clicking of pistol locks Intutively she
understood he had strolled over to the
! Country club, picked Il quarrel with
Eustace and would have him out at
day break next morning.
No thought of appeal to him stirred
in her Instead there came a firm de.
termination matching his own. She
knew her name had not been men
toned in the quarrel quite as we'll as
she knew herself its real root The
men must not fight. She could not
have her brothers blood upon her con-
science, still less her lovers. There
was but one way to stop them. way
bitterer than DEATH still she set her
feet toward it unfaltering.
She got up and sat by the window.
watching with noteless eyes the wheel
ing stars, the waning moonlight. But
at the first pale dawn light she was
tensely alive. Below she heard
stealthy stir, the cautious opening of
door, with muffied voices and cautious
steps outside she got up and crept to
her brothers room. Lighted candles
still glittered there. Upon the table
there was brief will, the ink not dry
in the heavily scrawled signature. Be
side it was a briefer statement: Let it
be understood of all men if ! die !
shall have died in a mans quarrel,
founded on no personal grudge, but
resenting unjust aspersions upon my
native state" She almost smiled over
it. The native state counted to Joe
for so very little in the ordinary course
of life.
Twenty minutes later, just as the sun
peeped over trimming trees, she came
out in little clearing upon a wooded
hilltop and saw two men standing
weapon in hand, face to face, ten yards
apart. Three other men little way
off had scared, white faces, but neither
combatant had lost wholesome color.
Mile sprang between them. white as
dawn wrath, but with eyes like
glowing Goals. She flung up her arms
ana said clearly; Fire, gentlemen! If
anybody deserves death, / dor
"Millie! Go backr Joe eantrell thun-
dered. Eustace dropped his pistol and
leaped to the girls side In her ear he
whispered brokenIy: Darling, let him
kill me 1t is the best way out of it
air.
Mile shrank from him little.
There is no need for bloodshed," she
said Then, raising her voice so the
seconds could hear: Il call all here to
witness that l have not been deceived.
Il knew at the very first of John Eus-
tace's betrothal We have done no
wrong to anybody. We've love each
other because we cannot help it. Oh,
it is hard that my own brother brings
me to such open shameH'
'Come home," Cantrell said roughly,
finging away his pistol and clutching
her arm. Eustace caught the other
hand, saying: "Stay with me, Milhel
The whole world may go if l have
your
"Goodby," Mile said, drawing away
her hand q shall love you always,
John, but your wife need not be jeal-
ous.''
By the strange orderings of fate that
was true word. John Eustace went
straight to Alice and told her all the
truth. She gave him back his free
dom and would have given him half
her money only he would not have it.
| But he could not persuade Mile to
marry him until Joe, the masterful,
had wooed and won Alice Ellison and
her fortune.

On the other hand, the farmer who
diversifes has something to sell at
all seasons, raises the greater part
of the supplies for his family at
home, and when his main crop is
ready to harvest, he is not in debt
and SO IS independent enough to

DR.. TABOR expresses the Opin-
ion that the epidenics of dengue
fever which have occurred at fire.
quent intervals in the South for
the past thirty years were nothing
less than a mild from of yellow
fever. 1t is a fact that many old
and experienced physicians have
noted that a marked resemblance
exists between the fever ordinarily
knoHn as dengue and that called
yellow fever. If the doctor be cor
rect, then the spread of dengue
must be due, as in yellow fever,
to the agency of the pestiferous
mosquito, and it may be safely in
ferred that by properly protecting
the patients from mosquitoes, the
disease might easily Be checked.
But 1t, as DR.. Tabor ; remarks
further imply, the fact of having
it immune to yellow fever, it may,
on the other hand, prove a blessing
in disguise to be racked with den
que. The latter disease IS painful
but not fatal, and an epidemic of
it is certainly to be preferred TO a
visitation from Yellow Jack.
