CHAPTER X
The Return

Overland Red lay concealed In
an arroyo at the foot of the range
He could overlook the desert with
out being seen. 1t was the after
non of the day following WIN
throp's departure.
Far in the south a speck moved,
almost imperceptibly. Desiring to
assure himself that no horseman
followed Winthrop, Overland Red
made no sign. The rim of Win
throp's hat became distinguish
able; then the white lacing of his
boots.
No riders appeared on the hor-
izon. Overland stepped out from
behind the rock. well, how did
you make it," he called.
Winthrop came forward YEARLY.
"No luck at all"
Couldn't find 1t, eh?"
81 counted every tie between
the tank and that little ditch I'M
der the track. The entire stretch
has been relaid with new ties"
Overland whistled. Then he
grinned and told of his find.
The news put enough life into
Winthrop to make it possible TO
follow Red up the trail.
On up the slope they toiled. At
the summit they paused again to
rest, and Overland remarked
abruptly: you amt coughed SO
much lately, Billy.
81 had a pretty bad time yester-
day morning." replied Winthrop.
We'll, you'll get cured and stay
cured, up here" said Overland,
hugely optimistic.
Winthrop followed Overland
silently across the range and down
into the cool depths of the hidden
canyon, where the tramp, ever
watchful of the younger mans
health, slipped from his coat and
made Winthrop put 1t on, despite
the latter's protest that he was hot
and sweating.

BILLY Dime, and one Silent Saun4
ders.
Louise became acquainted with
the new men while riding with her
uncle. One by one the new ar
rivals became devoted to her. Her
interest in the ranch work pleased
them. Walter Stone was also
pleased with his niece's interest in
the detail of the ranch work. She
was as a daughter to him. Some
day the property would be hers.
Collie had gained in height and
breadth of shoulder. He no longer
needed instruction in managing
broncho stock. He loved the life.
He became that rare quantity
among cowmen, rider who
handled and mastered unbroken
horses without brutality. This
counted heavily for him, both with
Louise and Walter Stone. Men new
to the range laughed at his method
of "gentling" horses. Later this
laughter stilled to envious desire.
And Collie looked upon his work
as a game-a game that had to be
played hard and we'll, but game,
nevertheless. incidentally, he
thought often of Overland Red. He
had searched the papers diligently
for year, before he received the
first letter from Overland. The
news 1t contained set Collie to
thinking seriously Of leaving the
Moonstone Rancho and joining his
old companion in this new venture
of gold-digging which, as Overland
took pains to explain, was paying
big" But there was Louise.
They were great friends. They had
even ridden into town together and
attended the little white church in
the eucalyptus grove.

little bag of gold. Overland de
INJURED. Winthrop argued he raI
no risk of capture, while Overland
did. 1t would mean a journey of
a day and night.
Finally Overland agreed to Win
throp's plan to make the attempt
the following day.
At the foot of the range Over
land gave his companion a canteen
and piece of gunnysack wrapped
round come bareback and jerked
beef.
Don't | need my gun this timer
queried Winthrop.
Nope, Billy. Cause why? Not
havin' a gun will be your best rec
ommend, generally speakin'. Stick
to the bugs, Billy; stick to the
bugs"
They shook hands, the broad
chested, sunburned adventurer,
genial with robust health, and the
slender, almost delicately fashion
ed fastener, who had forgotten
that there were such things as
lungs or doctors-for the time de-
ing.
Overland found his slow way
back to the hidden canyon. He
felt little lonely as he thought Of
Collie.
Then he buckled on his gun, and
started upstream. The stream dis
appeared in the sand to find some
subterranean channel and re-
appear below again. For an hour
he toiled over the rocks on up the
diminishing stream. At last the
cliffs met at the bottom in a sharp
edged "V," not over foot apart in
the stream-bed, but widening
above. Overland scrambled thru.
On the other side of the opening
he Strengthened up, breathing hard.
His hand crept to his hip. On a
sandy level few yards ahead of
him stood a ragged canvas tent. In
front of the tent was the rain
washed charcoal of an old fire. A
rusted pan, a pick, and the worn
stub of a shovel lay near the
stream. A box marked "Dyna-
mite" was half-filled with odds
and ends of empty tins, cooking
utensils and among the things was
glass fruit-jar half filled with
matches.
Slowly Overland's hand dropped
to his side. He stepped forward.
Save for a pair of old quilts and
arnold corduroy coat, the place
was empty.

