In her own walk of life even the basest of men approached her clad in linen and broadclothâ€"sleek beastsâ€"with civility; but here were males Whose lean jaws clamped upon food with the eager haste of wolves, men primitive as Picts, with less of lav: than Zuius. They were not out- laws from society. for they had never known society. They were desperadoes for diversion. Raymond's motive in thrusting them out appeared more and more a deed to win applause. It lowered him, made him less admirable in every way, and when he spoke to her she withdrew into herself with a glance which chill- ed and depressed him. Ann could hear their threats as they rode away, and Louis, breathless, ab- sorbed, his mouth open, stood in the doorway. Raymond‘s hand dropped upon his shoulder, and he landed outside the. door on all fours. With his hand on his revolver. the young foreman stepped out and watched them mount. The powerful young rancher, a mix- ture of barbarlsm and culture, engross. ed her quite as a mountain lion might have done. Hls action could not be foretold, and she was amazed to 11nd herself carried entirely outside herself, shaken and dismayed. .As he set to work to put the table ln order, 111th and sullen as before. she watched him They perceived his deadly earnest- ness and trumped out. but Speckle blustered: “I see you again.

He can fight his own fire; we’re not responsible.” They all laughed as though this were a good joke. Raymond‘s next words were as cold and calm as they were unexpected. ”You get up and get out 0’ here, every man of you. I mean now.” His anger broke out as they started. “I don’t “Why didn’t you ride over and just where it was '2” asked Raymond “Too busy,” Speckle replied loudly, and the others laughed. “I’m after gold now.

HAMLIN GARLAND The men shoved back oné by one and with sly. curious glances at the girl, sitting so cold and white and still against the wall, went out to smoke and discuss her with the driver. Bak- er, mindful of his duties, remained. “Don’t be uneasy, miss. One of us will stay here anyhow.” Ann reached the door just as Ray- mond dashed up and swung from his saddle. His voice was not loud, but it was stirring. “Boys, the fire is climbing the ridge. and we’ve got to fight it. Gather up your blankets and gunny sacks. We'll find Williams over there with some water barrels. Hustle “Well, we’ll know wfien Rob gets back,” replied Baker, and Ann 111- ferrcd from this that Raymond had ridden away to locate the fire, and heartily hoped he would not be gone long. Louis was looking over his sketching material, his mind busy with plans for work, when a shout outside announced Raymond’s return. The lad rushed to the door. “Oh, Ann, come quick!" he called a moment later. “Here he comes! Oh, can’t he ride!” mw! I‘ll be along a little later. Tom, You take charge till I come.” “The way I put it up is this,” bleat- ed the liveryman: “That fire started from somebody campin’ over on Birch creek, and it‘s ’way beyond the ridge. It’s got to cross that rocky wash be- fore it can do any damage.” With groans and half jocular curses the weary men, loyal to their duty, scattered to rope fresh ponies and gather up such material as they had for fighting flame, while Raymond came to the door and brusquely said to Ann: “I’ll leave Baker to look after 3 Miss Rupert. I hope you won‘t 1' _ «‘b'v- ~-.._ The talk among the men shifted again to a discussion of the fire. “I hope Bob won‘t order us out to fight it to- night. I'm tired as a dog,” said one of the men. “They‘re talking about Sky camp," whispered Louis. “the new mining town.” “So am I, ” said one of the other cow- boys, :1 dark smi.cless fellow nearly forty years of age. “The-y told the same kind 0’ yarns about {Em-ob, and see how it turned out. They ain‘t an ounce 0’ gold in this whole Rampart range. It ain’t the right kind 0’ formation.” “Well. I‘m goin’ up there anyhow.” said Baker “as soon as Barnett can fill my place "But they‘ve found the gold. They can’t be no question about it now. I’ve got a brother up there, and he writes The liveryman, a short, dirty and very assertive man of small wit, was maintaining himself against one of the riders in an argument. “I punched cattle all over them hills.” he was say- ing. “1 know it‘s all another fake like that old Mount Horeb business in ’70. It’s nothin‘ but a cattle rangeâ€"a lot 0’ smooth hills”â€" , “Maybe it is for the best, but I have a feeling that something is going to happen to you. I don’t like to go back without you. I’ll stay on a day or two longer anyhow. I want to find out more about conditions here. I have a queer feeling at my heart. I don’t want to leave you. Let us go in.” A kerosene lamp stood among the dishes. and the driver of their team and two late coming horsemen and the Mexican boy were all eating together. Raymond was not to be seen, and Ann realized. with a pang of dismay, how wholly she was depending upon him. "Without him I shall be scared," she admitted to herself. he other men paid very little direct a tention to her beyond a moment's awkward pause and a lowering of their voices. They continued to discuss the fire and their day’s work. It was plain that they were of difi’erent temper from the crowd Raymond had thrown from the door, and yet they were not prepossess- mg. Ann smiled. but answered doubtfully, "He seems :1 mm. resolute fellow.” Her sisterly anxiety reappeared. “But I don’t like to leave you here, Buddie. Thege men, the best of them, seem rough and reekless. I think you’d bet- ter go back with meâ€"reaily I do.” "Oh, no! I‘m all right here, sis.

