conceived fortnight great idea. For
six months she saved her egg-money,

with turning-lathe of wonderful SIM
plicity and multifarious eficiencies.
And their mutual delight In the lathe.
which was his, was only equalled by
their delight in Mabs first foal, which
was Dedes special private property.
Daylight had made no assertion OF
total abstinence. though he had not
taken a drink for months after the
day he resolved to let his business go
to smash. Soon he proved himself
strong enough to dare to take a
drink without taking a second. On
the other hand, with his coming to
live in the country, had passed all de-
sire and need for drink. He felt no
yearning for 1t, and even forgot that
1t existed. Yet he refused to be
afraid of 1t, and in town, on occasion.

brother, the Daylight from Alaska,
had taken his place. The threatened
inundation of fat had subsidized. and
all his old-time Indian leanness and
utheness of muscle had returned. SO.
likewise, did the old slight hollows in
his cheeks come back. For him they
indicated the pink Of physical condi-
ton. He became the acknowledged
strong man of Sonoma Valley, the
heaviest litter and hardest winded
among a husky race of farmer folk.
At first, when in need of ready cash.
he had followed Ferguson's example
of working at days labor; but he was
not long in gravitating to form OF
work that was more stimulating and
more satisfying, and that allowed him
even more time for Dede and the
ranch and the perpetual riding through
the hills. Having been challenged by
the blacksmith, in spirit Of banter,
to attempt the breaking of a certain
incorrigible colt, he succeeded so sig
nally as to earn quite a reputation as
a horse-breaker. And soon he was
able to earn whatever money he de-
sired at this, to him, agreeable work.
His life was eminently wholesome
and natural. Early to bed, he slept
like an infant and was up with the
dawn. Always with something to do.
and with thousand little things that
enticed but did not clamor, he was
himself never overdone. Nevertheless,
there were times when both he and
Dede was not above confessing tired
ness at bedtime after seventy or eighty
miles In the saddle. Sometimes, when
he had accumulated little money,
and when the season favored, they
would mount their horses, with sad
dle-bags behind, and ride away over
the wall of the valley and down into
the other valleys.

says: II was accustomed to eating
all kinds Of ordinary food until, for
some reason, Indigestion and nervous
prostration set in.
After / had run down seriously
my attention was called to the neces-
sity Of some change in my diet, and
/ discontinued my ordinary breakfast
and began using Grape-Nuts with
good quantity of rich cream.
TN a few days my condition
changed in a remarkable way, and /
began to have a strength that l had
never been possessed Of before, a
vigor Of body and poise of mind that
amazed me. 1t was entirely new ia
my experience.
my former attacks Of indigestion
had been accompanied by heat flashes,
and many times my condition was dis
tressing with blind spells OF dizziness,
rush Of blood to the head and neural
gic pains in the chest.
"Since using Grape-Nuts alone for
breakfast 1 have been free from these
troubles, except at times when nave
INDUCED in rich, greasy foods in guam
tity, then l would be warned by
pain under the left shoulder blade, and
unless needed the warning the old
trouble would come back, but when l
finally got to know where these trou-
bles originated returned to my Grape
Nuts and cream and the pain and dis
turbance left very quickly.

result Of my use of Grape-Nuts." Name

One day, stopping to mail letter
hailed by the blacksmith.
Say, Daylight" he said. "a young
fellow named Slosson sends you his
regards. He came through in an auto
on the way to Santa Rosa. He wanted
to know If you didn't live hereabouts,
but the crowd with him was in hur-
ry. So he sent you his regards and
said to tell you he'd taken your ad.
vice and was still going on breaking
his own record"
Daylight had long since told Dede
of the incident.
"Slosson?" he meditated. "Slosson?
That must be the hammer-thrower.
He put my hand down twice, the
young scamp" He turned suddenly
to Dede. Say, it's only twelve miles
to Santa Rosa. and the horses are
fresh
She OWNED what was in his mind,
Of which his twinkling eyes and sheep
ish, boyish grin gave sufficient adver-
tisement, and she smiled and nodded
acquiescense.
We'll cut across by Bennett Val
ley" he said. TITS nearer that way"
There was little difficulty, once in
Santa Rosa, of finding Slosson. He
and his party had registered 1T the
Oberlin Hotel. and Daylight encoun-
tered the young hammer-thrower HIM
self In the ONCE.
Look here, son." Daylight announc-
ed. as soon as he had introduced Dede,
