of Our Success

Aud why we are selling so much
property, both houses aud vacant
lots. We absolutely refuse to han
die property ii the price is too
high. That is to say, tucking it
on to the buyer. Nothing doing
along those lines through this of,
fee, as we are strictly clean and
satisfy both seller and buyer. We
have on hand now some of the best
buys in ST. Johns, Come and let
us prove this to you, We have
from shacks to ten room modern.
Every property we offer for sale we
will get the buyer more for it in the
next sixty days. This is pretty
stout. but we are reliable and will
do as we say Our word is as good
as a United States bond.

Some of the first coins were enor-

courage the greedy from attempting
to accumulate and carry around too
many of them. There were copper
coins as large as dinner plates. This
inconvenient style had to give way to
the demand for smaller and more con-

giant pennies soon dwindIed In size to
meet the popular demand.

CHAPTER VI.
Back Home.


Every mothers son of the feudiStS
was numbered in the party that filed
across David MOrelands mountain to
intercept the next sOuth-bOund train.
The old enmity was for the time being
forgotten. Members Of one clan
rubbed elbows with members of the
other clan, and thought nothing of 1t.
John Moreland himself carried one
end of the crude litter that held the
limp form of Babe Littleford; Bill
Dale carried the other end.
Close behind the litter walked Babes
father, seeming old and broken with
remorse for the thing he had done.
The grief of Ben Littleford was touch
ing now, and Dale was a little sorry
that he had spoken so bitterly to him.
They reached the Halfway switch
ten minutes before the arrival of the
fast mail. A short passenger train
was on the long siding, waiting for the
south bound to pass. Dale gave his
end of the litter to Caleb Moreland,
and strobe up to the locomotive. The
engineer sat quietly smoking III MS
cab.
Dale wanted the fast mail stopped,
and gave his reasons.
The engineer smoked and consid-
cred. 1t was against rules Dale
swore at rules. The engineer said he
would see the conductor. He did, and
the conductor stepped to the ground
and began to consider.
BETTER put her on my train" he
said finally, "and take her to Bartons
station. There's good doctor at Bar
toms"
