didn't live, after 1t once learned the
lesson, that would whirl in the face
Of the doubled quirt.
More keenly than ever. during that
week in the office, did Daylight realize
that he had no social, nor even human
contacts with Dede. The situation was
such that he could not ask her the
simple question whether or not she
was going riding Eext Sunday. Thus
he found another card In the hand
the mad god had dealt him. How i'm
portant that card was to become he
did not dream. yet he decided that 1t
was pretty good card.
Sunday came, and Bob, out in the
Piedmont hills, behaved like an angel
His goodness at times was Of the
spirited. prancing order. but other
wise he was 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 Maraea Valley. Just
after passing the foot of the descent,
he heard the hoof beats Of cantering
horse. It was from ahead and coming
toward him. What If 1t were Dede?
He turned Bob around and started to
return at a walk. The canter came
nearer, but he faced straight ahead
until, he heard the horse behind check
to walk. Then he glanced over his
shoulder. 1t was Dede. The recognl-
ton was quick, and. with her, accom-
panied by surprise. What more
natural thing than that, partly turn
ing his horse. he should wait 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 thing
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.

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.

Of her first remarks. II imagined
you were welded to get-there-quick

Thus, and to his great relief. they
launched on a topic of mutual inter.
est. He told her about Bobs tricks,
and of the whirl and his scheme to
overcome 1t; and she agreed that
horses had to be handled with a Ger.
tain rational severity. no matter how
much one loved them. There was
Nab, which she had had for eight
years, and which she had had to break
of stall-kicking. The process had been
painful for Nab, but 1t had cured her

said.
II really can't remember the first

they couldn't keep me away from the

Colorado River Is Low
The Colorado river is lower at pres
ent than at the same time for severa
years. The discharge at the reclama-

ond feet. The Yuma Examiner says:
The lowest stage OF the river in year;
was reached January 19. 1906. wheI
the river dropped 10 1850 second feet
and he previous year il was even low
er. The mean discharge at Yuma fol
the past SO years shows that the Colo
RADIO has seldom exceeded 1000 secont
feet fer the month Of January. Durin&
the wears from. 1878 to 1888 the mean
discharge Of the river fell below 200j
/ second feet on several occasions, th(
/ lowest record being the month of DC
tober, 1873. 1902 second feet. Pre-
yious to the last few years the rec
ords were not taken with the care eX
ercised by The officials of the reclama-
ton 1aryice. and therefore may no
have been accurate. Judging from th'
past if the cold weather continues L
