Wonder if they did. to the pass the younger man had One of 'em a big fat guy name o' disappeared. Miller kinda rolls when he walks. The I) Bar Lazy foreman found out at once .what become of him. , A crisp voice gave clear directions. "Tharll be far enough, atop riht where you're at or you'jl no tice trouble pop." The words came, it seemed to Poble, out of the air. He looked up. Two great boulders lay edire. to rclge be-ide the path. Through a narrow rift the blue now of n forty-live protruded. Dark cf it Klittered a pair of steudy, steely eyes. "Come outu there and shell out that eighteen dollars," demand 'd Doble. "Nothin doin', Dug." Suddenly Doble gave up. Ho wheeled his horse and began to de aeend the strep slope. His soul ws 'filled with chagrin and fury at t hv defeat this htriUntf 1ih1 iri vt-n him. Later in the day the fori man met the owner of the I Bar I.:izy K brand. "That young scalawag Sanden beat yuu ouia eighteen dollars," lie said, with a sneer of triumph. Doble hail heard the story of ; what Dave and Bob had done for t.rawiord ami of how the woundei! boy had been taken to the cattle man's hru nnd nursed there. "Sunders he gets a pair of rightei-n-dollar boots, then jump the town before I find out about it." Crawford started to sie;;k, but Doble finished his story, i "Funny he didn't tell vou I gave him the boots." "You-whut?" The fon-nvm snapped the (lutslion out with angry incredulity. The foreman wa3 furious. But some instinct warned him that ui 1 . II kff vz Jt mi "I'M THE MAN YOU'RE LOOKING FOR, MR. WEST." Other's small and has a glass eye.

They look to yours truly like--" I The bartender pulled himself up 1 short and began polishing the top I of the bar vigorously. He was a gossipy soul, and more than once his tongue had got him into trou ble. "They leen quurrelin' a good deal together. I expect the com bination is about ready to bust up," wispered confidentially. "Quarrelin'? What about?" "Oh, I dunno. They act like they're sore as a boil at each oth er. Honest. I thought thev was Da ve ' Zanders, rangro rider on the D. Bar Lazy R outfit, and hit Bob Hart, are in hot pursuit of a ' gambler, Ad Miller, and his confederate Geo. Doble, who has stolen Sanders' pet pony, Chiquito. In response to an appeal from Joyce Crawford, they rescue her father, Emerson Crawford, owner of the ' D. Bar Lazy R ranch, who has been captured by his enemy, Bradley Steclman, a rival ranch owner. Bob and Dave resume the hunt for the horse thievc3. , CHAPTER IX ' ' The pursuit took the riders ecross a wide, undulating plain above which danced the dry heat of desert. Lizards sunned themselves on flat rocks. A rattlesnake slid toward the cover of a prickly pear. The bleached bones of a cow shone white beside t he trail. "No use, Bob," said Dave, while they were cooking supper. "They've made their getaway. Might as well drift back to Malapi, don't you reckon?" At the Defmonico restaurant they found Bucy Bylngton and Steve Russell. The trail herd had been driven in an hour before. "Dug's payin' off today, boys," Russell told them. "You'll find him round to the Boston Empor ium." The foreman settled first with Kart, after which he turned to the page in his pocket notebook that held the account of Sanders. He stopped to look down sar castically at the new boots San- tnot nu'.AK aiiuiaicv' ders was wearing. "I see you ve bought you a new pair of boots," he said in a heavy domineering voice. The big fellow laid a paper on the breast of the cowpunchcr. "Here's a bill for a pair of boots ycu charged to the old man a ac count eighteen dollars. I got it just now at the store. You'll dig up." -k It wa he custom for riders who came to town to have the supplie3 they needed charged to the the!r employers against wages due them. Doble took it for granted that Sanders had done this, which was contrary to the orders he had giv en his outfit. Ho did not know th young man had lost his hoots while rescuing Crawford and had been authorized by him to get another paif in place of them. Nor did Dave intend to tell him. Here was a chance to even the score against the foreman. "See you later!" he shouted, and leaped into his saddle. The foreman wasted no breath in futile rage. He strode to the nearest hitching-post and his horse's hoofs pounded down the road in pursait. Sanders was riding the same bronco he had used to follow the horsethieves. It had been under a saddle most of the time for a week and was far from fresh. Before he had gone a mile he knew the foreman would catch up with him. He was riding for Gunsight Pass. It was necessary to get there be fore Doble reached him.. Other wise he would have to surrender or fight, and neither of these fittad in with hi3 plans. km, ,ie ... nil io oreaK wun t raw- , ,. to mjx jt vesterday. j bneJ!. ii.iu ""'"-If ne ifiu;h restrain cd UD W f a bott p an' thov ltinrfa cooieti on. ' Dave did his impuixe to rip loose. Chapter X Dave stood on the fence of ona of the shipping pens of the Al buquerque stockyards and used a prod-pole to guide the bawline cattle below. The Fifty-Four Quar ter Circle was loading a train of beet steers and cows .for Denver not care how much they quarreled or how soon they parted after no had got back his horse. Until that time he pre ferred that they would give him only one trail tt follow instead of two. Later in the evening he met Henry B. West. "Say, Mr. West, if I find a haws Just how he was gting to manage tended to be eboaH that freiirht i',at? ! ep.n 8.toj from me, how can when it pulled out for the mile- l 1K , . high town in Colorado. . ;mc one steal a hawss from A ml, 1,11.. ! . ...:l.t..

