“Oh, this is grand!” exclaimed George
Casey, as he paused for a few moments to
enjoy the embracing air and scenery. All
about him the mountains lay in tumbled
heaps, farther away the foothills sloped
gracefully downward, and still farther
down in the valley and out over the mining
camp he could see the old trail that
stretched away to the westward. He was
new to these scenes, having recently come
to Wyoming from his home in Boston, and
he was drinking in the atmosphere of the
new life to the fullest.
“*Y-a:8.’" drawled the girl ag sheovertook
her compauicn; “but I'm a thinkin’ as how
we bettor start fer home. It's a-gettin’
purty late, an’ we're some twelve miles
from town. We can't much more than git
there by dark.”
“Two-bits,”” said George, tauntingly, ‘1
believe you're a coward. Here you were
born and raised in this country, and you're
scared about being out in the hills after
dark. Now, I'm a tenderfoot, and yet
would'nt be afraid to wander all over these
kills from now until morning.”
George Casey was indeed a ‘‘tenderfoot,”
but this was not the worst of his failings.
Raised in ae wealthy family, he had beep
given everything he wished, and had ruled
his father's house to suit himself. That
he was the most important portion of the
family, he did not for a moment doubt,
and it was his greatest desire that others
should share that opinion with regard to
him. When he found that he was to spend
the summer in Wyoming looking after some
mining interests, he determined that of all
other things he would show the people
there that here was one tenderfoot that was
not so tender after all. The few friends
whom he had made on first arriving at
Cold Springs, had soon tired of his lordly
ways and the only one who cared to accom-
pany him on his various journeys over the
hills was Two-bits, who followed him
around like a faithful dog. ’
Nobody could tell where Two-bits got her
name. She was a rough, uncouth girl of
fourteen years, born in the wilds and true
to her birthplace. The high cheek bones
and swarthy features told of Indian
blood—a fact of which she was prowd.
No two characters could possibly have
been more opposite than those of George
Casey aml _Two-bits. She had alvays been
accustomed to associating with roughly-
dressed, brown-featwred, bow-begged cow-
boys, who treated her Eke one of their own
kind, amd sometimes enjoped teasing her
for the amusement of the gong. An admir-
ation had been awakemed m her for thiss
smooth-shaven, well dressed, polite young
gentleman who had come from the Mand
of which she had heard such wonderful
stories. She had dreamed of such individ-
uals but had never seen one before. He
appreciated the fact that she admired him,
and since no one else in that immediate
vicinity seemed to share the feeling, he
gladly allowed her the monopoly of it. :
So ‘the two had formed a sort of soclail
system all thelr own, wlth just two classes
--master and vassal.
“N-a-w,” she drawled, “I ain't no.coward,
neither. But I tel you, we can’t go back
the way we come, fer it's too long round.
We got to go straight back toward the
Springs, an’ it’s a good four hours’ walk.
Mebbe yer don’t know thet them there hills
jest above the camp has got fire all under
em. They is great big cracks thar, thet is
so warm yer can hardly bear yer hand in
em. Mebbe yer wouldn't like ter fall down
one of 'em inter the fire.”
“Ho, ho, ho!” laughed the tenderfoot;
such a ghost story. Now Miss,” he added,
“do you see that big pile of rocks yonder?
‘Well, that’s the highest place there 18
around here, and I’m going to go there.’’
‘‘Huh!” muttered Two-bits. “Yer kent
neither. ‘ A while back yer thought this
was the highest—her yer are, an’thet’s the
highest. It'll be the same way when yer
git thar; the highest will be just beyond. 1
tell yer, it’s time to go home.”
‘Go home, then, if you want to, and are
afraid. I'm going on. It isn't more than a’
mile farther.”
“It’s all of five miles!" she declared; but
the master started along, and the faithful
slave followed obediently. If he were
going, there was nothing for it but that
she must accompany him. They trudged
along in silence for haif an hour, and still
the peak seemed as.far away as ever.
“Coufoind it!’ said George, at last, ‘if
_we¢ had not stopped so long to talk about it,
~ we could have been there before this. I
suppose it’s too late to go any farther.”
Had Two-bits been more cultured ana
learned, it is likely she would have said,