Don't you think “You’re needed night here.” She turned to the dim purple range, crumpled into ridges and slashed with deep valleys. “They may be alluring to you, laddie, but they scare meâ€"a lit. tle. Well, perhaps you'll be able to go and see what they are like by and by, when you are stronger.” Louis, who had gone to see the sun- set, called to her excitedly, and as she stepped outside the door she, too, caught her breath in wonder and ad- miration. from her corner with intent gaze. “How deeply can I trust him?” she asked herself. “Don admires him, and he certainly is a man of intelligence.” HAMLIN GARLAND.

I’ve felt like a dough boy for some time, andâ€"well, I’m just about decided to try my: luck up at the big camp. I wish you would take a letter to Barnett and be sure that he reads it. I want him to send another man down here to take my place. But, see here, you‘re both tired and want to go to bed.” He rose and lighted a second lamp. “Mrs. Barnett’s bed is in this room”â€"he opened a door on the side oppositeâ€"“I’ll see if it is prepared.” Ann interposed. “Oh, no! I’m not so helpless as that. Let me take the light. I will do very well. never fear.” He replied bluntly: “I don’t know. I came here six years ago because I hadn’t any trade and the cattle busi- ness was attractive, and I’ve been here ever since.” Nevertheless, this sense of being a sneak and a cheat threw over him a gloomy and preocccupied air which vexed Ann, who began to question him very much as she would have done had she discovered unusual powers in her coachman. “How do you happen to be out here, Mr. Raymond?" “But you are wasting your time and talents." Raymond walked slowly toward the house, filled with a guilty Joy. In- stead of a night of hard riding and la- borious wet bag swinging he had giv- en himselt the pleasure of sitting in conversation with a beautiful and cul- tured girl. “I haven’t earned this,” he admitted. “I don’t deserve it. It's too good to be true, but Barnett will ap- prove. Anyhow, I'm going to enjoy it while I can.’ “Well, all is, when you meet him next you pull first," the little man replied very seriously. Raymond was unimpressed. “They’re halfway to Wallace by this time, and, besides, Speck is a big bluff anyway. We're rid of him forever.” I sternly replied. “We’re likely to be out all night, and your sister needs you." “Couldn’t Baker go in your place in 3 asked Ann very quietly. 1 “Jack isn’t very energetic.

I’d advise you to look out for old Turkey Egg there. He has it in for you.” At last the men were all mounted and, with a final command from the boss, spurred away into the gloom, wmplaining, weary, but faithful. Ray- mond felt a little foolish as he faced the: liveryman from Wallace. Out by the corrals the trampling and snorting of excited ponies could be heard mingled with the muttered oaths of the men as they hurriedly roped and saddled. The sky was darkening rap- idly, and the pillar of smoke already glowed like a brazen tower. It rose straight into the air for hundreds of feet, then spread away into a long, level cloud, showing that the wind had not yet begun to fan the flame. Amy was accustomed to men who flew to do her bidding, but this instant victory over the big rancher pleased her unaccountably, and she laughed softly, acknowledging a glow of con- fidence and relief in the promise or his presence. His face lighted up. “True enough.” After a moment’s hesitation he added: “Very well, consider me your protector and cook. Baker is in for it.” And he went away filled with a delicious sense of having suddenly been honored above his desert. “You’re not the boss. You’re only the cookfi' He warmed beneath the allurement of her glance. “But how would it look for the boss to remain comfortably at home While a fire”â€" ‘;But you said you’d take care of us, and Mr. Barnett has consigned us to your care.” rm duty. ” "Th z’lt 3 why I (1 rather you stayed,” Ann said. ‘ If we should be attacked by Indians or anything, Mr. Baker might be asleep.” fie laughed. “Indians!

"Two years ago our little girl had a touch of pneumonia, which left her with an awful cough. She had spells of coughing, just like one with the whooping cough and some thought she would not get well at all. We got a bottle of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy which acted like a charm.
