tracted¬

scrutiny pf a bowlder heap onthe otlier side of the glen Ihey aredown in the grrtss lrkc cats watching aflcclTof pigeolts

The ihtiles Iind mended their pace incrossing alstreak of barren gravel andwen beginning to browse the busheson the bilieT side when one of themraised lierhead stood motionless for anionTentaud then Trotted ahead withpricked ears but presently stoppedagain craning her neck like an excitedpointer in sight of game

Shes seen the mare chuckled theSergeant now watch them wake upin a minute There theyre on theway

The bush browsers had turned to theright and were stumbling forwardthrough a chao3 of scattered rocks tojoin -t- heir -- leader In les3 than aminute the entire troop stood on thealert with switching tails a pictuie ofexcitement and giad surprise

We advanced to a ledge of cliffswith- - jrrassv interspaces that affordedglimpses of the glen for half a mileahead and a fair view of a little covewhere hrnv Juno had tethered ourwhite mare

The mules bad resumed their ad ¬

vance browsing and staring by turnsand one had joined the mare who was

grazing with perfect unconcern andonly oiice raised her head with an im ¬

patient jerkr ihen the bobtailed v torwas sniffing abont her face

Thereare 11 of them all rightreported the boy on lu3 return andone is as safe as if yoa had her bornealready shes dragging a long ropetbat keeps catching ail the time Twoof theolher3 are just noosed but theirstraps dont drag

2Cbw look here said LieutBalinez we want you to try and ropeevery one of them and just make themdrag a stick or something that willkeep them from running too fast ifthey should take a notion to start oil

You bad better let Pancho trygentlemen said the old squatter Ivetended mules and caught mules enoughto mount a regiment and I noticed thata few inches of size in a human crittermakes a great difference when youdont want to scare stock There arehorses and -- mules that will run likedeer from a grown man that wontnotice a kid at all

All right let Master Pancho see whatHe can do said the Lieutenant Wehave a big bundle of ropes along readynoosed and if they are not too scaryhe can lariat them in an ea3j way likefastening a scarf and tie on drag sticksafter a while when they fall to grazingagain And to begin with we wantIrinHo feed that mare with a hatful ofcorn and stand around petting her tillthey get used to him

The Lieutenant then directed Sergtllariel to take 12 of the men aroundand post them in a circle in case any-thing

¬

should go wrong It mightntbe needed be said but we must takeno risks Take them about a quarterof a mile above that mare Sergeantand make them close in slowly andkeep well out of sight Well do thesame down here and if there should bea stampede the demon would be in thedice if wc dout get some of them any-how

¬

Pick out the fattest if they docome and aim at the shoulders

Pancho and the ambuscaders startedtogether while some of our men crossedthe glen to secure the left flank of ourrodeo That we were going to get ourtroubles worth of mule meat in someway or other seemed certain by thistime With one exception the muleswere browsing again

While Pancho approached the herdwith his tethering outfit the tramp dogsdrew near from the other side possiblyin the hope of catching one of thecripples astray

Dr Peter Fahrney Chicago 111

My Dear Sir I feel it my dnty to write toyou nnd tell you what your Vitalizer hasdone for me I wa tnkcu down with severestomach trouble It seemed that my liverand kidneys were entirely out of orderAlthough I had the best physician in townwho came daily it seemed that he could notgite me much relief I had been in bedseven weeks when I commenced havingset ere chills everyday which left me weakerand weaker

I was celling terriblv disconraged mynerves were so badly shattered that I conldhardly bear to hear a door slam I told thedoctor I would qnit him an that I did notthink anyone could help me and that if Iwas going to die I wouldnt die full ofdrugs

By chance my mother had received a copy ofyour paper The burpnse She had read itand wanted me to try your medicine andthen I happened to read in the HeligionsTelescope the testimonial of a man who hadused your Vitalizer These two thing3 inspired me with enough confidence so that Iconsented ti try once more

We sent for a trial bov It was only ashort time coming but it seemed to mo itwould never come I was in snch a deplorable condition I could neither eat nor sleepand oh such agony as I suffered in my backhead arms and limbs I felt that deathwould have been n relief I lost twenty fivepounds in weight and the cry was Whatcan we get that ho will eat

About four o clock my father arrived witha bos of italizer Ihey tore it open inshort order and commenced giving it according to directions that was Monday even-ing

¬

The next morning I felt wine betterI kept taking tho medicine regularly andmy iniproement wa3 steady

liiursday 1 got np hungry I was feelingwonderfully v ell considering my past condi-tion

¬

nud what is more I could eat somebreakfast My improvement kept right onso that the following week I got on the culti- -ator and w orked all day and I havo worked

every day since from twelve to thirteenhours It is now three weeks

Now the cry Ls AVhere can we get enoughfor him to eat I havent taken half ofthe medicine yet but I am taking it rightalong in smaller doses I thank God that thereei er wa3 a Peter Fahrney and that hi3 BloodVitalizer reached me lor not only I butother people as well say that I would havebeen dead if I had not obtained vour remedy My highest thanks to you my dearfriend Yours very truly

¬

Our picket line was the extremeright of the army We were informedthat the enemys cavalry were scoutingnot far off and would probably feelfor us during the night A breastwork of brush was built across the road

WATCHING FOB THE ENEMY

Every man was instructed what to doif we were attacked Tho pickets wereposted in groups of three or four men atintervals of about 30 rods m sight ofeach other One man watched behinda tree or shelter and the others sleptWhen the picket had been on watchtwo hours he waked one of his comradesto relieve him There were no fires nosmoking no talking all was quiet andall on duty watched intently

I was nervous from tho excitementof the past few days and from a senseof responsibility The woods were fullof strange sounds Owls were hootingand whippoorwilhs singing their mourn-ful

¬

songs Great vicious wolfish dogsthat had subsisted for months on thedead were prowling through the woods

Four time3 that night I visited everypicket post on my Hue and as thebones of men Eiiapped under my treador my foot struck a skull it required allmy nerve to keep from breaking downIlie men were alert and nervous itwas dangerous to approach them theywere likely to lire without challengingI arranged a signal by clapping myhands so that they would recognize mebut once I lost my bearings and wa3suddenly stopped by the ominous click-ing

¬

of a musket lock I quickly gavethe signal and was relieved to hear alow challenge Who cum dar Imade myself known nnd found that allof the men on the post were up andhad mo covered with their rifles Noattack was made that night buttowards morning one of the picketsnear the road challenged sharply andthen lired Ine yelping of a dog followed I went out to investigate Thepicket said that ho saw something creep-ing

¬

up towards him and when ho challenged it sprang towards him andthen Le shot Daylight revealed ahuge dog a most horrible lookingcreature lying dead not 20 yards fromthe pickets post I think that the mantold the truth and that the animalwould have attacked the soldier if ithad not been shot

The next afternoon we were calledin and followed the division whichhad moved to Salem Church eightmiles away
