The youthful adventurer may think of the bleeding heart, the full rigged ship or the , hissing serpent as an essential decoration of the freo roaming soul. Time, however, has a settling ef fect upon most things. And so, later when the glitter of adventure has been somewhat tar nished by experience, the erstwhile adventurer is liable to find his tat too marks as bright as ever. .. Tho bleeding heart or full rigged shli', onco the badge of the roaming soul, may. become an embarrassment al the seashore, pr wherever hrawnjr arms are bared. .-.i Efforts will then ho made to re move the tattoo marks. However, tho task is not a simple; one. ' Each particle of color originally deposited must now bo removed, one by one. The' task is trying both to patient and physician. '. ; Xt Is a somewhat hazardous Job, too, and should not be entrusted to anyone but a skilled dermatologist, v Even so, there may be 'left at tho slto of the tattoo marks . minute white scars, in the place of "the col or grains. 1 Thus, even when the 'color has taeon removed, the design '. may bo revealed under close inspection, though not as brilliant as before. Sometimes it may prove easier and less objectionable to obliterate the tattoo picture by added markings, than tp attompt its removal, One must guard against so-called tattoo bleaching solutions, or liquids sold for ' self application. Practically all suoh solutions con sist of -corrostvo substances which when used destroy all the underly ing skin. Thcso solutions are liable to give rlso vo ugly ulcerswhich,-In healing ieavo behind them disfiguring scars. I MtMER -VWJU&WT VlK GOING TO DOWW . WmD EE America's Oldest Raco Track In I7!i.'

On tho fifth morning At remarked, laconically, "Wo sure gotta hustle today, for. Pa will uo uouio. ,. "Why the particular hustle today, Al?" quelled Roclt. "Pa has a way of sllppln' up on us, an' It'd never Co to be Itetched loafin'. Ho wouldn't lot us go to the rodeo and danco on tho Fourth." "I'd forgotten about that," re joined Roclt, with cuthuala3m. "Aro all tho folks goln'?" ''Pa and Ma ain't goln', but sure tho root of us Preotona ere." "Includln' Ash?" asked Rock, casually. "He nevor missed one yet that . Thlry went to leaaiwnya u dance ' Allle aud the kids will Btup at t.cs lie's. Thlry said she was goln' to Winter 8. Reckon you II ride In with us?

Vet the urge. laid hold ot him, persuasively at flrsti and then, augmented by a very coutrary spirit. It grew compelling. He could look on at the' rodeo, and take just a peep In at tho danco, to see Thlry In a party drees. But then ho would bo certain to see her In tho arms ot some moonfitruek cow boy.

CollIcr"s Weeldj-i They reached the barns, to ascer- tala that Ash and tho others had. not yet come In, Rock, after caring tor his horse, slowly eauntereii up the slope to bis cabin, finding him self subservient to an oppressive mood. Ash Frc3ton would soon bo back. What had bo done with Egypt? And over against tills cold speculation, with ttet Incalculable possibilities, balanced the warmth ot his assurances to Thlry. How . could ho fall her? Yet, equally im possiblehow could he be other- wlso than True Rock? While ho was soberly debating tho matter, and cleaning up for sup per, he heard the clip-clop of trot ting. horses, then rattle of wheels. With a. start he went to the door. Sooot Preston waa driving up on the acat of a big empty wagon. Two more wagons had topped the slope. Soon they halted before the cabins. Rock waited for riders to appear. And he was not disappointed. The burly, form of the older Preston hove in sight,, riding a foan and lead ing two' saddle-horses. A little after ward, eight ot Ash on Egypt shot a quick stab through Rock. Tho nest Instant he relaxed. The white horse appeared tired, but none the worso tor the, absence. . '' ' "Aw!" exclalmted Truoman, aloud, and his relief told him Just how much ho hod cared how he bad t Gage hurried to ' Intercept Rock. f. His eyes betrayed nxlcty. roeolutoly put thought of Egypt from him. "Reckon I might 03 well go out and get it over." Bat first he went Inaldo. While pondorlng over how best to meet tills situation and still 1)0 true to Thlry, lie had buckjed on his sun belt. Suddenly the fact dawned on him, and ha laid hard hands on the bolt buckle. But he got no farther. There was more hero to be true to than Thlry Preston; there was the coda of tho West. Ho had.no right to face tills vicious unknown prob lem, Ash Preston, without being armed. ' Whereupon he strolled out lei surely. Aa he came In sight ot the arriving Prestons, halfway between tho cabins, Cage, espied him, and with a start ho wheeled about from the family, who wero welcoming him, o dismount like any cowboy, and hurried to Intercept Rock. As ho drow near, his deep gray eyes betrayed considerable anxiety. "Wnl, Rock, how are you?" waa his greeting, accompnnled by ox tended hand. "The boys Bay you all got on lino. I'm suro glad." "Howdy, boss!" returned Rock, cordially. "Wo got the fence Job 'most done." "Hn! You don't say? Wat; I'll be dos-gnned. How'd you ever get thet out of them?" Preston fell In etep with Rock, though It was significant that he kept a couple cf yards distant. Rock replied with good humor, somewhat eulogizing tho young Prestons. In this imtimor they approached the dotiblo cabin, whero on the wide porch were collected the women and children. Ash was the only one ol tho returning brothors who got down r.n the ground. Ills movement wa3 almost stealthy. Perhaps more ilsuilleant than his father's action v.'U3 his slow step forward and to mo side. (Copm'tflit, Zcne Crcu) Ash t'.ands cn guard. Roclt atf. ' vancac.
