Ulveu two lupu ji ml ii wonitm you'll
most always liuvp a roiuiiuvo; two wo-
hii'ii ami ono man art* apt to proiluoi!
a riot, hut tako two womoti ami two
lnoii, all in lull 1 , mill ovary ono of 'em
bein' a uiisllt, as you might say, and
it's like a two ring olrous—you oan't
possibly take in all tile details.
When tills lioro Miss Daphne Don
aldson lirst throws in with the west
it's with no notion exeopt to forglt
past unpleasantnesses which. I learn
afterward, was i-attsed liy her havin'
Pullunui tastes and her husband hav
in' a day eoaoli poekethook.
Course, in order to win her lie puts
up a bigger front than his hank ho-
eount rails for, and when he oau't live
tip to 1he premises sin* pleads nnnsiip-
port and requests tier maiden name.
So when we first see her she's got
both the dlvmvo ami said maiden
name and lms fiow west to escape the
gossip auii seaudai ensuin’ from the
sunie,
I( took a special trip to freight her
trunks out to the raneii, ami she had
elotlies tllilt made tile men set up and
take notiee and the women's eyes turn
green with envy.
She shore lias the heart broke look,
and she ain't been here a week before
I see plain that Johnny Duval is goin’
to lie first aid to the injured.
You see, tile biggest part, of this
raneii is owned by a man hack east
named Stoner, who was her ennflden-
tinl adviser, and he tells her just to
come and make herself at home here
till silili time as she feels like faein’
the world again.
Now. Mary Talbert, whose folks have
charge of tins outfit, is one of them
quiet, praetieal girls who only know
one way to hive—that's with a seeret,
consumin' passion.
Secret, that is only to the object of it.
and I'oiisiiniiti’ all her time in tbinkin’
about it. Tlie object of Mary's devo
tion was Johnny Duval.
That, sueli is laid enough.
Rut. about three weeks after Miss
Daphne arrives Mr. Talbert gits a let
ter from tills Stoner sayin' lie can’t
come out to look after some matters
as lie does once cacti year, hut in scud-
in' a substitute who will make a new
contract with Talbert and attend to all
business for him.
I drive in to meet (ills duck, whose
name is Smithson, and 1 find a lull./
slim fellow dressed like them pictures
in the buck of the magazine where it
says:
“If you want to feel hi ease in any
society, wear" etc., and wiio can ask
more questions than a jackleg lawyer?
When we reach the house Daphne
and Mary are on the east gallery. 1
make 'em acquainted with Mr. Smith-
son.
Daphne is stundin' foolin’ with a
chain she always wears around her
neck with some kind of a little hoodus
on tlie end of it.
“How do yon ilo?" she says, noddin'
tier head, indifferent. Then siie turns
with a rattle of silk auil walks in the
house.
"Glad to meet you.” says Mary, hold-
in' out her hand. "Have you all had
your dinner?”
Wlieu we say we haven't, she gits up.
smoothin' out her fresh gingham dress,
and goes in to set dinner out.
That was tlie difference between 'em.
In a week's time Mr. Smithson looks
like lie's forgot he was sent here for
any purpose but to make lore to Mary,
who is real nice to him to keep from
allowin' how she hates to see Johnny
and Daphne together so much.
But. listen, that's not the worst.
Wluit does file glass widow do hut
begin to build a stack at tills here
Smithson, who don't seem to notice it.
he's that took up with Mary Talbert.
It was like slngin' “Three Blind
Mice.” They all fell in with the same
words to ihe same tune, but only pro
duced a jumble in the end.
I watch ’em pretty close and observe
more or leas human nacher in all of
’em. *
From tlie very first I know why
Mary Is treatin' Smithson so nice. Imt
if takes a long time for me to glean
that Johnny is playin’ the same game
with Daphne because he don’t think
Mary cares for him.
I figgered dial litis Daphne didn’t
take to western ways and folks, and it
wasn't so much Smithson as them hack
east garments of liis'n that was hold-
ill' her spellbound.
Ami It took this here Smithson just
n month to do what Stoner usually
attends to. grittin' hack by return mail.
Before he leaves we begin to work
the cattle. The first day we rounded
tip the north Cross S. anil course the
women wanted to go on tlie drive.
Johnny Duval was on Ids fanciest
cuttin' horse. Don. and he was shnwin’
off the least mile, as cowboys will do
with buck east folks lookin' on.
Smithson was swell in his tidin' togs,
with lltlle race spurs, and Ills mount
was a big. handsome hay. but he was
powerful in the way.
About the middle of (lie mornin'
Johnny works hard for five minutes
tryin’ to cut a big jar headed yearltn'
out of tlie herd, liiui when al last Hie
steer take* to tlie bushes Smithson
: spurs up ami turns him right back in
the herd, not knowln' enough to see
whore the brute should go.
••U't Idm go," yells Johnny, and rips
out four uncompliinenlury words which
wouldn't huii sounded so had to
Smithson If tlie first mid fourth hadn't
been "you."
