"You will never go back to--to your old life?" Helen questioned, quickly, "Not This I owe to you alone, Helen, It will be possible now for me even to be happy. I have traded two of the horses for Tasker's light wagon. I will take you to the stage line and soon you will. be at Grand Junction." "Wait--please wait!" she called strides, for the gate. But le did not go back. ir v In a moonlit hour that night, late, when the good Taskers had gone to well-earned rest, Jim heard his name called, He ran with swift, noiseless feet to Helen's bedside, "You did not come back," pered, "I cannot sleep.... something I--want to say." He sat down upon the bedside and clasped her hand in his. "Is your real name Jim Wall?" she asked, with more composure. "No. I will tell it if you wish." "Are you a free man?" "Free. What do you mean? free--of course!" "You called me your--your wife to these kind people." "I thought that best. be less curious." : "I was not offended--and I under- stood....I want you to go back to Star Ranch with me." " "But you will be perfectly safe, Someone will drive you from Grand Junction." "Perhaps, Only I'll never feel safe again--unless you are near. I've had too great a shock, Jim. This was my first rough experience." "I can never go back to Star Ranch," he replied, gravely. . "Why not? Because you are--you wire a member of a robber gang? 1 had an ancestor who was & robber baron." "That's not the reason," he said. "What is it then?" If I leave you now--soon as I've placed you in good hands--I can ride of in peace--and be happy in the memory of having served you and love you. But if I went back to Star Ranch--to see you every day--to--" "To ride with-me--"___. "Yes--to ride with you," He went on. 'That'd be a little to much, I'm only human." : "Faint heart never won fair lady," she whispered, averting her face and withdrawing her hand. "Jim, I be- lieve if 1 were you, I'd risk it." A Before 'dawn Jim had beaten his vain and exalted consciousness into a conviction that the heaven Helen hint- ed at for him was the generosity of a woman's heart. But to reassure her he decided he would conduct her to she whis- There is Yes, They would "|" Star Ranch. "Soon they were on the way. A rancher, at whose place Tasker stop- ped, invited them to pass the night at his house. Somehow Jim got through that long ride of suspense, fear and thrills, and when they reached Grand Junction just after dark he got Helen into the little inn before she was recognized. "What do you think Bernie has dene, Jim?" Helen asked at supper that night. "You are richer by ten thousand dollars. Bernie offered it for my safe return." 'I wouldn't take a dollar!" she inquired, with a woman's sweet tantalizing mystery. "Bernie found where Hays sold our cattle, and he forced the buyers to sell back every head, at the price they paid." Every nioment of that ride next day was a joy and a pang. "Home!" Helen whispered as Jim halted the team in front of the ranch-house porch. CHAPTER XXX. At Jim's Halloa Herrick came out on the porch, "By jove--here you are!" was his greeting, as cool and uremotional as if they were return- ing from a day's visit to the village. "Yes, Bernie, here I am--thanks to my escort," replied Helen. "Helen hadn't time to tell me much," Herick said to Jim later. "I want you to tell me it all in detail." "J have all the money, almost to a dollar, Herrick," replied Jim, The Englishman regarded that as of little consequenee and urged Jim to a recital -of the whole affair. . Presently Herrick spoke with some thing of gravity: "Helen told me that I was to keep you at Star Ranch, I hope you won't let this Hays debacle drive you away." 5 "Ipll be impossible for me to stay, rejoined Jim, "But thanks for your kindness." "I'll have you manage the ranch-- give you an interest. Anything--" "Please don't embarrass me fur- ther. 1 can't stay....It's hard to con- by ZANE GREY after him, as he made, with- giant | "Well!

