That country had been Vaughan's old
stamping ground, but he had been
roaming wide for years, and Brown
flourished in the meantime Eventu-
ally it happened that Hank journey
ed down into Browns balliwick and
Brown took note of his coming.
There was nothing in the nature Of
instant and open challenge Hank
passed the time OF day with old and
new friends that he met, and the
friends Immediately began to cast up
the possibilities of what they knew to
be in the wind. Never word of
Wanting purpose came from Hank.
He was simply there and Sagebrush
/ Brown was also somewhere there
abouts. They had a fair sized king
dom to roam over, and they couldn't
keep apart.
Occasionally they saw each other
watchfuI and careful always, both in
tent with hostile instinct on the 9TH
er Trilling incidents came up grad
ually that tended easily under the
circumstances to brew bad blood. If
Brown displayed resentment Hank
was not the man to step out of the
way of it. a duel that burned its
desperate character into northwest
crn history was fairly in the making
and no man could hope to prevent it.
Hand to Hand and Muzzle to Muzzle.

arose over the merits of respective
horses, Hank on one side and Brown
on the other. Both were positive as
| to opinion and not at all backward
in expressing it. one made a state
ment which the other contradicted.
The time had come.
Ordinarily it would have been a
case of shooting first, but this was
different. 1t was the final test of su-
periority between two champions in
the keenest, quickest game on earth.
The spectators had the duel of the
day in prospect No commonplace
flash and fire program could fulfill
expectations. Both principals real
ized this to the completeness of the
fierce satisfaction of it and carried
themselves accordingly. InSy stepped
out together from the crowd.
Hand to hand?" Hank asked.
Hand to hand" responded Brown
They clasped Hands. Hank sardoni'

their eyes, For the instant they made

with a reckless willingness to let the
other man draw and shoot first
which ceremony being completed
/ Hank calmly transacted his part.
To have trouble Of any consequence

had to be qualified as a gunfighter
, only men who. were regarded as bad
and seemed anxious to impress the
fact aroused more than a friendly in
terest in Hank In the early SOS
when he lived on ranch near Peone
prairie, a few miles from Spokane, he
had no CORY affairs in this town.
Yet he never heard of a man with
a shooting reputation that sooner or
later he did not come into that gents
orbit II happened also that the other
party often experienced the same cur
| iosity as to Hank. It was this faithful
affinity that brought Bill Singleton
and Hank together, Singleton was no
more quarreisome naturally than
Hank. but he had a reputation as
fighter to maintain and there was al
was more or less speculation, which
both Bin and Hank were conscious of,
as to what would be the outcome
should the two chance to come to-
sether,
1t happened one night over cards
in Pat Dillons saloon at Sprague The
eyes of the crowd were upon them,
Each appreciated fully the nature of
them. A dispute started that other

wise might have passed unnoticed,
and both men were on their feet.
| Every voice in the saloon instantly
ceased.
How do you want it?" Vaughan
asked.
Make it over a handkerchief if
you like" Singleton replied.
Your style suits me-" was Waugh
ans assent.
Each took hold of an end of the
handkerchief and stretched it tight
Their other hands went to their guns
With that the crowd came to life in q
stampede for the open country and
knocked over the lamps. They separ.
ated Hank and Bill in the rush and
when the riot had simmered AGAR
the two were cooled off and became
the best of friends afterward.
On another occasion Hank rar
across Wilce Coyle, who had remark
ed rather floridly on what he woult
do to Vaughan if they ever had diff
ference. Hank made no move for hi
artillery, but he stood there and talk
ed to Coyle about the error of hi
, ways in the plain manner that plains
men had. Coyle experienced a chang

such a radical change in prices, and at the same time recommend

il just this-our merchandise rules compel us to close out our
stocks at the end of each season, and as these Dresses are consid-
cred SWmmer House Dresses being of lawns and cotton foulards-
we must dispose Of them even ut n loss. But in the home these
Dresses are just rs seasonable in the Winter as in the SUMMER as
the careful housewife always wants to be crisp and freshly attired.
The lawns are daintily printed in stripes and figures and the
cotton fouards are in designs and coors that closely resemble
silk foulrds.
