Here was the bare chance of escape.
The boys heard the enemy yelling,
and looking back, saw them spread
faniike upon the bluff behind. Whether
they fled up or down, they knew the
Pawnees would sweep this valley, d.
viding their forces without an in
stant's delay.
The two plunged into the fog, call
ing to each other to know what would
be best to do. 1t was Yellow Sun
who decided.
Halfway across the valley they
turned up the stream, then flung them
selves off their ponies. To don the
Pawnee headdresses and to cinch a
blanket upon the Sioux pony, covering
it's spotted sides, was the work of
few seconds.
Then, with the clatter of hoofs in
their ears, the two mounted, and with
trailing lances, galloped forward. Each
leaned low upon his horses neck as if
searching for trail. Soon they heard
the clatter and the sharp yells of rid
ers on all sides, and two or three fig
ures, dimly outlined in the fog, ap.
peared, riding on either hand.
To these near-at-hand enemies the
brother-friends paid not the slightest
heed. They rode forward initiating
their yells and warning cries. but i'm
perceptibly falling to the rear until all
the pursuers had passed; and when
the last beat of hoof had died away
they halted and grinned at each other.
In the fog they wandered, evading
struggling hunters, until nightfall.
Then, with infinite caution, they made
their way out of the valley and rode
f1omeward. They arrived at the Ogal-
lala village in safety, and were well
coined with the acclaim which always
greeted the return of the successful
warrior or hunter in the old days.

He Was Kind. She Clever.

She was very clever woman, and a
past master in the art Of stra tegy. So
all agreed who rode downtown with
her on the 9th avenue surface cars.
She entered the car at I'D street.
Every seat was taken, and almost ev-
cry strap had a man or woman sus-
pended from it.
She looked about hesitatingly for an
instant, but every man was interested
in his paper. Then she took hold Of
strap almost in front Of a young
man, very young man, who was
blushing guiltily as he pretended to
read.
While the young man. blushed and
the woman thus hung, her handker-
chief futtered, accidentally to all ap-
pearances, to the floor. The young
man looked up just then and saw the
white bit Of cambria. The feeling Of
chivalry which he was evidently try
ing to stife would not be suppressed
longer.
He arose and stopped for the hand
kerchief.
This was the woman's opportunity.
While his back was turned she gently
slipped into his seat.
When he turned about and saw what
had occurred he almost collapsed. But
the woman did not. She took her hand
kerchief out of his hand, smiling inno-
Gently.
"Thank you," she said, sweetly.

WISHING.

Do you wish the world were better?
Let me tell you what to do,
Set a watch upon your actions, keep
them always straight and true;
Rid your mind of selfish motives, let
your thoughts be clean and high,
You can make little Eden of the
sphere You occupy.
Do you wish the world were wiser?
Well, suppose you make start,
BY accommodating wisdom in the scrap
book of your heart.
Do not waste one page ON folly; live
to learn and learn to live.
II you want to give men knowledge,
you must get it ere you give.
Do you wish the world were happy?
Then remember day by day
Just to scatter seeds of kindness as
you pass along the way;
For the pleasure of the many may be
ofttimes traced to one,
AS the hand that plants the acorn
shelters armies from the sun.
