So Dick manfully set t4 work to replace his lost fortune. It seemed too slow wort: to go to his mine and dig the gold he immediately required out of the ground, se he struck out for civilization to eel] some of his smaller claims, In the course of a mouth„ at the end of which his wan- derings brought him to Tucson, he had sold enough of his holdings to give him $3,000 ht ready Cash, As he was near the Sweetwater, he resolved not to exprt;ss the money to Payson, but to take it himself. IIe entered the courtyard of Alien ll;u•iendn while the wedding was tak- t prose within. None of his friends 4,uttld have recognized him. His frame was emaciated from sickness; his head was drawn back by the torture which lio had suffered; he limped upon feet that hod been distorted by the fire- brands in IsleKee's hands, and his face was overgrows by an unkempt beard, Sounds of laughter fel] upon his eaes ns he mounted the steps.

If heel: got my letter and told her. it's n11 tight, but if it miscarried the shock might kill her. I'll see Jack first." Dick had rid•1en first to Sweetwater ranch, but found the place deserted. The party, he mused, accounted for this. While he was panning a way to attract the attention of some one in the house and to get Payson to the garden without letting Echo know of his pres- ence Sagebrush Charley, who had es- pied the stranger through the window, sauntered out on the porch to investi- mate.

With a confi- dence born of deep self assurance, Slim taunched the answer, "Don't be a fat. 'fed calf." I At first his hearers did not grasp the 'full force of the misapplication of the •'parable. Mr, Price could not refrain from laughing. The others joined with him when the humor of the , reply .dawned upon them. Pointing scornful- ly cornfully at the fat sheriff, they shouted glee- fully, while Slim blushed through IA tan. "New, if you'll kindly show me twhere"— began Mr, Price. 1 "Sure.

Fresno had to blame some one, however. By this time Sagebrush had returned, carrying a bag. "What did you get?" asked Slim. "Corn," replied Sagebrush laconical- ly. "Ain't he the darndest!" Show Low expressed the disgust which the others showed. "Why, darn it," shouted Slim, shak- ing his fist at the unfortunate Sage- brush, "you can't let the bride an' groom hop the home ranch without chuckin' rice at 'em. It's bad medi- cine." "Ain't he disgustin' 1" interrupted Fresno. "What does rice mean, anyhow?" asked the bewildered Sagebrush. "It means somethin' about wishin' 'em good luck, health, wealth an' pros- perity an' all that sort of thing. It's a sign an' symbol of joy," rattled off Slim. "Well, now, ain't there more joy in corn than in rice?" triumphantly asked Sagebrush. Slim jerked open the top of the bag while Sagebrush stood by helplessly. "Well, the darned idiot!" he muttered as he peered into it. "It he ain't gone an' got it on the ear!" he continued as he pulled a big ear out. All the better," chuckled Sage- brush. "We'll chuck 'em joy in bunches." "Don't you know that if you hit the bride with a club like- this you'll put her plumb out?" cried Slim. Sagebrush was not cast down, how- ever. Always resourceful, he suggest- ed, "We'll shell some fer the bride, but we'll hand Jack his in bunches." The idea appealing to the punchers, each grabbed an ear of corn. Some brandished the ears like clubs; others aimed them like revolvers. "I'll keep this one," said Slim, pick- ing out an unusually large ear. "It's a 44. I'll get one of the greasers to shell some fer the bride." The bride was arrayed in her wed- ing gown. Mrs. Allen was ready for a fresh' burst of weeping. The girls had assembled in the large room' in which the ceremony was to be per- formed. Polly acted as herald for the cowboys. Appearing in the doorway, she commanded, "Say, you folks come on an' get seated!" Slim stood beside Polly as the boys marched past him. His general ad- monition was, "The first one of you Shorthorns that makes a break I'm go - in' to bend a gun over your head!" The guests grinned cheerfully se they marched past the. couple. "There's a heap of wickedness in that bunch," remarked 'Slim piously to When Sleep Fails You D4, CHASE'S NERVE FOOD will bring rest, comfort and vitality by building up the nerves. Mr. Jas.

