An Interrupted Siesta.
No man ever had a more eloquent
and beautiful pleader for his cause
than had Dick Gale in Mercedes Cas-1
tuneda. Nell lay in the hammock,
her hands behind her head, with rosy
cheeks and arch eyes. Indied she
looked rebellious. '
Dick was inclined to he rebellious
himself. Belding hud kept the rangers
in off the line, and therefore Dick
had been idle most of the time, and, \
though lie tried hard, he had been
unable to stay far from Nell's vicinity.
He believed she cared for him; hut
he could not catch her alone long
enough to verify his tormenting hope.
He had long hefor^ enlisted the loyal
? Mercedes in Ills cause; but in tpitc of
this Neil had been more than a match
for them both.
Gale pondered over an idea he had
long revolved in mind, and which now
suddenly gave place to a decisi >n that

burn. He went in search of Mrs. Belding,
and found her busy in the j
kitchen.
The relation between Chile and Mrs.
Folding had subtly and ineomnrehensively
changed. He understood her
less than when at first he divined an
antagonism in her. If such a thing
were possible she had retained the
antagonism while seeming to yield to
some Influence that must have heen j
fondness for him. Gale had come to i
care greatly for Nell's mother. Not 1
only was she the comfort'and strength '
of her home, but also of the inhabitants
of Forlorn River. Indian, Mexican,
American were all tbe same to
her in trouble or illness; and then she j
was nurse, doctor, peacemaker, helper, I
She was good and noble, and there was
not a child or grownup in Forlorn
River who did not love and bless her. !
Rut Mrs. Belding did not seen; happy.
She seldom smiled, and never laughed.
There was always a soft, sad, hurt
look In her eyes. Gale often wondered
if there had been other tragedy
In her life than the supposed loss of
her father in the desert.
Mrs. Belding heard Dick's step as
he entered the kitchen, and, looking
up, greeted him.
"Mother." began Dick, earnestly.
Belding called her that, and so did
Lndd and Lash, but it was the first
time vfor Dick. "Mother?I want to
speak to you."
The only Indication Mrs. Belding
gnve of being startled was in her|
eyes, which darkened, shadowed with
multiplying thought.
"I love Nell," went on Dick, simply,
"and 1 want you to let me ask lier
to be my wife."
Mrs. Bidding's face blanched to a1
deathly white. Gale, thinking with
surprise and concern tiny; she was
going to faint, moved quickly toward
her. took her arm.
"Forgive me. I was blunt. . . .
But I thought you knew."
"I've known for a long time," replied
Mrs. Bidding. lier voice was steady,!
and there was no evidence of. agitation
except in lier p illor. "Then you?
you haven't spoken to Nell?"
Dick langhed. "I've been trying to
get a chance to tell her. I haven't
had it yet. But she knows. I hope,
I almost believe Nell cares a little for
me."
"I've known that, too, for a long
time," said Mrs. Bedding, low almost
as a whisper.
"You know!" cried Dick, with a
glow and rush of feeling. "Mother!
You'll give her to me3"
She drew him to the light and
looked with strange, piercing intent*
ness into his face. Gale had never
dreamed a woman's eyes could hold
such a world of thought and feeling.
It seemed all the sweetness of life
...no ,i.nil t>iA rmin.
W?I9 14I1.IV, r
"Dick Gale, you want luy Nell? You
love lier just as she is?her sweetness?her
goodness? Just herself,
body and soul? . . . There's nothing
could change you?nothing?"
"Dear Mrs. Belding, I love Nell for
herself. If she loves iue I'll be the
happiest of men. There's absolutely
t nothing that could make any difference
in me."
"But your people? Oh, Dick, you
come of a proud family. 1 can tell.
You've become a ranger. You love
the adventure?the wild life. That
won't last. Perhaps You'll settle
down to ranching. I know you love
the West. But, Dick, there's your
family?"
"If you want to know anything
about my family, I'll tell you," interrupted
Dick, with strohg feeling. "I've
no secrets about them or myself. M\
future and happiness are Nell's t<
make. No one else shall com t wit!
me."
"Then, Dick?you may have her
God?bless?you?both."
Mrs. Bidding's strained face underwent
a swift and mobile relaxation,
and suddenly she wus weeping in
strangely mingled happiness and bitterness.

