Frantic WithPain Doan’* However Brought Complete Recovery and Trouble Has Never Returned “My kidneys were weakened by ex posure in Alaska,” says Hermann Schrader, 32S Park Ave., Hoboken, N. J., “and my misery at times be came so great I thought I would lose my mind. I had terrible pains in my back, and a con stant desire to urinate. My back felt as if it were in sections with each crushing against the other. Finally I was ta ken desperately ill. It seemed as if something were crushing out my life. Before long I passed a gravel stone the size of a pea. If the pain had been any more intense I think I would Mr. Schrader have died. I was having practically no flushing of the kidneys and my weight had reduced from 178 pounds to 125. The doctor told me I had gravel and small stones filling up the passages of the bladder. After all of this I began to use Doan's Kidney Pills and soon improved. In a short time I was well and my cure has lasted fifteen years. Today I am in perfect health.” Sworn to before me, W. P.

CROOKED TRAILS STRAIGHT Mlllam JV&cLeodJZsiize- COPYRIGHT. BY G.W.DILLINGHAM COTXlF’Alsrr CHAPTER XII—Continued. —17— They struck into the mountains, fol lowing a cattle trail that wound up ward with devious twists. The man rode, and the girl walked in front with the elastic lightness, the unconscious flexuous grace of poise given her body by an outdoor life.' By dusk they were up in the headwaters of the creeks. The resilient muscles of the girl had lost their spring. She moved wearily, her feet dragging heavily so tbit some times she staggered when the ground was rough. Not once had the man of fered lief the horse. He meant to be fresh, ready for any emergency that might come. Moreover, it pleased his small soul to see the daughter of Luck Cullison fagged and exhausted but still answering the spur of his urge. The moon was up before they came upon a tent shining in the cold silvery light. Beside it was a sheetiron stove, a box, the ashes of a camp fire, and a side of bacon hanging from the limb of a stunted pine. Cautiously they stole forward. The camp was for the time deserted. No doubt its owner, a Mexican sheep- herder In the employ of Fendrick and Dominguez, was out somewhere with his flock. Kate cooked a meal and the convict ate. Thejgirl was too tired and anx ious to care for food, blit she made herself take a little. They packed the saddlebags with bacon, beans, coffee and flour. Blackwell tightened again the cinches and once more the two took the trail. They made camp In a pocket open ing from a gulch far up in the hills. With her own renta he fastened her hands behind her and tied the girl se curely to the twisted trunk of a Joshua tree. To make sure of her he lay on the rope, both hands clinched to the rifle. In five minutes lie was asleep, tint it was long before Kate could es cape from wakefulness. At last she fell into troubled catnaps. From one of these she awoke to see that the morning light was sifting through the darkness. She was shiver ing with the chill of an Arizona moun tain night. Turning her body, the girl’s eyes fell upon her captor. He was looking at her in the way that no de cent man looked at a woman. Her Im pulse was to scream, to struggle to her feet and run. What did he mean? What was he going to do? But something warned her this would precipitate the danger. She called upon her courage and tried to still the fearful tumult in her heart. Somehow she succeeded. A scornful, confident pride flashed from her eyes Into his. It told him that for his life he dared not lay a finger upon her in the way of harm. And he knew it was true, knew that if he gave way to his desire no hole under heaven would be deep enough to hide him from the ven- gennoe of her friends. He got sullenly to his feet. “Come. We’ll he going.” Within the hour they saw some of ids hunters. A wisp of smoke rose from the basin below. Grouped about it were three men eating breakfast. “Don’t make a sound,” warned Blackwell. His rifle covered her. With all her sou! she longed to cry for help. But she dared not take the risk. Even ns tlie two on the edge of the bowl with drew from sight one of the campers rose and sauntered to a little grove where the ponies were tethered. The distance was too far to make sure, but something in the gait made the girl sure that the man was Curly. Her hands went out to him in a piteous lit tle gesture of appeal. She was right. It was Curly. He was thinking of her at that moment despairingly, but no bell of warning rang within to tell him she was so near