She has bought ,sightunseen, a ranch located thirty miles away. Barry Duane, her nearest neighbor, and: his man, Boone Petry, procure a reliable woman for her and in Barry's car, loaded down with supplies, they start across the desert. In Marston her reticence has aroused suspicion. Barry's chair went back with a rasp. "I'll be with you," he said brief- ly, and was close on Petry's heels as he went back to the corral. It was the same corral where Cornet had formerly been kept, and from which he had •whiskered a shrill welcome whenever Barry had approached. The sound came at that instant; as clear as a bugle call, "That's not Captain!" They exchanged a quick glance. There were only a dozen horses in the corral. Captain was there, close to a riderless horse. Without a word the two men ex- amined* him. Saddle and stirrups, ;glossy hide and dainty hoofs, they missed nothing in their quick search for evidence. 1 AGNES ' LOOMS PROVOST for rest , ered his checked ardor of the night Little by little, sheer weariness oxr- before, Anne wandered over toward ercame her. The rustling sounds of . Comet to avoid that new look in his the night lost their menace, and grew eyes, fainter and fainter. Anne slept. It was not a peaceful sleep. Now and then she stirred restlessly, tossed, sighed and lay still again, A vt..dce drifted down on the wind, calling, ""Anne! Anne." but she did not hear it, From somewhere in the distance came a faint crack' of sound, and from somewhere nearer by a single shot rang clear. The sharp sound brought her to her feet, stumbling with sleep and fatigue. Another sound was beating lightly and steadily against her ears. The click of a horse's hoofs on rock.Go- ing away from her! "Anne! Anne!" 'I'm coming! Barry!" She began to run, s lippin and slid- ing down the slope smooth with fall- en pine needles. forgetful of the im- petus of her own rush and the sheer - dropping ledge at the &te't. That was when Barry saw her. There were, after ail. to be more poignant momente in Barry Duane's life ,but none that could so shrink time into its racing seconds.

"That's a large order," he laughed. "My uncle was a collector 'of Indian rugs and things in a small 'way, and he picked tip the Spanish stuff, too," They went out, wandering over scented pine needles, down to the lake and up the slope again, answer- r'ng the mellow musk of a Chinese gong. Barry chuckled, "You've made an impression on Ling. Usually he just sticks his head, out of the door and yells Aleddy!' " (Continued Next Week) I'ts THE SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON MICATAH SPEARS THE TRUTH.

Martha could do nothing, unless she could catch and saddle ane of the old horses and find her way to. Eagle's Perch. A chill wind set the tree tops whis- pering. Anne shivered ,and began looking around for .a sheltered spot inwhich to spend the night. On her Taft, half -way up the slope, there was a dark block which looked "Of course.

That might have given him an op- eninb for light lore -making at least, curled Up into a snug ball,, Anything gave no suggestion that he reme nb- message he was to bring. Micaiah made a courageous answer: "As the Lord liveth, what the Lord saith unto me, that will I speak." The narrative is terse. "So he came to the King. And the King said unto him, Micaiah, shall we go against Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall we forebear?" Our brave prophet wabbled badly unusual for Barry. They turned their hat first, "Go and prosper," said he; "for the Lord shall deliver it into the hand of the King." But when the Ring pressed him for the whole truth and nothing but the truth, the prohpet came to his senses and took heart. "I saw all Israel scat- tered upon the hills, as sheep that horses and went back through the pass again. Presently Anne caught a sapphire gleam. "Oh, beautiful! ! Is that Eagle Lake?"
