••Well,'* Jmlitli snilTeil, “I don't

there’s a s<|iiare man left on the
ranch! (Jo down to the htink-honse

vors is tired. They take orde‘s from
me and no one else. And hurry. If
you know how. (Joodness knows, you
look as though It would take you half
na hour to turn around!”
“Thank you, ma'am,” said Bud I.ee.
“But you see I had Just told Tre
vors here he could count me out. I'm
not working for \he Blue Lake any'
more. As I go down to the corral,
shall I send up one of the hoys to
take your orders?"—
There was a little smile under the
last words, just as there was a little
smile In Bud Lee’s heart at the
thought of the hoys taking orders
from a little slip of a girl. Inside he
was chuckling, vastly delighted with
the comedy of the morning,
“She’s a sure-enough little wonder-
bird, all right,” he mused. “But, say,
what does she want to butt in on a
man’s-slze Job for, I want to know?"
"Lee,” called Trevors, "you .take
orders from me or nd one on this
ranch. You can go now. And just
keep your mouth shut."
Bud Lee was turning to go nut and
down to his horse when he saw the
look in Trevors’ eyes, a look of con
suming rage. The general manager’s
voice had been hoarse.
‘T»--n you," shouted Trevors, “get
out !”
“(hit out.the swear-words, Trevors."
said Lis* with quiet sternness. “There's
a lady here."
"Lady!” scoffed Trevors. He
laughed contemptuously. "Where's
your lady? That?" and he leveled a
scornful finger at the girl. “A rant
ing tough of a female who brings a
breath of the stables with her and
scolds like a lisli w ile. . . .”
"Shut up!” said Lee, crossing the
room with quick strides, his face
thrust forw ard a little.
"You shut up!" It was Judith's
voice as Judith's hand fell upon Bud
Lee's shoulder, pushing him aside.
“If I couldn’t take care of myself do
you think I’d be fool (Plough to take
over a little Job like running the Blue
Lake? Now—" and with blazing eyes
She confronted Trevors—“if you’ve got
any more nice little things to say, sup
pose you say them to me!"
Trevors' temper had had ample,
provocation and now stood naked and,
hot In his hard e\es. In a blind In
stant he laid his tongue to a won I
which would have sent Bud Lee at
his throat. But Judith stood between
them and, like an echo to the word,
came tin* rebounding slap as Judith’s
open palm smote Trevor's eheek.
"You wildcat!" he cried. And his
two big hands tlew out, seeking her
shoulders.
“Stand hack !” called Judith. “Just
because you are bigger than I am.
don’t make any mistake! Stand back
I tell you!"
Bud Lee marveled at the swiftness

"Y’ou’ve known her a long time,

“Seence she ees horn!” and Jose,
unashamed, wiped a tear upon the

Lee went thoughtfully on his way to
the bunk-house. ‘Tve got orders for
you fellows,” he said from the door
way. “The boss of the outfit, the real
owner, you know, just blew In. I’p
at the house. Says you hoys are to
stick around to take orders straight
from headquarters. You, Benny,” to
ftie cook, "are to have a man’s sire
breakfast ready In a Jiffy:”
Naturally Benny led the clamor with
a string of oaths. What In blazes did
fbe owner of the ranch have to show
up for anyway?—be wanted to know
He accepted the fact as a personal af
front. Who was this owner?—de
manded Ward Hannon, the foreman of
the lower ranch, where the alfalfa
lields were.
Lee explained gravely that the new
comer was some sort of relative of old
Luke Sanford, who had recently ac
quired a Controlling Interest in the
ranch. Ward Hannon grunted con
femptuonsly. “The Lord deliver us!"
he moaned. "Eastern Jasper! One of

"Hon't believe,” hazarded Lee in
differently. “from the looks of our

"Listen to that!" grmited Ward
Hannon. “Softy, hull?" •
“Well," Bud admitted slowly, “looks

"Wouldn’t that choke you?" de

thin, awkward little man, gray in the
service of "real men." “Taking or

"Just a kid," was Lee's further
dampening news. And as he noncha
lantly buttered Ids hot cakes he added
carelessly: "Something of a scrapper,
though. Just put two thirty-two
calibers into Trevors.”
They stared at him Incredulously.
Then Curson's dry cackle led the
laughter,

Judith Puta It Straight
Wrinkled, grizzled old half-breed
Jose, his bands trembling with eager
ness, stood In the smaller rose-garden
culling tJre perfect buds, a joyous tear
running rts zigzag way down each
cheek.

