capital at it's sources, that built up or
systems of industry, sent Penn
rhyn striding through the open door into
the kitchen. With the sure instinct of the
boy, he looked behind the
door for row of pals; then darted out
the door and up the hill in obedience
to the woman's gesture.
Vague memories of boyhood stirred
the heavy old bucket from the stone ledge
and sent it hurtling down to the bottom
of the well. Its depth was vouched for
by the space of time that elapsed before
he heard the hollow splash.
THE little woman looked up wildly from
the bed over which she bent as Penn
rhyn resntered the room, dripping pail
in each hand. 80,
"Oh, do something!7 she gasped. "Do
it quick! He's awful bad!'
Expert skill was lacking to Pennrhyn,
and of the implements that modern
science has provided for the relieving of
suffering he had none. Armed only with
the glimmerings of memory and with
powerful natural intelligence, he hurled
himself single-handed against the
blind forces of disease and looming
death. His own overpowering fatigue
was forgotten. The instinct of COM
bat which for Black Jack was life
itself awoke in his veins; and, had
the fever-crazed man beneath his
hands been his brother instead of a
nameless stranger, Pennrhyn could
not have struggled for his life with
more tireless and indomitable reso-
\ LUTON to conquer.
A moment later, in spite of the
t frantic remonstrances of the wife, he
had stripped the quivering body of
the patient to the night air, and with
dogged clumsiness had begun to wet
it down with towel dipped in ice
cold water. The result was almost
Immediately apparent. The hoarse
mutterings ceased, the twitching
limbs relaxed into comparative tran
quillity. Pennrhyn. picking up the
two pals. dashed back to the we'll
to refill them with the ice-cold water.
Then, having inaugurated clumsy
system of cold packs for the burning
head and body, he studied his next
step.
"How long since he's eaten? A
little tea yesterday and nothing else?
Say. he's not so deirous as he seems,
to renig on pork and beans! Listen;
what they gave me was milk. Got
any milk in the house,"
The young woman, in the act of
wringing out towel in the icy water,
motioned toward the rear of the
house. For the first time Pennrhyn
became conscious of cows lowing.
Poor old Whiteface-just listen
to how she's cryin! She amt ben
MIXED tonight. Mel was helpin' me
with him. an then sent him off f'r
the doctor. If das' leave him, l
could go an milk, myself. But
Her eyes roved despairingly toward
the bed, then to the tiny crib against
the wall. t,,+
Pennrhyn drew long breath. This
thing must not be done by halves.
"I'll milk he said.
In the little byre, lit by the greenish
flame of his electric torch. Pennrhyn

"Ill milk" he said.
In the little byre, lit by the greenish
flame of his electric torch, Pennrhyn
obstinatey set himself at work that he
had not attempted for nearly thirty years.
The COW switched nervous tail across
his face as he clumsily seated himself on
the milking stool. A long forgotten oath
of the farm rose spontaneously to his lips:
"By heck. I'll learn you!'
And he tied the tail to rope that hung
from ring in the wall for that evident
purpose. Then. sitting down on the three
legged stool. the financier set his smooth,
well manicured fingers to the accomplish
ment of mankinds most primitive task.
A SARDONIC grin twisted Black Jacks

back to his unknown antagonist in the
