ton she could have held with the
dead. Something about that face
smiling up into his own held peculiar
a strange feeling of familiarity, touch
ing some dim memory which failed
to respond. Surely he had never seen
the original, for she was not one to
be easily forgotten, and yet eyes,
hair, expression, combined to remind
him of some one whom he had seen
but could not bring definitely to mind.
There were no names on the locket,
no marks of identification Of any kind,
yet realizing the sacredness of 1t,
Keith slipped the fragile gold chain
about his neck, and securely hid the
trinket beneath his shirt.
1t was noon by this time. the sun
high overhead, and his horse. with
dangling rein, still nibbling daintily
at the short grass. There was no rea
son for his lingering longer. He swept
his gaze the length and breadth of the
desolate valley, and across the river
over the sand hills. All alike appear
ed deserted, not moving thing being
visible between the bluffs and the
stream. Still he had the unpleasant
feeling of being watched. and it made
him restless and eager to be away
The earlier gust Of anger. the spirit
of revenge, had left him, but it had
merely changed into dogged resolu-
ton to discover the perpetrators Of
this outrage and bring them to justice
for the crime. The face in the locket

the slightest effort to conceal his
movements, until he had regained the
scene of murder. In evidence Of the
truth of his theory no further shots
were fired, and although he watched
that opposite sand bank carefully. not
the slightest movement revealed the
presence of others. That every mo-
ton he made was being observed by
keen eyes he had no doubt, but this
knowledge did not disconcert him,
now that he felt convinced fear Of re-
veament would keep his watchers at
a safe distance. Whoever they might
be they were evidently more anxious
to escape discovery than he was fear
full Of attack. and possessed no desire
to take his life, unless 1t became
necessary to prevent recognition.
They still had every reason to believe
their attack on the wagons would be
credited to hostile Indians, and would
consider it far safer to remain con-
cealed, and thus .arbor this supposi-
ton. They could not suspect that
Keith had already stumbled upon the
truth, and was determined to verify
it.
Secure in this conception of the sit
uation. yet still keeping a wary eye
about to guard against any tTeachery,
the plainsman. discovering a spade in
the nearest wagon, hastily dug a hole
in the sand, wrapped the dead bodies
in blankets. and deposited them there
in, piling above the mound the char
red remains Of boxes as some slight
protection against proWling wolves.
He searched the clothing of the men,
but found little to reward the effort,

neck of the elder man, a rather pc
culiar lOcket containing a portrait
painted on ivory. Keith was a long
time opening this, the spring being
very ineenioHsly concealed. but upon
finally succeeding, he looked upon the
features of a woman of middle age.
A. strong mature face of marked ro
finement, exceedingly attractive still,
with smiling dark eyes, and a perfect
wealth Of reddish brown hair. He
held the locket open in his hand for
several minutes, wondering who she
could be. and what possible connec-

FORGOTTEN Foods.

It is well to remember that many
plants which once were used as veg
etables have been allowed to drop out
of our bills of fare. Our forefathers,
for instance. sometimes Gined off elder
top and burdock root. and the early
shoots of the hop were considered a
great deIicacy and were cooked and
eaten as asparagus. Walter Jerrold.
in his "I1ighways and Byways in
Kent" recalls a time when Kentfsh
children could tell Of many pleasant
hours spent among the hedges in
search Of the wild hop top and OF
the wholesome suppers made upon the
well earned treasure era they learned
to think their food the better for be-
ing rare and costly.

attack. but must guard against treach-
cry. AS he rode. his eyes never left
those far-away sand dunes, although
he perceived no movement, no black
dot even which he could conceive to
be a possible enemy. Now that he
possessed ample time for thought. the
situation became more puZzlfng. This
tragedy which he had accidentally
stumbled upon must have had a cause
other than blind chance. 1t was the
elimination Of a plot. with some rea-
son behind more important than ordi-
nary robbery. Apparently the wagons
contained nothing of value, merely the
clothing, provisions, and ordinary
utensils Of an emigrant party. Nor
had the victims pockets been care
fully searched. Only the mules had
been taken by the raiders, and they
would be small booty for such q
crime.

AeropIane Is Simple.

The working parts Of the modern
flying machine are infinitely fewer in
number than those of the automobile,
the motor boat, the railroad locomo-
tive or the steamship. Far more COM
plex is the operation Of high powered
motor car than that of high-powered
aeroplane. Far more delicately ad-
iusted are the thousands of parts OF
the steam or electric locomotive than
the mechanism of the flying machine
1t is this very simplicity of construc-
ton and operation that has enabled
the aeroplane to outdo in continuous
motion every other known form of
conveyance, except steamers. motor
boats and sailing ships. and these
last named are able to maintain their
motion only because of their huge
driving mechanism. out Of all proper
tion to the bulk that is propelled.

hope to accomplish nothing more
here, and the plainsman swung him
self into the saddle. He turned his
horses head eastward, and rode
away. From the deeply rutted trail
he looked back to wher the fire still
smoked in the midst of that desolate
silence.
