Tou said It was an unparallAed Invest ment Quite recently I learned —no matter how—that you were the princi pal owner of the Carlboti Timber com pany, Limited I as you are, somebody swindled you with that red cedar. It was a wonderful stand of timber—so- read the cruiser's report— but fifty per cent of it despite its green and flourishing appearance, is hollow-butted l And the remaining fifty per cent of sound timber cannot be logged unless the roltten timber is legged also and gotten out of the way. And I am lnforsoed that logging It spells bankruptcy." She gazed at him steadily, but with out malice; his face crimsoned and then paled; presently bis glance sought thfe carpet x While he struggled te formulate a verbal defense Against her accusation Shirley continued: "Ton had erected a huge sawmill and built and equipped a logging road befojre you discovered you had been swindled. So, in order to save as modi as possible from the wreck, you decided to unload your white elephant on somebody else. I was the readiest victim. Tou were the executor of my tether's estate —you were my guardian and financial adviser, and so you found it very, very easy to swindle me I" "I had my back to the wall," he fuaverad. "I was desperate—and it wasn't at all the bad Investment you have been told it Is. Tou had the money —more money than you knew -what to do with —and with the proceeds of the sale of those cedar, lands, I knew I could make an Investment in California redwood and more than retrieve my fortunes —make big money for both of us." "You might have borrowed the money from me. Tou know I have never hes itated to join In your enterprises." "This was too big • deal for you, Bhirley. I had vision. I could see ln ealculable riches in this redwood em pire, but it was a tremendous gamble and required twenty millions to swing It nt the very start. I dreamed of the control of California redwood; and if you will stand by me, Shirley, I shall yet make my dream come true—and half of It shall be yours. It has always been my Intention to buy hack frdm you secretly at a nice profit to you that Caribou red cedar, and with the aequlsltlbn of the Cardigan properties I would have been In position to do so. Why, that Cardigan tract In the San Hedrin which we will buy in With in a year for half a million. Is worth live millions at least And by that time, I feel certain —in fact I know— the Northern Pacific will commence building In from the south, from Wil ms." • "I shall—" he began, but he paused abruptly, ,as If he bad suddenly re membered that tact and not pugnaelty was the requirement for the handling of this ticklish situation. She silenced him with a disdainful gesture. "Tou shall not smash the Oardlgans," she declared firmly. "You are devoid of mercy, of a sense of sports ma iYbt)lp. Now, then, Uncle Seth, listen to me: Tou have twenty-four hours In which to make up your mind whether to accept my ultimatum or refuse It If you re fuse, I shall prosecute you for fraud sad a betrayal of tj-ust as my father's executor' on that r«d cedar timber deal." He brightened a trifle. "I'm afraid that would be a long, bard row to hoe, my dear, and of course, I shall have to defend myself." "In addition," the girl went on qui etly, "the county grand Jury shall be furnished with a stenographic report of your conversation of Thursday night with Mayor Poundstone. That will not be a long, hard row to hoe, Unde Seth, for In addition to the stenographer, I have another reliable witness, Judge Moore. Tour casual disposal of my sedan as a bribe to the mayor will be bard to explain and rather amusing. In view of the fsct that Bryce Cardigan managed to fright en Mr. Poundstone into returning the sedan while you. were away. And If that is not sufficient for my purpose, •I have the sworn confession of the Black Minorca that you gave him five hundred dollars to kill Bryce Cardigan. Tour woods boss. Rondeau, win alas swear that you approached him with a proposition to do sway with Brvce Cardigan. I think, therefore, that yon will readily see how Impossible s sit uation you have managed to create and will net disagree with me when I suggest that It would he better for yea to leave this county."

