When John Moreland and Ben Lit-
gJeford had Hnlabed their breakfast
there In the dining room of the Dials--dell
they drank tho water from thfir

death tho wnjter who snickered ond
gound tho way to the lobby '
To Llttleford the mlnutei dragged
aeoddenly Finally he told Moreland
pn s sentence tilled with double nega-
tives that too could bear tbe suspense
no longer and proposed that they let
out at once for Doctor Braeiner’s hos-
pital The hotel manager overheard

Ben Llttleford was quiet for Ive
minutes more er leas Then he again
proposed to Jobs Moreland that they
go to tho boipltsj to see Hebe More-
land refused flatly and accompanied
his refusal with on unmlotakshle look
of contempt
“You're ai restless ns a dawg in a

They walked for two block! in si-

ened somewhat
“1 shore caln’t 'onderatnad Ben" he
drawled “bow Hill Dale ever could

mindedly as though be hid not bard
—whir- Bill Dale li at? Its mighty

"It was beef”

“Don't ye reckon" Hared John More-
land "’that 1 know i dang cow’s neat

They bad halted In the middle of A
stream of pedestrians A policeman
crowded hla way to tbem
"Move on 1” he growled
BUI Hale wu at that moment enter-
ing tbe lobby of the Blalsdetl with
Atobert McDaurln at hie side Dale
bad Just told Mcbaurln that he meant
to go to Cincinnati to borrow money
from bis wealthy friend Harris Then
hlcLaurln told Dalo something that
saved him the Journey to Glnctnnatl
“You haven’t heard about Harris
Util? I'm sorry because ho would
bave accommodated you He went
broke a few days ago In the cotton
smash He was here yesterday and
left last nlglit for Ulncy”
Dale did mot try to conceal Ms sur-
prise and disappointment Harris for

vel Til hove to try somebody here

"You’ll Ond him at home” McLaurln

Ttoen bln voice came over the wire
with am almost ominous calm

quickly “He went over It years ago
Ask him about tbe coal la David More-

Hale waited patiently for tlfteen
minutes Then tbe clerk called him

AVheatley began cordially! “Your fa-

Dalo was Jubilant Hero wag t rare
stroke of good fortune He went to
McLaurln— w too had not yet found
Joton Moreland and Hen Llttleford—
and told him about It McLaurln wu
almost as happy sa Dale over It A
bellboy appeared like n Jack-ln-the-toox
In the center of tho Hour “Ills toll
Catolyle l)nle 1 Mlstoh (Johlyle Dale!"
Dale wheeled "¥611?”
"Wanted linniejltly at Doctoh Urae-
meti'i hosplttle sub I”
Dale shook bunds with McLaurln
and hurried toward the street
A few mlnutei later Doctor Uraemer
met him in tbe reception room
"Vhat'a wrong doctor 7”
TTht surgeon beckoned "Come with
me"
Mo turned and led the way through
long corridor ind to a sunny white
room wbere Untie Hlttleford lay with
bandage about her temples Hen Lilt-
tleford woe on bis knees it tote
daughter's bedside he was slowly
wringing his big rough handi and beg-
ging piteously to be forgiven
Uabe stared it blm a trllle coldly
Hhe had not yet seen the two men who
stood In the doorway Then oho In-
terrupted her father i
—You toush pap and go away I’d
told ye a huaderd times about Ightla’

head He had beeu made a broken
man In one day
Uo out to your frleud Moreland”
smiled the doctor “and wait there for
n little while”
Babe's father walked unsteadily out
of ttoe room Dale went to Doctor
Braemer and whispered “isn't she go-
ing to make It 7“ anxiously
“Certainly she’s going to make It"
Braemer assured him “do on she
wants to see you"
Dalo drew a chair up close to tbe
white bed and sat down Habe’a eyee
lighted at once and she pat a hand
uncertainly out toward Mm Dale took
tho band In Mss He saw that It waa
little pale under Ita delicate ranhum
“Hlad to see you Habe“ he told her
aoftly "Why do you think you’re go-
ing to die Babe 7”
Bhe untied at Mm "Why I don't
think I’m a-goln to die” sbo laid “1
know I’m a-goln’ to live BUI Dale
1 feel like 1 could walk titty miles
right now 1”
“But 1 heard you tell your father — '
“1 wu a-tryln’ to skeer him out o’
fightln’ any more” ehe Interrupted
'And 1 believe 1 'bout done It don’t
you?”
Dale was relieved T do Is there
anything you want Babe? If there Is
I'll get It for you If It's in the uni-
verse” The universe?” she repeated inquir-
ingly "Whet's tbe universe Bill Dale 7
Somethin' to eat 7"
Tbe world tbe sun the moon and
the atars”
She smiled at him again “No” she
said "the’ ain't nothin' 1 want and
ain’t nothin’ ye can do fo’ me A
reckon" '
“But 1 thought as they sent for
me—”
Babe Llttleford's Ungers held tightly
to hiss “It was mo that sent to’ you’
8he turned her face the other way
T wna so lonesome Mill Dale I”
Uobert BdcLaurln's wife Patricia
visited Babe twice dally and a frlend-
ihlp that was nonp tbe leas warm for
being unique sprang up quickly be-
tween them Patricia declared to ber
husband tbat she was going to keep
Habe— whom she was already calling
by ber proper name tha same being
Mllsabeth — and educate her There
was room la the bungalow Patricia
mid nod she really needed company
because Bobby was away so much
Babe accepted little Alra McLaurln’s
offer no soon as Bill Dale convinced
her that she wouldn't be merely an ob-
ject of charity The hill pride's first
law Is that one must pay for what
too gets— and It’s probably the Drat
law Clod laid down for old Adam In
Eden Ben Llttleford seemed bewil-
dered and blue when they told him of
tho arrangement but he voiced no ob-
jection Dalo preseed upon him a
loan ef a hundred dollars and or-
dered him to give It to Ms daughtar
which he did Elizabeth Llttleford of
course would need new clothing
“1 ain't even got any dresses at
borne ihe whispered to Patricia "hut

