Billy Jelliff read Amy's letter three
times. It was a very friendly little
note thanking him for some lovely
roses and asking him to come to tea
that afternoon, That was all, but it
was not enough for Billy Jelliff nor
would it have satisfied any
young man who had indited seven
pages breathing undying love and de-
votion and asking her for Just one
word of encouragement in return.
Amy had not vouchsafed even one
word. Her customary: “Dear Mr. Jel

with his strong fleld glasses hoping
against hope that the glant ram might
still be In the neighborhood
The chances were against good luck.
By this time the ram might be many
miles away and might not cross thelr
track for months,
“I wanted those horns,” groaned
Channing as he sat down to supper,
“I'll get 'em for you before I leave
these regions,” declared *Billy, with

“I promised them to Bthel for the
dining room,” went on Channing,

of the rest of the missive chilled him
thoroughly and after he had read it
for the third time he folded it carefully
and placed it in his bill case where
he cherished the first note he had ever
received from hc», together with a
rosebud she had given to him.
“This ends the whole business,” he
declared solemnly and thereupon in-
dited a formal note of regret for his
Inability to come to tea that afternoon
and hastily packed a bag and cleared
out of town.
It was very easy for Billy Jelliff to
run away from the scene of this heart
disaster, for he had plenty of money-—
it he had been a poorer youth he
would have had to remain at his dally
tasks, drilling through the monoton-
ous grind of the wage-earner with
nothing to still his aching heart.
But Billy had money and he had a
friend who had started to hunt goats
in the Canadian Rockies. Billy man-
aged to overtake him at Winnipeg and
without stating his particular griev-
ance, announced that he had changed
his mind about remaining in New
York for the rest of the season.
Jim Channing found his companion
singularly disinterested concerning the
slaying of mountain goats. Jim would
sit patiently for six hours crouching
behind a jutting crag waiting for his
shy quarry to pass by and would count
himself lucky if he grazed the hide of
a goat as it skipped past.
On the other hand Billy Jelliff would
sit patiently for many hours, his eyes

“You'll never have another shot like
that,” predicted Channing
“Perhaps.”
Later as they sat before the camp-
fire smoking in silence, Channing, who
bad been watching Billy's gloomily
thoughtful face for some time, broke
out suddenly:
“What's the matter with you, any-
way, Billy?”
Billy exhaled a cloud of smoke and
looked into the bowl of his pipe
“Er—nothing,” he answered
“That means a girl,” said Channing
judicially.
Billy was silent.
“What became of the pretty red.
haired girl you used to follow around
last winter?” pursued Channing, con-
fident that now he was on the right
trail to the source of Billy's extraors
dinary behavior, for normally Billy
Jelliff was an ardent sportsman.
Billy affected nonchalance “I've
followed so many girls around,” he
murmured with a wry smile.
“Oh, I can remember her name if
I must! She was a chum of Ethel's
at school—Amy—Amy Ray! Where
is she now—married ?”
“For all T know,” murmured
indifferently, but there was that in
his voice that told much to his exe
perienced companion
“Of course I don't

had written to Amy and of her cool
reply.

manded taking Amy’s worn little note
from his bill case and giving it to his
friend.
Jim Channing held the note close to
the fire and read it; then, with the ex-
perience of the married, he turned the
sheet over looked at the back, unfolds |

“Of course yon read the postscript,
