Dick was almost afraid to look up at Mer- cedes. Still he forced himself to do g0, and as it chanced Mercedes was looking down at him. With a quick, graceful impulsiveness she put her hand upon his shoulder. Like her ap- pearance, the action was new, strange, striking to Gale; but it brought home suddenly to him the nature of grati- tude and affection in a girl of lher blood. It was sweet and sisterly. He knew then that he had not fallen in love with her. The feeling that was akin to jealousy seemed to be of the beautiful something for which Mer- cedes stood in Thorne's life. Gaie then grasped the bewildering possi bilities, the infinite wonder of what a girl could mean to a wman. The desert began to lighten.

Then she as helped down to walk awhile. At first she was cold and lame, and accepted the helping hand Dick proftered. After a little, however, she recovered and went on without assistance. They had reached the summit of what was evidently a high ridge sloped with much grenter steepness on the far side. It was only after a few more forward steps, however, that Dick could see down the slope. Then full in view flashed a bright campfire around which clustered a group of dark figures. They were encamped in a wide arroyo, where horses could be seen grazing in black patches of gras between clusters of tre A second look at the campers told Gale they were Mexicans. At this moment Lash came forward to join Ladd, and the two spest a long, uninterrupted mo- ment studying the arroyo. A hoarse laugh, faint yet distinct, floated upon the cool wind. “Well, Laddy, what ’r you makin’ of that outfit?” inquired Lash, speaking softly. “Same as an, fits,” replied the line for bee of them raider out- dd. “Theyre across But they'll run off “Senor, Ghapparejos and | Are Not Strangers,” She Said. any good stock.

Presently in the gray gloom he saw low. with flat roofs, Ladd rode on for perhaps a quarter of a wile, though it seemed interminably long to Dick.

As he dis- mounted, cramped and sore, he could scarcely stand. Lash came alongside. He spoke, and someone with a big hearty voice replied to him.
