the silence and the solitude and
gripped his spirit. Danger; death
the Red Mask juggled with them as a
king juggles empires. Why didn't he
draw there in the saloon; why didn't
he draw at the fence? There was
death in his eyes.
The scene in the cabin that first
evening crossed his mind, when by
chance he had learned the secret of
the mans identity; secret shared
by no one else in the FlatwOods; a
secret he dared not reveal for want
of proof He had often thought of it.
Tonight freshened it in his mind COM

mother; her faring scorn; how she
mad sprung from her chair and beat
the intruder off with the imperious dig
nifty of her eyes. Her story, the one
all too brief word that had reached
him out of the sealed past, came to
him again. Long and long he sat with
his head bowed over the table.
Dawn at the east window surprised
him. He stepped to the cabin door.
The square of moonlight upon the floor
was pale and sickly. Great shafts OF
bronze thrust up out of the east and
dimmed the stars. A mist lay along
the river like cloud that had fallen
from the sky and loved the warm
earth so well that it refused to return.
He stood in the door and watched
the world wake up-his world; the
only world be knew. A half sleepy
twitter here and there among the
trees a croak down by the waters
edge a squawk over in the bayou; and
on the higher ground trill now and
then of distilled witchery-he knew
them all. every voice. A crow wal

rasped the silence with his raucous
CALL He was answered by another
from somewhere across in the bot
toms. The woods lifted its thousand
voices multitude shouting, as at the
coming of a hero. And the hero was
at hand. The gates of dawn opened
and he drove in. Bronze turned to
gold; the hills away in the south barred
their heads; soft breeze crOoned
along over the trees and blew out the
morning star.
In the early light the Pearlhunter
searched the ground about the door
step for any tracks that might have
been left by the night prowler. In
the hard and moldy open ground he
found the marks of a boot. The heel
had only touched the ground once or
twice He was struck by its small
size. 1t was said by some that the
Red Mask had been a gentleman and
an artist before he took to the road.
The Pearlhunter could well believe it,
for certainly no other boot in the Flat
woods could leave print so small.
The heel had been somewhat worn,
so that the nails protruded slightly.
They had left very distinct row of
prints around the edge of the mark.
The track was made by the right boot.
He hunted one of the left. No nails
Showed. From the circumstances he
concluded that the outer heel-cap of
the right boot had come off, allowing
the nails to protrude.
1t would be hard to say what train
of thought the finding of the heel print
plunged the man back into as he
Strengthened and stood crumpling the

EASY TO DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
You can Bring Back Color and
Lustre with Sage Tea
and Sulphur.

When you darlIen your hair with
Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can
tell, because it's done so naturally, so
evenly. Preparing this mixture,
though, at home is mussy and trouble
some. At little cost you can buy at
any drug store the ready-to-use prep
aration, improved by the addition of
other ingredients called "Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound" You Just
dampen a sponge or soft brush with
it and draw this through your hair,
taking one small strand at a time.
By morning all gray hair disappears,
and, after another application or two,
your hair becomes beautifully dark
ened, glossy and luxuriant
Gray, faded hair, though no dis
grace, is a sign of old age, and as we
all desire a youthful and attractive
appearance, get busy at once with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
and look years younger. This ready
to-use preparation is a delightful toll
let requisite and not a medicine. IT
Is not intended for the cure, mitiga-
ton or prevention of disease

The pastor rejoices that January
showed the best church attendance
of any month in more than a year.
This was largely brought about by
the cooperation of the Sunday
school as several classes held large
per cent of their number for the

held about so per cent of their num-
bers. Let us strive for even better
things in February.
