woman, with the mother love for all
the children of men shining in her

And they did. She made them do
it. The poor young man, pallid and
wan, lay back in his bed listening to
the wash of the Dead Mans Sea.
The doctors gathered in the room and
unpacked their instruments. Then
they looked about them. I'VE can't

head sadly; no operating table"
That's a fact" assented another.
And they begun to replace their in
struments. The woman appeared at
the door. Why, what's the trouble?"
she asked anxiously. Upon being told
she still stood blocking the door.
You MUST operate and save this
boy" she exclaimed. Il viii not have

These she had the carpenters bring
to her house She had them plated

The young man got well. This wo-
man nursed him back to health. When
he left her home TO 20 back to his
work in the world he said: "How can
ever repay you for all that you have
done for me?" The woman smiled
and said Il malready repaid by see

Years later fire destroyed the wo-
mans house and wiped her savings
away The shock and the loss were
too much for her. She became very i'll.
No friends; no money. 1t had been
a long. uphill fight; she had done
her best and lost. She would fold
her hands now and give up and go
TO join her dear husband who had
been waiting so long for her in the
Spirit Land.
Some one knocked at her door
Come in" she murmured in a weak
and despairing voice. 1t was the
young man she had saved and nursed
in the years gone by. He brought
five hundred dollars that he had Dor
rowed and hurried with to her rented
home as soon as he heard of her mis-
fortunes.
Then came the master of the mine
and built her a cottage to have and
to hold as long as she lives. She is
happy now, and free from care. this
woman who left her home behind the
trim English hedges so long ago and
came to live in the Mule mountains
with the desert all around her and
the smoke from the mine chimneys
in the sky. She cast her bread upon
the waters of the past and it came
back to her again. Gratitude sleeps
for a long time. but it never dies in
the world.

The failure of the custodian of the
county Jail at Stafford to securely fast
en- the door which is supposed to bar
men stopping there from the freedom
of the outside world. gave them the
opportunity to inhale large gulps OF
fresh ozone filtered down from the
Graham mountains on this Tranquil
city and its environs. On Monday ev-
ening four of the six men confined in
the lower tier of the county hotel
heard the knock of opportunity, heed
ed it and walked out into the midnight
air. They have made their getaway
probably to some hole-in-the-wall in
the nearby hills. The sheriff would
appreciate a tip as to the whereabouts
of these men who are back a little for
board and lodging with him.
