CHIP'S CURE.
Every uow and then a horseman,
bi-oud hatted and be-weaponed, with
jangling' Mexican spurs and leather
"chap" leggings, dismounted, tied his
"cayuso" pony to the gnawed rack,
and joined the group of cowboys
lounging in the shade of Ashburu's
postoffice. With each comer the first
question was:
"How's Chip?"
"No better," Old Man Ashburn re
plied, each time.
"Looks to me like that thar was a
mighty heavy load to put onto a child
like Chip," said Santa Fe, the cowboy,
with the gaudy Mexican sash about
his waist. "A load uv pain an' misery
big enough to break a man down, an'
she nothV but a child !"
' "Yer right, only she h'ain't a child,"
spoke red cheeked Posy; she's
Uow old, Ashburn?"
"Seventeen," Ashburn answered.
"Hanged if I knowed." said Santa
Fo. "Reckon yer right; but I got bo
ust to secin' her amongst us, a-ridin'
the cayuscs an danciii' an' laughin' an'
singin like a happy child, that I'd
plumb fergot she'd growed up."
"Me, too," said Ileddy Uoso.
"I'm mightily afcurd she'll never
ride nur run no more," said Old Man
Ashburn. "Ever sence she was a
throwed she's be'n a-gittin' slowly but
shorely worso an' worse, an' "
"Wal," interrupted Santo Fc, with
grim earnestness, "I h'ain't never be'n
sorry fer the way wo run out o' the
Range the cuss that roped the cayuse
an' got her throwed."
"Nur me 1" cried a cowboy chorus.
At the sound of a faint call, Old
Man Ashburn hastened within the
building. Presently ho appeared,
dragging carefully behind him a
splint bottomed rocking chair, in
which reclined the wasted form of
little Chip, Ashburn's crippled daugh
ter. At sight of her, tho impulsive cow
boys waved their broad hats and went
through the motions of shouting lusti
ly, but very little sound came from
their distended mouths.
"Hello, boys!" tho little cripple
saluted, weakly. "I jest couldn't stay
in there any longer when I heard you
all talking. Pa didn't want me to
como, but I told him"
"She 'lowed," interrupted Ashburn,
'that she'd como out yere if she'd to
crawl on her hands an' knees, an' I
reckon she'd"
"You bet she'd a-done it!" broke in
Santa Fe.
"That's what she'd a-done," agreed
Redtly Rose.
"Ikw nloe ho sunshjno seems 1"
said the little cripple. "I've been
a-thinkin' often that mebby I'd never
P't out into it ag'iu to run an' ride as
ust to. Some way"
"Sant," whispered Posy, "hanged if
I hxtin't sorry wo stopped at ruuuin
out the cuss that got her throwed."
"Me. too!" returned Santa Fe. "Ort
to a killed him then an' thar!"
Rose.
Even the slight exertion, attendant)
upon the short trip from, the little bed
room to the door seemed almost too,
much for Chip's enfeebled frame. Her
faco grew paler, and she eaned. wearjr
ly btick in tho old rocking chair.
"Mebby I'll never see you again,
boys." she piped. "I"
'Old man, interrupted Posy, "you
bettor take her back now."
"But I don't want to go," fto gir
Erotested. "I wanf. to stay an' seethe
oys, an' " -
As easily as if she had been of but
a fviither's weight, Posy took her jr
his strong arms and carried her bat, .
int.) her little bedroom carefully and
very tenderly. His brown pheek was
cIojo to her pale one,
"An who, Chip?" he whispered.
"An' you, Posy," she answered,
softly.
"Boys," Old Man Ashburn was say
ing as Posy rejoined the group about
tho door, "things looks mighty black.
Sh'.'s a - sutferin' an a - sufferin'
an"
Posy rushed to his cayuse, flung
himself into the saddle, and dashed
away across the prairie, followed by
his comrades.
"I couldn't stand it," he told them,
as the ponies bounded away to the
eastward. "I jest couldn't stand to
lier.r that pore ole cuss a-tellin' of little
Chip a-gettin' nearder an' nearder

her!'
"oay," said Santa Fe, suddenly, "we

"You bet!" interrupted Posy. "We
orl. an we will do"
"Thar comes Hank !" broke in Reddy
Roso, as the little mule and faded
buc kboard that comprised the turnout
of Hank Bitters, the mail carrier,
emerged from the distant timbor.
"llank's got a passenger."
Obedient to the touch of the nuge
Me;:ican spurs, the cayuses bounded
tov.ard the approaching vehicle at the
po-v boy's favorite gait, a keen run.
J lank Bitters' passenger, an old
gc::tleman with a phenomenally bald

almost owlish wisdom, had been grow

ever since entering the cattle country.

served to allay any pf his apprehension.

Ho paused and gated thoughtfully
at the tall hat of his companion.
"I've knowed 'em to shoot a states
man jest fer wearin a plug hat!"
"Mv stars!" shivered the nassenirer.
"Knowed wuss'u that W'y, out on

And Hank Bitters luridly pictured
tho depravity of the cowboys of the
Soap river region.
"But surely they would not harm
me," quavered the passenger, "if they
were apprised of my identity ! '
"Which?"
"If they knew who I was."
"Mebby they'd let you off easy," con
soled llank.
"And when we do come in contact
with them, you will do your best to
sootno them?
"I'll do what I kin," returned Hank.
"But it's mighty finnicky business.
And so he worked upon the fears of
his passenger till the old gentleman
gazed apprehensively about, as if he
expectetl to see a dozen fierce cowboys
leap from behind every bush, to make
of his person an impromptu revolver
target. He was nearly ready to cry
out with alarm when, as they emerged
from the timber, he beheld Santa Fe
and his comrades careering towards
them. The yells of recognition with
which they greeted Hank, while still
rods away, sent a great thrill of terror
througn the old gentleman.
"Tell them who I am I" he whispered.
hoarsely. "Tell them I am a man of
peace bound on an errand of mercy 1'
"I'll do the best I kin." returned
Hank, with an inward convulsion.
"But it's mighty risky business!
They're pizon. plumb pizon 1"
As the cowboys circled about tho
buckboard the passenger almost gave
up all nope.
"Tell them!" he whispered to Hank.
That worthy, with a tremendous
wink at Santa Je, called out:
"Uon t be brash, boys! Inis yere

"I hardly"-
"I mean, do you know yer biz? Dp

fears.

