then. and this was all his epitaph.
jefferson Hope looked wildly round to
see if there was second grave. but
there was no sign of one. Lucy had
been carried back by their terri
bic pursuers to fulfill her original
destiny, by becoming one of the harein
of the elders SOP. As the young fell
low realized the certainty of her fate
and his own powerlessness to prevent
it. he wished that he. too, was lying
with the old farmer in his last silent
resting place.
Again, however. his active spirit
shook off the lethargy which springs
from despair. If there was nothing
else left to him. he could at least de-
vote his life to revenge. With indom-
liable patience and perseverance. Jef-
ferson Hope possessed also power of
sustained vindictiveness, which he may
have learned from the Indians among
whom he had lived. As he stood by
the desolate fire he felt that the only
thing which could assuage his grief
would be thorough and complete retri-
button brought by his own hand upon
his enemies. His strong will and un-
firing energy should. he determined,
be devoted to that one end. With
grim, white face he retraced his steps

he cooked enough to last him for few
days. This he made up into bundle,
and, tired as he was. he set himself to
walk back through the mountains upon
the track of the avenging angels
For FIVE days he toiled. footsore and
weary, through the defiles which he
had already traversed on horseback.
At night he flung himself down among
the rocks and snatched few hours of
sleep. but before daybreak he was al
ways well on his way. On the sixth
day he reached the Eagle canyon. from
which they had commenced their ILL
fated fight. Thence he could look
down upon the home of the Saints.
Worn and exhausted, he leaned upon
his rifle and shook his gaunt hand
fercely at the silent. widespread city
beneath him. As he looked at it he
observed that there were flags in some

such as are wanted from the nursery.
But there are some orchards or scatter
ing trees yet of the native varieties.
and what TO do with these is the ques-
ton II the trees are not healthy and
thrifty they should be removed at once
as the easiest way to dispose of them
If, on the other hand, they are good
vigorous trees, they may be readily
grated to such varieties of fruit as are
wanted When this work is well done
and the trees properly cared for, they
should come TO bearing in few years,
sooner than a newly set tree.
Sometimes there spring up about the
farm scattering trees that are vigorous
and strong. When small these could
be transplanted. and, after they get es-
tabllshed, grated This with small
trees can be done simply by cutting of
below the top and grating the stem at
one operation This is a very good
way.
1t is thought better to graft winter
varieties on trees that also yield winter
fruit. and the same with the yearly
bearing kinds. where this can De de-

grating is required it would De bette,

they had TO travel in Indian file, and so
rough that only practiced riders could
have traversed it at all. Yet. in spite
of all dangers and difficulties. the hearts
of the fuGitives were light within them,
for every step increased the distance
between them and the terrible despot-
ism from which they were flying.
They soon had a proof. however.
that they were still in the jurisdiction
of the Saints. They had reached the
very widest and most desolate portion
of the pass when the girl gave a
startled cry and pointed upward. On
a rock which overlooked the track,
showing out dark and plain against
the sky, there stood solitary sentinel.

During the whole of that day they
struggled on through the defiles, and
by evening they calculated that they
were r.ore than thirty miles from their

could reach. or how soon it was to

of the flight their scanty store of pro-
