ALL RUN DOWN, NOW HEALTHY “Honestly, in all my 15 year* of ex perience as a nurse I have never known of a medicine that compares with Tanlac,” is the glowing tribute of Nurse M. E. Choppelie. “Time and again I have recommended Tanlac and always with surprising results. Some time ago my Mother complained of being generally run down and on the verge of a nervous breakdown. She had no appetite, her stomach was disordered, digestion weakened nnd her bowels were most irregular. “Tanlac came to her nid at once, brought on a vigorous appetite so that she began to eat with the greatest relish, and made the digestive organs function properly onoe more. In a short time she was well, happy and strong, and although over 8(> years of age she is now vigorous enough to look after her household duties and go out quite a little, too. This Is why I praise Tanlac and consider it the best tonio and health builder ever dis covered.” VVliat Tanlac has done for others it can also do for you. Tnnlac Is for sale ay all good dtuggisis.

HILL FROM WILLIAM FOX'S GREAT PICTURE ROMANCE OF THE EAST AND THE WEST BY CHARLES KENYON AND JOHN BUSSELL “Good God! lie’s done lor! shouted Marsh, and a groan went np all along the crowded Hut cars. Miriam, at the window ot’ the private ear, clinched her lists until the nails cut the palms of her hands, breathing a prayer for the boy in such deadly peril. Then she forgot to pray. From the fallen horse he was up at a bound, leaping forward like an arrow from a bow. Hhe had not believed it possible for a human being to run as fast as that boy ran. Quartering toward the train, lie came almost straight to 1 ward her. She caught glimpses of his lace ai d could not be lieve she saw aright, lie was smiling actually smiling, as he leaped forward like an antelope with the ponies of the yelling Sioux not fifty yard behind and as arrow alter arrow flashed past or over his bounding fig ure. A few armed with rifles shot as rapidly as they could re load upon their ponies. The boy ran, head down, dodging, from side to side but without losing ! much distance. And always as he ran he smiled as if his race with death was the greatest sport in the world, lie swerved from the line of Miriam’s vis sion, but Marsh, .lesson, Deroux, the temporarily deranged Casev and all of the rest of the wddiy ! excited crowd on the flat cars saw him lunge forward in a des perate leap for the hand-rail of the rear platform of the private car, saw him clutch it, cling fast and swing himself to safety. Before Miriam could turn from the window the rear door of the car was flung open and a tall, youth with gay excitement ! sparkling in ey^.i as blue as the Nebraska sky <ame at her like a whirlwind, seised her by the shoulders and pressed her knee: . to the floor. ) “Down got down below the window level!” he shouted “They’re riding right along with the train shooting the r little bows and arrows. Keep down —only a few minutes—we'll run away from ’em.” i’ll at cnee they found them selves looking into each other’s eyes, and Miriam discovered that siie was clinging to this sur prising young man’s hand and that his right arm was very firm ly attached to her ist. The curious d’seovery did not pro voke her to any immediate or hasty movement. It was a nice hand, big, hard, but warm and comforting; d the arm around her felt extremely satisfying, delightfully protective. It was the young man who first withdrew from the intimate group that circumstances had formed. lie s'owly removed his hand, regretfully, it seemed and then bis arm. lie looked again into the bi.: purple eyes, and lilted the g'rl from the floor “ ’Fraid .1 startled you,’-’ he /aid, with absolutly the most at tractive smile that Miriam had ever seen upon a man’s face, a smile with a funny little squirk in each cornc . What was theie about that smile that seemed curiously familar? “You see, l luuln t time, real ly, to annouunce myself, even it 1 had known that there was n lady in the car. Thi* __ of it, a train, a car—out here! You see those red gentlemen we have just parted from had an idea they wanted a sample of my hair, just a little keepsake to hang in .. lodge. They are persist eut in notions cf that kink It didn’t suit me at all. So 1 fooled ’em.” “I think you are wonderful!” said Miriam, and looked every word if it. Her big eyes were bright with .admiration. I did nt know that anything except a deer could run as fust as you ran after your horse fell.” “Well you see I learned to sprint while running races with Indians, relatives of the hair collectors back there, but a pretty good lot. I have had a lot of practice in hundred-yard dashes. I had a good start ami knew I could keep ahead for a minute or two. What 1 was really afraid of was, after poor old Star got his that I’d get punctured by an arrow before I ooiild make the train. The Sioux are wi a (is with tlie bow l ut about tlie worst shots in tlie