Children~ Mrd CAS ORI,A 1 1 THE HURON EXPOSITOR l r redeemed the promise! The Rider the' King • Log By HOLMAN DAY HARPER & BROTHERS (Continued front last week.) The red of pleased surprise mount- ed to his cheeks. His flush and his confusion gave her an impression of boyish ingenuousness and her smile revealed her approbation. "1 was afraid you had sort of for- gotten us folks up here," he said, awkwardly. - "Buh!" snapped the father. "Out on ye, Donald, for a traitor for think- ing that!" She felt, hearing • that loyal de- fense, another of those pangs of regret which % •painted her when she remembered how nearly she had been a traitor even to her own father . And just as she had striven remorsefully to make up by added' affection for her shortcomings in the matter of her lathery so she .emended extra graciousness to her early friends of the Toban. From that delightful and most en- couraging interview with her young Kezar hurried down to his grand- father, • who was pottering, about his garden, taking advantage of his af- ter -supper leisure. "There's the girl, gran'dad—there's the one for me! I don't care if she has been through college --it . hasn't spoiled her. And she wants me to go riding with her, just as we used to. It all looks mighty good to me!" The old man game to the fence, stepping careftiliy between the rows of his old-fashioned posies. "Oh, Donnie boy, if you could only know how happy I have been ever since she came home! I knew she , was for you when I saw her. I feel it more and iiwre every day. She is good and kind! She does not hold her head high. . She has come back home be- cause she wanted to come back. She has told me so." "Yes, she told me the same, " Of course, there's never any telling just what slant a girl will take, but I've never been thrown down by one yet!" "Don't talk that way, Donnie! It doesn't fit the talk you make about Clare. You may forget- and say it where others may hear. We mustn't have themtelling llin now g t laes t o her, that you have become my own good boy once more. And you are keeping yourself away from those who can tell tales about you, aren't you?'.' he inquired, anxiously: Donald showed impatience. "Of course I am! Say, look here! You're doinlg too much worrying about me, gran'dad. You even got all fussed -up about the X. K. check. And lately you've been worrying because L couldn't pull the money out as quick as we had hoped. But to -day I hand- ed you back the money ars we have split five thousand profit between us, haven't we? Now don't do any more worrying.. I have shown you that I can do business. I'll do it ire this case." _"You shall have my help, Donnie! You're my own boy and are doing just as I would have you do." He clutched the pickets and thrust his face .'close. "Did you notice John? Something's afoul of him." "He's in a bad way, according to my notion," "He is coming to the end', boy! It's in his face and in his voice. I've watched many of them in past times. The pump is clogging." He patted his hand on his breast. "She needs somebody like you. You are showing that you can do business. I have al- ways , worked for his interests; work for hers. She needs you, I say. It's the one great thing for me to bring about. She can't handle it when it's all left on her hands." "But don't you suppose there's somebody amongst those down -river rats who has his line on her?" His eyes narrowed with the thoughts his jealously suggested. "Just think! She has been away all this time! She must have seen a lot of slick ones." "I tell you she has never mentioned any im her letters," "But most often girls do ' those things on the sly'." the lover said, his own, experience in such matters put- ting teeth in his gnawing suspicions. "The mail comes through my hands. I'll watch for you, Donnie. Yes, I'll even lift the flap and look," he whisp- ered. "It's for her own best good to save her from one of those toads. She is meant for you, and you're go- ing to have her!" 