PRETTY SOON AND BY.AND.eY.

Pretty Soon and BY and By
Call us day by day;
They are cunning, they are shy.
Stealing time away:
Comes grave Opportunity
Calling to US: Rise,
Grid yourselves and follow me
Out where glory lies;'
But we linger, listening
While the precious moments fly
To the Turing song they sing,
Pretty Soon and BY and BY.
There are duties we have set
Four ourselves to do;
Most of mine are waiting yet,
How is it with you?
There are kindly acts we mean
To perform some day,
There are stains that we shall clean
From our hearts away,
But we linger, 10th to go,
And we listen, you and I,
To their grooming soft and low,
Pretty Soon and BY and By.
Pretty Soon and By and By
Seldom help to roll
Back distractions hard and high
That shut out the goal:
They are sirens singing where
Failures wasting time,
They have faces that are fair,
But their feet are slime!
All around them bleaching bones
OF their foolish victims lie
Woe is in their Turing tones,
Pretty Soon and BY and BY.

went in saddle, sending his own team
over the range of the Medicine Bow

sender, ignorant, possibly, of the post

if, as probable, it was known to him.
The good old doctor himself had
bundled the grateful lad and sent a
special hospital attendant with him.
Mrs. Dade and her devoted allies up
the row had filled with goodies a
wonderful luncheon basket, while
Mrs. Hay had sent stores of wine for
the use of both invalids, and had
come down herself to see the start,
for, without word indicative of re-
proof, the general had hidden Flint
remove the blockade, simply saying
he would assume all responsibility,
both for Mrs. Hay and the young In
dian girl, given refuge under the
traders roof until the coming of her
own people still out with Stabber's
band. Flint could not fathom it. He
could only obey.
And now, with the general gone and
Beverly Field away, with Hay home
and secluded by orders from all ques,
tioning or other extraneous worry,
with the wounded soldiers safely
trundled into hospital, garrison inter

Flint's sole Sioux captive, who was
housed, said the much Intercepted
domestic, in Mrs. Hays own room in
stead of Miss Flowers, while the lady
of the house, when she slept at all,
occupied sofa near her husbands
bedside.
Then came the tidings that Blake,
with the prisoners from No Wood
Creek and Bear Cliff was close at
hand, and everybody looked with
eager eyes for the coming across the
snowy prairie of that homeward-
bound convoy-that big village of the
Sioux, with its distinguished captives,
wounded and unwounded; one of the
former, the young sub-chief Eagle
Wing, alias Moreau-one of the latter
self-constituted martyr, since she
was under no official restraint-Nan-
cite Flower, lowering ever about the
litter bearing that sullen and still de-
faint brave, whose side she refused to
leave.
Not until they reached Fort
Frayne; not until the surgeon, after
careful examination, declared there
was no need of taking Moreau into
hospital-no reason why he should
not be confined in the prison room of
the guardhouse-were they able to
induce the silent, almost desperate
girl to return to her aunt. Not until
Nanette realized that her warrior
was to be housed within wooden walls

CHAPTER XX.-CoNr1NuEp.

"Look out for this man, corporate"
he called, to shouting young troop
err See that no harm comes to him."
Then quickly he ran on to the huddle
of travels. Something assured him
she could not be far away. The stout
drag litter held another young war
rior, sullen and speechless like the
foremost The next bore desper-
ately wounded brave whose bloodless
lips were compressed in agony and
dumb as those abf the dead. About
these covered, shivering, and whim-
pering, two of three terror-s tricken
squaws, one of them with round
eyed papoose staring at her back.
A pony lay struggling in the snow
close by. Half dozen rough soldier
hands were dragging stricken rider
from underneath. Half dozen more
were striving to control the wild
plungings of another mettlesome
beast, whose rider, sitting firmly
astride, dashed first at his quivering
flank and then at the fur gauntleted
hands-even at the laughing, beard
ed faces-sure sign of another squaw,
and game one. Far out to the front
the crackle of carbine and rifle told
that Webb was driving the scattered
braves before him-that the comrade
squadron was coming their way-that
Bear Cliff had been sought by the
Sioux in vain-that Indian wiles and
strategy, Indian pluck and staying
power, all had more than met their
match. Whatever the fate of Lame
VOLTS fighting force, now pressed by
Henry's column, far in the southwark
hills, here in sight of the broad Big
Horn valley, the white chief had
struck vital blow. Village, villagers,
wounded and prisoners were all the
spoil of the hated soldiery. Here at
the scene of Blake's minor affair
there appeared still in saddle just one
undaunted, unconquered amazon
whose black eyes flashed through the
wooden hood that hid the rest of
ner face, whose lips had uttered as
yet no sound, but from whom two
soldiers recoiled at the cry of a third.
"Look at the hand of her, fellers!
It's whittier than mine!''
CHATS all right, Lanigan," an
swered the jovial voice of the leader
they loved and laughed with. "Hold
that pony steady. Now, by your la
dyship's leave" and two long sinewy
arms went circling about the shrink
ing riders waist, and struggling
form was lifted straightway out of
the saddle and deposited, not too
gracefully, on it's moccasined feet.
1--WE will remove this one impediment
to your Speech" continued Blake,
whereat the muffling worsted was
swiftly unwound, "and then we will
listen to our need of thanks. All, no
wonder you did not need side-sad-
die that night at Frayne. You ride
admirably extraordinarily COM
pliments, Mademoiselle LaFleur-or
should l say-Madame Moreau.'
For all answer Blake received one
quick, singing slap in the face from
that 1nittenless little right hand.