world with a rifle.” ‘ IIiw oa car h dd you eonie to be out here?” the girl asked. “I was looking for you—not you personally, pf*'course (again the flashing smile), but the rail road, hoping to strike a construe* tion train somewhere along the line- And here I am.” “Yes, biit—” Marsh came in, with Jesson and Deroux at his heels. “Young man, you certainly got through by the skin of your teeth,” he said. “For about five minutes I wouldn’t have given a short bit for your chance of winning out. My name is Marsh. I’m superintendent of the road. This is my daughter Miriam, and these gentlemen—” .Miriam! cried the young man, “not Miriam Marsh?” He sprang to the girl and caught her hands, holding her from him. studying her lovely face. “It is of course! Don’t you remember me? Davy Brandon of Springfield?” He tore open the top button )f his buckskin hunting shirt anil showed a pol ished coin hun_ from his neck by a thong. “Mriam! do you see? The Black Hawk medal that Lincoln gave us. I’ve alway# kept it It’s been around my neck ever since I was a kid.” He kept her hands, drinking the pleasure of he.- face. Miriam with a swift movement reached upward and kissed him. “There!” she sa:d. “That proves how glad I am, Davy! I can’t believe it’s true. And yet the very moment you dashed into the ear I fdt, somehow, as if I had seen you before—the queer est feeling!” ssonil and Dcroux had with- j drawn n little to one side, .lesson ! with a scowl, Deroux with a smile of detached amusement. Yet his eyes were unsmiling. One watching him keenly might have supposed that he had formed an immediate dislike for the new efuiu r who had fairly exploded into their little group. As for Jesson, distaste was written plainly upon his countenance. Fresh from love making with Ruby Kenny, aware of a passion for tlie danceliall girl who now filled his thoughts, perfectly conscious that he was not in love with Miriam, it angered him nevertheless, to see another man especially a young and obviously attractive man, play the hero in her sight- And he had nrt missed the look in their eyes as they stood close together when he entered the car, or the kiss she had so impulsively offered. “Well, well, Davy,” said Thomas Marsh. “This is quite the most remarkable meeting of old friends I ever heard about Think of it! We lose sight of you for 15 years and then you pop out of nowhere one jump ahead of Indians and leap squarely among us. You can’t beat that in the novels.” “It was magnificent!” cried the Frenchman. “I could not believe my eyes as I saw this young man actually out-speeding Sioux horsemen. I congratulate you! ’ ’ “Mr. Deroux,” said Marsh “this is Davy Brandon, a very old friend from my home town in-Illinois. Mr. Jesson, my chief engineer, Davy.” Davy shook hands. Jesson gave him a limp greeting, and turned a shoulder. Deroux, ex tending his left hand, gripped hard, black eyes staring into Davy’s blue. Sv mething far back in the young man's mind stirred unensiy, then settled again in the obscurity of the forgotten. Yet Davy was conscious of a strange thrill as he met Deroux’s bold gaze, something which sent a cold chill up his back. It puzzled him. He continued to stare Marsh noticed it “Perhaps you and Deroux may have ru;. across each other somewhere in this country Davy,” he suggested. “No,” said Davy, slowly. “I don't think so.” “No,” said Deroux in his positive way. “I never forget a man.” “Where is your father, Davy?” Marsh asked. “Dead,” said Davy. “Dead these 15 years, Mr. Marsh. Killed on the trail out here—murdered by a rene gade wh.tc man who led a band of Cheyennes. Dad hid me be hind a log and they missed me in their haste. Spence, the scout, came along and found me. Then I went to school in Sacramento and grew up there until I re joined Spence. For the past few years I have been with him all through the mountain coun try, trapping and scouting, with the Oglallas most of the time That about covers my history.” Miriam who was standing where she could not help seeing Deroux’s face, was puzzled by its expression As Davy talked it seemed to her that a mask dropped the mask of hearty amiability that Deroux usually showed. Ho had turned aside iuwa.ru me window, through wliieh he gazed with savage eyes She had never seen such a look of utter ferocity- It frightened her. She thought to herself, “this man does not like Dave Brandon. Why?” ller percep tion was all the keener, perhaps, because of J.sson’s coolness to ward Davy. That annoyed her, but she put it down to character istic jealousy. But this other tiling was different. Jesson’s . face expressed dislike the dis like that one man often feels in stantly, unae mutably, toward another man. Deroux’s face re vealed hatred and something else she could not fathom. Had it been any other than this bold Frenchman of famous courage she would have said that fear peered from those black eyes. But that wr.s impossible As a