On the day of the Fourth he had stayed at home, tinkering up his ma- |chinery and had managed to cut his |hand very deeply. He had not taken ithe trouble to cleanse the cut thor joly. Now, on the third day, Mary | Hope had become frightened at the | discoloration of the wound and was jon the point of riding for a doctor |when her father cannily read her | mind and forbade her #o sternly that |she quatled before him. There was another thing, which she must do. She must take the | money she had gotten from the dance jand with it pay Tom Lorrigan for |the schoolhouse, or stop the school altogether. | Her mother advised her to keep |the money and buy another piano.

REID, President Above the “Palace Hip”—Empress Building, Second Avenue Corner 13th and Broadway, Tacoma—Labor Temple would not use the schoolhouse while it was a Lorrigan gift. So she set out with her money and her hurt pride and all her troubles, to pay the Devil's Tooth outfit for the schoolhouse — approximately, since she had only a vague {dea of the cost of the building—and then be quit of the Lorrigan patronage forever. She might as well have tried to pay for the Devil's Tooth ranch itself, She found ‘Tom at home, but as usual he had his own way in the matter, and Mary Hope left the ranch chagrined and hating its owner and all that pertained to him more |than ever, | Blindly fighting an hysterical tm- pulse to ery, she reined Jamie into the short-cut trail of the Slide. Mary Hope had traveled that trail many |tUumes on Rab, a few years ago, She had always entered the Slide with a Uttle thrill along her spine, knowing it for a place where Adventure might incet her face to face—where Danger lurked and might one day spring out at her, ‘Today she thought nothing about it until Jamie squatted and tried to whirl| back. Then she looked up and saw Adventure, Danger and Lance Lorrt gan just ahead, where the Slide was steepest. Lance pulled up his hired horse, his thoughts coming back with a jerk from the same diss able sub- Ject that had engrossed Mary Hope. The hired horse jumped, tried his best not to sit down, and paused wild-eyed, his hind feet slipping and scraping the rock. Jamie, finding that he could not turn around, was backing down the Slide, every step threatening to land |him in a heap. Mary Hope turned white, her eyes staring up at Lance ja little above her, In that instant they both remembered the short turn of the switch back and the sheer drop. | “Loosen the reins and spur him!" Lance's voice sounded hollow. | Mary Hope leaned obediently for | ward, the reins hanging loose. “He always backs up when he's scared,” she panted, when Jamie paid no at tention. | Instinctively Lance's hand felt for [his rope, On the livery saddle there did happen to be a poor sort of grass-rope riata, cheap and stiff and |clumsily coiled, but fortunately with | loop in the end. Lance flipped a kink out of the |rope. “Put up your hands—close to your head,” be commanded her. | "It's all right. Don't be afraid—it's jall right, girl—" | He shot the loop straight out and down at her, saw it settle over her head, slip over her elbows, ‘her shoulders. “It’s all right—can you | get offt”: She tried, but the space was too narrow. “Stay on—but be all ready to jump when he leaves the Slide. Don’t be afraid—it's all right.” He was edging | closer to the horse, holding the rope |taut in his right hand, As Lance came on, Jamie backed faster. Lance dared not crowd him, dared not reach for the bridle. So Jamie | came out of the Slide backwards, saw | with a sudden panic-stricken toss of his head that he had open daylight |all around him, whirled short and gave one headlong leap away from the place that had terrified him so. Lance jumped, reached for Mary Hope as the horse went over the bank. By the length of his hand he missed her, but the rope pulled her; free from Jamie, and she fell prone on the trail and lay still. “Are you hurt? Good God! are you hurt?” Lance gathered her in his arms and carried her to where the rock wall made a shady band across the steep slope. Mary Hope was very white, very limp, and her eyes were closed. He }sat down, still holding her like a child, and felt tentatively of her arms, shoulders, vaguely pre | pared to the crunch of a broken bone. ‘There was no water nearer than the ranch.

Girl—oh, you poor little girl!” He had been hating her, furious at Ithe insult she had given his family But he could not hate her now—not when she lay there in his arms. Very tenderly, with a whimsical pretense at self-pity, he upbraided her for the trouble she was giving bim. “You're not hurt; are you hurt? You'd better wake up and tell me, or I'll have to take you right up in my arms and carry you all the way |down to the house, and ride lixe heck for a doctor, and—" “Ye will not!” she retorted faintly, and moved uneasily. He lifted her| to the bank beside him and put one arm behind her, so that she leaned jagainst him. “Oh, very well—then T will not. | youl’ walk with me to the house, and we'll let Belle—" “T will not!

The Lorrigans shall not—" Lance laughed. over the schoolhouse right now—nor ‘Tom Lorrigan either,” he said, “Look at your horse down there. If you're all right, I'll go down and see how many bones he’s broken, You had a chance for a nasty pileup. Do you know that?” “I'm grateful,” said Mary Hope soberly. “But it was Lorrigan meanness brought me here; it was a Lorrigan got me into the trouble now, and a Lorrigan got mo out of it.

I can't! I—what do TI care how I get home? But if your father won't take the money— You don't know! The whole Rim talks and gossips until I wish I were dead! And I can’t go on using the school house—" She was crying at last, her face hidden behind her hands. “He'll take the money.” Lance) laid his hand lightly on her shoulder “I'll seo that dad takes it, And I'll) give you a bill of sale that ought to shut the Black Rim mouths.” Mary Hope heard him tearing a leaf out of his memorandum book, looked up at him while he wrote rap Without any comment what- he gave her the paper, and quickly set her own saddle hired horse, Mary Hope terse bill of sale that legal “Ten dollars and oth considerations,” and was signed “Thomas Lorrigan, per L. M. Lorri gan.” It all seemed very business. like, and heartened her so much that she was willing to be nice to Lance Lorrigan. But Lance remained strictly neutral. She gave him the money bag, which he took without any words whatever on the subject. He held the horse until she had mounted, made sure that she was all right, hilled by his perfect politeness her ervous overture toward a more friendly parting, lifted his hat and turned immediately to go down the Slide. . . . . . . Belle Lorrigan, with Lance beside her on the seat of the swaying buck board, swung thru the open gate of the Douglas yard and drove to the empty corral. In the doorway of the house, as they dashed past, the bent body of Mother Douglas ap peared. . From somewhere within the house the voice of Aleck Douglas rose sud denly in a highkeyed, vindictive chanting. The old man rushed drunkenly to the corral, shouting meaningless threats, After him went Mary Hope. “Oh, please do not pay any at tention to father! she cried, hurry ing to overtake him before he reached the buckboard. “He's out of his head with pain, and he will not have a doctor—Father!" Aleck Douglas was picking up 4 broken neck yoke for a weapon when Lance sprang out over a wheel and grappled with him. The old man's right arm was swollen to twice ity natural size and bandaged to his shoulder. “It's his arm makes him crazy,” FREDERI CK & NELSON FIFTH AVENUE AND PINE STREET DOWNSTAIRS STORE | Kalos Liliozone, an ef- fective hand-whitener —relieves roughness, dries in and will not soil the gloves, 50¢.
