Mdt, by In Wright Itaasna We climbed to th top ot the bill, Pylvla and t and sat dowtw-th tn the queen's chair and I on a amgH rock at her feet The queen's chair, so named by Sylvia, la great wblt rock natu rally carved Into a very fair resem blance of a throne. Sylvia, her bead set proudly on her white, full neck. makes a fitting queen. Sylvia's black fringed, purple eyes were quiet: her little month had pen sive curve; even her dimpled chin was not piquant as at some times nor defiant as at others. Sylvia Is esaea tlally a creature ot moods, and ber old guardian would not have her oth erwise. A man only yesterday was telling m the beatitudes of bis wife tone. "She Is always the same," be bab bled. "One always knows bow be will find ber. A woman like that Is a treasure bard to get" I thought of Sylvia and smiled. It's because I never know bow I am to find ber that she charms me. Some times she Is a gay little butterfly, flit ting from one flower of speech to an other; sometimes she Is grave as nun, I have learned, though, not to believe too much In Sylvia when she la grave. Sometimes the wildest of crimson moods originates tn a drab one. "What do you see, 8ylvlar 1 asked, looking up st the dreamy face. "The Sacramento river, forty mile away," ahe answered. "It looks like a white thread with a knot tied In It. I auppose the knot Is a steamboat" 1 suppose tt Is," I said absently. "Do you realise that there are only five days mors." "Only Ave days," she assented. bringing ber gate back to me, I thought But not "Ob! The mansanlta is In bloom. Pleas bring me a piece." I obeyed aa on barks to bis queen, but I remonstrated as one reproves chad. "It is a matter of bait a million dol lars, Bylvia." She sighed. "Money Isn't every thing," she said tritely. She laid th "ISN'T THXBI SOUS OTHXa WATT pink blossom in ber lap and added: "But money is very handy after all. isn't It guard le? Tell me about It again." 80, as on repeats a nursery rhyme to the child who knows It but who delights In Its recital, I told 'If again to Sylvia. "Tour mother died at your birth, your father a month later, leaving you no relative In the world but me. An eccentric old man adopted you be cause he had once loved your mother, and he died when you were ten years old." And you were thirty-five, " Inter posed Sylvia. "That doesn't come Into the story," frowned. "This man appointed me your guardian and left a will by which his fortune becomes yours M you ars married on th 15th day of March, 1904." "My twentieth birthday," murmured Sylvia. If you are not married, th money goes"- To the dogs," laughed Sylvia. I smiled. "To found a hospital for th cur and maintenance of Infirm eanlnes, and there are only five mori days." "You left out something," sbs said, taking up the flower again. "Tot muat approve the marriage, nd you art a very, vary distant relative." "So distant that tbe relationship wouldn't count if I mean that even this remote tie of blood makes me take great interest in your getting your fortune. Haven't you chosen yetr 1 "I've bad six offers." she said frank ly, "and refused three. There's now left Tom and George and Joe," she counted on ber slender fingers. "Tom and George and Joe! I can't marry Tom, gnardle. He tells such unreason able stories. Why, be told me Inst night that out in Iowa or somewhere there was a cyclone which blew, straws from strawstack right through standlne trees." I grinned. "But George snd Jo don't exagger at." 'George Is too well womanish. V came to call on Kate the other dity when I was there. She wns buay Mrlti , aer piece work that ahe tlelbrhta In !

"Jo Is a dear, but I am not good enough to be a ministers wife." Nonsense! You're too good for any man on earth," I an Id aharpty. Sylvia smiled down upon me. When Sylvia amilea with her purple eyea as well aa her red mouth It makes on wish he were not getting gray over th temples. "Do you wish me to marry any of them, guardlr Something tlichtened In my throat but I spoke calmly, very calmly. "Of counte your old guardian doesn't want to lose you, but be la anxloua for you to get your fortune,' and the tlme r colleges at 144 Clay at, San Fran la very soon," . claoo; special Inducements this month; Isn't there some other way? Don't lawyers sometimes make loopholes or something r "They sometimes do," I answered "But they can't In thla caa. It's tb dogs or a husband, Sylvia, In five more days." Her eyes were looking forty miles away again, and my eyea were look tng at Sylvia. The faintest line of col or ahowed In ber rouuded cheek; It touched ber dimpled chtn and crept np to the broom curl above ber little ear. Sylvia turned to ms wltb th shyest of lights In ber pansy eye. "There's another," she faltered, Ab! I heard a ruttltns umler the mansanlta hush.

She pointed the manzanlta blossoms toward the Sacramento river, forty miles sway. "See, dear. The sun atrlkes the rlv er and It looks like a band of gold.