though I could feel the heat right now,
There! Look yonder!”
They were now on an eminence command-
ing a good view of the lower hills, and as
they looked down into the darkness they
could see distinetly long lines of glowing
red, streaking the earth like the trails of
flery serpents. The redness pulsated like
a thing of life, and as it did so the very.
ground about seemed to heave up and down.
Then suddenly al! was darkness again.
“Yer see,” she continued, “I may be a
coward, an’ all thet. Mebbe so. It may a
bin all a ghost story, too. But there it is,
an’ we got ter cross thet place.
The brave young man was getting really
scared. He had never before been out in
the mountains in the night time, and the
awful stillness, broken now and then by
unpleasant sounds peculiar to the mountain
country, awed and frightened him. His
teeth were fairly chattering.

it was so bad." 4 bo lee
Yer might a had a purtygood idea,’ she
enswered; “but it ain't a-goin’ to do no
good ter git scared now. Come along
faster.’
By this time they were nearing the
dreaded place. Suddenly, as. she reached
forward her foot to take a step, she realized
instinctively that it was not Rading a solid,
footing as soon as it should. A sudden and
uncommon warmth came upward, and In
another instant the faint glow was seen,
showing her a chasm, with the further
brink some three feet away. Leapingacross
she called to her companion, ‘Mind yer
eye!” They had changed places—she was
now the master and he the slave.
“What Is it?" he asked, as he neared the
place. Just then he took the fatal step,
and felt himself falling. But the girl was
quick. Suddenly reachiig out her arm, she
grasped him by the hand and fairly drag-
ged him across the chasm. , y
“Well, I never!”’ he exclaimed in fright.
‘That's something awful, don't you know.
I say are there many more like that?’
“Come on, an’ quit yer talkin’,” waspthe
pre-emptory order.
‘But I say, 1wo-bits, it isn’t safe, is It?"
he called after her.
“I ain't afeard,” she answered; “If you
are, why stay where you are, or go back
an’ find the highest peak.’’
“Blast the little imp,” he muttered. “I
wonder if she's going to go away and
leaye me out here. all alone. Perhaps it
would serve me right, for I suppose it's all
my own fault. But, really, I had no idea
there was any truth in what she said.”
Hello, Two-bits! Don't run away and
leave me all alone!” And there came into
his throat something®very like a sob.
. “Look out there!” he heard her call; and
in the darkness he saw her some five feet

"1 can’t stay here all night.” he asked,
Mebbe yer could jump acress. I did—
but I'm only a coward.” She was becoming
sarcastic, but not without purpose. The
child was beginning to see that the young
man would need every incentive she could
offer to get him to put forth his best ef-
forts. She had no doubt of her own ability
to clear all theschasms, but she was quite
sure that her companion was not accus-
tomed to such tricks. Now, he stood like
a scared child on the opposite side of the
ditch. If the situation had not been so
serious, 1t would have been comical.
“Well, yer comin’?’ she, asked, im-
patiently.
He stepped back for a run, but when he
came to the edge again he stopped short
and looked ruefully at the red glow beneath
him. He held out his hand and drew it
back suddenly, as he,felt the intense heat.
hen what little courage he possessed for-
Sook him, and he began to whimper.
“I just can’t make It, Two-bits. Whatever
shall I do?” .
“W-a-11,” drawled the matter-of-fact girl,
“1 s’pose I could go ahead an’ git some of
the fellers from town ter come out an’ help
yer across. They'll, make no end of fun of
yer, though.”
“Blast the fun!” he cried. “Hurry up
and get me out of this, most anyway.”
“All right. Stay where you are, and I'll
be back after a while; and she hounded
away like a deer, leaving George Casey
sitting there in the night alone.
Minutes dragged like hours, and the dark-
ness seemed to grow thicker every moment,
except when it was penetrated by that un-

“Hello!” called a volce, “Where are yer,

and it was sweet music in his ear.
“Right this way, Two-bits,’’ he answered.

resting securely on either side, she ordered,
*‘Now, git spry, and don't waste no time.

