Billy and
Betty.
Br ALLEN LYNN.
Copyright, 1907, ty C. N. Lurle.
' E was hardly conscious of her
Intrusion at first, she fitted so
X well Into it all with her soft
gray calico and chestnut hair.
They were on the brow of ti slope that
dropped rapidly down Into the valley,
and she paused and threw ber hand
above her eyes with a quick motion,
which he recognized as expressing
anxiety and hope. He could sue her
face plainly from where he luy, and
lie could read In the glances which
flashed from point to point something
of the terror of their owner at not
finding what she sought.
"What is it, Miss Detty?" he drawled
os with a slow, muscular movement of
his body ho threw himself upon bis
feet and moved forward to her side.
"Can I be any help?"
"O-oh! It's you, Billy? Thank God!
Hurry! Hurry! Tap's knocked down
by a tree an' being crushed. I couldn't
lift It."
"Where?" asked Billy tersely.
"To Possum Flat. lie wus c'hoppln'
a bee tree, an' It fell 'foro he thought,
riease, please do hurry!"
Billy nodded reassuringly. I'ossuui
Flat was three miles away by a cir
cuitous path around craggy points and
up and down declivities or one mile by
going straight over the ridge and meet
ing a precipice by crawling out on a
branch for twenty foot and sliding
down the tree trunk for thirty feet
more. Billy wondered If Betty had
come by this route. But as be sprang
up the slope he swuug his hand to
ward the circuitous path, knowing full
well as he did so, however, that the
girl would do exactly as she pleased,
for that was her way.
Possum Flat was the wonder and
chagrin of all the mountain side, for
was It not the climax of brazen Indus
try? They ail had their truck pntches,
but beside Possum Flat their patches
were as barren fields to n land of mlik
and honey. Jake, the father of Betty
as he was called In contradistinction
to another Jake of the same name,
who was father of Meg grew pota
toes that stood him from October dig
ging to the May planting. Ills onions
and cabbages were always above fum
lly needs and flowed over Into envied
sales for ready money, and, to cap It
all, behind his cabin was a four acre
field that every fall showed green with
sprouting shoots and every spring
grew heavy with swaying, goldeu
beaded wheat. No wonder be had
two mules and a buckboard "kerrldge,"
a "peuzzer" In front of bis cabin and a
kitchen with real window glass win
dows behind! And no wonder he cur
rled his head high as the mighty man
of tbe "hlllcrs" and looked askance at
the valorous "pore trash" youth that
dared to raise eyes to his daughter.
But of unambitious, care free Billy
ho had not even thought as an object
of suspicion.
So now, after that stalwart youth
bad removed the heavy tree trunk from
bis body and had lifted and borne him
to his bed In the cabin as gently as a

mother might her child, he welcomed
with cordial gratitude an offer to re
main and look alter things until lie
could gi't out. Betty wan strong and
willing, but her hands would bo full in
looking after him, and there were the
mules to care for and the dozens of
plgn aud a cow to drive up from the
valley and tullk, and besides It was
nigh, time the four acre were again
seeded In order that there should be
a succession to the sacks lf golden
grain which were now stored in the
shed loft waiting for the higher quota
tions which minor promised. Yea, a
strong man was needed on the place,
for Possum Flat, even In Its splendor,
was Isolated. The nearest neighbor
was too far away to be reached by
even the report of his rllle
Billy entered upon Ms rew work
with unwonted energy, A great hoop
of wood was cut and piled near th
b(t?k door, where It would be handy
for Betty. He brought wuter and fed
the pigs and. In fplle of her protests,
Insisted on doing the milking himself,
and he brought the big. unwieldy plow
and swung It in behind the mules and
went merrily around the four acre lot
In lessening parallelograms.
It was the novelty of seeing a worn
ail about that was pleasant. lie had
no sisters, and his mother had long
been dead. It was Just the novelty
and the neatness mill ontentodness of
it all he liked. And this Idea, If bis
thoughts took such detinlte form, re
mained with lit in for n mouth until
the Invalid begun to hobble about on
crutches when suddenly the truth
came home to hi m as had her beauty
that day on the ridge. Hilly was In
love.
Betty noticed the c hange In lilin at
once, and her face grew pur.zled, but
only for a little while. Then an odd
twinkle of humor came into her eyes
as though she understood And mln
gledwlth the humor was a tender
flickering light which had been gaining
strength lu her eyes these past few
weeks, a light which Billy had not yet
seen.
