tragedy which he had accidentally

The mountainous regions Of Moab, az

The working parts Of the modern
flying machine are infinitely fewer in
number than those of the automobile,
the motor boat. the railroad locomo.

pick is the operation Of a high powered
motor car than that Of a high-powerod
aeroplane. Far more delicately ad-
justed 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-

the aeroplane to Guido 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

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 1t made
him restless and eager to be away.
The earlier gust of anger, the spirit
of revenge, had left him, but 1t had
merely changed into logged resolu-
ton to discover the perpetrators of
this outrage and bring them to Justice
for the crime. The face in the locket
seemed to ask 1t of hin, and his ma
ture urged response. But he could
hope to accomplish nothing more
