Bob was going through some "sort of queer contortions now, He appeared to have looped the rope around his foot, and to be stari- ing a motion of "pumping" as a boy would do in a swing. "But he gathered momentum slowly. He scemed first to swing the wrong way--parallel to the cliff' dwelling ledge, rather than towad it-- and he had to slov down, then start anew.

The life drama of a kingdom! The whtie girl thought of this in a flash again, and instantly realized that she was seeing an- other dramatic moment here. Only --this onc was not'in retrospect, not for calm historical study. It was tremendously near and real, She strained to sce Bob Barry, The arc of his swing was incred:~ ibly large now. And he was still "pumping." Suddenly - she "knew his plan, She realized what he hoped to do, "No! Oh no!" She breathed it, almost as a prayer. The distance seemed much too' grat, In that instant, Marty Melissa knew that it mattered terribly, It Matters To Her She knew that it mattered to her, personally, and irrevocably, She didn't phrase it, even to her self, as love. But she knew. The tightening within her, the actual physical pain in her heart, 'was keencr than it would have been . if she saw a calual acquaintance in danger. In the latter circumstance, she would have screamed. She might have run, and shouted advice, any- thing in her high alarm, But-- this feeling was different. Deeper, somehow. In the strain cf the mo- ment she touched something di- vine--and prayed to it, mumbled her petitions without restraint or *. shame. More given to physical action in such emergencies, old Hades Jones had abruptly disappeared, - running. Frankly, he had no idea what he would accomplish, but he hastened toward the trees at the foot of the great cliff. At least he would be on hand when Bob Barry fell. Honey Bee Girl, being of a less demonstrative race anyway, had uttered no words. She just wait- ed. Her mother and her grand- mothers for many generdtions back had felt no qualms at death. Nevertheless, those same women had known what love-for-a-man was. Robert Barry had been kind- er to Honey Bee Girl than any _ other white man, or any other red man for ihat matier, had ever been. Not the thought of death, as such, but tho thought of dang- er to this particular man, caused some - strange, 'unexplained 'ree action within her. She watched and waited, breathing hard, ~ But what of Scott Holliman-- he who had accompanied Bob to the eliff top -and let down the rope? : It hadn't taken his employer long to- disappear over the edge of the. cliff. Holliman had warn- ed him to be careful, but in Bob Barry was the supreme confidence of young physical strength. Holliman could see nothing after Bob disappeared. The rim curved precariously for six or eight 'feet before the edge was reached, and he dared:not try to peer over at Bob.:He had just let the rope out slowly as instructed, then held it, snubbed, when it was almost 'gone. x The Rope Slackens It occurred to him that he hadn't beon told when fo pull his boss back up. He wasn't sure he could pull him back anyway. The cliff edge was of sharp jagged rock. It would: cut into the rope, maybe sever ik : 2 This thought suddenly stattled Holliman. He made sre that his end/ of - the rope -was 'tied, then went as close to the edge as he dared. "Mr. Barry?! he. called. No answer. {Holliman yelled it, but still got no reply. Then he, too, realized fhat the wind was whipping the sound away. Sudden ;alarm struck him. He puldn't see Barry, nor communicate with him, He did peer over far enough to see Hades Jones running, And the two women were moving aboul and pointing fp. But he was un- able to. dedyce anything from that. 1 . He 'noticed imotion in the rope, and quickly grabbed it. There were| slight regular jerks - for a bit. Then :a; swaying 'pull, first right then left. In alarm he looked - at thé -rocky edge whero the rope disappeared, The fiber was indeed beginning to fray! Holliman strained to pull if up | to a fresh spot, lest it be sawed apart, But Barry was .a heavy man, and friction at the rock was too great. "Good Lord!" Holliman growled, genuinely. alarmed now. He looked desperately around. him, i «The man felt peculiarly help- less, He did quickly decide to let out a few inches more of rope-- there wasn't very mich left--and 80 put a fresh place on the sharp rock edge. That lessened one dan- ger, he felt. : He. shouted ; again, and = again, but no "answer. The alternate tightening of the rope indicated a swinging or swaying. Holliman's alarm mounted. Then suddenly the rope slack- ened, Holliman fell back prone "with the sudden give of it. He held it then, limpyin, his. hands, "and. stared at it. : vi (Ts be Contiued) : 3 "ISSUE!NO. 16540 TIX =~ By SADIE B.

This is a vastly impertant subject, --when we are told, that about one-half of our population are suffering from amemia. A suffic- jent cause fcr this - condition is found in the fact, that the average diet is deficient in iron. The hu- man body has a storage of 43 grains of iron, and loses daily one 250 thousands of a grain (% gr). This normally must" be made up - and the anemic should as well as making up, increase the iron con- tent daily, Foods high in-iron in . the order given gre,--peas, beans ~and lentils, whole wheat cereals and breads, nuts (especially al monds and pecans), Then come - dried fruits with dates having the highest iron contonts,' Following this we have meat, with liver the. highest, then the eggs, fresh; fruit and vegetables, and 'lastly the brown sugar and molasses are the most important. The beverages of these planned meals I am leaving to your choice, but always keep in mind, that the substitutes for tea and coffee are usually rich in whole grain products, therefore valuable for their'iron.