Bill Dale was sure now that he
loved Hade and ho waa almost sure
tbat sbe’eared for him But ha wus
quite properly la no haste to come to
an understanding Ha had known nil
along that Dube would have to be
educated! and a woman's tastes he
reasoned might change wit)) educa-
tion And he wanted ber to have the
onnortunlty of knowing other men of

with a lasting love' ho didn't want
ber to love him at all

Major I rad lay and fl-lwderun Goff
When Bill Dale the expert mining
man Mayes and the two mountaineers
stepped from t short passenger train
at the Halfway switch they were ap-
proached by the moonshiner Deck
and a man whom Dole bad never aeen
before He was tall snd his bearing
was erect saod soldierlike though he
was every day ef sixty years old
Mil eye a were bins and twinkling with
everlasting good humor his gray
mustaches and Imperial were exceed-
Ingly welt cared for his teeth were
his own and ns white os a school-
girl's and they bora out hla general
air of neatness He waa plainly
Southerner of the old type
"Who'o tbat?” whispered Dale to
John Moreland
But Bdoreland didn’t hear He ran
forward with hla right band out-
stretched snd so did Ben Llttleford
Men could not hsvs greeted a brother
with more gladness Dale thought
"HI thar Major Bradley!’ the hu-
man cried "And bow d'ye come on
today 7—
"I un very well gentlemen ttoank
you” eald tbe major smiling
Ho shook their hands heartily "The
trainmen gave ns your message yester-
day” be wont on still smiling “and
we were delighted to learn that the
young woman was out of danger I
trust you are nil In good health gen-
tlemen'’ They assured blm that they were
Moreland turned to Introduce Bill Dale
and the mining man From the mo-
ment that Major Bradley gripped
Dole's band they were friends
Mighty glad to know you slrt”
exclaimed tbe old lawyer 'T've been
hearing a great deni about you sir
over lu the valley of the Doe They
seem to think there’s nobody just like
Bill Dale! It was Bill Dale tills
and Bill Dale tbat It was 'Here's
wbere BIU Dale whipped Black Adam’
or 'Here's whera H1U Dale was stand-
ing when such-aud-such happened or
Here’s where Bill Dale crossed the
fence 1’ ’
Hah-hah-hehl” sluggishly laughed
By Heck who stood leaning on the
nvuzile of his rifle "Bill Dalo Is all
right major ye've shore got my word
to' that”
The others laughed Tben John
Moreland said they’d better be mov-
ing or they’d be late for dinner
When they had put a hundred yards
of David Moreland’s mountain behind
them tbe old Southerner tugged slyly
at Dale’s sleeve and whispered
'Let ill fall behind a little If you
please I want to apeak -with you
privately"
They began to lag and soon there
waa a distance of several rods be-
tween them and the others
I heard through Addle Moreland”
began Bradley hla friendly hand on
the younger inan’ai arm “about you
and what you're planning to do for
the Morelands I tell you sir I
thanked heaven tor your coming and
you may count on me to help In any
way I can The Morelands an quite
friendly to me now though up to the
middle of Inst summer they didn't like
me any too well because I made Ben
Llttleford's cabin nay home when out
here
“It was a simple thing that brought
us together John Moreland's little
nephew was lost In the woods and his
mother was frantic There are pan-
thers you know and wildcats rattlers
and copperheads I was fortunate
enough to find the boy anil carried
Mm home ’A’hat was all X'hey’re a
fine people xny boy and so are the
Llttlefords Good old English blood
that somehow wandered off There's
no purer cleaner blood In America
sir
“And now — how ore you getting
along with your plans for the opera-
tion of the coal mine?"
Excellenfiy" answer---1 Dale “We
have the necessary finance a geared
locomotive and cars u'nd light steel
rails have been bargained tor”
“Good I” Bradley gave Dale a hearty
slap ob the shoulder
“There's something else I wanted to
say Mr Dale" be continued ills
voice grave "You’re nearly certain
to have a barrel of trouble with a
shyster coal man named Henderson
QofT He’a a villain sir if ever there
was one t And he's quite the smooth-
est article I’ve ever seen Be can
make yon believe black Is white It
only you’ll listen to hlui long enough”
“Is he— has he been here recently 7"
Dale wanted to know
He's here now” answered the ma-
jor “He’s been here for three days
and he's been working devilment fast
He was up here last summer trying
to buy the Morelnnd coal for a song
