What I want to know is, can we have the loan of vour 'tent here for about an hour Sunday morning for the purpose of divine worship ?" Arkansas Grat set down his glass, made a sweeping gesture with his right hajid that included all that the tent contained. "Divine worsiiip ! Why, h 1, yes, Yancey," he replied, graciously. They went to work early Sunday. So as not to mar the numbers they covered the faro and roulette tables with twenty-two foot boards. Such of the prospective congregation as came early would use these for seats. There were, too, a few rude benches on which the players usually sat. The remainder must stand. The meeting was to b rom eleven to twelve. As early as nine o'clock they began to ar rive. They came from lonely cab ins, dugouts, tents. Ox carts, wag ons, buggies, horsemen, mule teams They were starving for company It wasn t religion they sought ; it was the stimulation that comes of meeting their kind in the mass They brought picnic baskets and boxes, prepared for a holiday. The town seemed alive with blan ketcd Indians. They squatted in the shade of the wooden shacks. They .walked in from their near-by reservations, or rode their mangy horses, or brought in their entire families squaw, papoose, two or three children of assorted sizes, dogs. Sabra, seeing them, told herself sternly that she must remember to have a Christian spirit, and they were all God's children; that these red men had been converted. She didn't believe a word of it. Rangers, storekeepers, settlers. Lean squatters with their bony wives and their bare-legged, rickety children, as untamed . as little wolves. Sabra superintended thc toilettes of her men folk from Yancey to Isaiah. Yancey chided her, laughing, "My good woman, do you realize that this is no way to titivate for the work of delivering the Word of God? Sackcloth and ashes is I believe, the prescribed costume." He poured and drank down three fingers of whisky, the third since breakfast. Cim cavorted excitedly in his best suit, with the bright plaid silk tie and the buttoned shoes, tasseled at thc top. The boy, Sabra thought as she dressed him, grew more and more like Yancey, except that he seemed to lack his father's driv ing force, his ebullience. Yancey's sure dramatic instinct bade him delay until he could make an effective entrance. A dozen times Sabra called to him, as he sat in the front office busy with paper and pencil. This was, she Ocided, his sole preparation for thc sermon he would be bound to deliver within the next hour. Later she found in the pocket, of his sweeping Prince Albert the piece of paper on which he had made notes. One word he had written on it, and then disguised it with meaningless marks but not quite Sabra, studying the paper after the events of thc morning, made out thc word "Yountis." . At last he was ready. Sabra ha put on, not her second-best black grosgrain, but her best, and the hat with thc plumes. She and Yancey stepped sedately down the street, with Cim's warm wriggling little fingers in her own clasp Sabra was a slimly elegant little figure in her modish black; Yan cey, as always, a dashing one. They went on their way. It oc curred neither to babra nor to Yancey that there was anything bizarre or even unusual in their thus proceeding, three welUdressec and reasonably conventional figure toward a gambling tent and saloon which, packed to suffocation with the worst and the best that a fron tier town has to offer, was for one short hour to become a House of God.

"What's everybody laughing at and pointing. to?" Cer tainly passers-by were acting strangely. Instinctively Sabra am Yancey turned to look behind them Down the street, perhaps fi'ft paces behind them, came Isaiah He was strutting in an absurd am vet unmistakably recognizable imi tation of Yancey's stride and swing Around his waist was wound a red calico sash, and over that hung a holstercd leather belt so large for his small waist that it hung to his knees and bumped against them at every step. Protruding from the Tancey Cravat in ludicrous in gro tesque miniature. He advanced to ward them with an appalling imi tation of Yancey's stride.

Yancey gave a great J4 4tc KMS J25 roar of laughter, and at that Sa bra's blazing eyes turned from the ludicrous figure of the black 'boy to her husband. She was literally panting with fury.
