An American girl but recently re
turned from Europe insists that (be
men of tbe Latin race are far and
•way more pleasing to women than
tbe American men.
"I met many charming Frenchmen
and other Latina," abe declared, "and
I found Invariably that they are more
attractive than our own men. Now,
don't let your patrlotlam blind you or
look wildly around for a band to play
'The Star Spangled Banner,' ao you
can enjoy my confualon and ahaine.
Listen to me a minute. Ian't It quite

The main object In the life of the
Latin man la to pleaae women. He
makea a study of It. He devotes moat
•f hla time to It. He has the love of
the chase. And then, moreover, he
has'the background of centuries of old
custom, of hlatory. The American, 1
am sorry say,' doea not fascinate.
He does not try to please. His mind
la occupied with matters which to him
are far more Important than being
nice to women. H· lacks finesse—that
Is the trouble.
"Remember, I apeak only of super
ficial attractiveness. I go no deeper
than that. I do not Intend to discuss
whether a large part of the Latin's
charm Is only a veneer—whether the
American man has not, after all, more
genuineness and solidity than the Lat
in. I quite agree with the aaylng that
the Frenchman makes the best lover

But tbe world over women Ilk· the
man who makes a good lover. I feci
sore that nine out of ten w men who
bare bad the opportunity of meeting
• great many men of the Latin race
and have felt their charm would, If
given their choice, choose a man of
that race."
And then, when the listener ha· suf
ficiently admired the perspicacity of
the observant American girl, comes
the Inevitable question:
Do we choose our husbands because

HEALTH AND BEAUTY.
For cracked beel* soak the feet in
warm .water a few minuter and apply
equal parts of rose water and glycerin
to the heels and side of the feet for
three or four nights.
The feet are injured by being always
so closely confined. While few persons
will adopt the barefoot fad, even for
the privacy of on·'· room, H to well to
get into the habit of wiailH sandal*
about your room whenever yon are to
be In It for any length of t'-ne. In
this way feet get an air bath that is
most beneficial.
If the hand* are not good and the
nails badly shaped try to Improve the
latter by training the «reticle. Every
night soak the fingers la bot water for
five minutes. Xben with an orange
wood «tick press back the cuticle to
lengthen the nails. Afterward rub In
cold cream. Do not omit this or the
soaking will make the cvtiele very dry.
Most mothers know what It is to
have a child screaming with toothache.
The next time your ears are so tor
tured try putting a little baking soda
In the cavity, 11 there to one. The
mouth should first have been rinsed
with hot water. Even stapler and al
most certain to give relief is hot witch
hazel used to rinse ths mouth. Re
peat every little while until the pain Is
eased.
The advantage of hot water taken
inwardly Is well known, but not every
one knows that it has been found val
uable in fighting grip. A famous doc
tor, noted for the speedy cure of his
grip patients, says he attributes his
success to the fact that he always
puts his patients to bed at the first
clgn of disease and makes them drink
quantities of hot water. This should
be taken at intervals of every two
hours and as hot as ran be drunk with

