lengthened it with an earnestness that compounded.vrith each sentence uttered. Then when he felt that to say more would be to weaken his cause, he leased tallnng as he mutely awaited the other's de- cision. But instead of dismissing the applicant with a word, as the indif- ferent listening had boded, the logger now sat searching the younger man with eyes behind which lay as keen pose you could learn to swamp.

In spite of the humil- iation of it he smiled grimly at the thought he, Wilson Stpddard, college graduate and quarter of a millionaire was not intrinsically worth twenty dollars a month and his board. But he soon would be, or know the reason why, and when that time came he would see to it that Join Findlay did not regret his generosity. Such were his thoughts as with the lumberman's fast woods in mind he hurriedly se- cured his telescope and ran for the depot.

Before him lounged a burly fel- low with one end of a taut rubber band between has teeth and the other be- tween his fingers; strumming upon it by the hour vacuous of thought as a small- puppy chewing upon a stick—the mind of a child in the body of a Hercules. To Stoddard's relief they ignored his presence ab- solutely; yet it was with satisfaction that at the end hf the third hour he stepped from the train at Archer and cast his first glance over the hamlet. Before him stood the company store and office; a sawmill,, two long log buildings where the mill employees ate and •slept, a private log cottage or two, a stable and nothing more, while close about it hovered the green ranks of the unbroken forest. Picking up his telescopethetraveller entered the little store. A young woman about twenty years of age stood behind the counter, and' as Wilson first saw her he made an in- voluntary movement as if about to pause, then continued his advance with much the, sante sensations , as though he had, in traniping through the brush and deadfalls of this sombre woodland, suddenly chanced upon a flower of exquisite lovilness and frag- rance full-blown amidst the • snows. Composite beauty 'was hers, combining the fair soft skin ' of the northern races with the dark masses of wavy hair and unfathomable eyes of a beauty of the far south. Yet Barbara Findlay, despite the blended types, was as purely. American an himself, who traced his Yankee ancestors back through the mists of five generations. Of medium height arid more slenderly made than otherwise, yet without the- slighest suggestion of thinness, she looked. at him with the quiet poise of a well-bred woman of the cities as he dropped his luggage and faced her from across the narrow counter. She aid not ask him. what he •wished as a saleswoman would have done, and Stoddard after a minute's pause to ascertain if she was the one who was to wait upon him,' finding her still silent, addressed her. "I wish to get a lumberman's out- fit. Perhaps you ran tell me if' this is the right place," he said, and paus- ed. She swept him tip and dawn with a quick glance that ' contained per helps a bit of surprise at hearing a, voice se well modulated coming from one who dressed as a laborer, then averted her face slightly as she an- swered him.

To Wilson's immaculate physical ,•in$tincts the place was revolting in the extreme, and for an instant. he hesitated upon the verge of retreat to • the: cleaner car behind. But a squall muffled by dis- ,, tance decided him, and with the resol- I -tion to accustom himself as speedily as possible to th~s se men Who were to upon LIFT CORNS OR ., CALLUSES OFF Doesn't hurt!

