Lately he had avoided any unnecessary intercourse with Petry, and Pe try had avoided him. Three people Instead of two alighted from the two-thlrty- elght. Decency demanded that he should not look too dumbfound ed, but Barry’s thoughts went racing back to the Perch, where there was no Nancy to meet Cleo Pendleton, who kad dashed across a continent without warn ing. "Hello, Cleo!” “ ’Lo Barry, you needn’t look so petrified. Didn’t Nancy get my letter?” "Why no, I think not. At least it may have been forwarded, too late for her to let me know.” He remembered his duties as host. “So you see It’s a real surprise,” he added hastily, and turned apologetically to the other two. "I’m frightfully sorry,” he said, “but Mrs. Duane won’t be able to receive you. She was— called away, only a few days ago. It was very unexpected—and It had to happen at the wrong time, of course. I’ll do my best to be both of us.” “0-o-o-h!” said Cleo, softly. "You’ll be a wonderful * substi tute, Barry, but It’s a shame that Nancy had to go.” Her eyes were sparkling. Damn Cleo, Parry thought moodily. Nancy might at least have sent him word about that letter. That the lettei had mere ly been another of Cleo's little fictions he could scarcely know. Nancy had let him doivn again. Gage gave him a jharp look and said “Too bad, Voo bad!” lu his gruff way. Barry was really grateful for the interruption of Cleo’s clear vo’ce. “Barry, you’re terribly disap pointing. I thought you’d look like a movie hero, and you have n’t even a gun to shoot the rat tlesnakes.” ‘.‘I left It home. They don’t usually bite a Cadillac.” Bafry was finding his feet again. “I’ll look affer tho luggage, Mr. Gage." “Tour town looks a little tired, but your air is great.

T. BLACKBURN. D-24-41. Trustee. From a sheltered point on a rocky hillside Anne saw them go by. She wondered what she would have done with her days with out Comet. Petry had brought him down the same day that she had left the Perch. “I guess he kinda belongs here, don’t he? It ain’t safe not to have any way of gettin’ out except on foot.” Comet had brushed her with a velvet muzzle, and Anne bad not had the heart to let him go. It was nearly dark when she unsaddled Comet and went up the familiar path to the little house. Home was lonely. Once inside, she went about the busi ness of preparing a meal. Not because she was hungry but be cause she must keep doing things. When the meal was over she wandered out again, looking up at the low, bright stars. How long could she live here? Where would she go if she left? How long, with her dwindling capital and her slender knowledge ot, ranching, would Trail’s End yield her a living? The money she had brought in the little gold bag was nearly gone now— she liad not asked Barry for any after she had learned how em barrassed he was tor actual cash. If she went away, it was al most a certainty that she would never see Barry again. He would lot it kill him before he gave in. She shivered under her pro tecting coat and went back into the house. At the Perch. Martha, engaged for the purpo.se, waited on the whims of Barry’s women guests with suspicious eyes and an un compromising jaw. “It ain’t respectable,” she said crossly to Petry, "havin’ those fancy lookin’ women here, al most the minute Miss Anne’s gone.” “They sure was fixed up for dinner," he admitted. •Martha, fiercely pursuing her own train of thought, paid not the slightest attention to him. “All this talk about letters! You needn’t tell me Miss Anne ever invited her up here. And him takin’ it all in like a ninny! Oh well. T suppose men ’.an’t help bein' simpletons.” Martha slammed her iron down wrathfiilly. Cleo had tossed her several frocks to pre.ss, and Mar tha was doing it with Indignant efficiency. IcMB an edge Ottt of bta voice. But he could not ‘ let anybody from Granlelgb get tlyrough to that Isolated little valley and find Nancy drudging throngh the days in a shabby, old ranch house, bleakly alone. Cleo’s eyes were shining. Now she know that Nancy was there “Oh, all right. Lead on and follow!’’ When they returned th^y still had the plac© to themselves. Cleo came close to him, her fingers resting lightly on r his arm. ^ "Barry, I was awfully stupid about Trail’s End. I just didn’t think.’’ 'The guarded look came again. /‘I’m afraid I don’t get the Idea.” “Oh, it’s all right—I didn’t realize that it iplght be—hard for you to go there. Of course I’d heard things, but—is it really as bad as that?” He wondered how the devil things could have got out that fast, and why people couldn't be allowed to keep their own trou bles decently to themselves. “It’s pretty bad,” he admitted jerkily. “I’d rather not talk about It, ff ycu don’t mind.” “Of course we won’t. But I just wanted you to know how badly I feel about it.” The coaxing fingers moved softly and then slid away. A dry cough sounded behind them. The Gages had returned and must have come in through the back way. Gage looked at them with his blunt stare, grunted a greet ing and addressed himself to Barry. Cleo decided that she loathed John Gage. Cleo was fully aware of Mar tha Larrabee’s antipathy. “Disagreeable old thing,” she thought as she caught sight of Martha’s ample form in the dist ance. “I believe she knows where Nancy is. ... I wish I knew the way to that Trail’s End place of hers.’’ For the present she had to be content to wail. John Gage had come here on business. On the very night ot their arrival Barry had made bis worried apologies t to her, and the next morning he and Gage had started off early on horseback. Already Cleo was bored to suf focation. All day long with Paula Gage, and not a man in sight to make life endurable for either of them, except a Chinese cook and j a leathery old man called Petry. To be sure, he had stopped bis work and taken her for a ride after lunch, but In spite of her pointed suggestions they had gone nowhere near Trail’s End. Shortly after dinner Gage had unceremoniously claimed Barry’s attenjtlon, and the two were sitting at the far end of the room, talking iHJring things. Cleo went outside to find Paula Gage. Paula was wandering aim lessly up and down the long ve randa. The next morning Petry drove Gage over to the county seat to do some long distance telephon ing. Paula' went with him, and Barry was free to devote at least part of his day to Cleo. “How about a ride?” he sug-| gested, and Cleo agreed prompt ly. She looked particularly en gaging in riding clothes, and she knew It. Barry’s sober face brightened as she ran down the steps to join him. He helped her up, and she found herself mounted on a glistening little bay. “Where are you going to take me, Barry?’’ "Anywhere you want to go,” he answered unguardedly. “I’d love to see Nancy’s little ranch. Tkaii’s End, Isn’'t It? Let’s go there.” “I’m sorry. I’m afraid we can’t do that. It’8--4i bad trail.” calmly. Shadows were lengthening when Anne heard the sound of a car, coming in from the desert side. That would be dear old Boone. She went over to a win dow and looked out. It was not the big grey car. This was black, or had been, and it was much smaller and a little battered, and the driver was not Petry. The door flashed open. Anne stood there. “Jim!” she said breathlessly. "What are you doing here?' “Thanks for the enthusiastic welcome. I’ll come In, If you don’t mind.” His grin was mock ing, but he gave her a sharp glance as he sauntered past her. "What’s the matter? Sick?’’ “No, I’m all right. Why have you come here?’’ “Just dropped in to make call.’’ He was looking deliberately around him. “No sign of the haughty hus band. Are domestic relations still strained, or are you Just hiding out until company goes home?” “I’ve left. It’s over, everything is over, and you should be the last to ask why.’’ Kennedy made a brief sound like a muted whistle. "Took it hard, didn’t he?’’ He frowned and moved his should ers irritably. “Keep your chin up, and he’ll come back.” Anne shook her head. It was not a subject she could discuss with Jim. “How did you know I was here?” Kennedy dropped into a chair and settled himself comfortably. “How did I knbw? Ask me a hard one, Nancy. I knew where you’d started for, and that you bad a little ranch somewhere near here, and who was visiting up at the big place. It was easy. I’ve a nice little hand-made map ot the roads here,’’ he added' iCraglfllt hiavUy. and Barry Duane had left early- Late li^the afternoon Cleo had Invit ed herself to accompany Petry on a hurried run into Marston. Paula could spare Cleo, hut she hated this place where she had to look all day at water, hiding rooks and slimy things beneath Its (Surface calm. She hated water. She—saw things In It. ; Restlessly she went outside. Down through the trees the lake gllmmeThd darkly. Where the trees came, close it was dark. She hatpd it, but it dragged at her. ^ Half-way down the slope she stopped. jU c ' J Something was moving down there, hurrying toward her. It. became a figure, waveriniT strangely,^all light and pale ex cept for wide dark eyes and a little tumbled mop of dark curls framing a pallid face. | “Paula? Paula!” It was mut ed and faint, the whispering echo of a voice that had died. Paula shrank back, shuddering. “Don’t! Oh, don’t!”' ' “Paula! Please! It’s Nancy! . . . Paula!” Again that low cry came, the ghost of a voice, call ing to her. Pale hands beckoned, reaching out to drag her unwil ling body down there, to black, shining water, greedy and cold. For another moment of gasping' terror she endured It, and then ■her frantic shrieks- came. "Oh, no, no! I can’t come. Nancy, I can’t! I’ll tell! Pll make It right .for you. I didn’t mean It —: didn’t!” On the upper road walking horses thudded Into a run. Some distance back along the road to Marston, Petry straightened up from his inspection of the ditch ed wreckage of an old black car, listened once more for that thin sound of terror and jumped tor his wheel. Nearer to the house Jim Kennedy, five minutes too late, dodged back among the trees and cursed under his ’ breath.
