Two great boulders lay ‘edge to edge beside the path. Through a narrow rift the blue nose of a forty-five pro- truded.

Doble had heard the story of what Dave and Bob had done for Craw- ford and of how the wounded boy had beepn taken to the cattleman's home and nursed there. “Sunders he gets a pair of éighteen dollar hoots, then jumps the town hefore T find out about it."

He was 4 gos- slpy soul, and more than once his tongue had got him, into trouble. “They been quarrélin’ a good deal together. 1 expect tHe combination is about ready to bust up,” he whis- pered confidentially. “Quarrelin’'?. What about “On, I dunno. They act like they're sore as a boil at each other. Honest, I thought they was goin' to mix it yesterday. 1 breezed up wit' a bot- tle an’' they kinda cooled off.” Dave did not care how much they quarreled or how sqon they parted arter he had got back his horse. Until that time he preferred that they would give him only one trail to follow instead of two. Later In the evening he met Henry West. “Say, Mr. West, if I find a hawss that's been stole from me, how can 1 get it back?" “Someone steal a hawss from you?" Dave told his story. West listened to a finish. “1 know a lawyer here. We'll ask ‘him what to do,” the ranchman said. They found the lawyer at the Ath- letic ‘club. West stated the case. “Your remedy is to replevin. If tiiey fight, you'll have to bring wit- nesses to prove ownership."” “Bring wlitnesses from Malapi! Why, I can't do that” says Dave, staggered. “I ain't got the money. Why can't I just take the hawss? It's mine."” . “The law doesn’t know it's yours.” Dave left much = depressed. of course the thieves would go to a law- ver, and of course he would tell them to fight The law was a darned queer thing. It made the recor®ry of his property so costly that the crooks who stole it could laugh at him, The way to recover flashed to his brain like a wave of light. He must get possession. All he had to do was to steal his own horse and make for the hills. If the thieves found him later—and the chances were that they would” not even attempt pursuit if he let them know who he was—he would force them to the expense of going to law for Chiquito, What was sauce for the goose must be for the gander, too. Dave's tramp had carried him across the Platte into North Denver. On his way back he passed a corral ciose to the raiiroad tracks. He turned in to look over the horses. The first one his eyes fell on was Chiquito. (Continued in” Our Next Issue). the at B.

C., Feb, 2.—Although this little town about a century and a half ago, was the rendezvous of one of the world's most daring and fam- ous gang of crooks—Edward Teach (Bluebeard) and his band—it s to- day one cominunity which the recent crime wave has not reached. There has not been an arrest here in more than ten years and the crimes of rob- bery, burgary, theft and murdep are absolutely unknown to the population insofar as they refer to Ocracoke. John Oneal, after holding office as justice *of the peace at Ocracoke for eight years, resigned a year or more ‘'ago, not having had a criminal case during his administration. A sue- ceasor has never been clected. Mr, Oneal, who was born at Ocracoke, says the worst crime he can recall to have occurred at Ocracoke in 50 years were one of assault and battery. There are only one or two homes here that have locks on the doors and the keys to those that are thus cquipped are never used. Most of the houses at Ocracoke were wholly or partially constructed with lumber of ships which were wrecked on the treacherous shoals off the North Carolina coast. Every family here own their home. Ocracoke is at the extreme south- ern end of a little island by the same name, located about 30 miles off the mainland of North Carolina, and is unique in many respects. Ocracoke island, which is part of Hyde county, North Carolina, is a little strip of land about 11 miles long and ranges in width from one half to one and a half miles. The population of the {s- land numbers about 700, about 650 of whom live at Ocracoke. Those who do not live in the little town are members of the families of coast guardsmen, who patrol the coast. As there are no railroads, automo- biles, street cars, or theaters where motion pictures are shown, many of the inhabitants at Ocracoke have never seen any of these things. With the exception of the men employed by the United States government as coast guardsmen and the few mer- chants in the little town, all Ocra- cokers make their living hunting and tishing. i Every person on Ocracoke isiand is Home-made Remedy Stops Coughs Quickly The best cough medicine you ever used. A family supply essily and quickly made.

Usu- ally stops the ordinary cough or chest cold in 24 hours. Tastes pleasant, too— children like it—and it is pure and good. Pour 2% ounces of Pinex in a pint bottle; then fill it up with plain granu. lated sugar syrup. Or use clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup, if desired. Thus you make a full pint—a family sipply—but costing . no more than a small bottle of ready-made cough syrup. And as a cough medicine, there is really nothing better to be had at any price. It goes right to the spot and ives quick, lasting relief. It promptly fionls the inflamed membrancs that line the throat and air passages, stops the annoying throat tickle, loosens the phlegm, and scon vour cough stops en- tirely.
