By the time she met his eyes they were charged with light; smoky-blu- e eyes they were, the Iris heavily ringed with black, the pupils dilated a little. For the first time It occurred to Joan, looking down with a still heart Into his eyes, that a man might be beautiful. The blood came up from her heart to her face. Her eyes struggled away from his.

She took his hand and her fingers closed around It like the frightened, lonely fingers of a little girl. She came near to him and looked up. Ill be cornin with you, Pierre, she said, Just above her breath. He shot up a full Inch, stiffened, searched her with smoldering eyes, then held her hard against him. Youll not be sorry, Joan Carver, said he gently and put her away from him. Then, unsmiling, he bade hef go in and get her belongings while he got her a horse and told his news to Mrs. Upper. That ride was dreamlike to Joan. Pierre put her In her saddle and she rode after him across the Square and along a road flanked by the ugly houses of the town. Where are we she asked him timidly. He stopped at that, turned, and, resting his hand on the cantle of his saddle, smiled at her for the first time. Dont you savvy the answer to that question, Joan? She shook her head. The smile faded.

Will your father be takln you back? "I wont be goln with him. She was about to pass on. Pierre cast a swift look about the table bent heads and busy hands, eyes cast down, ears, he knew, alert It was a land of few women and of many men. He must leave In the morning early and for months he would not be back. He put out a long, hard hand, caught Joans wrist and gave It a queer, urgent shake, the gesture of an Impatient and beseeching child. "Will you he cornin home with me, gel? asked Pierre hurriedly. She looked at him, her lips apart, and she shook her head. Mauds voice screamed at her from the kitchen door. Pierre let her go. She went on, very white. She did not steep at all that night. Her fathers face, Pierres face, looked at her. In the morning Pierre would be gone. She had heard Maud say that the "queer Landis feller would be makln tracks back to that ranch of his acrost the river. Yes, he would be gone. She might have been going with him. She felt the urgent pressure of his hand on her arm. In her heart. It shook her with such a longing for love, for all the unknown largesse of love, that she cried. The next morning, pale, she came down and went about her work. Pierre was not at breakfast, and she felt a sinking of heart, though she had not known that she had built upon seeing him again.

And he flung himself with a sudden wild, boyish on Whoopee! his pony, gave a clip to Joan's horse and his own, and away they galloped, a pair of young, wild things, out from the town through a straggling street to where the road boldly stretched Itself toward a great land of sagebrush, of buttes humping their backs against the brilliant sky. Down the valley they rode, trotttng, walking, galloping, till, turning westward, they mounted a sharp slope and came up above the plain. Below, In the heart of the long, narrow valley, the river colled and wandered, divided and came together again Into a swift stream, amongst aspen Islands and willow swamps. Beyond this strange, the cottonwoods belonely river-began, and, above them, the pine forests massed themselves and strode up the foothills of the gigantic range, that range of Iron rocks, sharp, thin and brittle where they scraped the sky. At the top of the hill, Pierre rut out his hand and pulled Joan's rein, drawing her to a stop beside him. Over yonders my ranch," said he. Joan looked. There was not a sign e d bility of violence. Two Incidents of this time blazed themselves especially on her memory: the one, her fathers visit, the other, an Irrelevant enough picture until after events threw back a glare upon It. They had been at Pierres ranch for a fortnight before John Carver found them. Then, one morning, as Pierre opened the door to go out to work, Joan saw a thin, red pony tied to the fence and a small figure walking toward the cabin. Pierre, it's father!" she said. And Pierre stopped In his tracks, drew himself up and waited, hands on his cartridge belt. How mean and old and furtive her father lookpd In contrast to this beautiful young husband! Joan was entirely unafraid. She leaned against the side of the door and watched, as silent and unconsulted as any squaw, while the two men settled their property rights In her. So youve took my gel, said John Carver, stopping a foot or two In front of Pierre, his eyes shifting up and down, one long hand fingering Ids lips. Pierre answered courteously.

He was on It and off, galloping madly across the Pierre turned and sagebrush flat. walked Into the house past Joan without a word. She still leaned against the door, hut her head was bent. Presently she went about her housework. Every now and then she shot a wistful look at Pierre. All morning long he sat there, his hands hanging between his knees, hfs eyes full of a brooding trouble. At noon he shook his head, got up, and, still without word or. caress, he strode out and did not come back till dark. Joan suffered heartache and terror. When he came she ran Into his arms. He kissed her, seemed quite himself again, and the strange Interview was never mentioned by either of them. They were silent people, given to feelings and to action rather than to thoughts and words. The other memory was of a certain sunset hour when she came at Pierre's call out to the shed he had built at one side of their cabin. Its open side faced the west, and as Joan cume her shadow went before her and fell across Pierre at work. The dame of the west gave a weird pallor to the flames over which he bent He was whistling and hammering at a long piece of Iron. Joan came and stood beside him. Suddenly he straightened up and held In the air a bar of metal, the shaped end white hot. Joan blinked. Thats our brand, gel, said Pierre. Dont you ferglt It.

And he brought the white Iron close so thnt she felt Its heat on her face and drew back, flinching. He laughed, let It fall, and kissed her. Joan was very glad and proud.
