I For awhile, as he ate Courtney's 'oiled quail, King did not answer.

it the merry smile had left his eyes id he seemed for once to be letting s mind dwell on conditions as they mcerned himself. "How many men have you at the rt?" he asked at las. "Two hundred. Why?" f'Al! natives?" . ;"To a man." !"L!ke 'em?" "What's the use of talking?" answeri Courtney. "You know what it eans when men of an alien race and up to you and grin when they iltite. They're my own." iKing nodded. "Die with you, eh?" !"To the last man," said Courtney

lietly with that conviction that can ply be arrived at in one way, and

lat not the easiest. "I'd die alone," said King. "It'll be nely In the 'Hills.' Got any more

bail?"

And that was all he ever did say

I "May she show good hunting!" anvered King, draining his glass; and 1 was his first for that day. "If it eren't for that note of hers that me down the Pass, and for one or vo other things, I'd almost believe it a myth one of those suppositious ?ople who are supposed to express me ideal or other. Not an halluciition, you understand nor exactly l embodied spirit, either. Perhaps te spirit of a problem. Let y be the hyber district, z the tribes, and x ie spirit of the rumpus. Find x. et me?" "Not exactly. Got quinine in your t. by the way?" "Plenty, thanks." "What shall you do first after you t up the Pass?" Call on your brothat All Masjld? He's likely to know lot by the time you get there." "Not sure," said King. "May and ay not. I'd like to see him. Have'nt ;en the old chap in a donkey's age. ow is he?" "Well two days ago," said Courtney. .Vhat's your general plan?" "Hunt!" said King "Hunt for x id report. Hunt for the spirit of the m!nr ruction and try to scrag it!

"What's ie Rangar going to do with, that are of his? Suppose he'll leave her All Masjid? He'll have to leave r somewhere on the way. She will t stolen. Gad! That's the brightest otion yet! I'll make a point of buyg her from the first horse-thief who mes traipsing down the Pass!"

said

"Here's wishing you luck!

King. "It's time to go, sir." He rose, and Courtney walked with him to where his party waited in the dark, chilled by the cold wind whistling down the Khyber. Rewa Gunga sat, mounted, at their bead, and close to him his personal servant rode another horse. Behind them were the mules, and then in a cluster, each with a load of some sort on his head, were the thirty prisoners, and Ismail took charge of them officiously. Darya Khan, the man. who had brought the letter down the Pass, kept close to Ismail. "Are you armed?" King asked, as soon as he could see the whites of the Rangar's eyes through the gloom. "You jolly well bet I am!" the Rangar answered. To be continued

As "Engine Wipers

FARGO, N. D., June 11. Three girls are numbered among a crew of engine wipers in the Northern Pacific railroad roundhouse at Mandan, N. D.

. Don't Neglect the Summer Cold We "catch cold" in warm weather because colds are germ diseases and our vitality is loo low to. resist them. To kill those cold ?:erms,"the antiseptic pine-tar of Dr. Bell's Picj-Tar Honey is famously effective, besides helping to relieve Hie tight chest and invigorate the tissues. The honey and expectorant ingredients heal the throat and soothe the cough. Always have a bottle of Dr. Bell's Pine-Tar-Honey in your home, 25c, at your druggist. Adv.

EPILEPTIC FITS FOR 9 YEARS

Indianapolis Woman Nearly Loses Mind Now Restored to Health.

The story of this wonderful recovery is better told in the letter from Miss Kate Schoettle, S. Meridian St., Indianapolis

"I have had what is sup posed to be an incurable case of Epileptic fits of nine years' standing. They were so severe that I nearly lost my mind entirely. I became a great burden to my folks, as I could not be

left alone. Five years ago last August the blessing of health came to our house in the form or Hull's Superlative Compound. I began to improve from the start and my general health commenced to build up and the following April I had the last spell. Before this I tried almost everything that we would hear of, but without any good results. By the use of the Superlative my mind was restored and also my general health. It has been five years since I had the last attack, and my health has been almost perfect all the time. I feel thankful to the Lord for a remedy that is such a great blessing to suffering humenity." What Hull's Superlative has done for Miss Schoettle, bringing health and happiness to her and her family, it will do for others afflicted with this horrible malady. All druggists sell Hull's Superlative for $1.00 a bottle, and the A. J. Hull Medicine Co., of Findlay. O., will glad

The only means we had was to trudge the streets seeking "To Let" signs a very discouraging and provoking method indeed fine business for the chiropodist who doctored our sore feet after a day at it but heart-breaking and souring to the home-seeker.