Without my h*ed at the lete.'UUacs "I'll risk that. I want to get rid of that worthless red cedar Umber; so I think yon had better bay it back from me at the same figures at which 70a sold It to me." "But I haven't the money and I can't borrow it I—I—" "I will have the equivalent In stock of the Laguna Orande Lumber com pany. You will call on Judge Moore to complete the transaction and leave with him your resignation as president of the Laguna Grande Lumber com pany." The Colonel raised his glance and bent it upon her In cold appraisal. She met It with firmness, aod the thought came to him: H Sbe is a Pen nington I" And hope died out In his heart He began pleading In maudlin fashion for mercy, for compromise. But the girl was obdurate. j "I am showing you more mercy than you deserve—you, to whom mercy was ever a sign of weakness, of vacillation. There is a gulf between us. Uncle Setb—a gulf which for a long time I have dimly sensed and which, be cause- of my recent discoveries, has widened until if canTno longer be bridged." He wrung his hands in desperation and slid to his knees before her; with hypocritical endearments he strove to take her hand, but she drew away from him. ' "Don't touA me," she cried sharply and jWtb a breaking note In her voice. "Ton planned t® kill Bryce Cardigan! And for that—and that alone —I shall never forgive you." She fled from the office, leaving him cringing and grovelling on the floor. "There will be no directors' meeting, Mr. Sexton," she informed the mana ger as she passed through the general office. "It Is postponed." That trying Interview had wrenched Shirley's soul to a* degree that left her faint and weak. She at once set out on a long drive, in the hope that be fore she turned homeward afealn she might regain something of her cus tomary composure. Presently the aspbaltum-paved "street gave way to a dirt road and terminated abruptly at the boundaries of a field that sloped gently upward —a field studded with huge blaek red wood stumps showing dismally through coronets of young redwoods that grew riotously around the base of the departed parent trees. From the fringe of the thicket thus formed, the terminus of an old skid-road showed and a signboard, freshly paint ed, pointed the way to the Valley of the Giants. Shirley had not Intended to' come here, but now that she had, arrived, it occurred to her that it was here she wanted to come. Parking her car by the side of the road, she alighted and proceeded up the old skid, now newly planked and with the encroach ing forestratlon cut away so that the daylight might enter from above. On over the gentle divide she went and down toward the amphitheater where the primeval giants grew. And as she approached it. the sound that is silence In -the redwoods—the thunder ous diapason of the centuries—wove its spell upon her; quickly, lmmfcept-, ibly there faded from her mind the "Who la Itr memory of that grovelling Thing e had left behind In the mlll-ofllce. Ad in its place there came a subtle peace, a feeling of awe. of wonder—such a feeling, indeed, as must come to one In the realization that man Is dlstsnt but God Is near. A cluster of wild orchids pendent from the great fungus-covered roots of a giant challenged her attention. Bhe gathered them. Farther on. In a spot where a shaft of sonllght fell, she plucked an armful of golden Cal lfronla popples and flaming rhododen dron, and with ber delicate burden die came at length to the giant-guard ed cieaiing where the halo of sunlight fell upon the grave of Bryce Cardi gan's mother. There were red rones en it—a ceuple of dozen, at least, and THE ALAMANCE CHJEANBR, CUtAHAM, N: 0. these she rearranped in order to make room for her own offering. "Poor dearl" she murmured aud ibly. "God didn't spare you for mueh happiness, did be?" A voice, deep, resonant, klndlv, spoke a few feet away. "Who is ltT" Shirley, startled, turned swiftly. Seated across the little amphitheater In a lumberjack's easy-chair fashioned from an old barrel, John Cardigan sat, his sightless gaze bent upon her. "Who is Itr he repeated. "Shirley Sumner," she answered. "Ton do not know me, Mr. Cardigan." "No," replied he, "I do not That is a name I have heard, however. Tou are Seth Pennington's niece. Is some one with yon?" "I am quite alone, Mr. Cardigan." "And why did you come here alone?" he queried. "I —I wanted to think." "Ton mean you watfted to think clearly, my dear. Ah, yes, this Is the place for thoughts." He was silent a moment. _Then: "Tou were think ing aloud, Miss Shirley Sumner. I heard you. Tou said: 'Poor dear" God didn't spare you for much hap piness, did he? Then yon knew — about her being here." "Yes, sir. Some ten yea Mi ago, when I was a very little girl, X met your son Bryce. Be gave me a ride on hfs Indian pony, and we came here. So I remember." "Well, I declare! Ten years ago, eh? You've met, eh? Tou've met Bryce since his return to Sequoia, I believe. He's quite a fellow now" "He Is Indeed." John Cardigan nodded sagely. "So that's why you thought aloud," he re marked Impersonally. "Bryce told you about her. Tou are right. Miss Shir ley Sumner. Ood didn't give her much time for happiness—just three years; but oh, such wonderful years! Such wonderful years! "It was mighty fine of you to bring flowers," he announced presently. "I appreciate that I wish I could see you. Tou must be s dear, nice, thought ful girl. Won't yon alt down and talk to me?" "I should be glad to," she answered, and seated herself on the brown car pet of redwood twigs close to his chair. "So you came np here to do a lit tle clear thinking," be continued In his deliberate, amiable tones. "Do you-come here often?" "This is the third time In ten years," she answered. "I feel that I have no business to intrude here. This Is your shrine, and strangers should not profane It." "I think I should have resented the presence of any other person, Miss Sumner. I resented you—until you spoke." "I'm glad you said that, Mr. Cardi gan. It sets me at ease." "I hadn't been up here for nearly