CHAPTER XIV.

Another Sunday man and horse and
dog roved the Piedmont hills. And
again Daylight and Dede rode togeth-
er. But this time her surprise at
meeting him was tinctured with sus-
picion; or rather, her surprise was OF
another order. The previous Sunday
had been quite accidental, but his
appearing the second time among her
favorite haunts limited of more than
the fortuitous. Daylight was made to
feel that she suspected him, and he,
remembering that he had seen a
big rock quarry near Blair Park,
stated offhand that he was think
ing of buying it. His one-time
investment in brickyard had
put the idea into his head-an idea
that he decided was a good one, for 1t
enabled him to suggest that she ride
along with him to inspect the quarry.
So several hours he spent in her
company, in which she was much the
same girl as before, natural, unafrect-
ed, light-hearted, smiling and laugh
ing, a good fellow, talking horses with
unf1agging enthusiasm, making friends
with the crusty-tempered Wolf, and
expressing a desire to ride Bob, whom
she declared she was more in love with
than ever. Against his better judg-
ment, Daylight gave in, and, on an
unfrequented stretch Of road, changed
saddles and brides.
Remember, he's creased lightning"
he warned, as he helped her to mount.
She nodded, while Bob pricked up
his ears to the knowledge that he had
a strange rider on his back. The
fun came quickly enough-too quickly
for Dede, who found herself against
Bob's neck as he pivoted around and
bolted the other way. Daylight followed
on her horse and watched. He saw
her check the animal quickly to a
standstill, and Immediately, with rein
across neck and decisive prod of
the left spur, whirl him back the way
he had come and almost as swiftly.
Get ready to give him the quirt on
the nose," Daylight called.
He hung almost gleefully upon her
actions in anticipation Of what the
fractions Bob was going to get. And
Bob got it, on his next whirl, or at
tempt, rather, for he was no more than
halfway around when the quirt met
him smack on his tender nose. There
and then, in his bewilderment, sur
prise and pain, his fore feet, just skim
ming the road, dropped down.
Great" Daylight applauded. "a
couple more will fix him. Hes too
smart not to know when he's beaten y
Again Bob tried. But this time he
was barely quarter around when the
doubled quirt on his nose compelled
him to drop his fore feet to the road.
Then, with neither rein nor spur, but
by the mere threat of the quirt, she
Strengthened him out.
Dede looked triumphantly at Day
light.
Let me give him run?" she asked.
Daylight nodded, and she shot down
the road. He watched her out of
sight around the bend, and watched
till she came into sight returning. She
certainly could sit her horse, was his
thought, and she was sure enough
hummer. God, she was the wife

Occupation Mot OVercrowded.
In period when many business and
professional men complain of unusual

diligently followed by many persons
OF both sexes is at its height. We re-

Citizens Nor More Reliable Than
Those Of Utter Strangers

This is vital question.
1t is fraught with interest to Min
eral Point.
1t permits of only one answer.
1t cannot be evadeA or ignored.

Yes, Denver is all Right, But =

A Baraboo woman, who spent two
years in Denver, has the following to
say upon her return to her Wisconsin
home last week
'In some ways | like Denver very
much, and in other ways it is not what
the real estate men and the newspapers
picture it. The children are taught by
the real estate men to write letters to
eastern friends about the beauties Of
Colorado, and the newspaper that fails
TO mention late frosts in the spring and
early frosts in the fall, besides leaving
out everything else that might tend to
tell the truth and which would not be
in favor of the country, is Che most
highly respected The undertaken
seem to be next to the real estate men
in hurrying for business. So many con-
sumptiyes go there for their health
that it makes fine picking for the I'M
dertakers, and whenever a newcomer
arrives they send them literature tel
ling Of their wonderful embalming fa-
cilties While Denver is a beautiful
place and good climate, there are other
things that might make a fair substi-
tute, and some times the substitute is
better than the original

Thrown from Auto; Drunk.

A Dubuque girl was hurled from the
rear seat of a partly speeding automo-
bile in that city at a late hour Friday
night and her heartless companions
went on at rapid rate not stopping to
help her as she lay in the street When
found by the police her hair was dis
heveled, her face. hands and waist COW
cred with blood which oozed from
cash over her eye and her clothing torn
and dirt streaked Like the other
members of the party the girl was
under the influence of liquor and after
being taken to the police matron's
quarters acted like a raving maniac,
tearing her hair and beating her head
and fists against the iron bars. Her
shrieks, sobs and curses could be heard
for several blocks. Platteville Witness.

A Big Newspaper Enterprise,

The Milwaukee Journal, Wisconsin s
largest daily newspaper, on June LIST,
reduced its subscription rate $500 per
year to readers, by mail, in advance.
The Journal believes that the price of
print paper must go lower and is TAX
ing a great hazard in naming this re-
duced price for the coming year.
The publishers state that. regardless
of consequences, they will stand by all
subscriptions taken at this rate, during
the life OF the subscription. Further
more, that the paper will not be al
lowed to go backward but to the con-
trary viii be improved from time to
time as occasion requires.
The Journal was the pioneer news
paper to give to readers direct low
subscription price.

MADE THEM REMEMB ER.
Customs Of the Old English Court of
Forest Reeardera.

The great forests of England We're
for centuries royal property. They
were kept from settlement and en-
croachment by the strictest laws and
the scverest penalties. To enforce the
laws Il great number of officials Were
appointed, There We're wardcrs. yer
derers, foresters and regarders, and
there were special courts to try cases
of trespaSs, poaching and like offenses.
1t is of the regardcrs that Mr.. Nor
way writes in his Highways and
Byeways In Yorkshire" lie is deal
ing with Sherwood forest of Robin
Hood fame:
Il know not with any certainty what
may have been the boundaries of this
forest In ancient times, for that eX-
cellent custom of the court of the re-
garders has gone out of use, which
was wont TO impress the bounds 50
firmly on the memories of those who
dwet In the neighborhood
The regarders used to take a survey
Of the forest every third year. and in
their train went number of boys col
lected willy nilly from the immediate
vicinity. The boys were chosen be
cause it was held that the memories
Of the young are good. Yet 1t was
found TO be desirable to impress them
firmly with the actual limits lest any
wandering fancy should distract their
attention at the important moment,
and SO the boys were bumped heavily
upon the grouiId whenever the bound
airy was reached. or If the limit were
a stream that was much better, for
the urchins were thrown in and pad
died about until their attention was
awake
