Tented the maid. It seemed mo hor
ridly unconventional . and shocking I
couldn't admit that I. was alone. That
was why, I wouldn't Jet you build, a
fire for me." " , '
Don't worry ."'smiied Magee. "You'll
find, we- hare an the conveniences up
here. I'll present yon to a chaperon
shortly a Mrs.- Norton who' is here
with her daughter. Allow me t& in
troduce'Mr. Cargan and Mr. Max."
The girl bowed with a , rather star
.tled air, an Mr. Cargan mumbled
something that had "pleasure" in it.
In the office' they found Professor Bol
ton and Mr. Bland sitting gloomily
before the fireplace. . . 4
"Got the news, Magee?" asked the,
haberdasher... '.'Peters has. done a .dis
appearing act. 4- ' .
' It was evident to Magee, that every
body looked upon Peters as his crea
ture and laid 'the hermit's sins at his
door. .He laughed.: '
"I'm going to head a search party
shortly," he said.. "Don't I detect the
odor of coffee in jhe distance?" - ;.
"Mrs. Korton;" remarked Professor
- Bolton dolefully, , "has kindly consent
ed to do what! she can." .
m The girl of the station" came through
the dining room door." It, was evident
she had no share in the general gloom
hat .the hermit's absence cast over
' 13 aid pate. Her eyes were bright with
v the glories of morning on a mountain.
In their depths there was no room
for pe3r" annoyances.. . - V" ' "
"Good morning," she safld to Mr. Ma
gee. - ."Tsnt It bracing? Have you
been, outside? - Oh, I" -
"Miss - Norton Miss ThornhiH," ex
plained "Magee. "Miss Thornhlll has
the sixth ""key, 'joa ' know. She came
Isfst night without .any- of i us know
ing." -r ' '. : , - : , ,
With lukewarm smiles, the two girls
shook hands. Outwardly the 'glances
they exchanged were nonchalant and
casual,' but somehow Mr. Magee felt
that among the matters tbey establish
ed. wer social p6sItknWlwi cussing,
guile and Jtaste in dress. - ,'-
When the rather unsatisfactory sub
stitute -for breakfast was consumed,
Mr. Magee rose -briskly. -r -
"Now," he said, "I'm going to run up
to the Beraif shack and -reason with
him as best I can. I shall paint In
touching dolors nr sad plight. - If the
man has" an. atom of decency .
"A , walk on. the mountain ; in the
, morning,", said Miss Tbprohttl quickly.
"Splendid.' 1" , V ' t -'- "
"Wonderful,": put " in Miss Norton.
- ' "I, for ones can't resist. Even though
. I haven't been invited, I'm going
along." - She -smiled sweetly. She had
beaten the other girl by the breadth
of a hair," and she knew It. New glo
ries shone in Jer eyes. ' - ' ' ''!
"C-3odV for yon V -said Magee. . '. The
evi' hour of explanations was at band
svely., ,"Ura up and get your things."
While Miss 1 Norton was gone Mr.
Cargan. and Lou Max engaged in ear
nest converse near a window. . After
which Mr. Max pulled on his overcoat.-
'-v . " - ' . '-..' -"
" "I ain't been invited either,'' he said,
"but I reckon I'll go along. I always
wanted to see what a hermit lived
like when he's really truckled down to
the hermit business.- And then a walk
in the morning has always been my first
' rule for health. Ton don't mind, do
you?" .'"" A : ' ' ' - ...
"Who am I," asked Magee, "that
I should Stand between you and
health? ..Come along, by all means."
The three went out through the front
door and found under the snow a hint
of the path that led to the shack of the
post card' merchant.
"Will you go ahead?" asked Magee
of Max. , "
"Sorry," grinned Max, "but I guess
111 bring up the rear.'-'
"Suspicion," said Mr. , Magee, shak
ing his head,, "has caused a lot of trou
ble in the world- Remember the cruel
ty practised on Pueblo Sam."
"I. do," replied Mr. Max, "and It
nearly breaks my he6rt. Bui there's a
little matter "I forgot to' taehtjon last
night. Suspicion Is all right In its
place."' r-
Where's that?" asked Mr. Magee.
Mr. Max tapped ftia p&rfow chest.
"Here." he said. So the three began
the -climb,, Mr., Magee and the. girl
ahead Mr. Max leering ai their heels.
Covertly Mr., Magee glncd at the
girl striding: along by his . side. The
red flamed In her cheeks;' her long
' lashes were flecked with the white of
the snow; her face was such a one as
- middle aged men dream of while their
fat "Wives read the evening paper" s
beauty hints1 at their side. Far beyond
the ordinary woman was she desirable
. fend pleasing. Mr. Magee told himself
he had been a fool, for he who had
. fought fc valiantly for her heart's de
sire at the foot of the steps bad falter
ed when the time came to hand her
the prise. - Why? - What' place had can-,
tion in the wild "scheme of the night
lief ore? " None surely. ' And yet he,
dolt, idiot, coward, had in the moment
' of trinm"ph turned cautious. Full con
fession, he decided, was the only way

