BEGIN HERE TODAY.
The "Nervous Wreck, ’» an ac
centric young easterner, drives
Sally Morgan, daughter of s Mon
tana ranch owner, over a rough,
uncertain trail from the ranch to
the railroad station.
They run out of gasoline and
the occupants of * passing car
refuse to lend them any. The
Wreck takes five gallons at the
point of a gun and drives on.
Next morning, they stop at a
ranch and meet Charlie McSween,
the foreman, who ie In a quan
dary because he has lost his
cooks Just before the arrival of
the owner. Sally cooks a break
fast which so please* McSween
that he takes a wheel off their
car In order to keep them on the
ranch. Forced to accept the in
evitable, Sally takes a nap.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY.
Probably she dreamed. Hut ahe was
nevy quite sure of it, lx-< a use If it
began ns a dream it ended as some
thing that really happened. There wan
a rhythmic throbbing In her ears, and
as she came slowly and reluctantly to
consciousness It grew steadily louder.
There was a mechanical regularity
about It that reminded her of the
windmill at the Bar-M, hut she real
ised an instant Inter that she was
not In her own home. And it wasn’t
a windmill, either; It was more like
an engine Her eyes Were blinking
now. Why, It was an automobile!
Sally uncurled herself and straight
ened up In the Mg chair If Henry
William had resurrected that flivver,
If he had found that wheel, if he had
been In a fight with Charely McSween
well, then ho wiis going to have
Nmt first -cUum trouble on bis hands
Her ears were sharper now; she was
completely awake. She liM»-ru d a
second or two longer. No; it waa not
the flivver. It was a different kind
of an engine, more orderly and dig
nified—wealthier.
She leaned forward and pushed
aside a corner of the curtain. The
thing that made the noise hud Just
come to a atop outside. Sally stared
at it with round eyes.
"Why. 1 pelleve—Oh. it la!"
She flipped out of the chair with
the Ntidden speed of a cat and raced
In the direction of the kitchen.
“They’ve trailed us!” she gasped,
as she ran.
CHAI’THH VIII
HIDING OUT.
As Sully charged into the kitchen
by way of the pantry, the Wreck
was corning in through the door that
opened on ths yard. He stared at
her in plain surprise, he did not know'
she < otild run so fast.
"What's ths hurry?** hs asked,
mildly. r
‘ We re trailed!'*
"Trailed? What do you mean?”
"Have they seen you?" she panted.
"Who? What are you talking
shout? I haven't seen anybody hut
spme horses down In the corral.**
"Well, we're trailed all right, Henry
Williams. They're out In the front
now*!"
"Who’s out in front?"
"The people you stuck up the big
car"
The Wreck lifted bis eyebrows,
looked thoughtful for sn Instant, then
began atpiarlng his shoulders.
"oh. all right," he said. *‘We'll
slick ’em up again.
Sally groaned.
VWe've got to get out of here," she
said, sharply. "We've got to make
a getaway We*U get a couple of
horses down at the corral before they
are us You’ll Just have to ride"
It was a despairing thing to con
template the Wreck on horseback, but
It seemed the only chance.
"Oh. 1 can ride," he said. *'! can
ride anything. Only It's easier to
stick 'em up "We’ll take their car!"
Sally shook her head angrily.
"No. you Idiot!" she cried "We’ll
take horses. If we get a chance at
them. Hurry!"
She had seised him by the hand
and was dragging him In the dlrec- j
tlon of the door when In w nlk«-d

eyed hint appraising!* If the Wreck |
Insisted on whipping him, this ,
seemed to be the chosen time And

