program and get back to the girl he
loved.
One afternoon Alan and his COM
panion had been working since day
break on a particularly perilous I'M
dertaking-the painting Of sign on
the face of a cliff looking sheer down
over 5000 feet into rock strewn ra-
vine. Alan had left Prevoast to put
on the finishing touches, and had gone
to the near settlement to arrange for
the removal Of their traps to their
next stop.
Returning, his heart stood still as
he neared the cliff A man was hack
ing at the ropes sustaining the frail
platform hundred feet down. He
sawed them through, there was a
crash below, blood-curdling shrek.
Burt Ridgeway!" exclaimed Alan
in amazement and horror, and
rushed at the villain. The latter, I'M
nerved, as though he saw the wrath
of the man he had intended to plunge
to his doom, went down like a shot
as Alan hit him. his head striking a
rock There he lay, senseless.
Alan peered over the edge of the
cliff. Away down below the platform
hung, suspended by one rope. Cling
ing to a trailing cable swinging to and
fro was his helper. 1t was the work
Of a moment to descend, to venture
down the swaying cable till Prevoast
could climb over him. Alan insisted
that the terrified Prevoast precede him
to the cliff top. When he arrived
there he found Prevoast bending over
the insensible man, his hands full of
papers
The coward! the murderer" cried
Prevoast forcibly. He sought to MUIR
der you, to get you out Of the way,
SO he could win your young lady, for
see, have found some of your letters
In his pocket which he must have in
tercepted. Documents, too, that will
aid and clear me of crime imputed
to me, which made of me a fugitive
and of which he was solely guilty"
One month later, armed with a writ
ten confession from Ridgeway and the
knave eliminated from their lives,
Alan and Prevoast completed their
strange trip.
The one welded to the beautiful girl
he so loved, the other, the man whom
Alan Deane had so unselfshly de.
Tended, the dark past cleared, there
was for both a bright, promising flu

IN THE WILDERNESS
BY GEORGE ELMER COBB.

Alan Deane felt in harmony with all
the world, as he left the little vine
empowered cottage where the treas
ure of his heart was bestowed-Edna
Wilton. 1t was quite dusk. The stars
seemed to sparkle like happy eyes,
the gentle nightingales sang a sooth-
ing melody to his rapturous heart.
"She is mine-mine!" whispered
Alan in subdued ecstasy Coward
heart! Why did you not urge me to
seek the blissful assurance of her love
before?'
In rare humility he accepted the
great gift love had given him. Busi-
ness life had only recently begun for
Alan and it was decidedly desultory.
He had been disappointed as to secur-
ing employment. His, however, was
not nature to remain waiting or
idle. He picked up the first task that
came to hand. Alan was something
Of an artist. For few months he as
sisted scenic artist in getting up the
scenes for a grand spectacular drama.
This led to his introduction to sue
cessful manufacturer, who was max
ing a speciality of his celebrated RED
Rose Soap" The man had got the
idea of advertising the soap on all
the cliff sides he could find in Idaho.
The more inaccessible the place, the
more daring the feat of thus giving
his soap publicity, the more literally
was he willing to pay.
At a salary that would enable Alan
to set aside enough to begin house
keeping on in nice way, the latter
was given charge of the expedition. A

from lofty heights and scale great

red, red rose was 10 by 16 daub of
carmine, the lettering white and 80
feet in length, so the great sign could
be read miles away.
With all this arranged and a sure
ty of good money ahead, Alan went
to Edna and proposed. He had hest.

rival in the field. There was one

of wealth, and had shown Edna marked
attentions. Edna had entirely dis

weaving glowing fortunes for the flu

heard suspicious rustic, then quick
footsteps. Alan turned Just as some
one fairly leaped upon him.

Alan was strong, his assalIant no

colorless features. You spoke the

Alan was surprised, as the man, in

away from him and leaning against a

began weeping. He sobbed out in

saw that the man was in hard luck.
In kindly considerable way he made
proffer of assistance. The result
was that the poor wretch was COM
fortably housed at the little hotel in
the village that night. All Alan could
learn from him the next day was
that he was wandering derelict, anx-
1ous to get work and away from the
section which seemed to hold bitter
only for him.
When Alan started out on his
unique painting trip, the stranger, who
was named Jim Prevoast, accompan-
led him, The latter seemed to
breathe more freely and his spirits
rose considerably, the farther he got
