In Whioh Dog TreipuMea, EENEI.01'1.: win ii perversa nnd cnleulallng young iiei-Hon. Hho wiih her own mistress mid privileged to rldo mm often as ho pleased, but It Keemed nither odil llhough Hplomlldly decorous that she old not ventnro upon Mr. Shaw's oh- to to for more than n week lifter her first eneounler with the feudal hnroii. If alio found a peculiarly feminine sat iafaetluu In speculating on his disap pointment, it la not to bo wondered at. Womanly Insight told her that Ran dolph Hhaw riHlu forth each day and watched with hawkllko vigilance for the promised trespasser. In her luing Inntlon alio could utmost hear hlin urno tho luck that wua helping her to ovado tho patrol. Ono morning after n rain she rode with tlio duko to the spot whero Hhaw had drawn IiIh lino lit the road. Hhe felt n thrill of something ahn could not define on discovering that tlio wet soil en tho opposite sldo of tho lino wan disfigured by u mass of fresh hoof Iirlnta. Hho rejoiced to II nd that his rlfill waa Incessant and worthy of tho Kwpect it Imposed. Tho desire to visit the haunted house waa growing more and moro Irresistible, but aim turned It usldo with ull tho relentless per erNcne of a woman who feelH It worth while to procrastinate. Truth to toll, Knndolpti Shaw waa go Ing hollow eyed and faint In his ceaseless, racking watch for trespass ers. I'enelope laughed aloud aa alio gazed Upon tho tangle of hoof prints. Tho luko looked aa surprised aa it waa ttossihlo for him to look after tho wear f tho past night. "Hang It nil, lVnolope," ho aald. "I didn't any anything, don't you know." "! waa Just thinking," alio aald hasti ly, "what fuel It would bo for lie to ex plore tho haunted house." "Oh, I any, I'en, that's going out of tho way for a little fun. Isn't It? My word. It'a n filthy old horse with rata and mice and all that-no place for a ghost, much less n ulcu lit t It human being llko you. They're all llko that." "I thluk you are afraid to go." aald alio. "Afraid of ghosts? Pshaw!" aullTed tho duko, slicking out hla chest. "Yea, Hhaw; that's whom you're afraid of." "Now, seo here, Ten, yu shouldn't any that. Shaw'a a d , a cad. See what Cecil did to him. Remember that? Well, pooh! What would I do to him?" renelopo looked him over critically. "I'll admit that you're larger nud foiiiiger than (Veil," alio confessed frmdgliigly. "Hut they any Mr. Shaw Ik a giant killer." Tho duko dropped tils monocle nnd gulTawed loudly. "Cood!" ho cried In tho ecstasy of Irido. Ills worn, dissipated face light k1 lip with unwonted Interest. "I any, l'en. that's tho nicest thing you've aald to me lu a week. You've been ao deuced eold of late. I don't under taud. I'm not such a bad lot, you Ik now." "Tell that to Mm. Ho Peyton and Mrs. Corwlth. They're looking for the jrood In everything." "lty Jovo, I believe you're Jealous! This la the proudeat moment of my life." "Don't be silly! And don't try to jeinkft love.triJM. any morj .WnJJjm: tn i'nl married"," alio added", Willi" a laugh, the Irony of which escaped him. "Hut, hnng It ' all, suppose you should marry some ono elso and not me?" "That's what. I mean." "Oh," he Kald, pet-plem-d. Then, ns If hla stupidity called for an explana tion: "I had n beaatly night. Iildn't go to bod till 4. Hut, I any. why can't I have the innio privilege as these other chaps? Corwlth undies love to you and so does Odwell, and, hang It, they're both married. It's rotten mean of"- "Tholr wives aro accountable for their nniniicrs, not. I. Hut, come; will you go to Iluuwood'B with mo?" "I'd rather talk to you lu that nice littlo corner of tho billiard room nt homo If you" "Hut I don't need a brandy and soda. Oil !" This exclamation camo with tho discovery of nn approaching horseman. "It's Mr. Bhaw, I'm sure." Itandolph Hhnw, loyal to his feudal promise, nppenred In tho rond n coiiplo of hundred yards awny. IIo drow roln and from that distance surveyed tho two who were ao near to encroaching 111111 his preserves. IIo sat strulght nnd forbidding lu tho saddle. For a full minute tho two factions sin red nt each other. Then, without a algn of recognition, Khnw turned and rodo rap- Idly awny. "Ho rides like a gentleman," com mented Miss Drake, after reflection. "Indian blood In him," remarked her companion. "Let ns go home," said she, whirling her horse llko a flash. Tho duke had aomo dllllciilfy In keeping a breast of her during the ride, nnd ho lost sight of her altogether after they dismount ed at Hnxclhurat Villa. Tho momentary glimpse of a real man set l'enelope's opinions on edgo for the remainder of tho day