Mir. Dodson, the I'Liver Tone" Man, Tells the Treachery
 Of CaIomel.

,~% f~ Calomel loses you day! You know s what calomel is. It's mercury; quick silver. Calomel is dangerous. It crashes into sour bile like dynamite, cramping and sickening you. Calomel attacks the bones and should never be put into your system.
 When you feel bilious, sluggish, con- stipated and all knocked out and be- lieVe you need a dose of dangerous cal omel just remember that your druggist sells for a few cents a large bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone, which is entirely vegetable and pleasant to take and is a perfect substitute for calomel. It is guaranteed to start your liver without stirring you up inside, and can not salivate.
 Don't take calomel! It can not be trusted any more than a leopard or wildcat. Take Dodson's Liver Tone which stfaightens you right up and makes you feel fine. Give it to the children because it is perfectly harm less and doesn't gripe.

 The man By Heck wore the poor which had once been black, was all brim and yet all crown: his suspend CTS, which had been bought with a | 'coonhide, were redder than fire; his gundown cowhide boots seemed ridicu- lously short because of the great length of his slender legs.
 When he had reached point some three yards from Dale, he halted, | placed the butt of his rifle carefully l between his toes, and leaned on it's muzzle; then he deliberately began to take eye measurements of the new conner.
 Dale didn't like the stare-to him it was impudent.

yond the sparkling creek that flowed beside the railroad, and she was par tially hidden by elump of blooming laurel. But Dale could see that she was about twenty; that every line of her rounded graceful figure whis- pered of a doelike strength that she was as straight as a young pine that her chestnut-brown hair caught the sunlight, and that her face was oval shaped and handsome-rather than pretty-in spite of it's tan.
 Dale took off his hat. There was a bullet hole in the very top of it's high peaked crown.
 'Who's the robber?" he drowned.
 The girl blushed.
 'Mebbe he aint robber," she said. 'Mebbe he thought you was somebody else. Anyhow, you ain't bad hurt, are ye?"
 Dale smiled. "Oh, not seriouslyr'
 You ain't likely to be, eff ye behave yeself."
 "If I behave myself" Dale laughed. "Why, couldn't be naughty if I tried; I'm the one and only man. mas little Willie-boy! I wonder if could put up at some house near here; eh?"
 "The' might be- she said, thought fully.
 "Where?"
 "tt pap's, or grandpap's, or with most any O my people, or" she added with a contemptuous twist to her lips, you might stay with some O them low-down Morelands."
 "Where do your people live?"
 About six mile back that way" She pointed over her shoulder with a forefinger.
 'Would you mind showing me the way to your parental domicile?"
 Whats that, fo' goodness sake?"
 -Four home, you know" Dale ex- plained with a smile.
 "Oh, my home. Why didn't ye say so, then? No, I won't" she declared.
 Dale put his bag down and rested his hands on his hips.
 "Why, may I inquirer"
 "'Cause I won't I don't never keep comp'ny with no strange men folks. But wander comes By, and he'll show ye the way; he's a-goin' over to the settlement"
 Dale faced to the right and saw, coming toward him with steps that would have measured almost four feet, the tallest and lankiest individ- ual he had ever seen outside a circus. The newcomer had a smoothly shaven chin, his coal-black hair was long and his long mustache completely hid the narrow slit that was his mouth. In one hand he carried a repeating rifle.
 Who's that?" Dale half whispered.
 That's By Heck" answered the girl. She continued in low voice, His names Sam Heck; but pap. he called him By Heck one day, and the nickname stuck to him like molasses.

CHAPTER L.
David Moreland's Mountain.