two years until recently. Tou see I —I don't own the Valley of the Olants any more." "Indeed. To whom have you sold Itr "I do not know, Miss Sumner. I had to sell; there was no other way out of the Jam Bryce and I were in; so I sacrificed my sentiment for my boy. However, the new owner has been wonderfully kind and thoughtful. She reorganized that old skid-road so even an old blind duffer like me can find his way In and out without getting lost —and she had this easy-chair made for me. I have told Judge Moore, who represents the unknown owner, to ex tend my thanks to his client But words are so empty, Bhlrley Sumner. If that new owner could only under stand how grateful I am—how pro foundly her courtesy touches me * "ner courtesy r* Shirley echoed. "Did a woman buy the Glsnts?" He smiled down st her. "Why, certslnly. Who but s woman—and a dear, kind, thoughtful woman—would have thought to have this chair made and brought up here for me?" Fell a long silence between them; then John Cardigan's trembling band went groping out toward the girl's. "Why, how stupid of me not to have guessed It Immedistely I" he said. "Tou are the new owner. My dear child. If the silent prayers of a very unhappy old man will bring God's blessing on you—ihere, there, girl! I didn't Intend to make you weep. What a tender heart It Is, to be sure!" She took his great toil-worn hand, and her hot, tears fell on It, for bis gentleness, his benlgnsncy, bad touch ed her deeply. "Oh, you must not tell anybody! Tou musn't," she cried. He put his hand on her Shoulder as she knelt before him. "Good land of love, girl, what made you*do ft? Why should a girl like you give a hundred thousand for my Valley of the Giants? Were you**— hesitatingly—"your un cle's agent?" "No. I bought It myself—with my own money. My unde doesn't know I am the new owner. Yon see, he want ed It —for nothing." "Ah, yes. I suspected as much s long time ago. Tour uncle Is the modern type of business man. Not' very much of an idealist rro afraid. But tell roe why yen decided to thwart , the plans of your relative^" "I knew It hurt you terribly to sell your Giants; they were deer to yon for sentimental reasons. I understood, also, why you were forced to sell; no I—well, I decided the Giants would be safer In my possession than In my uncle's. In all probability he would have logged this valley for the sake HT the clear seventy-two-inch boards he could get from these trees." "That does not explain satisfactor ily, to me, why you took sides with a stranger against your own kin," John Cardigan persisted. "There must be a deeper and more potent reason, Miss Shirley Sumner." "Well," Shirley made answer, glad he could not see the flush of confusion and embarrassment that * crimsoned her cheek, "when I came to Sequoia last May, your son and I met, quite accidentally. The stage to Sequoia bad already gone, and he was gracious enough to Invite me to make the jour ney ty his car. Then we recalled hav ing met as children, presently I gathered from his conversation that he and his John-partner, as he called you. were very dear to each other. I was witness to your meeting that night— I saw him take you In his big arms aid hold you tight because you'd— gone blind while he was away having a good time. And yon hadnt told hlml I thought that was brave of yon; and later, when Bryce and Molra McTavlsh told m 4 about you—how kind you were, how you fWt your responsibility toward your employees and the community—well, I Just couldn't help a leaning tdcvard John partner and John-partner's boy, be cause the boy was so fine and true to his father's Ideals." "Ah, he's a man. He Is Indeed," old John Cardigan murmured proudly. "I dare say you'll never get to know blm intimately, but if you should " "I know him intimately," she cor rected him. "He saved my life the day the log-train ran away. And that was another reason. I owed him a debt, and so did my uncle; but Uncle wouldn't pay Us share, and I had to pay for him." "Wonderful," murmured John Cardi gan, "wonderful I But still you haven't told me why you paid a hundred thousand dollars for the Giants when yon could have bought them for fifty You bad a woman's reason, I dare say, and women always reason from the heart, never the head. How ever, If you do not care to tell me, I shall not insist. Perhaps I have ap peared unduly inquisitive." "I would rather not teH you," she answered. ' A gentle, prescient smile fringed his old mouth; he wagged his leonine head as If to say; "Why should I ask, when I know?" Fell again a restful silence. Then: "Am I allowed one guess, Miss tehlrley Sumner?" "Yes, but you would never guess the reason." lam a very wise old man. When one sits In the dark, one sees much that was hidden from him in the full glare of the light My son Is proud, manly, and the soul of honor. He needed ft* hundred thousand dollars; you knew It Probsbly your uncle Informed you. You wanted to loan him some money, but —you couldn't YoU feared to offend him by proffering It: had you proffered It he would have declined It So you bought my Valley of the Giants st a preposterous price and kept your action a secret." And he patted ber hand gently, as If to silence any denial, while far down the skid-road a voice— a half-trained baritone—floated fulnt ly to them through the forest. Some body was singing—or rather chanting —a singularly tuneless refrain, wild and barbaric. "Wliat Is thstr Shirley cried. "That Is my son, coming to fetch his old daddy home," replied John Cardigan. "That thing he's howling is An Indian war-song or paean of triumph—something his nurse taught him when he wore pinafores. If you'll excuse me, Miss Shirley Sumner, I'll leave you now.

She seated herself In the lum ber-Jack's easy-chair so lately vacate, and chin in hand gave herself up t) meditation on this extraordinary old man and his extraordinary son. A couple of hupdred ynrds down the trail Bryce met his father. "Hello. John Cardigan!" he called. ''What do yon mean by skatlyhooting through these woods wlthont a pilot? Eh?
