Is he Gage Preston?” “Yes.” “Is he a terror?” “Indeed he is—to boys whocome gallivanting after me.” “‘Pooh! exclaimed Trueman, coolly. By this time they had reached the first corral. The big gate swung ajar. Thiry led the way in. Rock espied some saddle horses, a wagon, and then a double-seat- ed buckboard hitched to a fine- looking team of roans. “Here we are,” sald ‘the girl, with evident relief. “No one come yet! I'm glad. ..

Then a clink of spurs, slow steps and thuds of hoofs sounded behind Rock. They meant nothing par- ticular to him until he saw the girl's celor fade and her fwe tum white. g despite a thick hint of liquer. “I'm not so sure of that,” he re-{“With 'nother galoot, b'gosh!

We read .some time ago of a man who deliberately and foully slew another and in the act inadvertently dropped his fountain pen upon which was engraved his name. This led to his apprehension and eventual electrocution. We hesitate to use the above as an argument to our'cus- tomers ‘in- suggesting that they buy their fountain pens where they ean get their names engraved free on'their purchase but suggest that if they are setting out: on this kind of an errand they leave their pen at home. There are so many other good reasons why it is advantageous to have one’s name engraved tpon their fountain pen:we think most ‘of our customers can afford to take a chance. The main reason is the almost certain recevery. if care- lessly left somewhere. We have a large stock of the best makes, such as PARKER, WAHL, WATERMAN in all kinds of points such as eoarse, medium, fine, hard or soft.
