A lamp burned on a rudely constructed set of drawers near the window, and a wood fire blazed redly in a stone freplace opposite, the yellow and red lights Dlending in a pecullar glow of color. Under this radiance were revealed the rough log walls plastered with yellow clay, and hung about with the, ski of wild animals, a roughly made table, bare except for a book lying upon it, and a few ordinary appearing boxes, evidently-utilized-as- seats, together , door, partially open, apparently Jeading into a second room. That was jall, except the woman. Keith must have perceived all these in that first hurried. glance, for they iwere ever after closely associated to- jgether in his mind, yet at the momen he possessed no clear thought of any: thing except her. She stood directly Ibebind the table, where she must have jsprung hastily at the first sound of thelr approach, alutching at the rude jmantel above the fireplace, and staring itoward him, her face white, her breath coming in sobs. At first he thought the vision a dream, a delir um born from his long struggle; he could not conceive the possibility of such pres- ence in this lonely place, and stagger- ling to his feet, gazed widly, dumbly jat-the slender, gray clad figure, the al- most girlish face under the shag wing dark hair, cting the marvellous iyision to vanish. Surely this could jnot be real A woman, and such a fwoman as this here, and alone, of all places He staggered from weakn almost terror, and grasped the table to hold himself erect.
