l!ut his 1'iisiucss didn't rtow fast
enough to suit his hijjh aspirations and
he was continually lcokin out for
some new scheme for inakinif money.
One night, after baby avos a.-leep and
we sat eozily before the fire, he told mo
of some immense salt meadow still
further west which the government
was dividing into large tracts and giv
ing them to settlers. "Now." he said,
with a Warning fatv. "if we should 1
cate on one of these tracts before they
are taken ami live there for a few
vears, t-o could then le the owners of
property that will certainly become
very valuable in time, as the country
grows in its neigh borhooL Then we
can Srl 1 out and go back to New York
with a f 'ft u ue."
If 1 hud discouraged the idea then I
know he would have dropped it.
I!"it I was even more suufume of the
resti'ts than he. and fell ia with the
scheme at once, only advising that we
should hold on to our present I usi
ness. too. and endeavor to run both,
w hich he gladly agreed to.
Iu a month's time he had his shanty
erected ou our salt marsh tract, and
thitner we went with the nec-:ss:iry
household effects in a prairie wagon,
baby and all.
The weather wa ivjrm and lvoau
tiftil w hen onr hojieful 1 ; t 1 1 family of
s.un?ter- arrived un our dominion,
which was to le our fortune, and the
roug'.i and rather frail ! 'f "::,in looked
like a palace to iny ambitious and r
inrtntie i yes.
"1 w as in t he center of our big tract,
and the -aline deposit, covering the
marsh for miles and miles, gl'st -n si
and sparkled in the bright sut;Irrit
like the first light fall of suo.v used to
w lion on the green meadows alx.ii- tne
oil homestead in our native cat-torn
state.
Not another domicile but our own
could wo see, nor a hill, nor oven a bit
of wooil. All was a w ide, dreary, dead
l.-vel white most ly with salty scum arid
black and bare in svot.s with what
looked like dried mud. such as the tvot
tom of a p'ii:d discloses w hen the w titer
is draw n i.li.
Not irn nor a sound of life save
the dismal croaking of the lonely frogs
was there to our know lodge for iiiauy
miles u round.
We wen: iu a desert uninhabitable
apparently for man or 1 east, sure to
starve if our supplies were not, often
renewed: with no protection from tho
de;:dlv tornadoes in summer and the
forty -derrrce-bolMW-zern bliz7rds in
the winter save our little mud-plastered
log f-hiiiity.
What u place for a woman and a
baby:
l!ut. the prospective fortune we would
have to travel home with, and the
glory of doing something heroic for
husband aud bub,", prac-vl me up, and
with a merry shout I took ivi-sc:. .ion
as our new home in the saline deport
and commeueed housekeeping iu a vcry
primitivo .style.
I was cheerful and made no end of
fun over everything, for I know if I
showed the white leather then I'hilip
would quickly have given up the tract
to take me back to civilization.
Of coarse wc never exjioct-ed to be
come permanent residents of the place
cor evin stay there the year through,
only be there oft and on for awhi:o.
ju .t long enough to secure the title and
;'ll out when the boom catue for salt.
It may have Ivcen sharp practice on
our part against the government, but I
wasn't then enough of a politician to
know it and Philip never told inc.

alone in such a dosolnt-.; and uninviting

In fact I insisted that Philip would
himself attend to the other business,
and not leave it in charge of a partner
who juight lx' neglectful or disho:i."-t.

we started on our grund way .'f mak

It was in the early autumn when
Phillip left me for the last thin- ore

to go and not return till spring follow

While he was absent the rainy sea

threatening to destroy or float away

Thi' w ind was tort ilic. toi. and the
lightuing and thunder wore fearful.

bring bright skies again. j

the ground a foot or so, and, as yet,
the lloor was high and dry.
After giving baby his supper and lay

I trot into bed without undressing '

The lamp, shedding a dim light on

At last I was losing and losing m r-

A multitude of strange soratehing i
