F<>r the first time In her healthy young life sleep refused to visit her. !lJven her terrible grief at the death of her father had given way to sleep at last and she had for· gotten her tragedy for a blessed time But on the night following her !nterVi('w with the strang!:' man of the ('tiDyon she was wide awake tlll dawn. She was not uncomfortable. She did not think !!he was Ill. But an odd Inner warmth surged all through her. a pleasant fire ran In her veins. F!he lay In her hed wtth her hands beneath her head and thought over and over each phase of the day she had spen; with Sonny, each Incident that had led up to the appearance of Branrl Fair. Then, w'th a peculiar dellght, she went oY& his every word, every movement. SL~ remembered the look ot Ills brown hanfi on the black horse's bft, the tilt o.f his hat, the way theo chin-strap lay along his lean, dark cheek. ~hE' recalled the direct glance of his eyes, the slow smile that creased his lips' corners. He was like no other man she had ever seen. There was a sweetness in the tones of his dl'ep voice, a sense ot restful ness and strength about him. He Beemed to fit in with her dreams: of the best things to be had In llfe-llke lace curtains and the rag carpet 4Vhlch was slowly growing In her Mammy's hands. His name. too--Brand Fair.

Yes--F'alr was a little Ilk'! the sheriff, only more so--oil, verv much more so--quiet, steady, one whose word you would take without qut-stlon. He was different. thtlt was all-different. He had not aiW!\YS ll\•l:'d In the hill~. that wns certain. She lay down and rrled to sleep. but her eyes wonld not ohl'Y her will. They came open each time shP closo>d them to see this man 11tancllng at the jut of stone, his hand on the black's hit-at the pool by the cave below where he bade her .-good-by-stlll there when she looked back from far down the canyon.

"Well, I'd \Ike to know what ails me," she thought 1o herself as she got up with the- first gray shafts above M:vstPry ridge, "I never stayed un1ke ~ ll night ln my life before." It \\'lll' in!lic.. t1v'e of the great ~~:ood CompAn:r health nnd strength there was In her that she felt no Ill effects from the unusual experience. She brushed her hair and pinned it neatly around her head In a shining coronet, put on a clean denim dress from the cloth('Spress In the corner, laced up the heavy shoes she had to wear about her man's work, and went softly our to llght the kitchen fire, to draw a fresh pall of water and to stand lost In rapt ndoratlon of the pageant of coming day.

She had never had a special friend hefore--not since those far·baclr little· girl days in Missouri. "Mammy,'' she s11ld at. breakfast, "I ne\'el' slept a wink last night.

"Well. I'm not so sure of lt.'' returned th11 boy, "I hnte to see you take up so with a strnnger." "I trust your feelin' for him, Nance,'' ~aid Mrs. Allison, "somehow there'!< somethin' in a woman's heart when she lool<s Into a man's eyes, most times, which sets th' stamp on him for g-ood or bad. Seems like It's seventh sense which th' Almighty gives us woman·klnd for a safeguard. I trust it.'' "I J!:Uess I do, too, .Mammy,'' salil Nance, "leustways I felt to trust Brand Fair the first minute I laid eyes on him. He's dffferl:'nt." Mrs. Allison said no more, but she was thinking back over the long years to tbat camp-meeting time when she had meant to "frul!" the stronger, young John Allison, and how his smll· lng eyes coaxed her angry heart to peace--a peace which stayed with her a! ways, through hardship and poverty, through many western moves, nnd which softened now the sorrow of his absence. John Allison bad seemed to her "different" also. For some subconscious reason Nance stayed away from the canyon for sever;~! days. Sl1e busied herself with odd jobs about the place.

Whatever mystery might attach to him. this man felt noth ing personal In her @eecll. And so she sat down again with Sonny 1:::~ her lap and Brnnd sat down opposite, and they fell to talkin;;: tttertin the whl;;;pering sil<:>nce. while rhe late sun gilded the high hlade of th~> rimrock and the cool shadows deep· en!:'d In the gorge. It was strange rairy-!aud to Nance, nnd all the Inner rountry of her spirit shone and sparkler! under a fire of stars. She hud never felt so before- never known the half-tremulous excitement which flllell her now. When this man ~pol•e she listened avidly, her blue eyes on his race.

As he sat before her In his worn garments which might have denoted a noverty as great as hers, he seemed rich beyond ('ompare, a potentate of the world. He smoked small brown cigarettes which he made from a little old leuth,..r pouch and rolled with the dexterity of long usage, and he buried each stub carefully In the sand. He was a Tfilll'\•elous person, Indeed, nnd Nance regarded him In a sort of awe. "I've heen In to Cordova a time or two.'' he said casually, "and have met the sheriff and several others. To them T'm a prospector. There seems to be 11. lot of unrest ln the country.'' "It's the rustlers," said Nance, "II lot of cattle have disappeared. and some folks blame the sheriff'. I don't.

"Look at Diamond," he replied smllingly, "w~ always follow the water." A strearr ~eaves no te!J.ta!e tracks Evt-n Sonny can swim like a fish."
