in your Bowels!

Keep your bowels open during a
cold. Only doctor knows the i'm
portance Of this. Trust a doctor to
know best how it can be done.
That's why Syrup Pepsin is such
a marvellous help during colds. 1t
is the prescription Of family doc
tor who specialized in bowel trOu-
bles. The discomfort Of colds is
always lessened when it is used;
your system is kept free from
phlegm, mucus and acid wastes.
The cold is "broken-up" more easily.
Whenever the bowels need help.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sure
to do the work. 1t does not grippe
or sicken; but it's action is thor
ough. It carries off all the souring
waste and poison; helps your
bowels to help themselves.
Take a spoonful of this family
doctors laxative as soon as a cold
starts, or the next time coated
tongue, bad breath, or a bilious,
headachy, gassy condition warns Of
constipation. Give it to the chill
dren during colds or whenever
they're feverish, cross or upset.
Nothing in it to hurt anyone; it
contains only laxative herbs, pure
pepsin and other mild ingredients.
The way it tastes and the way it
acts have made it the fastest SELL
ing laxative the drugstore carries!

THE STORY


Garrett O'Hara, young lawyer,
on his way to practice at
Concho, wild western town, is
shot at from ambush by Shep
Sanderson, who mistakes him for
Judge Warner, whom certain
cattle interests wish to prevent
holding court. Barbara Steelman.
who thought the shot was d.
rected at her, warns Garrett not
to go to Concho because of the
big cattle war. Steve Worrall
tells Garrett about the cattle
war between Ingram and Steel
man, father of Barbara. Garrett
tells Ingram he desires to re-
main neutral, but the latter de-
clares there can be no neutral
ity. Bob Quantrell, young killer
for Ingram, saves Garrett and
an Englishman, -Beresford,
from being shot by Sanderson.
The three become friends. Gar
rett accidentally witnesses a
meeting between Barbara and
Ingram. They are lovers. Garrett
and the Englishman buy q ranch
with Steelman as silent partner.
Fitch, Steelman man, kills an In
gram follower. A posse, includ-
ing Quantrell and Sanderson,
capture and hang Fitch. Sander
son starts fight at the ranch
and Garrett and the Englishman
are wounded. Ingram and Bar
bara appear and put an end to
the fight. Quantrell changes
sides and Joins with the two
'tenderfeet" A lull in the cattle
war follows. Quantrell kills
Sanderson and another Ingram
gunman.

you're one of Ingrams riders?"
"Si, senor."
"What made you shoot at us? Have
you been told to kill us at sight?"
The man broke into q torrent of
Spanish, then interpreted 1t with ex-
citable broken English. The Circle
S o partners understood from what he
said that battle was in progress at
the Jerry Hughes ranch. A group of
Hashknife warriors had made a sur
prise attack upon the place and he,
Juan Garcia, returning from the pas
ture with bunch Of horses, had been
fired upon by them and made his es-
cape. When he had caught sight of
the Circle S o partners he had
jumped to the conclusion that they
were there to cut off his retreat.
Wherefore he had not waited for them
to open hostilities.
"Steelman told us this morning he
was riding down to the valley ranch
today" Smith-Beresford said.
"Yes," agreed O'Hara.
But the thought was in his mind
that Steelman might have said this to
divert suspicion. He might be with
the attackers, or he might have ridden
away, tongue in cheek, knowing that
his men were going to try to seize the
Hughes ranch. This latter alterna-
tive did not seem like him. Whatever
else might be said of him, Wesley
Steelman had the courage of his de-
cisions. He would not leave his men
to undertake what he would not at
tempt himself. More probably his
hired gunner had decided on their
own initiative to force the issue.

Controversy Ended by "Mason and Dixon" Line

AS boundary division the Mason
and Dixon" line got its name from the
two men who surveyed and established
it, Charles Mason and John Dixon. 1t
was run by agreement between the
Calverts, of Maryland, and William
Penn to settle a controversy regard
ing the boundary line between Penn
sylvania and Maryland. Mason and
Dixon came from England in 1764 for
that express purpose. They were both
men of scientific attachments, Mason
at one time being assistant at the
royal observatory at Greenwich. They
ran the line with great care, cutting
a space eight feet wide through the
forest and setting up a stone at the
end of each mile. Every fifth stone
was larger than the others and had
on the north side the arms of William
Penn and on the south those of Lord
Baltimore. The smaller, intermediate
stones had the letter ''P" on the north
surface and an" on the south, for

O'Hara named, without argument,
the concessions Steelman was willing
to make. He would keep his cattle on
the range east of the pass. He would
leave the San JacintO market to In
gram and his friends if they would not
compete with him at the Indian
agency. He would discharge any of
his men against whom there was proof
of rustling cattle. AS to the lawless-
ness of the past few months, he was
willing to let bygones be bygones.
Harvey laughed unpleasantly. He's
sure promisin' lot. Has our friends
shot up by hired killers an then is

Pennsylvania and Maryland. The line
has nothing to do with slavery, except
as it ultimately became the boundary
line between free states and the slave,
though that was not the thought at the
time. When the line was established
slavery existed in Pennsylvania as it
did in the colonies, and was not abol-
ished in Pennsylvania until 1880 and
then only by law providing that all
colored persons thereafter born within
the state should be set free at the age
of twenty-eight years.
