preached Sinclair. He tried to buy him

On his way home a shot passed through

assigned to kill McCloud. He and Smith
saw Du Sang. Whispering Smith taunt-
ed Du Sang and told him to get out of

whipped in the high wind, blazed be-
fore them.
Whispering Smith and Lance Dun
ming were sitting together as the two
galloped up. Smith helped Dicksie to
alight. She was conscious of her color
and her eyes were now unduly bright
Moreover, Whispering Smiths glance
rested so calmly on both McCloud's
face and her own that Dicksie felt as
if he saw quite through her and knew
everything that had happened since
they left the house.
Lance was talking to McCloud
Don't abuse the wind" McCloud was
saying. Its our best friend tonight,
Mr.. Dunning. 1t is blowing the wa
ter off-shore. Where is the trouble?"
For answer Dunning led McCloud off
toward the bend, and Dicksie was left
alone with Whispering Smith.
He made seat for her on the wind
ward side Of the big fire. When she
had seated herself she looked up in
great contentment to ask if he was
not going to sit down beside her. The
brown coat. the high black hat, and
the big eyes of Whispering Smith had
already become a part of her mental
store. She saw that he seemed pre-
occupied. and sought to draw him out
of his abstraction.
Il am so glad you and Mr.. McCloud
are getting acquainted with Cousin
Lance" she said And do you mind
my giving you confidence, Mr..
Smith? Lance has been so unreason-
able about this matter of the rail-
roads coming up the valley and pow
wowing so much with lawyers and
ranchers that he has been forgetting
about everything at home. He is so
much older than | am that he ought to
be the sensible one of the family, don't

him losing at cards and drinking. |
am afraid he will get into some shoot
ing affair. l don't understand what
has come over him, and l worry about
1t l believe you could influence him
If you knew him."
What makes you think that?"
asked Whispering Smith, but his eyes
were on the fire.
Because these men he spends his
time with in town-the men who fight
and shoot so much-are afraid of you.
Don't laugh at me. l know 1t is quite
true In spite of their talk. | was

never speak of her husband-I don't
know why. And | don't know why Mr..
McCloud is SO hard on Mr. Sinclair
Mr.. Sinclair seems so kind and good
natured."
Whispering Smith looked from the
fire into Dicksie's eyes. What
should you say If gave you a con.
fidence?"
She opened her heart to his search
ing gaze. Would you trust me with
a confidence?"
He answered without hesitation
You shall see. Now, have many
things cant talk about, you UNDER

secret this instant that carried my
life. l shouldn't fear to do it-so much
for trusting you. Only this. too. as

Let me talk with them.
"Just what should like. Come on,'
said Dicksie, leading the way to the
chicken-yard. II want you to see
my bantams, too. l have three Of the
dearest little things. One is setting
They are over the way. Come see
them first. And. oh, you must see

never saw anything as handsome as
Caesar-he's the rooster; and l have
six pullets. Caesar is perfectly SUI
perb.'
When the two reached the chicken
house Dicksie examined the nest where
she was setting the bantam hen. This
miserable hen will not set" she ex-
claimed in despair. See here, Mr.
Smith, she has left her nest again and
is scratching around on the ground.
Isn't it a shame? I've tied a cord
around her leg so she couldn't run
away. and she is hobbling around like
scrub pony"
perhaps the eggs are too warm -
suggested her companion. Il have had
great success in cases like this with
powdered ice-not using too much. of
course; just shave the ice gently and
rub 1t over the eggs one at time; it
will often result in refreshing the at
tention of the hen"
Dicksie looked grave. Aren't you
ashamed to make fun of me?"
Whispering Smith seemed taken
aback. ut is really serious business" ?"
'Of course"
Very good. Let me watch this hen
for few minutes and diagnose her.
You go on to your other chickens. I'll
stay here and think
Dicksie went down through the
yards. When she came back, Whis-
pering Smith was sitting on n cracker
box watching the bantam. The chick
en- was making desperate efforts to get
of Dicksie's cord and join its COM
panions In the runway. Smith was
eying the bantam critically when
Dicksie rejoined him. DO you usual

This Is not bantam hen at all; this
is bantam rooster. Now that is my
judgment. Compare him with the 9TH
ers. Notice how much darker his
plumage is-it's the rooster" declared
Whispering Smith, wiping the per-
plexity from his brow. Don't feel
bad, not at all. Cut him loose, Miss
Dicksie-don't hesitate do It on my
responsibility. Now let's look at the
cannibal leghorns-and great Caesar"

"Yonder They Come!"

Marion and Dicksie sympathized with
him and laughed at him. "I never
worry about what can't be helped F"
Dicksie murmured.
He looked at Marion. That's a shot
at me. You don't want to go down,
do you?' he asked, ironically, looking
from one to the other.

sponded Dicksie, promptly. Marion
caught cold last night, guess, so you
will excuse her, l know. will be back
in an hour, Marion, and you can toast
your cold while I'm gone"
But you mustn't go alone!" pro-
tested McCloud.
Dicksie lifted her chin the least bit.

WASHINGTON, March 2S,-That
there is great economy loss TO the
public of the United States through
insects that carry disease Is shown
by DR.. L. O. Howard OF the bureau
of entomology in a pamphlet just is'
sued by the Department OF Agrieul-
ture. He declares for instance, that
the development OF the whole state
OF New Jersey has been seriously re-
tarded by mosquitoes in sections which
are admirably adapted to dairy farm
ing in other respects, but this husi-
ness had to be given up owing 10 the
evils Of mosquitoes on the cattle.
Many rich lands Of the South, cannot
be developed as they would be, he
says, on account Of the mosquito.
DR.. Howard declares that typhoid
is not a national seourge as ii has
been called, but rather a national
reproach," or national "crime" for
its main source. the fly evil, can be
controlled.
DR.. Howard says that many dis
eases are transmitted by insects.
Mellow fever is carried by one brand
Of mosquito and malaria by another.
The common house fly is an active
agent in the dissemination Of typhoid

Bubonie plague is carried by fleas.
