The following morning was glad with
brilliant sunshine, and the foliage glia'ene 1
as though It were beJeweSed. Craddock
had asked only one question concerning
ihelr reception at th bulge, and that with
some sternness He had demanded to
know It Ihe letter which ha-1 seemed them
such a cordial welcome ■ authentic,
and the Norwrgl.ii had replied:
"The letter Is genuine. It was wrltteli
by a crown prince, and was his own sug
gestion. not mine For the present lei
that suffice.”
Their host was bluff, heariy and thor
oughly cordial In Ihe honesty of his nwrn
nature he had not a su*iclon that these
men were not what they s—-med; anl.
Indeed, they were not othe wise. He tret-le
them wholly welcome, and they were pre
sented to the other v.tests without •■xm
mstit or reservation. T e Indies t hey did
rot encounter until evening, and then the
Princess was not present. Craddock
watched Thor nar ow Iy, hut he could not
discover one sign of lmpattenc* or doubt.
The face of Ihe Norwegian was as placid
and as full of cnnthtcncc as It ever had
been.

An hour after the departure of the
merry hunters, the tall flgu-e of Thor *p
peared among the tumor* Vi and spruces
near the house, and presently from their
depths came the weird vode! cry wM l*
once heard from the th-oat of the Nor
wegian would never he forgotten A dog
—a great Dane.—heard It, and harked.

and whined. He **ened to know that the

Ten minutes later the figure of a wo
man appeared in the pith, approaching
the grove, and Thor, observing It clasp

silently. Then a smile glowed in hi* eye*
and he waited, without moving for -ter

HOW TO lilt MU AMI
THROW A LARIAT.
flarrhiri* V* Rather Cosily, Hat a
Pad Cnn Make Ills Own l.arlnt.
A good rawhide larist costs from I* to
s£,. and is, therefore, rather too expensive
for the uvernge boy. but even If It wera
within hi- reach it would be of little u*e
to him. for the regulation laaao la from
forty to fifty feet long, and f r too heavy
for a beginnner to handle. There is per*
ha[* no possession of the cowboys more
subject to variation than his lasso; what
Is exactly suit'd to one serins altogether
unlit tad fur another, asd w ithout hla own
tMrt* ular style of rope a m*n lose* half
his efficiency. I shall, therefore. In this
article, suggeet several styles of rope an i
•*ach boy tnust *elv*t the on which
•eems best adapted to him.
Ordinary clothes lne does not make a
good lasso. It Is rough and raw and
fray* 100 easily. If. however, clothe--
line is experimented wt;h, u*e the .slip
t)oo*i*r shown in h tre 1, or, better, spli 'e
the rope hack, aa ahown in figu e 3 bitten
tape may be braided Into a splendid rop*>
at. 1 oven cotton tape i* an troprovemeni
on lothMtinc. C*ood. sni*H>th C4>rd will
make a very fair lasso, Figure 5 Ito as
a five-t*trand braid, whi'h i** very s rong
and pliable. Take alternately aa<'b out
side strand and cross It over the two
following strands. The four *• and cord
ing shown In figure 6. to my mind, gives
a better rhsp*'** rope than the one Just
deacrliied. The <ll** ram Itself la the
)K?et dee rlptlon i van ki'‘ of four atran )
cording Arrange them •♦' shown, e>.
Rtiand iu.8,4 r ihe one next to it. and
then puii them tight. About iwonty-fv*
feet lu tlie U-t length for a ueginner. To
make the loop In a hraule,i rope las ten
th* •?;'! ba k by means oi th* endleaa
ti** . ’own . . tlpire 2. When the winding
ih c r.i i! •<1 put the end (B) thr-ugn i
loop (Cl aad pull tin* end (A> until the
loop ar.d end have entirely disappeared
beueath the coll. Then cut off the end
(A> ar,*l ta etidieaa tic* la comi*lcje. In
Br4ier t** have the rope run smoothly
cover tae loop w\ih canva* or some other
strong cloth a% shown in figure 4
Ral rawhide ropes are buri*d undcr
i %
n ;.l* ( gre4ae*l with mutton tallow to
make them pliable. Two week** under
ground wi.l not improve a linen or hemp
rope, out ihe greaaing I would Ktrongiv
alviee; only be careful where you haot;
up your lasso when not tt.dng it, for
gren.se has a very penetrating quality.
The nr? of throwing a lariat can not
be reduced to rule. No two men do It
alike If you aek a cowboy to teach you
he will pay that every man miat learn
to do it f4>r hlrmeif. by practice. He
will be quite willing to show you hotv he
t.’irow** th rope, but hi* Ptyie will lx*
quite different from the very next cor.-
boy you meet, and certain to be en
tirely different from th/* method you
rim by adopt. The illupt ration *huw the
hwra leriPtlo position •itr,niid at tli
moment o( delivery; but it can only rug
ges ; pra ice 1 the only mister who
can teach iasso throwing.
[ BLEEDING PILES
A>t All Other Forms of This Com
mon nnd Annoying Disease, fared
l>g the Uvrnuild l*lle Care.
Thousand* of men end women suffer
from some form of piles without either
knowing the exact nature of the trouble,
or knowing It carele sly allow It to run
without using the simple means of a rad
ical cure
The failure of salve* and ointment to
cure pile* has led many sufferers to be
lieve the only pc-minent cur, lo la i
surgl al operation, but surgical operations
are dangerous to life snd moreover very
expen.lv* an.l bv no means always o
even often esi .e.sful
The safest ard surest way to cure any
case, of piles whether Itching protruding
or bleeding, la to u.e the Pvramd l’l e
Cure, composed of healing vegetable oils,
and absolutely Ire, from mineral poisons
and opiate*.
Mr William Hamlscbu of Pittsburg.
Pa . after .ufDrmg severely from bleed
ing plies, writes aa follows;
"1 take pleasure writing these few lines
to let you know 'bat I did not s’eep for
three months, except for a hort time
each night because of a bad case of bleed
ing pile; I was down in bed and doc
tor, ,lld me no good
"A good brother told me of the Pyramid
Pile Cure ard I bouxht from mi and ug
gUt three 50-cent box** They complete
ly cured me. and I will soon bo able to
g to my work again."
The Pyramid Pile Cura Is not only the
.•alee; nnd surest pile remedy, but It 1-
by far the widest known and most popu
lar, because so muny thousands have
tried It and found It exactly as repre
sented.
Every physician and druggist In the
country knows th* Pyramid Pile Cure and
what It will do.
t*f ltd to Pyramid Drug Company. M vr
shall Mich., (or little book on "Cause
and Cure of Piles.” mailed free to any
address or. better, gc: a 4t>-cent b'X of
th* remedy Itself at the nearest drug
■ tore and try It to-night.
