Lanya did notspeak but calmly1 Y and efficiently bared the wound. SI•e brought medicine and clean bandages from her saddle bag. She worked for a long time. Phil had wakened; he watched her with dull eyes. "The nearest doctor is at Fort Winfield," Lanya said to Virginia. Then: "We'll have to take him there." "If I should go for him-" Vir- ginia suggested. Lanya said simply, "He's an army doctor. He couldn't come here." Phil's voice came from far off. "Not to Fort Winfield," he said. I'll go to my camp in the Silver Range. Hank Muldane is there. He can treat my wound." Lanya turned to Virginia. "That's best," she whispered. "Barron will trend his men. They may be on the way. I'll go with Phil." "And 1 too," Virginia replied, "I shan't leave him." "Well, we shan't quarrel now," the dance hall girl said flatly. They rode north across the des- ert, then into the jagged rock wastes of the Silver Ridge. It took hours, walking their horses because of Phil's condition, He kept to the' saddle by sheer wilt power, leading them somehow along the hidden trail through deep dark gorges, along wider canyons, and over sheer rock hills. 1 was midnight when they came to the cabin in a small hidden valley. The cabin was dark until Vir- ginia found and lighted a lantern. They helped Phil to a bunk, and he lay back and instantly fell asleep. Lanya bent over him, watchful and troubled. After a time, Phil asked for water. Virginia could find none in the room. She took up a bucket and stepped from the cabin. There was a stream 100 feet through the darkness. She had dipped the bucket and was turning with it when a shadow moved beside her. She glanced to- ward it, startled. She saw a dusky, unclad figure. Then another. Apaches. They glided silently to- ward her. Her arms were -ized roughly and twisted behind her. The bucket dropped, and she felt the cool water pour over her feet. Ter- ror swept over her. She screamed. She tried to struggle, but savage hands forced her along into the darkness, She twisted about and saw the lighted doorway, a glimpse. of Lanya's slim person. She called the girl's name. She heard Lanya cry out -and that was all. She was pushed and dragged through brush which stung at her face and hands and tore at her dress. She struggled frantically in terror, but uselessly. She had a ofcaptors. His of n hera glimpse one g PP face was wickedly scarred. It was the Apache whom Steve Barron knew. CHAPTER XI It was the third night when Vir- ginia was pulled from her horse and was half dragged, half carried into the Apache village. Her first aware- ness of the camp was the sudden racket of the Indian dogs that rushed at her and her two captors. Her mind felt drugged, and an al- most impenetrable haze pulsated before her aching eyes. The dogs roused the camp. Small, wiry warriors carne from the brush - covered huts. Squat and dusky women followed, and then came the naked children. Bedlam rose. She was swept through the crowd to a hut and roughly shoved inside. She sank down upon a dirty blan- ket and lay in a heap. Her body ached; she was battered and bruised. Her mind was stupified. She closed her eyes. A gradual sense of calm stole over her. When she opened her eyes again, sunlight slanted in through cracks in the wall of the hut. She lay still, afraid to move -afraid of what her awakening would bring. Weakness still had a hold on her, and the pain had not gone 'out of her body. But her mind was alert and wary. She had been seized and dragged away from the cabin where Lanya and she had taken Phil. One of the two Apaches had brought her horse, and she was forced to mount and ride between the two silent men. They had not harmed her; it had been the ride that had beaten her. She lay there wondering what it meant; asking herself uselessly why she had been brought to this Indian camp. It occurred to her that per- haps there lay a plan behind her capture. She knew that one of her captors was the Indian Steve Bar- ron had spoken to the day they had met Phil Lawrence. The same In- dian who had watched Jim Randall and her that night outside of Santa Bonita. :1 nutinnerl riex1 Week t1,ROSSWOl;ll,l'-y PUZZLE ACROSS 4. Crystal gazer 1. Demons 5, Red dye 6.

It's a tip on how to save your neck, told by a farm safety specialist. It was a beautiful day as Frank drove off the highway toward the Johnson farm. He was thinking of the corn crop. It had been a good year for corn. A few dry spells, maybe, but his own corn didn't seem to be hurt much. The corn borer had caused dam- age, too. But he had sprayed, He wouldn't lose too much, Good soybeans, too. Thus Frank mused as he sped along. "Hope I'll be at the Johnson farm before the auction sale starts," he thought. That glade him glance at the speedometer. "My, I'm doing fifty on a country road Oh, well, it's a good road and there are no cars coming." Just then Frank noticed that he was comingcross-roads. to a os s -r oade. "That corn is so high, I couldn't see a car coming. Of course, there isn't one. Oh, well, 1'11 just pre- tend there is and slow down." As Frank slowed his car and cane to the cross-roads, another car whizzed across in front of him, "Why, the crazy fooll He must be doing at least fifty," Frank ex- claimed. Then, with a sickening feeling, Frank remembered the speed he had been travelling. In his mind, he saw the mess of which he would have been a pant if he had not slowed down. No, there was no accident, but all the "makings" were there: A country cross-roads; high corn growing on the corners; two speed- ing cars. How can such accidents be pre- vented? Its easy if you stay safety - minded. The safety -minded farmer trims corn at the corners of his farm. The safety -minded driver slows down on country roads, and is al- ways ready to stop for crossing cars. • Service -100% Our supply company offers you steel wastebaskets and customers to match. -Fond du Lec Times, 4654 SIZES 6-14-16 td -18-20 5-40.42 Neat 'n' pretty and flirty-femi- ninel The practical coverall style apron is softened with scallops, ruffles, slanty little half -noon pockets.