Charley, addressing the Wreck. 1

outside **
' Huh*" Inquired the Wreck
"Baggage" repeated Charley. "The
boss Is here"
Sally and the Wreck exchanged n
slew glance Then she pinched his
fingers tightly, and he knew it was
mesnt to be some sort of a signal.
"Where are your men? Can’t
they handls baggage?" she demand
ed
"The hoys ain't here, ma’am So
I'm askin' him." with a run! toward
the Wreck
"Well, my husband doesn’t handle
baggage."
Aksii she pinched the Wreck's
fingers.
"What’s the reason he don’t handle
baggage?" Inquired Charley. "Ain't
It dignified?"
"He'a-he's not strong." ssld Sally.
The Wreck began to squirm and
look truculent.
"I admit he ain't exactly powerful
lookin', ma'am. But a while back he
ssld be was goln* to lick me, s.* I
thought maybe he could rassb- a
couple of trunks without sustalnin
any peraonal damage."
••Ntt*: you'll have to get somebody
else." ssld Sally.
Charley made no effort to conceal
thet disgust in his soul He Inspect
ed the Wreck from his hoi n*rimm»*«l
spectacles to Ms shoes, following the
examination with a gesture of con
"Seeln* as your w ife won't let vou "
he remarked, "1 suppose me and the
chauffeur 'll manage "
The Wreck ne>er knew how be
managed to maintain any self-con
trol, hut he blamed 1t all on ally.
All he did was to shout:
"If you think I'm a baggage
smasher, you Just wait and see what
happens to > our dishes"

plans to revenge himself for the in
sults of Charley McHween.
“Of all the awful luck," continued
Sally, in an awed whisper. “To
ithink that we walked right Into his
[hands. I knew there was something
queer about this place the minute 1
took a look around the house.”
“Well, what do we do now? Swipe
the horses?"
Sally considered, then shook her
head slowly.
“No; I think we’d better wait now.
1 don’t believe It’s quite as bad as I
thought. You see, they didn't trail
us here, after all. They were com
ing. anyhow. Probably they don’t
know, we’re here; If they did. we’d
have heard from It before this. We’ve
got to figure this out now—carefully.
Tho main thing Is to keep them from
seeing you. That's why I wouldn’t
let you go to help with the bag
gage.”
He wan not a fcood hand at playing
a waiting game, and said so. He

taking the big car. a feat which pre

SALLY.
may. But Sally sharply ordered him
to put the idea out of ilia head.
The situation bewiideed hjr, but
she did not think it had yet reached
a crisis. Nobody In the car had seen
her; it was very unlikely that they
oven knew the*** hold-up man had a
girl with him. Bo long as she could
keep the Wreek out of their sight
and as long as the flivver remained
locked up in a shed, there was still a
chance to figure soniehtlng out. But
how utterly exasperating It was! Just
when she wns satisfied that they had
blundered into a safe hideout, she
discovered that they had really walk
ed into the lion's den.
"The thing to do, of course, is to
keep them from seeing you." she
said "You’ll have to stay in the
Kitchen all the time. I’m afraid. I
don’t suppose they'll coo in here."
"They rc not going to coop me up
In a kitchen," ho growled. "Besides,
It was dark last night, anyhow. They
didn’t get a good look at me. I had
my cap pulled down."
Charley came into the kitchen
again.
"We got that baggage In, thanks to
nobody that washes dishes," he said.
"And now, ma'am, 111 have to ask
you to hustle dinner. They're real
hungry"
"They'll have dinner Just as soon as
1 can get It," Mild Bally, promptly.
The Wreck regarded her with a
look of amastd disappointment. Was
she going to turn to and cook for a
hog? it was enough to he drafted
as cook for an unknown, but to do
chores for your enemy was humilia
tion. He was about to speak when
she stopped him with a look.
"Seems they didn't get any regular
breukfaet, except crackers, which
they had with 'em." explained Char
ley. "That leaves ’em kind of hungry.
They got hung up on the road, in
fact, they got held up"
"You don't mean It!" exclaimed
Snllv, who was digging Into the flour
barrel, as a first step in ths direc
tion of making biscuits.
"Oh. it don* tseem like It was seri
ous. ma atn. That is. there wasn’t
anybody got shot Feller Just took
watch* s and valuables and left ’em
flat without any gas"
Sally ventured a look at the Wreck.
He seemed to be curiously dated.
"It s been done before," said Char
ley, who was slightly bored. "It
