I can't do anything more about it. Good night." Ile stamped out angrily, but in- tardly was elated. I,ande would get men together all right. They would ride to the valley. "l.a sdc7l post men when he gets to the fire at the I•'ringle place," he mused. "And since 121 Caballetto Rojo will probably come there too, And he'll find himself under the guns of the late." As well as his plans seemed to be working, however, now that he had successfully Set them in motion, Bar- tle was uneasy when he got back to the hank, prepared to spend the night there, For he knew that until he looked upon 1~l Caballero Rojo's dead body he would trot feel safe again. * * 1Yheti he did know the outlaw s dead, then he could continue operation;. He would bring set- tlers in at top I.rices; drive tltent out at bottom prices; hide behind a curtain of wrath, and keep sus- picion pointing at cattlemen. "It can't fail," he thought "That outlaw now is the only stumbling block. But now everybody is help- ing use to get rid of him. Clark 'Weber is hunting him. Lande will have oleo watching for hint. Has - kr 11 has sworn he will drill hits on sight. Aud I'll see to it myself 'that every tobacco farmer in the valley is posted to watch for him. He can't escape for long."

He'll be here tomorrow to plead for time. I'll cry on his shoulder and tell him how sorry I am, but that I must have the money. I'll give hint sixty days. Handled right, I ought to convince him it's best for him to sell out instead of going deeper into debt for a new shed while ice raises another crop. The thing to do—" * * He reached for a small file box. It contained the names and ad- dresses of people all over the coun- try who were interested in buying farms in the West.

I am looking forward to a complete analysis of my hand- writing. * * a Sincerity is the basis of your handwriting and this is the promin- ent factor throughout your script, It is evident, therefore, that you are an idealist, with deep feeling for all things reverent. Nobility of thought and action is indicated by all the high reaching stein letters '1' and 't' and this is another indication of sincerity of purpose.

This is not to be interpreted as fear, but as an absence of n ' c g6'a'es sry Hess. I say 'fear' because the openings of all tale lettct;, `d' show that you wish to be frank with others and others to be frank with you even though it may be to your personal disad- vantage at the time. Thoughts about physical devel- opment are shown in the small let- ters Independence is part of your makeup and you are capable of making decisions and of self-reli- ance. There is evidence too of sen- sitiveness partly controlling inde- pendence. * * 0 Although there is ambition to rho many things, there is also a supres- sion of desire shown, and this was uppermost in your mind at the time of writing. Apparently there is one thing which you wish above all others and this wish is being held in check either through des- pondency or personal pride. The suppression of desire and the slight despondency are not a permanent part of your personality although they were an expression of feeling at the time of writing, Anyone !visiting a more complete analysis please send self-addressed stamped tevelope to Box B, room 421, 73 Adelaide St. West, Toronto.
