"yHE club Is about eight or nln
1 miles by water farther on down
the coast," Gtennalna went on, "at
Riviere dea Cascades, a aalmon river.
X millionaire from New York, named
Kennliton, bought It aome years ago
and built what be calls bis fishing
clnb there."
Something unpleasant flashed
through Colln'a mind,
"Kennlston?" he asked, "Waldrow
Kennlston?"
. "Tea," Cennalna replied "You
know him, then?"
"No," ha answered. "I've heard
the name, that's alL But you know
blm, of course."
She shook her bead.

Germalne waa abaorbed In the engine.
"I've never even seen him," she
aid. "They don't depend on the
canned goods on Madame Frenler'a
abelves, and they never come to Cap
a I'Orage. They hare aeveral big
power boata that ferry them back
and forth between the club and the
Gasps' coast where they can get fresh
upplles direct by rail even from
' New York.
. "I think Father waa called down
there once professionally. Anyway,
I'll aak him It he knows whether
there Is anyone by the name of
Laaarre there. And anyway,
whether he does or not, though there
1 -la no road overland, there would be
nothing to prevent you from going
down there by motorboat to Inquire
for yourself."'
"In that Jolly little one of yours
then, perhaps with you!"
"Oh I" she mocked demurely; and
then brightly: "Why, of course!
Why not aome afternoon? But I
must fly nowl Look) We're almost
In at the wharf. Those finishing
touches, you know."
He watched her aa ahe aped along
the deck and disappeared through
the aaloon entrance. Then his brows
knotted. So Waldrow Kennlston
owned a salmon river and had built
place down herel
It waa quite true, as he had just
told Germalne Tremblay, that he
did not know Kennlston personally,
but he knew, or least had heard,
quite a lot about the other not to
Kennlston'a credit. In the clubs
mostly. -
He searched back In his mind now,
mustering all he knew about Ken
nlston. Kennlston was still a young
man. He waa a plunger. Six or
aeven yeara ago he had Inherited a
fortune from bis father. In short
order he was on the verge of ruin.
Then three or four years ago he
had bloaaomed out Into full flower
again, with apparently more money
at His command than ever.
Colin laughed shortly to himself.
Suppose It should turn out that
Laiarre was a frequenter of Kennls
ton'a "club"?
The Bonaventure's whistle boom
ad out raucously. Colin, went down
to hla cabin to look after his goar.

CAP A L'ORAOB had not belled
Ha name. For three days follow
ing the afternoon of Colln'a arrival
the weather had been unsettled and
stormy, keeping him Indoora except
when, taking advantage of a tew
short-lived bursts of sunshine, Ger
malne Tremblay and he had gone tor
walks together. He had apent a great
deal of time at Dr. Tremblay'a house,
otherwise the days would have been
onea of unutterable ennui, Aa It
was, . , .
He struck a match, cupped bla
hands against the wind, and lighted
a cigarette his eyes on the girl In
the stern of the motorboat beside
him, who at the moment was bend
ing over the engine with an oil can
In ber hand. He wished he could
write her Into a book and really
picture her as she was; but his pen
always stumbled over a girl and
so did his tongue.
He always addressed ber sedately
as Miss Tremblay, but be always
thought of her a? Germalne. He
wondered If she, who always called
blm Mr. Howard, would like the
name!
His eyes roved over the little
craft an open launch, save for Its
decked prow, under which one could
store perishables In wet weather, 01
even manage to crawl In uncomfort
ably oneself If one were concerned
;.-r.'.'.rai.i4a
only with a dry skin and not with
the handling of the boat.
SHE was still absorbed In the en
gine. His thoughts harked back
over the last three days. Dr. Trem
blay waa quite on his feet again
so much so that he and hla alster
were planning a little recuperative
trip over to Gasps' and then by motor
around the peninsula, when the
Belle Fleur, that made some of the
south shore ports, came In tomor
row. Colin liked Dr. Tremblay, Men
tally he pictured the other now:
a man of perhapa alxly with Iron
gray hair, slim, unostentatiously
particular about his dress and ap
pearanceand always an air of
courtliness about him that made one
lutnk of the manners of old France.
And Madame de Courval, the doc
tor's widowed sister much like the
doctor in her cordial and gracious
manners, and much like Germalne in
her high spirits. An unforgettable
household that Included Antoi
nette, who had once been Germalne'a
nurse aud waa now tho cook, and
Antolnette'a husband, Jacques, who
was the man of all work about the
house and who had been trained to
serve at table.
A quaint, picturesque place, Cap
a I'Orage but still strange to him.
No roads led out of Cap a I'Orage,
either to the east or the west or the
north and Its southernmost point
was Its own whart .The village be
gan and ended with Its own three or
four streets, excopt, of course, for
a trail here and there that ltd Into
the woods for a short distance.
A little village that waa all a
world unto Itself except on the
none too frequent steamer days. It
was that way all aloug the coast.
And the peoplel There was a charm
about their frugal and simple lives,
their unaffected friendliness, that
waa Irresistible. There was Madame
Frenler, for Instance. True, the ac
commodations left something to he
desired, but as for Madame Frinler
herself, nothing was too much trou
ble for her;
His thoughts veered suddenly
again, and a whimsical smile twisted
his Hps.
