'But you and have all the stock

"I'll split mine."
IT won't-that settles that" added
Lawson, instantly.
Longstreth spread wide his hands
as if it was useless to try to convince
this man. Talk had not increased his
calmness, and he now showed more
than impatience. A dull CLINT cleaned
deep in his eyes.
"Your stock and property will last

Duane went often to see Mrs. Lara
mie and her children. One afternoeR
while he was there he saw Miss Long
streth and Ruth ride up to the door.
They carried a basket. Evidently
they had heard of Mrs. Laramie's
trouble. Duane felt strangely glad,
but he went into an adjoining room
rather than meet them.
"Mrs. Laramie, I've come to see
you," said Miss Longstreth, cheer
fully.
The little room was not very light,
there being only one window and the
doors, but Duane could see plainly
enough. Mrs. Laramie lay, hollow
checked and haggard, on bed. Once
she had evidently been a woman OF
some comeliness. The ravages OF
trouble and grief were there to read
in her worn face; it had not, however,
any of the hard and bitter lines that
had characterized her husbands.
Duane wondered, considering that
Longstreth had ruined Laramie, how
Mrs. Laramie was going to regard the
daughter Of an enemy.
$50 you're Granger Longstreth's
girl?" queried the woman, with her
bright, black eyes fixed on her visitor.
eyes," replied Miss Longstreth,
simply. "This is my cousin, Ruth
Herbert. We've come to nurse you,
take care of the children, help you in
any way you'll let us"
There was long silence.
swell, you look little like Long
streth," finally said Mrs. Laramie,
"but you're not at all like him. You
must take after your mother. Miss
Longstreth, don't know if I can-if
1 ought to accept anything from you.
Your father ruined my husband"
eyes, know" replied the girl sad
ly. "That's all the more reason you
should let me help you. Pray don't
refuse. It will-mcan much to me-"
If this poor, stricken woman had
any resentment it speedily melted In
the warmth and sweetness Of Miss
Longstreth's manner, and no sooner
had she begun to talk to the children
than both they and the mother were
won. The opening of that big basket
was an event. Poor, starved little
beggars! The havoc was wrought in
that household. The needs now were
cheerfulness, kindness, help, action
and these the girls furnished with
spirit that did Duane good.
"Mrs. Laramie, who dressed this
baby?" presently asked Miss Long
streth. Duane peeped in to see
dilapidated youngster on her knee
That sight, If any other was needed,
completed the full and splendid es-
innate of Ray Longstreth and wrought
strangely upon his heart.
"The ranger" replied Mrs. Laramie.
"The ranger!" exclaimed Miss Long
streth.
Eyes, he's taken care Of us all since
since" Mrs. Laramie choked.
"Oh! So you've had no help but
his" replied Miss Longstreth, hastily.
"NO women. Too bad. I'll send
someone, Mrs. Laramie, and I'll come
myself"
"It IL be good of you,' went on
the older woman. "YOu see, Jim had
few friends-that is, right in town.
And they've been afraid to help us
afraid they'd get what poor Jim"
"That's awful" burst out Miss
Longstreth, passionately. "a brave
lot of friends! Mrs. Laramie, don't

NO "STRAFING" OF MEXICO

General Carranza has trifled over
long with a matter which he is not
big enough to understand or to
manage and now he finds himself
confronted with the ultimate aspect
of it and he must decide for the
generations of Mexicans. If he
makes war upon the United States
he will rob that European monarch
of the title of The Biggest Fool in
Christendom." Unfortunately, his
previous actions do not give assur-
ance that he is not deliberately a
candidate for the honor.
The regret is that he has placed
himself in the position where he
must answer for all Mexico. 1t is
criminal that he and his subordi-
mates have told the people Of Mex
leo that Americans are towards,
that England has already protested
against American intervention in
