Month Of April A Problem Child That's the thing abou April; it has tantrums, says the New York Tinic^;. It is by turns a backward child among the months and a mis- chievous youngster with disarm- ing wisdom and consideration. It will bring frost and cold rain and even snow flurries; and it will bring days that belong to late May, warm mornings, hot afternoons and balmy nights. It will get you out in the garden in your shirtsleeves in the morning and have you shiv- ering before a hearth fire he same evening. It will flatter you off guard, then kick you in the shins. A part of it is our own impa- tience to see Spring move in witli flowers in her hair. We're weary of waiting. But the greater part of it is simply April being April. We know what's coming, and we'll welcome it, but we still don't like the way that April brings it. April's a problem child. An Actual Truth Stranger Than FsJce A man in whom I have complete trust once looked me in the eyes and told me he'd seen a snake, wlien alarmed, open its mouth and allow its s;;: young to crawl down its throat out of siglit, and when dan- ger was past, permit them to reap- pear, Beryl Markham w. 'tes in Col- lier's. Now ... a strange thing about nature fakes is that they are almost always gone one bettffr by actual truths. The snake-swallow- ing sanctuary idea becomes a minor stunt when compared with certain connnon tropical fish, which look like little perch. If you want to see sheer magic, tap on the glass of an aquarium which holds a mother, father and 100 (count them) tiny young. The moment alter an alarm, there will be only two fish visible; every youngster being snugly hid- den within the mouth of a parent. When danger is over, the whole mob is gently spewed forth, roll- ing head over tail to form a dense, orderly cloud around and behind their parents. ISSUE 17â€"1944 QUICK RELIEF FOR COUGHS-COLDS BRONCHITIS ASTHMA WHOOPING COUCH CATARRHAL ASTHMA SIMPLE SORE THROAT DON'T DEUY- iUY A BOHLt TODAY! LOVE .YENO'! f«Sf V BLACK DAWN By VICTOR ROSSEAU CHAPTER XXVI Dave had just wa'-tiiiig enough to swing liis head aside. The blast of the powder burned his cheek black from chin io temple. He swung his revolver muzzle in a narrow arc and landed on Curran's face. Shrieking horribly_ witli anguish, Curran turned and ran. Curran's course of flight was tak- ing him toward the horses that the attacking party had left standing. And then of a sudden a shout of triumph hurst f r o ra Curran's throat, and at the same moment Dave saw the live liorscs, bunched together. He fired liis hist shot, and it went wild. Curran must have heard the click of the hammer o'l a spent cartridge as Dave inillcd trigger again, for he turned and roared curses at his pur^ucl•. "I'll see yuh again, yuh swine!" he bellowed. "I'll git yuh, Bruce!'' And blindly Curran grasped at the mane of the horse that stood nearest him, and tlirust foot into the stirrup. That was where fate intervened and stacked the cards against him. For that horse was Black Dawn. * * * With a. squeal of fury. Black Dawn whirled and seized the fore- man's leg in his strong teeth, crush- ing it, and dragging Curran shriek- ing from the saddle. He ilung him to the ground, and shrieks of man and horse blended together in a hideous pandemonium as Curran struggled helplessly to escape. Dave tried to whistle to Black Pawn, but the stars were circling JVerhead, and lie coUapseci, halt conscious, on the ground near the dead man. The stinging taste of whisky in his mouth revived him. Dave open- ed his eyes and saw that it was dawn. He was lying where he had fallen, but a blanket had been spread beneath him. He felt a stab of pain in his left arm, look- ed at it, and saw .that his shirt sleeve had been cut away, and that the wound had been bandaged. "Dave! Oh, Dave, are you all right?" It was Lois bending over him, her tears dropping upon his face. Beside her stood .Sheriff Coggswell. The horses and Curran's body were gone. "I'm all right," Dave mumbled. "Black Dawn? He's safe?" "He's safe, Dave." It was the sheriff who answered him. Dave was getting on his feet. "Curran â€" Black Dawn trampled him â€" " he began. "Yeah, he's dead." said Coggs- well. "Set down, if yuh won't lie down." He rolled a cigarette and handed it to Dave, sq^jatting be- side him. "Sims got them Mexi- cans rounded up and hogtied. I picked up Miss Lois when I was ridin' in. Everything's jake, boy, and yo're cleared. * * * "Lonergaii talked to a certain point last night, and then he shut up tight. So I went down to ex- amine I'erris' body in the gully. Ferris was still alive, and an.xious to make an ante-mortem state- ment. He just had time to come through with it before casliin' in. "That skeleton yul. found in the knowed it since yuh spoke about his leg liaviii' been broke. Row- land was kicked by a hawss and broke his leg. He always limped after that, on account of its havin' been badly set. "Ferris lured Rowland into the hills with a story of gold deposits, and murdered him. Then he cooked up that story about Rowland's bav- in' forged the check and skipped the. country, so as to git the whole rights lo the Cross-Bar in his own hands. "Then he got into difficulties. Either he went to Lonergan, or Lonergan found out. Lonergan had Ferris where he wanted him after that. He got that twenty thous- and, and lie got a mortgage on the Cross-Bar by means of a fictitious loan that Ferris never received. He bled him steady, till Ferris was des- p'rate. • ♦ • "Then he put Curran in. Curran was wanted for murder in Mis- souri, and Lonergan knew Curran would do just what he told him. So, when Ferris refused to quit and leave this part of the country, there was nothing to do but put hnn on the spot, Ferris bein' ready to face a life sentence if he could git back at Lonergan. Curran got Ferris to the cabin, purtendin' he'd lure Lon- ergan there and kill him, but he double-crossed him. That's what I got from Ferris before he died. "Went back to Lonergan with tjiem facts, and Ferris' cross under the signature I wrote out in the dark, at the bottortr of the gull}'. Lonergan broke down and told the rest, though he refused to sign a confession. He claimed Curran murdered Mr. Hooker, but it's a safe bet Lonergan sent him to do it. We can't prove that, but we got enough evidence to send Lonergan up for a stiff term." Coggswell paused in his story and rolled Dave another cigarette. "Miss I-ois is Blaiie Rowland's daughter," he said. "Rowland's wife had divorced him, and he'd come West, leavin' Miss Lois with her mother. He'd never spoke about his wife and daughter, but Lonergan found out when he went through his papers. Alter that, Lon- ergan's main idea was to keep Miss Lois from gittin' her share of the ranch. • • * "He got the Hookers to take her from the orphanage where she'd been put after her mother d'jd, and kept licr on the mesa, so as to have lier under his eye. Well, Hooker had lieen findin' out things, and got to shootin' off his mouth, so Lonergan sent Curran to the cabin to kill him and put the crime on yuli. "Way tilings stand now. Miss Lois is half-owner of the Cross- Bar, and if Ferris had any heirs, they got to pay up that twenty thousand that was stolen, which means in effect that Miss Lois is the sole owner. And now 1 told yuh everything, 1 â€" I'll see yuh later, Bruce." CHURCH PARADE AT WINDSOR CASTLE For the first time in World War II.

"I can't tell yuh how glad I am things haVe cleared up in this way. Yuh won't need to be ridin' through the mountains with me now. Why, yo're an heiress." "Yes, Dave," answered Lois wistfully. She kneeled beside him and laid her cheek against his. "Is that all that you have to tell me, Dave?" "I reckon I told yuh all, Lois. But things have changed now, and you â€" " "I shall never be any different, Dave. I never change. Dave, don't tell me you â€" you've stopped car- ing?" "Stopped carin'?
