THE STEP BEYOND

lust step beyond the barrier
y which have so long defied us, ant
! we are. sure of our ground, certain Of
realizing our fondest hopes, ant
marching on and on with the victors
The thought thrills us with citation
but how hard 1t is to make the final
stride when we are worn and weary
| Human nature is prone to lose cour-
age when the chase is tiresome.
1t incllnes to become disheartened
when carefully worked out plans and
calculations fail Immediately to pro-
duce anticipated results.
| The fatal fault with most Of us is
lack OF patience, coupled with an incli-
nation to be governed by impulse
rather than reason at the turning mo-
ment when everything is dependent
on calmness and firmness of purpose
We incline to haste when we should
go slowly and take accurate account
OF our energy, where we should con-
serve 1t, that our minds may not be
filed with fear and finally overcome
with sickening apprehension.
In business, as in love- most of our
miserable failures result from our re-
fusal to consider seriously the step

For some paltry reason, within of
the fancy, or a laxity of activity, we
find ourselves at the crucial moment
weary of the chase.
So we sit in the inviting shade of

and capture the prize, only a step

The blame Is our own. But the

WHERE DUTY CALLS.


This country is very much divided
on the question of the United States
becoming full member of the League
of Nations, and that division is not
along party lines. The league has
strong advocates and bitter opponents
in both of the great political parties
Millions of Americans are opposed to
this country mixing up in European
affairs They dread the possibility Of
being dawn into another foreign war.
But there are other millions who con
tend that there can be no stability in
world affairs until America takes her
stand by the side of the other ma
lions and assumes her share of the
burdens and responsibilities of world
reconstruction.
Even the wisest men of our nation
are at variance ON this question.
One thing, however. is morally Ger
tain. Unless the nations of Europe
reach some fair and just basis of an
early settlement Of their rapidly grow.
ing differences. thereby making pos
sible a restoration of the industry and
commerce of the world, it is but a
question of time when the lid will be
blown off again and hell will become
an iceburg compared to the next fur
mace of war. Our first duty is to our
own country and to our own people,
but undoubtedly we owe duty to the Il
world in the present crisis. Just how 4
far that duty should carry us is the
question of the hour, and it is a diff
ficult one to solve. We can not af {

neither should we contribute to the !

CHAPTER XVII
Don Carlos.

Stewart took Nels, Monty and Nick
Steele aside out of earshot, and they
evidently entered upon an earnest col
loquy. Presently the other cowboys
were called. They all talked more or
less, but the deep voice of Stewart
predominated oyer the others. Then
the consultation broke up, and the
cowboys scattered.
Rustic, you Indians!" ordered
Stewart
The ensuing scene Of action was not
reassuring to Madeline and her friends.
They were quiet, awaiting some one
to tell them what to do. At the Offset
the cowboys appeared to have for
gotten Madeline. Some of them ran
off into the woods, others into the open,
grassy places, where they rounded up
the horses and burros. Several cow
boys spread tarpaulins upon the
ground and began to select and roll
small packs, evidently for hurried
travel. Nels mounted his horse to ride
down the trail. Monty and Nick Steele
went off into the grove, leading their
horses. Stewart climbed up steep
tumble Of stone befween two sections
of low, cracked cliff back of the camp.
Madeline's friends all importuned
her: Was there real danger? Were
the guerrillas coming? Would start
be made at once for the ranch? Why
had the cowboys suddenly become so
d;fforon+2 Madeline answered as hest
she could; but her replies were only
conjecture, and modified to allay the
fears of her guests. Helen was in
white glow of excitement.
Soon the cowboys appeared riding
barebacked horses, driving in others
and the burros. Some Of these horses
we're taken away and evidently hidden
in deep recesses between the crags.

She was more inclined to eyasive kind.
ness here than to sincerity, for she
had decided uneasiness. The swift
change in the manner and looks OF
her cowboys had been a saeck TO her.

the light from it rose in a huge, fan.

from the cliff. The distance was short.
and occasionally she could distinguish
a word spoken by the cowboys. They
were unconcernedly cooking and eating.
Presently Nick Steele silenced the

hand. The cowboys bent their heads.

her might. She heard one of the
hounds whine, then the faint beat of
horses hoofs. The beat of hoofs grew
louder, entered the grove, then the
circle of light. The rider was Nels.
He dismounted, and the sound of his
low voice just reached Madeline.

moved to mount.
"Nels, don't make me forget we've
been friends" he said.
"Shore amt fergettin'," replied
Nels. San 1 resign my job right here

His strange speech checked the
mounting cowboy. Stewart stepped
down from the stirrup. Then their
hard faces were still and cold while
their eyes locked glances.
Madeline was as much startled by
Nels' speech as Stewart. Quick to
note a change in these men, she now
sensed one that was unfathomable.

But listen. Never mind now what

Il have no wish to hear your rea-

"Sir!'
Stewart underwent another swift
change. He started violently. A dark
tide shaded his face and a glitter
leaped to his eyes. He took two
strides-loomed over her.
I'm not thinking about myself" he
Numbered. "Will you listen?
NO." she replied; and there was
freezing hauteur in her voice. With a
sllght gesture Of dismissal, unmistak-
able in its finality, she turned her back
upon him. Then she Joined her guests.
Stewart stood perfectly motionless.
Then slowly he began to lift his right
hand in which he held his sombrero.
He swept it up and up, high over his
mead. His tall form lowered. With
fierce suddenness he flung his sombrero
down. He leaped at his black horse
and dragged him to where his saddle
lay. With one pitch he tossed the
saddle upon the horses back. His
strong hand flashed at girths and
straps. Every action was swift, de-
cisive, fierce. Bounding for his bride,
which hung over a bush, he ran against
cowboy who awkwardly tried to
avoid the onslaught.
Get out Of my way!" he yelled.
Then with the same savage haste
he adjusted the bride on his horse.
"Mebbe you better hold on a min

was light. Nels appeared down the
trail and his horse was running. In
another moment he was in the circle,
pulling his bay back to sliding halt.
He leaped off abreast of Stewart.
Madeline saw and felt a difference
in Nels' presence.

sharply.
Nels' long arm shot out, and his
hand fell upon Stewart, holding him
down.
