brief duration and Law always man
aged to Danish boredom. Nor did he
seem to waste thought upon the ma.
ture of that grim business which
brought him to this place. Quite the
contrary, In the afternoon he put his
mare through her tricks for Alaire'
editicatiOn, and gossiped idly of what
ever interested his guest.
Then as the sun edged to the west
and Mrs. Austin became restless, he
saddled Bessie Belle and led her down
the gulch into safer covert. Return
ing. he carefully obliterated all traces
of the camp. He watered the ashes of
the fire, gathered up the telltale scraps
of paper and fragments Of food, and
then when the place suited him fell to
examining his rifle.
Alalre watched him with interest
Where shall CO." she asked, land
what shall I do?"
"YOu just pick out a good cover be-
yOnd the water hole and stay there,
ma'am. 1t may be long wait, Tor
something may have happened. II so,
we'll have to lie close. And don't wor-
ry yourself none. ma'am: he won't
make no trouble"
With the sunset the water hole lay
sleeping.
Alaire's retreat was far from COM
Portable; there was an ants nest some
where near her and she thought of
moving; but suddenly her breath
caught and her heart jumped uncon-
trollably. She crouched lower. for d.
rectly opposite her position, and out
lined against the sky where the sharp
ridge cut 1t, was the figure of q
mounted man. She was conscious that
keen and hostile pair Of eyes was.
searching the coverts surrounding the
charcO.
Then, as silently as 1t had appeared,
the apparition vanished beyond the
ridge. Alaire lay close, as she had
been directed, praying that the horse
man had been warned; but shortly she
heard again the rustic Of stiff
branches, and out into the opening rode
a Mexican. He was astrlde g. wiry
gray pony, and In the strong twilight
Alaire could see his every feature-the
swarthy cheeks, the rowing eyes be-
meath the black felt hat. A carbine
lay across his saddle horn, lariat
was cOiled beside his leg, cartridge
belt clrcled his waist. There was
familiar about the fellow,
but at the moment Alaire could not
determine what 1t was.
After one swift, appraising glance
the newcomer rode straight to the
verge Of the water hole and dismount-
ed; then he and his horse drank side
by side.
1t was the moment for a complete
and effective surprise, but nothing
happened. Why didn't Law act? Alaire
bent low, straining eyes and ears. but
no command came from the Ranger.
Then, as If in answer to her perplex-
lty, a second horseman appeared, and
the woman realized how simply she
had been fooled.

sumes a malignant type, in which the
eruption may not appear in periods
ranging from five to IL days. In
these cases the system is
greatly Frustrated after the excite
ment of the first day or two. and de-
lirium, and eve coma may set in.
Sometimes the eruption recedes
after it has appeared. This always
increases the fever and the bronchial
irritation and is a troublesome COM
plication; while in the severe forms
of the disease serious results may
follow if the eruption is not speedily
brought to the surface again.
Chronic congestion of the bronchial
tubes and larynx often remains as a
sequence of measles. and thus a dis
tressing cough is kept up. This con-
dition may in time lead to consump-
ton II not arrested.

LOCAL MEASLES SITUATION


DR.. G.. M. Roberts. County Health
officer. reports that there we're 20
cases of measles in Eureka and on
Ruby Hill Friday night. The first
and second casesLEdgar Father and
Peter Merialdo-have already sufi-
GENTLY recovered to be up and
around again. and their rapid re-
covery shows that the present dis
ease here is not SO severe if proper
care is exercised.
The Eureka School Boards held a
joint meeting Friday evening to con-
slider the question of closing the
schools. At this meeting were pres
ent also DIR. G. M. Roberts, County
Health Officer, and Principal Charles
Priest.
After carefully considering the
matter of closing the schools it was
decided that they ought not to be
closed at this time, in view of the
fact that a majority of the pupils
were still attending school. and that
since the children had otherwise al.
ready been exposed to the measles,
closing the schools would not only
not help the situation. but would
work an unnecessary hardship on
those who can and want to attend.
If the attendance falls off to half OF
less, then the schools should be closed.
The Health officer stated that he
had already ordered the children in
families where there are cases of the
measles to stop school. and other
children who are afraid of catching
the disease in school are given per-
mission to stop.

adjoining States. we quote the fol-
lowing from DIR. Robert A. Gums
medical work regarding the disease:
Measles is a contagious eruptive
fever. that runs its course in about
two weeks. The mucous membrane
of the bronchial tubes and a~ir-cells
of the lungs are considerably con
gested and catarrhal symptoms pre-
vail. 1t is due to a specific poison
which prevails in all parts of the
world. 1t is communicated by inn
mediate contact with the sick, or it
may be carried long distances in
clothing. 1t occurs in wide spread
epidemics, and in solitary cases; and
is especially a disease of childhood.
When adults take the disease the
symptoms are usually more severe
than with children.
Symptoms.-The usual symptoms
of the initial stage of fevers in gen.
eral are present, and show themselves
about 10 days after exposure. They
last about four days and terminate
in a chill which is followed by the
fever. For a day or two before the
chill, symptoms of catarrh and a
slight cough are present. and these
increase as the fever progresses.
Sneezing, obstruction of the nose.
with increased secretion and dis
charge. watering and redness of the
eyes, and hoarseness, are constant
symptoms before the eruption ap-
pears, and might of themselves de-
termine the character of the disease.
Sometimes the pain in the back and
head is so severe that it suggests the
possibility of smallpox.
The eruption first appears on the
face, neck and breast, then on the
trunk and extremities. 1t is irregu-
larly ovoid in shape. raised above the
surrounding skin. of a red color. and
feels slightly rough. The single
points often run together and form
large blotches. 1t requires from one
to three days for the eruptions to
fully appear. 1t then remains red
for a couple of days and then begins
to disappear. By the seventh or
ninth day it is entirely gone. During
the development of the eruption the
fever is high. but subsidies as soo as
it is we'll out. In cases where the
eruption is tardy in making its APP
pearance the fever is more severe,
and the patient suffers severely.
The bronchial irritation is increased
with the appearance of the eruption.
and the breathing becomes difficult.
The ordinary measles is not a Sc
we're disease, but sometimes it as
