YOUTHFUL DREAM
By MILDRED WHITE.
Copyright, 1921. Western Newspaper Union.
Barrie, In college days had been an
athlete, and fond of the great out of
doers. Resting beneath a spreading
tree, with arms clasped Idly above his
head, he had dreamed dreams of an
adventurous future with some con
genial "nut-brown maid" by his side.
Instead, ISarrie had fallen early in
love, and sacrificed his dream to ne
cessity. It was his adverse fortune, to love,
and marry a white flower of a girl,
who, unlike the hardy brown-tanned
maid of fancy, exacted tender care
nnd the support due the clinging vine.
Barrio tried not to love Lillian; stub
bornly lie hud fought against her
charms, all to surrender the more
eagerly at last. And Lillian proved
a good wife, faithful to the details
of his home keeping, sweet natured
always, nnd lenient to his whims.
When Barrie, irritably insistunt,
grumbled at the confines of city life,
Lillian, unmoved, packed his bag and
cheerfully luiile him good -by, as be
hurried woodward cm some lonely va
cation. Sometimes it. seemed be was
really hurrying away from Lillian.
Her dainty perfections wearied him.
But after dogged days of freedom,
tramping unfamiliar country or fish
ing in wild and Isolated places, Barrie
was sure to come, shamefacedly nnd
humbly, back to Lillian's welcoming
hospitality. Her smile would be as
sweet when be returned as It bud
been on his departure. And this satis
fied iniperturliation of her's brought to
him merely Impatience. Mallory came
back to the office one day with en
thusiastic tales of a month spent out
West.
"Give me your route, Mallory," he
said brusquely, and the next day
found Barrie on his way to the lonely
places.
The office could manage well nt this
time, he said, without him. When
he was on his way, Lillian called Mal
lory to ascertain any possibility of
danger In Barrle's outing. To her
Mallory enthused on life in the open,
as he had to her husband. When
Lillian turned from the telephone the
wondering light In her eyes gave place
to understanding. Barre's first weeks
on the ranch found him joyously con
tent. "Tills Is something like It," he told
Dan of the ranch, "this morning's ride
was like a tonic."
Big Dun smiled.
"Von take It alone tomorrow," he
said. "I'm going over early to Has
tings. At Hastings " 1 mil's smile
chunged to a i oiise'ous laugh "there's
a new girl. Not any like her in tills
part, so we ail go over to see her.
"She makes the kind of llnp-jaeks
for the boys your mother used to
make anil she lets in crowd Into her
cabin nnd eat 'em. Somebody s named
tier 'Prairie Flower,' out of a book
he'd resd ; but sny ! Hint girl can ride!
Goes Hying on her white horse like
a streak. She's us brown and red
tiiiiiictt as mi autumn leaf, and she
wears a red cup on 1'er head hair
Hint's cr'nMy and brown, too, like a
leaf, and when Prairie Flower laughs
--say. It's like a lot of birds singing
In the morning."
Barrie nrlnned.
"Dun!" he exclaimed, "you are In
love."
"We all are," Dan answered.
"I inn." Barrie exclaimed, decidedly,
"I am going wlih you tomorrow morn
ing to Hustings. Not that I've any
foolish notion concerning this ranch
girl, but I do want to taste Home old-home-week
Map Jacks."
Barrie scarcely knew, himself, what
Impulse moved I. tin. but he was
guiltily aware as the two rode out in
tlic morning light together of a, long
ing memory, persistently burled, of the
nut biown maid of youthful dreams.
II :is, perhaps, by contrast that
l.lllMiti seemed almost wearisome in
Per perfect sameness. The boys were
iMclcnlly stopping for their morning
call at i lie picturesque cabin.
"She's not up early. I guess," a dis
appointed caller explained, "to ride
oer to Blue Bldgc. She does that
soiuet'nies, with her big bulldog. Noth
ing cunt hurt her with that beasl
around."
Satisfaction was In the gruff tone.
Batrle realized now bow pi otect Ingly
the Prairie Flower was regarded by
her rough companions. Determinedly
Barrie cantered toward Blue Hldgp.
"If she don't want anyone along,
why do you go and disturb her?" Dan
complafiied.
Hut something Imnglng In the cabin
had caught Barrle's eye. An auma
Ingly familiar something a blue and
gold embroidered apron that I. Milan,
across their own living room table,
had spent many evenings working
upon. Surely there could be no other
apron s Ingeniously original, for he,
himself, had whimsically drawn this
design on tin blue linen, lustier Ivcly
and lllnniluatingly, the truth came to
him, Lillian, In her faithful love, bad
followed to be near. In his Isolation,
and yet not to tre spass. Lillian, grow
ing and molding herself into an un
derstanding of his old, longing dream.
He opened his arms as she slipped
from her white horse to run to him.