"We'd ought to be movin' by noon, Mr. West." "Fine. I've decided to send Gar rison in charge. If J knew where to find a good man" The lean Arizona-born vonth slid from the fence. "I'm the man you're lookin' for, Mr. West." An hour later he was in the ca boose of a cattle train rolling east ward. He was second in csm mand of a shipment consigned to the Denver Terminal Stockyards Company. The stars were out long before Dave's train drew into the suburbs of Denver. It crawled intermin ably through aqualid residence sections, warehouses, and small manufactories, coming to a halt at last in a wilderness of tracks on the border of a small, narrow stream flowing sluggishly between wide banks cut in the clay. CHAPTER XI Dave knew he was stubborn. Not many men would have come on such a wild-goose chase to Denver in the hope of getting back a favorite horse worth so little in actual cash. But he meant to move his end intelligently. ' If Miller and Doble were in the city they would be hanging out at some saloon or gambling-house. His knowledge of their habits took him to that part of town be low Lawrence Street. While he chatted with hi3 foot on the rail; a glass of beer in front of him, he made inconspicuous inquiries of bartenders. It did not take him long to strike the traiL "Two fellows I knew in the cat- One third of your life is allotted to sleep. Do you get youY share?

One of the causes of insomnia is nerve-irritation from tea and coffee drinking. Tea and . coffee both contain caffeine, which has ; 6 tendency to cause ' undue stimulation. The irritating effect of caffeine often 1 results in insomnia, depression, and a Weakened nervous system. You can easily overcome these troubles by drinking Postum instead of tea or coffee. Postum is a delicious, satisfying cereal beverage, and it is absolutely free from caffeine, or any other harmful substance. Ask your grocer for Postum.

They found the lawvor at the Athletic Club. West stated the case. "Your remedy is to replevin. If they fight, you'll have to bring witnesses to prove ownership." 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 denreased. Of course the thieves would go to a lawyer, ana oi course he .would tell them ta fight. The law was a darned queer thing, It made the recovrry of his property so costly that the crooks who stojje it couH laugh at him. The way to recqver flashed to hi3 brain like a wave of light. He must get possesion. 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 at tempt putsuit if he let them know who he was he would force thorn to the expense of going to law for tniquito. v hat was sauce for the goose must be for the gander, too. Dave's tramo had carried him across the Platte into North Den ver. On hi3 way oaek he passed a corral close to the railroad tracks. He turned in to look over the horses. The first one his eyes fell on was Chiquito. (Continued in Our Next Issue.) MEETING SYNOD PRESIDENTS P.ev. J. L.

They've tolling their fnendi about the weirdest honeymoon on record an enforced stay of months on a barren isle with wild beasts and one Kanaka servant as their only companions. Before her marriage Mrs. Meng went from Texaa, her home, for a visit in Honolulu. There she met Meng. They were married. Meng had bought an island in tho Palmyra group and thither they went for their honeymoon, taking along their native servant. They arranged in advance with a trading company to send a sup ply ship with food and comforts of civilization.

The two Salisbury lodges of the Knights of Pythias are contemp lating the installation of a large ar.d modern wireless telephone sta tion in their new quarters on the third floor of the Wright building now being erected on West Inness street and which the X. of P. will occupy when completed. The lodges hope to get in their new quarters by the first of April and in addi tion to the new lodge room will fit up ar.d maintain splendid club rooms, with games, shower baths and reading and writing rooms which will te open at all times for use of the members and visiting Knights. The two Salisbury lodges now have between 400 and 500 member? and tho membership is growing: fast. There are eight candidate? for the third rank next Monday night.

They searched the tidewaters for shellfish. They hunted the island groves for nuts and fruits. Soon their shosa wore oil t. They made primitive sandals from tiie hides of beasts. They supplanted their tattered clothing with improvised garments made from hides and leaves. In traditional fashion, they light ed a huge beacon on the crest of a hill in the hope o attracting a passing ship. At last a ship came. It was a United States navy vessel, sent to rescue them, after the government had learned of the trading com pany's inability to nend supplies.
