mo" replied Billy in his usual grave
manner. 1T left him with you"
WAS it you that fre-stick tried &c
kill?" asked Nanny.
Gravely Billy shook his head. "No,'
said he. II feared it might be you. '
Then it must have been our darling, y
bleated Nanny. 1T must have been
him, and probably he has been killed.
Oh. why did let him 90 OF by him

Just then she heard a faint, pitiful
bleat, and without thought of her own
safety, rushed in that direction. Billy
following. There behind a big rock,
trembling with fright but alive and
seemingly unframed. was Kid Surefoot.
Needless of danger, she rushed to him.
She had to cross an open space In
view of that opposite slope where the
hunter was hidden among the rocks.
AS she did so there was another sharp
report and a little bunch Of hair few
from Nanny's back, cut by q bullet
from that terrible gun. Behind the
rock with the Kid she was safe. But
to get back out of sight Of that hunter
they would have to cross that open
space again.
Billy saw this. Stay where you are

and started to climb swiftly to q ledge
higher up which commanded full view
Of the slope where the hunter lay hid
den. He stepped out on the ledge and
calmly looked down on the opposite
slope. OF course, the hunter saw him
instantly. He forgot Nanny and the
Kid. Billy, with his long beard, was
the one he wanted. It was long
shot. but there was O chance that he
could get him. He aimed with the
greatest care, and fred. There was O
little pun Of dust at Billys feet and
Billy moved o few steps, then turned
to look back. The hunter fred again,
and this time Billy gave a little jump.
Then he turned and rapidly climbed
beyond range.
While this was going on Nanny had
seen her chance to lead Kid Surefoot
to safety. Now, she was worried over
Billy, and 1t was with q sigh of relief
that she saw him coming to join them.
There was spot of red on one flank
of his white coat "Oh, my dear, you
are hurt" she cried.
1T is nothing" replied Billy, and in
fact 1t wasn't much more than a
scratch. Now, you two follow me.
When there are hunters with terrible
about the only thing to do
Is to climb where they cannot follow"
So Billy led the way up, up where
the Kid had never been before and
where no man could follow. He kept
close to his mothers heels, and in his
heart was such fear as he never had
known before, and with 1t was hate

man, and his fire-stick.

Hate Is Born Of Fear.
Who greatly fears will soon or late
Find in his heart q burning hate.
Old Mother Nature.

1t always has been so. and probably
always will be so. Fear comes first,
and If it is long continued, or even If
1t Is sudden and very great, it is almost
always followed by hate. hate of the
cause of the fear. 1t happened just
this way to Kid Surefoot.
He had wandered off by himself, and
at last stood on a little ledge admiring
q wonderful view. It was as peaceful
scene as 1t was wonderful. Then in one
little second all was changed There

JUAREz CLEANS
 UP HER SALOONS

Juarez, Mexico, (UP)-Juarez is undergoing a cleanup to become a moral place where American tour ists con do their drinking.
 The largest city on the Mexican United States border is being puri- fled by Mayor Baltazar Adame "f any influences that might shock the thirsty Americans.
 While the gambling is expected to go on unabated at the Tivoli here to give the Americans a pie ture of that kind of sport, the bar rooms are being made more moral and artistic.
 First Governor Andres Ortiz, of Chihuahua, investigated the number of drinking places in this border town of 30,00O. He found 140, and issued an order that no more bars could be opened.
 Then the girls who frequent some of the bars unescorted were given attention. The result was that they were sent back to the Zone"
 Officers next scanned the srt work in the bars and decreed that many of the sportive nymphs n',:sr come down.
 Consequently, Miguel Ayala, bar room inspector, is busy inspecting bar room pictures to determine what is art and what is lewdness.

 offerings were much lighter on this mornings farmers market. Unfavor-
 able wet weather since the sart of
 the berry picking season has dam
 aged the crop to such an extent that growers predict 8 quick end to the season, few more being looked for after the end of this week. Rain early in the morning slowed up buying interest in strawberries with the result that prices were not much higher than yesterday, about soc to $1.00 per crate advanced. With clear weather it was thought that the light supply would have caused prices to advance much more sharply. Only about one-third as many were on sale as yesterday morning. They sold mostly from $4.00 to 4.50 per crate. Beets and cabbage were more li- beral and sold lower. Lettuce was liberal continued weak. Peas were somewhat lower. Spinach was in lighter supply and sold higher. 75c per bushel being paid late in the morning after the bulk was sold out.
