journey made by this intrepid man was
in 1882, when he went to Kentucky
from Red River and purchased l,400
sheep for Sslkirk colonists. His route
was through the hostile Sioux country,
but he accomplished the journey
In safety by making treaties with
different TRIES. When he reached the
Red river again he had less than 800 OF
his original large flock. He was one of
the class whose devotion to duty, ready
obedience to superior authority and alb
negation OF self, where the interests of
the service were concerned, preserved
the peace In Rupert's land and made
the Saskatchewan trail as safe az O
street in London, when to the south OF

the audience night after night. Still
he knew he could act. lie felt it in his
soul, and he would prove it to the
whole world some day. He was born
with a silver spoon in his mouth, and
it made little difference if the governor
had cast him Off when he left college
to go on the stage, for he knew his
luck would come back to him in time.
He was always thinking Of her. He
saw her fresh oval face in the blue-gray
rings of his cigarette smoke; the smell
of roses was like the perfume of her
breath; her eyes looked at him from
the pansies on every corner fowe r.
stand. Perhaps this was because she
was one of the band of wood nymphs
who came out in pink and white to
strew flowers for the feet of the prima
donna to crush. She should have been
a prima donna herself; he had heard
her sing, and he knew. Wait till his
fortune came back to him.

people of the ''legit" He knew that
curly shock of yellow hair was not it's
natural color, and her eyelids were
penciled. but she had teeth like ivory
and her laugh thrilled him away down
into his shoes. It was only when the
professional ventriloquist, desiring the
butter. made the chandelier squeak,
'.Shoye the grease, Coots," that he be-
came aware he was staring at her and
| not eating a mouthful. He hated the
ventriloquist; for that manipulation of
vocalization was the one who had
given him the nickname Of "Coots,"
and now every body in the house called
him that-even she called him that
But she was divine!
The "Johnnies" gathered thickly
about the stage door every night to see
the chorus girls come out; but he knew
she hated the insipid tops, for he had
heard her say so, aud she never paid
any attention to them. She usually got
off first, and left the theater as soon as
possible, and he had not yet commanded
sufficient courage to tell her he would
take her safely to the boarding house
if she would wait. But one night she
was delayed, and he was close behind
her when she left the theater.
There was the usual throng outside
the stage door. and one of them spoke
to her. He had been drinking, and he
placed himself in her path, offering his
arm and proposing to call a cab. She

tried to pass him, but he caught at her
arm. The next instant he lay fiat on
his back, and Coots was walking away
with her.
.Oh, 1 thank you, Cootsv' she said,
with a catchy little laugh that was like
the gurgle of a brook to him. "That
cad has bothered me for a week. Per-
haps he'll keep away now he has got
swiped."
He did not mind the slang; he ex-
pected 1t. He had found everybody
talked slang at the boarding house, and
it sounded rather sweet and "chic"
from her lips, when he would have
thought it coarse from some other
| woman.
"I'm almost ashamed to think /
struck him so hard" he said; but my
blood boiled when / saw him put his

They did not take a ear. She said
she had as lief walk, as 1t would save
the fare; and Coots vas sure he had
much rather walk rs long as she wan
at his side.
Tell me. Coots-how did you ever
happen to get down to this?" she
asked.
Then he told her all about it, and she
called him a foolish fellow. but he did
not agree with her.
Mother sends me money every now
and then, without the governor know
ing it," he said. "1ll get along all
right until I find an opening and do
something to give me a foothold."
Coots never forgot that walk down
Broadway and the warm pressure given
his fingers by her plump little hand
when they reached the clearinghouse.
That night she was in all his dreams.

obtained money to pay his board was
something Of a mystery, but it was no
