Jewett did not complain. He had no con

he had worked with fair tuccers. and hard
enough to give an osteite relish to Idling
now that idling was. in a manner, a duly.
Moreover, he found himself mightily enter
talned, the turf was wholly a new field cf
observation to him. Hud Heaton, the
trainer whom Jewett hod Inherited along

fcc Bald. "The name strikes me as a noattiv.

ln the stable it may bo Sussv. or Itlllv. t.;t

Then he strolled off, laughing, with his !
hands ln his pockets. Heaton hhook a fist i
at him and slapped the filly on her nuarter. I
wHj, ui iwiiiy. juol
n was a riuartcr full of power In fact hero '
was power everywhere, although the crea
ture was modeled on lines so ungrlnly. She
had been hlghlv tri-d and Heaton had had
great hopea of landing with her cne of the
big 2-year-old events. Now he said, spite
fully: "Win the nursery! Nuthln'. You
couldn't win a quarter race, carryln' that
name."
Sarsaparllla dropped her head and looked
sleepier than ever, nut that afternoon she
jiicked up her name and her ninety-six
pounds and simply tmothcred a field that
bad the best eolts of the heaton In It. Still
Heaton was ugly. "Walt! Tho hoodoo
hadn't had no time ter work." he said.
Sure enough, the next week, Sarsnparllla,
with her three-pound penalty, came In a bad
last behind half the colts oho had defeated
with such ease.
"H-ml ' Turn her out and let her crow
up to the name." Jewett said, sagely, by way
of answer to Heaton'a lamentations. Heaton
would not agree to that. He kept tho filly
going and she seemed to thrive on bard
work. She ate lustily, frolicked and
Tranced In her exercise, nipped her rubber
If he did not use her exactly to her llkfrig
and found nut that she passesscd a line,
handy pair of heels. 3lm also ran beauti
fully, the day beforb a race. Race daja
were her chosen seasons of elegant leisure.
After three months of it Jewett i,ent her
forcibly to gratis. Ho had bocr-impted to
tell her hut Belling, except between sca
kons, was against NVynward stable traditions.
Reside, the filly had won out more than a
season's expenses that lln-ky first time. She
came back to training ln her 3-year-old form
lankcr. leggier, ungalnller than over.
Speedier, too when she cbosc to run. The
when waa always an unknown quantity, until
after the race. Sometimes she ran her race
overnight, after her old habit. At others
she simply would not work, but went away
from the post like a lamb and was never
headed until ehe came to the wire.
If her owner had not been lucky enough to
back her decently when ebc lost and let her
run loose when she won he would have
come through the season without a thread of
character. Heaton stuck doggedly to hl
antipathy to the name, swearing dver and
over that as Tomhanncr tho brown mare
would have turned out another Miss Wood
lord, or at least a bigger Kironzi. Heaton
believed In luck, you nee. So did Jim. the
brown marc's black rubber; so, meat of all,
did Extry, her rider, who was Jim'b step
son, the Wyndward stable's second Jockey,
and as near a bundle of whipcord, ttteel wire
and whaleboneTB8 a black lad IS years old
well could be.
"I done call dat dar boy Extry 'case he
sholy wuz, th'owcd In ter do match I made.
I nuver dreampt Mrlar had Mm," Jim ex
plained to Jewett. Jewett liked Extry. So
did Sarsaparllla shortened In stablo mouth
to Sassy, as Jewett hart foretold. She had
promoted Extry. Indeed, from stablo boy to
Jockey; and would run for bltn, when she
would run at all. better than for anybody
else. As a consequence Extry worshiped
her. She reveled In long races. When Ex
try held her hard, knowing there was noth
ing ahead and the winning post u good mtlo
away, he was ln heaven. The wind of her
mad rush might almost blind him, his head
might grow dlrzy as the furlong ros.n flash?d
past, and tbe roar of the grandstand swell
hoarse and angry as tho growl of stormy sets,
but ho did not mind. Ho had only ono con
scious and vital purpose to get there first.
If he caught the thunder of hoofs behind
he lar a little further over her back and
called almost In her ear:
"Olt dar. old 'ooman! Git liar! Git dar!"
She got there often enough to make tho
talent respect her, ami tho betting ring hate
her. Sho was the unknown quantity for
evor dliturblng their equations of proilt and
loss. She was wholly without form; a crea
ture of whim and tricky InipuUe. of whom
ncr owner and trainer both said they could
say nothing except that the worse her trial '
-bowed her the better bcr race was apt to
prove her.
So there was rejoining, keen and sincere,
when In her 4-year-old form Sarsaparllla
proved a consistent loser. It appeared she
could not win, at any weights, nor In nny
company. The wise nion scored Jowett for
keeping bcr In training. It was an Insult
alike to the turf and tbe W-n.vard stable

