When the whole cabin seemed 10 be

boarding had caught and burned like

bearable, Williston held out his hand
to his daughter, silently. AS silently
she put her hand, her left hand, in
his; nor did Williston notice that 1t
was her left, nor how Imply her right
arm hung to her side. In the glare,
her face shone colorless, but her dark
ewes were stars. Her head was held
high. With firm step, Williston adj

DO YOU KNOW
WHAT WHITE LEAD 1877
It's Chief Use and Method of Deter
mining Good from Bad Explained.

White Lead is the standard paint
material all over the world. 1t is made
by corroding metallic lead into white
powder, through exposing it to the
fumes of weak acetic acid and carbonic
acid gas; this powder is then ground
and mixed with linseed oil, making
thick paste, in which form it is packed
and sold for painting purposes. The
painter thins it down to the proper
consistency for application by the adj
dition of more linseed oil.
The above refers, of course, to pure,
genuine White Lead only. Adulterated
and fake white Lead" of which there
are many brands on the market, is
generally some sort of composition
containing only percentage of white
lead; sometimes no White Lead at all;
in such stuff, barytes or ground rock,
chalk, and similar cheap substances
are used to make bulk and initiate the
appearance of pure White Lead.
There is, however, positive test by
which the purity or impurity of White
Lead may be proved or exposed, be-
fore painting with it.
The blow-pipe flame will reduce
pure white lead to metallic lead. If
q supposed white lead be thus tested
and it only partially reduces to lead
leaving a residue, it is proof that
something else was there besides
white lead.

mark to prove absolutely pure under
this blow-pipe test, and that you may
make the test yourself in your own
home, they will send free upon re-
quest blow-pipe and everything else
necessary to make the test, together

HAPPY OLD AGE
Most Likely to Follow Proper Eating.

As old age advances, we require less
food to replace waste, and food that
will not overtax the digestive organs,
while supplying true nourishment.
Such an ideal food is found in Grape
Nuts, made of whole wheat and barley
by long baking and action of diastase
in the barley which changes the starch
into sugar
The phosphates also, placed up un:
der the bran-coat of the wheat, are in
cluded in Grape-Nuts, but left out of
white -four. They are necessary to
the building of brain and nerve cells.
Il have used Grape-Nuts," writes an
Iowa man, for years and feel as good
and am stronger than was ten years
ago. l am over "a years old. and at
tend to my business every day.
Among my customers l meet a man
every day who is 80 years old and at

Grape-Nuts with Postum and says they
go fine together.
For many years before l began to
eat Grape-Nuts, could not say that

GLAD TO HAVE HIM GO.
Toll-Gate Keeper Thought He Had
Visit from His Satanic Majesty.

This is not the only age in which
motor cars have created excitement
and disturbance. In 1902 such appari-
lions were few and far between; at
present they are too frequent to at
tract attention. Mr.. Joseph Hatton, in
"Old Lamps and New" tells of the
fright caused by one of Trevithick's
steam locomotives, made to run on
unrailed roads in the early part of the
last century.
Now and then one Of these eXtraor-
binary vehicles would be encountered,
snorting and putting on the highway.
The countrymen regarded them as the
evil one in disguise.
One of the cars, coming to a toll
gate, stopped for the gate to be
opened. The toll-man came hurrying
out. He flung the gate open with
trembling hands, and teeth which
chartered audibly.
The driver asked him how much toll
there was to pay.
20, nothing, dear Mr.. Satan, moth
ing!" hastily assured the man. GO
on as fast as you like; there's nothing
to pay."-Youth's Companion.

action. If one must die it is good to
die after a brave fight. One is never
a coward then. Williston's face wore
an almost exalted look.
"My daughter is free to go?' he
asked, his first words having met
with no response. Better much bet
ter. for the make of man like Willis
ton to die in the dignity of silence,
but for Mary's sake he parleyed.