Daphne rides over to Smithson at
once, her face plumb sen riot.
"I ililiik,” slic says, dignified, “you'll
better take Mary and me home."
So lie takes tlie ladies in tlie ranch,
and that’s the lust I see of 'em til!
that evenin', when us buys come up
from tlie brandin' pens and the two
women are on the gallery by tlielr-
selves.
Johnny Duval nut relies right up and
apologizes for losln' ills patience.
Daphne shrugs her shoulders mill
says nothin'. But Mary looks at him
with sympathy.
“It's pretty hard work to have to do
twice on account of somebody's ig
norance," she says.
Johnny looks at Mary, grateful.
’Flu’ll Daphne bolls over.
"You western men can do just one
tiling," she says, scornful. "You cun
work cattle with all the riilln' and
other tilings that appertain. Rut put
one of you hack in civilization and
you'll have to drive a dray for a
livin’.”
"Poor people 'have poor ways, but
ain't that a honest way to make a llv-
in’?” says Johnny and turns on ids
heel, spurs Jinglin', and goes in the
house.
I could see Mary was pleased plumb
through.
The rest of us hoys says nothin', and
directly Mary goes out to u mesqulte
liiisli a few feet from the house and
picks off a leaf.
She comes hack to the foot of the
gallery steps and says: "Somebody
inline tills. I'm goin' to tell Miss
Daphne's fortune.”
Just then Smithson saunters out, and
I says, "I've limned it."
"Rig house, little house, pigpen,
kitchen," says Mary, pluckin' off a
prong and throwin’ it away with each
"house."
"Rig house, little house, pigpen,
kitchen.” 1
"Rig house, little house”—
"Mr. Smithson," I says.
"You're goin' to marry Mr. Smithson
anil live in a little house," says Mary,
lookin' at Daphne and laughin'.
"That leaf had one too many prongs,
I’m afraid." says Smithson. "How
about it. Miss DonaldsonV"
"Love," begins Daphne, toyin’ with
that chain of hers. "Line is like hap
piness and every tiling elsi*- it lias a
relative value, it depends on who is
in the 'little house.’" She gils up and
goes lo the iloor; then she stops.
"The ‘little houses' where love ex
ists." she says, lookin' straight at
Smithson, "are more complete than
the 'big houses' that uriqonly for show
and to keep, puce wjth tile bunch."
Then she walks in the house.
“I'd about as soon mine would come
out 'pigpen' if it couldn't lie 'hie
house.' I've lived in little houses and
kitchens nil my days,” Mary says, with
a sigh.
"You'll never know the relative val
ue lill you've tried both," says Smith-
son to Mary. When she lias gone in
tlie house, too, lie turns to me.
"Women, my friend, are alike the
world over." lie says, sorter bitter.
"But Just the same we can't do with
out them."
"No, sir," I replies eniphutie.
The next day that blamed little
pitchin’ "baby” horse of mine turns
over with me and breaks my ankle,
and lireukin' that leg done for me
what one of these here Japanese
screens they set in the corner of the
stage does for the show business.
They put me to bed in the cast room, I
which lias windows openin' oil the,
front gallery, and because an Invalid
is expected to go to sleep early I
heard somethin’ that night i never
should have got on to otherwise.
The pain laid got easy, and I was
dozin’ u little when voices wakisl me.
It was not light enough to see the
faces, hut a woman was speakiu’ when
I commenced to listen.
”1 suppose Elmer Stoner sent you
out here, too?" she says.
“Yes," says the man, “hilt I'll swear
to you I didn't know you were here
milil 1 was within live miles of the
ra licit.”
"And then it was too late to turn
back," she says.
“Not if 1 had knowil you were ilirtin’
with a eowpuncher who is far beneath
you every way. And so soon!" lie adds
in a hard voice.
"The cow-puncher and that little Tul-
lierl person are wrapped up in each
other, so your flirtation won't do yon
any good," she retort*.
"Oh. Hurry," she goes on. “you only
wanted to he rid of me!” And 1 hear
her voice calch.
“Daphne, it's so like you, dear. You
get a divorce from me. run away and
hide, amuse yourself with another man
and then lay the Illume on me. Now,
I don’t iiiiuii tlie illume,” lie says.
"God knows I've been lonely with
out it, hut 1 wonder if we could patch
them up—our lives.you know. The little
Talbert is a poor substitute for you.”
I propped myself up on my elbow.
A Idg, round, red moon was Just
peepin' over the edge of the world, and
a man was loanin' against a post of tlie
gallery with Ids arms around a wom
an. whose head was down on Ids shoul
der.
“Anyhow." she says, diddlin' at her
eyes with a little white speck of a
handkerchief, "then- never was any
one else am] there never will lie.”
“VYe'll go home tomorrow,” he says,
soothin'.
The i-urtuhi ought to come down ns
they kiss, but there wasn't none, and
that moon was so bright i just com
promised by pullin' the sheet up over
lay head.