Browned, yes, but slurry-eyed and ra
diant. "We will come here," she w1iIshtcJ
after t tint of allelic, "whenever th
longing seltes you. Barrie."
And Barrle's smile was a lover's
mil. ttt called her hli "nut brown
maid."

SCOUT CALLED "TAM-E-YUKH-TAH"
(CUT-OFF LEG)
Amos Chapman was scout foi
Gen. Nelson A. Miles In the war with
the southern plains tribes la 1874.
One day, with Billy Dixon ("Hasta"
Long Hair) and four soldiers her was
carrying dispatches from Miles' camp
on McClelland creek in Texas to Camp
Supply, Indian Territory, when they
were surrounded by a war party of
125 Commnnches and Klowas.
At the first fire from the Indians Pri
vate Smith fell from his horse. His
companions, believing him dead, dis
mounted, abandoned their horses, and
ran to a buffalo wallow, a depression
In the ground about 100 yards away.
The two scouts worked swiftly with
their knives deepening the wallow
while the three soldiers kept up a hot
fire against the savages, who were rid
ing nt full speed In a fast-narrowing
circle around them.
Suddenly Chapman noticed Private
Smith trying to rise. "Boys, keep
these infernal redskins off me and I'll
run back and get Smith," he said to
his companions. He laid down his
ritle, sprang from the wallow, and un
der a hail of Indian bullets ran to
where Smith lay.' Throwing himself
beside the wounded man, the scout
pulled Smith on his back and rose.
As lie staggered back towards the wal
low, 15 Indians rode for him at full
speed.
Dixon nnd his comrades opened up
with a fiercer Are to protect Chap
man In his dash for safety. When he
was only 20 yards from the wallow an
Indian rode almost on top of him and
fired. The scout fell, but since he
did not feel any pain, he believed he
had only stepped Into a hole.
"Amos, you are badly hurt 1" ex
claimed Dixon as Chapman dropped
beside him.
"No, I am not," declared the scout,
"Look at your leg," replied "Hasta,"
and when Chnpman looked he saw
that one leg was shot off Just above
the ankle. He had been walking on
the bone and dragging the foot be
hind him, but lp the excitement of the
moment he did not know It. His
friends ampntuted the foot, bound up
the wounds, held out against the as
saults of the Indians until they were
rescued by a company of soldiers.
Their brave defense won special men
tion In General Miles' dispatches, and
Chapman was given a medal of honor
for his heroic act. Ever since that
fltrht the Indians have called him
"Tum-e-yiikh-tnh" or "The Man with
the Cut-Off Leg."

FREDERICK WILLIAM SCHMALS
LE'S DARING RIDE
Down on the Washita river In Okla
homa oue Septemher day In 1874,
Captain Lymuu's company of the Fifth
luftmtry were fighting for their lives
ayaiust 4(H) Kiowa and Comanche war
riors who had surrounded the wagon
train which they were escorting to
Gene! Miles' anny.
That night Captain Lyman railed
fur volunteers to make a dash through
the Indian Hues and ride to Cunip
Siipilyk SX) miles away, for help. The
first to offer himself was Frederick
William Schiualsle, a scout. Taking
only a carbine and mounting the best
horse tn the comiiumcl, Schnintsle
clipped out of the corralled wagons
aud mile away. He was at once dis
covered by the Indians, and while urg
ing his horse to top speed the scout
rode Into a pvairie dog town.
The horse stuinliled, nearly throw
ing Its rider over Its head, then recov
ered and sped on. Sehnmlsle had
lout his hat and carbine In the tumble,
and the Indians were gaining on him.
They would have caught h in, too, if
he tin tj not run Into a buflalo herd,
which Immediately stampeded. Lend
ing low over his horse's neck the scout
rode beside a big buffalo hull and suc
ceeded In ese:cplg tlie pursuing red
skins. I'.y ibis time be bad lost alt
sense of dirvotioD. Finally reaching
a stream which be recognized as th
Ctini'ilinn river, he knew he was head
ed In tin right direction.
Itecent rains had swollen the rrrer
to a torrent nnd an attempt to ford
It In the darkness meant the chane of
death from ci'imksand or floating drift
wood. Deciding to wait until) day
break, the scout began searching for
it ford. Suddenly he heard dogs bark
ing and knew be was near ntt Indian
village, lie must cross the river.
IMunglne In boldly be managed to
reach the other bunk In safety.
Daybreak found him In broken coun
try covered with ti icki-ts tml in one
of these be bid ail dry. hungry and
thirsty. At nightfall tlie scout, with
the North star as his guide set out
again. After rid ng all night, he
reached a h.i.v ramp at Wolf Creek, -0
miles from Cnmp Supply.
Stopping here only long enough to
eat nnd to get a fresh horse, Schmalslo
peel on to Camp Supply, which he
reached soon after noon. While the
