The whispering was interrupted by
q loud ringing neigh that. wlistled up
from the arroyo. One of the horses
had scented the travellers on the
ridge Cop. rhe Indifference Of the
Mexicans changed to attention.
Ladd and Lash turned back and led
the horses into the first opening on
the south side Of the road. The packs
were slipped, securely tied and hidden
in q mesquite clump. Ladd strapped
a blanket around one Of the horses.
His next move was to take off his
chaps.
"Gale, you're wearin boots, an by
liftin' your feet you can beat the cac-

Dick took the chaps, and, going up
to Mercedes, he explained the sltua-

embarrassed earneStness, and slipped
out Of the saddle.
"Senor, chapparCiOS and l are not

herself, and then Gale helped her into

So Dick Gale rode on, drowsier for
each mile, and more and more giving
the horse q choice Of ground. Once
when he, thinking to fight his weari-
ness, raised his head, he saw that one
of the. horses in the lead was riderless.
Ladd was carrying Mercedes. o
If seemed that hours passed, though
he knew only little time had elapsed,
when once more he threw of the spell
of wearlness. He heard dog bark.
Tall trees lined the open lane down
which he was riding. Presently In the
gray gloom he saw Tow, square houses
with fat roofs. Ladd rode on for
perhaps a quarter Of mile, though
1t seemed intermlnably long to Dick.
A grove of trees loomed dark in the
gray of morning. Ladd entered 1t and
was lost in the shade. Dick rode on
among the trees. Presently he heard
voices, and soon another house, low
and flat like the others, but so long
he could not see the farther end, stood
up blacker than the trees. AS he dis
mounted. cramped and sore, he could
scarcely stand. Lash came alongside.
He spoke, and someone with a big,
hearty voice replied to him. Then 1t
seemed TO Dick that he was led into
blackness Ike pitch, where, presently,
he felt blankets thrown on him, and
then his drowsy faculties faded.

Don't Spoil Your Child's
Hair By Washing 1t

When you wash your child's hair be
careful what you use. Most soaps and
prepared shampoos contain too much
alka-i. which is very injurious. as it
dries the scalp and makes the hair
brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsified
cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap
and beats anything else all to pieces
Two or three teaspoonfuls of Mulsi-
fled in a cup or glass with a little
warm water is all that is required.
Simply moisten the hair with water.
and rub il in. It makes an abundance
of rich, creamy lather. cleanses thor
oughly. and rinses out easily. The
hair dries quickly and evenly. and is
soft. fresh looking. bright, fluffy. wavy
and easy to handle Besides. IL loosens
and takes out every particle of dust,
dirt and dandruff- You can get Null
sified at any drug store. and a few
ounces will last everyone in the family
for months Be sure your druggist
gives you Mulsified--Adv.

Texas Official Charge Americans

rant from this city and upon being
brought here by train were placed in
a high powered motor car and rushed
across the border near Laredo.
Here they were imprisoned on
trumped up charges and held for ran
som.
The other case is the Illustration OF

pensable. An elaborate system of pumps
operated either on land or in boats has been
necessary to force fresh air continuously
through great length of hose to the man
below the surface. Not long ago, however
IL was announced that some inventive genius
had conceived and, IL Is said, put into sue
cessful operation a device which II Is thought
will do away with the old apparatus for
diving once tn, new system is perfected.
BY the new method the diver carries on
his back two steel bottles containing highly
compressed oxygen Another cylinder con-
tains chemicals for absorbing the carbonic
acid exhaled from the lungs. A system of
piping carries all the impure air breather
out to a chamber containing the absorbing
chemical. In this compartment the carbonic
acid gas Is entirely eliminated. small
amount of oxygen, just enough to renew the
air, is added to the changed and regenerated
exhalations and passed on to a compartment
in the helmet, where it can be irhaled
through the nose or the mouth. BY this
method the vitiated air is continually being
made over into new The inventor contends
that his device will do away with the acci-
dents and loss of life which have occasionally
occurred through defects in the diving hose
