There are innumerable sets of
books and collections of stories that
have long held prestige as literature
for children. . .
The classical legends and the works
of standard authors undoubtedly- re
main among the best that literature '
lias to offer them. . j
We are likely to . assume that be
cause these classic stories arc good,
because when we were young we loved
them and becauso they were a de
termining factor In forming our own
literary preferences, that therefore,
they are best for every child.
Yet, a child may grow up with the
liveliest delight in good literature and
never have read Alice in Wonderland
or enjoyed Oliver Twist and Ivnnhoc.

"You will not tell?" sho Haahca.
"Novel'. You suro got we wrong."
Sho Rtivo vent to a shuddorlng
8ound. Tho gun Toll from her hands.
Sho swayed. Ho could see her oyos
wore tight shut. Then she sank
forward, her faco on his kneos, and,
clinging to li 1 hi. sho broke Into low
sobs, ovory ono of which was like a
knife-thrust to Rock. . . ,. i ,
He let her havo it out and stroked
her hair and her tight fists, one of
which clonchod bis scarf, tho other
his coat sleevo. She did not re
cover soon, though presently tho
sobs gavo way to soft weeping.
I Then ho hold her closer, scarcely
I seolng her or tho black pine
'. streaked gloom or the stretching
flares of yollow light tlong tho ho
rizon. Ilo was seeing something
' blacker than tho night, more Blnls
! tcr than tho shadows. , As a last
resource, to save her and hor fa
thcr, ho could kill Ash Proston.
That would kill Thlry'B love, but
protoct hor namo and Insure a
chance tor hor future happlnosB.
j But for Ash, this blundorlng, thiev
ing work could be halted in time to
prevent discovery. The vango was
lonlont. Proston niroady .saw the
orror of his ways. Ho could be
' amonablo to any plan. Ash was tho
stumbling block.
' At 1 this brooding Juncture ' of
Rock's modltntlons ho becamo
awaro that Thlry was stirring. Sho
roso.,Irom her knees.:,
"Can you forgive mo?" she whis
pered.
,"Thlry, yon talk nonsonso somo
times." .'
"Hut I might havo shot you." '
"Suro I thought you wpro goln'

