CHAPTER lll.—Continued. The dog sprang to the front, circled once, zigzagged through the ferns around us and, all in a moment, stif fened stock still, rigid as sculptured bronze. I stepped forward, raising my gun, two paces, three paces, ten per haps, before a great cock-grouse blun dered up from the brake and burst through the thicket fringe toward the deeper growth. There was a flash and puff front my gun, a crash of echoes among the low wooded cliffs, and through the faint veil of smoke some thing dark dropped from mid-air amid a cloud of feathers, brown as the brown leaves under foot. "Fetch!" Up from the ground sprang Voyou, and in a moment lie came galloping back, neck arched, tail stiff but wav ing, holding tenderly in his pink mouth a mass of mottled bronzed feathers. Very gravely he laid the bird at my feet and crouched close beside it, his silky ears across his paws, his muzzle on the ground. I dropped the grouse into my pocket, held for a moment a silent caressing communion with Voyou, then swung my gun under my arm and motioned the dog on. It must have boon five o'clock when I walked into a little opening in the woods and sat down to breathe. Voyou came and sat down in front of me. "Well?" I inquired. Voyou gravely presented one paw which 1 took. "We will never get back in time for dinner," said I, "so we might as well take it easy. It's all your fault, you know. Is there a brier in your fool ? Let's see—there! it's out, my friend, and you are free to nose about and lick it. If you 101 l your tongue out you'll get it all over twigs and moss. Can't you lie down and try to pant less? No, there is no use in sniffing and looking at that fern patch, for we are going to smoke a little, doze a little, and go home by moonlight. Think of Howlett's despair when we are not in time! Think of all the stories you will have to tell to Gamin and Mioche! Think what a good dog you have been! There —you are tired, old chap; take 40 winks with me." Voyou was a little tired. He stretched out on the leaves at my feet, but whether or not he really slept I could not be certain, until his hind legs twitched and I knew he was dreaming of mighty deeds. Now I may have taken 40 winks, but the sun seemed to be no lower when I sat up and unclosed my lids. Voyou "The Figure a Woman's Turned Slowly to Me." raised his head, saw in my eyes that 1 was not going yet, thumped his tail half a dozen times on the dried leaves, and settled back with a sigh. I looked lazily around, and for the first time noticed what a wonderfully beautiful spot I had chosen for a nap. It was an oval glade in the heart of the forest, level and carpeted with green grass. The trees that, sur rounded it were gigantic; they formed one towering circular wall of verdure, blotting out all except the turquoise blue of the sky-oval above. And now I uoticed that in the center of the greensward lay a pool of water, crys t?' clear, glimmering like a mirror in ttir grass, beside a block of CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1909. granite. It scarcely seemed possible that the symmetry of tree and lawn and lucent pool could have been one of nature's accidents. I had never be foreseen this glade nor had I ever heard it spoken of by either Pierpont or Harris. It was a marvel, this dia mond clear basin, regular and grace ful as a Roman fountain, set in the gem of turf. And tbese great trees — they also belonged, not in America but in some legend-haunted forest of France, where moss-grown marbles stand neglected in dim glades, and the twilight of the forest shelters fairies and slender shapes from shadow-lalnd. I lay and watched the sunlight show ering the tangled thicket where masses of crimson cardinal-flowers glowed, or where one long dusty sunbeam tipped the edge of the floating leaves in the pool, turning them to palest gilt- There wore birds, too, passing through (he dim avenues of trees like jets of flame —the gorgeous cardinal-bird that gave to the woods, to the village 15 miles away, to the whole county, the name of Cardinal. I rolled over on my back and looked up at the sky. Ilow pale—paler than a robin's egg—it was. I seemed to be lying at the bottom of a well, walled with verdure, high towering on every side. And as I lay, all about me the air became sweet scented. Sweeter and sweeter and more penetrating grew the perfume, and I wondered what stray, breeze, blowing over acres of lilies, could have brought it. lint there was no breeze; the air was still. A gilded fly alighted on my hand —a honey-fly. It was as troubled as I by the scented silence. CHAPTER IV. Then, behind me. my dog growled. I sat quite still at first, hardly breath ing, but my eyes were fixed on a shape that moved along the edge of the pool among the meadow grasses. The dog had ceased growling and was now star ing, alert and trembling. At last I rose and walked rapidly down to the pool, my dog following close to heel. The figure, a woman's, turned slowly toward us. She was standing still when I ap proached the pool. The forest around us was so silent when I spoke the sound of my own voice startled me. "No," she said, and her voice was smooth as flowing water. "I have not JL SfpKr "it" /_ p' ' ' " £ "I Saw Her Eyes Were Fixed cn My Forehead." lost my way. Will he come to me, your beautiful dog?" Before I could speak, Voyou crept to her and laid his silky head against her knees. "But surely," said I, "you did not come here alone." "Alone? I did come alone." "But the nearest settlement is Cardinal, probably 19 miles from where we are standing." "I do not know Cardinal," she said. "Ste. Croix in Canada is 40 miles least—how did you come into the Cardinal Woods?" I asked amazed. "Into the woods?" she repeated a little Impatiently. "Yes." She did not answer at first but stood caressing Voyou with gentle phrase and gesture. "Your beautiful dog I am fond of, but 1 am not fond of being ques tioned," she said quietly. "My name is Ysonde and I came to the fountain here to see