The Monmouth inquirer., 1921-04-21

dams, prison oflense, seemed Co
the agent an easy way of accumulat-
ing money.
Scarface, however, soon decided
that a small taste of liquor was a JOY
that needed no pestponement. The
first strangling swallow of diluted
alcohol brought tears to his eyes and
severe coughing, but it was rapture
to his soul He tried several times
more and was soon pretty well in
toxicated.
1t chanced that the man wss
widower, anxious to marry again.
He issued from the woods where he
had gone to tipple, considering it
good stroke of business to conceal
his valued possession from his
friends. Passing near the tent of
Nimissuts, he saw Ameou standing
near the fire with her baby in her
arms, and lurched over toward her.
His condition apparently did not
prevent his appreciation of feminine
beauty. He believed that this was
the very moment in which to express
it, 30 he put his hand suddenly on
the young woman's shoulder. AS she
quickly moved aside it fell on tbs
baby's head. The child yelled like
true scion Of civilization.
The fierce instinct which lies DOR
mant in every woman's breast when
her offspring needs defense, caused
Ameou to uplift her hand and strike
the mans face. He fell, bawl-
ing, and staggered off, muttering
threats.
Curran, who happened to be near,
ran up and hustled the man TO his
tent, shaking him none too gently.
Then an idea struck him. After
leaving Scarface he returned to the
post, beaming the smile that was the
harbinger of some evil act.
In the morning he sent for Itua-
ganu, who came up to the store,
showing some evidence of the even
ing's excesses. He begged hard for
a drink, having failed to find his bot
tie for the very good reason that
Curran had taken it away from him
on the previous evening.
"My tongue is dry and my throat
on fire." he pleaded. "Also, my
head hurts as if l had received many
blows. Give me but one drink Of
the burning water and all shall be
right with me again"
"Not a single drop shalt thou
have" affirmed Curran with an air
of virtue: What kind of a man art
thou to break thy promises and let
woman beat thee like a punychild
