' J. 1-U.Um Chptr ( J.1 MORSE'S MASTERPIECE 'ANNE lifted the glasses and " leveled them t tho great tri angular basin between two solid wedges of mountain rock, vhlck a third slowly rearing wall of ce ment and stone was making Into a giant reservoir. Orer the basin, some quarter ot a mile away, bung a complicated network ot scaffolding, on which Innumerable mannikins clung clung and worked. Up and down the mountainside, crawled Innumer able others, a ceaseless, harried ant-column, carting up material, A great concrete wall was rising toward the sky to defy river waters. passing It to the Insects on the scaffolding, then hurrying away for more. "The people around here, the na tives, you huoiv," Douglas ex plained, "are dead against the res ervoir project. They have their own little private ditches which the big reservoir will drain off. They will he forced to pay for water rlshis which they had before for 'nothing, nnd naturally they're fighting the thing tooth and nail. There's even been talk of." "How very stupid,'' Anne com mented absently, her altentlon was concentrated on the scene of tre mendous, purposeful activity through the glasses, "when you consider how many more people wiil benefit and how much better It will be for everybody In the long run to have Ibis whole sec tion developed " Dosg'as shrugged. "The average hvaeaa tnicg doesn't see things In tie rMzx run'." Asa tocsted the glasses on the rl:ag:g figures on the scaffolding. :dic. she leaned eagerly for ward. Far 03t on the scaffolding, beading over some newly poured rmat, with the pail still In his hsd, s'.ood her acquaintance ot the etoantain spring. While she watched him Intently, b straightened up. and moved on to another part of the scaffolding. Among ail the other husky work men, there was no mistaking his frame and stature. VI;b a barely audible gasp, she dropped the glasses, then on sec ond thought quickly found the focus again and Indicated that Douglas was to look. "Who Is be?" she aked with as much casualness anil Indifference as she could command. Thoro was a curious, qulitlrai stnllo In the attorney's eyes a he put down the glasses. "Why, he's a sort of hermit who lives In a hut up here . In the mountains some where, I believe " A hermit! Anne smiled too and glanced down Involuntarily at the hand ho land kissed. If the knew anything ntmut men, those had been no hermit'- lips. "Incldenlnl!y,""iimi:lns went on In a bantering tone, "he's tho to unpopular man In the Sierras!" NEW YEAR PARTIES WILLIAMS CKKEK.

Mr. and Mrs. Jtdin I-rtlekon rn- "Oh Anne would hare liked to pursue the subject further, but she had so opportunity. Monte and Bretton were approaching. At close range. Bretton, f the chief engineer, bad a swart, well weathered face, keenly blue eyes and a mouth which any man should have known belter than to tamper with. He made some parting re mark to Morse, took off his bat to Anne, and started off down the trail which-led to the construction camp. "I think we'd better be going," Morse observed, drawing out his watch." There'a another little mat ter I want to attend to on the way home." Ills confidential aid gave blin a quick. Inquiring glance, and be nodded briefly. "We're not going to build any bridge," be said. "Bret ton may a well understand that first as last." Douglas shrugged up bis shoul ders and went on ahead down the narrow trail toward the automobile. Anne, who was walking with Morse, broke a somewhat prolonged silence. "I wonder what it would be like to lire In a but In the mountains like the er hermit Mr. Douglas was telilng me about?" "What hermit?" her companion inquired. The man in front turned. "Oh, 1 was just making a little joke, he explained. "I almost think I should like It," Anne went on thoughtfully, "the hut in the mountains, 1 mean." "Doubtless for 21 hours!' Doug las remarked sagely, an lie quick ened tip his pace a lit T lo and swung around the next bend In the trail a half-dozen feet ahead of the others. "So " Morse said reflectively, his eyes on Anne, "a hut In the mountains is most emphatically not the proper frame for you. For some women It might be at) right that or a ranch lioue on the plains even a tenement on the Kast side: these are the settings best fitted to bring out their particular quality. But for you- " She looked up curiouslj "Tor me what kind of frame?" Kor you a frame worthy of the subject, a frame of gold, a back ground of great rooms and spacious corridors elegance, luxury, har mony. That Is the only background suited to you "Hum-m, a lady In a frame." Anne murmured whimsically. "I don't beilere 1 should like it. I would be always wanting to stop out Into some other frame or some other background that maybe did n't milt me at all." "Oh. no, you wouldn't. Morse anred her. "not if the frame were rich enough." She shook her head, tugged mock suffocatingly at her collar. "Any. way, It sounds stuffy. I dont like It!" "What's all this talk about frames?" Douglas asked as they stepped Into the car. "You haven't been buying a new picture, have you, Morse? I thought you had al ready sufficiently denuded Kuropel" "No. I haren't." his employer an swered, shrewd, half bantering, half serious ayes on Anne, who had turned pway her face and left only the tip of a small scarlet ear for his Irfpec'.Ion. "but I'm thinking of btiylnrr on a masterpiece. I rather think It will be the gem of my coi'.ectlon!" fCopir"fft.
