ALMOST “CUT IT OUT” ' By A. F. BOMNEY. With elbows wide spread on the top rail Os the ya wd hence, hands under slean-Rhaven chln,.h* smoked lastly on bis "paper pipe." Hte big spurs hung Idle on the high heels of hts boot*), the empty pistol soabbitnl clung to his lithe hip. Thwajcabbarrt was decorated for the owner of ft bed artistic taste and talent, white he lacked the language to express the Idea in such worda; he had “Inst fixed It up to lock nlcA,’’ he said. It had been a lazy day for him, one of the few which had com* Into hie life, and he reflected morosely on the axtreme eonrfort of a life of toilless as.se. From the flue elevation of a man of leisure he surveyed those of his own craft as they worried the sul len cattle past the place, their explos iv* English temed'down tn deference to the divinity that ruled there, and the "company.” For once he was aloof from his own kind, a guest of the “boss.” There was a consideration which added to the habitual scowl on hts hrow, the Inevitable return to the saddle; the weary night guard, the frenzied chase after the stamping herd. The retribution for a flaw days of ease he saw looming in the tomorrow, a whole perspective of tomorrows. In fact, and unconsciously the smoke of his cigarette oozing from lips and nostrils was mixed and blended with his one persistent soliloquy: "Aw, cut It out!” His savage glance now took in for the first time the girl, who was watch-* tng him with amused Interest. It gave him a queer, not unpleasant sensation, and conscious of height, weight and a certain savage beauty of head, he drew himself up, taking a pull at his neglected smoke. The most of the herd was now past the house, and the girl and the owner’s son went out through the rude gate to the corail near by. where some Calves were being branded. As they passed the taciturn one the owner’s son said, pleasantly: "This is all very novel and Interesting to ua, while constant repetition has, I presume, made it monotonous to you.” After deep thought the man deftly rolled another smoke, and started to answer, when Ms eyes met those of the girl, deep, blue eyes, whfeh laughed cut from a pink and white face framed tn a tangle of golden curls, the bewildering combination shaded by a flower-bedecked summer hat. His heart struck his throat, and setting hts teeth In his inoffensive cigarette he growled: “Aw, cut it out!" And then there earns a distant ye!!, mingled with the sound of pounding hoofs, and turning to look he saw a maddened steer charging down on the two, the bright crimson of the girl's sash a focus for hts murderous efforts The sullen-eyed man spat out the roll of paper hts teeth held and, sweep tng his big hat from hts band, sprang for the fence, which he cleared at a bound, feeling for his gun a» he landed on the other side, to give vent to an untranslatable snarl of rage as his hand groped over the empty scabbard. The steer was within a few feet of the glaring red thing now, never pausing at the sight of so common a thing as a cowboy, until with a savage “Aw, cut It out!" the man hurled himself on the animal's heed, giweplng the nose with one hand and a horn with the other. As the muzzle of the brute was driven into the sand there came the cracking of pistol shot: but the bullets, spent from long flight, only ang red the brute the mom. Then: “Aw, ent—" and merciful ob ttvlnn cut it out for him He lay for a king time dimly eon scions n* life not remembering and not raring, only wondering a little re gsndlng his surroundings.
