MONDAY, JUi.= =, ——_ SYNOPSIS: There is a mystery surrounding Hope, the wife Rupert Joris suddenly took when Elinor Fleming jilted him. Dirk, Rupert's younger brother, is not only trying to solve the mystery; he is rather fond of Hope herselj. But all Dirk's spies have been able to learn is that Hope is much interested in a blond cowboy who has been work- ing in the rodeo at Madison Square Garden. Dirk is hurrying home to for Elinor Fleming's wed- ding—she is marrying the man she jilted Rupert to take. Chapter 23 RIDE TO THE NORTH IRK had got home early, and dressed with care—black cut- away, white spats, white gloves and gardenia. Could Rupert really mean to go to Elinor’s wedding? If so, then Hope and Rupert would go together, and he himself might hurry on alone. He looked in Rupert’s room, little surprised to find that he had gone | out again. He knocked on Hope's still in door and she opened it, | rooms, a boat-house and ¢: négligé. “Don’t wait for Rupert.” he said “Get a dress on, and come with me.” She said she was not going. “But you've got to!” Dirk swered. “One of you m | gestion, he had | bought two wedding presents thal | day—a silver dish and a set of saiad forks —one from himself, one from Mr. and Mrs. Rupert Joris. He felt. however, inadequate to represent | the entire family in the matter of at- tendance. He shot out his wrist. looked at} his watch. “There's time if you'll hurry. It} will be the dickens to explain if you | both stay away. Please, Hope. You | may ask something of me some} day.” | He doubted this, but she turned } from the door, and he knew that she | would go. an- | Ten minutes later she came out,! dressed. Timothy told them as th left that Mister Rupert had driv | up to the camp. | “For a few davs’ hunting, sir. The | grouse should be good now | Dirk explained to Hope that the Joris camp was at Big Moose. . “Near Lake Placid. He goes every fall. He'll be back by Monday.” At the church he seated Hope with Adelaide Joris, and then he stood beside Isabel while the old bishop united Elinor to Gage Sey. mour. The world was hushed and gray as they left the church and later, when bride and groom de- parted for their train, snowflakes were flying with the rice. Late Tuesday night Connolly tele. phoned Dirk inquiring how he might get in touch with Rupert. Dirk, who had expected Rupert home on Mon- day dirévted him to phone the camp. Yes, said Connolly, he knew where Rupert was supposed to be: he had met him Thursday in the act of leav- ing for Big Moose. But he had been calling the camp most of the day without receiving an answer. Dirk replied that he would drive up to Big Moose in the morning and discover what was wrong. He was distinctly uneasy. The snowflakes at Elinor’s wedding had been the edges of a storm that had blanketed the Lake Placid country tn white, calling out skis and tobog- gans and jolly rotogravures in the Sunday press. He and Hope had looked at the pictures together, had longed to round glorious Shady Curve on the Olympic bob-sled run. Rupert may have been hunting when the storm came, hunting with- out a guide. Or he might be drinking alone in the cabin, cut off from food- supplies and likely enough without a properly tended fire. Dirk mentioned none of these ap- prehensions to Hope. When he an- nounced to her that he would be running up to Big Moose, she an- swered, “May I go along?” “If you can get up at five,” he said. “And if you can stand hardship. It’s pretty cold up there.” He had no objection to her going, and he had no particular fear about leaving her behind. Her secrets, he had begun to believe, were innocent enough. She loved the blond cowboy —any fool could see that. She had gone with him, no doubt, from rodeo to circus, in the company of this Torrobin, who was their mutual friend, or the relative of one of them. She had been tired of that life, with that life, or with the boy. | heavy with more snow. | visits.

I . was snowing again now, blow ing in little whispers against the pane. Now and then a windy breath came down the black maw of the | chimney, scattering gray feathers of birch-ash out into the room, and driving the flame of the candle side- ways. They had forgotten to buy kerosene, and had had to empty the lamps into the stove to cook their steak. Somewhere Dirk had dug up the candle. They washed the dishes, too. in front of the fire, for it was bitter cold in the kitchen, now that the kerosene w: I gone. [t was bitter cold in the bedroom too, and even here in the big living-room, except close to the fire, while the little bathroom was like an ice-box. But Hope was not complaining. ‘Together they sat in the wide-armed hickory chairs, watching the fire, } and waiting. Dirk said, “I wish you'd lie down, and rest.” She shook her head. Her eyes looked hard and brooding. He had suspected for some time that she had begun to care for Rupert, not as she cared for that other man, per- haps, but as a friend, a benefactor whom she desired to please. He tried to reassure her. Rupert might have | gone elsewhere, he said. “Perhaps,” she answered. “Wher- | ever he is,-1 blame myself. 1 might have stopped him . . anyhow. And then he might have forgotten.” She seemed to be talking to the | fire, or thinking aloud. Dirk said quietly, not to intrude himself, merely to steer her thoughts into the light. “How could you have stopped him? | “By holding him ... that last day. By loving him back.

Like avenging himself on her. 1 couldn’t bear ... but now. She paused. Dirk in his astonish- ment was silent. It was perhaps the wisest answer, for she spoke again. “He loved her. He still loves her. I knew it the night of her dinner, when I saw them together.” So that was why she had been so quiet that night. She looked at him now, her brooding eyes full of the firelight. “Before that,” she said, “I wanted him to love me.’ (Copyright, 1935, Margaret Bell Houston) Tomorrow, Dirk sends Hope home—and is called there himself. | ; dogs to bark to a point where it! born at Sharon, Ohio, disturbs othe!
