I see a heap of .whisky listed to-be, aguzzled .
an’, agot away with when I was a .voung-
stey.but I couldn’t never bear theplzen stuff!,
A fetch of alkerhol incase of bad butts
er sickness, er mebby a sup of brandv; was
aplentv ter me. There, ytfil.be easier now
■with them there wet things of cn yo’. - Now
I’ll jest slip this clean sheet under yo’;
fheany air good, at’washin' an’ ironin’•
’pears-to me I never got in .between sheets
that seemed ser sweet an' pure-lfloe as hern
do. Yes, Treany air a mighty good worker
an no mistake, but she never talks much. She
always hes been a sort of still person senee
We crossed the plains, when .she was born
an’ her .mother was lost. Yes,” he said,
softlj) "she was lost, an’ I was broke down,
too, an’ eveyy thing is changed seace; but
the Lord led His select to these here mount-
ings of His’en ter their, good; it was His
ways, an’ He will pervide. Npw, I’ll jest
put this ere blauket over j-o'; the bights in
Utah in June air mostly cool, but ye'll be
better fer it.’?
Thus he rambled on. falling into a fit of
coughing now and then, and soon Trean
came into the kitchen by the baick door and
began building a fire. A glance through
the door showed her the injured man lying
quietly with eyes closed, but breathing hard,
and with a soft bui anxious expression op
her face,' she went about her work. ‘Pres-
ently Dubette came bustling in, and with
him a slow-treading, ox-like young fellow
of good form and features, whose eyes lit
up a little when Trean stepped to the door
ahfl soberly admitted them.
“Orson Beam, he have become my pUpil.
Mr. Hartjnan,” sakl Dubette. "I have
bring him that he may see the injury and
help me, for he is very stroitg.”
The old man shook hands with them
bunch of flowers. The injured man’s eyes , Lord's anointed, er. es
tuyned gratefully tbtfard the-kitchen door
when-he looked at this. ' ‘ ’
‘•Your, daughter is "Very good.’’ he’-saiS,
with something like a dump rising into his
throaty ;‘
’“Y,es, fexv,are more so. I her an idee.
She ktfn fix a snack of vittles ’at a’-most
any body ken eat. I guess.” and he placed
the kneading-board carefully on a chain by
the couch and helped Elchard to- the food.
-When he had eaten what he wished, he
said: ' . ■
•’ITiank you. Mr, Hartman, Please thank
your daughter, too. for mtf Words! are .not
much to give in return for such kindness,’’
"They are plenty, they are plenty ! The.
one what does good gits his pay in adoin,' of ’
it; besides, in the.hereafter, if there’s some
still acomin’ to us, there’ll be plenty to pay
us with,” and the old. map went into' the
kitchen and ate his; breakfast with Trean.
That, eyening. as the sun through the
jagged mountain gaps in the we&t rolled
slowly out of the valley; drawing its back-
ward streaming vails of radian co-down, and

She glanced at an old clock on the mantle;
it was five o'clock.

Orson, before you go,” she said.
"No, Trean, I will go down home, I guess
I will come up in the evening again; he”
will get along I think now,” and their eyes
turned to the sleeper’s face. A pale film of

and made clear the delicate chiseling of the
nose, the refined outline of the forehead