your dog." I was properly quenched. After a moment or two I did say that in an other hour it would be growing dusky, but she neither replied nor looked at me. "This," I ventured, "is a beautiful pool—you call it a fountain—a de licious fountain! I have never before seen it. It is hard to imagine that nature did all this." "Is it?" she said. "Don't you think so?" I asked. "I haven't thought; I wish when you go you would leave me your dog." "My—my dog?" "If you don't mind," she said sweetly, and looked at me for the first time in the face. For an instant our glances met, then she grew grave, and I saw that her eyes were fixed on my forehead. Suddenly she rose and drew nearer looking intently at my forehead. There was a faint mark there, a tiny cres cent, just over my eyebrow. It was a birthmark. "Is that a scar?" she demanded drawing nearer. "That crescent-shaped mark? No." "No? Are you sure?" she insisted. "Perfectly," I replied, astonished. "A —a birthmark?" "Yes —may I ask why?" As she drew away from me, I saw that the color had fled from her cheeks. For a second she clasped both hands over her eyes as if to shut out my face, then slowly dropping her hands, she sat down on a long square block of stone which half encircled the basin, and on which to my amazement I saw carving. Voyou went to her again and laid his head in her lap. "What is your name?" she asked at length. "Roy Cardenhe." "Mine is Ysonde. I carved these diagon-flies on the stone, these fishes and shells and butterflies you see." "You! They are wonderfully deli cate—but those are not American dragon-flies." "No—they are more beautiful. See, I have my hammer and chisel with me." She drew from a queer pouch at her side a small hammer and chisel and held them toward me. "You are very talented," I said; "where did you study?" "I? I never studied —I knew how. I saw things and cut them out of stone. Do you like fhem? Some time I will show you other things that I have done. If I had a great lump of bronze I could make your dog, beauti ful as he is." Her hammer fell into the fountain and I leaned over and plunged my arm into the water to find it. "It is there, shining on the sand." she said, leaning over the pool with me. "Where," said T, looking at our re flected faces in the water. For it was only in the water that I had dared, as yet, to look her long In the face. The pool mirrored the exquisite oval of her head, the heavy hair, the eyes. I heard the silken rustle of her girdle. I caught the flash of a white arm, and the hammer was drawn up dripping with spray. The troubled surface of the pool grew calm and again I saw her eyes reflected. "Listen," she said in a low voice, "do you think you will come again to my fountain?" "I will come," I said. My voice was dull; the noise of water filled my ears. Then a swift shadow sped across the pool; r rubbed my eyes. Where her reflected face had bent beside mine there was nothing mirrored but the rosy evening sky with one pale star glimmering. I drew myself up and turned. She was gone. I saw the faint star twinkling above me in the after glow. I saw the tall trees motionless in the still evening air. I saw my dog slumbering at my feet. The sweet scent in the air had faded, leaving in my nostrils the heavy odor of fern and forest mold. A blind fear seized me, and I caught up my gun and sprang into the dark ening woods. The dog followed me, crashing through the undergrowth at my side. Duller and duller grew the light, but I strode on, the sweat pour ing from my face and hair, my mind a chaos. How I reached the spinney I can hardly tell. As I turned up the path I caught a glimpse of a human face peering at mo from the darkening ihicket—a horrible human face, yel low and drawn with high-boned cheeks and narrow eyes. Involuntarily I halted; the dog at my heels snarled. Then I sprang straight at it, floundering blindly through the thicket, but the night had fallen swiftly and I found myself pant ing and struggling in a maze of twist ed shrubbery and twining vines, un able to see the very undergrowth that ensnared me. It was a pale face, and a scratched one that I carried to a late dinner that night. Howlett served me, dumb re proach in his eyes, for the soup had been standing and the grouse was juiceless. David brought the dogs in after they had had their supper, and I drew my chair before the blaze and set my ale on a table beside me. The dogs curled up at my feet, blinking gravely at the sparks that snapped and flew in eddying showers from the heavy logs. "David," said I, "did you say you saw a Chinaman to-day?" "I did, sir." "What do you think about it now?" "I may have been mistaken, sir—" "Hut you think not. What sort of whisky did you putin my flask to day?" "The usual, sir." "Is there much gone?" "About three swallows, sir, as usual." "You don't suppose there could have been any mistake about that whisky —llO medicine could have gotten into it, for instance?" David smiled and said: "No, sir." "Well," said I, "I have had an ex traordinary dream." When I said "dream," I felt com forted and reassured. I had scarcely dared to say it before, even to my self. "An extraordinary dream," I re peated; "I fell asleep in the woods about five o'clock, in that pretty glade where the fountain —I mean the pool is. You know the place?" "I do not, sir." I described it minutely, twice, but David shook his head. "Carved stone did you say, sir? I never chanced on it. You don't mean the New Spring—" "No, no! This glade is way beyond that. Is it ppsslble that any people inhabit the forest between here and the Canada line?" "Nobody short of Ste. Croix; at least I have no knowledge of any." "Of course," said I, "when I thought I saw a Chinaman, it was imagination. Of course I had been more impressed than I was aware of by your adven ture. Of course you saw no China man, David." "Probably not, sir," replied David, dubiously. (TO BE CONTINUED.) Birthplace of Vegetables. Turnips and radishes came origin ally from central Europe.
