three TO nothing. During the period.
Wardenburg twice displayed his
noted speed and sureness IN stoppina

The second period was marked by

the other side, less than dxy feet
away, Babe Littleford sat u 3 stone
the size of small barrel; she held
cane dshing-rod In her hands, and
her bare feet were in the water to her
ankles. She was looking squarely to-
ward Dale, and there was something
akin to reproachful anger In her long
brown eyes.
Good morning!" called Dale, lifting
his hat
There was no reply. There was not
even change Of countenance. Again
Dale called his friendly greeting, and
again there was no reply. It piQued
Dale.
A few yards down the stream the
white body Of sycamore lay from
one bank to the other; it had been
blown there by n recent storm. Dale
wound his line, went down and crossed
by means of the PROSTATE tree.
She didn't even look around when
he walked up to her and spoke again.
1t struck him as being decidedly odd
II say" he told her, you're as
chatty as set of stencils. You
mustn't talk so much. y'know."
Her eyes smiled at the river, but
Dale couldn't see her eyes.
do you like violets, Miss Little
ford?" he asked next.
In the black, mica starred soil at
his feet grew carpet Of the finest
violets he had ever seen. Babe let the
tip Of her cane rod fall into the water
and looked around.

clared. Most o. men don't think O.

with John MorelaEd."
There came to his ears from some
where down the river the chorus of
rakish old hill song, and the voice
was that Of the lsnky moonshiner, BY
Heck
"oh when die, don't-a bury ne dssp,
Put no tombstone at my head and feet,
Put a bears jawbone in my right hand
On my way to the Promised La-a-and.
Oh! On my way to the Promised
Land"
A few minutes later there appeared
on the Moreland side of the river the
singer of the rakish old song; he had
mlnnOw pail In one hand and white
hickory rod in the other.
Hi, thar, Bill, old boy!" he yelled.
Hi, thar, Babe! Either Of ye'uns

fish proudly. Heck slapped his thigh
with his SLOUGH hat.

AT that instant John Moreland ap-
penred at Heck's side. He seemed very
serious about something.
"Bill Dale" he called. "come over
here"
Wondering, Dale put down his rod
and turned to obey. Two minutes later
he stood before John Moreland
II Jest wanted to tell ye," and the
mountaineer almost closed one alert
grey eye, "'at ye're purity shore to

Not used to hard fightingl Dale's
smile broadened. Once he had whipped
heavyweight pugilist; and he had
fought AZ IA matter OF principle, and
not for money or prestige.
Moreland suddenly jerked one thumb
toward the other side Of the stream
Dale looked and saw, standing beside
Babe Llttleford, quite formidable
man. He had the height and breadth
almost, Of Goliath. He was black
eyed and black-halred, and his thick
short beard was curled like the hail
between bulls horns. In one hnat
he carried repeating rifle as light,
