SMITH {'»ntlnaed from rage T e a ture of rich brown velvet, and her softly oval face was framed by a mass of silky, deeply waved black hair But the moat startling thing about tier were her cloudy grey eyes, long, and heavily lashed and these, set In ttir dark beauty of tier tare gave the effect ot a bit of clear sky unexpectedly seen through an open ing In dark clouds Her mouth was wide, generous, wjtli a full, finely carved lower Up and a thinner, sternrr upper Up both the color of blooming popples Tot*. a Hrauttfvi • s p e c im e n Toto turned to Elmira "You c'n run on back out to th’ Del's now, honey,” she said, as though she were conferring a favor Elmira seemed on the verge of making a sharp retort, but T oto’* imperious ryes were upon lier. and they were unsmiling Elmira dragged bark Into the field without a backward glance At once the grey eyes were smiling again "How long you been here. Carl?" he asked easily. A soft hot breeze had arisen, and It whipped the woman's Uim dress around her. outlining a body whose loveliness was breathtaking Ap parently sUm the exquisite mould ot her belied her slightness and htnt-d at a supple completenes- "About four weeks or so." the youth managed to say between dry Ups. "Kinds bashful, ain’t you. honey?” Toto smiled Into his eyes. Carl swayed a little drunkenly “ You—you're brauttful." he gulped "You're klddin’,“ Toto laughed, displaying twin rows of sparkling white teeth She came close to Carl and laid her slim dark hand on his arm ’’You mustn't kid Toto.” site said In a tone so Intimate it made shivers of pleasure race up aud down the man's body "H ere1 What s all this yrre’ " a guttural voice inquired roughly Toto looked up calmly "W hy, B ogo'" she exclaimed “ What you mean 'what's all this yere?" she mocked him cleverly. The giant scowled at Carl ' Mesaln' In my business agin, hey?" lie snarled Carl returned his glsre unflinchingly "Y ou ’ll go too far one of these days big boy." he said levellv "W eigh my cotton!" the big man »commanded Deliberately Carl weigh- ed his •cotton and marked in hi* book “Come on out In the flels with me a while, Toto," Bogu ordered "Come out In what flel's with who?" the woman asked with cool Insolence "How do you get that way?" " I ’ll sliow you!" Bogo snarled stepping toward her Carl started for him. but Toto needed no help With a movement so fart a* to be almost Invisible, she whipped tier hand Into her bosom There was an audible click, and a long thin bladed "switch knife protruded straight at the giant’s heart ' He halted as though he had been shot A fright ened smile broke over his face "Aw, cantcha take a Joke?" he muttered placattngly "Not ofla no Jokers!" Toto retort ed Then she said rharply “ Now you get on back In the fie!' where you blong. you big ape!" Bogo glared at Carl, then turned and stalked away into the fields, muttering savagely to himself Hotshot had come up during the exchange of words between Bogo and the woman ' "Ole boogie man s mad agin." he grinned " I lieerd him talkin' to htaseif somethin' terrible " After Hotshot's cotton was weigh ed the three sat In the .-hade and talked As the pickers drifted in to have their cotton weighed each one had a word of warning for Carl Bogo thry told him. was making threats all over the field about what he was going to do to Carl Carl had better be careful Bogo as dangerous and he was treacheron too Better get a pistol, or some thing. and not take any chances With the Intoxicating Toto by his side Carl only smiled at these well meant warnings "Who's afraid of Bogo’ " he ask’d calmly 1 And not until Toto left him, was Carl to encounter Bogo again. — End of Installment Six — Carl has met Tula, who has so completely fascinated him, that bis dreams of sueress in Chleago seem to have temporarily vanished.