"Well, darn It all," apologized tbt
iherlff to Jack, "It's all darn fool busi
ness anyway. Buck here, be «tarred
It"
Jack smiled sarcastically and, glanc
ing at McKee, remarked, "Buck Mc
Kee's started a good many things In
bis day"—
Buck began to bluster. lie could not
face Jack fairly. Already placed on
the defena· when he had considered
be would be the accuser, McKee took
refuge In tbe plea of being wronged
by false suspicion.
"I hain't goto'," he whined, "to hay»
folks suspicion me uv any such doln's
as the klllln' uv 'Ole Man' TerrtlL I
got a wltneas to prove I wuzn't In
twenty mile* uv the place."
"Who's your witness?" asked Slim
In his most Judicial tones.
"Bud Lane. Me an' him rode over to
the weddln' together from the Lasy
K, au' I wuz put out as not flttln' to
be there, an' by that very man there
that did the klllln'."
The punchers had to grin In aplte of
the seriousness of the occasion. Buck
appeared to be deeply hurt at the un
ceremonious way he had been left oat
at the feast.
"What makes you point to me aa the
man?" asked Jack quietly.
"You will late gettln' to yer own
weddln'."
Fresno eoold not repress his feelings
any longer. He started angrily to
ward McKee, but Jack and Sagebrush
held him back. The others were about
to follow his lead when Slim motioned
them back with the caution, "Keep out
of this, boys!"
"I was late," explained Jack, "but I
told you I rode around to the station
to get a wedding preseut I ordered for
my wife"—
Jim Interrupted him to substantiate
the statement. Pointing to a desk, be
said: "That's no. There it Is, too—that
there desk."
The Sweetwater outfit nodded In ac
quiescence, but the others looked In
credulous
Buck sneered at the defense which
Jack made. "Nobody saw you over
that way, did they?"
"I saw Terrlll. It ipust have been
Just before he was killed. I didn't
meet anybody else." Jack showed no |
trace of temper under the Inquisition, j
"Of course you saw him before he |
wuz killed—about a minute. Mebbe
you didn't plug htm tbe next minute ι
with a 44Γ
lag blood. Drawing bis gun, be at
tempted to get a fair «hot at the ac
cuser. Fresno and Show Low grabbed
him by the arma, holding him back.
The foreman shouted, "There'll be
some on· plugged right now If you
all make another break like that Γ
811m waved his haml* over his bead,
driving the men backward, as If he !
were (booing away a flock of chick
en*.
"Easy, now—easy," he drawled.
"There ain't a-goln' to be nothin* doin'
here 'cept law an' Justice."
Buck laughed eneerlngly at the
wavering of hie men. He would hare
to do something to put more h«wt
Into them ard regain the ground he
had lost by ht» single handed conduct
of the case.
"There hain't, eh?" he asked con
temptuously. "Well, It's lucky 1
brought some αν my own outfit with
me."
"Mebbe you'll need them If you get
too careless with your talk," answered
the unruffled sheriff.
Turning to Jack, Slluj said, "This
fool thing can be settled with on·
word from you."
The young ranchman listened to the
iherlff earnestly. He wished to dear '
himself forever of all suspicions. He
did not want Echo ever to hear that
there was a false Impression abroad j
that she was the wife of a slayer. '
"What la It?" he asked elinply.
"Why, you paid off a mortgage of j
an even three tbousan' dollars last |
week, didn't you?"
"Yes. What has that to do with
It?" he asked.
Buck broke In at this point Here
was the strongest card that he had In
his hand, and the sheriff bad played
It to McKee's advantage.
"Plenty!" Buck shouted. "Old Ter
rlll wus shot an' killed an' robbed,
nn' tbe man who did It got just three
(hemean' dollars."
"An' you mean to say that the boss |
here"— began Sagebrush, In his anger
making a ruth at McKee. He was .
held back, bnt the disturbance attract
ed Echo and Mrs. Allen from the
kitchen. Echo hurried to her hus
band's side. II· allpped his arm about
her waist, and together they faced his
accuser.
"All yon gut to My is whar did you
fet that money t" cried Bock, who had
teen Pick Lan· pay it to Payson and
:onJectur»4 that Tayson did not dare
to reveal the fact of this payment,
with (ill tha disclosure It implied.
"Why, It was paid to me by"— Then
lack stopped. He could not teli who
tav· him the money without revealing
m Echo the return of Dick. The whole
Blserable lie would then come out.
Echo noticed Jack's hesitancy.
"What is U? What's the matterΓ*
ibe asked la frightened tone·.
"Nothing, nothing," be answered
lghtly to lessen her terror.
'Hats »fl, everybody!" commanded
Mm la Mmim to th· presence ·(

