A dam has been built and Selter, being th« first homesteader, has a prior right to the watrr. A largo land feyndicate is trying to obtain control o£ prime by buvlng out S«lt«r's cl:t!nis by doing so they would have the settlers' lands at their mercy. Macpherson believes the syndicate, will ultimately succeed in tht4r purpose and has about decided to move his ranch, but li urged to stay and H.-jht for his rights by a younp Irlend, a consumptive named Jack Halcott. Macpherson harl been quite In timate with Keller's daughter, Nan, until a school-tcacher, Miss Winifred Sanborn, came to the settlement. It is evidently through the latter's wish that Macpherson Intends to leave without causlnjr trouble. CHAPTER II.—Kilgnre, one of Macpher son's men, comes to him one evening with" the information that. Setter has sold out his entire rlsrhts to the syndicate. MIs» Sanborn, with whom Macpherson has fallen desperately in love, asks him to cause no trouble and he decides to leave quietly. CHAPTER III.—Angus goes to see Selter and on the way learns that Wykamp, the la-nd company's engineer, who has charge of work of construction of a dam, is there. Meeting Miss Sanborn, he talks with her. hey walk on and meet Wykamp returning: he evidently knew Miss Sanborn, and, com ing up to them, passed an insulting remark. Macpherson strikes him and it is only through Miss Sanborn's pleading that Mac pherson does not kill him. CHAPTER IV.—Macpherson tells Hal cott Miss Sanborn has forbidden his seeing her again. It Is evident that Wykamp ha! some strange power over.herand Macpher son believes that Miss Sanborn'* words are Wykamn command and not her own wish CHAPTER V.-Macpherson's hatred oi Wykamp decidcd him to fight the syndi cate to a finish and he locates a placer claim just above the site of the syndicate's pro posed dam. CHAPTER VI.—One afternoon Halcott rides up the stream to Macpherson's claim. While climbing up the mountain side he stumbles and s.ides down Into the stream. CHAPTER VII.—Three weeks later he regains consciousness In Setter's cabin and learns that Selter's daughter Nan had rescued him. Selter has realized his mistake In selling his water rights and the feeling In the settlement Is very high against the syndicate and also against the engineer, Wykamp. The latter hns ceased annoying Winifred and he has turned his atUntlons to Nan. CHAPTER vru.—In But though for me the days were as the days of the lotus eaters, the tragi-comedy went on, workingoutits details with relentless precision. The breach between Selter and the land oompany widened day by day and Wykamp's reckless by-plav with the Tenaessean's daughter gave it the depth of personal hatred as between the vindi(rtive descendant of the Re demptioners and the engineer. Mac pherson was still on the side of peace, but it. was evident that his influence over Selter was strained to the breaking point. In the family at the farm-house the daughter was at sword's points with the father and mother for Wykamp's sake and though Wykamp had long since been forbidden the house. Nan met him and walked with him in open defi ance of her father's interdiction. It was in the hope that the girl might still be induced to listen to reason that I had written to Grant ley but when the forgotten news paper story was finally in my hands I was as one who has been suddenly made responsible for the safety of a powder-magazine. For, hidden under the charitable hyperbole of the re porter who had written the news paper account, there was a story too despicable for any recounting the story of Wykamp's perfidy and Wini fred Sanborn's dishonoring. Having the proof in my hands, I knew not what to do with it. It was incredible that it should not bring the girl to her senses but without showing it to her I could hardly hope to make her believe it. And to put the clip ping, and Grantley's letter of expla nation which accompanied it, into the hands of Nancy Selter, was like set ting the clocitwork of an infernal ma chine in order and turning it over to a passion-mad girl with power to set it in motion. Bruited abroad, there was no limit to the trouble for which the story might be responsible. It would inevitably destroy what small peace of mind Winifred had been able to gather up out of the wreck of the past in the new environment. It would probably cost Wykamp his life, at the crack of the mountaineer's rifle in ambush, or at the hands of a vigilance committee upon which every man in the settlement would be eager to serve. Failing in this, it might easily make a murderer of Macpherson. I knew my friend's character and the strength of,it but there be provocations too mighty to be shackled by any promise of for bearance. Under the circumstances I could dq nothing but watch and wait and, as the time passed, 1 did not dare to leave the Selter household, blowly, and by inches, as it were, it was driven in upon me that 1 should be esmoeUod ta set the ialerAal ma V- **J, S* «°u tfrP S t1 fiYNorsrs. ohine in motion aa a last resort, if CHAPTER I.