Everything went but a hot torrlble

"Can .muthing bo done to savo

"It must bo dono, Thlry. Suro I

"Oh, Truomnn, you are my one

stop tills jelling of stolen beef If
you prevent It beforo tbey'ro ar
rested I'll I'll lovo you jvltti all
my hoart and soul."
"Darling, I will do It somehow,"
promised Rock. .
"I'll go now," sho said, rlslng.and
swaying unsteadily. v
"I'm glad now you camo to Sun
set Pass," sho whispered. "But
you'vo added to my tears. It's now
yiu, too, who might fall under tbo
Preston shadow."
"Bo bravo, Thlry. Don't give up.
. . . Novor lose faith In mo. . . .
Good night," ha concluded, and,
loosing her hand, bo kissed it and
lied silently Into tho darkness.
. Forty-olglit . hours latoc Rock
rodo Into Wagontonguo. '
j Gngo Preston bad bcon more than
glad to give htm leave of absence,
sensing no doubt In Rock some
thing not Inimical to his procarloui
i fortunes. In a noto to Thlry, Rock
explained tho reason for bis going,
Importuning hor to wait patiently
and not to bo a victim to imagined
ovlls that somehow bo would find a
solution,
When Rock dropped in to soo
Winter It was not with any deflnlto
purpose, but that night ho and his
old trlond lockod themselves in a
room at tho hotol. Thoro y.oro
rango channels open to Winter to
which Rock had no access. Tho
Preston situation was graver ac
tual accusations had bcon mado, it
Boomed. But by whom was not
manifest.
"Sol, old timer, I'm In deep," said
Rock at tho conclusion of Winter's
confidence, and bo opened bis palms
oxprosslvoly. "Thlry loves me!"
"Do you know any thin' thet
makes Preston's guilt shore?"
"Yes, but I promised Thlry not to
toll," Rock answered.
"But you can go to Preston an'i
tell him you know. Scaro blm to
sense."
"Sol, Cage Preston can't call his
soul his own. 1 reckon Ash led hfm
into this and now has gc' 111 mi buf
faloed. Nothing on earth or In
heaven can stop Ash Fro3ton." --
' This . condition is . most . .common
In the young; the majority of cases
appearing between the -ages of 18
months and 7 years of age.,
Ac a rule, a chain of ,glands run
ning from tho angle of the Jaw and
down the, neck is affected.
Tho swelling is slow In progres
sion. There is little or no pain at
all. " '" .
Curlr.g the . early stages tho
glar.dr. may be stone hard. Later,
as tho glands ' break down, thoy
soften.- .
Not;, imcommonly only one sldo
of the neck is affected-
Tho presence of tuberculosis
glands of the neck dees not neces
sarily Imply that tho child has tu
berculosis cf the lung3 or other
part of the body. .
Treatment for this condition va
ries with the nature of the case. In
many Instances tho glands can be
cured without surgery.
: "Nothln'?" echoed Winter, but
the Incredulity of tl;o West rang in
his sarcasm. . - -, :
"Nothln' but lead!" . T .
"Ahuh! . . . Wnl, I novor yet
seen thet kind of a liombro miBS
mootln' It. . . . Now, Rock, I've
an idee. If Dabb an' Lincoln know
what I know an' It's a good bot
they know more thoy will fell you.
Thet obviates any broken promlso
on your part, abb is humoi. Lin
coln Is the whitest man In' these
parts. They're both rich, an' thoy
rule the Cattle Association. Hes
bltt Is only president What Dabb
an' Lincoln say is law. . . . Now
you go to them." ,
"But, Sol, good Heavens! What
for?" ' - .
"If you can got Dnbb an' Lincoln
to sympathize with you an' Thlry,
that'll be symputhlzln' with Pros
ton. Ten years ago there was a
case somethin' like this. Wal, bis
friends got him to make gopd what
he'd Btole an' saved bin- from Jail,
i no worse. Preston's enso ain't
so bad, thet is, yet . . . It you've
got tho nerve an" the wit you can
keep Preston from ruin an' Thlry
trom a broken heart"
Rock leaped up, Inspired, sud
denly on (Ire with the vision Win
ter's sagacity had conjured up. Ho
pushed aside tle and chair and
hugged his stdrtild friend.
"Old-timer, I've sure got the norvo
and you've supplied the wit." , .:
,Hock prosented hlmselt at Dabb's
office the next morning.,", .,
"Hollu, Rock!" replied Dabb In
answer to his greeting. "Have a
chair and cigar. I've been hopln'
youV run into town."
Dabb appeared cordial. j
"How's Amy?" queried Rock.
"Sho was fit as a Ally when I saw
her last. ; She went to Denver to
visit. Expect her home next week."
"John, 1 told you , I was In lovo
with Thlry. Well, iftat wasn't so
bad.. .But now -she's. In, lovo with-,
mo. And the situation Is hell."
"Man, you'vo only yourself to
blame. You wero advised not to go.
I myself told you not to stay." . ,
"I loved the girl," ropllod Rock,
simply. - i ' - - - - - -
, "Humph!" said Dabb; chewing at
his cigar. "Rock, some of us cat
tlemen know you haven't looked for
nnythlu' shady about Proston."
"How do you know?" nskod Rock.
"Well, that question camo up the
other night . at our .Association.
meeting. ' Hesbitt gave you a hard
rub. Over this Presto scandal.
Tom Lincoln an' I an' ono or two
others took exception ,to Hesbitt. -We
claimed you not only weren't in
with Freston on. any thin' crooked,
but you hadn't trailed around look
in' for it. Tha reason, ot course,
was you were sweet on Thlry Pros
ton." . '. ... .
"John, that was most damned
good of you," returned Rock,
warmly. "You an" Lincoln figured
that it I had looked for shady work
I'd have found it?" !
"Sure. We knew; that. No out-,
fit could fool you." j
'Well, what thon?' '. .
"Not so easy. But personally I
bellovo you'd have come to me for
advice an' help."- ,
"I don't know that I'd have pre
sumed so far," went on Rock.
"What's worryln" you now, Rock?"
"Hosbltt'a outfits aro after Pres
ton," replied Rock, and ho s'ave
Dabb a detailed account ot Dunne's
maneuver at the Notch camp and
what had come ot it
i' You dared that foreman Dunno
to throw his gun?" exclaimed Dabb,
gravely, t
"I suro did.''
"Rock, that was a 'bold movo an'
a wise one. I'm darn glad you told
mo this. Reckon it didn't seem Im
portant to you that I knew for
you'd havo told it quick. But it is
Important." .
"How so?" nsked Rjck, curiously.
"Well, in the first place it vindi
cates Lincoln an' nie In our stand
for you. An' it will stump Hesbitt,"
"Ahuh! Then this now rancher
Is dead set against Proston?".
"Is he? Well, I guess. An' ho
has his outfits r'arln'. . . . Now,
Rock, tho strnngo thing Is Hesbitt
has been losin' a good deal ot stock
most Half Moon brand an' his
men can't locate them. Hido nor
hair! . . . But other men have!"
"Dabb, what're you tcllln' me?"
shouted Rock, flercoly.
"Rock, now listen. You once rode
for Jem Single. Preston ruined Sin
gle. An' Slagle has hung around
out thore to get even. Reckon he's
in a fair way to do it. For he has
tracked the Prestons down."
"Aw, this's awful!" groaned
