It}: had done. \Vhen she ralled to Dan he was so sound asleep with his hroad~ hrim hat over his face that he did not hear her. His horse was near him grazing and Sine on the outer edges of the tloek. Sine recognized Mrs, Porter and came running to her. At that instant the horse reared and threw himself harkward in a wild leap. .-\ growl broke from the throat of the dog. and he in- stantly sprang toward his master. Mrs, l’orter realized from the ac- tion of the dog that there was sonwtliins.r he knew which she did not. Sine barked wildly in short dry yelps and Dan became eon- srious or the dog’s danger signal; He felt. Sino hrnsh his shoulder inl his leap and heard a sickening buzz that he recognized. Still half asleep he had only sense to realize that the. danger lay in front of him. so he. whirled and rolled over and over in the opposite direction and then he sat. no in time to see Sino‘s \vide side leap as ahig rattlesnake struck at him, The crack ol‘ Dan‘s revolver came. on the instant and the life of the snake was ended. The noise of the revolver srattered the sheep and Sine darted away to his oc- rnpation. At‘tr a little he returned with his tail waving like a banner of_ virtory. After lunch Mrs. Porter decided she would take a small camera and get some more pictures of the sheep. and sweet corn. Sino went at his work voluntarily, darting around the outer edges of the flock, hrin - ing back the strays, forcing stu horn leaders that ranged too far to turn and head in the direction desired. By noon the were all tired and when the aroma!) and Mrs. Porter went to the ranch house for lunch, Dan sat .down to eat his lunch and after he had eaten it, a compelling combination overtook him. He had lost sleep the night before, he was wind beaten, sand was smarting in his eyes and he had a full stomach, so he turned the bridle over Decko’s nose, and lay down on a sloping spot to sleep. The sheep scattered in a circle around the. shepherd and his horse. Sino raced around the outer edges of the l-ircumference. turning back strays that wanted to head in the direction of the water and the alt- alfa fields. When Gene Stratton Porter was on a Nebraska mnch wntmg and illustrating a history of. big ranch actmties for an American maga- zine, she went one forenoon to the sheep corrals and took several pic- tures of the shoe after they were released from t e corrals.
