Webb said in jl quiet voice to tlie two men be iiicl. And he took tlie guard ivatc'n banded hint. Out across tiie slecpitig berd. .i cowboy was singing a lone>c«iiie. lulling sonq. There is an indclinable spe'l about nigbt guard. It creeps into a cowboy's heart like a plaintive melody. It i.^ on starry nights, when the berd is (juiVl. that the cowboy dreams as be rides, singiiij,; l:is song to his cattle. Always his song carries that note of lonesome- ncss that is the cowboy's lot. These nigbt hours arc when he remem- bers bits of tilings, things that co to make a cowboy's life. He rides around at a swinging valk, cased in bis saddle. He thinks, perhaps, of tosvn and it, brief pleasures at shipping time. He thinks of home, a home be left to drift along a lonesome trail. Pas; pleasures, past regrets. The stars overhead and a good horse between his legs. .\ sweetheart who wain for him. So be sings bi^ song to his cattle. Old Hank Kobtris had chosen his hour for talk.

"It was ,1 Saturday night; no school oi a Sunday. .N'ow, my night liorse was a plumb gentle, biscuit-eaiin' feller. .\ black-and- white paint horse called Ulackfoot. I laid over and took her horseback ridin'. Monday morniiR' I rode on to where the ( irdc iJiamond wagon was camiied. Hut I was shy a ivglit horse.

V'cp. when a man cares aliout a v.onian. he's got to quit liis fool cowboy ways and act like he was hitman, 'lake a j oung feller your age. for instance, with one of the finest and ganie.st little girls that ever lived, a-carin' for him so much she can't sleep "nights for wor- lyin' about him. If that feller was smart, he'd quit tryin' to go bronco. He'd quit licrdin' with outlaws and he'd quit bncUin' a losin' game. He'd sell out and marry that girl fiid fake her to a new range and make a home for her. He wouldn't go chargin' around all over the country packin' a gun and huntin' tremble. Webb Wiiiiei.-. .-.tared .-.traigbt ahead when he answered ibc sber- i.f. "Vou're talkin' through your hat, Hank. Talkin' loco. \'on don't savvy the layout. Mac don't care about nic like that. Man. slic was goin' to inarry Hob Anderson. Hob just naturally uorsliippcd her. He's kep' mc awake many a nigbt tellin' me liow lie was goin' lo make their home so that she'd be conlcnl to live on a ranch. P.ob and me bad planned on addin' a big room lo his cabin. A big stone liic|)lacc and some Injun rugs and bear hides on the floor. Keal dishes instead of the ones he had. "1 helped him pick the lurnilme out of the catalogue, bamy dishes. a whole set of 'cm. Crockery and new cookin' hardware. A real stove. A sofa and easy chairs for the bijj room. A lalkin' machine with a fancy born. V\c put in half the nights last winter markin' out in the catalogue what he'd need. The catalogue and the list is in Bob's cabin riglit now. I never saw a man care for a woman like Bob Anderson eared for Mac. "Ibrn the damned skunks lunr- dcred bim. I'.ob is dead. I'm goin' lo live long enough to pay 'em off in their own kind of muney. l?ol> was my pardner." Webb Winters bad spoken quiet- ly. Too quietly lo suit old Hank Roberts, who knew bow lo read men. He caught that note of hnal- ily and be knew that nothing he could say or do would aller Webb's plans. He made one l.isl effort, howevei. "Webb, son, did you ever ask Mae 1(1 niarr\- voiiV "No." "But voii thought a he,tp nf her?" "So did Bob. Hank, he just plumb worshipped Mae" "And von rode off and let Bob do bis conrlin'. I don't rei kon it ever striuk you that it «;is yon, not r.ob Anilersnn, that she eared most for. I don't reckon it ever got llnough Ihal thick skull of yoiirn that she was niarryin' Bob because she figured that jon'd never come around, comtin'. "Webb, that girl i.s vMirrym' her heart out these days. Shi- looks peaked and she cries when s|ie's alone. Her eyes give her away. She thought a heap of Rob Ander- son because be just sort o( wor- shipped her. Bob got killed and she'll never iinile git over it, be- cause he always treated her lo gieal.

When llicy were ab.^ut eight days old !bc young robins began n'.aking chipping noises and some- times they would stand up in the nest and flap I heir sturdy little wings. One time one little fellow hopiied on lo the ledge, bnt soon j;ol nervous and cuddled down in the nest again. That is, nniil today, today was their big day . . . and mine, loo.

So one by one the lillle lledg !iiigs. chipping nervously, flew dc^wii to the nearest tree.

Tbat done, they would return again and start chip- ping as vigorously as ever. The little birds that were left in the nest would answer shrilly in re- turn.