whence she would be excluded, could
Mrs. Hay, devoted to the last, per-
suade the girl to reoccupy her old
room and to resume the dress of
civilization. Barring that worsted
hood, she was habited like a chief
tain's daughter, in gaily beaded and
embroidered garments, when recap
tured by Blake's command. Once
within the traders door, she had shut
herself in her old room, the second
floor front, refusing to see anybody
from outside the house, unless she
could be permitted to receive visits
from the captive Sioux, and this the
major, fintily, forebade. 1t was
nightfall when the litter-bearers
reached the post, Hays rejoicing
mules braying unmelodious ecstacy at
sight of their old stable. it was dark
when the wounded chief was borne
into the guard-house, uttering not a
sound, and Nanette was led within
the traders door, yet some one had
managed to see her face, for the story
went all over the wondering POST that

sided, would neither affirm nor deny
"She would neither speak to me nor
harken," said he, whimsically. "The
only thing she showed was teeth and
temper"
Two days after the safe Judgment
OF Eagle Wing behind the bars, the
telegrams were coming by dozens,
and one week after that deserved in

mild bewilderment the majors or

that are eminently suitable, and there
fore becoming. Such healthy, outdoor
lives as those which are led by the
typical American school girls of to-day
would be utterly out of the question if
they We're the miserable victims of tight
lacing, by night and by day, as some
people nowadays would have us believe.
A certain amount of support in the
way of corset, preferably one which is
arranged with shoulder straps, is I'M
doubtedly advantageous in the case of
growing girl, but anything in the way
of pulling-in at the waist should be most
carefully avoided, since, quite apart
from any consideration of the injury
done by compression to the respiratory
organs, Fashion has decided in favor of
straight and natural figure, rather
than nipped-in waist, so that absolutely
nothing is gained by this foolish habit
Of tight lacing. At the same time, there
is no need at all for a girl to allow her
figure to be slovenly or untidy in appear
ance for she can be perfectly neat and
trim, and yet allow herself ample
breathing space.
And this brings me to the considera-
ton of one of our sketches, wherein may
be seen smart afternoon frock for a
miss, very chic and up to date, and yet
emphatically graceful and comfortable,
since there is nothing about it to impede
the wearer's movements in the least de-
gree. The material chosen is one of
those fine soft cashmeres or woollen IA
brics Of the zibeline kind, and which
are really ideal fabrics for young girls

most of the soldiers families had
gone to the dance; all of the younger
children were asleep; even the dogs
were still, and so, when at ten o'clock
Esther tiptoed from the children's
bedside and stood under the star
light, the murmur of the Platte was
the only sound that reached her ears
until away over at the southwest
gate the night guards began the
longdrawn heralding of the hour.
'Ten o'clock and all's well" it went
from post to post along the west and
northward front, but when Number
Six, at the quartermaster' store
house near the southeast corner,
should have taken up the cry where
it was dropped by Number Five, afar
over near the flagstaff, there was
unaccountable silence. Six did not
utter sound.
Locking up from the level of "Suds-
town." as it had earlier been named,
Esther could see the black hulk Of
the storehouse close to the edge of
the plateau. Between its westward
gable end and the porch of the his
pital lay some so yards of open space,

and are then drawn in to fit the waist In
front by cunning arrangement of small
straps and buckles in fire,er kind Of
leather.
Great variety is permissible just now
in the matter of millinery and there are
many neat hats, both in hard and in soft
felt, which are specially suitable for
girls. The three-cornered marquise
shapes in felt are very generally becom-
ing, and need little in the way of trim
ming beyond binding of velvet or silk
braid along the edge of the brim, and
a smart cockade rosette on one side, sur
mounted by brush aigrette.
But to turn for moment from the
modes for girls of school age to the de-
butants gowned inthe best that papa can
afford, and making her bow to the social
world at evening entertainments, let us
look at the dainty evening coat of fig
ured silk. The picture tells the story Of
this dainty garment better than words
can, but we can say that it is trimmed
with lace ruching and chiffon roses and
finished with velvet and zibeline tails.