' Grasping 1210 friend's hand weakly, he faltered, "Dick—Oleic Lane!" Jack realized: he trust act quickly. Some way or somehow Dick must be inept out of the house until after the inarringe. Then he, Jack, must take the consequences. Dick saw bis hesi- tation. ft was not what he had ex- pected. But something dreadful might b.nve happened Mille he was away, there bud been so hinny chanes. "Why, what's the matter?" he asked anxiously. "You got my letter? You knew I was coming?"- "Yes, yes, I know "Iarnely answered Jack. "But I expected notice, You know you said"— "I couldn't wait. Tack, I'm a rich Riau„thanks to you”— "Yho, yes; that's all right," said Pay- son, disclaiming the praise of the man he bad so grievously wronged with a hurried acknowledgment of his grati- tude. ` "And I hurried back for fear Echo"— "Oh, yes. I'll tell her about it when tile's ready to hear it.", "What is the matter, Jack? Are you !cooping something from me? Where is she?" "In there," said Payson feebly, point- ing to the door. Dick eagerly started toward the house, but Jack halted him, saying: "No, you mustn't go in now. There's a party—you see, she hasn't been well; doesn't expect you tonight. The shock might be toe much for her." Jack grasped at the lame excuse. It was the first to come to his mind. He must think quickly. This experience was tearing the heart out of him. He could not save himself from betrayal much longer. "You're right," acquiesced Dick. "You tell her when you get a chance. Jack, as I was saying, I've made quite a bit of money out of my Bisbee holdings. I can pay back my stake to you now." "Not now," said Jack nervously. Would this torture never end? Here was his friend, whom he had betrayed, come back in the very hour of his mar- riage to the woman who had promised first to marry him. Now he was offer- ing him money, which Jack needed badly; for bis prospective mother-in- law was complaining about his taking her daughter to a mortgaged home. "Sure, now," continued Dick, pulling a roll of bills from his pocket. "It's $3,000. Here it is, all in one bundle." "Not now. Let that wait," said Jack, pushing the money aside. "It's waited long enough," cried Dick doggedly. "You put the mortgage ou "Who may you be?' "Then walk right in," he invited. "lie's inside." Sagebrush was about to re=enter the house when Dick halted him with the request, "I want to see him out here— privately." "What's the name?" asked Sage- brush, his suspicions returning. "Tell him an old friend Ecom Mexi- 1.0" Sagebrush did not like the actions of the stranger and his secrecy. He was there to fight his boss' battles, if he had any. This was not in the con- tract, but it was a part read into the paper by Sagebrush. "Say, my name's Sagebrush Charley," he cried, with a show of importance. "I'm ranch boss for Payson. If you want to settle any old claim agiu Jack, I'm actin' as bis substitoot for him this .venin'.' "On the contrary," said Lane, with a smile at Sagebrush's outbreak, "he has a claim against me." It was such a pleasant, kindly look ne gave Sagebrpsh that the foreman was disarmed completely. "Pel tell him," he said over his shoul- fer. Dick mused over the changes that kad occurred since he bad left the re- glon. Two years' absence from a grow- ing country means new faces, new ranches and the wiping out et old land - Marks with the advance Of population Rud the invasion of the railroad. He wondered if Jack would know him with his beard. He knew—his raver told him—that his appearance had Changed greatly, and he looked twenty year older than on the day' he left the old home ranch. IDS trend of thought was interrupt- ed by the entrance of Jack On the porch from m the house. "My name's Payson," Jack began hurriedly, Casting ft hasty ,agree back- ward into the hallway, for the cere- mony was about to begin. "You want to see me?" "d'ttek," cried Dick, holding out his hand eagerly—"jack, old man, don't you know me?" he continued falter- ingly, seeing no sign of recognition !n his friend's eyes, Payson gasped, Shocked and startled. 1'1te than before hlirl wasa stranger where he had made his •* ..._._. • i.nx1 your ranch to let me leave the money, and it must be about due now," "Yes, it will be due, but let it wait" "What's the use?

Jack replied shortly, "All right; he's inside," "I didn't write to him," cheerfully re- sumed Dick, "I didn't want the kid' to know. He is so excitable he would have blabbed it right out.