CHAPTER TX.
"EOoI'S I,uckv

They had come a long days
journey from the water-hole on
1.-THE other side of the range. They
were safe from ordinary pursuit.
That evening, beside the fire,
Overland Red told again the story
of the dead prospector. the gold,
and the buried papers. In his
Troubled slumbers the Fastener
dreamed of pacing along the track
counting the ties, and eventually
digging in the sand.
Winthrop now knew the tramp
well enough to appreciate that the
other had not risked his own life
and nearly killed one of his pursu-
ers through sheer bravado, or fear,
or personal hatred. Something
more potent was beneath the
tramp's motives-some incentive
that was almost a religion. So far,
| Winthrop was correct. He erred,
however, in supposing Overland to
be obsessed with a mania for gold
for it's own sake. The erstwhile
sheriff of Abilene had dreamed a
dream about an adopted waif and
a beautiful young girl.
Three days they rested in the
wild seclusion of the canyon. The
third morning Winthrop had
awakened feeling so completely re-
freshed he begged Overland to al
low him to make an attempt to
find the hidden papers and the

BILLY BURKE AND HER BABY,
FLORENZ PATRICIA.
By Billie Burke
(COpyright, 1917.)

(COpyrlSHt, lSlfD
Both my nurse and doctor have
told me the chief cause of infant
mortality is excessive and irregu-
lar feeding.
My doctor said: Most babies
are literally killed by mistaken
kindness. If a child cries from
overlooking, its mother feeds IL
again and its little stomach is kept
|distended, then when the child be-
gins to hiccough, the mother flies
to the sugar bowl-a remedy
worse than the disease"
My nurse says that when a baby
begins to develop stomach trouble
II is her plan to give the digestive
|organs a complete rest from six
to IL hours, giving nothing except
q teaspoonful of cool water every
IL or 20 minutes, and that she
keeps the child outdoors as much
as possible.

The moon rolled down to the
rim of the world. The little fire
died down. Overland, cross-leg-
ged on his blanket, smoked mood
fly. Winthrop stirred restlessly.
Overland looked across at the
muffled form. He rose quietly and
gathered the few camp-utensils to-
gether and CROPPED sealthily toward
the burro. He roped the pack.
Winthrop slept heavily.

Then Overland led the burro
round the camp in a wide circle.
from which he branched toward
the hills to the north. For hours
he jonrneyed across the starlit
emptiness.
1t was light when the tramp got
back to the water-hole. He crept
behind a sharp dip in the hum
mocks. The crest of his hiding
place was covered with brush.
With the sun came the faint
thud of hoofs as two riders came
warily up to the water-hole. One
dfsmounted and stopped over Win
throp.
Say, where's your pal. that
there Overland Red guy?" asked
the constable, shaking Winthrop
awake and glaring at him with a
bleared and baleful eye.

so very flattering to me. but l am

After the evening meal they
drew nearer the fire and smoked
in the chill silence. The flames
threw strange dancing shadows on
the opposite cliff.
Winthrop, mindful of Overland's
advice, slipped on his coat as the
night deepened. They sat for
long time without speaking.
Winthrop's head lifted suddenly.

asked.
Overland Red started. "Wha-I

The fastener sat up, coughed
and blinked in the dawn. "Where
is what? VIII, good-morning
You're up early" And his eye
swept the empty camp. So Over
land Red had deserted him, after
all. 81 haven't any pal as you can

An hour later the constable led

Silent Saunders

One after another, in the course
of the two years following Collie
arrival, the old riders of the Moon
stone Ranch drifted away. There
remained but Brand Williams, the
foreman; Collie, and Miguel, a
young Spanish vaquero, who was
devoted to but two things in life,
his splendid pinto pony, and the
Moonstone Ranch.
The others had been lured to the
new oil-fields up north-to the ex-
element Of Goldfield, or to Mexico
City, where even more excitement
promised. In their stead came new
men - Bud Light, Parson Long,

A ROCKIES DREAM

A sleeping rookie dreamed a dream
And dreaming dreamed he died,
And straightway TO the pearly gates
His bean-stained spirit hied.
What wish you? asked Saint Peter,
AS he raped upon the door.
''To have a home in heaven, sir,
And never drill no more.
81 am tired of squads and right about,
I'm sick of column right;
I'm weary of fixin bayonets
From morning until night.
"I'm tired work and squilgels,
And scrubbin', washing clothes,
And darning sections of my socks
Where they let out my toes.
"0f roostin' in a hammock, sir,
A mile above the deck,
Where If you tumble out It's like
You will break your bloomin' neck.
81 want to leave off drilling
In the beatin', burnin' sun,
The pipin' and the marchin'
And the totin' of the gun.
81 want to rest forever
In land of liberty,
Where they never heard of muster
Or wake to reveille.
| Where mortals are all equal
An there amt no G. p. O's.,
And pair of wings for duty
In the place of summer clothes.
81 want to live in heaven, sir,
And be among the blest;
! Where they don't unlash a hammock
When they go to take rest.
II want to be in heaven, there
Among my kith and kin,
So have heart, st. Peter, sir,
4 And let rookie in"
st. Peter paid attention,
| Although he shook his head;
He thought the matter over
And then he softly said:
Nay, nay, my son, you ask too much
You'll find this place too slow,
| So try your friend at the other end
And beat it down below"