Wilson paid- his bill .. and rattled what was left of his fortune in the corner of his pocket. It amounted to less than a dollar, but there would be no necessity, barring the unfore- seeable, for him to spend money dur- ing the long winter now elese at hand. And at the end of five months' work and saving he should be able to emerge from the woods with nearly one hun- dred and fifty dollars in his pocket— a sum just about egi§tivalent to what he ,had been accustomed to spend weekly in times gone by. A few days back the thought of facing. a prospect •as drear as this would have been al- most` unbearable, but with the inev- itable =before -him .,,oddard. thrice blessed• his lucky stars• that work which would bring him an honest livelihood awaited his untrained hands. One thought of Grayford and all self - commiseration instantly vanished. Buried in reflections such as these he stood motionless _ by the stove, his eyes fastened upon the window, past which great snowflakes were eddy- ing like down plucked from beneath the wings of a waterfowl. The girl slipped easily from her perch upon the stool to gather up p two .bulky packages of groceries which - the clerk had just finished wrapping up for her, and taking one in each hand she left the store with', a fare- well nod to Ford but without having glanced at Stoddard since the cainple- tion of his purchases). Aroused from his revery by her brisk departure he looked after her through the pane. A hill, steep and { heavily blanketed with snow arose before 'her, accessible only by an almost untrar pled! trail that led to a well-built log cottage near the summit. Stoddard, idly watching her break her way through snow that came half way to her knees, saw her trip upon her skirt, and los- ing' her balance by reason of her un- wiedly packages, sit down upon one of them with much suddenness. The distance , was short between' her and the store, and as she scrambled to her feet and looked at the paper sack upon which she had sat, the rueful. ness of her face forced a smile to the lips of the watcher. Plainly 'she was in mild distress, . and without the slightest hesitation he opened the door, passed quickly to her side and picked up the bag that had been beneath her. A thick white .and yellowish ooze was straining from the bottom of it, and at this sight of the wreckage she had caused the girl's frown vanished and her laugh awoke; the laugh that had seemed to sleep so lightly on her lips and which the man had thought he would like to hear. "I shall never sit on eggs again. I am not a success, she said. "And only think! They are forty cents a dozen." He shook his head gravely, dulyim- pressed with the seriousness of the situation as with a handful of snow he sought to stay the sticky flow and cleanse the bottom of the bag, while she, . shaking her skirts and gathering them about her shoe tops prepared to continue the ascent. Stoddard peered cautiously into the bag, "Twenty cents gone there are only six, left. Shall I run back to the store and get you another. nestful?" She looked at ilooking, the longest building being dis- him with a faint smile• joined in the .fiddle by a roofed -over "No. I am alone tgg••-night and I ! passageway.

Even his tall, well-built figure was smothered in the flapping folds \ef the ill-fitting garments, and he scowled back at the now - scowling villain of the mirror with deep- disfavor. His purpose had been to,, make himself look as unlike himself, as possible, and that he had succeeded so well should have been a matter of self-congratulation; yet he could not help but wish that she had seen him .as he had been a year be- fore. With a sigh` of 'regret he turn- ed to his purchases and began straight- ening them out preparatory to getting into them, telling himself that his looks were even comelier. than he would have hat them. For were he as hideous as a' gargoyle, the face of • a totem. pole. or a Burmese god, why not all the better? What mattered it? CHAPTER III He changed the workingman's suit for his woodsman's . garb and felt the better for it. It fitted him somewhat closely yet gave him plenty of free- dom of movement and harmonized far better with his surroundings than had the garments just discarded. And al- though he was practically unconscious of the fact,' it became him immensely. He was tall and erect, and though somewhat wasted. from late hours and lack of muscle -building nourishment, the natural color of health had already begun to return to his face and his eyeballs were clear white once more .• With each deep breath from the pines he felt the returning surge of his old strength, and the - bare. thought of the life he had so long lived. filled hint with a loathing inexpressible. But he knew that while the great battle a- gainst his enemy had been won for all time, there would be skirmishes still to be fought. The shock of.that hideous day was still upon him with -almost months to sickening force, but° in the m come there would be many a. night when he would lie sleepless through the long hours and when the tempta- tion would come to him to arise, and for the time being at least, seek for=. gstfulness in the embrace of - a foe that lulls as it destroys. He had no fear that he would yield, yet his guard must be ever up and his front the sternest and most uncompromis- ing: ncompromis- in He left his cast-off clothing and telescope in the care ; of the store, keeper, swung his blanket roll across his back, and securing minute direc- tions as to the location of Camp 5, eight miles distant, set out for it. The big eddying flakes had blurred the trail and he trod its dim outlines with the alertness and caution of one who for the first time finds himself de- pendent upon .his own resources amidst unfamiliar surroundings. Pine, tam- arack, cedar, hemlock, birch; fir and hardwoods hemmed him about, silently mysterious, seeming to close in behind and before him in a solid wall . yet parting narrowly to let him pass as he strode against them along the shadow trough of the winding- trail. Save for the soft cruch of his feet in the snow the silence was absolute; save for himself it was a lifeless soli- tude, vast, depressing, bearing down upon hire Iike a great soft weight as though he were being smothered by' tons of feathers. Never before had he felt such inexpressible homesick- ness; never before such a hunger for, the companionship and sympathy of dome one who could understand. Yet he well knew he was only' upon the threshold of an existence which must ever" be ,in lonely I places and) among those whom he coeld never call heart comrades even • 'tli ugh one blanket might cover .both.