and in such fearful need of him. Twice during the morning did the refugee attempt to slip down into the parched desert that stretched toward Sonora and safety. But the cordon set about him was drawn too close. Each time a loose-seated rider lounging in the saddle with a rifle In his hands drove them back. The second attempt was almost disastrous, for the convict was seen. The hum of a bullet whistled past Ills ears as he and his prisoner drew back into the chaparral and from thence won back to cover. Kate, drooping with fatigue, snw that fear rode Blackwell heavily. He was trapped and he knew that by the Arizona code his life was forfeit and would be exacted of him should lie be taken. He had not the hardihood to game it out In silence, but whined com plaints, promises and threats. He tried to curry favor with her, to work upon her pity, even while his furtive glances told her that be was wondering wheth er he would have a better chance If he sacrificed her life. From gulch to arroyo, from rock- cover to pincclad hillside he was driven In his attempts to break the narrowing circle of grim hunters that hemmed him. And with each failure, with every passing hour, the terror in him mounted. He would have wel comed life imprisonment, would have sold the last vestige of manhood to save the worthless life that would soon be snuffed out unless he could evade his hunters till night and in the dark ness break through the line. He know now that it had been a fatal mistake to bring the girl with him. He might have evaded Bolt’s posses, but now every man within fifty miles was on the lookout for him. His rage turned against Kate because of it. Yet even in those black outbursts he felt that he must cling to her as his only hope of saving himself. He had made another mistake in lighting a camp fire during the morning. Any fool ought to have known that the smoke would draw his hunters as the smell of carrion does a buzzard. Now he made a third error. Dou bling back over an open stretch of hill side, he was seen again and forced into the first pocket that opened. It proved to be a blind gulch, one offering no exit at the upper end but a stiff rock climb to a bluff above. He whipped off Ills coat and gave it to Kate. “Put It on. Quick!" Surprised, she slipped It on. “Now ride back out and cut along the edge of the hill. You’ve got time to make it all right before they close in if you travel fast. Stop once—just once—and I’ll drop you in your tracks, Now git!” She saw his object in a flash. Wear ing his gray felt hat and his coat, the pursuers would mistake hef for him. They would follow her—perhaps shoot He Turned to Run as the Other Fired. her down. Anyhow, It would be a di version to draw them from him. Meanwhile he would climb the cliff and slip away unnoticed. The danger of what she had to do stood out quite clearly, but ns a chance to get away from him she wel comed it gladly. From the lip of the gulch she swung abruptly to the right. Her horse stumbled and went down Just as a bullet flew over her head. Be fore she was free of the stirrups strong hands pinned her shoulders to the ground. She heard a glad, startled cry. The rough hands became imme diately gentle. Then things grew black. The last she remembered was that the mountains were dancing up and down in an odd fashion.- Her eyes opened to see Curly. She was in his arms and his face was broken with emotions of love and ten derness. “You’re not hurt?” he Implored. “No.” “He didn’t—mistreat you?” His voice was trembling as he whispered It “No—no." And at that she broke down. A deep sob shook her body—and another. She buried her head on his shoulder and wept a . a • * * * * Without losing an instant the con vict set himself at the climb. His haste, the swift glances shot behind him, the appalling dread Unit made his nerves ragged, delayed his speed by dissipating the singleness of his ener gy. His face and hands were torn with eatelaw, his knee§ bruised by a slip against a sharp Jut of quurtz. When he reached the top he was panting and shaken. Before he had moved a dozen steps a man came out of the brush scarce seventy-five yards away and called to him to surrender. He flung his rifle to place and fired twice. The man staggered and steadied himself. A shell had jammed and Blackwell could not throw It out. He turned to run as the other fired. But he was too late. He stumbled, tripped and went down full length. The man that hud shot him waited for him to rise. The convict did not move. Cautiously the wounded hunt er came forward, his