She flashed him a look of amusement as he i made her known as “Mise Good. Miss Good, as they could see, possessed unerring good taste, but what was more, had a real genlus for finding bargains. As a bargain hunter Miss Good was positively unique. Ma Briskow pricked up her ears at this, soon she and the newcomer had their heads together, and within a few minutes Gray realized that his ex- periment was a success. Gray called Miss Good aside, “Please let me return at lunch time. T promise to talk upon that subject which every man can discuss to best advantage—himself—and [ pledge myself not to ask one single question about you. Miss Good. Not one—"" He bowed coremonliously over her hand. “Although, as you can imagine, I'm «dying to ask a thou- sand.,” to a tiny decelt, [ shall burden CHAPTER VIIT.

He came unexpectedly, and he still wore his rough ranch clothes. After an hour or more spent with his wife and daughter, he went down to Gray's room and thanked bim for the assistance he had rendered the two women, I"ollowed a few moments of desul- tory conversation, then he put an abrupt question: “Mr. Gray, you're a rich man, ain't you? “I—am so considered.” “Um-m!

But a disappointment awaited Cal- vin Gray when, late that afternoon, he returned to the store. Miss Good had gone. At first he refused to helieve Ma Briskow's statement, but it true: she had disappeared as gnietly and as unobtrusively as she had ajy peared, and what,was more annoy- ing( she had left no word whatever for him. “Where is Allie?” Gray inquired. “Lord Kknows She's som'eres around bein’ worked over by a couple of women, Gettin' her hair washed an' her finger nails cured an’ T dunno what not. Merey me! The things Miss Good had ‘em do to her! An’ the money we've spent! Allie's gone hog wild." Gray pretended to listen as the good woman babbled on, but as he was thinking about the girl who had dis- appeared.
