CHAPTER III.
Eduardo Ramon Tore.

Their master was not here; their
young mistress eyes were turned with
intent eagerness upon the young
American owner of the Painted Rock
ranch, and so the servants. each of
them, turned to Stairway expectantly.
Stairway waited in silence moment
until new set of faces in the doorway,
darker, sun-kissed, bearded faces, told
him that the vaqueros had risen to
Pedro's clamorous call.
y Then he spoke to them all, swiftly,
Z with rising emphasis, calling upon
them by name, addressing them in
mixed Spanish and English, taking the
word which came first to him that
they would grasp.
"Gaucho," he called as very tall,
sinewy, Arab-looking man pushed his
way through the cluttered door. ''Tus
vaqueros have work to do tonight. Are
they all here-tOdos?"

BITTER TASTE

Pills and Strong Medicines Made
This Lady's Troubles Worse,
But Thedford's Black Draught

statement: II have taken Black

used to get bilious and constipated
and had to take something. Pills and
other strong medicines would only tear
my stomach up and leave me in a
worse fix than before taking. I began
to have sick headache. ......
After learning Of Black-Draught I
took it and was cured of sick head
aches. One or two doses week, or a
pinch after meals, kept the bowels
open and took away all bile. 7 have a
good appetite, due to my use Of Black
Draught."
If your liver is not acting properly
you may suffer from such symptoms
as headache, biliousness, constipation,
indigestion, ETC., and unless relief is
obtained serious trouble may result.
In it's 20 years of successful use,
Thedford's Black-Draught has been
found to relieve these ailments and
stimulate the liver to do it's work.
At all druggists.-Adv.

He could not see the flush which
crept into her cheeks, nor the light in
her eyes, but went on swiftly, unguard-
edly, his voice almost stern with the
emotion upon him:
"The border is unsafe. Mexico is
going to be torn to pieces this time
before temporary truce comes again.
You need someone to take care of
you."
'You forget papa grande," she re-
minded him gayly. "You seem to
have habit of forgetting him."
"Your grandfather" he said in the
same quiet tone, lis not the man to
protect you now, for three very good
reasons: He is too near the border
and too rich to go unmolested by the
rebel bands, who have already made
more than one raid into American ter
ritory under cover Of night.
"And he is too Spanish. He was
born in Spain-his father kept him
there until he was of age. He is a
Spanish and not an American citizen"

Immediately she was dimly con-

And then the reason asserted itself.
A chair lay overthrow, a little way
from the chair a rug was crumpled
and thrown back. the ink bottle which
had been upon the table lay upon the
floor.

heard a sharp knocking at the front

the ink spilled there -
Stairway left her side, striding alb
ruptly to where the bottle lay.
There was a dark smear on the car
pet near it. He leaned over it, stOop-
ing, seeing the candles reflected from
the dark surface.
And his face, too, was very white

breath between his teeth. TO
He managed to stand between the
girl and the dark smear.

The girl turned and ran swiftly
through the great rooms, down the
long hallway to do his bidding, a sharp
fear clutching her heart. Stairway,
when she had gone, stepped quickly
across the room, snatched up a rug
there and threw it down upon the car
pet, covering the dark spot near the
bottle.
Then he stood still, waiting.
AS he waited there came to him
from the silence without a faint drum
ming sound, the noise of horses hoofs
in q mad tattoo of flight through the
night.
1.-THE rebels" he muttered angrily.
"They are taking what is left of him
back across the border"
He ran to the window. The curtain
there was torn. Moonlight and candle
light showed him where wood and
plaster were scratched as in a hur
ried exit.
Then Teresa had come back to him,
her great eyes wide with alarm, and
the servants were already trooping in,
sleepy-eyed and mystified.

Sage, who made this project possible.
We can't all live in a community
as pretentious as Forest Hills, but
there is no reason in the world why
we cannot build similar communities
to fit the pocketbooks of the various
classes of people, from the Italian
laborer earning 81 or SO a day to
the man whose income is five or six
times as much.
"But the Italian laborer doesn't
want to live in the suburbs" you
say; che prefers the crowded tene-
ment, where he can enjoy the society
of his kind"
We doubt it. The foreign labor
ing man in nine cases out of ten
lives in the crowded tenement not
from choice but from fear Of isola-
ton. You know how it is in small
town whose population is made up Of
native-born Americans. Let a for
eigner of any nationality come to
live within it's sacred precincts and
he is regarded as an interloper, and
leads q miserable, lonely existence.
Often there isn't even a church Of
his own faith in the settlement. Do
you blame the inhabitant of the
lower East Side for preferring the
discomfort and squalor of that dis
trict to this? But offer this man
little house of his own, set in it's own
bit Of garden, in community made
up Of has ow7 kind, with it's own
churches and schools and shops, and
see whether or not he will still pre-
fer the crowded tenement.
There is no doubt about It, the
community idea is one way-and a
very wholesome and practical way
of solving the housing problem.
Community settlements before the
war were few and far between in
this country. There were a few
located near towns where there were
big industrial plants, but they were
not commonly known outside the dis
trict in which they were situated.
The opening Of the great munision
plants, shipbui,ding concerns and all
the other wartime industries, how
ever, brought the need for housing
the workmen and their families, and
picturesque little villages have
sprung up in various parts Of the
country which will continue to shell
ter the families of the workingmen
long after the Hun has accepted our
peace terms and the need for NUM-
tions is gone
