BEGIN HERE TODAY The “Nervous Wreck.” an eccentric youne ecstemer. i6 driving: Sally Morgan from her father's ranch to the station when they run out of gasoline. At the point of a gun. the Wreck takes five gallons from a passing car. They are held captive at a ranch owned by Mr. Underwood, who was in the ear which they held up. They finally _ escape from the ranch, run into a camp of real bandits, are captured a second time, then escape again. Fleeing from the bandit camp, they are suddenly confronted by Sheriff Boh Wells. Wells, who is Sally's fiance, is at the head of a posse searching for the ‘bandits” who held up Underwood. Sally breaks off her engagement with the sheriff and says she is going to marry the Wreck. The Wreck, with the upper hand, orders the sheriff and his men to put his ovirtumed car on its feet. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XXV —And the Flivver Rolls Tt'" IHE Wreck bossed the job. He took an arrogant tone, pari___J tieularly toward the sheriff, and Sally was glad. She was glad because the bossing job gave the Wreck something to do, and in its performance he forgot his embarrassment about other things, at least temporarily. He was terse and confident in his commands. Not a finger would he lift himself; he had four men work ing for him. It took their united strength to put the flivver on four wheels. Bob Wells wanted to get it over with and be on the trail again. “Not that way!” jailed the Wreck, sharply. “Want to buckle a wheel for me? Y r 6u can’t push her sideways.” Sally listened to this with a sense of satisfaction. The flivver was back in the abandoned road, but Henry Williams was not 'through with his helpers. They expected that he would fill up the gasoline tank, turn the crank and say good-by. But he said it would have to be rolled for quite a distance, perhaps all the way to the main road. The sheriff Bcowled. “You ran her in here, didn’t you?” he inquired. "Why can’t you run her out?” “Ran her in here in the> dark,” said the Wreck. "Didn’t know what chancy i was running. Won't run ’em agsin. Roll her.” "We haven’t time.”

"No? Well, I have.” So they rolled her. The V/rock condescended to sit in the fliv.ver while they rolled the thing up a heavy grade, with Bob Wells sweating and cursing under his breath and the members of.his posse silent ly bending themselves to the humilfc ating task. "THEN THE ENGAGEMENT’S OFF, I SUPPOSE.” On the down grades the Wreck dismounted and let the posse do the steering. Then it was he found himself walking behind, with Sally Morgan at his side. Proximity gave him a queer thrill. He stole glances at her .when he thought she was unaware of it. Engaged! He blushed whenever •he remembered it. Os course, it was all a mere makeshift. But tfeere was no illusion about the breaking of her engagement to Bob Wells, if it had ever really existed. And with that broken, Sally was free, affianced to nobody, except theoretically to himself. Perhaps it would be necessary to have a formal talk about it. He dreaded the thought. He was not a coward In

most things, but in this he was an utter craven. It made matters a great deal worse because he had achieved a discovery —he did not know how he was going to get along without Sally Morgan to take care of him. It was one of those insidious influences that fasten a grip, before you are aware of it He leaned on her. She might not know it, b’t he did. Os course, he might shake, it off after he returned to Pittsburgh; but he could not be sure. He walked behind the flivver in a pleasant but forbidden dream, with Sally walking at his side. “Hey, you boneheads!” He would rouse himself like that. "Keep her in the road. What are you trying -to do; put her up a tree?” Then he would look at Sally, his raood would soften and the old embarrassment would descend on him like a shroud. "Well get out of here, all right, Sally. Don't you worry.” “I'm not worrying." "I mean about—” he caught himself. v “About what, Henry?" "About afterwards." “Oh!” Sally had long silences herself. She wished it were all over; that Bob Wells and his posse would hurry up and take themselves off and vanish absolutely out of the picture. She found no joy whatever in the peonage to which the sheriff and his posse were subjected; she believed that, most of it was unnecessary, even from the standpoint of punishment. But at the same time she did not want to be left with Henry Williams. That was the woman of it. “Don’t you worry,” repeated the" Wreck, suddenly bold. “You don’t have to —Hey’ Don’t you know which way to turn the wheels on a curve? Want to upset her again? Want to wreck her?” Sally looked at the Wreck. “I don’t have to what,” she asked. “Oh.” He was caugh* unawares. “Why, you don’t have to—That is, unless—That’s not it, either. What I mean is, you're not really engaged.” It was a reckless speech and he felt instantly that he ought not to have made it. Sally, was looking straight ahead. "Os course not,” she said, in a low voice. The Wreck cursed himself. He knew that he was clumsty, and yet he Was desperately groping for an understanding. “What I mean,” he said, “is that it’s working backwards, if you can understand. First we were supposed to be married. Then that’s off. Then we’re supposed to be just engaged.