"I performed, sir, one of the most

"B'lieve I yeared about that," said
Santa Fe. ''Lowed he'd die, didft't

great credit for my almost miraculous

"Boys," said Posy, "we wanthlm,!"
"lhats what W9 00." agreed Reddy
IWS6.
As the cowboys reached this decision
the party was within a hundred yards
of Ashburn's postoflice,
"Poo," said Posy, "you'll have to
stop yere a while."
The physician's air of gratified pro
fessional pride was instantly super
seded by fear.
"Oh, gentlemen, spare mel" he
Suavcred. "I will not wear it again

" 'Pea ranee uv what?" asked Santa

"Mv hat 'mux?' Ithlnk vou call it!'
Hank Bitters threatened to explode
with delight, but the cowboys never
even smuea. .
The physician was so loath to leave
the vehicle that he had to be dragged
out by rorce.
"Take it easy, doc," soothed Posy.
"We don't mean no harm 1"
Dr. Bristow. little reassured, men

"Chip, this yere is Doc BristoWi

Ashburn followed him out of doors.
and Dr. Bristow was alone with his
patient.
The cowboys were very grave when

"Means you an' Saut, I reckon,

"What'll it be with litt

asked Posy.
"Although her case ia extremely

berately, "with proper nursing and
the care of a skilled physician, she

"An'," interrupted Posy, "the c.
that got her hurt was run off th
Range, but the cuss that kin cure her,
but won't, will never leave the Range
a-runnin' nur no way."
"That's what he won't!" agreed
Reddy Rose.
Dr. Bristow seemed to fully realize
what Posy's words implied.
Next day, long before the hour for
performing the operation tliat was to
end or save Chip s life, the cowbovs
had congregated in tho shade of Asli
burn's postolllce. Posy was not with
them.
"Posy," little Chip was saying, as
she feebly stroked tho rough head
bent above her, if I if 1 don t get
out again, give each of the boys one
of these.
Then she weakly drew from beneath
her pillow as many locks of hair, tied
with little pieces of ribbon, as there
were cowboys in the group outside.
There was one for Posy, also, he no
ticed through the mist of tears that
dimmed his eves.
Little Chip softly stroked Posy's
rougli head, as he bent still lower til
his lips touched hers, and a hot tear
fell on each cheek, lhen, far braver
than he, she turned her face away,
"Good-by, Posy," she said.
"Good-by, Chip."
Ho staggered out of the room, and
dashing tho tears from his eyes, he
grasped tho doctor's arm with a force
that made him wince, and whispered
hoarsely :
"Go in, now, an' an' if her good
by was tho last one, God forgive ye !
This yere iron" half drawing his re
volver "never misses fire, an'
Wal, you'll never go offen the Range I"
Dr. Bristow had made no idle boast
when he spoke of his professional skill.
and all of that skill was called into
action to preserve unsnapped the chord
that bound poor little suffering Chip
to life. When the operation was over
and the crisis past, the great physician
tottered through the door and fell
fainting into Posy s arms.
"Sho is safe! he gasped, as he
opened his eyes.
As if moved by a common impulse.
the cowboys mounted their cayuses
and galloped off across the prairie at
whirlwind speed. Two miles away
they halted, and gave yent to their
rejoicing in yells both long and loud.
A month later, when little Chip was
able to hop about quite smartly on her
crutches, Dr. iJristow asked of .rosy.
of whom he seemed to stand in dread
ful fear, if he might leave for his
eastern home on the following day.
"But, doc, t thought you was keen
to go out on the Cimarron ?"
Nothing was further from Dr. Bris
tow's desire. He told himself that if
he could but return home it would
take a most powerful attraction indeed
tq draw him away from it.
Santa Fe and Old Man Ashburn held
several mysterious conferences, in
which Posy was not invited to take
Sai-t. The result was apparent next
ay. Instead of the faded buckboard.

anus ciiiers arnve.q m a long spring
wagon, which, as Reddy Rose said.
was simply "frorcris" with red paint or
the reddest red; and Hank nimself
was gotten up for the great occasion
"regardless," tn an uncomfortable suit
of new store clothes, topped off by a
collar that persisted in riding his red
neck most outrageously. . clerical
looking personae-e who accompanied
him was salutvi dv the cowbovs with
shouts of "Preacher Blue!"
The cowboys were all in holiday at
tire, and even Old Man Ashburn was
quite "smartly" arrayed. Posy stared
In wonder at the group, but from the
way Utile Chip smiled and blushed, it
was evidently not at all a mystery to
her.
"Posy," began Santa Fe, awk
wardly. "I want to say fer me an'
the boys an' Old Man, yere, that we

and Santa Fe thrust a roll of bills into
the hand of the astonished Posy.
The latter presently essayed to ex
press all his thanks, but the cowboys.
seeing his embarrassment, drowned his
words by wild yells.
After lJosy and Chip had been made
one, Dr. Bristow was the first to be
equal to the occasion. He first pro
posed and earned out tho kissing of
the bride. Ibo cowboys followed suit,
and Posy, still half dazed, was nearl
