Goodchild Co., 266 King St. West, Toronto. (Continued) CHAPTER V. Treachery Overjoyed at the prospect of a peaceful solution of the problem which confronted him, Wade walked rapidly toward the hotel, happy, too, in the thought of meeting Helen Rex- hil}. , Whether he loved her with the single-hearted devotion which a man should feel toward his future wife, he Was not sure; but he was confident that he cid not love any one else. Thé idea of loye in connection with Doro- thy had never occurred to him; she was his good friend, nothing more. To Helen, belonged the romance of his life, fostered in other years by the distinct preference she had shown for him. At one time, they had been re- ported engaged, and although the word had never actually passed be- tween them, many things more signifi- cant than speech had contributed to the warm regard which they felt for wach other. Beneath Helen’s reput- ed coldness of heart lay intense feel- ing, and on numerous occasions she had verged on unwomanliness in bar ing her moods to Wade, in a way that many other men would have been quicker to fathom, and perhaps to take advantage of, than he had been. Now, the knowledge that she w close at hand, and that he might her at any moment, caused his heart to beat rapidly. If to others she had been cool, to him she had been ardent, and this warmth had been the one thing needful to make her physically captivating. Only when some vital impends a young man likely to distinguish between the impulses of his body and the cravings of his soul, and no such vital exigency had as yet appeared in Wade hfe. He won- dered if she was as beautiful as ever, and began to reproach himself for Jack of ardor in his recent letters to her; lest-he should now be’ repaid in kind. He wanted to be received upon the old, delicious footin ith her in his arms, and her lips trembling be- neath his. There were dozens of men in Wa ington and New York who would al- most have bartered: their souls for such privilege, and Gordon Wade need not be decried for his moment of 7 sionate yearning. We was enough of a man to put the thought le, pend- ing his interview with the Senator, which was his first purpose. He felt sure that if Senator Rexhill could be moved to interest in Crawling Water affairs, his influence would be potent enough to secure redress for the cat- tle men, and Wade meant to pull every string that could bear upon so happy a result. He was glad that Mrs. Rexhill had not made the jour- ney, for he was conscious of her hos- Ulity to him, and he felt that h chances of moving her husband were better without her. When he inquired at the hotel, he was told that the Rexhills were In, and he presently found himself shak- ing hands with the, Senator, who greeted him with effusive warmth. “Helen is changing her, gown and will be in shortly,” the big man ex- claimed. “I’m mighty glad to see you, Gordon. Only this morning we were talking of looking you up. How are you? Sit down, my boy, sit Wade began, after they ed commonplaces for a few moments. “Glad as I am to see you, on my own account, I am more than glad in behalf of my friends, who have not yet had the pleasure of meet- ing you. Your arrival in Crawling Water could not possibly have been more opportune. You have come just in time to save us, most likely, from an internecine strife which might have Tuined us all. I was more glad thaa I can tell you to learn that you were here.” “Indeed, Gordon? I—I am muct interested. Perhaps, you will Z While Wade succinctly sketched | the situation, the Senator nery y | toyed with his eye-glasses, now and then lifting his double chin from the , confinement of his collar, only to let | the mass of flesh settle again into inertness. He thought rapidly, Mor an had not divulged the fact that he, the Senator, was concerned in the ! Crawling Water enterprise. Certain- ; ly, Moran had done very well in that, ‘and Rexhill almost wished now that he had been less precipitate in coming to Crawling Water. If he had stayed Tn the East, his complicity in the af- fair might possibly have been conceal- ed to the very end. He has under cover; but now that he was on the ground he decided tliat he had bet- ter be open and above board, in so far | at least as he could be so. It would | prove awkward in the event of sub- sequent investigation, if he should be | made to appear in the guise of a de- | liberate conspirator. So, pr ntly, as Wade neared the jend of his resume of the situation, Rexhill permitted an oleaginous smile | to oversp d his counte the last, he eyen chuck! - “It’s really a bit 5 no, not what you have said, my | but what I am about to s to you.

There ‘has alw been a tacit agreement ‘that sheep should not be grazed here because sheep and cattle can’t live on | the same range in large numbers. Un- til Moran came here, we had no trouble whatever—the sheep ranchers , kept to their own side of the moun- tains and. we cattle men kept t6 ours. Since Moran has arvived, however, the sheep have crossed the Divide in thou- sands, until the entire valley is being overrun with them. “Only this morning, Moran admitted to me that the sheep men are acting with his authority and backing. Sen- ator Rexhill, this is wrong, and your agent, or manag is making a big mistake. Since you are the prime mover in this matter, your. arrivals eyen more opportune than I at first thought, because you have the power to immediately correct your hired man's mistake. So far as we cattle ranchers can learn, Moran is bringing sheep in here with the deliberate in- tention of starving us out of our homes, He seems to want our ranze and he—I’ll not say you—thinks that s the cheapest way to ssession. He'll find it. the fvest in the end.

We're not look- ing for trouble. Certainly, you are right to object to sheep being run on your leased pasture. I'll look into it right uy and see what can be done.” “Thank you.” Wade was much re- lieved and he showed it. “I felt s' that an appeal to your sense of play would not frui mighty glad you a “Gordon!” a softly behind him. “Helen!” He sprang to his and turned to setze her hands. Those who admired HWelen Rexhill hington soclal functions never her look more lovely than she did at this moment of meeting with Wade, for the reason that all the skill of the costumer could not beaut her so much the radiance of love now in her face: The dress she wore was fay from inexpensive, but it w cut with the art which conceals art, and to Wade it appeared simple. Yet his first sensation was one of acute disappointment, which he strove rather ineffectually, to conceal. Doubt less, this v because his recollection of her had soared beyond the bounds of human perfection But the gown, which she had thosen with so keen a wish to impress liim, reminded him imple frocks which Dorothy and in Helen Rexhill’s was not the same sweet hill commented, ‘Moran > exclaimed feet as face there U. 1457 sound” simplicity of expression which distin-{ guished her rival, Flaming love was there, to transform her from the sug- gestion of a lily to that of a pome granate; but it was the love that de- mands and deyours, rather than the constant affection which, in giving all, seeks nothing but the privilege of loy- ing in return, Without actually ana- lyzing the impresison which Helen made upon him, Wade felt something of the truth of this, and was disap pointed in the realization of his dream of her, Materially she was too per- fect, too exotic, for the setting of Crawling Water. “Why, you look just the same," she happily exclaimed. “And 1?
