"And perhaps l had better explain 10
Mr.. Whalen that his daughter is safe.

Ford here will look after you while I
am gone"
Flo sighed happily. Many men would
have been nasty and said mean things,
but Mr.. Temple was different He was
so manly and strong, she thought with a
thrill, that she just knew she could trust
him. She had almost forgotten the pain
in her foot, and after the two men mad
left the room she sank back on the couch
with smile on her face, her eyes fitting
Greamily over the walls as she thought
that after all she was not a bit sorry she
had worn those silly things
Toward evening John came in to say
goodbye. He held her hand just a trile
longer than good form prescribed, but
Flo forgot TO resist-an invalid is sup
posed to forget such things.
She had been sleeping for several hours
when Ford brought her supper. He
watched her with a pleased expression as
she ate with great relish.
There was a fellow here looking for
you," he told her. Called himself Ned
Newton. Fierce-looking character, looked
as if he wanted to burn somebody in oil.
Happen to know him?"
II happened that Flo did. Hes too
funny" she laughed. when he makes
love he acts like "a man chOpping

Ford regarded the tip of his boot medi-
tatively. 'One good swift kick made him
change his mind pretty quick" he
drawled.
When Ford had left she unbound her
hair-she cared no longer who saw it
and lay thinking Of a certain young man
who was struggling through the snow

for her sake. The situation presented

Fifty years ago today the offensive
military operators OF the Red River cma-
paign concluded in a sharp engagement
at Prairie Damn. Ark, in which a strong
force OF Confederate cavalry and artil-
lery, under Gen. Sterling Price, was
driven back by a Federal army under
Gen. Frederick Steele.
Gen. Steele was to have co-operated
with the force under Gen. n. p. Banks,

Infinite possibilities of a romantic ma

ing with puzzled eyes at a photograph on
the mantelpiece. 1t was a portrait of a
girl with big laughing eyes and tumb-
ling locks of hair almost as golden as
her own. Flo frowned. though there was

and a longing to find out seized her. II
was a painful maneuver, but somehow
she dragged herself across the floor and
snatched the photograph from its pedes-
tai. She turned to the back and read:
In the depths Of thine affection
Plant one sweet forget -me-nOt.
Again Flo frowned She forgot the
ache in her ankle and for an instant il
seemed as If all the pain of which she
was capable had fitted to more vital
quarters Then she blushed angriIy,

thought came to her that there was no
law Of the land which forbade a good
looking young man having the photo

There was but one thing TO do-she must
forget John Temple, and perhaps some
day when she had grown older and wiser
she would marry Ned Newton and win
the approval of the Long Gulch Ladies'
Sewing Circle and wonder how she could
ever have been foolish enough to think
that man like John Temple could be in

like herself.
The simple little backwoods girl went
to sleep that night with tears glistening
in her eyes-tears OF anger and indigna-