eyes never lifting from the inert sprawling figure. Even now he half expected him to spring up, life and energy In every tense muscle. Not till he stood over him, till he saw the carelessly flung limbs, the uncouth twist to the neck, could he believe that so slight a crook of the finger had sent swift death across the plateau. The wounded man felt suddenly sick. Leaning against a rock, he stead ied himself til! the nausea was past. Voices called to him from the plaiD be low. He answered and presently cir cled down into the gulch which led to the open. At the gulch mouth he came on a little group of people. One glance told him ail he needed to know. Kate Cullison was crying in the arms of Curly Flandrau. Simultaneously a man galloped up, flung himself from his horse and took the young woman from her lover. “My little girl I" he cried in a voice that rang with love. Luck had found his ewe lamb that was lost. It was Curly who first saw the man approaching from the gulch. “Hello, Cass! Did you get him?” • Fendrick nodded wearily. “Yep. He’s up there.” The sheepman’s hand swept toward the bluff. “You’re wounded?” "Got me In the shoulder. Nothing serious, I judge." Cullison swung around. "Sure about that, Cass?” It was the first time for years that he had called the other by his first name except in irony. “Sure." “Let’s have a look at the shoulder." After he had done what he could for it Luck spoke bluffly. “This dashed feud is off, Cass. You’ve wiped the slate clean. When you killed Black- well you put me out of a hostile camp.” “I'm glad—so glad. Now we’ll all be friends, won’t we?” Kate cried. Cass looked at her and at Curly, both of them radiant with happiness, and his heart ached for what he had missed. But he smiled none the less. “Suits me If it does you." He gave one hand to Luck and the other to his daughter. Curly laughed gayly. “Everybody satisfied, I reckon.” CHAPTER XIII. Loose Threads. Those who knew about Sam’s share in the planning of the Tin Cup bold- up kept their mouths close. All of the men implicated In the robbery were ddiid except Dutch. Cullison used his influence to get the man a light sen tence, for he knew that he was not a criminal at heart. In return Dutch went down the line without so much as breathing Sam’s name. Luck saw to It that Curly got all the credit of frustrating the outlaws in their attempt on the Flyer and of cap turing them afterward. In the story of tlie rescue of Kate he played up Flandrau’s part in the pursuit at the expense of the other riders. For Sep tember was at hand and the young man needed all the prestige he could get. The district attorney had no choice but to go on with the case of the Stnte versus Flandrau on a charge of rustling horses from the Bar Double M. But public sentiment was almost a unit In favor of the defendant. The evidence of the prosecution was not so strong as it had been. All of his accomplices were dead and one of the men Implicated had given It out in his last moments that the young man was not a party to tlie crime. Tlie man who had owned the feed corral had sold out and gone to Colorado. Tlie hotel clerk would not swear posi tively that the prisoner was the man lie had seen with the other rustlers. Curly had one important asset no jury could forget. It counted for a good deal that Alec Flandrau, Billy Mackenzie, and Luck Cullison were known to be backing him. but it was worth much more that his wife of a week sat beside him in the courtroom. Every look and motion of tlie girl-wife radiated love for the young scamp who had won her. And since they were tender-hearted old frontiersmen they did not intend to spoil her joy. Moreover, society could afford to take chances with this young fellow Flan drau. Long before they left the box each member of the jury knew that he was’ going to vote for acquittal. It took the jury only one ballot to find a verdict of not guilty. The judge did not attempt to stop the up roar of glad cheers that shook the building when the decision was read. He knew It was not the prisoner so much they were cheering as the brave girl who had sat so pluckily for three days beside the husband she had made a man. From the courtroom Curly walked out under the blue sky of Arizona a free man. But he knew that the best of his good fortune was that lie did not go alone. For all the rest of their lives her firm little steps would move beside him to keep Will true and steady. He could not go wrong now, for be was anchored to a responsibility that was a continual joy aud wonder to him. (THE END.)
