She was making this abhorrent trip In order that her brother might thrive in his physical well being as well ns In bis art. He bad recently determined on being an illustrator of wild animal books. "I'm going to study them at first hand," he repeated often, "the way Melborn Foster has done. An 1, besides. I want to illustrate father's journal." This Journal, the record of a trip Into th, west made by I'hlllp Ru pert before his marriage, had come to be the most powerful influence in the lad's life. It was a worn little red book in which the father bad written the daily happenings and Impress! >ns C* his trip, and its discovery by Louis la a box of old papers bad quite trans formed his life. It bad made him an American, filling hint with a longing for the "Hesperian mountains," as the father called the romantic land he had seen but once, but whose splendor lived with hint throughout the remain der of his short life. As they sat at the table In the dining car Ann again listened Indulgently to her brother's plans, and permitted him to order the dinner and assume all the manners of a grown man. honestly try ing to conceal her own weariness of spirit, sincerely regretful of her bitter words on the ferry. Louis was not weary. He eyed every man who came In, avid to discover some western trait, some outward sign of Inward difference between himself and bls companions, but could not. , They were all quite commonplace busi ness men, well dressed, close clipped and urbane of manner. Some of them were evidently salesmen g ng over to Philadelphia cr out to Chicago, and they all ate lor.g and with every evi dence of enjoyment. Some of tliC'wo- men were yi.v.ng and pretty -stu len's returning to the west for their summer vacations. Once more In the privacy of her state room and looking out at the landscape reeling past, Ann sank back In her seat wholly dismayed. "What In the world can I do out there?” she ask<*il herself most poignantly. “Of course they don't play golf or tennis, and I can't ride, and. besides, whom could I play with? Jeannette Is not a bit athletic." And again the small round of her Interests —she had no gayeties—wns borne in upon her. "I shall die of Inactivity.” Ixiuls excused himself quite formally and went back Into the smoking com partment to sit with the men, while Ann, left alone, gave herself up to a close, half Ironic study of the absurdity of her position.

To them It was only a gloomy, clangorous shed fitted with long strings of railway coaches all marked with strange Barnes—names which meant little to ber. bût which ex cited Louis almost to tears. "Sew," be cried, "there is a car from Oreg, si and one from Wyoming!" The people who filled the coaches were not tnarke<lly dittercut at first glance from those she had been traveling with, but Louis, more keenly discerning, began to dis tinguish types at once, and when one or two llg uien came In wearing wide hats and chin beards lie trembled with joy. "There are some cattlemen—I'm sure of it,” be whispered hoarsely.

He commenced to count the hours till be might be aide to discern Mogalyon, the great peak of the Ram part range, whose fame is worldwide. Ann experienced lier first décidai flush of interest as the swinging, reeling rush of the train brought the great peak into view, a dim, blue dome against the western skv. At last. Just as the red was piling out of the sky. the train swung to the left on Its southerly course, and the whole Rampart range began to stretch and wind away to northward and south ward. while between the plain and the foothills rolled a tawny sea of sod, deeply marked with ravines and dot ted with pine clad buttes. The rang" grew dimmer ns they gazed, nisi at last even Louis was content to sink back In bls seat and wait. "It isn’t a bit as I expected It to be." he said, “but It Is glorious. That pur ple green was wonderful. I'm going to try to get that some time. It Isn't ns precipitous as the Alps, but It's superb just the same, and Just think how r uch wilder It was when father came here!” “I'm glad you were not disappointed. 1 boy,” she replied. laying her l and on his shoulder and caressing his cheek, "but you nwd rest. You're seeing too much.” The train wns now winding down to- 1 ward Valley Spring«, an I :>■ !y the ' splendid sky line of the rang? could be ‘ distinguished as the lights of the town began to sparkle out of the obscure murk. The porter, with brush in hand, came do wn the aisle. “This is Valley Springs, miss.” ( They were met at the car door by a *blg. smiling man In ntodlsh summer dress, while behind him stood a pale, sweet faced woman In blue. "Hello, Don!" shouted Louis. "Hello, laddie! How do you da Ann?" replied Barneit. and as Ann and her cousin e- "-need the big msn 'caught Louis l y the han!.' "How's your muscle, my boy?

Indeed, the Bar netts lived quite as they would have ' done In Beahrigbt or Lenox. They bad a dozen horses, a suitable assortment of vehicles, saddles and bridles and were enthusiasts concerning poio and golf. Their neighbors an 1 friends were unfailingly ei-statlc in praise of the cli mate and the views and æemed lllog- lcally anxious to placate the jirejudices of this haughty, pale faced, scarlet lipped young girl, who looked with calm eyes u;K>n the great peak gloom ing to the westward.

Ann was puzzled and a bit bored by their Insistence on winning her admi ration of the mountains and, being nat urally perverse, withheld the expres sions of pleasure she might otherwise have uttered, for she was profoundly moved by what she saw. •T never did understand that girl." said Donnelly Barnett to bls wife one night after a drive into the great Bear canyon. “She has everything to make her happy, and yet she g about tor- uld as an oyster.
