4 The Quality Tea "SMMR ORANGE PEKOE 70^ OF REVENGE BY JAeKSON*COLE Synopsis Chapter XXXVII: After setting fire to a shed on Chris Pringlc's farm, Bartle hurries to the slieriff and shows him a paper which he tells him was thrust at his door by El Caballcro Rojo. The note reads, "Pringle is Next." CHAPTER XXXVIII "What you think don't make a durn bit of difference to me, Bar- tie. This isn't the first time you've been making wild accusations eith- er. You busted in here accusing cattlemen of doing the things that happened at the Chapman and Ran- some farms. Now you're throwing in with everybody who thinks that El Caballero Rojo is somehow â€" " "Working for beefmen, yesi" fumed Bartle. "And they're set to trckle the Pringle farm next, and here you sit and â€" " "Can't you see you're not talk- ing sense, Bartle?" Lande blasted. "If beefmen meant to land on the Pringle place, why in all tarnation would they warn you about it, knowing you've got such a rep for taking sides with the tobacco men?" * ^ » "I don't know," snapped Bartle. "But there it is. They did. I'm letting the law handle the riddles â€" if they can't handle anything else." "What wouid you do if you were wearing this badge right now? Lande asked bleakly. "I'd get out to the Pringle place plumb pronto! This warning came from somebody who knows the plans of somebody else â€" that's sure. l"his io a good chance to learn just who has been raising all the ruc- tions in the valley, because sooner or later whoever it Is will sure attack the Pringle place." "Unless," Lande drawled dryly, "this warning is only to draw me io the Pringle place while the devil %ad all is being raised somewheres •lee." She's the image of you in her petticoat-whirl dress!

ISSUE 18 1948 Bartle stalked to ihe door. "You're the law," he snapped. "What you do and what happens next is your looko t. It was my duty to give you this paper and tell you what r saw. I can't do anything more about it. Good night." He stamped out angrily, but in- . ardly was elated. Lande would get men together all right. They would ride t'' the valley. "Lande'll post men when he gets to the fire at the Pringle place," he mused, "And since El Caliallero Rojo will probably come there too. And he'll find himself under the guns of the law." As well as his plans seemed to he working, however, now tliat he had successfully set them in motion. Bar- tle was uneasy when he got back to the bank, prepared to spend the night there. For he knew that until he looked upon EI Caballero Rojo's dead body he would not feel safe p.gain. • • * When he did know the outlaw 3 dead, then he could continue operations. He would bring set- tlers in at top I rices; drive them out at bottom prices; hide behind a curtain of wrath, and keep sus- picion pointing at cattlemen. "It can't fail," he thought. "That outlaw now is the only stumbling block. But now everybody is help- ing me to get rid of him. Clark Weber is hunting him. Lande will have men watching for him. Ilas- k 11 has sworn he will drill him on sight. And I'll see to it myself that every tobacco farmer in the valley is posted to watch for him. He can't escape for long." He sat down at his desk and be- gan to thumb the pages of his ledger. "Let's sec," lie mumbled. "Pringle owes me a thousand dollars, due next Tuesday. He can't sell tobac- co ashes. He'll be here tomorrow t' plead for time. I'll cry on his shoulder and tell him how sorry I am, but that I must have the money. I'll give him sixty days. Handled right, I ought to convince him it's best for him to sell out instead of going deeper into debt for a new shed while he raises another crop. The thing to do â€" " • • * He reached fOr a small file box. It contained the names and ad- dresses of people all over the coun- try who were interested in buying farms in the West, liartle wrote letters to several of them. His writ- ing completed, he got up and stood by the window. Then, in the dimly lighted street, he saw something that narrowed his eyes and tightened his mouth. Chris â-  Pringle! The old tobacco farmer was stopping men, speak- ing to them briefly. Then the far- mer cut diagonally across the street, heading straight for the bank. Bartle opened the door to his knock. liut when the old man en- tered he looked more angry then dejected. "You haven't seen Sheriff Lande around anywhere, have you, Mr. Bartle?" he blurted. "I've been hunting him all over town, but nobody knows anything about him." • • « Bartle was unpleasantly surpris- ed. "He â€" he's not out at your farm?" "Ain't seen him or any of hit men," he snapped. "And a fire out to the farm, too." "Did the fire do much damage?" Bartle asked. "No. It didn't. We caught It in time." He did not see the banker's blank expressipn ai h« turnad. "Well, guess I'll gat on and try again to locate that gallivanting sheriff." "Lande lurely must be at your place by now," Bartla Mid hurried- ly. "I'll ride homa wftli you and talk turkey to him. I'm golns to take action mora than aver froiO now on to protapt you mM I brought out hara." (To Ba Contlnuad) Sunday SchssI Lesson Nehemiah Rebuilds Jerusalem Nehemiah: 4: 1-0 13-14, 21-23- 6: 15-16.