As they came to the last crevice where
the board was necessary, George paused.
“W-a-ll,” drawled 'Two-bits, as she
waited, with arms akimbo, ‘this is the last
one. Yer goin’ to give up now? If yer do,
I'll leave yer fer good, dead sure.”
“Pwo-bits,” said George, and there was
considerable pathos in his voice; “Two-
bits,” he repeated, “will you forgive me for
calling you a coward? You are the bravest
girl I ever knew, and you've been real kind
0 me to-night. Will you forgive me?'?
“Aw, come along with yer,” said the girl,
greatly embarrassed. “It's my ‘pinion®

They neared the town, walking side by

and from their appearance no one would
have known that anything out of the
ordinary had occurred. As Sie left her at
her own doer he pressed her hand tightly,
and said: 3 - .
““You are a brave girl—a regular little
heroine.”
Next day she foundea pony tied to the
post in front of her mother’s house, and on
the beautiful saddle which it bore, was
pinned a note which read:
“This is Nickel, a present to Two-bits,
the brave little girl who was goed to a

Exiled Queen Ranavalo.
Among the members of the ruling
families of the orld, most of wikom
have known many sorrows, there are
few figures so pathetic as that of
Ranavalo, the ex-Queen of Madagas-
car, who is now on a visit to Paris,
and who since 1897 has been a queen
without a varone, living in Algiersson
the charity somewhat grudgingly
vouchsafed her by the French Govern-
ment.
Ranavalo is now forty-four, and, al«
though here complexion inclines to a
dusky shade, she is by no means un-
attractive. She possesses a distinctly
good figure, dresses with much taste,
and wears her clothes with distinction.
She ruled over Madagascar for four-
teen years, and, like the two queens
who preceded her, became the wife of
the Prime Minister. When she began
her reign the country was at war with
France.

The Newest Wearing Apparel.
The Princess gown occupies the
centre of fashion's stage for spring
and summer, and will doubtless “go
to mill amd to meeting” during the
coming months. It appears in all
sorts of gowns from the exquisite
creations for evening to the walking
skirt and its accompanying bolero,
but there are those who cannot and
will not wear this style of garment,
and for these there are very pretty
skirts, cut circular, and flaring widely
about the lower edge. These skirts
are constructed from all sorts of mas
terials, even to the thinnest of sume
mer fabrics, and if properly made they
will not necessarily give much trouble
by sagging. However, for the skirt
of washing stuff, the gored models are
much more satisfactory and patterns
for these ean be obtained with the
modish flare about the bottom.
The vogue of the cireular skirt has
led to the fashion for flat skirt trim
mings. These sometimes take the
form of stitched bands of the material
or silk, while braids of one or several
kinds are often interlaced in design
about the bottom. Another mode of
skirt trimming much used is con-
secutive rows of shaped flounces, one
over-lapping the other and oftenending
at each side of the front panel. One
might almost say that the front panel
in unbroken length from waisthand ta
hem prevails in the majority of gowns.
When bands of the same fabric as
the skirt are put on as trimming they
are usually piped with a contrasting
color; the tunic and flounce being often
suggested by the manner in which
these are applied.
As for coats, the bolero is in high
feather this year, and figures in all
varieties of wear from the ornamental
to the useful. As an ornament it ap-
pears in the negligee of the morning
as well as upon the evening toilette.
The little lace and embroidered boleros
are to be much worn with soft silk
and summer gowns and will prove
very fetching adjuncts to the toilette.
Every woman and girl will do well
to provide herself with several lin-
gerie waists for nice wear. These
little blouses are very important in
the wardrobe, no matter how meagre
or sumptuous it be. They can be had
in a great variety of styles and in all
of the sheer summer fabrics. Those
embroidered, or inset with lace, are
very dainty and considered quite suit-
able for any occasion where one needs
to look well. On cool days they can
be worn over a slip of pink, blue or
lavendar and be very pretty «nd be-
coming. Moony of these waists are
made with ? ow sleeves but they can
be had with he long sleeve—and some
of the newest imported blouses are
made with sleeves which end in a
long point over the hand.
In materials, no one will go astray
in purchasing voile and linen for her
spring and summer gowns. There are
linens of all kinds from the sheer
handkerchief qualities to the fine un-
bleached linens. Then there are soft
cashmeres, raw silks, mobairs and
eoliennes as well as the immortal
serge. White is promised much vogue
for summer, and mixed with black it
is very smart for the new suits,
These suitings are mostly in small
checks, or stripes.
