saw the stranger boy at his side with
his bow and arrow. A few minutes
later he heard yell from the lad
which rang high over the din, and he
saw the feathered tip of an arrow
shaking in the breast Of big Indian
who staggered and fell behind bush.
Just at that moment there were yells
from the woods behind-the yells of
white men that were answered by
joyful yells within the fort:
"The VirginiansI The Virginians!"
And as the rescuers dashed into sight
on horse and afoot, Dave saw the lad
leap the wall of the stocRade and dis
appear behind the Reeing Indians.
"Gone back to em," he grunted to
himself. The gates were thrown open.
Old Jerome and his men rushed out,
and besieged and rescuers poured all
their fire after the running Indians,
some of whom turned bravely to emp

arms. Not another sound came from
the woods, but again Dave from the
tower saw the -cane-brush rustic at the
1 edge of thicket, saw a hand thrust
upward with the palm of peace
| toward the fort, and again the
stranger boy emerged-this time with
a bloody scalp dangling in his left
hand. Dave sprang down and met him
at the gate. The boy shook his bow
and arrow proudly, pointed to criss-
cross scar on the scalp, and Dave
made out from his explanation that
once before the lad had tried to kill
his tormentOr and that the scar was
the sign. In the center Of the enclos-
ure the wounded Virginian lay, and
when old Jerome stripped the shirt
from his breast he shook his head

"Who is that boyy he asked
sharply.
Never mind nOw," said old Joel
sOOthingly, ''you must keep still"
The boys eyes had begun to shift un-

"Come back here!" commanded the
wounded man, and still searching the
lad he said sharply again:
''Who is that boy?" Nor would he
have his wound dressed or even take
old Joel briefly told the story, when he
lay back on the ground and closed
his eyes. .-
Darkness fell. In each tower a
watcher kept his eyes strained toward
the black silent woods. The dying
man was laid on a rude bed within
one cabin, and old Joel lay on the
floor of it close to the door. The
stranger lad refused to sleep indoors
and huddled himself in a blanket on
the ground in one corner of the stock

stopped short on the threshold. The
lad, stark naked but for his breech-
clout and swinging his bloody scalp
over his head, was stamping around
the fire-dancing the scalp-dance of
the savage to a low, fierce, cultural
song. The boy saw her, saw her face

stopped. With another oath and a
threatening gesture Joel motiOned to
the corner of the stOckade, and with
a flare of defiance in his black eyes
the lad stalked slowly and proudly
away. From behind him the voice OF
the wounded man called, and old Joel
turned. There was a CHASTITY smile on

''The dangerous age" for a
boy is that period when the
school is through with him, haV-
ing told him everything but how
to get start in life, and practi-
cal life looks at him askance.
The truth is, we have left no
place for the boy. We have re-
fused to give him a hand hold on
life at a time when his develop
ment urges him to get that hand
hold. We have forced him to
pursue course which if it does
not unfit him for his part, at
least does not fit him for it.
The result is that, to many
study becomes abhorrent in ma
turity. Instincts thwarted at
both. periods become distractions
all the way through. Freedom
is an essential element in life;
freedom with discipline is con-
sistent; freedom with repression
is not. .-Ex.

New Fall Color.

When autumn comes the fash
ionable woman will garb herself
in colors that are synonymous
with the seasons. Reds, browLs
and orange, purple of a reddish
tint, like a late autumn sunset,
and similar shades will be favor
ed for fall wear.
Eighty colors, sixty-six of
which are portrayed in silk and
twelve in woolen fabrics, are on
the new color card released by
the Textile Color Card Associa-
ton of the United States.
The oriental and Russian in.
fiuences are noticeable in the
new colors. For evening wear
neither black nor the pastel
shades so long popular will be in
vogue Instead reds, blues and
orange and the mysterious red
dish, purple have been chosen.
-Periwinkle and cornfower
blue from the spring card are
chosen again. Among the wool.
ems a shade of tan called pig
skin is shown. A new red call
ed Akkar is introduced. Shoe
and hosiery colors are silver,
midst and pigeon grays and
fawns, otter and mouse shades
and brown.
A new note in autumn fash
ions will be street costumes of
colored cloth, according to a
Chicago designer and importer.
Costumes of colored broad.
cloth, fine cashmere or of mater
ials that are combinations of
silk and wool will be worn next
fall" she said, ''Cloth costumes
have heretofore been of dark
colors usually, or of very con-
servative shades of tan, brown
or blue. Much gayer colors will
be used. Three piece costumes
will be featured and velvets in
bright colors will be in demand.
1t will be a distinctly new fash
ion note. y
Costume jewelry. novelty ear
rings, belts, necklaces and pins
viii continue to be popular.
Color will reign. just as black
reigned for long time as the
! fashionable toilette color.