"Wli.v, mother!" Gale could say nr!
more. He put his ariu around her. In,
another moment she had gained command
over herself, and. kissipg li'm
slie pushed hini out of the door.

"Now for some spunk!" he said, un j

Plainly ha meant his merry wldsth;
and his buoyant step to Interrupt this i (
llrst languorous stage of the siesta I
which the girls always took during
the hoi hours. But neither f;ir! hear*! v
him. Mercedes lay under the palo ; \
verde, her beautiful head dark and t
still upon a cushion. Nell was asleep \
in the hummock. Her sweet, rod lips, a
with the soft, perfect curve, had ai- c
ways fascinated Dick, and now drew ] I
him irresistibly, lie had* always been J 1
consumed with a desire to kiss her, ; 1
and now he was overwhelmed with his ! u
opportunity. It would he a terrible ! t

at once? No. he would fight the J l
temptation. That would lie more than j j.

slu* opened her eyes. They were sleepy,
yet surprised until she saw liltn.
Then she was wide awake in a second,
bewildered, uncertain.
"Why?you here?" she asked, slowly.
"Large us life!" replied Dick, with
unusual gayety.
"How long have you been here?" i
"Just got here this fraction of a second,"
he replied, lying shamelessly.
"1 thought?I was?dreaming," she
said, and c\;dently the sound of her
voice reassured her. j
"Yes, you looked as If you were
having pleasant dreams," replied Dick.
"So sorry to wake you. I can't see
how 1 came to do it. i was so quiet.
Mercedes didn't wake. Well, I'll go
and let you have your siesta and ,
dreams."
But lie did not move to go. Nell
regarded him with curious, speculative
eyes.
"Isn'i it a lovely day?" queried Dick, j
"Yesterday was finer, but you didn't
notice it." ;
"Oh, yesterday was somewhere ,
back in the past?the inconsequential
past."
Nell's sleepy eyes opened a little
wider. She did not know what to
make of this changed young man.
Dick felt gleeful and tried hard to 1
keep the fact from becoming manifest. I
"What's the inconsequential past?
You seem remarkably happy today."

I>ick turned away then and left the \
patio by the opening into the yard.
-Veil was really sleepy, and when she
had fallen asleep again lie would return.
lie walked around for a while.
Presently, as if magnet-drawn, he retraced
his steps to the patio and en- j
tered noiselessly.

She was inert, relaxed, untroubled by

i brow.
! Again Nell stirred, and gradually
awakened. Iler eyes unclosed, humid, p
shadowy, unconscious. They rested (
upon Dick for a moment before they ^
became clear and comprehensive. He
stood back fully ten feet from her,
and_to all outside appearances re*(i,

"I've interrupted your siesta again,"
lie said. "Please forgive me. I'll take J
myself off." t i '
He wandered away, and when It |
became impossible for him to stay
away any longer lib returned to the j
patio.
The instant his glance rested upon ,
Nell's face he divined she was feign-r(
ing sleep. Dick dropped upon hia1
knees and bent over her. lie wanted ,
more than anything he had ever want- ;

up that pretense of sleep and let 1dm

Then, with a little cry, slie rose and i '

