But ermilk in the saloon Is becom-
ing a popular beverage A few years
ago it was never heard of at the bar.
Now, all OF the fellows who have quit

cut out drinking booze, are regular

The causes Of summer catarrh are
first, chronic catarrh; second, derange-
ments Of the stomach and liver; third,
impure blood.
Such being the case anyone who
knows anything whatever about the
operations OF Peruna can understand
why this remedy is a permanent cure
for summer catarrh. II eradicates
chronic catarrh from the system, invig-
crates the stomach and liver, cleanses
the blood of all impurities, and thers-
fore permanently cures by removing the
cause,--a host OF maladies peculiar TO
hot weatherS The cause being removed
the symptoms disappear of themselves.

But after two days search he was
unable to procure a single horse, SO
great was the demand. His gold was
running low besides, and at last he
dared not wait any longer. Each man
took as much provisions as he could
carry on his back, and, early one morn
ing, they started over the trail, armed
with rifles and revolvers.
When they had proceeded few miles
on their way, Bowers said:

When Hank Bowers read the derisive
message which lie had found in one of
the dummy bags Of gold his rage was
frightful. Dashing his clencAed fist
AGAINST his head like a mailman. no
fairly screamed:
TOO smart for me! Wen see! I'll
have my revenge il l live! Your gold
isn't safe in Dyea yet, my beauties, an
you needn't crow
Then he relapsed into sullen silence
and scarcely spoke TO Rider again that
night. In the morning he made no ref
erence TO the events of the night be-
fore, but led the way toward Dyea as
rapidly as his horse could carry him,
his head dropped, while Rider was in
wardly vowing TO part company with
him as soon as they reached the mining
camp.
They met no one on the way, and
without accident reached Dyea late one
evening. Then Rider remembered that
he had no funds. He could not leave his
companion on That account, and while
he was hesitating how to extricate him
self from the dilemma Bowers invited
him to drink at the first bar.
That settled it. The strong liquor
wrought n marvellous change in his
cowardly heart, and soon both he and
his companion were oblivious to every
thing but the fact that they had money
and liquor was to be had for the. price.
knowing his weakness, however,
Bowers had taken care to place his
dust in safe keeping, retaining only
enough for the enjoy ment of his favor
lite dissipation.
From one resort TO another they made
their way, drinking, fighting. maudlin
and quarrelsome by turns, until they
both were unceremoniously showed in

utterly unconscious of their surround
ings.
The next day they continued their de-
bauch. but Bowers was careful to carry
only enough dust to pay his way from
day to day. After the first night he
kept his head marvelously, considering
the amount of fiery liquor he absorbed,
while Rider was no sooner sober than
he overdrank again.
Their days were n repetition of each
other, and several times they narrow
ly escaped arrest by the vigilance com
mittee. Then something happened which
might have been expected among such
a collection of adventures.
A reckless character, who had been at
the camp long enough to spend his last
dollar and DISPOSE of his outfit for

was no rush, because all who came
found gold so plenty that they remained,
and at the end of three weeks there
were not over threescore men on the
ground.
1t was now time for Dick Taylor to
return, and our friends began TO be
anxious about him. Their fears were
groundless, however, for one afternoon
he made his appearance, mounted on a
horse and leading half dozen others.
With him were two well-dressed stran-
gers, who looked keenly about them as
they rode down the valley.
After greeting his friends, he intro
duced the strangers to the party and
said:
II have brought these gentlemen out
to look at our claims. They represent a
syndicate of rich capitalists"
lie then pointed out the exact location
of the claims, after which he took the
men to the cave and showed them the
bags of gold.
1--WE want to sell out the whole bust
ness" he said, bluntly. There's what
we have taken out. We haven't begun
10 dig one-quarter of the claims. Take
a look round and make us an offer"
''Wait a moment" said Avery, step
ping forward with the piece of quartz
they had split open. "See here, Dick,

GAIL right. Now we'll git some sleep
an to-morrer we'll see if thar's any
bosses ter be got. If / hadn't been a
chump I'd held on ter what brought
in with me when / come"
On the following day, however, he
took a different view of the matter. 1t
would be impossible to start off on the
trip without arousing the suspicious of
Obed Rider, and Bowers decided that he
must be of the party.
"He's just the chap ter split on us IL

thar was any fuss here over II. ]

most of the time, he determined to re-
lieve them of some of the wealth they
were spending so recklessly.
A few inquiries informed him where
Bowers had deposited his source of sup
plies, and he watched until the miner
went for fresh portion one evening.
Rider was helplessly intoxicated, and
Bowers had been INDUCING freely him
self. lie placed little pouch contain
ing about $500 in dust in his pocket,
and reeled out in the darkness without
the faintest thought of danger.
A heavy blow behind the ear suddenly
sent him 10 his knees, and a pair of
strong hands grasped his throat at the
same moment, but the owner had no
easy task to accomplish his object. The
realization Of his danger fully sobered
Bowers, and with stifled curse he tore
the grip from his throat and gained his
feet by main strength.
II was too dark TO see his assailant,
but Hank Bowers was no coward, and
instead of attempting to flee or call for
help, he grappled silently with the
would-be robber.
1t did not last long. Once his arms
were about his enemy, Bowers was
master Of the situation. Inch by inch
he bent the other back until human
endurance could bear no more, and
with a groan the mans muscles relaxed
and he fell heavily with Bowers on
top Of him.
