He stared intently Into tba coaia of Bre. and for several momenta tbera waa dead si lence in tba room aad without Even tba shrill complaining of tba wind bad ceased for awhile Then there cam a piercing scream from the room underneath, a terrlBed cry for help, and there waa the sound f running feet across a Boor. It waa the work of aa Instant for Hunting to apea bla doors aad reach the atalrraie.

At last aba lay in bis arms, limp and wblta as the rug that enveloped ber. "I'm all right now. thank you." aba aald in a soft voice. 8be released herself from Hunting's arms, and the white rug dropped to th floor, revealing tbe skirt of ber pretty gown scorched and charred. 8 he held out a band to ber rescuer with a charming smile. "This gentle man baa aaved my Ufa. Cousin Le ander. Will you and Cousin Sarah add your thanks to mine" "Bless me. child, it's Mr. Hunting from upstairs! 1 thought it was Pen low. Tour band.

Cousin Harab stopped screaming and gave another dry bandJnto Hunting's graxp and made a prtrn little speech. Paul Hunting and th golden haired girl looked at each other acrosa the width of the fireplace, and the forget menot blue eyea fell before bi be traying glance. With a sudden Im pulse be told ber tbe story of bla little nap and the whimsical dream he bad bad of the nodding mandarin wbo bad found speech. When be bad concluded aba laughed merrily.
