SCIENCE AND HEALTH

That mental health depends upon a sound
body is a truism. But how many really
understand the meaning of this? How can
the body affect what is so usually regarded
as its antithesis mind. How deeply Ingram
ed Is the idea that these are inherently in
separable can be readily understood when
even Huxley, emancipated he was from
the thraldom of authority, says in one of
his essays: There is proof that any
state of consciousness is the cause of
any change In the motion of matter Of the
organism. If these positions Che alludes to
the arguments he has just used with regard
to the mental phenomena of animals) are
well based it follows that our mental con-
ditions are simply the symbols in conscious
ness of the changes which take place auto
matically in the organism; and that to take
an extreme illustra ton, the feeling We call
but the symbol of that state of brain which
is the immediate cause of that act"
Huxley was a very great man and had
wonderful acumen and grasp of truth; but
since his day new truths have been discov-
cred and an Ineligible monism has replac-
ed our former confused notions of any fun
damental distinction between body and
mind
Between manifestations readily discern
ible by physical instruments of precision
and the mental action which are their ac-
compartment and sequel all admit the con-
nection. But when causation is claimed for
these phenomena, the unseemly spectacle
is presented of men who call themselves
reasonable, vainly wriggling to avoid the
conclusion that a sequence which inyaria-
bly, accompanies and often precedes a phe-
nomenon, is casually connected Herewith,
because the unity of the two is not in con-
formity with early prejudice

CHAPTER VI.


Rays gallant half hundred. as has been
said took the route for the north at break
OF day. Before them spread the open
prairie. apparently level and unbroken for
full five miles to the front and either flank,
the distant slopes and ridges bounding the
level expanse growing more distinct with
every moment, and presently lighting up in
exulting radiance in response to the rosy
blushss of the eastward sky. Scorning the
dusty stage road. the troop commander
pointed TO distant height just visible
against the northward horizon. bade the
leading guide march straight on that: then
gave the order Right by twos," that he
mighi the more readily note the gait and
condition OF every horse and the bearing
and equipment OF his rider. There was still
time to weed out weaklings of either class
should any such there be. Riding slowly
along the left flank, one after another. he
carefully scanned every man and mount
in his little detachment, then. at quicker
pace. passed around to the eastward side
of the column, and as critically, carefully
studied them from that point of-view. A
light OF quiet satisfaction shone in his fine
dark eyes as he finished for, next to his
wife and children. that troop was Rays

Scalped the sheriff'S posse that had shot
two of their young braves who had availed
themselves of a purposely given chance to
escape, and then in their undiscriminating
zeal the Sioux had opened fire from am
bush on Plodder's hunting parties and the
choppers at the wood camp, who defended
themselves as best they could, to the end
that more men, red and white, were killed
The Indians rallied in force and closed in
about Fort Beecher, driving the survivors
to shelter within its guarded lines and

called for volunteers to bear dispatches to
Major Webb at Frayne. and Pat Kennedy
with half dozen brave lads, had promptly
stepped forward. Kennedy had managed to
slip through the eneircling Sioux by night,
and almost desperate ride. Then Ray was
ordered forth, first to raise the siege at the
stage station then, either to hold that inn
portant relay ranch or go on to reinforce
Plodder as his judgment and the situation
might dictate.
He knew enough of the stout adobe walls
OF the corral on the Dry Fork, and of the
grit of the few defenders, to feel reasonably
sure that, with ammunition, provisions and
water IN plenty, they could easily hold out
a week If need be against the Sioux, SO long
as they fought on the defensive and the
Indians were not strongly reinforced. He
reasoned that Stabber and his people were
probably gone to strengthen the attack, and
that having an hours start at least, and
riding faster they would get there some
what ahead of him. But one Of his old ser
geants. a veteran Of twenty years In the
cavalry, was now stationmaster on the Dry
Fork, and all the Sioux from the Platte to
Paradise couldn't stampede old Jim Kelly.
Many a forced march had Ray made in the
past, and well he knew that the surest way
to bring his horses into action. strong and
sound at the finish. was to move "slow and
steady" at the start. to move at the walk
until the horses were calm and quiet was
his rule. Then on this bright September
day would come the alternating trot and
iope. with brief halts to reset saddles; then.

and. conscious of her intuitive aversion, she
would utter no word that might later prove
unjust. Oddly enough, that instructive aver
sion was shared by her closest friend and
neighbor, Mrs. Blake; but as yet the extent
of their condemnation had found vent only
in the half whimsical half petulant ex-
preston on part of the younger lady

forth without ever asking or knowing why
and so. unknowing. was ill-prepared to
grapple with the problem set before him.
1t Is easier to stem torrent with shingle
than convince a lover that his idol is a
shrew.
Without word Of reply Field refined out
of column, glanced along the double file Of
his platoon, nodded a signal Fall OUT to
Sergeant Scott and the men nearest him at
the front. merely said, Advance guard"
and then proceeded to choose his corporals
and men for fankers. No need to tell Scott
what to do! He had been leading scouts in
Arizona long ere Field had even dreamed of
West Point. In five minutes, riding at easy
lope. carbines advanced, three little parties
OF four troopers each were spreading far
out to the front and flank, guarding the lit
tie column against the possibility OF sudden
assault from hidden foe. Here upon the
level prairie one would think such precau-
ton needless, but every acre OF the surface
was scanned land quilted by twisting little
water courses, dry as a chip at the moment
and some Of them so deep as to afford cover
even for the biggest pony of the wild war
riors Of the plains. Then to the front. the
barrier ridges streaked with deep winding
ravines, were now billowing against the
northward sky, and once among those tam
gled land waves no chances could be taken
now that it was known that the Sioux had
declared for war. and that Stabber's band
was out to Join their red brethren in the oft
recurring outbreak. Until their lands were
criss-crossed by the railways and their
mountain haunts re-echoed to the scream Of
the iron horse next to nothing would start
an Indian war. It took so long to reach the
scene with troops In sufficient numbers to
command their respect.
And at this moment the situation was
grave In the extreme. There had been bad
blood and frequent collision between the
cattlemen. herders. ''hustlers'-especially
hustlers and the hunting parties Of the
Sioux and the Northern Cheyenne. who

There had been aggression on both sides,
then bloodshed.. then attempts on part Of
frontier sheri6s to arrest accused or
suspected red men. and equally deter
