The cushions from the Ford would continue to be their bed; at on the corner of the floor. and equipped with mattresses. bunkets. and pillows. they looked tempting enough tor a noon-day; nnp. not to speak ot nights after - labor in the fields. The suit cues were opened; Cal's mirror and shoving set hung from nails in the wall; the gun straddled over the door, and the cartridges sat on I little shell which Cat had built; even the spare tire with the blow out, hanging by the window, help ed to lend a furnished air to the place. A table and chairs would come in time; they were luxuries not necessities. Outside. Cal hm moved the grindstone so that it stood parallel with the granary. and not In reckless disregard of any de ttnite angle to it; had built little brackets on which he hoisted the binder knives that had been tound lying in the grass nearby: had moved four sections ot drag hor- rows trom the side around to the back and had stood them on a edge with some show ot symmetry, and had carried a log which leaned union the granary tor no particw lar purpose except in fulfillment of fate to the general log pile, where its tate could more conveniently be fulttlled.

The jingle of trace chains and the heavy stamping of work horses were their first reminder that the morning was gone. The farm-yard shook itself awake, discarded its air of sunny irtdolertee, and sudden- ly became a scene of hustling ac- tivity. Twelve great horses, ar- ranged in three teams of four. each harnessed abreast. sweeping. in from the fields, now crowded ag- gressively about the long wooden water trough in the centre at the "rd-tit an area so undefined in Jnckson Stake's (arm-yard can be sold to have a centre. Just where the yard began or ended no one or cared). A lanky young man with 1 salt apparently acquired in the supporting of his overalls moved a lever and presently from overhead came the rush ot air in the blades of the windmill and the slow “clanlt . . . cttutit" of the cotter-ting- rod as it operated the pump. "Grit. old Jim is checked up," said the young man with the salt to a head suddenly thrust through a space In the ahoulderlng mass of horetteah. The head was crowned with a straw hat which. either through age or mlsadven- ture, had lost the greater part ot Its brim; underneath the remnant a pair of deep eyes twinned slowly Kidneys ctMMM, Buck-Che?

The two others turned toward him and regarded him tor a mom- ent in silence. While they were thus engaged a third "ttre, a' youth of eighteen or thereebou! emerged trom the mass. All three regarded him. Gander was non-committal. "Oidn't know Dad was Murin' on hiriu' any more help," he remarked. "However, he's the doctor. What can you do?"

Inside, a long table, covered with oiiclolh that had once been white but through which black smudges ot wear were now showing at the creases and corners, stood in the middle of the floor.
