Billy Louise did not give Ward much
opportunity for argument. He was too
awkward with his crutches to keep up
with her, and she managed to be on
the move most Of the time.
When she had helped Ward upon
Blue-and that was not easy, either,
considering that he only had one leg
fit to stand on-and had gone to the
cabin for her bag of nuggets and
Wards roll of money which he had for
gotten, and had exhausted every other
excuse for delay, she picked up Rat
tiers reins and wound her fingers in
as nonchalantly as if she were mount

announced breathlessly, when the first
fight was over and Rather, like his
master, had yielded to the inevitable.
"And we know who's boss. and we're
all Of us squindiciously happy, because
we're headed for home. Aren't we,
buckaroo?"

doubtingly, for a moment cycling her
sidelong.
"And say, buckaroo!" Billy Louise
refined close, so that she could reach
out and pinch his arm a little bit.
"Soon as your leg is all well, and you're

son and another cowboy at the Cove,
just preparing to leave. Marthy, it
transpired, had sent for them because
she wanted to make her will, so that
Billy Louise would have the Cove when
Marthy was done with it. Billy Louise
cried a little and argued good deaf,
but Marthy had not lost all her stub
bornness, and the will stood I'M
changed.
Billy Louise and Ward were married
just as soon as Ward was able to make
the trip to the county-seat, which was
Just as soon as he could walk comfort
ably with cane.
They stayed the winter in the Cove,
and part of the spring. Then they
buried grim, gray old Marthy up on the
side hill near Jase, where she had
asked them to lay her work-worn body
when she was gone.
They were very busy and very happy
and pretty prosperous with their three
ranches. They never heard of Charlie
Fox again, or of Buck Olney-and they
never wanted to.
If you should some time ride through
certain portion Of Idaho, you may
end the tiny valley of the Wolverine
and the decaying cabins which prove
how impossible it is for couple to
live in three places at once. If you
should be so fortunate as to meet Billy
Louise, she might take you through
the canon and point out to you her
cave. 1t is possible that she might also
show you the washout which always
made her and Ward laugh when they
passed it And if you ride up over the
hill and along the upland and down
another hill, you cannot fail to find the
entrance to the Cove; and perhaps You
will like to ride down the gorge and
see the little Eden hidden away there.
And if you should meet them, give my
regards to Billy Louise and Ward
who never calls himself a football
these days.

Norfolk Bids Fair to Break all Rec
ords at Her Present Rate
of Progress.

There is not city in this country,
perhaps none in the world, that is
growing at more rapid rate than Nor
folk" remarked g. w. Sizer, manager
Of one Of the leading hotels Of that
city, at the Raleigh, the Washington
Post states. "The last census gave
the population of Norfolk at less than
10000. Today it is estimated that Nor
folk is a city Of 100000, or more than
double the size it was in 1910. Wash
ington prides itself on the tremendous
growth attained in the last two or
three years. I take considerable pride
in the growth Of Washington, for /
lived here many years, but the pro-
portionate increase in the population
of the national capital cannot compare
with that of Norfolk. OF course, both
cities are helped by war business.
Washington, / presume, is the busiest
city in the world, but Norfolk is al
most next.
Hampton Roads is filed with ships.
Battleships are passing in and out
every hour, and soldiers and sailors
are filling the streets, hotels and resi-
dences Of Norfolk. Only recently /
saw some 1000 soldiers from New Zea-
land parading through the streets OF
Norfolk. Many of them were not
young. New Zealand already has sent
close to 10000 men to the front in
France, and Belgium, out Of popu-
lation of 100000, and Is still sending
men, which should be an object les
son to us.
Business is booming In Norfolk as
never before. The hotels are filed to

The First Romanoff.

Romanoff is the name Of the Rus
sian imperial dynasty regnant in the
male line from 1913 to 1870, and
thenceforward in the female line. Con-
slant fntermarriages with German
princely houses, however, have made
the Romanoff strain of today more
German than Russian. Nay; the old
est ancestor Of the house of Roman
off. Andrew Kobyla, is said to have
come to Moscow from Prussia (1341).
The name Romanoff was given to the
family by the boyar Roman Yurie-
witch, the fifth Of direct descent from
Andrew, who succeeded in getting a
female member of his family on the
throne Of the cars by marrying his
daughter to Ivan The Terrible. In
February, 1913, Mikhael Feodorvitch
Romanoff, boy of seventeen, was pro-
claimed car, grand duke and autocrat
of all the Russias in the Red square
Of Moscow. With this accession to
the throne of the famous, or rather I'll
famed, dynasty began 304 years
misrule that-let us hope-has ended
forever with the forced abdication OF
Gar Nicholas, in March, 1917.

CHAPTER XVIII.
All Right and Comfy.

T<HE next morning Billy Louise
rode up the creek at long lope,
and she pulled up at the stable
and slid off Blue. She went straight
to a corner of the hay corral and
stopped with her hands clutching the
top wire.

what are you doingY You couldn't

been crying, mile back, from sheer
anxiety, or that she "loyed him to

time, two SomerVille business men,

The heavy snow and extreme cold
made travel almost impossible and kept
awy several from surrounding sections
who we're coming, But there should
have been present fifty Somerville
business men instead of two who we're
there, and before Somerville and Fsyette
county make any marked progress her
business men will have to form the hab.
itof attending such meetiI gs and lending
their help.
County Agent Owens Is following the

when each buyer and each owner of
hog for sale are asked 10 meet at the
towns of the county for trading. By
this plan gifts that might be butchered

appeal is made to the business men of
the county to help in this movement.

they would be ashamed to acknowledge
that children reared in their own home

Teachers are largely to blame for such
