An Inside Bath

Says q glass Of hot water with
phosphate before breakfast

This excellent, eommon.senss

adopted by millions.

Physicians the world over recon-
mend the inside bath, claiming this is
Of vastly more Importance than out
side cleanliness, because the skin
pores do not absorb impurities into
the blood, causing Ill health, while the
pores in the ten yards of bowels do.
Men and women are urged to drink
each morning, before breakfast, a
glass of hot water with a teaspoonful
of limestone phosphate in 1T, as a
harmless means of helping to wash
from the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels the previous days indigestible
materials, poisons, sour bile and tox.
ms: thus cleansing, sweetening and
purifying the entire alimentary canal
before putting more food into the
stomach.
Just as soap and hot water cleanse
and freshen the skin, so hot water
and limestone phosphate act on the
elifninative organs.
Those who wake up with bad
breath. coated tongue, nasty taste or
have a dull, aching head, sallow COM
plexion, acid stomach; others who are
subject to bilious attacks or consti-
patton, should obtain quarter pound
Of limestone phosphate at the drug

sufficient to demonstrate the value of
inside bathing. Those who continue

Like n swift shadow and a. noise

toward the dark wall OF rock. Every
nerve was Il strung wire. Fol n little
while his mind was cluttered and
clogged with whirllng thoughts, from
which, like n flashing scroll, unrolled
the long, battling order of action. The
game was o in his hands. He must
cross Mount Ord ut night. The feat
was improbable, but It might be done.
He must ride into Bradford, forty
miles from the foothills, before eight
o'clock next morning. He must tele-
graph MacNelly to be in Val Verde
on the twenty-ffth. He must ride
back to Ord To intercept Knell, face
him, and while the iron was hot strike
hard TO win Poggin's half-won interest
us he had wholly won Fletchcr's.
Failing that last, he must let the out
laws alone to bide their time In Ord,
to be free TO ride to their new Job

must plan to arrest Longstreth. II

seemed to be the iron consequences

Under the wall the shadows were
black, only the tips OF trees and crags

down into the ebony gulf pierced by

membered the shapes, the points, the

called out: IF you gents air hungry

The outlaws piled inside, made a
great hustle and clatter as they sat
10 their meal. Like hungry men, they
talked little.
Duane waited there for n while, then
g~uariedly got up and crept round to
the other side Of the cabin. After he
became used to the dark again he
ventured TO steal along the wall TO the
window and peeped In. The outlaws
were In the first room and could not

"My Gawd, Dodge, what d you buss
in here ferf" he said, plaintively, ann
slowly stepped forward. His nctioo
was that of Il man to himself.
He meant he had been sponsor for
Duane and now he would stand by
him.
Back, Fletcher! !" called Duane, and
his voice made the outlaw jump.
Hold on, Dodge, an you-all, every
body" said Fletcher. "Let me talk,
seem Tn In the wrong here"
His %persuaslons did not ease the
strain.
"Go ahead. Talk" said Poggin.
Fletcher turned to Duane. "Pard.

"But what ii you come fer without

distress. He saw nothing but catas-
trophe in this meeting.
"Jim, I amt pressin' my company
more. But when I'm wanted bad"
Fletcher stopped him with n raised
hand. Then he turned to Poggin with
n rude dignity.
"Poggy, he's my pard, an he's riled.
I never told him n word tibet d make
him sore. l only said Knell hadn't nc
more use fer him than fer Inc. Now

my pard. l vouch fer him. VIII you
stand fer me? There's goin' TO be hell
If you don't. An us with q big jot
on hand!"
While Fletcher toiled over his slow
earnest persuasion Duane had his
gaze rIveted upon Poggin. There was
something leonine about Poggln. He
was tawny. He blazed. He seemed
beautiful. But looked at closer with
glance seeing the physical man, instead
Of that thing which shone from him, he
was of perfect build, with muscles
that swelled and rippled, Dulging his
clothes. with the magnificent head and
face Of the cruel, fierce, t~awny-eyed
jaguar.
Looking at this strange Poggin. in
stinctively divining his abnormal and
hideous power, Duane had for the
first time In his life the inward quak-
Ing fear of n man. II was like u
~cold-tongued bell ringing within him
and numbing his heart. The old
instructive firing OF blood followed. but
did not drive AVA that fear. lie
knew. He felt something here deeper
than thought could go. And he hated

That individual had been considering
F%letcher's appeal.
"Jim, | ante up" he said, IAN II
Phil doesn't raise us out with n big
hand-why, he'll get called, an your

Every eye shifted To Knell. Tie was
dead white. He laughed, and anyone
| hearing that laugh would have realized
his intense anger equally with an as
surance which made him master Of the
situation.
'Poggin, you're n gambler, you are

direct line with the light, and thus was
able TO see better. Then he advanced
noisclessly but swiftly toward the back
of the house. There were trees close
to the wall. He would make no noise,
and he could scarcely I've seen-if only
there was no watchdog! But all his
outlaw days he had taken risks with
only his useless life at stake; now,
with that changed. he advanced,
stealthy and bold as an Indian. He
reached the cover of the trees, knew
he was hidden In their shadows, for
at few paces' distance he had been
able to see only their tops. From
there he slipped up to the house and
felt along the wall with his hands.
He came to n little window where
light shone through. He peeped in.
He saw n room shrouded In shadows.
n lamp turned low, n table, chairs.
He saw an open door, with bright flare
beyond, but could not see the fire.
Voices came indistlnctly. He went on
round that end Of the cabin. Fortune
favored him. There were bushes, an
old shed. n wood-plle, all the cover
he needed at that corner. He did not
even need TO crawl.
Before he peered between the rough
corner of wall and the bush growing
close to II, Duane paused n moment.
This excitement was different from
that he had always felt when pursued.
II had no bitterness, no pain, no dread.
There was as much danger here, per-
haps more, yet 1t was not the same.
Then he looked.
He saw n bright fire, n red-faced
man bending over II, whistllng, while
he handled n steaming pot. Over him
was n rooted shed built against the
wall, with two open sides and two
supporting posts. Dunne's second
glance, not so blinded by the sudden
bright light, made out other men,
three In the shadow. two in the flare,
but with backs to him.
