The back door of the kitchen sud denly-opened and Revelry Bourne eame In from the radio station. .His gay buckskin costume accentuated the gravity of his face; his eyes were almost black with some sup pressed emotion. He strode directly toward Van Cleve, who came ques tioningly to his feet. But after one look at.the river captain's face, the doctor sank again into hit chair and ' dropped his dark head on the up turned palm. of his uninjured hand. "I know," .he said in a muffled tone. "Ne plane available." -. .. . "That's not the , trouble.

It's the only way to ret you down there in time." "No, old fellow. I appreciate your courage, but I cant let-you take such chances for me." Nevertheless Van Cleve slowly stood up, hope dawninr in hia dark eyes. Bourne spoke calmly: "I've been taking1 chances on the river ever since I was old enough to handle steering wheel. Van." Be spoke quietly. "Ill take you down to night. Will you rot" For a moment van deve con sidered the lean, blond face en level with his own, "By God, Rev.' he answered hoarsely, "I believe you can make it, TO ro." - The two men went into the living room -to announce their departure. Denny followed and made herself inconspicuous against the window hanrinrs, i ; ' The party of hilarious hunters broke eft to greet the doctor and were noisily demanding; his "bear story" when the outer door opened. Harp and Boom came In, their - tanned faces set and serious, Harp reported, "Ship's ready. Captain. Crew a e landing- by." "Whafa this? Wbafa this?" de 'manded the Colonel. "Not leaving to-night, are you. Captain? I under stood" "Sorry, gentlemen. - Van Gere Injury makes it necessary for him to reach a doctor to-night, I want - you all to make yourselves at home here for a few days.

Charge of the Light Brigade and all that sort of thing. Well stand by, sir I We insist on going with you I" . - f Bourne's further protests were lost in the chanting of the capering hunters. In the end he threw up both hands. : "All right, you darned fools. Come along-. But it's at your own risk. It's nearly eleven. I cast off in half an hour." , - - ' The men stampeded upstairs- to ret their belongings together. - - Denny stood alone in the living room. She had beea so certain of caving River House in the morning that now, contemplating; the week that must elapse before the JactL or some -other beet, returned, she was beset by a sense of let-down. Already, she felt the loMliness ef those who are left behind. Aa she swung the door wide aad stepped out onto the terrace for a breath of fresh air, the sharp re ports ox starting engines came .up through the darkness. The sound was like a summons to adventure. Aa Denny stood there, the whisper of the Stikine came seeping into nr consciousness through every channel of sense and nerve; weav ing again that spell which seemed to have in it a sort of ruidance. Time is passing. life is passing. Live intensely while you may." To-night, she thonsrht, every soul aboard the Maid would live In tensely on that wild Journey to the coast, And she would be lost in sleep at River House. -. . .

Her raze went back to the Stl kine'a mesmerising flow; and after a moment she had another ef those unaccountable blank spaces of mind when the stream of her identity seemed to merge and mingle with the fast; smooth current of that other stream sweeping dimly urougn tne dark. When the moment nAA alia knew she had surrendered to some mysterious sense ef direction. She knew she was going- to run the Sti kine to-night with Captain Revelry sourne. - .;. .,.-.-...., , . She turned te run hack lata the house just aa the captain came out on to toe terrace, dressed to his ordi nary clothes. "Whoa, there I" he said, laughing and advancing? with wide-etretehed arms. "At least whoa long enough for me to tell you good by." Bis words were light but she remembered he had never before sought her to say goodly. "It isnt necessary. Captain!" she answered raily. "I'm going with you. Harp will get my things aboard quickly and" "Nothing- doing, young lady!

"Yon realize the risk, Denny 1" . She nodded.: ' "And still you're willing to take a chance with me?" Of course." With an effort at lightness she added, 'I'm like the ColoneL I think it a sporting- way to end my Northern holiday.

Aboard' the Maid. Denny was counting her bags piled on the floor of Bourne's cabin back of the pilot-. bouse.