—Ar.^ihs Marpher?OTi has I would writing to an Inti mate friend in the east Miss Sanborn tells her "he Is here," meaning Wykamp. It Is evident that they had met before, and he had greatly wronged her. In a letter from an old friend, a classmate of Wykamp's, Halcott learns that Wykamn is a bad one, and receives a newspaper clipping of the latter's escapade with Winifred CHAPTER IX. .' A MIDNIGHT VISIT. It was well on in the month ol August before I had progressed far enough on the road to convalescence to bear removal from the farm house at Valley Head to Macpher son's and after the buckboard trip to the ranch at Six-Mile became a pos* sibility, I still lingered on at Selter's, being- by that time critically inter ested in the small trrigi-comedy work ing itself out under my eyes as the long summer days waxed and waned. Interested, I say, but involved would be the better word. I could no longer call myself an onlooker. If there were other reasons for my stay—if, in those short weeks which will always be marked with a red letter in any poor calendar of mine, there had come into my life a thing which common loyalty bade me triple-lock in that chamber of the heart which is at once the sanotuary and the tomb of hopes unrealized and unrealizable, I shall not unfold it here. This is Macpherson's story, and none of mine but if I say that in those days of leaden-winged con valesccnce Winifred Sanborn gained an ally whose loyalty was not measured by the hope of reward, it is sufficient. 1 r{ lie Trouble on the Tore ito.

In Cc!orido. .ike Seller later settles owt I rofraiiica until it l»e- party to another came clearly evident from Nan's con temptuous attitude toward Winifrtwl that Wykamp had given the girl his own version of the shameful tale. After that, I waited only for what might promiae to ba a fitting oppor tunity. Tho opportunity came one dav when Selter was afield, and her mother's absence at one of the neigh bor's left Nan alone wtli me. They had slung a hammock for me under the shelter of the farm-house porch, and the girl was sitting on the door step, sewing. Not knowing any tra jectory of indirection in such a mat ter, I sent my first shaft as straight as I could aim it. "Nan, you care a great deal for Mr. Wykamp, don't yau?" I said, sitting up and trying to secure an eye-hold upon her. She bent lower over her work, and a dull flush began to creep slowly up under the softened brown of her neck and cheek. "Is that any o' your business?" she queried, antagonistically. "It is. I owe you my life. Nan, and I can't keep silence and see you throw yourself away on that scoun drel." "Humph!" she said. "Paw an' maw 've been puttin' you up to say that, I reckon." "Neither of them has ever said a word to me about yourself or the en gineer. But I know what I am talk ing about. The man is a scoundrel, dyed in the wool. He doesn't mean to be honest with you he has never meant to be honest with any woman he haB ever made love to." She went on sewing steadily, and but for the dull flush deepening now to crimson I should not have known that I had touched her. But the ex plosion came at last. "You're cowards, all of you!" she burst out, the were her to beautiful eyes which major charm flashing in dignation, and the scornfully. r'pe lips curling "You don't darst say it his'n face—nary one of you!" "Be patient. Nan, if you can. I'xn only trying to do you a service. Bring him to me and I shall show you how willingly I shall confront him with his past and give him a chance to clear himself—if he can." She was silent for a full minute. Then she said: "He's done cleared himself—to me." "Then he has lied to you." She flashed out again at that. "I say you don't darst call him a liar to his'n face! I said a minute ago 'at it was paw an' maw 'at set you on. I know better, now. It was the school-ma'am that's who it was. You needn't to tell me anything about her. I know!" "What has Wykamp told you about Miss Sanborn?" "That's none o' your business, either. But if I was her, I'd keep mighty quiet. I'd be 'shamed to let on, I would so." "Miss .S*abora has never lisped a word to mo, or to anyone, Nan. And she has nothing t) be ^shamed of she was innocent as^—as you mean to be. You will understand me when I say that if I were her brother the worUl wouldn't be large enough to hold Wykamp and myself." "i don't believe, it," she said, stub bornly. "Vou can't prove narc thing ag'inst. him—none of yoij." "I can. can prove that which should mako most men and all woman despiae him." "Humph!" she said, again. "Talk's mighty cheap!" It was now or never. I had come to my final round of ammunition,and if the flho'. missed the battle would be lost. I took the newspaper clip pin j- from my pocket-book and read it nlcuil to her, prologuing it with as much of Grantley's letter as was necessary to clear the reporter's story of nny possibility of being mis? understood. She heard me through with her needle at her Jip, and I was -dismayed to see her eyeB grow