Jim, and. blushing and trembling, he
went tn her ronm.
She was lying on a couch, looking
more beautiful than he had ever seen
her before.
She thanked him profuseIy for her
rescue, and showed, not only by Ian
guage. but by her looks, how truly
grateful she was.
How the deacon ever came to say it
no one could surmise. and even he could
never account for such boldness and
audaclty.
"Miss Newell" he said, ito do you a
service is glorious reward of itself.
To save your life, believe me, is privi-
lege worth living for"
Then. blushlng at his own temerlty,
he arose TO leave the room, but she held
out her hand To check him.
Soon 1t became noised about that the
deacon and Miss Newell were TO be
! married III a few days, and that the
| deacon WAS to become haif-owner of
| the ranch.
! This information was not pleasant to
AnsUn and Ab, but. bitter as il was,
they had To swallow it.
Il can leil you how it came about,
said OLD Barton. "She's girl of sense
and it Is not what man says or the
i way he looks that takes with her, but
! it's the way lie does. Jim won her 10y
his action, wnlcn appealed to her heart
| WiIlJe you chaps tried 10 win her by youl
| dress. Ii it's clothes a girl wants tC
marry, she can beat taking you fellows
all hollow by going TO a clothing slort
ana buying SUIT"
| blamed Ii l don't believe she could, .