As he entered Jake looked up with
angry Impatience, aud Billy raised a
hand defensively before his face, but
the Invalid wus not thinking of that.
"Ilcered anything 'bout wheat to
day?" ho grumbled. "Goln' down, of
course."
"Goln' up," Billy answered promptly.
"A man hollered to me from the aige
o' the bill this niornln' an' said 'twas
seventy."
Seventy!" Jake grabbed his crutches
and rose totterlngly to his feet, but
sank back, with a snarl of mingled
rage and pain. "Seventy . cents, an
I've got ninety bushels. Dtim the old
back! By the time I'm out ag'lu It'll
be down to fifty, like 'twas last year,
an' that'll be a clean loss of $18."
"Can't I go, pnp?" suggested Betty.
The gloomy face cleared slightly,
then lowered. He loved the profits of
his Industry, but not so much as he
loved Betty. It was thirty miles to
Staunton.
"No, ye can't," he snarled.
There was a brief silence. Then Bet
ty said:
"There's Billy, pap. He's mighty
strong and wllllu'."
Tbe face darkened, then grew light
er. Evidently the Idea, at first scout
ed, was being tolerated. That meant
Billy had been making giant strides
forward during these few weeks.
"I dunno," doubtfully.
Billy saw bis opportunity and rose
to It like a man-like a man of Indus
try. He was developing rapidly.
"I'll take It down all right," he said
confidently. "I've sold wheat to Staun
ton afore. But uiebbo It'll be worth
while to hold back till you're out
ag'ln."
Jako snorted.
"There's more Tallin's than rlsln's in
wheat," he snapped. "I've found that
out. I reckon ye'd better go, an',
mind, I want ye to get It all down by
tomorrow. Seventy cents! Yes, ye
must get it nil lu tomorrow."
Billy's head was whirling. But there
was Betty looking at him confidently,
and her father already beginning to
lose some of his newly acquired confi
dence, lie must brace up.
"All right," he answered as steadily
as be could. "The mules can draw
half on the long wagglu, an' I'll borry
Tom Stuart's mule un' Ike Coyner's
hay wagglu. That'll take the other
half. Ike's boy Sam enn drive behind
mo so I can keep an eye on him. Oh,
yes. We'll get on fust rate."
Jako nodded approvingly, it was a
good plan.
"Seventy cents," he admonished
warnlngly. "Try an' get it."
After the wheat was loaded the next
day Billy entered the cabin for a few
last Instructions. Before leaving be
contrived to draw Betty Into the back
kitchen for a moment.
"Say, Butty," he began, "I I say,
would ye mind me buyin' a ring to
Statinlon, n gold ring for you an' me?"
She looked at him quickly, under
standing, her face flushing. She
could not remember n single one of ber
married acqualntnuces who had been
given a gold ring.
"Why, no. 1 wouldn't mind, Billy,"
she said simply. "I'll be real glad."
"An' an' would ye mind speaklu'
to your pap 'bout It while I'm gone,
Betty? It might bo a good time now
I'm a-totlu' his wheat."
"N-uo, I don't uilud."
She watched hlui from the doorway
uutll the heavy wagons rumbled out
of sight. Then she went to her father.
"Pup," she announced abruptly,
"Billy's asked me to marry him."
"An' you?"
"I'vo said yes," composedly.
Jako controlled himself with a
mighty effort. With Betty he must be
diplomatic.
"Well, ye know best," he grimaced
affably. "Hut ye know how 'tis with
Billy. Ye'll have to watt till he's able
to keep ye. 1 don't reckon he's saved
enough to buy a runt pig yet."
But Betty smiled to herself coutei.t
edly. Wus uot Billy tbo best uatured
aud the best looking man on the slope?
And had be not promised her a gold
ring out of the plenitude of bis riches?
So she said softly:
"I won't go ag'ln ye, pap. Don't ye
fear. We'll wait till ye say yourself
that Billy's able to keep me."
But, curiously enough, at that very
moment Billy was wondering dismally
how he would be able to contrive the
purchase of a gold ring with the US
louts which represented the accumu
lation of his twenty-live years.