nud night. Shaw, whatever else ho might bo, waa a man. Even while others addressed her In conversation sho waa nhsciitmlndcdly recalling to memory certain I'ligllsh gentlemen at homo who could Mum! comparison with this hnndsomo fellow across tho danger lino. lint to compare nay ono of tho men in I.ndy Ilnzelhural's honso party oh, It was nbaurdl She looked them over. Dull eyed, blase, frayed by tho social whirl, worn out, pulseless, all of them. They talked automobile, bridge, women and self In particular. In tho seclusion of a tele n-lelo they talked lovo with an nrdor that lost moat of Its danger because It was from forco of habit. One of tho men was even now admitting In her ear that ho had not spent an evening alone with his wlfo lu four years. "There's Always something doing," ho aald. "A week or two ago, by Jove, you wouldn't believe It, but we had nn evening turn up without n thing on hand. Strangest thing I ever knew. Neither of na had n thing on. We aald wo'd alny nt home and go to bed ear ly Just to sco how It felt. Well, what do you think? We ant up and read till half past 10 o'clock, and then both of us thought of It nt tlm same tlmo. Wo dressed and went down to Hec tor's nnd waited for the theaters to let out. Three o'clock when we got home. You can't Imagine what n queer experience It Is being all alone with one's wife." "Don't you love your wife, Mr. Od well?" "Certainly! Hut there's always a crowd." lloth of litem glnnced over nt pretty Mrs. Odwell. She was look ing down nt her plate demurely while Reggie Van Voort talked straight Into her pink enr, his eyes gleaming with tho nest of Invasion. "I say, Miss Drnke, you won't mind talking to mo awhllo after dinner, will you?" went on Odwell, something llko relief 111 his voice. After dinner she waa obliged to set hlin straight In a little matter. They were alttlng on tho terrace, nnd lio hud thrown away his half smoked ciga rette, nn act In Itself algnltloaiit Sho had been listening patiently, from sheer habit and Indifference, to what he waa saying, but at last alio revolted. "Don't! Yon shall not any such things to me. I am not your kind, I fancy, Mr. Odwell," alio aald. "I don't know why you should tell mo of your chorus girl friends, of your suppers nnd all that. I don't care to hear of them, nud I don't Intend that you ahull use me na a subject of Illustration. 1 am going npstnlra." "Oh, come now, t lint's rather rough. Just ns wo were getting on ao well. All tho fellows do the same" "I know. You need not tell me. And you all havo wives at homo, too," with Intense scorn, "Now, that's where you wrong na. They're not at home, you know. That's Just II." "Never nilud, Mr. Odwell; I'm going In." Sho left him and entered the house. Kor a minute or two he looked after her In wonder and (hen, softly whispering, made Ida way over, to whero De Peyton, through somo over algbt, was talking to hla own wife. Ve Peyton unceremoniously announc ed that ho was going upstairs to write a letter. Penelope, Hushed with disgust and humiliation, drew near a crowd of men and women In tho long living room. Her brother was haranguing tho as semblage, standing forth among them llko an unconqucred banlaui. in spite of herself Bhe felt a wave of shnnie and pity creep over her as she looked at bl in. "Bnrnmlnater saya tho fellow ran when he saw hlin today," Ids lordship wui1 saying. "But tTiuf doesn't" EeTp" matters. Ho has been on my land again nnd again, Tompkins snys, and Tompkins ought to know." "And James, too," said the duke with a bra lulled roar. "Can't Tompkins and his men keep (hat man off my Innd?" demanded Lndy Hnzlohurat. Every one took note of the pronoun, Her ladyship's temples seemed to narrow with hatred. Hazel hnrat had told the men privately that aho was passing sleepless nights in or der to "hnto that fellow Shnw" to her full capacity. "My dear. I hnve given positive or ders to Tompkins, nnd he swears he'll carry them out," said he hastily. "I suppose Tompkins la to throw him Into the river again," "ITe U to shoot that fellow Bhaw If ho doesn't keep off our land. I've hnd enough of It. They any he rodo his confounded plow borao ull over the west end the other day." I'enelope smiled reflectively. "Trampled the new fern beds out of existence and ull. that Hang him, Tompkins will get him if he peralata, lie has told tho men to tnko a shot at tho rascal on sight Tompkins doesn't love him, you know." Penolopo went her way, laughing, and forgot tho danger that threatened Randolph Bhaw. The next morning, quite early, she was off for a cunter. Homo magnetic