Your Handwriting By Alex S Arnott and You Timidity Uppermost At Time of Writing Dear Mr. /\«nott: Although very busy at the store which I ope 'e 1 always look for your column as soon as tlie paper arrives. I am looking forward to a complete analysis of my hand- writinK. * ♦ ♦ Sincerity i.>! the basis of your handwriting and tliis is the promin- ent faclor tliroURliout your script. It is evident, tliercfore, that you are an idealist, with deep feeling for all things reverent. Nobility ot thought and action i.s indicated by all the high reaching stem letters 'A', 'h', 'V and 't' and tliis is anotlter indication of sincerity of purpose. ("â- enerosity is sliown in several features of your writing, meaning recognition for the needs of others, and broad-mindedness to overlook their faults. Basically, there is tlie spirit of co-operation for the bene- fit of all clearly marked. » t » The cramped letter 'n' reveals modesty and timidity. This is not to be interpreted as fear, but as an absence ot aggressiveness. 1 say 'fear' hecausc the openings of all t! e letters 'd' show that you wish to be frank with others and otiiers to he frank witli you even though it may be to your personal disad- vantage at the time. ' Thoughts a!)out physical devel- opment arc shown in the small let- ters 'p'. Independence is part of your makeup and you are capable of making decisions and of selt-rcli- ance. There is evidence too, of sen sitiveness partly controlling inde- pendence. ♦ ♦ ♦ Although there is ambition to do many things, there is also a suprcs- sion of desire shown, and tliis was uppermost in your mind at the time of writing. Apparently there is one thing which you wish above all others and this vish is being held in check either through des- pondency or personal pride. The suppression of desire and the sl'.ght despondency are not a permanent part of your personality although they were an expression of feeling at the time [ writing.

Cosy Cookery To cook potatoes well, without breaking them up, is a vital matter for homcmakers in Britain, rationed to three pounds weekly. It seems cosy cookery is not, as you might imagine, cooking in a nicely heated kitchen under pleasant conditions, but just another fuel-saver for Bri- tain's lionicniakcrs. "Cosies," which fit over saucepans, kettles or cas- seroles, are made of old felt, blank- et, tweed material or curtain serge. Double material is used and a thick layer of newspaper inserted be- tween the tv.'o pieces of cloth. The result is a "cosy" wilich is some- tlnng between a soft dish cover and a fez. Hcre'.s liow it works. After two minutes l)oiling, the saucepan is put under the cosy and placed on heat- retaiiiing material, such as a wood- en table or thick pad of newspapers. The food cooks geiUly without spoiling and will keep hot for hours. Tintype Styles Again and again one hears the question asked as to why women are back to tiiUype fashions and the fashions of the turn of the century. A psychological rea,on underlines all changes of fashion. Many in- terpret this return to fashions of a half century ago an expression of the world's wish for the security wliich was present in that era. True or false, as may he that reasoning, it is a fact that the camisole, the back-swept skirt, the lace jabot, the swishing taffetas and petticoats are here, riglit in your own closets to- day. Just as the rebuilders of the Temple of Jerusalem had been har- as.>ed and tiiwarted ir their efforts to complete the work on the House of God, till labo. â-  of Nehemiah and his workers to rebuild the city'? ruined walls were opposed and their task ridiculed. Hostility crystalized into conspir- acy and the enemie. of the Je>vs banded together to fight against Jerusalem and to hinder the build- ii g of the fortifications. Nehemiah, learning of their lans, continued in prayer to God for strength, and set a watch against his enemies day and nigh; • * * Nehemiah was confronted with grea* danger, and there was a pos- sibility that he would fail in hfs mission though backed by the authority of the king and the powr of Persia. With conspiring faes round about and with a number of weakened, discouraged workers in his ranks, Nehemiah was called upon to show real leadership and con structive statesmanship. « « 4> Nehemiah encouraged his fol- lowers; he planned for them; he inflamed their patriotism; he pro- vided for their safety; he inspired them onward to the best they could do. He himself stood at the fore- fron capable, tireless, trusted, eil-ct- tive. The able-bodied men stood at their tasks, every builder ready to lay down the trowel and take up the sword at a moment's warn>g There were also those who held spears "from the risii}g of the morn- ing till tl- -tai.- appeared". The servants lodged within the city as gua 's by night and laborers dur- ing the day. So the work advanced. The mockers and conspirators in the presence of such zeal and mili- tary preparation dared not attack. * • * At last the work was finished, and the fear within the walls van- ished as mists before the morning sun. The success of Nehemiah's pro- ject was thus a testimony to his heathen enemies that he was a serv- ant of God. Since his work was wrought of God, all their opposi- tion failed. Moo cm tttquette ty "obei; !,ce Q. When meeting on the street, should the man or the woman give the first sign of recognition? A. The woman. â- ;„'.. Q. Would it be perfnissible to answer a formal invitation inform- ally? A. No. The formal invitation in the third person should be answered in the same way. Q. If a girl is carrying a great many packages and meets a man of her acquaintance on the street, who offers to carry them, should she give all of them to him? A. If there are many packages, give him only the larger and heavier ones. If only two or three packages, let him carry all of them. Q. If one drops a napkin or a piece of silver when dining in a public place, what should one do? A. Quietly call the waiter's at- tention to it; he will pick it up and replace it with another. foo U'lli Knlat Htaylni •> The St. Begis Hotel rOKUNTt" Kwtn ttwun tVitt rub Bach, Bbcwet an* TtlrpbMM Slnile.
