sary, and It Was Taken.

double-leaded editorial as follows:

on the printer ever since he twisted a
phrase which appeared in an editorial
of ours from full of internal rotten
ness and dead mems bones into In

tones And as soon as our eye lit
upon this gratuitous insult above to
the Hon. Hezekiah E. Kinney we
armed ourselves with our repeating
shotgun, sought out the guilty party
and shot him down in cold blood, nos'
withstanding the fact that the now
deceased was the only support oil =

that in the future his person and his
speeches will be handled in these col

small room into which Langford was
ushered. 1t was also very plain. 1t
was more than that, 1t was shabby.
An easy chair or two that has sur
vived the wreckage of the house of
Williston had been shipped to this
land of promise" together with a
few other articles such as were abso-
lutely indispensable. The table was
big shipping box, though Langford
did not notice that, for 1t was neatly
covered with moth-eaten plum-col-
ored felt cloth. A rug, crocheted out
of parti-colored rags, a relic of Mary's
conservative and thrifty grandmother,
served as a carpet for the living room.
A peep through the open door into the
next and only other room disclosed
glimpses of mating on the floor.
There was a holy place even in this
castaway house ON the prairie. AS the
young mans careless eyes took in
this new significance, the door closed
softly. The little girl had shut
herself in.
The two men sat down at the table
It was hot. They were perspiring
freely. The flies, swarming through
the screenless doorway, stung disa-
greeably.
Laconically Williston told his story.
He wasted no words in the telling. In
the presence of the man whose big
success made his own pitiful failures
homogeneous, his sensitive scholars
nature had shut up like clam.
Langfords jaw was set. His young
face was tense with interest. He had
thrown his hat on the floor as he came
in, as is the way with men who have
lived much without women. He had
strong, bronzed face, with daredevil
eyes, blue they were, too, and he had
a certain turn of the head, mark of
to her sons. He had big shoulders,
clad in a blue flannel shirt open at
the throat In his absorption he had
forgotten the little girl" as complete
ly as If she had, in very truth, been
the 10-year-old of his imagination.
How plainly he could see all the I'M
holy situation-the handful of des-
perate men perfectly protected on the
the little island. One man sighting
from behind cottonwood could play
havoc with a whole sheriff's posse
on that open stretch of sand-bar.
Nothing but surprise-and did these
insolent men fear surprise? They had
laughed at the suggestion of the near

Grape-Nuts is never a crying baby.
Many babies who cannot take any

Grape-Nuts, and get well.
my little baby was given up by
three doctors who said that the con-
densed milk on which l fed her had
ruined the child's stomach. One Of
the doctors told me that the only
thing to do would be to try Grape
Nuts, so / got some and prepared it as
follows: / soaked ~ tablespoonfu!s
in one pint of cold water for half an
hour, then 1 strained of the liquid and
mixed IL teaspoonfuls of this strained
Grape-Nuts juice with six teaspoonfuls
of rich milk, put in pinch Of salt
and little sugar, warmed it and gave
1t to baby every two hours.
