The water had indeed swept all be-
fore it, and, rushing down the hill in
torrent, had overlooked the little
stream that had often been admired
by Susie.
The stars are coming out. That
ought TO cheer me"
With her torn and mud-stained gar
ments, Sue looked very unlike the lit
tie maid whose brilliant color and
laughter-loving eyes had made sad hav-

With difficulty she staggered to her
feet. only TO fall PROSTATE again.
On her hands and knees she crept to
a pool and quenched her thirst and
bathed her throbbing temples.
Refreshed once more, she attempted
10 stand.
Thank God, I am safely down the
hill. Only TO cross the street, and then

AS she neared the stream her heart
sank within her.
Il tell you, Tom Alden, it is no use
to go on further. Susie has been caught
in the storm and has stopped some
where all night"
There is some one trying to ford the
stream. Back. Sue, back Do not ad-
vance another step. There. all danger

Nonsense"
You will drive me mad if you do
not go at once to his aid Did you not
hear that Elton appeared against a
man named Griff for sheep-stealing?
He it is who has vowed to be reveng-

Down came a heavy blow on the as
sassins head which sent him Keeling.
Taken so completely by surprise, it
was easy to overpower both Griff and
his confederate.
A second time did George Elton have
to appear against Griff.
When the latter had received his SEN
tence Of Imprisonment for life his
looks of deadly hatred rested on Elton,
but they were powerless to harm.
The snow covered the earth with its
mantle Of white before Susie was able
to resume her duties.
The excitement and exposure of that
eventful night had been too great for
even her robust frame.
I say. Sue, it is too bad to see you
