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.”

can also do for you. Tnnlac Is for sale

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.

thought

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