in Extry than In all tho wise men.
And Extry said: "No slre-ro! 'Taint

Hh walked away chewing hard upon It.

Sarsaparllla! Dared he trv It
neaion would enort maybe resign If he
knew. It was against all stable tradition
if he did try it. and the mare lost, the world

on purpose to lose. Theretofore he had not
cared a great deal what the fnnlUh world
said of the things; it but half underatood.
Now ho had to take account of Its verdict.
He was deep In love with Constance Eyre,
eolo daughter of Major Eyre of the Dluffi.
the greatest stickler for nice points of turf
honor anywhere south of Mason and DIxon'H
lino. Tho major held that a turfman's
reputation wag like a woman' Irretrieva
bly stained by oven unjust suspicion. Ho
had raced himself ln his younger days. Now !
he bred only runners, but that kept him I
fullr in touch with all matters cf ih turf I
"It's the stiffest old risk going. Bi1
hanged, though, if I don't take It," Jewett
cald, next morning, as ho walked to tho
stable about daylight. Heaton stared as
though he thought bis employer tta-k mad,
wnen jewett said to mm:
"Old man, we're going to try an experl-
ment. Yes, we. You have got to te In it
tho same as inytelf. Send ou,t Sassy this '
morning to work with the slowest thing in
the stable and make her come In first even
if the other fellow's bead has to be pullrd
half off. When whe docj come first give
her an apple a ripe red apple, sweet and
Juicy. One apple and no more, undetstand.
Tomorrow do the same thing only make It
two apples You must never get beyond
that. Keep It up all week, then let ler rt n
true. If she come) first, well and good; ths
gets the apples. If she tulks she don't. '
Stick to that program until further onlcrj.
meantime giving her every chance to be.it
the bent we've got In stall." '
"I understand, sir," Heaton said with
grim, yet elaborate defcr?nce. "But y u
understand I'll do It only beca?e I m under
contract, and furder. that I'll tell eve y
body whut I done and how I done It ft your
own special order. They'll see straight that
as the cussed critter won't win, you're
a-tralnln' of her to lose. Maybe, though,
she'll up and die o' wind oolle. Ef only she
dote, shan't hhe have or fust-class fun'rul
rosewood coffin, tllvcr handles, plate glass
and all that o' that with tho rest er the
! hosscs strune out behind In mournln'?"
"All that can be settled later." Jewett eald
airily. Then he galloped five miles to break- '
fast at the Bluffs and sun himself In the '
light of Constance's merry brpwn eyes. It
was early February, but the stir of new life '
was ln all things. Hard fa he rode be could
glftnpse the faint greening of the new grass,
pushing up through last year's brown mat,
and hear, soft and faint, the dove calls from
the wood. It was two months to the cup
day It fell always early In April. That wan
little enough time for his experiment, but a
great deal too much far his suspense. He
wanted tbe cup. he wanted Constance as he
had never wanted anything before. And he
somehow a sense that he was to win or
lose both upon that fateful, swift-coming
April day.
Three hours later he sat opposite Major
Eyre In the library at the Bluffs, smoking a
particularly soothing cigar and toasting his
feet at a snapping open fire. Constance

waddle and sent the hoise off at full run,
chocking only to open the lawn gate. There
he looked back and saw in an upper window,
faint and uncertain, Constance, waving him
a last gcodby.
When at last the cup race was called all

of Sarsaparllla and tho applca had an under-
