In the lead rode Slim Loyalo and Sioncy Shcard. Following them was a bucklioard, with lioy O'Prien driving. Sittiny: besidc Itoy, v.ith his wounded Icr cushioned and propped up by wads of blankct^jr.^as. Dakota Blue. '•1 suppSje prm'll be after see- in' the ^o\t'rnfa- right away?" sug- gested Koy. Dakota nodded and grinned. ''He's as fevciish as a liound pup after its first rabbit. Don't know- as I blame him, though. The kid has been catin' his heart out all along about Mona Hall. He's plumb loco about her. "An' though he's never hinted of it to me. 1 know he's had some daiig-fool idee about honor that's kept him from springin' the ques- tion to her. Ileckon he's sorta felt that with that prison record on his haid, he had no right to ask her to marry him." Roy snorted. ".\s if that'd be after making one bit of difference to Miss Mona. She's knowed that Slim is innocent, same as the rest of us. Shore, an' she's a fine girl. She'd stick to the man she loved regardless. But yuh have to hon- or the boy for his pride, just the same." At the home ranch Slim wasted no time. He shaved and cleaned up. donning his only suit of store clothes. The Herd Passei By Out at the north end of Jericho \'allcy, in company with Sam Tis- (lalc and Abo Fornacnon, Mona Hall sat her saddle and watched the leaders of long tides of cat- tle flow out acros.s her range, head- ed north towards those promised lands in the Kicapoo range. As 60on as Tisdale had made the Bgi'eement as to price with Slim Loyale he had sent word to his trail mates to start the herd mov- ing. And the herd was now on its way to the new proniised land. Mona turned to Tisdale. "I feel like a robber, Mr. Tisdale, taking a quarter a head for the mere passing of those cattle. I (ion't sec where they can possibly do that much damage." Tisdale grinned. "Don't Jet that worry yuh. Miss Hall. Me an' the rest of the gang are glad to get by with that i)rice. V/e're quite wiUin' to pay it. -And here comes somebody that looks as if was in a danged hurry." Mona whirled and followed Tis- dale's pointing artn. Sure enough a rider was loi)ing steadily towards liiem and Mona recognized Slim. A puncher had ridden fiom town to tell her of the thwarted bank holdup and the part Slim and h;.'! boys had played. But she had heard nolliing of Arthur's confes- sion, and, v.hile she had expected that Slim wculd ride to her when the fight was over, yet she could not help the queer feeling that came over her now at the sight of him. .Slim cantered up, giving a cheery greeting. He shook hands with Tisdale and Abe, then turn- ed to Mona. "I got somethin' to explain to yuh, Mona," he drawl- ed. "How about a little ride? These boys can watch the cattle." My Guiding Star Mona nodded. "I think so, too. You'll excuse us?" "Go along, young 'uns." laugh- ed Tisdale, who guessed how things stood between these two. Slim rode for two miles before he reined in. Then he jumped to Mona, his eyes glowing. "I've got -â- Arthur's signed and witnessed confession that I was framed," he .stated. "And that makes it fair that I should say what I'm goin' to say, Mona." He reached in one pocket and brought out a tiny, plush bubble of a case. "Back in Jarillo there were times when I thought I'd go crazy. -At those times there was just one thing that kept my feet on the Of INTEREST to WOMEN READERS FOR THF.

Lookin' back I can see where yuh've been my guidin' star all my life. "Unconsciously 1 built my mode of livin' around yuh.

