Says Railroad Engineer
"I am a railroad engineer; about 20
years ago my leg was seriously injured
in an accident out West Upon my re
fusing to allow the doctor to amputate
it I was told it would be impossible to
heal the wound I have tried all kinds J
of salves and had many doctors in the |
past 20 years, but to no avail. Finally j
I resolved to use PETERSON'S OINT- I
MENT on my leg. You cannot imagine j
my astonishment when I found it was J
doing what over 100 things failed to do. '
My leg is now completely cured."—Gus 1

wounds, but for Eczema, Salt Rheum,
Ulcers, Itching Skin and Blind, Bleed

GENTUT RUBBING ~
HELPS VARICOSE VEINS
Rubbing the swollen veins nightly for
about two minutes with a gentle up
ward stroke brings benefit to sufferers
and is mighty good advice, saya an
authority.
After the rubbing, which should
always be toward tne heart, because
the blood in the veins flows that way,
apply Emerald Oil (full strength) with
brush or hand.
Try this simple home treatment for a
few days and improvement will be no
ticed, then continue until veins are re
duced to normal. It Is very concen
trated and penetrating and can be ob
tained at any modern drug store. It Is
so powerful that it also reduces Goitre
and Wens. All druggists have Emerald
Oil In the original bottle and will be
glad to supply It—Advertisement.

