Th* Hideout.
Tlie row tliat had culminate^ at
iia Waterline ranch, rnillntc In the
trouble between IMlmaoll iinri Wyutt,
Lad brewed steadily. There had col
lected. besides IMimsoll’s riders. Hutch
Parsons. Hahn and others of I’llm-
loll's following who had been forced
from their livelihood ns gamblers.
They still hung together, waiting for
Pllmsoll to make u clean-up of his
horses nnd move to places where they
were less discredited.
Pllmsoll had lost caste as a leader.
His moods were morose or bragging.
His ascendancy was gone. The crowd
clung to him like so many leeches,
waiting for a split of the proceeds of
the sale of horses that no one ap
peared eager to buy In quantity.
Heady cosh was short. There were
frequent quarrels; through It all there
worked the leaven of Wyatt's Jeal
ousy, fermenting steadily.
When the split came, after an all-
night session with cards and liquor,
following the refusal of a dealer to
buy the herd. It was not merely a
matter between Wyatt and IMImsoll.
Rides were taken and the weaker
driven from the ranch. Preparations
were made for departure.

Cookie was a willing rascal and a
natural adept at the double-cross. He
raised no objections and the trap was
set and sprung.
“You go ahead. Cookie, and open
up the gate,” said Pllmsoll. Hahn

I. His Name. (John 1:42).

Kansas City, Mo.-"I was left ina
very serious condition after child oirtn
land no one thought I
c could ever be any
better. Then came
the ‘Change of Life’
and I was not pre
pared for what I had
to suffer. I had to
f o to bed at times to
e perfectly quiet as
I could not even
stoop down to pick *
anything from the
floor. I did not suffer
any pahl^but I waa
decidedly nervous and could not sleep.
Foe nearly two yeara I was this way,
and the doctor was frank enough to tell
me that he could do no more for me.
Shortly after this I happened to see in
a newspaper an advertisement of Lydia
EL Pink ham’s Vegetable Compound. In
a few days the medicine waa in ths
bouse and I had begun its use and I took
it regularly until fwas well. I recom
mend the Vegetable Compound to others

was no longer the leader and he knew

of authority that an ojien quarrel
with Hutch might shatter. Hutch was
a bully, but Pllmsoll respected his
shooting. And Huhn sided-with him.
The cook .did jiot count. ' . -
Pllmsoll carried with 1 him a fine pair
of binoculars and, as they rode leis
urely on and readied a vantage point,
he swept the tumbled horizon for
signs of any strange riders. It was
the caution of habit as much as ac
tual fear of u raid.
At times Pllmsoll rode aside from
the trail to a ridge crest for wider
vision. At lust, coming up the pass
of Willow creek, he sighted Molly nnd
Donald with Grit trotting beside them.
It was the dog that confirmed his
first surmise. He had heard that
Molly had returned, but lie had not
dared a visit to the Three Star. Who
the rider with her was he did not

The return of Hutch and Hahn

While they might allow him some per

He cut short Butch’s boast of the
way they had scared young Keith.
Both Hahn and Parsons felt a coil of
embarrassment at the silence, almost
the serenity.-.of their captive. They
had expected her to act far different

almost abashed them.

"Keep your eyes peeled—n Cookie.”
Pllmsoll said In a lower voice as the

his anus piled with provisions. "He

The callous reference to her as If
she was something Inanimate chilled
Molly. If only she had a gun! She
had laughed at Donald’s tenderfoot
insistence upon carrying the one he
hod brought West us a part of bin

The cook’s too well thrown rope
would haye probably thwarted any
move of hers If she had had a weapon.
Her fingers crept up toward hei