■""Who « re these meut Whet'*
wrong?" pleaded Echo.
Buck bowed to the trembling wo
uiau, who hud thrown her arms about
tier hua band's neck.
"Nothla'," he exclaimed, "only we
want to know whar jer husband got
the money to pay off the mortgage oo
this ranch."
The request seemed a very simple
one to Echo. All the talk of harming
Jack, the high words, the threats,
could be silenced easily by her hero.
Smiling Into hie eyes, Echo said, "Tell
them. Jack."
"X can't," ho faltered.
•'It was paid to him by a friend,"
bravely began Echo—"» friend to
whom he lent It some time »go."
Buck Interrupted her explanation.
"Then let him tell his friend's nam·
an' whar we can And him." Turning
to Jack, he bullied: "Come on! What'·
bis name?"
' Jack closed his eyes to shut out the
sight of his wife. In his agony he
clinched his fists until his nails sank
Into the flesh. "I can't tell you that!"
he cried In his misery.
"Of course he can't," sneered Buck,
smiling evilly In his triumph.
"He can't account fer himself on the
night ur the weddln' ; be rides a pacln'
horse—rode on that night; he gets
three thousan' dollars paid him, an'
he can't tell who paid It. What's the
verdict?" Buck did uot wait for an
answer. Raising his voice, he shouted,
"Guilty!"
"Jack, Jackl What have you to
say?" begged Echo.
"Nothing," was his only answer.
"Tell him he lies!" cried Sagebrush.
"Jack, we all know you. You're a» j
white a man as ever lived, an' they
ain't one of this outfit that ain't ready
to die fer you right now."
"You bet!" chorused his men.
"He hain't goln' to get off like that,"
declared Buck. Looking confidently at
his own followers, be said, "The Lazy
Κ can take care αν him."
Buck's men moved closer to him,
preparing to draw their guns If ueed
be and open Are on Jack's defenders.
"Look out, boss!" warned Sagebrush
at the hostile movement of Buck and
his punchers.
Hold on! drawled the sheriff, who [
as the danger grew more real became
more deliberate In bis movements.
"They ain't goln' to be nothln' done
here unless It's done In the law. You
all know me, boys. I'm the sheriff.
This man's raj· prisoner." Pointing to j
Jack, he added, "There ain't nobody !
goln' to take him from me—an' live." j
Buck saw Jack slipping from his |
clutches. "Ycr not goln' to be bluffed
by one man, are you, boys?"
"No," his punchers answered In uni- !
son, crowding toward Jack, who held j
up his haud and cried: "Stop! I want
a fair deal, and I'll get It."
"I'll settle this thing all right All I
ask Is a few words alone with my
wife."
Jack clasped Echo to his breast as
he begged this boon from the men
who sought hie life.
"No!" blustered Buck.
"Ye<«," ordered Slim quietly, but em
phatically. "Mr. Payson, you'll give
me your word you won't try to es
cape?"
"Yes," agreed Jack.
"HU word don't go with us." shout
ed Buck.
Slim laid his hand on the butt of
his revolver, ready to draw If neces
sary to enforce his command. Back
saw the movement and shouted to
him: "Keep yer hand away from that
gun, sheriff. You know I am quick on
the draw." He significantly fingered
hie holster as he spoke.
"1Î0 I've heard tell,'· agreed Slim.
hastily withdrawing his liana from his
revolver.
Slim appeared to agree to the sur
render of Jack to Buck and his punch
ers, permitting them to deal with him
as they saw fit. He fumbled In hi·

a bag of tobacco mud a package of rice
paper. Ostentatiously he begau to roll
a cigarette. Then, with the quickness
of α cat, hie left band was plunged In

thoroughly aroused, shouted: "Buck

Preceded by some of th· Sweetwa

Jack nodded his head.
"I'll wait fer you In the other room,"

"Maw, Tolly—we all better leave 'em

As the woman and the girl left th·
room the old ranchman paused at the
doorway leading to the kitchen to ad
riae his son-in-law earnestly. "I 'low
yon better tell her. It's best."
The two young people were left
alone In the room In which they had
passed so many happy hours to
a crisis tn their lives. The day which
bad begun so sunnily was to end In
darkest clouds. The awful accusation
was Incredible to Echo. Her faith In
her husband was not shaken. Jack,
•be felt, could explain. But, no matter
what the outcome might be. she would
be loyal to the man Khe loved- On this
point she felt wholly confident. Had
she not pledged her faith at the mar
riage altar?
"Jack?" A volume of questions was
In the word. Tailing her hands in his
and looking searchlngly Into her eyes,
he said:
"Before I tell you whm-'s ·***
mind these many V c*S» I .want to hold
you in my arms and hear you say,
'Jack, I believe In you.' "
KcliO put her arms about his neck
and. nestling close to his breast, de
clared: "I do believe In you, no mat

you. No matter If all the world call·
you guilty, I believe In yon and lore
you."
Jack Heated himself at the tabla and
drew his wife down beside "hlna. Pet

before him, he murmured. "You're a
wife, a wife of the weet, as fair as Its
skies and as steadfast us Its hills, and
I—I'm not worthy"—
."Not worthy—you haven't—It Isn't"—
gasped Echo, starting back from htm,
thinking that Jack was about to con
fess that under some strange stress of
clrcumstaucea he had slain the express
agent.
"No, It Isn't that," hastily answered
Jack, with a shudder at the Idea.
"Γτβ lied to you." he simply con
fessed.
"Lied to me—you?" cried Kcho In
dismay.
"I've been a living lie for months,"
relentlessly continued Jack, nerving
himself for the ordeal through which
he would have to pass.
