For what may have been the first
and only occasion in Mr.. Hampton's
audacious career, he realized his utter
helplessness. This mere slip of
red-headed girl, this little nameless
vail OF the frontier, condemned him
so completely, and without waste Of
words, as to leave him weaponless.
Mr. Hampton was a thorough-going
sport, and no quality was quite SO apt
to appeal to him as dead gameness.
He glanced surreptitiously aside at
her once more, but there was no sign
of relenting in the averted face. He
rested lower against the rock, his face
upturned toward the sky, and thought.
1t was no spirit of bravado that gave
rise to his reckless speech of an hour
previous. 1t was simply spontaneous

ence desire to live-he wanted to
save this girl.
His keenly observant eyes, trained
by the exigencies Of his trade to take
note of small things, and rendered
eager by this newly awakened ambi-
tion, scanned the cliff towering above
them. He perceived the extreme jr.
regularity of its front, and numerous
peculiarities of formation which had
escaped him hitherto. Suddenly his
puzzled face frightened to the birth of
an idea. By heavens! it might be
done! Surely it might be done. Inch

the stone, those sturdy cedars growing
straight out over the chasm like the
bowsprits of ships, while all along the
way, irregular and ragged, varied riffs
not entirely unlike the steps of a crazy
staircase.
The very conception of such an ex-
plot caused his flesh to creep. But he

Again and again, led by an impulse

deed might be accomplished, although
1t would test the foot and nerve of a
Swiss mountaineer. He glanced again
uneasily toward his companion, and
saw the same motionless figure, the
same somber face turned deliberately
away. Hampton did not smile, but his
square jaw set, and he clinched his
hands. He had no fear that she might
fail him, but for the first time in all
his life he questioned his own courage.

Suppose You Try Smiling.
Your burden is heavy. haven't a
doubt,
But others have loads they must carry
about.
And they are not whining.
Some people are glad if but half of
the day
They see the sun shining.
Suppose you try smiling
know you are lonely. but other hearts
And bravely refuse to be bitter or
break
Because Of life's sorrow.
They think of the JOY in the land far
away
And hasten the slow passing hours
of today
With hopes Of tomorrow.
Suppose you try smiling.
This funny old world is mirror. you
Turn its way with a sneer or face Of
a foe.
And you will see, trouble.
But meet it with laughter and looks
full of cheer.
And back will come sunshine and love
true and dear,
Your blessings to double.
Suppose you try smiling.
All places are open to those who are
glad,
Too many lack courage. too many are
Those near you need cheering.
So sing with your burden, the way
is not long.
And if you look upward your heart
will grow strong,
And skies will be clearing.
Suppose you try smiling.