hs knows all the people you see As
soon ns he landed here on this pres-
ent trip he found out about your In-
tentions Then at nlglit he freed
Adam Ball from hla tobacco barn pris-
on and went home with him
"Well By Heck followed them and
did some eavesdropping — poor toy has
his strong points I” the major went
on “Goff learned that Adam Ball’s
father knew about the coal vein long
before David Moreland discovered it
and got lawful possession of the moun-
tain Then Soil made the Balls be-
lieve that they were duo a big share
of tbe proceeds of tbe Morelund coal I
It wasn't very bard to do 1 guess The
Bulls this set at least were originally
lowtanders they took to the moun-
den tains I understand to keep from be-
Ing forced to fight daring the Civil
war"
“OofCs Idea” muttered Dale "Is to
get the Balls to scare me Into selling
Instead of developing eh 7“
"Exactly" nodded old Bsradley
“Then he would settle with the palls
by giving them a dollar or two a day
for digging coal perhaps be would
put them off until the mine was
worked out for half of that aad then
skip Anyway Gofif would come out
at the big end"
"1 see” said Dale
"If there’s anything that 1 can do
at any time you won’t hesitate to let
me know?” said the tnsjor
"You may consider yourself attorney
and legal adviser for the Moreland
Ooal company of which I bave the
honor to be general manager” smiled
Dale “If you will"
Major Bradley’s voice came happily
“My dear boy I am glad to accept I
And there shall be no charge for any
service that I may render"
They were not long In reaching tha
green valley which lay very beauti-
ful and very peaceful in the warm
light of the early July eun The soft
murmuring of the crystal river and
the low slow tinkling of tbe cowbell
made music that was sweet and pleas-
ing Suddenly John Moreland stopped
uttered a swearword under his breath
turned and went back to Dale
"The’s a man a-waltln’ on us ahead
thar BIIL" he drawled “’at ye shore
want to watch like a hawk to keep
him from a-stealln’ the eyeteeth out
o’ yore head His name Is Header-
son Goff and he wants coal”
They went on Soon they met a
man who in clothing and manner
made Dale think of stories he had
heard and read ot Mississippi river
steamboat gamblers of the long tgo
His eyes were black and as keen aa
a pair of spear-points his mustaches
too were black and they had sharp
upturned ends like those of a MepMs-
to The major had said that he warn
a smooth article he certainly looked
t-
He met John Moreland with an oily
smile and thrust out his band But
Moreland wouldn't see the bind
“Anything ye’ve got to say about
coal” he growled ”ye can say to Bill
Dale thar” pointing with a calloused
thumb "Bill he's the high light o
the whole business and when he
opens his mouth ye can cock yore
head to one aide and listen fo’ gaws-
pel” Golf was delighted to meet Me Dale
of whom he had already heard Dale
had nothing whatever to say They
walked on toward the cabin of the
Moreland chief with Goff keeping up
a running fire of talk concerning the
scenery the climate — anythtog but
coal
At John Moreland’s gate Goff
nudged Dale with an elbow and whis-
pered :
“Meet me at one o'clock down there
where the big sycamore lies across
the river I've got something to tell
you that will Interest you”
‘I want you Littlaforda lo b®
os good tormo with your neigh-
bor® tho Morelands"

FACTS ABOUT MILK AS FOOD
Ae an Article of Diet There Are Meny
Things That Are Not Properly
Understood
The use of milk as a food has been
so extensively exploited by the milk
Interests that there exists a somewhat
erroneous Ides about It which a
cent speaker before the American Ped-
iatric society Is endeavoring to cor-
rect These errors principally concern tha
group of children between the ages of
1 and 6 years These errors might be
classified under the headings: (1J
Prolonged use of milk as an exclusive
article of diet (2) Increased quan-
tities of milk given along with other
foods
Milk might not only be used too
long as an exclusive article of diet and
In excessive quantities with other
foods but Its nutritional value might
be Injured by boiling
The laity were taught and rightly
so that milk was an Ideal breeding
place for germs and that the growth
of these germs might be Inhibited hy
keeping the milk on Ice er the milk
might be brought to a boll The use
of boiled milk was becoming more
prevalent and many Injuries to nutri-
tion occurred
