He does not love me, but tries to make
me marry first one man and then an
other. But l am an American girl
now, at heart--I do not want to sell
myself; / want to marry for Lowell Can
you understand that? Yes? No? Then
why do you look away? Have you
something that you hold against me?
All, you shake your head-but you
will not speak to me? When l was at
school in Los Angeles / saw the cow
boys in the west show, and they were
different-they were not afraid of any
danger, but they would talk, too. I
have always wanted to know you, but
you viii not let mel thought you
we're brave-like those cowboys"
She paused to make him speak, but
Hooker was ~tongue-tied. There was
something about the way she talked
that pulled him over. that made him
want to do what she said, and yet
some secret, hidden voice was always
crying. "Beware!" He was convinced
now that she had never been a party
to ~treachery; no, o even wished
him I'll.
She was very beautiful, too, in the
twilight. and when she drew nearer
he moved away. for he was afraid she
would sway him from his purpose. But
now b was waiting for some an
swer-some word from him. though
the question had never been asked.
And yet he knew what it was.
She wanted him to steal away with

border-and Phil. That was what she
always wanted, no matter what she
said, and now she was calling him a
coward.
Sure them bronco-riders are brave"
he said in vague defense; but there's
a difference between being brave and
foolish. And a man might be brave for
himself and yet be afraid for other
people"
How do you mean?" she asked.
WELL" he said, Il might be willing
to go out and fight a thousand of them
~insurrectos with one hand, and at the
same time be afraid to take you along.
Or l might"

she cried, clasping him by the hand.
you will. won't you? I'm not afraid"
NO." answered Bud, drawing his
hand away, that's just what I won't
do! And I'll tell you why. That
try up there is full of rebels-the low
est kind there are. It just takes one
shot to lay me out or cripple one of
our horses. Then I'd have to make a
fight for it-but what would happen
to your"

resolutely. I'm not afraid"
NO." grumbled Bud, you don't
know them rebels. You've been shut
up in a house all the time-if you'd
been through what / have in the last
six months you'd understand what l
mean"
eff Phil were here, he'd take mel"
countered Gracia, and then Bud lost
his head.
"Yes," he burst out, that's jest
what's the matter with the crazy fool!
That's jest why he's up across the line
now a hollering for me to save his
grill He's brave, is he? Well, why
don't he come down, then, and save
you himself? Because he's afraid to!
He's afraid of getting shot or going up
against Manuel del Rey. BY grab, 1t

talk! If he'd done what | told him to

'Why, what is the matter with you?
And what did you tell him to do?"
Il told him to mind his own bust
ness" answered Hooker bluntly.
"And what did he say?"
"He said he'd try anything-once!"
Bud spat out the phrase vindictively,
for his blood was up and his heart was
full of bitterness.
ooh deari" faltered Gracia. And
so you do not think that Phil is
brave?"
Hes brave to start things" sneered
Bud, but mot to carry EN- through"
For a moment Gracia huddled up
against a pillar, her hand against her
face, as If to ward off a blow. Then
she lowered 1t slowly and moved re-
luctantly away.
IT must go now" she said, and Bud
did not offer to stay her, for he saw
what his unkindness had done.
Il am sorry!" she added pitifully,
but he did not answer. There was
nothing that he could say now.
In a moment of resentment, driven
to evaporation by her taunts, he had
forgotten his pledge to his pardner
and come between him and his girl.
That which he thought wild horses
could not draw from him had flashed
out in a fit Of anger-and the damage
was beyond amendment, for what he
had said was the truth.

MUCH INTEREST SHOWN IN PER-
MANENT STATE FAIR IN
JACKSONVILLE

A state fair in Jacksonville is fav-
ored by a number of people who are
at work for the agricultural greatness
of this state ard one of the last to
say thai he is in favor of such fair
is d. s. Williams secretary OF the
Marion Fair Association. 1t is believ-
ed that at the meeting of the Jack
sonville Board OF Trade Thursday
evening the matter of the farm exhib-
it here Friday and Saturday will be a
live subject of comment, as well as a
state fair sometime in the future.
That the state is interested in the
exhibit to be held here, as well as the
state fair idea, is shown in the. re-
ceipts of a letter by w. l. Watson,
ag cultural adviser of the agricultu-
raj and market bureau of Duval coun-
ty, from Mr.. Williams, enclosing
membership card of the Marion coun-
ty Fair Association, and a statement
that Jacksonville is the only place
that can handle state fair" This
idea has been advanced in this city
by several, and the fact that well
known fair authority like Mr.. Will
liams favors the same gives the move
ment added impetus.
Mr.. Watson stated yesterday that
he is receiving many entries for the
exhibition here Friday and Saturday.
He also said that the show will be a
surprise to the business men of the
city. 1--WE have sugar cane for the
exhibit 2lom Baldwin which is as fine
as any grown IN southern louisiana
declared Mr.. Watson. Canned goods,
garden products, preserved articles
and such came in yesterday.-Times-