forco drew her townrd thnt obliterated line in tho rondway. Almost us she camo up to it nnd stopped Itandolph Show rodo down the hlllsldo through the trees and drew rein directly oppo site, tho noses of their horses almost touching. With a smllo he gave tho military salute even as she gasped in self conscious dismay. "On duty, Miss Drake; no trespass ing," he said. There waa a glad ring In his video. "Denso don't ruu awny. You're on the snfe side." "I'm not going to run," she aald, her cheek flushing. "How do you know where the line Is? It has been de stroyed by tho ravages of time." "Y'es. It has seemed a year. This thing of acting sentinel ao religiously la a bit wearing." Hla great friendly dog enmo across the Hue, however, and looked bravely up into the enemy's face, wagging his tall. "Traitor! Come back, Bonaparte!" cried his master. "What a beautiful dog!" she cried, sincere admiration lu her eyes. "I love a big dog. He Is your best friend, I'll wager." " 'Lovo me, love my dog,' 1s my mot to." Tho conversation was not prolonged, renelopo began to find herself on rath er friendly terms with tho enemy. Confusion came over her when she re membered that she was behaving In n moat, unmnldenly manner. Doubtleas thnt was why she brought tho meet ing to a close by galloping nway. Tho ways of fortune aro strnnge, look nt them from any point of view. Surprising us It may seem, a llko en counter happened on tho following day and aye, on tho day nfter nnd every day for a week or more. Occasion's there wero when Penelope was com pelled to equivocate shamefully In or der to escape (ho companionship of the duko, the count or others of their Ilk. Once when the guardian of tho rond was late nt his post she rodo far Into the enemy's country, netually thrilled by (he Joy of adventure. When he ap peared far down the rond alio turned nud fled with all the sensations of a culprit, nnd he thundered after her with vlndlctlveness that deserved bet ter results. Across the line alio drew rein nnd faced him defiantly, her hair blown awry, her cheeks red, her eyes sparkling. "No trespass!" she cried, holding up her gloved hand. Ho stopped short, for that was ono of Ihe terms of truce. The next day he again was missing, but alio was not to bo caught by hla stratagem. Instead of venturing Into the trap ho had prepared for her, she remained on her side of the Hue, smil ing at the thought of him in hiding far up the road. If any one had suggeated to her that she was developing too great nn interest In this stalwart gen tleman she would have laughed til lit to scorn. It hnd not entered her mind to question herself ns lo llio pleasure she found In being nenr hlin. Sho wns founding her actions on the basis thnt ho was n real man and that tho little comedy of adventure was qulto worth while. At length nn Impatient lino nppenred on her fair brow, a resentful gleam In her eyes. Ills remissness was nn Impertinence! It was the last time she would come but a sudden thought truck her like n blow. She turned white and red by turns. Had ho tired of the sport? Had the novelty worn off? Was he laughing at her for a silly coquette? The riding crop cnuie down sharply upon her horse's flank, and n very deeply agitated young wo man galloped off toward Bazelhiirst Villa, hurrying ns though nfrnld he might catch sight of her In flight. A quarter of n mile brought u change In her emotions. British stubbornness nroHO to combat nn litter rout. After ull, why should sho rim nwny from hlin? With whimsical bravado she turned off suddenly Into the trail that led to the river, her color deepening with tho consciousness that, lifter all. ahe was vaguely hoping she might see him somewhere before tho morning passed. Through the ler.fy pathway alio rode nt a aniiU'a pace, brushing tlio low hanging leaves and twigs from about her head with something nkln to petulance. , , As she nenred the river tho neighing of a horso hard by caused her to sit erect with burning ears. Then she relapsed Into a amllo,i remembering that It might have come from the guiuo warden's horse. A moment Inter her searching eyes caught sight of Shaw'a horse tied to a sapling nnd on Batelhurat ground, many hundred feet from hla own domain. She drew rein shnrply and looked about In consider able trepidation. Off to tho right lay the lor that divided the lands, but nftwhere along the bank of the river could aha see tho trespasser. Careful ly she resumed her way, ever on the lookout, punlcd not a little by the HMiBunl.stntq.of affMrs. DEMOCRATS WILL OPEN UNITED rilESI UABKD WIIU.1 Sea Girt, Aug. 31.
