Better late than never with this
happening at the automobile
show. Two young things stopped
at the Cadillac booth and asked
the price of the new Cadillac six

"Eighty-five hundred" he said.
"Oooh, just think" exclaimed
one of them. LESS than a thou

that I haven't had time to write.
Uncle Bill, he's marvellous. Every
body thinks so and says so-conseQuent-
ly it must be true. His lawyer, Don

sings and plays divinely, he Is sort of
feudal baron and he works hard all day
with his men. He hasn't laid of a day

with him. He has thousands of acres
of cotton, thousands more of alfalfa,
thousands more of cattle range and all
the cattle in the world. He still suffers
a little from the wounds Uncle Tom in
fiicted on him, but will not admit this
He's very humorous and one never

w WITH the calmness of despair
n Crooked Bill scrutinized the
NV photographs that Roberta
inclosed. The one of Don
Jaime showed him on
gray horse with day-old calf draped
across his lap.
"Caramba!" murmured Crooked Bill.

well, Roberta says If he'd only make
love to her like q reasonable man shed
fall for him hard. That means she's
still safe. Bill Latham, you're an
asa cocksure old ass-and you've got
to get that girl back home in a hurry.
She says nothing about sheep, which
proves she is not interested in them:
that her interests lie elsewhere. Those
internal sheep and my foolish schem-
ing sent her to Texas and in order to
get her home those sheep must be dis
posed of-in a hurry. I'll have to buy
them myself and if that HiEuenes
bandit ever gets on to the identity Of
the purchaser he'll induce her to soak
me so hard, when I'm unable to defend
myself, that I'll never have the heart
to eat mutton chop again."
Long did Crooked Bill ponder. The
question that gnawed at him, even as
the fox gnawed at the vitals of the
Spartan youth, was, Whom could he
get to buy the sheep for him and, after
having secured them, to whom would
he sell them? What would he do with
them If they were not readily salable?
Would he be forced to rent pasturage
for them and hire herders to watch
them? If SO, he would have to hire
watchers to watch the herders.
Well" he sighed presently, "of one
thing I'm certain. I'm in the sheep
business right now and the sooner get
out of 1t the better for all concerned.
Glenn, my boy, fighting your fight is
going to be mighty expensive, but as
an adjunct to the family I guess you're
worth it." He telephoned to his office
in New York, instructing it to secure
him transportation and drawing room
to Los Algodones, Tex, and the follow
ing day was en- route to consummate
the crookedest piece of business he had
ever contemplated-tha of swindline
himself! He solaced himself, however,
with the reflection that this was q lux
ury he could afford.
In due course he arrived In Los Al
godones and put up at the Mansion
House. Neither the town nor the hotel

announced and soothed his conscience
with the thought that It was his middle
name. II understand you're the attor-
ney for Tom Antrim's estate"
Don Prudencio, a stout and affable
person Of so, nodded gravely, and with
large dark eyes, which showed q yellow
ish tinge in the whites of them, in
quired of what interest the Tom An
trim estate might be to Mr. Blodgett.

Bill soliloquized. Hes developed Just

founded lazy to open his mouth and

Are they for sale?"
"A sale might be arranged, weeth the
consent of the court, Senior Blodgett,"
Don Prudencio answered guardedly.

Don Prudencio shrugged Maybe So"

Crooked Bill meanwhile was wonder
ing why his niece was such poor cor
respondent, when Harms, the butler, en-
tered with the mail. The envelopes, one
slim and the other fat, bore the return
address Of the Rancho Vale Verde, so
Crooked Bill opened the slim one and
read
MY Dear Mr.. Latham:
"I wired you for permission to pay my
court to your very lovely niece, Miss
Roberta Antrim. In granting the de-
sired permission, for which am deeply
grateful. you saw fit to give me some
wholly unnecessary and rather silly ad-
vice on how to be successful in love.
MY father, In his callow youth, may
have been STEPPED In the Castilian code
Of courtship. He had more Spanish
blood in his veins than his son. But
am no such bungling operator in the
arena Of courtship. I'll have you know
that I'm real live nephew Of your own
Uncle Sam, because I judge from your
telegram that you think I'm as senti-
mental and romantic as Neapolitan
street singer.
"My dear Mr.. Latham, you know
nothing of your niece's disposition. The
finest way in the world for me to kill
my feeble prospects would be for me to
wangle a guitar under her window and
sing "Sobre las Olas." And, anyhow,
what's your interest in me that causes
you to be so free with your foolish adj
vice? I suspect you would like to get
me in Dutch.
''I think she likes me, but she doesn't
know whether I'm crazy about her or
not, even when swear am. I figure
that the best way to get her winging is
to keep her guessing, but-quien sabe!
If you have any other suggestions for
helping along the game of your old
friend Patricio Jesus Higuenes' son, let
them ny.
Sincerely yours,
j. M. HIGUENES."
Crooked Bill read and reread this re-

THE BOYS AND GIRLS
QUESTION BOX
So Simple That Anybody Car
Ask Them
But Can You Answer Then?
1. How long do animals. live?
2. How far off is the horizon?
8. Why cannot we see the air?

1. While the age to which men and
WOMEN live has been rather accurately
determined, the question asked can
not be exactly answered. The prize,
however, has been given to the tor
toise, which, under favorable condi-
tions, lives between 300 and 400 years.
Then, the crocodile, If given a fair
chance, can live for 300 years. The
elephant and the eagle often reaches
a hundred, and scientists have esti-
mated that the whale will live to be
500 years old. The average life of a
cat is IS years, and dog Is, while
the horse has natural span of life
of 20 years.
2. The horizon is the place where
the sky and the earth appear to
meet. Of course, they do not, but it
simply seems so to our eyes. The dis
lance to the horizon depends chiefly
on how high our eyes are from the
level Of the sea or the land. The
higher up we are the farther we can
see. For instance, if your eyes are
four feet above the level and your
vision is not DISTRACTED, the horizon
will be two and half miles away. If
six feet, you can see three and
fourth miles. If you are ITO feet high
you can see Ia miles and if you are
one mile high you can see SO miles.
In other words, the earth is round and
the higher up we are the farther we
can see.
8. The reason why we cannot see
the air is that it is transparent, like
glass-that is to say, it lets light go
through it. In a sense YOU can see
