"It seems to nue I've always kuowu.
There's nothing strange about it. The

"Probably. I dare say i should un-
derstand the mechanism of a dress
Nutt, even If I'd never seen one," Raid
the man, amused, yet lmprenwt 1 by
her argument.
"i've always hnd vision of women

"Merrldy? Why that?"
"I'll show you. See." Sbe slipped her

her breast a thin gold chain on which
was strong a band ring. "It was

"It was very ulce of both of you, but

pondered lung and hesitated
modestly' when she saw Its low eat,
which exposeII her neck end shoulder"
In totally unaerustomed manner, for
It struck her as amazingly ludecent
until she scurried through her maga-
zines again and new that Its coustruc-
don, as compared with others, was
most conservative. Even so she shrank
at sight of herself, below the line of
sunburn, for she wee ringed about like
a blue winged teal, the demarcation
being more pronounced because of the
'natural whitenr'ss of her skin. She
sat down, dress and all, in the thick
softness of a great brown bearskin
and thought It over.
How odd It was, now that she con-
sidered it, that she needed no aid with
these alien garments; that she knew
ltunnctively their every feature; that
tbere was nu Intricacy to cause her
more than an luatant's trouble.
She was interrupted in her reverie
by the passing of a shadow across her
window and tbe stamp of a man's feet
On--- he planks at the door. Of course
It was Poleon, who bad come back to
see her. So she rose hastily, gave one
quick glance at the mirror above her
washstand, choosing the Ride that dis-
torted her image the least, and, bear-
ing him still stamping, perfunctorily
caned
-'Come Ism! tr}1-be,4gkt out."
Sbe licked the train into place be-
hind her, looping the shawl carelessly
about her In a way to vell ber modesty
effectively. She croaaed proudly to the
reading table to give bin a fair view
of her splendor aid was In the mid-
dle of tbe room before she looked up.
Taken 'bark, ebe uttered a little etran-
gled cry and made a quick movement
of retreat, only to 'beck bursula and
stand with net CLTsbl -ffrtheair,
while wave after ware of color swept
over her face.
"Great lovely dove!" ejaculated Bur-
rell fervently, staring at her.
"06, I -I thought you were Poleon.
Ile"- In spite of herself she glanced
toward her room as If to dee. She
writhed at the utter absurdity of her
appearance and knew the lieutenant
must be laughing at her. But flight
would only make it worse. Barrell,
however, was not iaughing.
"I was looking for your father," be
said, wondering If tbls glorious thing
could be tbe quaint half breed girl of
yesterday. There wait nothing of the
native about her now, for her lithe
young figure was drawn up to its
height, and her head, upon which the
long blaek bralda were coiled, was
tipped bark in a haughty poise. She
had flung her hands out to grasp the
table edge behind her, forgetful of her
shawl, which drooped traitorously and
showed such rounded lines as her or-
dinary dress scarce hinted .at. This
was no Indian maid, the soldier vowed.
No blood but the purest could puleo In
such veins; no spirit save the highest
could flash In such eyes as these. A
jealous rancor irked him at the
thought of this beauty Intended for
the Frenchman's eyes.
"Can't you show yourself to me as
well as to Poleon?" be said.
"Certainly notl" she declared. "Ile
bought dile dress for me, and I put It
on to please ham. After he nee" it I
will take I1 off, and"—
"Due': -don't taketft off -ever," aald
Burrell. "I thoughts you were beauti-
ful before because of your quainteeas
and simplicity, but now" -his chest
swelled -"why, tbls Is a breath from
home. You're like: my slater and the
girls back In Kentucky, only more
wonderful."
"Am i?' she celled eagerly. "Ain I

"Born to them," said be.
11er warmth and unaffected frank-
ness suffused 'him as she stood out,
turning to allow the beantles of her
gown, her brown hands fluttering
tremulously as she talked.
"It's my fret party dress, you know,
and I'm as proud of it as Molly is of
her rubber boots. It's too big in here
and too small right there. That girl
must have had a bad chest. But oth-
erwise It fits me at If it had been
made for me, doesn't It? And the
shoes -aren't they the dearest things?

"They don't wear as well as mocca-

front of the legs above the knees,
whete a shovel handle wears hardest;
whose eoat was ofye'Ilow mackinaw,
the sleeves worn thin below the el-
bows, where they had rubbed against

entered the man turned on him a
small, shrewd, weather . beaten faro

to Gale.

door with Poleon to examine some yel-
low grains in a folded paper.
"Be'. the boss soldier."
'Party, ain't he?"
"If you ain't good he'll get you,"
said Gale, a trifle cynically, at which
Lee chuckled.
The one eyed man snorted derisive.
