With considerable see.sawing the
horses strained on the ropes and the
little cabin, which had been quietly
wound round and round with the
strong rawhide lariats, followed the
party with iolting. humping, rasping
sound over the level sod. They stopped
and Grace went out.
"We're going to get you on your own
land for sure to begin the New Year
with" remarked Sweet, and TN idea of
what it all meant broke on her mind.
But she was more intent on studying
the strangers face half revealed in the
moonlight She thanked them, and
then it was Japhet's turn to be mysti-
fed. He came closer, holding out his
hand.
Grace" he calculated, doubtfully,
els it really you?"
"Japhet!" she answered, taking the
hard brown hand in both her slender
white ones.
Come, you folks, don't spoon there
when there's work to do" called out
Sun1ower Jones. 1--WE amt got to the
line yet"
But the leaders work was done for
that night. He withdrew with his
companion to one side and let the set
tiers go on.
Another pull and yet another was
necessary before the boundary line
was passed beyond all question. Then
the lariats were hung in coils on the
saddles and the visitors prepared to
leave.
Grace and Jnphet had been talking
eagerly. He had told her of rumor
of her marriage which had come to him
among the hills of Colorado and she
had whispered something about ''wait-
ing so long iscouraged-home broken
rp-trying the west-my claim" Then
he had shyly replied: I'VE will carry
out the old contract" and she an
swered with blush.
% am sorry, gentlemen, that can
not return your kindness even by n cup
of Coffee" said she. aloud, "but you
see that the ride you have given my
house has shaken down the stovepipe."
"But I'll tell you what Wen do" pat
in Japhet; ''come back here at noon to-
day (for it's nearly morning) and you
cannot only have some coffee, but you
can see us two married. We're going
to begin the year together"
Then, while Grace fed to the house,
he briefly explained the situation, and
later rode away with his comrades.
1t was a merry wedding party that
gathered eight hours later IN the little
cabin, and when the guests departed.
this time leaving Japhet and Grace to-
gether, they unanimously agreed that
their new neighbor had secured de-
cidedly the best and happiest return Of
the settlements New Year.

him from his revery.
Creeping to the window, he pulled
aside the cheap curtain and saw two
rough-loolSing men on horseback, wa
tering their horses at the pump. They
wore wide brimmed, hats and big spurs
glistened on their heels.
They were quite near, and though
there was n crisp breeze he could hear

in her work on the claim and satisfied
that she had competence ahead, she
still wore smiling countenance in
spite of the somewhat somber charac-
ter of her cogitations.
And when she slept IL was with the
gloom all swept away and happy
dreams making life ideal and existence
an unalloyed pleasure.
Suddenly she was awakened by q
grating, grinding noise and feeling OF
motion.
What is it?' she gasped, half doubt

or not.
Then as consciousness came to her
more fully she exclaimed: 'lts-an--

1t really seemed the most plausible
explanation.
But the motion did not stop. All the
time she could feel that she was NOV

Then she heard voices outside and in
an instant shc had thrown On dress

curtain. She gazed OH a remarkable

Twenty horses stood in an irregular
mass before the house. On each horse

To thee, New Year. with questioning gaze
Our vision oft Is turned;
But oil within the mystic maze
Is wrapped In hopes alluring haze,
And We are still unlearncd-
Unlearned OF all that lies within
Thy futures secret hold,
Uncertain what we may begin,
So swift the whirl, so loud the din
or life, on seconds rolled
And yet hope in thee, New Year,
With upward leaning trust;
The promise that in thee / rear
Is builded iirm-apart from feaB
And doubting's cankered rust.
And every month shall add share
Unto gentler mood,
And pride that In the past lay bare
Shall walk in vestment meek as fair,
In paths OF highest good.
Then shall the heart that hath its mate
To loveliest themes aspire;
Not angels pure from Heavens own gate
On sunless care in love may witt
Win tenuercr desire.
In thee, New Year, these trusts Of mine
Shall end as seemeth best;

Beholds the light OF Joy In thine,
And all beyond is rest
