All women work; some in their
homes, some in church, and some in
the whirl of society. And in stores,
mills and shops tens of thousands are
on the nevcr-ceasing treadmill, earning
their daily bread.
Al are subject TO the same physical
laws; all suffer alike from the same
physical disturbance, and the nature of
their duties, in many cases, quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all
kinds of female complaints, tumors,
liberation, falling and displacc-
ments or perhaps irregularity or
suppression, causing backnche, ner-
vousness, irritability and lassitude.
They especially require an invigorat-

How distressing to see woman

In one place in particular the as
sailants seem to have determined to
force an entrance; they have massed
there in numbers, and those opposed
are in danger of being swept under.
Dick has prepared for just such an
emergency-he springs forward and
hurls some object which he snatches
from a box. 1t whirls through the air.
and, striking the ground just at the
outside edge of the eremy's line, ex-

shakes the very earth.
CONSERVATION naturally ensues
among the Mexican assailan.s, who
believe they are about to be blown
to atoms. Perhaps not great deal
of damage has been accomplished, as
the force of dynamite is generally
downward, but Dicks object has not
been slaughter, but lsther to produce
panic among their assailants, in
which endeavor he has been signally
successful.
Some stink away like whipped ours,
and the remainder fight with less vim
than before. When q second bomb
bursts. with a concnssion even more
deafening than the first, the last straw
has been laid on the camel. The
Mexicans have engaged to fight with
men, but not dynamite bombs, and
they draw the line there.
So quickly do the Mexicans melt
away that presently all who may be
seen are those lying uron the ground.
or couple locked in fierce hand-to-
hand struggle with some of the de-
tenders of the little valley fort, and
these are soon secured.
AS the battle seems to be over, the
brave Americans set to work looking
after their wounded, and quite a num-
ber have received hurts during the
brief but exceedingly desperate ac-
ton. Two saddles will be vacant on
the morrow. BY the light of the fires
the voyagers dig graves and clear the
battlefield of all its terrible evidences
of action, so that in the morning the
eyes of Miss Pauline will not be hor-
rified by the sight of ghastly scenes.
Although the enemy has received
such signal drubbing, that is no sign
he will give up the endeavor to con-
quer. AS soon as possible after the
retreat, Dick hastens to the tent to
reassure the one who is ever in his
mind. He finds Dora almost In con-

are keen, and these enemies who
grapple over the logs can see enough
to know how to fight like demons.
All has happened in an incredibly
brief space of time. Five minutes be-
fore peace and silence brooded over
the valley; and now a stranger COM
ing through the define above would
believe bedlam had broken loose, and
all the fends of Tophet were having
high carnival below.
Dick and Bob have divided their
forces, so that one can be at each
end of the little fort, encouraging the
men by precept and example. The
Mexicans who have attacked them
show an unusual fierceness, and Dick
Immediately surmises that Senor Lo-
pez must have given them liberal
doses of pulque or some sort Of strong
liquor, so as to fire their nerves, and
arouse their most savage passions.
Surely the love Of money alone could
not make them take such risks.
So desperately does the battle rage
that there is some dagger lest friends
shoot down each other. When Dick
realizes this he roars:
Light the funeral fires! Well toss
the yellow dogs into the blaze! A
torch! a torch!"
One is almost Immediately thrust
into his hand, and, springing to pile
of dead leaves and brush, gathered
for this very purpose, he applies the
fire. Instantly flames shoot upward,
other hands have done the same in
three different quarters, and as many
fires illumine the scene.
1t is dark no longer, indeed the sun
could hardly do more toward dispell-
ing the gloom, for as the blaze eats
into each pyramid CT dry grass and
debris, it mounts upward into a solid
pillar at least ten feet high.
Every man can row see those
around him. and the bitter hand-to-
hand struggle promises to be more
desperate than ever.

tack, should the Senior Lopez manage
to arouse still further feeling of

followers.

So Bob goes only too gladly-love
does not pinch very severely, and
there are those who rather enjoy the
little twinges of pain when inflicted by
loving fingers.

business, in case Senor Lopez influ-
ences his men to advance once more,
which, after the severe punishment
they have received ON this night, Is
an exceedingly problematical thing.
