Keith, a young Saa Francisco socialite, most visit his banting lodge, River House, oo the Stikine River, in Tarnigan, Canada, before disposing of it Lar ry Keith, an outfitter for big game hunters, loved the place and bad Lived there alone for years because bis selfish, pampered wife, Sylvia, refused to spend even one month a year there.-When he would not give it up, she divorced him and remar ried. Aboard Captain Revelry Bourne's Stikine Mud enroute to Tarnigan, Denny meets a varied lot of individuals enxonte to River House for the hunting season. Among them are Dr. Pool Van Cleve.who is suffering from a nerv ous breakdown; Rio Ckrew, wealthy divorcee: Derek Haskell, Larry's half-breed guide, with whom Rio is enamoured, and Harp MacFarlane, foreman of River House. Harp had spoken about the treachery of the Stikine, praising Bourne's skill as a navigator, saying be was swift to see and lightning to act. Shortly after passing the Canadian border, the Miid ties op on the bank for the night All on board go ashore to dance. From her stateroom door, Denny overhears Bourne talking with Jack Page, owner of ths Talu Wind, anchored a short distance away. Page had broken ' an agreement between bis father and Bourne's to stay away from . the Stikine River as there was only business enough for one boat Bourne offers to buy Page oat or gamble for the rights on the river, but Page refuses. "It s war then?1 asks Bourne. : "Business, that's all." Page replies. Denny was expecting some ' excitement but Bourne placed his hand on Page's shoulder, saying, "Let her ride as she looks. Come along and join our party.". Denny felt contempt foe. Bourne for submitting to Page and Indignation against the latter. She went ashore so intent on the sit nation that she did not see Van Cleve and collided with him. With. . out a word he gathers her in his arras, kisses her and stalks off, Denny is outraged but calms down shortly. At the party, Page imme diately attaches himself to Denny and he too kisses her. She is furi ous. When Denny dances with Bourne she Is keenly aware of his proximity. It was. a disturbing sensation. Later, on the bank, un der the spell of the romantic set ting, Denny draws Bourne to her and kisses him. Then, when he re sponds, she repulses jiim. Bourne apologises but warns: "In this . . country ... no girl , dares do what .yon did tomght-anless , . .". . Ha tniliated, Denny flees to her state ' room, ' vowing to avoid Bourne thereafter. ' . . CHAPTER XII ' Denny was looking in the mirror, smoothing back her tumbled hair, when she noticed two envelopes Dropped on on the shelf just be neath. They bore her name in un familiar handwriting. Some - one must have placed them there while . she was talking to Captain Bourne in the grove. Puzzled, she tore the first ene open and read the enclo- . sure. " . ., My dear liiss Keith: This Is an apology for my stro cious conduct to-night I came upon you suddenly when I was filled with bitterness and took it out on yon.

She had not dreamed that men could be like that frightening and repellent and fas cinating, all at the same time. Yet, during that first moment in .his arms,' she had not been frightened.

If she sold her fath ers business to Page, she would be placing in his hands the winninv card in the game these two rivermen were going to play.

"You're the first passenger op this morning." She swung about to see Revelry Bourne, freshly shaved and very blond loo kin e in a thin white tnrtl necked sweater and gray slacks. He did not wait for ber reply but turned toward the shoreline, flung out his arms, and took a deep, long breath. , "Just ' move back them thar mounting-, Lawdl" he exclaimed, with boyish exuberance. "Move 'em back, I say, and give me room to spread - ma wings! : Gee,' ' Miss Keith " Be swung back to face her again, his face radiant with health and youth. "Doesnt it make you feel just like that?

This, certainly, was no way to live up to her determination to avoid the man. Oh, well," she decided. 111 go up there and show him that I can play this casual game of forgetful ness as well as he." She looked In the mirror at her spirited face, meeting the long lashed green eyes that gazed back at her. "But understand, you're not forgetting r she admonished her self. "When you reach Tarnigan yon are going to show Captain Revelry Bourne what it means to off end the mistress of River House." o Shortlv after hmeh th nnrua came running to Denny's stateroom with the news that the Maid" was nearing the Big Canyon. "Come alone" invited Miss Hale. "Wa'ra going up to the wheel-house to watch tne captain uuce ner tnrougn." On tha vs thev mt Rin C!t and took her with them. When they reached the sun deck where groups of men stood about Denny sensed that subtle tenseness which per vades a boat about to pass through dangerous waters. An anticipatory thrill ran through her. - In the pilothouse Captain Bourne was leaning negligently in the open window, one hand on the wheel as he gazed ahead. Tongas , sat on the wall eat opposite him. "Hello, girls I" Bourne greeted them cheerfully, waving them to the settee. "Make yourselves comfort able." Shan, who had been a pilot on the Stikine for forty years, was pacing back and forth behind the captain, pausing every few minutes to peer over Bourne's shoulder. He was a short, sturdy, likable old savage. As the Afatd went on, Denny be came aware of the increasing roar and swiftness of the river. Shan, after one of his intent glances ahead, snddenlv dre r a fjiw1 pouch from his shirt pocket, selected someuung zrom it, ana with the air of one oerformins a rite, tossed It into the swirling stream. Miss Hale said in an undertone, "Shan .has just made his offering of tobacco to the Stikine river-gods for a safe passage through" She oroxe on excitedly.; "There it Is- the Big Canyon I" , Anead Denny saw a mountain of stone, apparently blocking the river. But as the Maid moved up toward it the solid rock seemed a anlit nf slowly slide apart, forming a gorge a nunarea teet high and no wider than a city street Through it rush ing at her, came the furious, con- strictea volume or tne stikine, comb iner to a center ereat that amn from side to side, hitting the walls in explosions of spray. White water I Denny's heartbeats quickened. Was it possible to take a boat up against that awful cur rent? Her questioning gaze sought Bourne's figure silhouetted against the front windows of the pilothouse; He was cool, quiet; but about him was the air of inner tenseness seen In a sprinter poised on the line awaiting the starter's signal. With a deepening roar of pro pellers, the Maid struck the mouth of the Canyon and paused, stagger ing under the battering impact of the current Then, with a violent shudder, she forged slowly ahead again, thing of life, straining, groaning, belching vapor from either side. ? But when the If aid was irrevoca bly into the wild glory of the Can yon, a strange thing happened. Magically, Denny's fear vanished, leaving her more keenly alive than she had ever been in her life before. Alive and thrilling to the tremend ous power, the unleashed splendor of thousands of tons of water leap ing, hollowing, bending in polished velocity over boulders, and shaking the air with exultant bombilation. Miss Hale's frantic clutch broke the : spell ."What's that?" she gasped, pointing up the narrow sorge.
