to kiss Jane as he leaned over the edge
Of the seat. Jakey choked down chuckle
and SUNK down to escape being detect

though--you bet exclaimed Henry,
drawing Jane still clossr to his side.

bitthe end off chunk of tobacco, to
give himself an air Of uncoucern: and
then pulled Jane up into his lap. Jakey
stuffed the brim Of his hat into his
mouth, and braced himself against the
side Of the box. 20, amt we just old

about her back with his hand. 1.-The

folded his other arm around her. letting
the horse pick its own road. kiss me,

as Jakey dropped out of the wagon. and
Jane slid down into her seat. Jakey
hollered "Geod-bye, my heifer,' as he
scrambled towards the sidewalk, but
Henry overlook him and rough hand
stayed his course. "You've been listen

legs into knot as the blacksnake twin

wagon and heard me talk to Jane, eh?"
and the blacksnake again blistered ia
keys legs Henry went back to the
wagon, looking hurt, and said: II don't

stood rubbing his legs, he saw him again