The eyes of the girl glowed happily.
She was beaming.
' "I'm so glad," she said. " "But why
why ' didn't you 'give it to ' mo ': last
night? It would have meant so. much
if you had.' . ", ' ' -
"That," replied Mr. Magee, "is. what
I'm coming to very reluctantly. -.Did
you note any spirit of caution in the
fellow who' set forth on your quest and,
dropped over the balcony rail? You
did not. I. waited. On the porch " and
saw Max tap the safe. I saw him and

terested In." 4 : "
"Yes," said the girl - breathlessly.
"And then" " '-;:.. ; ' '
"I 'started to bring it to you','' went
on Magee, glancing over bis shoulder
.at ;Max. - "1 was 'all aglow, with ro
mance and ba-ttle and all that sort of

The light died in her- eyes. '- Re

; "Tes," continued Magee, "your knight

run' on schedule. She, too, asked me
for that package of money." . .. -.
"And you gave- it to her," said the
girl scornfully. ;
; "Oh, no," answered Magee quickly.
"Not so ; badA as that. I simply , sat
down on the steps and thought. I got
cautious. ' I decided to wait until to
dajv: ,;I I did wait" --"' - ":,
-, He paused. The girl strode on,' look
ing straight ahead.. ' . , v -
"I know," ne said, "what you think.
I'm a fine specimen of a man to send
on a hunt like, that a weakneed
mollycoddle who passes into a state of
coma at -the crucial moment. , But?
I'm going to give ; you that package
yet"..-:--' "V - -' '.-' '.,
: The -girl turned her head." Mr. Ma
gee saw that her eyes were misty with
tears. , - .--,'-'
"You're playing with me," she said
brokenly., - "I - might' have known.
And I trusted you. You're in the game
with the ' others and I thought you
weren't. I staked my .whole chance of
success on you. Jfow you're making
' sport of nie. ; You never intended - to
give me that money. You don't In
tend to now." .-, ; v ' ;.. V' v,: .
"On" my word," cried "Magee, "I do
intend to give it to you the minute
we get back to the inn!: I have it safe
In -my room."- ,v .'-;v;
"Give it to her,": said the girl bitter
ly.. "Why don't you give it to her?"
, Oh, the perversity, of women!
"It's you I want to give it to," re
plied Magee warmly. . "I don't know
what was the mattes with . me last
night. I was a fool. You, don't "be
lieve in me, I know" ' Her Cace was
cold and expressionless. : . . . , r
"And I wanted to believe In you
so much," shesaid. " . L. ' - !
' "Why did you want to?" cried Ma
gee. "Why?" . , '
She plodded on through the snow.
"Yon must believe," he pleaded. "I
don't know what all this is about on
my word of honor. But I want to-give
you i that money, and I will the min
ute we-get back to the inn. . Will you
believe then? Will you?" .
"I hate you," said the girl Bimpiy.
She should not have 'said that As
far back, as he could remember such
opposition had stirred Mr. Magee to
wild deeds. He opened his mouth,
and words flowed -"forth. What were
the words ? . v - .
, ,"1 love youl . XJove you! Ever since
that moment In the station I have
loved you! I love you!" r .'
Faintly he heard himself saying It
over and over.. By the gods, he was
proposing inanely, in words of one
.syllable, as the butcher's boy might
have told his love to the second kitch
en maid.-' ,
- "I love you,", he continued. Idiot!
Often Mr. Magee had thought of
the moment when he would tell his
love to a woman. It was a moment
of , dim lights, music perhaps in the
distance, two. souls caught up in the
magic of 'the moonlit night a pretty
graceful speech from him, a sweet
gracious surrender from the girl. And
this instead. . . :.
"I love you." r In heaven's name, was
he never going, to stop saying it? "I
want you to believe.'' " - ' ,
Good lord!- He recalled that a fel
low novelist, whose love scenes were
regarded as models by young people
suffering the tender . passion, had. once
confessed that he proposed to hiswife
on a street car and was accepted just
as the conductor handed him his trans
fers. The girl deliberately stopped. There
was. never less of sweet gracious sur
render in a suffragette hurling a stone
through a shopkeeper's window. She
eyed Mr. Magee pityingly, and they
stood' w&til Mr." Max caught up with
them."
"So that's the hermit's shack," said
Max, indicating the little wooden hut
at whiclr they. had arrived. "A funny
place for a guy to ?bury himself. Z
should think he'd get to longing for
the white lights and the table d'hotes
with red wine.": ' S
"A very nnrOmantic speech," reprov
ed the girl. "Yob should be deeply
