"Wal, Flo," said Stillwell, II reckon
we'd better hev the rest of thet there

"You didn't leave much Of It,"
laughed Florence, as she produced the
basket from under the seat.
While they ate, the short twilight
shaded and gloom filled the hollows.
Madeline was glad to have the robes
close around her and to lean against
Florence. There were drowsier spells
in which she lost feeling Of where
she was. and these were disturbed by
the jolt Of wheels over rough place.
Then came blank interval, short or
long, which ended in a more violent
lurch Of the blackboard. Madeline
awoke to find her head on Florence's
shoulder. She sat up laughing and
.apologizing for her laziness. Florence
assured her they would soon reach the
ranch.

scene Of action. A roar Of tramping
hoofs filed her ears. The lines Of
marching cattle had merged into
great, moving herd half obscured by
dust.
The bawling and believing, the
cracking Of horns and pounding Of
hoofs, the dusty whirl Of cattle, and
the flying cowboys disconnected Made
line and frightened her little.
"Look, Miss Hammond, there's Don
Carlos p said Florence. Look at that
black horsel"
Madeline saw a dark-faced Mexican
riding by. He was too far away for
her to distinguish his features, but he
reminded her Of an italian brigand.
He bestrode magnificent horse.
Stillwell rode up to the girls then
and greeted them in his big voice.
Fright in the'thick Of it, hey? Wal,
thet's sure fine. I'm glad to see, Miss
Majesty, thet you amt afraid of

The two men and Florence joined
in little pleasant teasing Of Made
line, and drew her attention to what
appeared to be really unnecessary feats
of horsemanship all made in her vi
cinity. The cowboys evinced their in
terest In covert glances while recOiling
a lasso or while passing to and fro.
It was all too serious for Madeline to
be amused at that moment. She did
not care to talk. She sat her horse
and watched.

CHAPT r vi
A GIFT and a Purchase.

For a week the scene Of the round
up lay within rding-distance Of the
ranch-house. and Madeline passed most
Of this time In the saddle, watching
the strenuous labors Of the vaqueros
and cowboys. She overestimated her
strength, and more than once had to
be lifted from her horse. Stillwell's
pleasure In her attendance gave place
to concern. He tried to persuade her
to stay away from the roundup, and
Florence grew even more solicitous.
Madeline, however, was not moved
by their entreaties.
She grasped only dimly the truth
of what 1t was she was learning
something infinitely more than the
rounding up of cattle by cowboys, and
she was loath to lose an hour Of her
opportunity.
Before the week was out, however,
Alfred found occasion to tell her that
1t would be wiser for her to let the
roundup 60 without gracing it further
with her presence. He said 1t laugh
ingly; nevertheless, he was serious.
And when Madeline turned to him In
surprise he said, bluntly:
II don't like the way Don Carlos
follows you around. Bills afraid that
Nels or Ambrose or one of, the cow
boys will take a fall out Of the Mexi-
can. They're itching for the chance.
OF course, dear. it's absurd to you, but
it's true"
Absurd it certainly was, yet 1t served
to show Madeline how intensely occu-
pied she had been with her own feel
ings, reused by the tumult and toll of
the roundup. She recalled that Don
Carlos had been presented to her, and
that she had not liked his dark, strik-
ing face with its bold, prominent, gilt
tering eyes and sinister lines; and she
had not liked his suave, sweet, insin-
uating voice or his subtle manner, with
its slow bows and gestures.
Don Carlos has been after Flor
euce for long time" said Alfred
"He's not young man BY any means.
He's fifty, Bill says; but you can sell
dom tell Mexican's age from his
looks. Don Carlos Is well educated
Ailu uldu we KNOW very ullIc dDOul'
Mexicans of his stamp don't regard
women as we white men do. Now,
my dear, beautiful sister from New
York, | haven't much use for Don Car
los; but | don't want Nels or Ambrose
to make wild throw with a rope and
pull the Don off his horse. SO you had
better ride up to the house and stay
there"
alfred, you are Joking, teasing me-"
said Madeline.
Indeed not" replied Alfred. "How
about 1t, Flor"
Florence replied that the cowboys
would upon the slightest provocation
treat Don Carlos with less ceremony
and gentleness than a roped steer. Old
Bill Stillwell came up to be importuned
by Alfred regarding the conduct Of
cowboys on occasion, and he not only
corroborated the assertion, but added
emphasis and evidence Of his own.
"An', Miss Majesty" he concluded,
II reckon If Gene Stewart was rdin'
