Without word four pistols flashed
over the precipice, and four men
turned and walked down the path.
She steadied herself a moment
against the bluff, then, throwing her
own pistol over the cliff, she folded
the boy in both arms and continued
her Whitehead journey.
Suddenly the man awoke. He
dropped his rifle and snrano down
the path.
Hey, sheriff" he shouted, "come
back. She didn't Kill him. I'll give
up"
But the sheriff and his men had
stood before woman. They kept
right on down the path, and the man
could go no further, for the woman
had staggered into his arms, holding
up their boy for him to kiss.

"Hullo, Brandish'' came the cry
do you want to surrender"
No answer.
I'VE got 70 have YOU, Brandish. an
we don't want to use no meanness TO
DO it. VIII you surrender ?"
No answer.
"All right. We're goin' to send
your woman an kid ahead. while we

the open, we'll sure get you. Do YOU
want to surrender? We hate to do
it"
No answer.
Peerlng over his boulder, the hunt
ed man saw that there was some de-
bate among the party, but their
voices hardly reached him. Then he
saw the tall, slender, cotton-gowned
figure of his wife step forward along
the path, bearing in her arms the
one being that his own being had
yearned over in undreamed of depths
of love.
Instinctiyely his eyes glinted over
the sights, their fascination hypno-
tizing him. With a power OF percep-
ton that his mind had never known
before, it came over him that it was
all horrible contradiction but,
manli6e, he felt that the whole con
tradiction was in his wife's dis
loyalty
And in the meantime, with face
drawn, and white as death, she was
stepping along the path, while behind
her came the posse. And still his
eyes glinted balefully down the
bright, black barrel.
He was seeking for an exposed arm
or head, but they had flashed in and
out of his vision so quickly that the
tension of it was tearing out his
nerves, and he knew that if he did
not pull his eyes from those cruel
sights he must soon obey the over
powering instinct to shoot.
A dozen times he had almost
pressed the trigger. He knew that at
any moment the irrevocable twinge
might come. Beads of perspiration
poured unheeded down his face.
Then the spell was broken. They
were over halfway along the ledge
when ne saw the woman's free hand
slip into her dress-bosom and draw
out something that cleaned in the
sunlight, With a quick, but careful
movement, she stepped with her back
to the bluff, then completed the turn
until she faced the posse, her arm
oustretched.
"Stand still"
Her shrill treble cry reached him.
Stand still while tell you what
a fine passe o towards You are. If
you move back another foot, Tom
Burton, I'll blow the sheritf's head
off"
The man last in line ceased his
retreat.

nothing to you to get woman an
her child to protect you while you

MANY PUT Their FAITH
IN OLD-TIME BELIEFS

may look for protracted Illness or
death. 1t is not good to dream of raj
ment of many colors. Black clothes in
a dream means a speedy recovery. To
dream of fine clothes is good sign,
but tattered garments mean bad luck
Good, rich fruit is fine dream and
means luck, but II the fruit is bitter
look out for enemies. Gooseberries in
dicate to a husband or wife the COM
ing of children. A spinster who dreams
of grapes will soon be happily mar
ried.
Dreams of hens and chickens mean
danger. On the other hand, to dream
of geese is a favorable omen. A swan
is the best dream bird of all--it means
everything pleasant A barking dog is
bad-very bad.
When one dreams OF being naked
and cold he is threatened with power
ty; either that or he is out from under
the covers. 1t is good sign to dream
of giving or receiving kisses, meaning
friendship. good health and earthly
prosperity. No one could wish for
better dream than to see the rising
sun, a clear moon or bright stars, for
they all denote riches, Joy and good
news. But beware of a waning moon,
a clouded sun or pale star. A rain
bow means early news of a pleasant
nature and probably a journey. A
young man who dreams of snow is due
very shortly for wedding bells. Dreams
of thunder and lightning mean all sorts
of good luck.
And 80 on. For every possible
dream you will always find some one
who knows the answer. Superstition
seems grounded into our composite na-
lures. But IL the subject should take
hold of you and If some omen should
worry you there is a simple way to
shed your distress and turn all bad
luck into good luck.
This system is recommended by the
! best of authorities and has never been
known to fail. To turn everything to
your advantage and enjoy the fullness
of the earth there is just one thing to
! do. 1t is quite simple, but it will Off
set any evil influence that has been
working against you.
This bit o knowledge comes down
from the ancients Here it is:
Wear a piece of coral around your
neck and you can't go wrong.

Cough Medicine for Children

Mrs. Hugh Cook, Scottsville, N. Y.
says: about FIVE years ago when
we were living in Garbutt, N. Y.
doctored two OF my children suffering
from colds with Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and found 1t just as repre-
sented In every way. It promptly
checked their coughing and cured
their colds quicker than anything
ever used" Obtainable everywhere

If there are thirteen persons invited
for that dinner party-have care and
watch your step. Superstitious per-
sons say that surely if there are thir-
teen at table one viii die before the
year is out.
That superstition, like most others,
goes hundreds of years back. 1t is
founded on the fact that there we're IL
plates at the Last Supper. Strangely
enough, too, there is strong chance
that one out of the thirteen win die
within the year. Some one has figured
out a law of probabilities that shows
that Of thirteen persons Of different
ages. one is likely to die within year
from a certain date. But II there were
fourteen or fifteen at the table the
death chance would be increased. 1t
would seem, then, that adding another
person or two to break the hoodoo and
to get away from the fatal thirteen
would in reality be making the chanc-
es of some one dying all the greater.
The bowling of dog is certain to
portend death. Certainly. There is
no means Of knowing how many per-
sons hear dog when he is bowling.
and It is altogether probable that some
one of the neighbors will die. They
usually do. Yet, on the other hand,
many persons have heard many dog
howl and lived to ripe old age in spite
Of it. And maybe the dog howled be-
cause he was cold or hungry, or both.
Go ahead and be superstitious IL you
want to.
Suppose you split the salt at the Ia
BILE. What then? Nothing much, ex'
cept that some one, as usual, is sched.
uled for an early death. Salt in an
cient times was held to be a symbol OF
purity and friendship. To spill the salt
is to break the image. Despite this
well-founded superstition 1t is surpris
ing the number Of persons who have
survived tumbled-over salt cellars.
And there are dreams. What can
be said of the person who 'interprets'
dreams? Where do they get it? There
are many, many persons who believe
i'm dreams and the most general rule
seems to be to take dreams contrary
To dream of an anchor is good; II
gives hope to good fortune. If sici
person dreams of white clothing he
