Barry es- capes, however, and meets an old mart named Timberline, who is also gunning for the Laredo Kid. After several years of searching, Barry returns to Judge Blue's house, where he meets a man called Tone Haveril whom he accuses of being his cousin, Jesse, in dis- guise. Barry becomes convinced of this later and they have a gun (tattle, both getting hurt. Recover- ed, Barry discovers Tom Haveril has married Lucy, whom he loves. Barry kidnaps Lucy, and proves to her that she is not Judge Blue's daughter, but a wealthy heiress, whose parents were slain when she was a small child.

However, the posse is still gunning for Barry. Stealthily re- turning to their gold mine, Barry and Timberline get the drop on the men who are after them, and Barry tells them the truth about Judge Blue. CHAPTER XXIXX "Papers?" said . the men among themselves, Someone called out, "You go see, Bendigo; you can read like a lawyer." Bendigo read and Barry explain ed. Bendigo scratched his head and said,. "It looks like to Barry called out the frill explana- tion to the men down below. He ended by saying: "You fe11o'vs that worked for Tom Haveril, you know I'm telling you the truth. Sarboe has told us what he knows, and it's plenty! You're all ripe for•hanging to the first tree. The Laredo Kid is still riding free, sticking close to the Judge because either of 'em can hang the other, and they're afraid to separate! Want to stick along with them? Then fill your hands! Come a -shooting, or get out of here!" "That's teachin"'em their ABC's, T reckon," said Ben Haveril. Just then two men came roaring into camp, headed from down - canyon, lashing their jaded, sweat - lathered horses. They were the sheriff, Ed Brawley, "his face sick - white, his shoulder red, blood drip- ping from his fingertips, and the old man, Cliff Bendiger. He collapsed and slid to the ground. Barry went to where Brawley lay. The Sheriff muttered weakly: "It was the Kid. I didn't know who he was! The Judge says, 'Meet a friend of mine, Jesse Conroy, a cowboy worlcin' for me.' If I'd only knowed! He shot fas', after Tim- ber done his talking'; shot an' rode away on his emirs, laughin' his head off!" "Anel Timberline?" asked Bar'r'y anxiously. "Shot him, too," muttered Braw- ley. "But why—" Brawley said, still more faintly: "Reckon he was sorry he spilled the beans. You see+, he.. let out where your women folk was. And he knowed that therm two, the Kid anyhow, was headed straight to get his hands on them females." "Good God!" gasped Barry. Then he ran for a horse+. It was in a never -to -be -forgotten early dusk that Judge Blue and the Laredo Kid rode auto the yard of the old Ben Haveril home. Barry's mother and the two Lu- c•ys ran to the door, all eagerness. Already the Laredo Kid was stand- ing on the porch, his hard brown hands on his narrow hips. The Judge called over the Kid's shoulder with an affectation of heartiness: - Murder In His Eyes - "ITello, Lucy, my darling. How- dy, Mrs. }Tavern. Howdy, Miss Lucy." As the three women flinched back the Laredo hid laughed.' "Make a move that ain't hospit- able -like," grinned the Kid, "an' I'll slap yore scared faces ofl" n ynh.' Barry's mother stood in the door- way; at a commanding glance from her the two girls retreated into the house and stood looking fearfully over her shoulders. She said in that low, quiet voice of heats: "What do you tivaut here?" "A -plenty," said the Kid. "I'm gitt.iu' out•'n here an' Pm goin' fas'. but I ain't goin' alone," he said, His eyes paunecd.

