Trultt stood his ting in a corner and led her to the door, and, as all eyes followed him, George looked and saw I.ydia Cranston and Kitty Cosby standing u few feet from him. They had heard all. In Lydia's eyes great tears stood, and in her face shone a kindling light upon which her very soul seemed to breathe. Covered with emburassmeut, Buckley went to them. "I'm very sorry," ho begaffc Lydin put up her gloved hand and stopped hlin. ' <* ' "Don't.don't!" she said gently, almost reverently, as she looked straight Into his eyes. "Don't!" He had not been introduced to her companion, and the fact seemed to have escaped her. The three walked to the door. "I am Miss Cosby, Mr. Buckley," Kitty said sweetly. "Lydin has completely forgotten that we don't know each other." "I am delighted to meet you," he faltered, red in the face. "This is a rather rough and tumble camp meeting reception to offer you the first time you honor the old warehouse with your presence, Miss Cosby," he managed to get out, "but we are an emotional people and"? "Hush!" suddenly exclaimed I.ydia, facing him with her. great, wonderinsr eyes. "Don't Rpeak lightly of that." Then her voice sank Into ineffable sweetness. "Show me, Mr Buckley, where It happened. I mean from which direction did the mob come, and is tliis the door where the poor boy? where you stood?this here?" George grew redder; lie essayed a light lnugh, but she was persistent. She laid her hands on his arm. "Tell me," she urged, "is this the very spot?" "That's right, miss," said Trultt, coming up.

"I want you to know Kitty." Buckley turned back to the office, angry with himself, the Truitts and everything pertaining to the recent happening. "Oh. what an ass I made of myself," , i he thought?"what a deplorable, help- j ; less ass!" He had just seated himself at his j desk when Jeff Truitt caiue in. j "George," he said, "Kennor lias offered ' me a job at the compress, and"? "Well"?George looked up from his work, with n frown?"that's all right. I guess."

"I wouldn't 'a' done i It fer the world, hut"? "You didn't make nie mad. old hoy," i said George, coming up, with a smile. ' i "I was worried about a calculation I j ; was making.

George was at his desk, a dry ' 1 pen in his hand, the Hush still on his ! face. "I met Bob Ilanks uptown ( i awhile ago." Kcnner observed. George did not seem to hear. 1 "He's put on a new two horse delivery wagon, painted up with ids sign 1 : on it. Jest like city wagons." i j Buckley was still inattentive. "By the way. the little devil told me 1 he was goin' to let up on that school- < girl racket o' ids. Tie told me of ids 1 own accord, so I reckon my talk did i some good t'other night." ! "I suppose it did," said Buckley, with 1 . a start, and lie went to work. Kenner i stood watching him for several min- , utes.

"I'm going to pay my board while j I'm with you," said the girl, with mock seriousness.