CURLY. IF pulin' idiot hadn't missed
the broad side of you-as pretty
mark this side heaven as man could
want-then we might talk about the
girl. She's showed up too damned
much like a man now to let her loose.
His big, shutting form lounged in
his saddle. He raised his rifle with
every appearance of lazy indifference.
They were to be shot down where
they stood, now, right on the TIRES
hold of their burning homestead. Will
liston bowed his head to the newt
able for a moment; then raised 1t
proudly to meet the inevitable.
A rifle shot rang out startlingly
clear. At the very moment the lead
er's hawk eye had swept the sight, his
rifle arm had twitched uncertainty,
then fallen nerveless to his side, while
his bullet, playing faltering and
discordant second to the first true
shot, tore up the ground in front of
him and swerved harmlessly to one
side. Instantly the widest confusion
reigned-shouts, curses, the plunging
of horses mingled with the sharp
scrack of firearms. The shooting was
wild. The surprise was too COM
plete for the outlaws to recover at
once. They had heard no sound of ap-
preaching hoof-beats. The roaring
flames licking up the dry timber and
rendering the surrounding darkness
the blacker for the contrast had been
of saving grace to the besiegers after
ALL
In a moment the desperadoes raj
lied. They closed in and imposed a
cursing, malignant wall between the
rescuers and the blazing door of the
shanty and what stood and lay before
it. Mary had sunk down at her fathers
feet and had no cognizance of the
fierce though brief conflict that en-
sued.
Presently she was dragged roughly
to her feet. A big, muscular arm had
heavy grasp Of her.
Make sure Of the girl. Red!" COM
manded a sharp voice near, and it was
gone out iato the night.
Afterward she heard-oh, many,
many times in the night watches
the eerie galloping of horses hoofs,
growing fainter and ever fainter,
heard it above the medley Of tramp
ling horses and yelling men, and knew

CHAPTER X.
In Which the x Y z Figures Some
what Mysteriously.

jim Munson, riding his pony over
the home trail at slow walk, dropped
sleepily in his saddle. 1t was not a
weirdly late bedtime, half-past ten,
maybe but he would have been sleep
ing soundly u good hour or more had
this not been his night to go to town
if he chose. He had chosen He
would not have missed his chance for
a good deal But his dissipation had
been light. The boss never tolerated
much along that line. He had drunk
with some congenial cronies from the
Circle Z outfit complimentary to the
future well-being and increasing
wealth of this already well-llnown and
fourishing cattle ranch. OF course
he must drink a return compliment
to the same rose-colored prosperity
for the Three Bars, which he did and
sighed for more. That made two, and
two were the limit, and here was the
limit overreached already; for there
had always to be n last little COM
forter to keep him from nodding in his
saddle.
1t was a sleepy night cool and soft
and still. He could walk his horse all
the way if he wanted to. There was
no haste. The boys would all be in
bed. They would not even wait up for
the mail, knowing his, Jim's, innate
aversion to hurry. Had he not been
so drowsy, he would like to have sung
a bit; but it required little too much
effort. He would just plod along.
Must all be in bed at Williston S
no light anywhere. A little short of
where the Williston branch left the
main trail he half paused. If it were
not so late he would ride up and give
them hail. But of course they were
asleep. Everything seemed still and
dark about the premises. He would
just plod along.
Hello, therel Where'd you come
FROM" he cried of a sudden, and be-
fore he had had time to carry his re-
solve into action.
A man on horseback had drawn rein
directly in front of him. Jim blinked
with the suddenness of the shock.
Might ask you the same question,
responded the other with an easy
laugh. I'm for town to see the doc
tor about my little girl. Been puny
for week"
"Oh! Where you FROM" asked Jim,
with the courteous interest of his
kind.
New man on the X Y q" answered
the other, lightly. Must be gittin' on.
Worried about my baby girl"
He touched spurs to his horse and
was off with friendly so long," over
his shoulder.
Jim rode on thoughtfully.
Now don't it beat the devil" he
was thinking. how that there cow
puncher struck this trail comm from
KY with the X Y u clean t. other
side O. town? Yep, it beats the devil,
for q fac. He must be a ridin' for
his health. 1t beats the devil" This
last was long drawn out. He rode a
little farther. ut beats the devil" he
thought again-the wonder of it was
waking him up-"how that blamed
fool could a struck this here trail q
goin' for doc"
At the branch road he stopped ir'
resolutely.