"I â€" I've gotten so used to that standard of reward now, 1 eain't face the rest of life without it. Before I got this confession, I had no right to ask yuh. Now I can. I've loved yuh forever, it seems like, Mona. Will yuh mar- niy me?" A Name Cleared She looked at him, her lips I)arted, her eyes glistening. "If there was anything that would keep me from saying yes. Slim I.oyale, it is because you were so silly in feeling that you could not ask me until your name had been cleared. .A woman who would hesitate over such a foolish thing, would not be worth thinking about. Your name has always l)een clear with me, Slim. I'll marry you tomorrow, if you wish. I've always loved you. Slim." There was a rather dizzy inter- lude, during which a diamond soli- tair-. that Slim had purchased-in town that morning was unearthed from the plush case and placed on the proper finger. "There's just one aigumcnt I've got to settle," said Slim. "Why wouldn't yuh take that money from me to pay Arthur with, honey?" "Because 1 didn't want to be in debt to the man I was going to marry," replied Jlona daringly. Slim chuckled. "Plumb shore of me all the time, wasn't yuh?" Mona dimpled. "I had hopes." Slim reached for her again. THK E.XD A^e;*:^ Week!

The jacket is marked by the easy draping of the top â€" by that Wf mean that, though perfection of tailoring is reciuircd, the fabric is handled without too much severity of line â€"and the snug fit about the hips. While the waistline is not defin- itely marked, one is made aware of it by the slightest oi indenta- tions and tlie placing of the but- ton at the normal waist line. A large percentage of the jackets are collarless and linished only with revers, hut even these are not al- ways in th order of the day. Skirts are prone to swing, though a goodly number are hold to straight lines â€" especially those designed for the older woman. In the lat- ter case they may have kick pleats falling within the tubular confines. Skirts Prone To Swing To ring a change on the suit that accompanies the sports top- coal there are frocks lifted out of the connnonplace beiause of their bright scarfs and their trimmings. Iland-stitched seems to be a pel of the season wheliier it be on dress, jacket or hat. Jacket Dress Indispensable Looking toward spring ward- robes, be sure to include one of the new jacket dresses with an ex- tended waistline that makes hips and midriff seem iiuhes narrow- er. The color combinations are pure inspiration â€" such delicious trios as crocus blue, hyacinth an<l cherry- wliite, lavender ar.d gera- nium. Select a dress of soft, un- rrtishable crepe, very simply cut with a circular skirt that flares gently below the slim hips. The short-sleeved, collarless jacket should bp full, bloused snugly into a wide, shirred belt, ftlouse, drMS and belt are of different colors.

Slang expression as that may be, it is one that we homemakers would do well to think over, for the onion family is a large and varied one. There arc those that are so mild that they scarcely rise above a whisper and some that are so strong that they seem to take the top right off your head. For Eating Raw Garlic, chives, leeks, and shal- lots are all members of the same general seasoning family, but they should not be used interchangeab- ly. For this reason, it is well to know w^hat purpose you wish to satisfy when you make your selec- tion. For eating raw, we general- ly choose the early Spring onions or scallions, the mild, sweet Ber- muda onion, or the equally mild, sweet Spanish onion. For season- ing, we need something stronger and turn to the white onion, which is quite mild, the yellow skinned onion, which is medium strong, or the red skin which is strong in- deed.

That is a questiou that is repeatedly being put to me. The truth is that supeilluous hair CAN be eradicated, but you must be prepared to go to a good deal of trouble. What causes supeiflous hair? It is believed to be a glandular for- mation. Hot weather sumetimos ac- centuates a growth that already ex- ists, or might bring out a light dowu ou skin not usually subject to it. but in tlie latter ease, ecltl weather drives it away again. Creams do not make hairs grow, despite widespiead belief that ihey do. There arc two methods of elimin- ating the' blemish. lOlectrolysis is one. in which an electric needle i» used to remove each hair separate- ly at the root. It calls for extreme- ly competent handling, and becausa so often an operator is not fully capable, unsightly scars are t'.ie re- sult. The other method is self-treat- ment with a special wax that has been very popuHr in I'rauce for some years. It is a slow treutmeut, but has the advantage of privacy, as it cau be done in the hoir.e. Ti:a wax has an atrophying effect cu the roots atid gradually wears theia down, tlie period ua'turally depend- ing much on the individual case. My leaflet ou "Superfluous Hair'* gives additional iutormation on this blemish.
