The Lexington man went back. For a minute or two Jim Holman sat scoWllng down in indecision from his saddle. Then he admitted to himself that he had done all he could do with out becoming the aggressor. For the moment he was beaten. He looked up and from the road one of the hounds raised it's voice and gave cry. That paying afforded an excuse for leaving and Jim Holman seized it.
 "Go on," he growled. Let's see what them d-d CUTS hes ter say now"
 Mounting, they kicked their mules into jog. From the men inside the renee came no note of derision, no hint Of triumph. They stood looking out with eXpressionless, masklike faces until their enemies had passed out Of sight around the shoulder of the mountain. The Souths had met and fronted an accusation made after the enemy's own choice and method. A Jury Of two hounds had acquitted them. It was not only because the dogs had refused to recognize in Sam son suspicious character that the enemy rode on grudgingly convinced, but, also, because the family, which

CHAPTER V.

From time to time that day, neigh bors had ridden up to Spicer South's s stile, and drawn rein for gossip. These men brought bulletins as to the prog ress of the hounds, and near sundown, as.a postscript to their information, a volley of gunshot signals sounded from mountain top. No word was spoken, rose from their chairs, and drifted to- ward their leaning rifles.
 They're a-comin' hyar," said the head of the house, curtly Samson ought ter be home. Whar's Tam 'rack?"
 No one had noticed his absence un- til that moment, nor was he to be found. A few minutes later, Samson's s figure swung into sight, and his uncle met him at the fence.
 Samson, I've done asked ye all the questions I'm a-goin' ter ask ye," he said, "but them dawgs is maxim fer this house. They've jest been sighted mile below"
 Samson nodded.
 "Now"-Spicer Souths face hard ened-"I owns down thar ter the road No man kin cross that fence withouten choose ter give him leave. Eff ye wants ter go indoors an stay thar, ye kin do hit-an no dawg ner no man hain't a-goin' ter ask ye no questions. But, ef ye sees fit ter face hit out, I'd love ter prove ter these hyar men thet us Souths don't break our word. We done agreed ter this truce. I'd like ter invite 'em in, an let them damn dawgs sniff round the feet Of every man in my house-an' then, when they're plumb teetotally damn satisfied, I'd like ter tell 'em all ter go ter hell. Thet's the way feels, but I'm a-goin' ter do jest what ye says"
 Lescott did not overhear the con- versation in full, but he saw the old mans face work with suppressed pas sion, and he caught Samson's louder reply.

STOP EATING MEAT IF

Take a Glass of Salts to Clean Kid neys If Bladder Bothers You-
 Meat Forms Uric Acid.

Eating meat regularly eventually produces kidney trouble in some form or other, says a well-known authority, because the uric acid in meat excites the kidneys, they become overworked; get sluggish; clog up and cause all sorts of distress, particularly backache and misery in the kidney region; rheu- matic twinges, severe headaches, acid stomach, constipation, torpid liver. sleeplessness, bladder and urinary IT, ritation.
 The moment your back hurts or kid neys aren't acting right, or if bladder bothers you, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from aIy good pharmacy; {; take tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com bined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush clogged kid- neys and stimulate them to normal activity; also to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder disorders.

right out thar in front. I'm plumb willin' ter invite 'em in." Then, the two men turned toward the house.
 Already the other clansmen had dis appeared noiselessly through the door or around the angles of the walls.
 Fifteen minutes later, Lescott, stand ing at the fence, saw a strange caval- cade round the bend of the road. Sev- eral travel-stained men were leading mules, and holding two tawny and i'm patient dogs in leash. In their num- Der, the artist recognized his host of two nights ago.
 They halted at distance, and in their faces the artist read dismay, for. while the dogs were yelping confident ly and tugging at their cords, young Samson South-who should, by their prejudiced convictions, be hiding out in some secret stronghold-sat at the top step of the stile, smoking his pipe, and regarded them with lack-luster absence of interest. Such a calm re- ception was uncanny. After a whis- pered conference, the Lexington man came forward alone. Old Spicer South had been looking on from the door, and was now strolling out to meet the envoy, unarmed.
 And the envoy, as he came, held his hands unnecessarily far away from his