ttfrfttedf at t he tfcoiigW of penetratfo?
the secrets of the hermitage. I am.
9
Are you, Mr. Magee?" - . '
She smiled up at Magee, and he was
in that state where he thought that in
the blue depths of her eyes tote saw the.
Bunny slopes of the islands of the blest.
. . he caught himself in time. He
would not be idiot enough to babble it
again.,. He pulled himself together.
"I'm going to make you believe in me."
he said, with a touch of his old jauntl
ness. ' .-- -
- Mr.. Max. was knocking with charac
teristic loudness at the hermit's door.
The uoor of the hermit's abode open
ed before Mr. Max's masterful knock,
and the bearded, little .man appeared on
"Why didn't you fl've it to me laa
: night?" -
turn 'tnresnuiu 'He was clad in a pur
ple dressing gown that 'suggested some
woman bad picked it. . Surely no man
could have fallen victim to that riot of
color.' r- .- 'i : -.'..' '- . ' :
"Come in," said the hermit In a tone
so colorless it called added, attention
to the gown. ," "Miss, you have the
chair. You'll have to be contented with
that" soap- box- davenport, gentlemen.
Well?" ,; ,-,"-;. v vV---
1 He stood facing them; in the middle
f bis hermitage.' : . , '
' "We have come to plead" began
Miss Norton, turning her eyes at their
full -candle power on the thermit's
bearded face. . .
"I beg pardon, miss," interrupted Mr.
Peters, "but - it vain;t any use. "I've
thought it all out in the night watches,;
as the poet says. I canie up here to be
alone. I can't be a hermit and a cook
too. . I can't and Je true to myself.
No, you'H have to accept my resigna
tion' to take effect at once.". . '
- He sat down on an uncertain chair
and i regarded thtem sorrowfully. His
long, ; well shaped fingers clutched the
cord of the purple gown. ;
'Itisn't as though; wea were- asking
you to give up the hermit business for
good," "argued Magee. "If s just fojf
a short time ma;be only for a few
days. I should think you would wel
come the diversion." ' ." ,
- Mr. Peters shook his head vigorous
ly. The- brown Curls waved flippantly
about his shoulders. : n . ..
' ."My instincts," he replied, "are away
from the crowd. I explained that to
you when we first met, Mr. Magee.".
"Any man," commented' Mr. Max,
"ought to be able to strangle . his in
stincts for 'a good salary, payable .In
advance." ; --V'"""f .
You come here," said the hermit
with annoyance, "and you bring with
you ' the . sentiments . of the outside
world the world I have' fores worn.
Don't do it I ask you."
"I don't get you," reflected Mr. Max.
"No, pal, I don't quite grab this her
mit game. It ain't human nature, I
say.; Way up here miles from the little
brass rail and. the sporting extra and
other things that make life worth, liv
ing. It's beyond me." ;V,
,"Imr not 'asking your approval," re
plied the hermit, "AH I ask is to be
let alone." - ' . ' ;
"Let me speak," said Miss Norton.
"Mr. Peters and I have been friends,
you might say,"for-three years. It was
three years ago my awed eyes first fell
upon, htm, selling his postcards at the
inn. - He was to me then ,the true ro
mance, the man to whom the. world
means nothing ' without a certain wo
man at his side. That is what' he has
meant to all the girls: who came to

my ideal of iiim he isn't going to re
fuse a lady in distress.- You will come
for just a little while, won't you, Mr.
Peters T' y ' - ; -v '.. ,
,-But Peters shook his head again.
"I dislike women as a sex," he said,
"but I've always been gentle and easy
with isolated examples of 'em. It
ain't my style to turn 'en down. But
this is asking too much. I'm sorry,
but I got to be true to my oath I got
to be a herratt-'.' ; . -- v
"MayBes" sneered" Mr. Max-, "he's- got
good reason for being a hermit May
be there's brass buttons and blue uni
forms mixed up In it," V , '
- "You come from the great world of
suspicion," answered the hermit, turn
ing reproving eyes upon him. "Your
talk, is natural. It goes with the life
you lead. But it isn't tr ue."
"And Mr. Max is the last who should
Insinuate." rebuked Mr. Magee. "Why,
only last night he denounced suspi
cion and bemoaned the fact that there
is so much of it in the world."
"Well he might" replied the hermit,
'Suspicion is the keynote . of modern
life,' especially in New York.'' He
drew the purple dressing gown closer
about his plump form. "I remember
the last time' I was -in the big town
seeing a- crowd of men in the grill room
of the Hoffman House. One of them,
long, lean, like an eel, stooped down