They expected him back by the end
of the third day. It was the afternoon
of the sixth when he returned. As he
dismissed young Sam and attended to
lib mules there was a look of beatific
Joy upon his face, which remained
there until he opened the cabin door
and saw the evpectant face of Jake.
Then be whitened aud staggered to the
nearest chair.
"You poor boy!" cried Betty tender
ly. "You're plumb beat out."
"Did ye get the 70 cents?" demanded
Jake eagerly.
Billy gasped and tried to collect bis
thoughts. What did they want him
to say? It was about the wheat
wasn't it? He bad almost forgotten
that unimportant matter after the gold
ring took possession of his mind. He
remembered the wheat had been taken
to the storeroom of a big flouring mill
and that he had told a clerk he would
be back later and attend to its sale.
Then he bad hurried away In search
of a Job hauling with the mules and
had carted sand two days for $0 and
bad bought the gold ring. Yes, that
was It, and he had given Sam the 25
cents to pay his fare to a cousin's at
Flsbervllle to get him out of the way
for the two days. That wii3 all only
he had forgotten to go back and sell
the wheat. .
"Did ye get the 70 cents?" demand
ed Juke for the second time.
Billy felt that It was a crisis with
him, and he drew a long, hard breath.
Then his gaze steadied.
"Ye see, it's this way," he said, "signs
are for rlsiu', an' I ain't sold yet. Ye

might Jest as well have 75 or 80 cents
as for anybody else. But I'll go down"
he was about to say "to oncet," but
restrained himself, for that might be
tray hltn; he added Instead "In a few
days an' see how the rlsln's comln' on."
Under ordinary circumstances the In
valid would uot have controlled his as
tonishment and wrath, but this was an
extraordinary opportunity, aud Jake,
the father of Betty, was nothing If not
diplomatic. So he forced himself Into
a semblance of composure.
"Well, It's your lookout, Billy," be
said slgulUeautly. "I ordered ye to
sell, an' of course I'll hold ye responsi
ble for all fallln's from the 70 cents.
Mind that!"
It was a very miserable Billy who
went out to attend to the evening
chores. He had half a mind to rush
back to Staunton and remedy the evil
before It grew worse. He imagined all
sorts of fallings to GO cents, 50, per
haps 40; to a life of toll spent in aton
ing for tho carelessness; to the proba-
blo loss of Betty. But ho stuck It out
until tho third morning. Then be left
the cabin with steady, confident
strides, which, however, changed to
frantic haste as soon as he was be
yond view of Betty in tho doorway.
But tho mills of the gods sometimes
turn out unaccountable grist. Every
moment since Billy hud been told from
tho bill that wheat was "goln' up" the
mills of the Chicago pit had been
grinding out good flour for his chaff.
The west had been scoured, the mar
kets of the world invoked and the
many tongued lines of telegraph
brought Into the game. And all hud
redounded to the honor and glory of
Billy of Coou II11I. When he returned
to Possum Flat nt the end of one short
tweuty-four hours his face was nguiu
expressive of bentlfic Joy.
Going straight to Juke, the fulher of
Betty, he handed him a roll of bills.
"Tho rlsln' was even better than I
'lowed on," ho said nonchalantly. "I
sold for $1 a bushel. Ye see, there
was signs o' breakln', an' I 'lowed I'd
better not hold on any longer."
There are varying signs of wonder,
chagrin, Incredulity and satisfaction,
but the mingling of thorn all which
gathered on Jake's face was of the
kind that cannot be put Into words.
He gazed at the money, at the strong,
buudsome figure before him; at Betty,
smiling a few feet away, and bowed
his head lu surrender.
"I reckon I might 'a' been mistook,
Betty," be said submissively. "Billy '11
lie able to keep ye, sure 'uoitgh."

fer already with indigestion and weak
stomach can with care and the uso of
Ml-o-na stomach tablets restore their dl
jrestlon to a healthy condition, so that
they can eat what they want at any
time without fear of distress or suf
fering. After a few days' use of Ml-o-na
stomach tablets, the headache dizzy
feeling, drowsiness, bad taste in tne
sleeplessness, distress after eating
all these symptoms of a weak stom
ach will disc-appear, and perfect di
gestion ami a good skin will show
that the vital machinery is once more
running binoothly.
Take a little Ml-o-na tablet before
each meal so that It. will stimulate the
digestive Juices and give strength to
tho stomach, and then It will take
