CHAPTER xV.

Any philosophy which accepts the principle that the great, overshadow- ing events of life are subject to an in- teliigent controlling influence must of necessity grant that the same principle applies to the most commonplace and everyday experiences. The course of the greatest stream of events may we'll be deflected by incidents so com monplace as to quite escape the notice of the casual observer.
 Some such thought as this comforted me-or, at least, would have comforted me, had I thought it-when leaking gasoline tank left me, literally as well as figuratively, high and dry in the foothills. The sun of an August after noon blazed it's glory from cloudless sky; low in valley to the left rib ben of silver-green mountain water threaded its way through fringes of spruce and cottonwood, while on the uplands beyond sleek steers drowsed in the sunshine, and far to the west ward the Rockies slept unconcerned in their draperies of afternoon purple. All these scenes the eye took in with out enthusiasm, almost without ap- proval, and then fell on the white washed ranch buildings almost in the shadow underneath. And in these days a ranch-almost any ranch meant gasoline. -

By what instruction, I afterward wondered, by what almost divine charm had she been able to instil into his young mind the honor and the glory and the pride of it? For there was pride, and something more than pride-adoration perhaps in his words as he strengthened up and said in perfect English: My father was soldier. He was killed at Cour- celette."
 I looked in his little sunburnt face, in his dark, proud eyes, and presently a strange mist enveloped the room. How many little faces, how many pairs of eyes! It was just fading away when a step sounded on the walk, and arose as she reached the door

The direct cause of Mr. Gaines
peevishness was the fact that his

is making strenuous efforts to have
the record Strengthened today.

counted upon to deliver the goods.

that previous to statehood, he had
no opportunity to vote for any one,

republican presidents up to the time
that Woodrow Wilson entered the

that beginning September 1st Pull

continued indefinitely should the
business warrant it being retained.
The decision was the result Of a
recent hearing before Commissioner

when agents Of the Santa Fe appear

claim Of score of witnesses that
the car asked for was necessary.
The matter was taken under ad'
visement at the time, and yesterday
the matter was finally settled.
The railroad officials wanted to
begin the service for the test July

agree to this proposition because

has made good deal, but the citi
zens Of the entire southern half o.
