It was :1 broiling day in mid-summer at Miner's Flat. The scorchina rays of im V Arizona sun mercilessly sought out every nor-k,a.nd corner of the camp, unobstructed by shade of any kind. Alice Mnrriner thought of the hills and dells, the leafy nooks and rippling waters of her old home in New England as she paused for it mo- ment in the kitchen door. and -looked out upon the broad and sterile plain where not a single tree relieved the monotony of the landscape. It was a dreary, -uninviting spot for a home, and the quick tears sprang to Alice s eyes as a. wave of longing for something difI'erent-something better- thanin this life swept over her. But-they were speedily brushed a.way,_-and the girl turned back to her work in the sweltering little kitchen. I-low foolish of me 1 she thought. Ha.ven t I one of the very best hrothcrs in the world!

My goodness 3 Who's that, I wonder ? exclaimed Alice, hastily substituting a clean `white apron for her flonry kitchen one, and shutting the stove dampers that nothing might burn in her absence. She crossed the little sitting-room, which also ser_ved as dining-room and as Heury s bedroom--fnr this was the land of cot-beds and blankets ,~aud opened the outer door.
