It was strange that the thought of | Inez should occur so frequently to John Phayre’s mind as he sat fishing " above Clouston weir. Perhaps it was ' that the miniature rapids above which | he fished, heedless of the warnings of | the guides and hotel man reminded | him a little of the huge Shoshone rap- | . ids, where he and inez used to meet. . Inez was the daughter of & sheep ! farmer, and John had worked for the man for two years before the unex- ! pected death of a rich old uncle left ! him a fortune. Phayre was forty years old and he | Lhad put a barren youth behind him. . He had once thought of marrying Inez. ! But Inez was wholly uneducated, a ' daughter of the western plains. They loved each other. Had John been ten | years younger he would have plunged g headlong into matrimony. But middle age brings caution. And so, realizing the improbability that such a mar- riage would bring happiness, John had " sald good-by to Inez and her father and gone East. There had been a look in Inez’ eyes, | } membered it often nowadays as he sat ‘l fishing on the little Adirondacks lake | near the summer hotel. It was unfor- lt\mnte that he should be thinkiag of Inez when he was engaged to marry Dorothy Baird. a hurt, pained, hopeless look—he re- | went to his lawyer and told him that he wished to settle a sum of money | upon his fiancee. “I suppose it is not necessary to let her know before the marriage takes place,” he said. “I would rather it had | the aspect of a—surprise.” ! “Certainly not, Mr. Phayre,” an- I swered the old lawyer. “How much is the sum you were thinking of settling | | on Miss Baird?” i "One hundred thousand dollars,” aa- swered John. “A large sum, Mr. Phayre,” suggest- ed the lawyer, rubbing his hands thoughtfully. “It will etill leave me a hundred thousand of my own,” John Phayre replied. “Well, Mr. Phayre, 1 don't want to | dissuade you, but—well, often a man ! acts impulsively and regrets it after- ward.” “1 shall not regret it,”” answered John. “Please draw up the settlement in such a way as to make it absolutely | irrevocable in case I change my mind | or-—die."” The lawyer drew up the settlement, and John left him. He went to his bank and drew out ~ hundred thou- sand dollars in notes. This he mailed "to himself at a post office in the West, Nobody at Shoshone Station anything of John Phayre's eastern | connections. | Then John went back to the hotel, “Are you going fishing again, John?" inquired Dorothy affectionately, put- ting her arms round him. “I wish you { wouldn't fish above the weir, John.

He did not want to spy upon a love affair. But, to hie horror, he heard the wom- an's voice reply, and the woman was Dorothy.
