I might tell you a great deal about Marthy Melkle, who plodded stolidly across the desert and the low-lying hills along the Blackfoot; and of her weak-souled, shiftiess hueband, whom she called Jase when she did not call him worse. They were the pioneers whore ing wagon first forded the verine stream. And thal night two of the oxen, impelled by a surer instinet than their human owners, strayed away down a narrow, wind Ing gorge, and #0 discovered the Cove, and feasted upon ita rich grasses, It was Marthy who went after them and who recognized the little, hidden Eden. Another = sturdy-souled couple came afterward and saw the Wol verine, and made for themselves a home upon tte banks, And fn the rough little log cabin was born the sirlehild I want you to meet; a giriehild when she should have been a boy to meet her father’s need and great desire; a girl-child whose very name w compro- mise between the parents, for they called her Billy for sake of the boy her father wanted, and Louise for the girl her mother had longed for to lighten that terrible loneliness which the far frontier brin to the women who brave its stern emptiness All thru her little girlhood Billy} Donald found her great est diversion the paying to her harab, unkempt neighbors.

It was getting late, and her horse, Rive, bad just rounded a sharp turn of the trail, when Billy Louise sud- denly caught her breath and her fin- gers slipped around the butt of the gun she always carried. She did not know this horseman, who sat negiigentiy in the saddle while bis horse stood knee-deep in the little stream. She did not know him; and there were not so many travelers in the land that strangers were @ matter of indifference.
