NEW FOOTWEAR FOR iARMY
Improved Shoe Model Will Be Hob. nailed for Service in
 Mexico

The war department appointed shoe commission in 1912 to design a model embOdying the best points of all the army shoes, surpaSsing them, if possible. The shoe which was adopted was of good materials, well made on q rational last designed by the department. The interior is per fcctIy smooth. with heel broad and low and sole moderately thick. The arch is flexible and without metal shank or other stiifening. EyeletS are used rather than hooks. The shoe reaches but little above the ankle; it is wide across the ball of the foot and has high toe cap. IL Is comfortable, neat looking, light in weight and easily re. moved or put on.
 As soon as the soldiers wear out the shoes of the type which they are now uSin: on the border they will be reiir- ted with the new type which the gov crnment has ordered. says writer in the Outlook. The newest shoe Is hob nailed and weighs three pounds seven ounces. It has been adopted for MeXi- can service because tho present type has not worn well in mountain climb ing and has been readily cut up by the malpais rock in Mexico. The shoe Is similar to that in use in the Italian army.
 Whether this model will be perma- nentIy adopted Is open to considerable doubt. The weight of the shoes and the stiffness of the leather used de- tract from the comfort of it. It has some disadvantages. therefore, but the severe usage in Mexico made 1t desir able to give this type q thorough try out in regular service.

CHAPTER <.

In three days Duane was able with great difficulty to mount his horse During daylight, by short relays, he and Jennie rode back to the main trail. where they hid again till he had rested. Then in the dark they rode out of the canyons and gullies of the Rim Rock. and early in the morning halted at the first water to camp.
 From that point they travelled after nightfall and went into hiding during the day. Once across the Nueces River. Duane was assured of safety for her and great danger for himself. At last, far ahead over a barren mes quite-dotted stretch of dusty ground. he espied patch of green and little flat, red ranch-house. He headed his horse for 1t and turned face he tried to make cheerful for Jennie's sake. She seemed both happy and sorry.
 When near at hand he saw that the rancher was a thrifty farmer. And thrift spoke for honesty. There were fields of alfalfa, fruit-trees. corrals, windmill pumps. irrigation-ditches, all surrounding a neat little adobe house. Some childrea were play'o9 In the

Opportunity.

The train was passing through a prohibition state, and the hardware drummer had forgotten tO provide himself with T flask. When the train stopped at a little station he got out and asked native on the depot plat form if there was any place in town where he could get drink.
 'YOu're just day too late. stran- ger" he replied sadly. The sheriff raided every place in town last night and confiscated all the booze They're tryin' the fellers that sold it up to the courthouse right now
 Lead me to that courthouse" com manded the drummer, pressing a coin into the natives hand. 'They might want an expert up there to sample that stuff and tell 'cm what it really Is."

hurried a little. Halfway down the lane he turned his head to peer through the cottonwoods. This time he saw Euchre coming with the horses There was no indication that the old outlaw might lose his nerve at the end Duane had feared this.
 Duane now changed his walk to Iessureiy saunter. He reached the porch and then distinguished what was x-id inside the cabin.

good-by to the rancher and his w.fe Andrews would not listen to Duanet thanks.
 "I tell you I'm beholden to you yet he declared.
 "Well, what can I do for yOuT asked Duane. 'I may come along her, again some day"
 Get down an come in, then, OI you're no friend of mine. An gooC luck to you both!"
 Duane and Jennie trotted away into the gathering twilight. The sky wa! overcast with heavy clouds; there was no air moving; the heat and oppres sion threatened storm. By and b., Duane could not see a rod in front of him, though his horse had no difficulty in keeping to the road. To his an noyance, however. a fine, misty rair set in. Jennie was not well dressed for wet weather; and. for that matter neither was he. His coat. which 1T that dry warm climate ne SeidoIr needed. was tied behind his saddle and he put it on Jennie. The nigh passed quickly despite the discomfort and soon a gray, dismal, rainy dawr greeted the travellers.
 Jennie insisted that he find s> shelter where fire could be built ,, dry his clothes. He was not in a fl condition to risk catching cold. IT fact. Duane's teeth were Chattering Tn find .-I.ft.r in, 1,n Iu "A seemed a futile task. Quite unex peCtedly. however. they happened upor q deserted adobe cabin situated a little of the road. Not only did it prove 10 have a dry interior, but also there was firewood. Water was available ir pools everywhere; however, there was no grass for the horses.
 A good fire and hot food and drink changed the aspect of their condition as far as comfort went.
 Jennie slept while Duane watched The saving of this girl meant more to him than any task he had ever as SUmed.
 AS he looked down upon her, a slight, slender girl with bedraggled dress and disheveled hair, her face, pale and quiet, little stern in sleep, and her long. dark lashes lying on her cheek, he seemed to see her fragility, her prettiness, her femininity as never before. But for him she might at that very moment have been a broken, ruined girl lying back in that cabin of the Blands. The fact gave him a feel ing of his importance in this shifting of her destiny. She was unharmed, still young; she would forget and be happy; she would live to be a good wife and mother. Somehow the thought swelled his heart. His act, death-dealing as it had been. was a noble one, and helped him to hold on to his drifting hopes. Hardly once since Jennie had entered into his thought had those ghosts returned to torment him.