I'll go avay and begin life over again." 'Helen has her own sweet will about everything, If she wants you to stay, you'll stay, that I can d8sure you, Is there any honorable reason why you ought not stay---outside this unfor- tunate attachment to Helen "I leave you to be judze of that," replied' Jim, 'and briefly recited the story of his life. Helen came in to breakfast next morning attired in the riding habit she, had worn on that never-to-be- or By vid day of their ride, * "I'm taking up my ranch life where it left off--with reservations from sad experience," said Helen, as shé took her seat. 'Bernie, we had' to trade Jim's horse, Bay, What can he ride today?" "He may take his choice." "By the way, Jim, I told Tasker to follow at once with our horses. He ought to be here soon, maybe tomor- row." : casually, "But I'll wait till tomorrow. Bay is a horse I hated to part with," "So soon!" exclaimed Helen. '"Ber- nie, could you not induce Jim to stay?" she queried. . : Herrick waved a deprecatory hand, Presently she arcse: "Come, let us ride, We can di::uss it better in the saddle." iy Helen, to Jim's :curprise, took the road back up to th: ranch-house and mounted the trail that led up the ridge, When they zot up among the pines: Jim trotted to catch up with her, But she kept a little ahead. Jim's thoughts lccked around one astounding fact--this was the trail they had ridden down, after that en- counter when he h:d kissed her. Helen halted haltcd her horse under the very pine where they had stopped "to listen to the hounds and cowboys racing up the ridge after the deer. "My sense of dircction seems to be all right," said Helon. '"Helen, I fear it's better than your sense--of kindness, let me say...... "Please look at my cinch," she re- plied, coolly. Jim dismounted, more unsure of himself than ever in any of the many crucial moments of his career. He did not understand a woman. He could only take Helen literally. Her saddle cinch was all right, and he rather curtly told her so. "Then--maybe it's my stirrup," she went on, lightly, as she removed her booted and spurred foot. "Well, I can't see anything wrong with that, either." : Something thudded on the ground. Her. gloves and her sombrero. But they surely had not fallen. She had flung them. A wave as irresistible as the force of the sea burst over him, But he looked up, outwardly cool. And as he did her ungloved hand went -to his shoulder. "Nothing--the matter with--your stirrup," he said huskily. "No, After all it's not my.cinch-- nor my stirrup....Jim, could any of your Western girls have done better than this?" "Than what?" "Than fetching you here--to this .place--where it happened." $ "Yes. They would have been more merciful." "But since I love you--" "You are mad," he cried. "And since I want you--presently --to behave somewhat like you did that day." : He reeled under that, The truth was almost overwhelming. The strong, earnest light of her eyes told more than her words. Her pallor had yan- ished. - She was no longer cool. "Jim, you might 'have saved me this, But perhaps it is just,as well, You are laboring under some delusion that I must dispel....I want you-- ask you to stay." "If you are sure--I will stay. Only, for God's sake, don't 'let it be any- thing but--but--"' "Love," she added. "Jim, I am sure, If I were going back to England, I would want you to go, just the same. It's what you are that has made me love you. There need be no leveling. I lived years down in Robbers' Roost. That changed me--blew the cobivebs out of my brain. West and you are alike, I want both." "But I am nobody. I have nothing," he cried haltingly, "You have everything a woman - her safe.

Russians Will Learn English By New System Moscow.--Ivy Litvinoff, English wife of Maxim Litvinoff, Soviet Rus- sia's Commissar for Foreign Affairs, is going to take up school teaching on a large scale this fall. Impressed by a simplified system of teaching Eng: lish recently developed in her home land, she has arranged to introduce it here and to hold regular classes this winter at several Moscow institutions of higher learning. She became acquainted with the new method while she was in Londin with her husband for the World Econ- omic Conference, . So enthusiastic: is Mme. iLtvinoff over the possibilities she envisions for equipping Russian you with an ade- quate working knowledge of her mother tongue that she has spent most of her time since returning from Lon- don preparing for her work. She will receive the standard teacher's salary, amounting to approximately $35 a month, In the small summer cottage on the outskirts of Moscow, where she and her two children pass the hot days in th: shade of a pine forest, she is busy most of the time preparing charts and illustrations for her. classes. Mme, Litvinoff, who fills the role of the Soviet Union's "official hostess," always has taken a leading but incon- spicupous part in the educational and cultural life of her adoptew country. She-is one.of its. outstanding:spon- sors.in the development of the arts. Occasionally she writes criticisms of plays and books for periodicals, but most of the time hér activity is behind the scenes, and she rarely is in public eye. --lt Official Functions in Washington to be Friendly, Not Formal Washington.--I1f White House func- tions are described as "brilliant" this winter, it will Le because of the pres- ence of diplomatic uniforms, not be- cause of costly appointments, So Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt told her press conference in outlining the changes that will take place, in the round of official entertaining soon to be announced. ' The whole scheme willbe simpler, she said--fewer guests at any one re- ception; no luxuries served at official dinners; and no "wasting of money for pure show when money is needed." Also the President's dining out is to be curtailed to one dinner -with-the Vice-President, Mrs, Roosevelt said she and her hus: band has held several serious conver- sations on hether to "o any official entertaining at all in view of the econ. omic situation, . "I feel very strongly that not to have such hospitality would be a mistake," she said, "I feel that in times like these, one of the most helpful things is to see our friends." On this theory of friendliness as the essence of White House hospitality, Mrs. Roosevelt said she would serve refreshments, such as fruit punch and simple cakes, at the official receptions --a plan which has not been followed for several administrations. } Ice-water has been the only refresh: ment proferred in recent years. = [ "THESE HARD TIMES" "The hard times and scarcity of money makes it more important than ever to economize, One way I save on clothes is by renewing the "color of faded or out-of-style dresses, coats, stockings, and underwear, For dyeing, or tint- ing, I always use Diamond Dyes. : They are the most economical ones by far because they never fail to produce re- sults that make you proud.