"Trevors is to be hauled axxtiy first

Tommy looked curiously at his su
perior. "On the level. Bud?" he asked
doubtingly.
"on the level, laddie,” was the
quiet response.
And young Burkitt. wondering, but
doubting no longer, hastened with his
breakfast.
The others, looking at Lee’s sober
face questioning!)', fired a broadside

be announced positively. "Lord! Isn’t
that an earful for this time of day?
The real boss I* on the Job: Trevors
is winged; you are to stick •rogral for
orders from headquarters,"
Out of the talk of his eye L 4 ' saw
the swift approach of Bayne Trevors.
The general manager’s face was black
with rage atad through that dark
wrath showed a dull red flush of
shame. He walked with hi* two arms
lax at his sides.
“Give me a cup of coffee, Ben,” he
commanded curtly, slumping Into a
chair. "Hurry!"
Benny, looking tu him curiously,
brought a steaming cup and offered
It. Trevors moved to lift a hand; then
sank back n little further In his chair,
Ids’face txtlsting in his pain. ,
‘Tut some milk In it,” he snarled.
"Then hold it to jny mouth. For the
love of heaven, hurry, man!”
Then no man there doubted longer
■the mad tale Bud I^ee had brought
them. I>own from Trevors' sleeves,
staining each^hand, there had ebmfe a
broadening trickle of blood. Trevors
drapk swiftly, draining the cup.
"Get--this Tout off me,” he com
manded. “(jurse you, don't tear my
arms off! Slit the sleeves."
It was Lee who, pushing the clumsy
cook aside, silently made the two
bandages from strips of Trevors' shirt.
It was Lee xvho brought a flask of
brandy from winch Trevors drank
deep.
Arid then came Judith.
They stared at her ns they might
have done had the heavens opened
and an angel come down, or the earth
split and a devil sprung up. She looked
in upon them with quick, keen eyes
which sought to take every man’s
measure. They.. returned her regard
with a variety of amazed expressions.
Never since these men had come to
work for Bayne Trevors had a woman
so much as ridden by the door. And
to have her stand there, composed,
utterly at her ease, her air vaguely
authoritative, *a vitally vivid being
who might, suddenly, r iiave taken
tangible form from the dawn, bewil
dered them.
"I am Judith Sanford.” she said in
her abrupt fashion, quite as she had
made the announcement to Lee and
Trevors. "This out lit belongs to me.
I have fired Trevors. You take your
orders stjuiigbt from me from now on.
Cookie, give me some coffee.”
She came in without ceremony and
sat down at tin* head of the table. Befiriy
hastily brought the coffee. From .some
emotion certainly net dear to him he
went a violent red. Berliaj s the emo
tion was just sheer embarrassment.
He brought hot cakes -with one hand
while with (he other he buttoned his
gaping shirt-collar over a bulging,
hairy chest.
Men who find finished their break-
fa'vts rose hastily with a marked awk-j
wardiiess and Ill-concealed haste and
went outside, whence their low voices
came back in a confused consultation.
Men who lup] not finished followed
them. In an amazingly short time
there were but the girl, LOe. Trevors
and the cook in the room. Bud Lee.

was following when Judith’s cool
voice said quietly?
"You. Lee. wait a moment. I want
to talk with you.”
Lee Jiesitated.' Then he came back
and uaited.
Tb?-men outside naturally grouped
about the general manager. His angry
voice, lifted clearly, reached the two
in the jootu.
"I’m ‘ fired,” said Trevors harshly.
"As soon as I can get going I aril leav
ing for the Western Lumber camp.
Every one of you boys holds bis job
here because I gave it to him. Do
you want to hold it now, with a fool
girl telling .you what to do? Do you

laugh at you and jeer at you for a
pack of softies and Imbeciles? Or do
you want to roll your blankets and

boss that chicken in there would be.
Now lin going. It’s up to you. Stick

He had said what he had to say
and. cursing when hS shoulder struck
a form m*ar him. made bis way down
to the stables. Burkitt was ahead
of him, going for the team.
"Well, Lee." said Judith sharply,
"where do you get off? Do you want
to stick? < »r shall I count you out?"
"I guess." said Bud very gently,
“you’d better count me 1 out." »
"You’re going Vith that, crook?"
“No. I’m going on my own."
"Why? You’re getting good money
here. If you’re square I’ll keep you
at the same figure."
But Bud shook tils head.
"I’m game to play square," he said
slowly. “I’ll stick a week, giving you
a chance to get a 5 matt In my place.
That’s all.”
"What’s the matter xvlth you?" she
cried hotly. “Why won’t you stay
with your job? Is It because you don’t
want to take orders from me?"
Then Lee liftesl his grave eyes to
hers and answered simply; “That’s
it. I’m not saying you’re not all right.
But I got It figured out, ‘there’* Just
two kinds of Indies. If you want to
know, I don’t see that you’ve got any
call to tie into a man’s Job.”
"Oh. scat !" cried the girl angrily.
"You men make me tired. Two kinds
of ladies. And ten thousand kinds of
men! You want me to dress like a
doll, I suppose, and keep my hands
soft and .white and go around like a
brainless, ohnp^rln# fool 1 There are
J
txvo kinds of ladies, my fine friend:
the kind that can and the kind that
can’t! Thunk God I’m none of you?
precious, sighing, hothouse little
fools!”
Gulping down a last mouthful of
coffee, she was on her feet and passed
swiftly out among the men.
"You men!” she cried, and they
turned sober eyes upon her, “listen to
me! You've heard that big stiff rant;
now hear me! I’m here because I be
long here. My dad was Luke Sanford
and he made this ranch. I was raised
here. It’s two-thirds mine right now.
Trevors there Is a crook and I told hlfii
so. He’s been trying to sell me out,
to make such a failure of the outfit
that I’d have to let It-go for a comic
song. He got gay and I fired him.
He tried to manhandle me and I
plugged him. And now I'm going to
run my own outfit! What have you
gut to say about it, you grumbling old
JfroWh with the crooked face! Put
up or shut up! I’m calling you!”
The men turned from her to Ward
Hannon, the field foreman, who had
been Trevors’ right-hand man and who
now was sneering openly.
“I’m saying It’s no work for a kid
of a girl,” grumbled Hannon. ' “You
run an outfit like this?" He laughed
derisively. "It can’t be did,”
"It can’t, can’t it?" cried Judith.
"Tell me xvhy, old smarty. Spit It
out lively."
Jake Carson’s shrill cackle cut
through a low rumble of laughtej.
“That’s passing it to him straight,"
said the old cattleman. "What's the
word, Ward?”
Ward Hannon shrugged his shoul
ders and spat impudently. %‘T ain't
saying nothing,” he growled, “only
UUs: I got a right to quit, ain't I?
Well, I’m *~qDitting. Any time you
ketch me working for a female girl

