Sometimes he waS almost near enough tethe horse to touch the beast’ flank; ‘sometimes he lagged by dred feet or more, But he never let <he Unconscious rider out of his wight. ‘The horgeman was Roderick Van Nostrand, . He was In the habit of taking rides through the park and the count- less Janes and byways of the country beyond. But this evening he let his horse choose his own gait. His mind was full of many confusimg thoughts. ‘The events of the past few weeks had had ithelr effect on him, While he was, in normal moments, too sane to piace great credence in love charms and philtres, yet the apparently magical ‘ef- fects the bracelet had exercised on his thoughts and actions seemed almost beyond the possibility of mere coin- cldence, True, the Interruption of the women in black at the moment he had been on the oolnt of proposing to Mirl- am Haynes might have turned fis thoughts by natural méans into q saner channel and thus averted the proposal. Yet the fact that his heart had turned trom Miriam the moment the bracelet was fairly clasped'on his wrist was, to gay the least, odd. pen, too, though he had seen the in black for only a moment, and had not been able to get a look at her face, her person- ality was’ ever in his mind, and he could not forget her, Late that afternoon, in revulsion of fecling, he had tesolved to place no more dependence {n the* whole, nonscn- sical matter—woman in blaék, bracelet and all. With this !dea.in view he had taken off the bracelét, tossed it care- lessly Intd an opén dtawer, ordered his horse and gone for a ‘ride in the park. Tho man who fdllowed him had jumped out of a closed carriage at the entrance gf the park, whither the carriage had for some distance fol- lowed the equestrian. * As the mati “left the vehicle he had Whispered a, hurrle@ @irection to the driver, a swatthy, urfkempt-looking fel- low, who ‘had nodded\and driven hasMy toward the Patt Circle. The man now crept bnoe more close to the horse @s the latter dropped into a walk at a dark turn of the path.

Angther equestYlan was com- long afternoon and evening}. ing down the bridle path in the same dispetion from which Roderick Van Nostrand had come. The newoomer's horse was pacing rapidly and at every stride drew nearer to Van Nostrand. ‘Dio latter’s roan started at the ap- proaching sound and neighed. Roderick turned idly In his saddle and looked back through the fading light. A Woman maunted on a white horse cfite around the curve in ¢he road, Roderick drew to the right to let her ‘pass, noting as he did so that there seemed something familiar in the élen- der, graceful figure in the close-fitting lack riding habit. At sight of her his heart, for some unaccountable reason, Seemed to stop beating. When she was abreast of him she ohecked her horse and said: “Good evening, Mr. Van Nostrand.” He atarted slightly, Both because of the unexpectedness of the salutation and because a note in her votce vaguely recalled some distant sweet memory. “You do not know me?” tne girl went on. “I know you,” he answered dully, straining his eyes at the same time to A Romance of Six Girls’ Love For One Man.
