of tho makeshift road to como to a

Auiiu seated Hi Iho car. 11c
mounted tho rickety steps nod
paused a moment on tho threshold
us he gazed in through tho open
door.
Ho took In tho plain furnishings,
the desk nnd drawing table, covered
with blueprints, and (ho small eafe.
Ills eye finally settted on the tall
man who Bat at the dosk, nppnr
cntly unmindful of his presence.
He was literally covered from head

Alorso (ldvniiccd a step Into the
loom. "This Is Mr. er Olenn'"
lie naked as Scolt tilenii glanced up.
He nodded, und rose. "Is tlioro
anything I can do for you?"
Ills caller did not answer at
once, but took out n card nnd
handed It to him. (ilcnn looked
down at It and motioned to a cliuir.
Will you sit down. Mr. ." he
pnused to 'consult tho card again,
"Morse?"
Morso took the chair Indicated
and drew It a little closer to the
one at the desk. "My business H
ot a distinctly private nature," he
observed with a suggestive glance
at the man who stood at Iho win
dow. tilciiu turned to thu assistant, a
young onglnecr Just out of college
and pardonably susceptible, nnd
smiled a little as he noted tho lude
Ktar ot his attention tho lady In
tho car. Tho youth started when
Ulenn spoko to him but wont out,
closing thu door behind him.
From the muddle ot drawings,
Ijluo prints and papers, (ilonu mi
earthed a box of cignra. Ills caller
accepted one, bit oh tho cud and
lighted it.
"Tho most important buslnosi, ns
you know, Mr. er ."
"rilenn," the younger man added.
Morso ' nodded. "Kxaclly. The
most important business, as 1 was
about to say. is that which reiiilirot,
t lio least publicity. Ill spllu of the
tuus of propaganda and the bray
ing ot newspapers and ruformors,
all of the real business ot the
world, governmental and otherwise.
Is carried on behind closed doors."
(ilcnn aimed a puff of smoko at n
knot hole In the celling a few fed
obovo his liend, but mndo no com
ment as Morse continued. "To gel
down lo business as you know,
this proposed line of road is a pet
scheme of mine a hobby If ynu will
tho ilream of a lifetime. Railroad
men, oldlimers at tho game, say
It can't he hultl, but I hcllcvg It

desk. "As 1 said before, this line

big hands In u forceful. Impatient
Kcsture as of sweeping away ob
stacles. Tho younger man nodded, rose
and walked over lu the window
from which could bo seen the peat

Hps. This great irrigation project,
a river tunnelled through the moun
tains, hundreds of thousands of
acres of barren sagebrush desert
t ra n s for in ed 1 n to ga rd ens a n d
orchards und homes, represented
another "pet scheme," another
"dream ot a lifetime" perhaps
When ho turned back, he ?aw that
Morse was watching him intently.
Glenn made & gesture towards in
window which gavo on tho valley
and the mountain rango beyond.
"A bridge there will solve your
problem," ho said, "without length
ening your schedule appreciably."
Tho railroad magnate let himself
back la his chair, blew a lolsurely
ring ot smoke, then looked Btraight
nt Glenn. His siuila was full ot
meaning. "Men come cheaper thaa
bridges,' he countered frankly,
"I've decided to buy you Instead!"
There was a moment's silence.
Tho two men regarded each other
attentively, (llonn's faio whitened
a lltllo under the sunburn; his list
closed Involuntarily over the edgo
of the desk. But an Instant later,
with a slight, noncommittal shrug,
he seated himself ugain and lighted
a frebli cl,,nr.
"They say every man hns his
price," he admitted cnrolossly.
"Yes, nnd cvory woman too, for
that matter," Morso observed with
out literest.
The younger mnn glanced quickly
towurds the window to the woman
waiting In the automobile The
shrewd, weathered lines about his
mouth and eyes registered a half
contemptuous, half amused smile.
He had known all along who the
woman was, though he had not
looked at her before.
When ho looked hack at Morse,
he saw that tho financier w.ns
keenly nnnoyed nt tho connection
ho had mndo between, "F.vory
woman loo ," and his lovely
guest. Sho was lovely; nobody
could deny that.
Morse shifted his chair a llltlo, so
as to cut off tho view, toward the
window and leaned forward. "My
business Is this. I want you In the
employ of my corporation nt let us
say, doublo your present salary
and nt onoe."
"But I don't work on a sulary,"
Ulenn objected mildly, "nnd any
way, I'm not free to consider an
other offer for sonio mouths tn
come."
Tho other man shrugged. ".Mv
company Is never niggardly ahnu!
terms. Say we treble your prescnl
contract even quadruple II? My
policy has always been Unit no
price is too high to pay for any
thing yon know you want."
"That may he," Olenn agreed,
"hut unfortunately I am under con
tract to finish this job In a suited
time."
Morso leaned closer to him. "I
do not intend," ho said slowly and
emphatically, "that thu Irrigation
project shall ever be llulshcd."