He said again to the terrified girl, "Yule eomin' with me," "No!" she cried, "I—" That quiet little woman, Barry's mother, became like a she -wolf pro- tecting her cubs. InerediblY swift, she leaped for the old rifle 'stand- ing' against the wall, dead. Robert's gun where site had placed it when thinking that'. Barry might want It, The Kid's gun came up out of he holster in a. gesture too quick for the eye to follow. He touched the trigger gently, that devil's grin still on his face; there was the roar of explosion, the flash of orange fire, and the rifle clattered to the floor. He had very adroitly shot the woman through the right forearm. The Judge burst out explosively, though he made no gesture toward his own gun: "Look here, Laredo! This sort of thing—" Laredo whirled and all without warning 'fired a second shot. and the Judge clutched his abdonicen, The Judge's gun was still in its holster; he had no strength to drag • it forth. He had lurched toward Barry's sister. InstinetivelY she made a swift movement toward it. Why Laredo did not shoot her is not to be known. Perhaps he had a thought to saving ammunition: perhaps the easiest thing was what he clid. As she stooped, he struck her brutually with the barrel of the gun in his hand, and little blue- eyed Lucy dropped mercifully un- conscious across the Judge's legs. "C o m in' along peaceful -like now?" asked the Kid 'of the other Lucy, standing and grinning at her, spinning his gun about upon e. forefinger through its trigger guard, "Say yes in a hurry,. an' I won't hurt no more o' yore frien's.

Does it mean that women are mere cold-blooded than men? Partly, yes, according to Dr. C. I'. Yaglou, Associate Professor at. Han!vard School of Public Health, Under the same ordinary condi- tions --- .temperature of room 71 deg. F. and 30 per cent. humidity —the surface or skin tempera- ture of women is about two de- grees lower than that of men. During killing weather in the sunnier,. men are more affected than women, the ladies being quite content with ordinary room temperature. But few office buildings or homes in America are at 70 deg. F. in cold weather. They are closer to 80 deg. or 85 deg., and the humidity is closer to 10 than 30. CLOTHES MAKE DIFFERENCE The chief difference which causes the male and female reac- tion to this is clothes. The Ameri- can male dons, about November 1st, clothes, the weight and con- sistency of which would keep him comfortable out of doors at the North Pole. The American fe- male changes the weight of her house clothes hardly at all, winter or summer. Doctor Yaglou found that a group of women wearing their own winter clothes were shivery and uncomfortable in a room of 70 deg. but became perfectly comfortable when they dressed in men's ordinary winter clothes.

CHAMBERS A Soup Discussion This week 1 have had two re- quests for my method of making tomato soup. Maybe I have ne- glected this topic for we all do use is certain amount of canned soup. However, always remem- ber that whenever possible, soup should be made up specially, if we are watching closely the budget line. Cream of Tomato Soup Strain canned t o m. a toe s; place on heat and bring to boil. Season with pepper and salt and a little sugar. (I am not giving the amounts for all tastes for seasoning are different). Melt butter (in measurements it should be 1 level tablespoon to each cup of tomatoes). To the melted butter add a tablespoon oi' flour (and 1 tablespoon but- ter). Blend carefully and add to the tomatoes, as it reaches the boiling point, the butter and flour mixture. Stir constantly • until it thickens, then allow to cook on slow heat until no taste of starch remains. Now add a pinch of soda. Stir until effervescing lessens, then add the milk, which has been heated but not boiled. Stir well and serve when real hot but try to avoid boiling. Cream of Corn Soup 1 medium sized onion 1 can corn 3 cups water 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons flour 1 teaspoon salt teaspoon pepper 3 cups milk Finely chopped parsley Paprika Combine the chopped onion, corn and water. Cover and cook gently for 30 minutes. Press through a coarse sieve. Melt but- ter and blend in the flour, salt and pepper. Stir and cook until thick. Add the corn mixture and reheat well. Sprinkle each serv- ing with chopped parsley and paprika. Six servings. Cream of Carrot and Pea Soup 1 CUI) sliced carrots ' 1 cup canned Peas 1 thick sliced onion 2 cups boiling water 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons flour 3 cups milk 1. teaspoon salt teaspoon pepper Combine the carrots and on- ion with the boiling water and cook for ten minutes covered. Add the peas and zook for five minutes. Press all through a siert. Melt the butter and beat in flour. Add milk and carrot mixture. Cook stirring constant- ly until thick. Season to taste. Reserve a few slices of carrots and peas for garnish. n, Always remember that the water in which you have cook- ed your vegetables should never be thrown away ---- it is a splen- did foundation for creamed soups. Then with milk soups the homemaker has a splendid oppor- tunity to vary the milk budget. Remember each adult should have one pint of milk a day and each child one quart.