CHAPTER X (
Rojac. i
No word from < Jeor.';e Thome had
come to Forlorn River in weeks. Gale
grew concerned over the fact, and
began t<? wonder if anything serious 1
could have happened to him. Mer- '
cedes showed a slow, wearing strain. '
Thome's commission expired the 1
end of January, and if he could not '
get his discharge immediately, lie 1
surely could obtain leave of absence. !
Therefore, Gale waited, not without 1
growing anxiety, and did his best to '
cheer Mercedes. Tlie first of February 1
came bringing news of rebel activities (
nd bandit operations in and around
2a.sit a, but not a word from the cav- '
ilryman.
A dozen times Gale declared lie ,
could ride in to Caslta and lind out ]
vliy they did not hear from Thorne;
lowever, older and wiser heads pre
alien over his impetuosity. Beldlug
mil the rangers and the Ynqui hold a
consultation. Not only had the Indian ,
leeouie a faithful servant to Gale, hut
ie was also of value to Beldlng. 1
faqiti had all tlie craft of his class,
uid superior intelligence. Ilis'knowl- 1
'dge of Mexicans was second only to
lis hate of thein. And Yaqul, who 1
uid heen scouting on all toe trails,
rave information that made Holding
lecide to wait some days before sendng
anyone to C'asita.
It was upon Gale's coming from this '
(inference that lie encountered Nell.
<ince the interrupted siesta episode '
die had been more than ordinarily 1
dusive. and about all he had received
'roin her was a tantalizing smile from '
i distance. He got the impression
iow, however, that she had awaited
dm. When he drew close to her he '
vas certain of it, and he experienced
nore than surprise.
"Diclc," she began, hurriedly. "Mer odes
is dying by inches. Can't you
see what ails her? It's more than
ove or fear. It's uncertainty?sus)ense.
Oh, can't we find out for her?"
' .Veil, I feel as badly as you about
icr. I wanted to ride to Casita. Bel- (
ling shut me up quick, the last time."
Nell came close to Gale, clasped Ills
trm. There was no color in her face,
ier eyes held a dark, eager excite- i
1.

"Dick, will you slip off without
Dad's consent? Itisk it! Go to Ca- !
iita and find out what's lutppened to
I'horne?at least if he ev >r started |
'or Forlorn Itiver?"
"No, Nell, I won't do that."
Site drew away from liim with passionate
suddenness.
"Are you afraid?"
Tills certainly was not the Nell Buron
that Gale knew.
"No, I'm not afraid," Gale replied, 1
i little nettled.
"Will you go?for my sake?" Like |
iirlitninir her mood changed and she
vas close to him again, hands on his,
ler face white, her whole presence
sweetly alluring.
"Nell, I won't disobey Belding," pro- I
tested Gale. "I won't break my
;vord."
"Dick, It'll not be so bad as that. |
But?what if it is? . . . Go, Dick, j
f not for poor Mercedes' sake, then
'or mine?to please me. I'll?I'll . . .
rou won't lose anything by going. I
Link I know how Mercedes feels. Just !

vonld save her. Take Blanco'Sol and ,
:o, Dick. What rebel outfit could ever
ride you down 011 that horse? Why, ,
Dick, if I was tip on Sol I wouldn't
ie afraid of the whole rebel army."
Gale could only stare at this transformed
girl.
"Dick, listen! ... If you go?j
f you fetch some word of Thome to
romfort Mercedes, you?well, you will
lave your reward. Dick, will you go."
"No?no!" cried Gale, In violence,
struggling with himself. "Nell Bur:on,
I'll tell you this. To have the I
eward 1 want would mean pretty
tear heaven for me. But not even
"or that will I break my word to your
father." -?
She seemed the incarnation ? gIrish
scorn and willful passion.
"Gracias, senor," slit* replied, mockngly.
' Ailios." Then slie Hushed out
>f ids sight.
Gale went to his room at once, disturbed
and thrilling, and did not soon
recover from that encounter.
The following morning at the breakrast
table Nell was not present. "She's
ii one of her tantrums lately," said '
Holding. "Wouldn't speak to me this
nornlng. Let her alone, mother.
She's spoiled enough, without running '
after her. She's always hungry. She'll 1
ie on hand presently, don't mistake *
me." |1

