The heart of Mary, the waitress, chambermald and occa- sionally clerk in the General Mer- chandise Store, was full. She had to talk. She would have talked to the wall had not the Chinese cook been ‘there. “'He's about that tall,” saM Mary, reaching hi ahove her head | “He's about that broad. Why, he'd flll that door plumb full.

As for Harry Gloster, he paysed at the front of the building to laugh at two sweating boys who, in the middle of a great dust cioud, were attempting to drive back & Pig had broken through the fence on the farther ride of the street, Then he entered the hotel and went into the dining room.