'If one of 'em comes here chasing her up, then you can bet that some hospital will get a case," declared the young Kezar. He started away after that ugly declaration. "There's nothing to do at the stable," - called his grandfather. ``1 fed your horse and bedded him." "Much obliged. I'm going to use him." "But, Donald$" "Don't thinkthat every time I ride out of this yard I'm starting for the Portage. I tell you you needn't worry about me!" It was an insulting re- pulse. The grandfather went back to his posies, culling here and there. He was gathering a nosegay for Clare. On his knees, he peered after the young man when Donald galloped away. "I don't believe their stories! I don't. believe them! It's jealously. The boy is seeing the right way now. And he is showing what he can do!" , Ins the mail for the early train of the next day the old man had placed a ` letter returning the amount of the X. K. check to Kavanagh's balance in the bank. Now he could look John Kavanagh in the face again; he could give his posies to Kavanagh's daugh- ter without feeling like a thief hiding guilt. His boy had promised and had j The boy- rode far that night, fol- ! lowing down the winding road beside the river. The July moon had filled the bowl of the earlier crescent with white radiance which overflowed upon the wooded stretches and, the shin, mering waters. It was a wonderful night for a lover to be abroad with his thoughts. Faint and far trillings from ponds where the sleeping lilies • were serenaded from the broad, float- ing leaves by minstrel frogswere sounds which made for pensive lonel'i- ness, which ,is the dearest mood for lovers' contemplation. But Kezar's mood was plainy not "fitted for the .peace , of that night. He muttered, occasionally, scowled at the stars while he pondered, and kicked irritable heels •into .the flanks of his• horse -when the, lagging animal nipped at the wayside leaves. Late in) the evening he dismounted and stabled his horse in a bark lean-to close to the ; riv'er. A large island, divided the stream and a narrow beach whose white sand showed many foott prints suggested 'that here a ferry made its landing. There was another suggestion of a ferry in a bar of iron suspended from the branch of a birch and clearly outlined against the white of the trunk. The handle of a small mallet was stuck into a cleft in the tree. The iron gave forth mellow reson- ance when Kezar struck it with the mallet. It was evident that he was sounding his owns individual call, for he grouped the blows and paused carefully between the measured beats. It was as if he had evoked a .fairy or a dryad from. the shadows on the opposite shore. A white figure was limned ofr a moment against the gloom cast by the trees, and a call, softly modulated, came to him. It was a sound which fitted the hour and the place; it was strangely similar to the Weird, faint and far call of the. loon —the night call. Then the white figure hurried down to the strand and a canoe came out' into 'the full glory of . the moonlit river. The dipping paddle flasher radiance in his eyes; the blade shuttled- rapidly, showing the. haste of the one who wielded it. The young man, waiting on the shore, did something which would not be sanctioned by even the most lax iliterpretation of the liturgy of lovers: he lighted a fresh cigar from the shortened butt of the one he had been smoking—so he waited for the girl. It was a girl! She was standing in the canoe •with the poise ankh pose of an expert, paddling with free strokes. As she came on he surveyed her gloomily. ,In her , white garb, with the silver water , gleaming- all about her and behind her, she deserved more cordial and favoring gaze. Int her grace and strength and bold agility she was a part of that great outdoors which surrounded- them. She called to him when she was near the ' shore. Her. voice was low, but the thrill in it expressed passion- ate impatience. "The :moon tell me. She tell me that you come to me! Alloonoh! Mine!" _ With the mere inflection of her voice she wreathed with meaning those last two words so that they became exposition of her longing, her tendern)ess, and her utter , devotion. He said nothing. He did not take the cigar from his mouth. She drove the nose of the canoe upon the shore, leaped out, and cast herself non him with an abandon whioh tookno note 'of his coldness. "The moon! You look at her and she tell you to come. Is it not so?" She spoke the words, slowly in low and tense tones. A touch of accent marked her speech. She added a few tender, cooing words in the border patois, a language made up of the Norman French of the old Acadians, with words from the limited vocabu- lary of .the Abnakis and the Mellicite tribes. He looked down into her face; the dark eyes she raised to him brimmed with happy tears. The masses of her hair, black anld. glossy, disarranged by her haste, were so low on her fore- head that she was gazing up at him' through tendrils which strayed. "Orli, yes! She told you. When her face grow big and she turn it this way, I come here and, wait. I know she tell you! Kiss me! Kiss me! Cheri! Mintel" He removed the cigar from his mouth and bent down to her. With arms about his neck, she set her. lips' upon his and clung there avidly.