CHAPTER XlX—Kemp and Gerry
become friends.
Gerry was feeling a strange elation
that he strove in vain to account for.
This was an American but beyond that
they had nothing In common. New
York and Texas are connected only by
fiction. Perhaps it was just curiosity.
Curiosity invaded him. What was a
Texas cowboy doing on the road past
Fazenda Flores with a mule-train of
orchids? As an opener he declared
himself. "My name's Gerry Lansing,"
he said. "I've settled down here."
"So?" said Kemp, as he drew from
his vest pockets the makings of a ciga
rette. 3erry had seen the yellow pa
pers and the little bags of flaked to
bacco. They struck convincingly the
note of the West. "Reckon you're f'm
the States," drawled Kemp as he ac
complished the cigarette.
"Yes," said Gerry and added, with
an idea to establishing a link, "like
you."
"Reckon you're f'm Noo Yawk," was
Kemp's next deliberate contribution
to the conversation.
With that, talk lagged. Gerry in
stinctively avoided the question direct
and Kemp vouchsafed nothing more.
Not till Gerry came upon him hitching
up his loads early next morning did
he speak again and then he said with
a glint in his eye that was almost a
smile, "I guess them's the first orchids
that ever traveled to ma'ket under a
diamond hitch."
Here was an opening but It came
too late. Gerry did not try to follow
It up. Once more In the saddle Kemp
seemed to acquire a sudden new ease
of body and mind. He hung by one
knee and a stirrup and leaned over
toward Gerry. "Stranger," he said,
"I'm much obliged to ye. It's a long
way f'm the Alamo to Noo Yawk, but
the hull country's under one fence."
He waved his hand and was gone af
ter his pack-train, lifting his mule with
his goose-necked spurs into a protest
ing canter. Two weeks after his pass
ing, as evening was settling on Fa
zenda Flores, the echo of a mule's
mincing steps on the bridge made Ger
ry look up from his work.
"Howdy," said Kemp and paused on
that to measure his welcome. He was
satisfied and urged his tired mule on
towards the bouse. Gerry walked be
side him and learned that the ship
ment of orchids had Just caught the
steamer at the coast. Kemp unsaddled
his mule and tossed the harness and
slicker upon the veranda. As Gerry
was closing the gap Into the pasture
Kemp came up and stood beside him
He cast a knowing eye over the fat
stock. "You done a good Job for Lie
ber," he remarked.
Gerry nodded a little sadly. "Yes,"
he said, "the contract's filled. Lieber's
sending for the stock day after tomor
row."
As they sat on the veranda that
night smoking endless cigarettes,
Kemp turned to his host "D'ye mind
if I stay over a day with you? Truth
Is, 1 want to he'p drive that stock up
to Lieber's. I want to he'p whistle a
bunch o* steers along once more and
smell the dust an' the lea kin' udders,
an' I shouldn't wonder if I let out a
yell or so, corralin" 'em at the other
end."
Gerry nodded
"Why did you leave it?" he ventured
and then regretted and murmured,
"Never mind."
But Kemp was not offended. "Naw,"
he said, "I hain't killed my man—not
lately—nor anything like that. I left
It," he went on reminiscently. "because
T couldn't h«i'p It. 1 wot to dreamiii
nights of pu'ple cities."
"Purple what?" exclaimed Gerry.
Kemp took a cigarette from hl>
mouth and almost smiled. "Never did
hear of The Pu'ple City, I reckon?"
Gerry shook his bead. Kemp drew
a well-worn wallet from the capacious
inner pocket of his vest and took out
a ragged clipping. One could read In
the glaring moonlight and Gerry
glanced through the printed lines.
Then he read them through again.
THE PURPLE CITT.
As I sat munching mangoes.
On the purple city's walls,
I heard the catfish calling,
To the crawfish In the crawls.
I saw the paper sunbeams.
Sprouting from the painted sun;
I saw the sun was sullen,
For the day had but begun.
Of dusty desert sky-road.
Ten thousand miles and more.
Stretched out before the morning,
And the sun sat in the door.
He sweated seas of sunshine,
As he started up the sky,
And he drowned the purple city.
In a tear-drop from his eye.
No more shall purple pansies
Look up at purp'.e pinks,
Nor purple roses rival,
The cheeks of purple minx.
Alas! for purple cKy,
And its purpie-peopled halls!
Alas! for me and mangoes,
On the purple city's walls!
Gerry looked upon his gnest with
new wonder us he handed back the
clipping. Kemp put it away carefully,
rolled a fresh cigarette, and blew a
thick puff of smoke out into the moon
light. "Can't say Ifs po'try and I
can't say it ain't All I know Is it
roped me. I know that writer feller
never munched no mangoes, 'cause
mangoes don't munch. I know he nev
er sat on no wall an' heerd catfish call-
In' cause catfish don't call. But he
seen it all, stranger, jest the way he
writ it down an' I b'en dreamin' pu'ple
cities ever senee I read his screed."
"Did you start right out to look for
them?" asked Gerry gravely.
"Naw," said Kemp, "1 didn't have
uothin' to go on. But one day a drum
mer feller thet I was stagln' across
the White mountains give me a plant
magazine, and It had an article on
commercial orchids with pictures in
colors. They was mostly kinder
pu'pllsh an* 1 reckon It was that what
got me started. It was the foreman
polntln' out my mount to me an' I
didn't lose no time. I drapped my rope
on him an' I've been ridin' him ever
sence."
"Found any purple cities V
"Not rightly. I seen 'em—more'n
once. But 1 guess pu'ple cities is al
ways yon side the mountain. You
can't jest ride up an' put your brand
on 'em. They're born mavericks and
they die mavericks. An' 1 say, good
luck to 'em." Kemp rose, tossed away
his cigarette end and stood leaning
with crooked elbow and knee against
a veranda pillar. His keen aquiline
features and deep-set eyes were lit up
by the moonlight and seemed scarcely
to belong to his great, loose-Jointed
frame. He was loose-Jointed but like
a flail—strong and tough. "There's
one thing about the pu'ple cities," he
added, "the daylight always beats you
to 'em Jest like In the po'm." He
aimed and went off to bed.
Gerry sat on in the moonlight seized
by a strange sadness—the sadness the
spirit feels under the troubled hover
ing of the unattainable and the mi
rage. Life had queer turns. Why
should a cowboy start out to look for
purple cities? It was grotesque on the
face of it but, beneath the face of It,
it was not grotesque.
Margarita stole out to seat herself
beside him. She slipped her hand into
his. She was worried. She was al
ways worried when Gerry's thoughts
were far away. "The Man," she said,
for thus she had christened her baby
boy from the dny of his birth, "the
Man sleeps. He cried for thee and
thon didst not come. So he slept, for
be is a man."
Gerry's thoughts came back to his
little kingdom. He sighed and then
he smiled a smile of content. "It Is
late then, my flower?" He put his
arm around her. "Let us go to bed,
for tomorrow there Is work."
"Tomorrow there is always work,"
said Margarita. "I am not afraid of
work, Geree. The end of work never
comes. It is the things that end that
make me afraid." She, too, bad felt
the fluttering wings of the unattain
able. Unknowingly she stood beneath
the shadow of the stranger's purple
city's walls.
The next day Kemp tried honestly
to help Gerry with the tilling of the
soil but the effo'rt was still-born. Kemp
had almost forgotten how to walk and
his high-heeled boots fell foul of every
hummock. 'He wandered off to the
house with solemn face. When Gerry
came in to the midday meal, be found
him with a. saddle propped on the
arm of a bench giving the delighted
swaddled heir to Faaenda Flores his
first lesson in equitation.
That night they sat again on the
veranda steps but Kemp was not talk
ative. He whittled a stick until It dis
appeared In a final curly shaving and
then immediately started on a fresh
one.
"Known Lleber long?" asked Gerry
at last.
"Goln' on two —replied Kemo.
