Sunday came, and Bob, out In the
Piedmont hills, behaved like an angel.
His goodness at times was OF tbs
spirited. prancing order, but other,
wise he was q lamb. But no Dede did
Daylight encounter. He vainly circled
about among the hill roads. and In
the afternoon took the steep grade
over the divide of the second range
and dropped into Maraga Valley. Just
after passing the foot Of the descent
he heard the hoof beats Of a canterina
horse. It was from ahead md coming
toward him. What II 1t were Dedei
He turned Bob around and started ia
return at q walk. The canter came
nearer, but he faced straight ahead
until he heard the horse behind check
to a walk. Then he glanced ove his
shoulder. 1t was Dede. The recogni
ton was quick, and, with her, accom-
panied by surprise. What more
natural thing than that, partly turn
ing his horse. he should walt till she
caught up with him: and that, when
abreast, they should continue abreast
on up the grade? He could have
sighed with relief. The thins
was accomplished, and SO easily.
Greetings had been exchanged; here
they were side by side and going In
the same direction with miles and
miles ahead Of them.
He noted that her eye was first for
the horse and next for him.
"Oh. what q beauty" she had cried
at sight OF Bob. From the shining
light In her eyes, and the face filled
with delight. he would scarcely have
believed that 1t belonged to the young
woman he had known In the office,
the young woman with the controlled.
subdued Office face.

OF her first remarks. 81 imagined

Thus, and to his great relief, they
launched on = topic OF mutual inter.

and Of the whirI and his scheme to
overcome 1t; and she agreed that
horses had to DO handled with q Ger.

And thereat she told him moro OF
her ranch life In the days before her
father died. And Daylight wal hugely
pleased with himself. They were get

had not Jagged in the full half hour
they had been together. When she
talked, he listened and followed her,
and yet all the while he was follow

He had grown up to the tacit Action

OF goodness Daylight lured into conf

and rolling a cigarette. with slack
knees and relaxed seat, the reins lying
on the animals neck. Bob whirled
abruptly and with lightning swiftness,

tile rein across the neck, did nothing
to prevent the evolution.

4 For, the moment the spur touched
him, his left hind leg had reached for
ward In a kick that struck the stir
rup a smart blow. Several times, out
OF curiosity, Daylight attempted the
spur, and each time Bob's hoof landed
the stirrup. Then Daylight. following
the horses example of the unexpected,
suddenly drove both spurs into him
and reached him underneath with the
quirt.
You amt never had q real licking
before" he muttered, as Bob. thus
rndely jerked out OF the circle of his
own impish mental processes, shot

Half a dozen times spurs and Quirt
bit into him, and then Daylight settled
down to enjoy the magnificent gallop.
mo longer punished, at the end Of q
half mile Bob eased down into a fast
canter. Wolf, toiling the rear, was
catching up. and everything was going

decided that the horse had had

" and put him into q gentle canter
on the forward track. After q time,
he refined In to a stop to see II he

for a minute, Bob turned his head and

He had taken q liking to the animal,

realized that Bob was not vicious nor

FOSTER SPOTTED
The PTNKERTONS
Had Two Strange Detectives
Taken to Police Station
But Nothing Done

Mahlon b. Foster made an effort last
Friday night to find out just wnat the
supposed Pinkerton detectives are do
ing in Wilmington. They have been
here several weeks. Foster met two of
the men at the postofiice and inquired
what they were doing The men said
that was none OF his business, but
later said they were detectives.
Foster claimed that as a citizen he
could have the two arrested as suspi-
cious characters as no one knew that
they really were detectives. Foster
reported his suspicious to the police
but they took no action. An hour or
so later. Foster met the supposed
Pinkertons in front Of the Hotel VIII
mington and seeing Patrolman Brad
ford across the street called the po-
liceman to him and explained the sit
uation. Bradford escorted the strang-
ers to the police station, where
they stated that they were detectives
and were working on a case hero They
did not meRtion the case they were on,
however, and were not detained.
Foster attempted TO get warrants
sworn out charging the men with
working here without a detective IL
cense but no warrants were issued.

Small courtesies of life seem to be
entirely lost in the rush of big things.
The leaving off of the little things that

well known and recognized fact to wo-
men who crave those graceful atten-
tions, so easy in the giving when the
thought is right.
Many men no longer consider 1t nee

Com done with the old time alacrity,

Dunicient to convince the veriest skep-
nc of the truth of courtesy's deca-
dence.
Be It said in favor of man, contin-
ually on the rack regarding these
omissions. that he is by no means the
greater offender. Women who enter

received the courtesy OF an acknowl-

treatment of a social courtesy is an
