But the girl's reverie was cut short by a sudden aifectionate licking of leer fingers, and .glancing downward she found larownee, adopted early in her visit at the Elden's, expressing. its fondness in the only fashion at -ib conamanel. The call lued been an incident in her ranch experience. It was a late Gamer, quite unable toekeep pace -with the earlier fruits of the herd, and,had the additional misfortune to be born of an ambitious mother, who had no thought of allowing her domestic du- ties to impair her social relationships with the matrons. and, males of her immedieth set. She had no place for old-fashioned notions; she was deter- mined"to keep up with the herd, and the calf might fare as best it could. So they eambled from day, to daY, she swaggerieg• along with the set, but turning mow, and then to send an impatient moo toward the small brown body stuck On four long un- gainly legs—legs whichelad an unfor- tunate habit of folding up, after the fashion of a jaelt-laiife, upon unfore- seep occasions, and precipitating the owner he a huddled mese on the ground. At rare times, when heaven must have stooped close above the herd, the mother instinct weuld aesert itself, and the cow would return to her offspring, licking it lavishly and encouraging it with, innoings of deep affectior, .but suele naiads, of bliss were of short duration. The lure of "the life" was too great for her; she aelt herself horn for more important roles thaw mere motherhood, and she would' presently „rush away to her favorite eirde, leaving her begotten to such fates as might befall. • It was on such an occasion, when left far behind, that one of the un- gainly MO found its way into a badger hole. The collapse was harder and more cortiplete than usual, and the ljttle sufferer would have died there had he not .been found by Dave nd Irene in the course of their rides. Dave, after a monient's examination, elae-w his revolver, but Irene pled for the life of the unfortunate. "Oh, don't kill it, Dave," she cried. "You coulnn't kill it! Let's get the wagon and take it home. It'll get all right, won't it?" "Never be worth a—" said Dave, checking his -vocabulary in ,the nick of time. "Once, they begin to give troeble you might's well knock 'ena on the head." "But it's•cruel," she protested. "Just to kill it because It's hurt." "I don't know about the cruel," he answered.

"All right," said Dave, "on aecoient of your sweater. That'll sort o' show the connection." So thie night she rubbed its nose, and scratehed its forehead, and then reproved its affection, which had a habit of, running to extremes, And the Mother cow mooed from the cor- ral, and 33roevnie forgot his bene- factress and ambled away at the eall of the blood. • "Well, you youngsters must have this country pretty well explored," said Dr. Haedy, as they metered the house.

The following morning found Dave early on the trail 'leading a saddled horse by his side. The hours were leaden fm the .girl all that day, and looking into the future she saw the spectre of her life shadowed down the years by an unutterable loneliness. How could she ever drop it all—ell this 'wild freedom, tide boundless health, this great outdoors, this life, how could she drop it all and go back into the little circle where -convention fenced out the tiniest alien streamlet, although the circle itself might lie deep in mire? And how would she give up this boy who, had grown so imperceptibly but no intimately into the very soul of her being; give him up with all his strength, and virility, and—yes,. and coarsenesa, if you will —but sincerity too; an essential man, as Codernacle him, in exchange for a maehine-neade counterfeit with the stamp of Society'? Deeply did ,she ponder these questione, and as the day wore on she found herself posses- sed of a steadily growing determina- tion `that she would mit follow the beaten 'trail; let, the by-paths lead where they might. ' Darknees,. save for, white moon, had settled over the foothills when the boy returned with. another young man. The stranger ate . a ravenous supper, but was not too occupied to essay conversation with Irene. Indeed, from their meeting at the cleorwaY his e'yes scarcely left her. He chose to call her cook.

Ile voiced these remarks with an air of intense self -approval more offensive than the words. Irene felt the color rise about her neck and cheeles. and rue like an over- flowing stream intother ears and about her hair. It was evident that; fOr a second time, Dave had .chosen to say nothing. to strangers about her pres- ence at the ranch: But that was' not what brought the color.

Her fathee and Mr. Elden were in Dave's room; Dave had, stopped eating, ainl she saw the veins rising in his clench- ed fits. 'But the challenge was to her, and she would -accept it; she felt no need of his protection. "Fill your stomach," she said, pass- ing neore pancakes; ‘"your head is hopelese." He attempted a laugh, but the meal was finished in silence. The stranger lit a cigarette, and Irene went to ,the dost with Dave, An over -lace of sil- ver moonlight chaped the familiar objects near at hand and faded into the duke vague lingerie of night where the spruce trees Cut thei/' black . wedge along the valley.• "Come fo; a walk," lm ivhispered.

Is there such a thing as being able to see the sunliefore it has 'risen? Theie is; tio if ever you see jt ap- pearing on the horizon •early in the morning, .you may be certain that it has not appeared at 11, but that it is still just 0 little way below the sky- line. The explanation lies in the fact that before the sun'e light reaches your eyes it is bent upward by the atmos- phere through which it pasSeso • This bending, at the horizon, is just about equal to .the sun'sebreadth. It follevis, therefore, that when the sun is on the point of rising, its light is cnrvecl round to nieet the eye, and th the eye, coesequently,'"it seems as if the sun were actually resting on the horizon, instead of really 'being invis- ible just below that point. The bending of the light comin,g &Teat from an object varies accord- ing to the density, of the atniosphere; the denser the atinosphere the greater the amount of bending. It also varies with the position of the object; it is greatest at the hori- zon, and it gradually decreases the higher the object it situated, 'Until this bending et the light (known ae refrac- floe has) disappeared altogether by the time the object is overhead.
