finally ending in that thriving western
city-Denver. Then the CRIME of the
engine was on Cables hands and deer
beneath his skin; the roar of iron and
steel and the rush of wind were ever in
his ears, the quest of danger in his
eye, but there were love. pride and a
new ambition in his heart. Now. / N
1898, David Cables hands we're white

engineers cap had given way to the

But his case was not unique In that

Gable read the news Of the wreck

rising influence carried him to the well
earned luxury. The lines of care and

wife as the years rolled by. Her come

hard old days and took on the plum
age Of prosperity. Trouble, resent
ment and worry disappeared as il by
magic, smoothed out by the satiny
touch Of comforts fingers. She went
upward much faster than her husband
for her ambitions were less exacting.
She longed to shine socially. He loathed
the thought Of it. But Cable was
proud Of his wife. He enjoyed the
transition that lifted her up with
steadT trength to the plane which
Cite her best. as he regarded 1t. She
had stuck by him nobly and uncom-