 Carlyle Wilburton Dale-known to himself and few close friends as Bill Dale-had laid out a course of action almost before the northbound train had left the outskirts of the state cap ital behind. It incurred facing big odds; but other men had faced big odds and won out, and what others had done he could do. Indeed, he had already done several things which other men might not have thought of doing, and one of them was leaving a bride, not figuratively but literally, at the altar in a. fashionable church But he knew Patricia hadn't wanted to marry him any more than he had wanted to marry her.
 It was only natural for him to think of coal, now that he had cut loose for all time from the "set" in which he had always been a colossal misfit, now that he must pull his own oars or vir- tually perish. He had heard coal talked since the day of his birth; to him coal and business meant exactly the same.
 One of his fathers associates had often spoken of a fine vein in the mountains of eastern TennesSee-had often tried to persuade his father to look into it, to no avail, Young Dale re- membered that this vein lay not far from a long railroad siding called the Halfway Switch, in the vicinity of Big Pine mountain. The owners were mountain folk of English descent his fathers associate had said. Decidedly strange, thought Dale, that his father had never cared to investigate it.
 The cindery little train reached the long siding about the middle of fine spring morning. Dale took up his bag hastened out, and soon found himself standing alone in the heart of an ex- tremely wild section of country.
 When the noises of the little train and the fast mail it had just met had died away, there came the saucy chat tering of boomer-squirrels and the sweet twittering of birds. Dale caught the joyous spirit. He could have fairly shouted out of the fullness of his very human heart. Here all was unspoiled and unprofaned, and some thing whispered within him:
 "They won't call you a savage here-make this your own country'
 From somewhere on nearby mountainside a rifles keen report split the air; bullet whined like a mad hornet; Dales hat jumped a little on his head.
 The awakening was exceedingly rude. Dale wheeled, his gray eyes ablaze, and saw only tiny cloud of smoke-mist rising from the laurels more than fifty feet away.
 Come out, you coward!" he roared "Come out and let me see you" curi- ,osity taking the place of anger in his voice. i've always wanted to know just what real highwayman was likei"
 The muffied sound of twig break ing a short distance off to his left next claimed his attention. He was being closely watched by pair of the fin est, dearest brown eyes he had ever seen. He saw her eyes first; he never forgot that.
 She was standing on low cliff be-

went with him whar he went, and he went with me whar I went. I'd fight fo' him, and he'd fight fo' me. It's hard to tell, even alter this long time. -.
 David, he was strappin' big man, like all O the Morelands. He was about yore size, and grey-eyed like you, and he had brown hair like you. When you walked up to the gate, it made me think O him the day he was married; he was all dressed up in dark blue like you. Then David he went up here one summer and found this vein O coal. He got law full psession O the mountain, and moved ~his wife up here The rest of us lived over in the Laurel Fork coun- 1 try then.
 "One day I got a letter from David, which said that q man named John k. Carlyle was a-goin' to buy his noun tain and the coal, and said that his wife was pow'ful sick. week later she died, and left baby which died, too, accOrdin' to a old Injun by the name O Cherokee Joe who knowed my pap and knowed David. And a month later we was all dragged from our beds by this same Cherokee Joe, telin' us that Carlyle had shot David Carlyle Cherokee Joe saids was a-drinkin' hard. The Injun seed the shootin' through a window.
 Ut was might nigh to three days later when we got here and found pore David a-layin' whar he'd fell. We secured the mountains fo' miles and miles around in s'arch fo the dawg who killed him, but we never found him. . The land up here looked purity, and it belonged to us by David's death; so we all moved up here to live, and built us cabins
 Major Bradley found out about theA end O my brother, and he wanted us to put the case in the hands O thee law. But we wouldn't do it. A More-s land never goes to law about anything. He pays his own debts, and he collects what is his due,
 John Moreland arose and paced the porch floor, which creaked under his weight. He stopped before Dale, and went on sadly:
 "Now yell know why was so much tore up when I heered yore name, the Carlyle part. John K. Carlyle killed the best man at ever lived. And meb- be yell understand why we ain't never had the conscience to sell the coal, which cost Brother David his life"
 Moreland's guest sat staring absent | ly toward a brown-winged butterfly that was industriously slipping honey l from the heart of a honeysuckle bloom. He gave no sign that he had heard anything out of the ordinary, but in an odd, persistent way hismind seemed to connect his father, John K. Dale, with the story he had just heard.
 John K. Dale had come originally from West Virginia, and he had flatly refused, time upon time, to make any investigation of the Moreland coal property.
 The hillman interrupted young Dale's thinking:
 "Addie, she's a-goin to have dinner ready purity soon. Would ye like to wash, Mr. Dale?"
 Yes" was the answer. and in the tones of Bill Dale's quiet voice there was a shade of meaning, that More land did not catch s9es, Id like to wash"