1. How to Inherit Eternal Life (vv. .
13-2S). !;
1. The Lawyer's Question (v. 2fl). ; >
"Lawyer"' here means one versed in I t
-eliglou.<? law?the Script ires. This j t
Joes not mean lawyer in our modern i c
sense of that term. It would more | ?
aetirly correspond to a theological (
professor. The lawyer's object was i,
lo trap Josus?to induce Him to take i .
3uc-h a stand as would weaken His influence
as a teacher. lie expected
lesus to set forth some new cere- |
monies wliich would conflict with or
disparage the law.
2. Jesus' Question (v. 20). Thodgh
Tesus knew the motive of the lawyer !
He did not evade his question. He ,
sent him to the law?the field which
was familiar to him. He thus was !
robbed of his own weapon.
3. The Lawyer's Reply (v. 27). He
made an intelligent answer declaring
that the entire content >f the law
was embraced in love to God and man. |
rids expresses the whole of human !
duty.
4. Jesus Reply (v. 18.) This
straightforward answer nent to the
heart of the lawyer. Per, ect love to
God and man is truly the way of life.
N*o man has yet had or can'have such
love. His sinful condition precludes
Its possibility. Man's failure to measure
up to this requirement is bis condemnation.
The lawyer keenly felt
this thrust. He was defe ited on his
jwn grounds and convicted of
?uilt.
II. Who Is My Neighbor (w. 29*7).
1. The Lawyer's Que:stS)n (v. 29).
This question reveals the insincerity
of the lawyer. Christ's answer had
reached his conscience aid now he '
seeks to escape the difficulty by-asking
a captious question. Lawyer-like ,
he sought to get off by raising a ques- )
tion as to the meaning of words.
2. Jesus' Answer (vv. 30-37). Christ's !
reply more than n n.swore 1 the law- ')
yer's question. In the parable of the ]
Good Samaritan lie makes clear who
is a neighbor, and also what it means ]
to be a neighbor, or what loving a j
neighbor means. Christ's answer had j
u double meaning. He not only made )
clear w1k> is my neighbor, but made j
it clear that the lawyer was not play- J
ing thr neighbor. He thus was con- j
vlcted of not having been a neighl>or.
r ;j
(1) Who is my neighbor! This des- ]
titute and wounded inan left on the 'i
highway by the robbers is the man 1
who needs a neighbor. My neighbor,
therefore, is the one who needs my'?j
help, whether ho lives next door or .;
On the outside of the world. Those j
who have the Spirit of Christ can see .j
their neighbors on e\ery hand, j
(2) What being a neighbor means, .j
Our supreme concern should not be )
"Who is my neighbor?" but "Whose -j
neighbor am I?" To he a neighbor is J
(a) to see those about us who need j
help (v. 33). Love is keen to discern )
need. We should be on the lookout -j
for those in need of our help, ji
(h) Have compassion on the needy -j
(v. 33). Christ's compassion was ;
aroused as He came into contact with -j
those who were suffering and in need. )
All those who have Ills nature will -j
he likewise moved, (c) Give to those 'j
in need (v. 34). Many are willing to *j
give money to help the poor and needy, J
but are unwilling to personally minis- \
lt?r lO LI1UII1. ^lilliv nmtro liic jJtri^unai <
touch Is more important than the ma- .
terlal aid. Wo should give ourselves
as well as our money. (1) Bind up ,
wounds (v. 34>. (e) Set the helpless J
ones on our beasts while we walk i
(v. 34). This is proof that love is
genuine. Christians will deny them- i
selves in order to have something to J
give to those who have need. Tills i
kind of sympathy is gm.tly needed !
today, (f) Bring to the irn and take l
care of the unfortunate (v 34). Gen- \
ulne love does not leave its: service in- i
complete. Much Christian service is j
spasmodic, helps and then leaves a '
man to take care of hlmsel(g) Give J
money (v. 35). It costs i. good deal ?
to he a neighbor. Love is the most '
expensive tiling in the woild. It cost
God His only Son. It cost Christ ITIs
life. May we go and do likewise! |
