There were tears in the eyes of the
big men as they lifted the girls IN their
arms, and started home. They had
not expected TO find them alive.
Before they went TO sleep, the thrill
ing story of Martha's bravery had been
fully told, and to.it had been added the
news OF Scylla's strange recovery,
The next day the doctor was called

that such things had happened before.
The great mental excitement of the
stampede had wrought what seemed
miracle
Her recovery after that was rapid.
When John and Martha went North
the next winter, Scylla went with
them. and was able To walk about al
most as easily as Martha herself.
A few days after the stampede, the
bruised body of poor Texas was found
where he had been trampled 10 death
by the herd. What was left of the To-
co.weed that had wrought bis ruin was
burned. and the Northern college pro-
fessor is still without his specimens.
