"Wei!, do your share now, and he'll never know through me."
He left her then and she sank on the floor beside the window, resting her forehead on its low sill, looking out hopelessly toward a faint touch of silver that rimmed the eastern horizon. When the sun came flaming up she rose, rang for a maid, had a bath, coffee, and dressed herself in riding togs.
"Please tell Mr. Randolph I am restmg, and ask him to come for me when it is time for the party to start," she directed, "and send Dicky to me."
Dickey came, sweet and fresh from his morning bath, his blue eyes shining with a new delight.
"Mu\'A-er-dear! There's the nicest man here. He was out in the garden, early, when nurse let me out to play before breakfast. And we talked, and he told me stories. I like him best of anybody 'cept you! His name's Lord Stanhope and he hasn't any little boy at all. I wish my daddy was like him!''
"Hush, dear! Daddy loves you very much!" Pain was tearing at her heart, a pain she could not understand. She told herself fiercely that she hated Lord Stanhope, that she despised him, that nothing was too bad for him, and yet — and yet —
The spell of those days in the cabin, shut in from the world — those long, sweet, dream-filled days and nights! For five years she had tried to forget, tried to hate him, tried to despise him — and she did, she did\
Yet why did her heart leap to Dickey's plaintive "I wish my daddy was like him!"
Desperately, she pulled herself together for the day's ordeal. It seemed to her that she moved in a strange, weird dream through the morning greetings, the goodbye to Hubert with his politely murmured regrets for the affairs of state that detained him; the ride to the inn where the whole party left their ponies and took on guides and attendants for the short walk into the jungle; the decision to separate the party into pairs to compete for a trophy; the appalling realization that Geoffrey was to be her partner; the agony of walking with him through the sweet scented morning, while the guides stalked ahead and the attendants trailed behind.
Once away from the party, they made no pretense at conversation. What was there to say, between them? Miserably, she tried to broach the subject she must bring before him, but always her heart revolted from the task. The hours dragged by, and it was mid-afternoon.
Suddenly out of the silence, like an arrow :rom a bow, leaped a huge beast, straight reward Julie. With one bound Stanhope lung himself in front of her, as the animal eaped, a fearful picture of wide-mouthed, iharp-fanged rage. A gun spoke, and the :reature dropped, at their very feet. Julie ound herself sobbing, shaken out of all ;elf-control.
"Why did you risk your life for me?" ^he shuddered.
"I would giadl}" give my life to save you rom harm," he said gently. "Come, you ire tired. Now that we have something o show for the day, we will turn back."
He called the guides and bade them follow he attendants who already had slung the Teat beast from a pole and were trotting >ack in the direction of the inn. The oldest uide shook his head, and pointed a warnng finger toward the sky. Stanhope odded, and they all went off, leaving 'tanhope and Julie quite alone.
"The old fellow is afraid of storms," he xplained. "But I know this country retty well, and there's a jxjint with a won
