and thrust out his hand.

slowly. "and yet your name" A
smile crossed the face of their savior.

folks" he interrupted. "As for my
name, there is time enough for that"
Thought of possible danger to Ethel
spurred Davis into instant acquies-
cence.
AS they emerged from the valley
near the cabin. a low exclamation
from the hermit caused them to look
back Morgan and his gang were al
ready in sight and headed for them.

Dashing into the cabin. John called
loudly for Ethel but no reply came,
and quick search revealed the emp

the doors they made ready for the at
tack which they knew would soon fol-

Morgan Mt sight Of the. assayer's

to the Spider with wicked oath.

with command to a number Of the
miners. went riding away at their
head. while the Hawk and his party
tlismounted. Taking advantage of
whatever shelter they could find they
opened fire upon the house.
Ethel and her party hearing the up
proach of the Spiders gang. ran from
the trail and climbed to a little ledge
over which brow OF the cliff dropped.
As the approaching party opened fire
upon them: they threw themselves fiat

situation convincing the Spider that
an attack from above the ledge might
be successful. he dispatched two men
to make, -detour and get above 1t.
while he and the rest kept up their
fire. One OF their bullets, glancing
from a rock. pierced the assayer's
arm and his weapon dropped. In an

Before he could regain his poise,
Bridget, with a wild Celtic war cry,
was upon him. Locking her mighty
arms about his waist she hurled him
bodily over the edge, watching him as
he went crashing down. When he was
no longer to be seen. she faced about
and saw her sawed.on gun where she
had dropped 1t when the assayer had
been hit. Slowly she picked 1t up.
"Bedad! clane forgot It," she
muttered.
But her moment of triumph was
short lived. Even as she spoke Sec
ond form dropped heavily upon her
head and she fell stunned upon the
ledge. and before the girl could reload
her weapon the outlaw had disarmed
her. Covering the wounded man, their
captor uttered triumphant yell. and
at that signal the Spider and his fol-
lowers came swarming over the ledge.
Quickly the three prisoners were
bound. after which they were marched
back along the ridge at the muzzles
of their captors' weapons.
Brought before Morgan. the cap

turned to the girl.
"Its open war from now on. If

cut short by volley from above.
From the sawmill where they had
been inspecting the machinery. the
two engineers had heard the shots and
rushed out. A glance at the group
below enlightened them as to the real
situation, and without hesitation they
opened fire upon the outlaw gang.
Back out of range darted the Hawk,

arose in sharp command.

FEW FOLKS HAVE
GRAY HAIR NOW
Druggist Says Ladies are Using Recipe
of Sage Tea and Sulphur.

Hair that loses its color and lustre, or
when it fades, turns gray, dull and life
less, is caused by lack of sulphur in the
hair. Our grandmother made up a mix
ture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep
her locks dark and beautiful, and thou
sands of women and men who value that
even color, that beautiful dark shade of
hair which is so attractive, use only this
oldt recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mixture
improved by the addition of other in
gradients by asking at any drug store
for bottle of "'Wyeth s Sage and Sui
! phur Compound, = which darkens the
hair so naturally, SO evenly that nobody
can possibly tell it has been applied.
You just dampen a sponge or soft brush
with it and draw this through your hair
taking one small strand at time. BY
morning the gray hair disappears; but
what delights the ladies with Wyeth :
Sage and Sulphur Compound is that, be
sides beautifully darkening the hair
after few applications, it also bring:
back the gloss and lustre and gives il
an appearance of abundance.-Adv.

W AAuhiebh AAAS'
NEW YORK. March 25.-Announce-
ment of the establishment Of the Ma
tional Radium Bank, which has $4,000
worth of radium to lend to hospitals
and physicians for therapeutic use ali
over the country free of charge, was
made at the opening session of the an
nual meeting of the Medical society of
the state of New York at the Wal

pital already has received from it with
out charge 100000 worth of the ma
teral for use in its research work and
its cancer experiments.
Further interest was given to the pro-
ceedngs by the ssibility-advanced
by DR.. Eugene l.. Fisk of the Life Elk
tension Institute in paper read before
n Joint meeting of the section on medi-
cine and the section on public health,
hygiene and sanitation-that human
life might be prolonged for as much as
1000 wears. DR.. Fisk admitted that
such thing would be "terrible,' but
said that if the life cycle of men and
women was heightened TO the proper.
tionate extent that science has already
stretched the life of the fruit fly, il
was entirely possible
DIR. Fisk's suggestion regarding the
prolongation of human life came IN {