off, that can't see a pig stuck ’thout
fainting, that can't walk a mile ’thout
getting laid up, that can't. . .
“Slow up there!” called Judith.
"Didn’t I stick a pig already this
morning, and have I keeled over yet?
Didn’t I ride the forty miles from
Rocky Bend last night and get here
before sunup? Listen to me, chief
kicker: If you’ve got a horse on the
ranch I can’t ride I'll quit right now
and give you my Job! How’s that
strike you? I tell you the word on
this ranch is going to be "Put up or
shut up!’ Which is it, Growly?"
Again the men laughed and Han
non's face showed his anger.
"Mean that, lady?" he demanded
briefly. x
"You can just bet your eyestJ-mean
it!”
Hannon turned toward the stable.
‘All right. We'll see who's going to
put up or shut up!" he jeered over his
shoulder. "Y'ou ride the v Prince just
two little minutes and I'll stay and
work for you!’’

watching her.
“Look but for him now l” he called
warningly.

But Judith, her eyes aflame, whirled
upon Lee, her voice like a whip as she
•mid: “Lee, you keep out of this. The
sooner you learn who’s running things
here the better for you."
“Maybe so," said Lee quietly. “But
don’t you fool yourself you can ride
Prince. There’s not a man on the job
except me that can ride him." It xvas-
not boastfully said, but with culm-us-
•uirunce. "He's an outlaw. Miss Jud

Carpenter last spring, and Jimmy—’’
"Go ahead. Ward." Judith repeated.

Ward went, his eyes filled with
malice. Two or three of the other
men joined their voices to Bud's and
('arson's, expostulating, telling of kliat
fearful nrtng, an outlaw ImYs^ Judith
maintained a scornful silence.
In due time Ward came back. He
was leading a saddled horse, a great,
wild-eyed man that snapped viciously
as he came on. walking with the wide,
spreading stride of a horse little used
to the saddle. Judith measured him
with her eyes as she bad measured
(he men "In the bunkhouse.
“He’s an ugly devil.” she said, and
Lee. at her side, smiled again. But
i he girl had not altered her inten
tion. She stepped closer, looking to

Ward to draw the latigo tighter,*and

Judith laughed. “Look out. Witrd.”
she taunted him. “He's after your

the saddle, the reins firmly gripped.
The Prince, a sudden trembling thrill

and whipped the blind from his red-

“There’s a good boy!” said Judith
coolly. “Buck a little for the lady,
Prince!”
Slowly the great muscle* of
Prince’s leg and shoulder and flank
corded. The trembling passed; he xvns
like a horse carven In bluish granite.
He shook his head a little. Judith,
her hand tightening upon the reins,
held his head well up. the severe ^blt

down betxveen his forelegs.
Then suddenly, without xx arning, the
horse whirled, leaping far out to f th«

watching that the girl knew before the

only thought lay in running away
from the menace upon his hack.
Three minutes later she rode back
to the bunk-house and slipped from
the saddle. Bud Lee, going to her,
had Ids bat in bis hand.
“Now, Ward,” she said quickly, her
breathing hurried, her cheeks red,
“xvhat do you say?”
“I said I’d stick if you rode him,”
muttered Ward. “And—”
“And.” cried the girl with quick
passion, ‘Til tell you something.
You’re a great big-lumbering coward!
Stick with me?” She laughed again,
a new laugh, ringing with.,tier scorn.
‘“‘Here’s your outlaw; I’ve gentled

His fellows laughed at Ward; for
the field foreman was no horseman
and the timoroiis.wav in which he had

brought out this snapping, vicious ani
mal had testified to the fact. He
drew hack now. muttering.
“Hide him !” cried Judith, her voice
stinging him. “Ride him or get off
the ranch ! Which is it?"
Ward Hannon, glad of the opening,
answered surlily: "Aw! think I want
to tak * orders nff’n a woman? You’re,
aright, i’ll get off’n the ranch!”
“That's two down." said Judith.
“Now, take (his horse back to the
