Don Jaime Miguel Higuenes, a Texas rancher, and Tom Antrim, a sheep owner. have been bitter enemies, Ken Hobart. Don Jaime's manager, beiteves his employer's life is in danger. Don Jaime's mind. however, dwells on other things. He has fallen in love with a picture he has seen in a magazine—a picture of Miss Roberta Antrim, a soclety belle of Westchester. He iz attacked from ambush and shoots it out with his oppoment. Hobart finds him wounded and the opponent dead. On the bodv 15 a picture of Roberta and her address, with the request that she be motified in the event of Tom Antrim's death.

I did not de- ceive_you. You asked me if I were Jim Higgins, and I admitted it. Thea you started to work on me, and I-had a great curiosity to see how far you would go.” “If 1 had known you were Jaime Miguel Higuenes, I would have had Dingle take me over to my late uncle’s ranch. “I feared he was planning to take you there. You and your maid are the first women to get off that station in a year, and when I observed you, I suspected your identity, suspected that for some reason you had arrived a day earlier than that named in your letter. So I started to interview you, and then 1 saw Dingle Bell, as I call him, and instantly I was jealous. We Latins are a very jealous people. So I tried to kill Dingle Bell—agcording to you—al- though what I really tried to do was to puncture his tire. I owe that man a poke, and I wanted to annoy him. I thought if I could succeed in frighten- ing him away before he had an og T tunity to tell you too much—the things I wanted to tell you myself—I would be proving myself a "3 smart yo man. Well, I succeeded, didn't I?" “My Uncle Bill will think it very, very strange of me to accept the hos- g[lhllt of my Uncle Tom's-ah-remover. w shall I explain it to him?” “Don’t,” Don Jaime suggested meek- ly. 1 do it.

The boy wore a hat of the most approved cowboy pattern, with a rattlesnake band around it. His thin legs were incased in tiny chaps. “T rode all the way home with Ken, Jimmy,” he shouted, “and I'm not tired.” Then he saw Roberta and re- moved his hat. Don Jaime formally resented the boy, then snapped- his ngers at Robbie and the little chap limped over to him. “Well,” Don Jaime greeted him, and scooped the boy up in his great left arm. “We had a fine ride today, didn't we? But you disobeyed orders, Robbie. I told you to ride home with the cook in the chuck wagon and lead your pony behind. You've overdone it, son. What are we going to do about tha o Robbie looked distressed. “But I felt #0 good, Jimmy——" he began. Done Jaime shook him and set him down. “I put you on the pay roll at $10 & month. At the end of the month you'll collect nine. You are fined a dol- lar for disobedience of orders.” ‘The boy threw his arms around Don 31,“:!!'5“1'!1“. “Are you angry with me, my. “Of course not.

But my late father knew him very well. They got into an argument once as to which was the best for the country—the gold standard or Bryan's sixteen-to-one. Your Uncle Bill was an outcast in Texas, at the time being a Republican. My father, of courSe, was & Democrat. In their argu- went they waxed personal, and finally your Uncle Bill called my father an anarchistic greaser. So my father yelled: ‘Hurroo! Faugh-a-ballagh!” and hit your Uncle Bill on the nose and canted it five degrees to the southeast. My parent then ran to his horse to get his gun, which he wore in a pommel holster, and on his way there your Uncle Bill shot his hat off. This was getting per- sonal, so my father retaliated by shoot- ing your Uncle Bill in the heel.” “Why, Uncle Bill never told me about that, Don Jaime!™ “Why should he? He came off second best, didn’t he? He was drunk at the time and my father was intoxicated, otherwise_there would have been two funerals. Father was heart-broken when he sobered up. and sent his lawyer to your Uncle Bill to a?ololm. S0 your Uncle Bill accepted the apology and was a very small boy, your uncle sold out his ranch to old man Hobart, whose son, Kenneth, is now my general man- agei “How tremendously interesting, Don Jaime.” “Well, it's nice to find out who has d and who hasn't. You were certainly saddled with a prize pair of uncles, weren't you? Does Uncle Bill treat you with civility and decency?” does. He's adorable; a h love.” “Very well, then, T'll not kill him. You must agree, though, that I did you a real service in bumping off old Un- cle Tom.” “Uncle Bill says you did.” Roberta admitted. “But then he's blased.” “My father always declared that Un- cle Bill was all wool and a yard wide. I wish you'd brought him wn with you—no, I do not. I don’t want him around cramping my style. . . . Din- ner’s ready. That stout saddle-colored female who appeared in the door just now says we'd better come and get it or she'll throw it out.” “I must run to my room for & hand- kerchief; I forgot to fetch one,” said Roberta, and ran up stairs. Don Jaime gazed after her. There was no doubt but that he approved of her mightily. When his gaze shifted, it met Mrs. Ganby's. “How does she impress you?” she queried. Mrs. Ganby had a brimming measure of feminine curiosity. “Miss Antrim is physically beautiful and mentally alert. Yes, she's as smart a young woman as you-and I will ever meet. Well raised, well spoiled, haughty, aware of her power over men and just loves to use it. Sound at heart, though, I think. Nothing spurious about her!" “I think she has a temper.” “Of course she has. If she didn't, she'd be dull. But I do not think she holds grouches, for her sense of humor would preclude that. And she's too healthy, too normal, to be a picky woman. After hanging a mouse on her enemy’s eye she’d run to the drug store 0 buy a leech to put on it. I like her. She lights up my old house.” “Will she be here long, Don Jaime?” “I do not know. In all probability she will not be®here long enough to please me. In fact, if I hadn't run that Blll Dingle scalawag down the road, she | wouldn't be here now. She’s a new note |in life to me, but I'm not going to let | her know she is.” He looked at his housekeeper seriously. “Do you realize, Mrs. Ganby, what a serious thing it is to have killed a sheepman that wanted killing, only to discover he has a niece that can set a man's reason tottering on its throne?” i Mrs. Ganby was amused at his frank- ness, “Has Miss Antrim set your rea- son_tottering on its throne llmdg?" “No. I do not totter that ly— CULTURISTE A NEW B YOUTHFUL ESSENTIAL TREATMENT $4.50 PACIFIC COAST CANNERS INC.- . - Y ENHANCE AND MAINTAIN A QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY.
