The Preacher reached him as the
other turned away, followed by his
men, who shouldered their tools and
disappeared through the underground
in a shambling file, abandoning the
fight for other means.
"A Stranger" asked the newcomer,
extending that fine white hand, "a
stranger at the camp?"
"The new owner, father" voiun-
teered Daily, "Mr. Sandry."
"Ah, yes! You are young, sir, in the
ways of the world! But God guides the
feet of the young. 1t is labyrinthian

butterflies along it and primroses, and
both are so easily trod underfoot!
All, SO easily! And a little farther
along there is regret and shadow. All,

CHAPTER XII.
An Unrecorded Deed.


The Preacher proved to be the
strangest thing in all this strange
country to Sandry as he watched him
in the days that followed. He spoke
but seldom and then with a quaint pre-
cision, beauty of speech and thought
that amazed the man from the East.
But they were old thoughts, Sandry
found at last, thoughts formulated in
the fire and enthusiasm of youth, hence
still burning when youth had fed and
age had brought it's empty seeming.
And it is there" he said to himself,
that S'letz gets her manner of speech.
though her visions are her own, born
of her centered SOUL
At the end of the week Sandry went
to Salem. When he returned his face
was drawn as if from loss of sleep.
and he summoned Daily to the office.
Sandry pulled open drawer in his
desk and took out the deed to the East
Belt.
This" he said tensely. has never

at the land office and our deed is not
there. Instead there is brand new
homestead filing in the name of T. j..
O'Connel. Daily, either old Frazer was
crooked or a fool"
There was a strained note in the
owners voice. His foreman sat In the
tip-tilted office chair, open-mouthed
and round-eyed.
Then Hampden's got tn strangle-
holt-damn his soul to hell! He
knows about the contrack an he'll blk

"Then why did he sell me the East

He waved the folded slip.

Pitiful sometimes in his eagerness.
But he's loved from Seattle to Santa

Sandry, changing the subject; we'll
rush the work on the double quick. Put

meant what he said. There's some

the far metropolis-and she sat Black
Bolt like soldier! Sandry watched
her go with an unconscious pride III
her urban appearance. She rode
astride in his saddle, but though he adj
mired every line of the splendid pair,
he was conscious of comparison
which left something to be desired.
Black Bolt with Siletz swinging drunk

stride. had been one. They had been
the West. This was the East-and it
was artificial.
While Sandry stood at the block
watching Miss Ordway cantering down
the valley. he heard a light step be-
hind and Siletz came around the filing
shed. He turned to her, smiling into
her eyes, which lighted slowly as they
rested on him.
Where have you been, Little
Squaw?" he asked.
Over the hog-back."
Eight miles! You shouldn't go off

ness?"
Sandry moved slightly and Siletz
glanced across his shoulder down the
valley. A gasp, as Of indrawn breath
made him look up.
Her lips were open and intense as
constituent sat upon her face. For a
moment she stared at the distant
rider. Then she whirled, so swiftly
that one of her long braids whipped
across Sandry's face like q lash. and
dashed into the lean-to.
When she emerged the dark color
had drawn out of her checks and lips,
leaving them ashen. Her face worked
and Sandry fell back a step at sight
of her eyes. They were all savage,
flaming with a rage which. astounded
him.

catching her by the wrist as she
passed him, II didn't know you felt
like this about the horse!"
But she flung his grasp hose in a
perfect fury and dashed up the steps
to the kitchen the sobs coming wildly.
With an indescribable sensation
sending shivers down his spine. the
young owner went to his Office.
When Miss Ordway returned late in
the day her smart habit was stained
with mud, her little cap was charm
ingly awry, and she bore all the ear.

as Sandry assisted her 20 dismount,

"What?" cried Sandry, you did
that? Well, for the love of heaven!
No wonder you can portray other
folks emotions! You simply go out
and make your situations!"

KNEW USE OF ANESTHETlCS
Conclusive Evidence That Ancient
Surgeons Were Familiar With
Methods of AIIevating Pain.

Those who imagine that surgice'
knowledge began with later genera
tons, and that the discovery OF
chloroform, revolutionized the science
should read an article recently pub
lished by DR.. j. de FentOn in the South
African Journal of Science.
Various anesthetizing media and
methods were we'll known both in
antiquity and during the Middle Ages.
Homer mentions the anesthetic eff
fects of nepenthe; Herodotus states
that the Scythians obtained similar
effects from the vapors of hemp. pro-
duced by throwing hemp seed on hot
stones. A Chinese physician of the
third century B. c. gave his patients
q preparation of hemp to make them
insensible during surgical operations.
The most important anesthetic of
ancient and medieval times was, how
ever, wine of mandragora, the use OF
which mentioned by a great number
of early writer's, and is referred to
by Shakespeare. More recently, in
the year 1850, the German surgeon
Weiss, better known as Albinus, am
putated the foot of Augustus LII, king
of Poland, while under the influence
of Inandragora.
Two other anesthetizing agencies
were employed in very early times,
viz, arterial compression and hyp-
notism.
1t is said that the ancient Assyr-
ians produced a lethargic state by
compression of the carotid artery be-
fore performing the operation of cir
cumcision.

TO THE KIDDIES.-w wonder how
many little. boys and little girls are

how many writer's today talk to them
and tell stories like mamma and
papa do-of fairies, heroes, cham
pions, etc. l have a real live story
for you, boys and girls, of a real live
hero and after 1 tell it you may guess
who it is.
Once upon a time there was a lit
tie boy, born in America, who loved
to play games, as we all do. He had
wealthy parents, but don't get the
idea that wealth spoiled him.
When the Creator picks champion
to carry on His work He picks one
that nothing will spoil. Our hero
grew up like other boys. He loved
all the healthful exercises, such as
playing, rowing, fishing, hunting,
yachting and many other things.
When he went into race or con-
test he went in to win and he gener-
ally did. Today, as he stand up fights
the peoples battles he fights to win.
But children, l am getting ahead of
my story. He finished school, which
all boys and girls should do. He went
to college, he entered contests in big
games and won his share. He later
went into politics to speak for a big
section of people in a large city at
council meetings.
The old fountains of wisdom and
wise leaders of this council had be-
come somewhat antique and fossil
lied. They discounted the true value
of our hero because they thought he
was young, knew little of worth and
they did not want to give up their
own prestige to a new member.
But great discussion was on con-

So it's time our people adopted
such a system that will guarantee

corning crime. All were trying to
think of methods to lessen the crime
waves. Our hero, like Teddy, had
been a cowboy out west, where the
great dome of heaven gives health,
ambition and love of the universe,
where men learn chivalry for women
and justice for humanity Both came
from the G. o. P, if you know what
that is.
Teddy championed the cause of our
mammas and their right to vote. Our
hero championed the kiddies. He
thought-in his noble heart that people
have no business to have little boys
and little girls unless they take an in
terest in them, play games with them
and provide place to play. At these
council meetings he was young and
did not have as yet the experience
old councilmen had, but he did his
best
He spoke right up and asked for
paltry $1,000 to start the first play
grounds for kiddies, so that they
might have exercise and play for their

rified at this terrible waste of money,
because our hero wanted $1,000 to

These old wise men of our temple of
justice asked how can Fairgrounds
lessen crimes?
But, Riddles, your champion stood
up and fought your battles when you
needed a friend. Now, children, do
you remember of how Daniel dared to
stand alone because he knew he was
right? Do you remember how the
14-year-old boy went into the temple
and talked to the wise men there I'M