TOURNAMENT

The account of the tournament held
in Ocala in the early seventies, re-
printed in our issue of Wednesday,
was done to awaken an interest in the
tournament that is to be held during
our approaching fair, and at which
time Mr.. H. S. Chambers will act as
field marshal.
1t will be remembered that Colonel
Samuel st. George Rogers performed
the duties of field marshal at this old
tournament In one held soon after
wards by an Ocala and st. Johns
team, Colonel S. NJ. G. Gary acted as
field marshal and Mr.. John F. Dunn
and Mr.. James A. McDavid acted as
marshal of the contending teams.
We mention these facts to show
that in those days our first citizens
took part in these contests and they
were made very brilliant and popular
social events.
Colonel Gary and Colonel Rogers
for a long time were the leading
lawyers at our bar and won more than
local fame.
Colonel Rogers was lieutenant
colonel of the Second Florida regi-
ment, regiment that distinguished
itself on many field of battle.
The famous George T. Ward was
it's colonel. He lost his life in one of
the first battles in which his regiment
was engaged. He met death while
bravely attempting to capture an ex-
posed stronghold. After his death
Colonel Rogers was promoted to his
place, and afterwards served as a
member of the Confederate congress.
Colonel Gary was a member of the
Florida secession convention and
served as a captain of infantry dur
ing the war.
Mr. John F. Dunn, who, on the oc-
casion referred to was marshal, was
law partner of Colonel Gary's.. He
was president of one of Ocala's first
national banks, and to him, next to
its discoverer, we are indebted for
our phosphate industry.
Mr.. James A. McDavid, who was
field marshal of the Knights of st.
John on the same occasion. was one
of the most prominent men of his sec
ton. He was a merchant and an or
ange grower, and was prosperous

PINE ITEMS

Special Cor. to Ocala Banner:
Pine, Fla, Nov. 18.-Col. R. F.
Rogers, pastor of the Fort Mccoy
Baptist church, filled his regular ap-
pointment there last Sunday. 1t will
be of interest to those who have
known the condition there to hear that
the Baptist church is now greatly re-
vived and is fast developing into
strong church. Four members were re-
Gently added to the church there in
quiet conference meeting. Among
the many members recently joining
this congregation is some very estim-
able people. Mr.. John Melin, wife
and daughter, who are new corners"
to this section, originally from Sweed-.
en-, and Mr.. and Mrs. G. H. Whitford,
now of Pine, but who have come to
us from the north, are among some
of the most active members. -.
The church building is nearing COM
pletion. In fact plans were perfected
last Sunday under which the work
will be pushed to completion at once.
Two or three years ago, after the old
church house was sold to the negroes,
Mr.. NJ. L. McQuaig donated beautiful
lot to the membership and the build
ing was started, but the membership
was weak and had no regular pastor
and the work was heavy burden up
on the shoulders of the few faithful
ones. Mr.. McQuaig did great deal
of the work himself, being carpent-
er, and every one who could spare a
day or so gave it to the work.
The house is good one and when
completed will be credit to the
denomination and the town. There
is now membership in the church
of seventy-nine members. Pastor
Rogers last Sunday created a regular
building committee composed of G.
H. Whitford, chairman; John Melin,
w. L. Martin.
Thanksgiving evening the women
interested in the work expect to serve
a splendid supper for the benefit of
the building fund. Much interest is
manifested. Col. Rogers has done
great work at Fort Mccoy; he is
strong preacher and faithful, wise
and hard working pastor. His duties
of course, rob the community of
good deal of his PASTORAL work and
visiting that would be especially
pleasant to the Fort Mccoy people,
but they realize that it is great per-
sonal sacrifice that he leaves his
home town and great responsibilities
in the business way to come to Fort
Mccoy at all; he is appreciated.

NAT really when you come down to it,
I.rohibition doesn't always prohibit, so
i. little more criticism doesn't very
much matter.
1 We note with interest that Mr.. Will

Iour intimation that prohibition is not

Ihg that once when he was in that

\ Mr.. Anderson also wants to know
IVhy we don't give the facts relative
|to prohibition in Kansas. Well, what
are the facts? In a recent article Mr..
white, OF Emporia, declared that pro-
Ihbition had made Kansas over into
Ia sort of heaven on earth. 1t had
done away with poverty, sickness, in
sanity and vice, and the people were
living in idyllic and Edenic happiness.
Mr.. Whites thrilling words pictures

We felt almost inclined to admit that
Prohibition had "won the count" But
mot so fast. What are these cold
facts that stand in grim array? James
H. House, the editor of prohibition
paper in Kansas, surely competent
witness in a matter of this kind, ad-
nits that there are, as the prohibit
Itonists say, no insane persons in So
1 Of the los counties of the state. But
that is because the insane of the state
are kept in state hospitals. There are
now $4,000 in these hospitals, and
| the number is increasing so fast that
more hospitals will have to be built.
That is, says Mr.. House, more
drinking in Kansas now than ever be-
fore. In June last, 10000 quarts of
liquors were registered as imported
INTO Topeka, or two quarts for every
nan woman and child in the city.
We don't, of course, youch for the
accuracy of these figures; but there
they are and they are entitled to at
least as much respect as the rhetoric

A WARNING To MANY
Some Interesting Facts About Kidney
Troubles.

Few people realize to what extent
their health depends upon the con
dition of the kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases OF
serious illness, makes a chemical
analysis of the patients urine. He
knows that unless the kidneys are do
ing their work properly, the other
organs cannot readily be brought back
to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way. serious results
are sure to follow. According TO
health statistics, Bright's disease
which is really an advanced form OF
kidney trouble caused nearly ten
thousand deaths in 1913. in the state
of New York alone. Therefore. u
oehooves us to pay more attention tO
the health of these most important
organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has
had remarkable success as kidney
remedy is DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root'
the greatest Kidney, Liver and Blad-
der Remedy.
The mild and healing influence OF
this preparation, in most cases, ~