hart} with af.ded Incredulity, The shot had missed. "Let me see that.," she commanded, when I had made an end. I returned the slip and the lettpy to my pouket-book. "Not now. Nan. You are disap pointed and angry, as you have a right to be. But you should quarrel with the man—not with the facts." "I don't believe nare single word of it, an' I never will, 'less'n I see it with my own eyes." She said it deliberately and quite without heat. "You've jest fixed it up amongst you, an' it's a mean lie from beginnin' to end. If I eared enough about it I'fl tell him whnt-all you say." I shrugged my shoulders. "J owed it to you to tell you, Nan, and I've pa'd the debt, The facts are exactly as I have stated them, and if you Still refuse to believe it will be the •worse for you, I have spoken first to you because It seemed no more than fair, bi!t I must warn you that I can't in justice allow the matter to rest here." I'.er needle was flying again, and it was wel! that the thread was strong. "Whtit-nll will you do?" she que ried, without looking up. "I shall do what 1 ought to have clone in the first instance—go to your father with this information." I expected another outburst and braced my flagging nerves against the shock of it. It did not com Shf relapsed into doggpej silence, keeping her place on the door-step and Bew ing diligently until her task wa» finished. Then she went into the house and I saw her no more. I meant to carry out my ultimatum that very night when Selter should be free to listen to me. It was a haz ardous thing to do, since it might lead to a murder but it seemed to be a duty clearly defined. And when I reflected that I tfcould bav« Itlllffll ?\j 1/M T4'"4 -i.im .•est'* jtT -1* itsissi -r. opportunity to suggest temporizing measures before Selter could go to extremities, I did not hesitate. But the time proved unpropit:ous. It was late when the farmer came in, and when he had eaten his supper not any diplomacy of mine sufficed to compass an interview which might promise to be free from interruption. I gave it up, finallj', and went to bed in my room under the rough rafters' consoling myself with the thought that a day more or less could make no difference. None the leas, the threatened oli maxing of the tragi-comedy oppressed me, and my dreams were those half real horror* which seem too terrible to be true, and too vivid to be phan tasies. In one of them I fancied Nan SHE! WENT INTO THE HOUSE AND I SAW HER NO MORE. had come to my room to avenjje the arraignment of her lover. I saw the door open by inches, heard the creak of the clumsy hinges, saw her figure In the half-light made by the moon rays silting through the cracks in the shingling. I made sure it was a reality and not a dream. I could hear the night wind sighing in the oanyon, and the muffled roar of the Torollto among its bowlders. She had one hand behind her as if she would keep the weapon concealed, and as •he crept nearer the horror of it gTew upon me until I could feel the •weat standing thickly upon my fore head. Not until the shadowy figure had faded into indistinctness behind the chair where I had thrown my olothes oould I break the spell and rlae on my elbow. When I was un questionably awake, some of the im aginings proved to be indubitable realities. The wind was sighing in the canyon, and the tumbling stream lifted its hoarse roar in deep-voiced accompaniment. The moonbeams were sifting needle-like through the ohinks between the shingles, and not withstanding the dim half-light, I oould have sworn that the door was moving slightly on its hinges, Also, the cold sweat of terror was unmis takable. The following morning, when I dressed to go down to breakfast, I felt for my pocket-possessions in me chanical obedience to a life-long habit. They were undisturbed but when I glanced into the pocket-book I realized suddenly that my dream had been something more than a vag ary of the night. The newspaper clipping and the letter from Grant ley were gone.

It is not the case with Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescript tion, which makes weak women strong' and sick women well, A woman may imagine she's weak, or may fancy she's* sick, but her imagination can't add forif 'j pounds to her weight. The positive*} proof of the curative power of "Favorite? Prescription" is found in the restoration' of health which is recorded in face and form, of strength which can be tested, and weight which can be registered In pounds and ounces. The general health of women is so intimately connected with the local health of the womanly organs that when these are diseased the whole body: suffers loss. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre scription cures womanly diseases. It establishes regularity, stops weakening drains, heals inflammation and ulcera-/ tion and cures female weakness. "I am very glad to let other poor sufferer* know what Dr. Pierce's medicines have done for me," writes Mrs. Edwin H. Gardner, of Beechwood, Norfolk Co., Mass. (Box 70.)