His mind was wholly occupied with another thought. "Ani Indian! My God! what ever possessed me? He had not asked that question of himself in the early days of his associ- ation with Lola Nicola Hebert. There were two denerattions of Acadtians ` between her and Noel the Bear, chief of the Mellicites. Onle easily forgot that she had Indian blood. For she was the daughter of Onesime Hebert, who owned the great island and in. whose house, set in the midst of broad acres, there were family -heir- looms of the seventeenth century, brought* in the bro1.-bellied sea - wagons fro/11_0e ports of Normandy. She was alluhngly, • dashingly, delici- ously French, he had felt. He had wooed her with a , fervor which equaled her own. It was only old Noel the Bear who insisted that her'name, hould - be simply Lola Nicola, for she was princess of her tribe, appointed so by him. Even though she was Onesime's daughter she was the old chief's great-grankidaughter and he always claimed that her allegiance to her tribe overshadowed her mere family relations, so jealously and bitterly did Noel view the passing of the ancient Mellicites, absorbed one by one in an aliens race. Noel the Bear, at one hundred and two year of age, went about on his affairs as usual. He was so wrinkled that it seemed as if the talons of time had viciously goug- ed his checks as hint to him that he'd better lie down and die; his jowls hung like flapping curtains from his high cheek -bones. But Noel the Bear had no notion of dying. Each autumn after the tribal Feast of the Maize, he went alone into the wilderness, fasted ten days, and then ate the tail of a beaver, cooked with incantations and charms spoken and woven. about the pot in which it simmered. "Huh!" said Noel the Bear, looking down on the world, for he was tall above the average and held himself straight, "no need die. Beaver tail. Indian medicinle," All at , once, for Kezar, the 'girl seemed especially associated with the old Indian. She was not .so much Lola Hebert, daughter of tiie farmer,, as she was -the princess of the tribe; the manner in which she had just come to him, standing in her canoe " and paddlinglike a Mellicite brave, had made him frown. It suggested her 'ancestry. Once it• would have fascin- ated. him as all her other ways had caught his fancy and stirred •his pas- sion at the first. • Quit it!" he muttered agaixNst her lips. "I can't breathe!" "It's only a short kiss for so long • itne away from me." In her own warmth she still refused to notice his' aloofness. She began to scatter little pecks of kisses on his cheeks. "Like the stars on the sky! They make the sky so much prettier." "My face isn't much like the sky," he said, with petulance. "Oh, but it will be so if you make it blue. You are not so glad to be here, eh?" she asked, wistfully. "Of course I'm glad to see you. What do you think I'm riding away down here for?" But he failed' to muster fervor; he knew in his own heart why he had ridden down. It was her mood to make fetish of the time of the big moon: He feared what she might do if he did not comes Ito her. He knew something about 1 the dangers in her temperament when she was crossed. In his new state of mind, int his new apprehension in regard to publicity in his affairs, he was not of a mind to provoke any explosion. He put his cigar in his mouth. Its fire was out—it was cold. He mut- tered an oath and drew back from her seeking a match. "But you have so much time for that when I am not in your arms," she remonstrated. "I am nervous. Smoking quiets me." She was Silent while he relighted the tobacco. "Oh, I like it that you shall have • comfort, though have not the kisses. Now! Now! In the canoe, quick! I shall ferry you!" "But see here, Lola!, 1 . haven't the time to -night! I hive only ridden down to— I say, come over here and sit on the bank with me. I've got to be hurrying back in a little while. "Hurry back—in a little while!" she repeated, incredulously. He went C to the bank and sats down. "one!" , she pleaded. "The hours are so short. The sun conies too quick. Now the moon is here forus. "I can't stay—not to -night, Lola. I've only run; down to tell you that I love you—love you just the same. But I'm awful busy these days and you must be patient if you don't see me quite so often. If I'm kept back from corning you remember what I've just told you. Be patient.- I'1l get around' as soon and as oftert as I possibly can." She did not seem to bei paying much attention to his excuses or to grasp what he was saying. She kneeled down in front of him. "But why don't you come in my canoe instead of sit here? Cheri! It is now late. The sun will soon be here." "Listen! I tell you—" "All day I have gathered flowers. There are roses. There are dog - lilies. And daisies and _some of the first clovers! I shall surprise you. You shall see and laugh!" "But Lola," he protested', impatient- ly, "you mustn't go to trimming that camp up in such gaudy style. Your folks will be suspecting something." "Come and see! It spoils all -to tell ahead." She seemed resolved to pay littler heed to his manner or his words. "Come and' see!" "Confound it, get what I'm saying into your head! I can't come across to -night. I can't!" "There's the night for us. It can belong to nobody else." "Furthermore, I'm not going to let you take any more chances on staying out, as I have done. It's dangerous." "But when you coaxed me to come to the camp you said it was not dangerous," she cried, her eyes open- ing on him. "You said they would not be coming to my room ---because my pere and mere are tired and sleep so sound." "But I have been thinking it over. It isn't safe." "But if they da come! If they do find out! We shall have something to say. Have we not?" she asked, with pride. "Oh yes. We can tell 'em that, of course. But think what a de' ilish row it's going to stir up! The story 'will be up to Sainte Agathe in fifteen minutes—news travels through the air in these parts." ' "Yet sometime the news must get to Sainte Agathe." "But I have explained to you about my grankifather how notional he is how -he'd probably give all his money to somebody else. He's rich," lied the young man, magnifying Abner Kezar's modest estate. "Money or niy father or my mother! You come first, before them! We shall always have each other. We shall not be sorry. "No, but we've got to use a little common sense and handle this thing like we'd handle eggs.. Let's be espe- cially careful from now on. And then it will come out all right—give it time. That's the way to do." He tried hard to sound convincinlg. Dr. DeVan's French Pills A reliable Regulating Pill for Women. $5 a. box.
