eyes were bent upon me, and an

That look said to me. Child shall l

visibly ever since coming upon Schlat-
ter and who had declared ne would
never touch him.

him. From other directions came
wagons, too. There plainly had to be
a meeting with the Healer.
Schlatter rode slowly, and all soon
came up 10 US. those behind me riding
fast and those ahead by coming out TO
where we were.
And then we held that meeting out
side of town of which you have heard.
There were over one hundred present,
and Schlatter shook hands with them
all, praying over each.
He talked very little.
Are you Schlatter?"
Il am"
Where are you gOing?"
NOT l.
'The Father knows. Not !"
care you going into New MeXlco?'
'The Father knows.
Shall you fast forty days at Albu-
querque?"
4 think so. How long the Father
only knows"
All this with a serene smile and Sc
raphic impression impossible to depict,
but so sincere that no man has ever
seen it and doubted. Then l noticed for
the first time how beautiful, clean and
well groomed he was, though he could
have made no careful toilet.
We left him then, as the crowd turned
away. 1t was getting dusk and we
wanted to reach town by nightfall.
Schlatter would not come with US.
l could not bear to leave him out there
in the hills alone. It was so heartless.

trying to slip it in his pocket in the con-
fusion which the crowd around him and
the close quarters brought about. But
he took it out of his pocket and threw
it upon the ground, frcwning at US.
Schlatter has a hatred Of money and
mOney-getters. Talking of il after
wards and remembering his scathing
look. so in contrast TO his gentleness,
we thought he might fear TO touch
money mainly because of the great
harm which would be done the cause if
it were told that he took pay for his
cures.
AS we rode away l turned and looked
back at him, not once but many times.
The head of the white horse was turned
southwark Upon his back sat Schlatcer,
with upturned face and hair floating
down MS collar. He wore no coat. He
seemed warm, though the wind began
to be very sharp, and in the last glimpse
got of him ne had his hat swinging by
his side. while his head lay back so that
he looked into the deepest of the clouds.
Schlatter, in his fast, will be an inter-
esting figure for the touch Of The super
natural hangs around him, but SShlal-
ter upon the trail, as I found him, was
something to make others as super
natural as himself.

his head, was not tossed by the wind,
and his hat stayed on when we were all
holding ours with head bent down TO
help.
We thought the Healer would never

the white horse and slid of his back.

horse free. and dropped upon his knees

Then l rode up again, drawing my
handkerchief from my pocket. 1t was

Schlatter took it, held it a minute in
both hands. and gave it back to me.

was less at his ease than formerly. Once
he looked over his shoulder and urged
his horse forward. We looked back and
saw in the distance some faint specks.