And then that's —for the love of Mike! Don’t put your shoulder against that mudguard. You'll bend ;t! Get hold of the body. And shove. Shove! Don’t they grow any brains 4n Montana?” Ttie sheriff and the posse glared—and shoved. "And then?” remarked Sally. The Wreck remembered that he had' started something. "Why, then the engagement’s off. I suppose,” he said, as he glared at the posse. “Which leaves everything exactly where it was at the start.” There! He had reached the subject at last. He had dealt with it boldly, perhaps roughly; bufhe had not dodged It. Sally's eyes had a queer, uncertain look. There was something blurring, even when 3he looked at an object as plain and familiar as the flivver. Silly, of course; but she could not get the blur out of her eyes unless she rubbed them, and she scorned that, with the Wreck at her elbow. “Let go of that steering wheel!” commanded the Wreck. “Can't you see that she'll stay in the ruts? All you’ve got to do Is to get busy and shove. You act like you were pushing a five-ton truck. No. No! The other way. Are you trying to bust a spring? If you haven’t got any brains, can't you have a little beef?” He came back from i|ie bossing lob with a glance in the direction of Sally. What? She was crying? He could feel his soul squirm. She was crying, but it was so unobtrusive, so nearly tearless, that the Wreck knew he was not expected to observe it. “I’m sorry everything has gone busted,” he said. “Oh, nothing much Is busted," said Sally, quickly. "That's all right. "Oh.” He stole another glance. She was not crying, after all; at least, not now. Strange people, women. You never could tell how long they were going to stick to one thing. Still, if there was anything he could do for Sally Morgan, all she had to do was to say the word. * “Os course, we don't need to tell the sheriff it’s all off,” he said suddenly. "No?” "What's the use of giving him the satisfaction? We could just keep on—” He broke Ob’ in a cry of rage. The flivver was diving into the brush again and the posse seemed unable to stop it. He leaped to assist, slammed on the emergency brake, brought the cantankerous thing to a halt and fired a broadside of denunciation. But it was more amazing to see that they not only endured

Not for | the world did she want him to know i that he amused her. “They don't get anything right,” lie complained. “Still. I think they're trying," she said generously.^**“But they don’t understand." "Lots of people don’t understand things.” “Huh?” She meant something; he felt certain. Did she mean that there were some things that he did not understand? Well, if so, what were they? j "What don't they understand?” j demanded the Wreck. "All kinds.” “NdV you're Just talking nonsense —in circles.” "I suppose so,” said Sally. "Do you mean me?" he asked, j sharply. "Oh, don’t let's quarrel again.” "I'm not quarreling. I never quar ' rel. My nerves may get on edge, but I'm always pleasant. I'm always— ’’ They were doing something wrong with the flivver.

to the top of the last rise. When the Wreck returned to Sally he was mopping Ills forehead. "Excuse me," he said, “but they get me all worked up. Once we get to the main road, we’re all right. Plain sailing then. We'll be almost at the end of this foolishness.” "Yes,” agreed Sally. "I bet you'll be glda.” She bit her lip until It made her wince. He was probably the most impossible person in the world. "Get you home in no time after we hit the road,” he added. \ (Continued in Our Next Issue).
