Chats With Parents "NEVEIl A CKOSS' WORD" " By Alice dodson Penle Wo hear of homes where there is I never a oross word, where there are , no loud voices, no arguments, no out bursts of Irritation. What effect lias such an . atmos ,phere upon the children in it? That depends, and depends wholly upon what the fine smooth surface J really signifies. , I . Does it mean that father and mother are really loyal, fond and : happy with each other? j Does it mean that beyond this they i have also the self control which en jables them to preserve friendliness and graciousness even at the inevit able trying moments? : , - '. Then the children -are lucky,, in i deed. For the fact that they never (hear a cross word spoken is but .an outward sign of the inner soundness of their family life. But such homes, human nature be ing what it is, must be rare. . .What is far more likely is that the perfectly polite home is a suppressed home where the adults are bitterly determined to outdo one another in preserving the surf noe, no matter what inner storms may be raging, what . rankling grudges ' may lie beneath. ' In such an atmosphere tho child i senses the true state of things and. his own developing character faithfully reflects every distressing undercur rent. There is probably nothing so numb ing, so frustrating, to his affection ate impulses as living with those who practice this type of spiritual dis- I honesty. It makes him feel that noth ing is worth whUe. Far mor0 wholesome it is for the growing child to live with adulls who, while they feel responsibility for mak ing life run as smoothly as possible, yet behave honestly, o'OBervrng as best they can the spirit of lovo rather than its letter.

That was the powor Ash ProB ton bad over her love for him' and fenr. It did no longer seem unnat ural. That was why no, cowboys over got a fair chnuco to win Tlilry. Proston's friendship. ' .', ,'-' . .. Uoclt knew the West. Io had be come i n. part ot it, The Prestons wero new, comparatively, to this wild range. He know Western men, their uncanny powor to suspoct and search out and find among tbpm the cattleman who transgressor the un written laws. All cattle-raisers stoio from one another. But .thcro was a dlstliicllon with a difference. .v,. Oago Preston was gotllng rich a ..little bit .swiftly tor a rancher on an Rock Btifl.oa inc yen ordinary Bcale. How? Rock an- iwerod tho query in many ways, but only ono way 6eo:ncd tenable. Pres ton sold cattle on tho hoof, tho same aa other ranchers. Nono but rus tlers ever sold cattle that did not belong to them. And certainly I'rca ton could not bo a rustler. It was' inconceivable that Ash Preston could be a rustler, either, at least without his father knowing. But Rock scouted tbe rustler idea. Tbo Prestons had become butch ers of cattio on a considerable scale. Did any one, outside thom solvcn, know Just bow many steers they butchered? What a pertinent question here! Rock was certain that ho would find out that no out siders knew how many head of stock they killed. And hero was tho gist of tho matter. ::. Some ot tbo Prestons, with Ash at tbo head, and tho father either In with them or unablo to prevent It, wcro killing cattle not their own, burning or biding the skins, and selling tho beef at near and distant points. "Good Lord!" muttered Rock, un der his breath. "I'vo hit It plum center. The damn fools, thlnkln' they can bide that long! . . . Gage I Preston ought to have more sense. no strucK me queer, though. But ll's that rattlosnake son who's got this outfit buffaloed. No wonder poor Tlilry ban sad eyes. . . Well, by Ilcaveu, I'll stay at Sunset Pass!" ; A bell awakened Rock from late jlumbors. Tho sun wan up, and as he peeped out over bis blanket env- A erlng ho saw tho grass shine gold under tho cedars. Ho bad overslept, which was not a remarkable tact, considering bow long it bad taken him to get to sleep. In the sober light of day .the ta?k before him ..euamod tremendous, .

No now thing tor Rock was it to appear a llght-neartod, careless cowboy when underneath this guise ho was bard and cautious, keen as a' blade. The Prestons, oxceptlng- Ash, would be easy to deceive. Briskly be strode toward tho dou ble cabin, conscious of heart-beating anticipation, and whon be thumped upon tne porch Alice Pres ton came out of tbo kitchen, carry ing plates and cup, which she set Upon the table. ' . Mrs. Preston looked out of tbe kitchen, and greeted Rock with lileasant smile and words. ''Are tho boys up, too?" he asked as lie fell, upon the ham and eggs and hot biscuits. "Land's sake! They're up an' gone long ago," she replied. "They were suro funny. Tom said: 'Let hi in sloop, Ma.. Tbe longer tho better.' . . . An' Al said : 'Don't wake the new boss, Ma. He won't never got no sleep wticn Ash 1b hero, so let him get soma now.' . . . An' Harry said: 'Ain't Tlilry up yot, either? Reckon settln' up in the moonlight Is bad tor Bomo folks.' " v '.'It .suro is, Mrs. Preston," mm icapca 10 nis lips. laughed Rock. "I'm sorry, though, if I'm to blame." "Ob, Thiry was up hours ago," Alice Informed them. "Saw Pa nnd the boys ride away. I know slio had a run-In with Ash, bocauso she bad been cryln'." "That's too bad," caid Rock, bend ing over his plate and eating fast. Ho had seen the mother's faco chango very slightly, almost Imper ceptibly. Ash Preston was a thorn in tho flesh ot tills whoicsomo family. Rock mado short work of his breakfast, and glad somehow that bo had not encountered Thiry, ho hurried down toward tbo corrals. At the barnyard Rock found AI Preston leading tir somo horses; and ono ot his brothers wns Jacking up a hind wheol of tho green wagon. - "Morning, boss. Hopo you'ro not sick," drawled Al. "Boj'E, I was plumb dead. I'll suro lot you punish me for bcin' lazy." , The other boy noddca at Rock. ' "Are you Tom or Harry?" asked Rock, suddenly reminded of tbe twins. ,- "I'm Harry." ' "All right, Harry, I'll know you tomorrow or bust. Whore's Tom?" "Ho left us to grease tho wagon' and went off after a horse for you." "For my white horse, Egypt ?"i asked Rock. "No I'm sorry to say," re-' turned Harry, haltingly, as it bo had' bad news. - . 1 "Did Egypt Jump tho pasture! fence?" i "No. Ash saddled blm and rode; off on him.1 Rock sat down suddenly, stifling tho yell that leaped to his Hps.