matter of fact why should De roux either hate or fear this young man who amounted to nothing in his life? She com pelled herself to think that she was too imaginative, overwrough. and turned toward her father and her girlhood playmate. CHAPTER XVIII THE PRICE OF A GENTLEMAN Rolling back to North Platt ■ in the late evening, Miriam and Davy talked of the old day-; in Springfield, the days when they had been like brother an I lister. Both were oddly consci ous of change. Miriam did not try to analyze the feeling, but , her woman’s instinct told her 1 that the emotii i which stirred her heart r.s she knelt in the strong protection of Davy Uran . don’s encircling arm was some thing Jesson had never been able j to arouse. It was d'sturbing. Being a natural, human girl, she was no: at all averse to the admiration of good-looking young men, and though by no means a coquette was not unskilled in the gentle art of harmless flirtation. But this was something which made her heart throb, which filled her with a sdt, warm glow which, curiously, both excited ami puzled her. A she looked at Davy she was conscious of her flushed cheeks. It was difficult not to look at him. She felt a curious pride, as though she had acquired a possessiv1 right to this fine figure of a man. "lie is absolutely the most attractive man I have ever seen,” she thought. "If h • weren't so strong and self-reli ant, lie would be almost t o go d lo king. At 25 Davy Brandon challenged the glance of any man and the admiration of any woman. Flat-footed in his Oglalla moccasins,he stood siv feet, one inch, straight as the sons of Ma j ta-Tatonka. Thick brown hair, curling a little, covered bis well shaped head with its thinker’s forehead. Hh eyes were deep blue and very serious, though they could smile as intriguingly as his lips. His nose was straight and regular, not too slender for the strong mouth beneath. It was the mouth which somehow cap tured the glance. It was large but well modeled, and there was a delightfully whimsical twrist to the corners whenever Davy was amused. When it shaped for laughter it Avas even more attrac tive Avith its flash of the straight, Avhiie teeth. There Avas strength in that face, strength and deter mination, as Avell as the reflec tion of a clean heart and unsul lied mind. There Avas good humor in it. Miriam was an observing little person. He cculd be very stern,” she thought Ag dinst her will she found her | v If comparing Davy and Jesson. hoy won; both big men, with Davy a shade the taller, Jesson a trifle the heavier. They were both good to look at, but Davy's wras the tanned and tempered beauty of the open, while Jes son’s was the softer comeliness of the settled places. Jesson, the older by half a dozen years dis played the co.l poise of his o'ass and breeding, while Davy with his quick, enthusiastic speech, his flashing smile, his liglitening iike movements, was like r. fresh breeze from the distant moun taine. Again annoyed at her tell, yet perfectly conscious of a secret elation, Miriam decid'd that Davy was the better looking. Then she tried to put all such thoughts behind her, tried to re sume the si-terly attitude of the eld days. She to’d herself that she had no right to cherish any v e ther emotion. She Jiad prom ised hers.If to Peter .lesson, loyal to her through all the years of waiting. It simply would not do to think much of this solendid looking youth who had leaped in to her life at a bound after the reparation of 35 years. She caught Jesson’s look across t.1 e table and smiled at him, trying to make it, affectionate, wonder ing if she had done so. F.-r some strange reason she was le s sure of herself than ever before. Marsh and Deroux, over their ligars and wine, were talking of the rairoad, and Davy, despite his burning interest in the girl at bis side, listened intent’y. Al ready h 1 had heard the story of the road, from the ve v first davs, the dramatic tale of i s toil’s and struggles as it daunt lessly drove westward, lie ha 1 made up his mind to ask Marsh for a job—anything at which Marsh thought he might be use ful—to give him a part in the work as lit father would have wanted. II s father’s fac ; came lack to him, eyes illuminated wi.h that mystic belief in the future which held him to the 1 our of his death. Davy was silent. a’:uo t forge'ting Miri am, fading into a reve P. Mnr-h was talking about bis vital prob lem. Presen’y Davv caught a f w words that brtdt - the spell of the past. “I flunk I shall ask Mr. Jessou to s'uirt t morrow for the Black Hills,” he was saying. “A week’s airvey should set t’e t.’ e matter one way or the oth< r.” “As you will, my friend,” Davy he. r 1 Deroux reply in h s lea/y, noorant voice. “I si a 1 J-laddy writ Mr. .lessen is Mir; to L>e clie.fp inted, uni’crrtimatel 1 he on y stm’ght line ever th.; black lli.Is is die one the eagles ^ake. ’’ (TO BE CONnNi^aj — -—Z— First Enisne ot sit.