Does anybody live on Misery that -er-that you might suspect?"
 The Hollmans laughed.
 "This creek is settled with Souths thicker'n hops."
 The Lexington man looked up. He knew what the name of South meant to Holman.
 "Is there any special South, who might have particular grudge?"
 "The Souths don't need no parti'lar grudge, but thar's young Samson South. He's a wildcat"
 "He lives this way?"
 These dogs air a-makin' bee-line fer his house." Jim Holman was speaking. Then he added: i've done been told that Samson denies doin' the shootin', an claims he kin prove an alibi."
 The Lexington man lighted his pipe and poured drink of red whisky into a flask cup.
 He'd be apt to say that" he com mented, These dogs haven't any prejudice in the matter I'll stake my life on their telling the truth"
 An hour later, the group halted again. The master of hounds mopped his forehead.
 Are we still going toward Samson South's house?" he inquired.
 We're about quarter from hit now, an we hain't never varied from the straight road"
 Will they be apt to give us trouble?'
 Jim Holman smiled.
 T hain't never heered of no South submittin ter arrest by a Holman"

Tribute Money.

Fancy long ago said that the black marks on either side of the head of the haddock were made by the Apostles finger and thumb as they held him, while extracting the tribute money from his mouth. But alas for fancy! The haddock is not found in the Sea of Galilee! Most of the fish there be- long to the barbel family, and no one has ever told us authoritatively what particular variety the tribute bearing fish belonged to. The half sheker' of the tribute was 112 grains Troy weight of silver, say nearly quarter of an ounce, worth about thirteen cents today, but greatly more in those days.

Your hair becomes light, wavy, 1uf. fly, abundant and appears as soft, lus- trous and beautiful as young girls after "Danderine hair cleanse" Just try this-moisten a cloth with little Danderine and carefully draw it through your hair, taking one small strand at time.

Now and agaft came a rumor that Jesse Purvy was dying, but always hard on it's heels came another to the effect that the obdurate fighter had rallied, though the doctors held out small en- couragement of recovery.
 One day Lescott, whose bandaged arm gave him much pain, but who was able to get about, was strolling not far from the house with Samson. They were following a narrow trail along the mountain side, and, at sound no louder than the falling of a walnut, the boy halted and laid a silencing hand on the painters shoulder. Then followed an unspoken command in his companions eyes. Lescott sank down behind a rock, cloaked with glistening rhododendron leafage, where Samson had already crouched and become i'm movable and noiseless. They had been there only a short time when they saw another figure slipping qui- etly from tree to tree below them.
 For a time the mountain boy watched the figure and the painter saw his lips draw in straight line and his eyes narrow with glint of tense hate. Yet, moment later, with a nod to follow, the boy unexpectedly rose into view and his features were absolutely expressionless.
 "Mornin', Jim," he called
 The sinking stranger whirled with start and an instinetive motion as though to bring his rife to his shoul- der But, seeing Samson's peaceable manner, he smiled and his own de- meanor became friendly.
 "Mornin, Samson"
 Kinder stranger in this country, hain't ye, Jim?" drawled the boy who lived there, and the question brought a sullen flush to the others cheek bones.
 Jest a-passin' through" he vouch- safed.

 The skulking traveller decided to lie plausibly He laughed mendaciously That's the reason, Samson. I was kinder skeered ter go through this oo,ptrv in tbo opan ,,
 Samson met his eye steadily and said slowly:
 q reckon, Jim, hit mought be half es risky fer ye ter walk upstandin' along Misery es ter go a-crouchin'. Ye thinks ye've been a-shadderin' me. I knows jest whar we've been all the time. Ye lies when ye talks bout passin' through.

 Jim Asberry's face darkened but he said nothing. There was nothing to say. He was discovered in the ene- mys country and must accept the enemy's terms.

All There Was for Him.

A poor shoemaker's apprentice was sent to his masters home with some work. It was early in December, and when the lad arrived at the house he found the good wife engaged baking the special bread ready for Christmas.
 The smell was delicious, and, sniff1ng strongly, the apprentice exclaimed heartily:
