Dick Ramsey and t bad gone west to make our fortunes. Whaé that means

' Done but an eastern boy who has tried

it can tell,

We roughed it together, sometimes faring well when we happened to fall into the camp of a hospitable western- er, but more often tramping it from village to village looking for the work which was never found and wondering when we sbould strike our “streak” of luck.

Finally we separated, Dick to take the position of station agent at Lake- ville, a new settlement, and I to go on to Riverdale, ten miles beyond, to hold a similar position. We could talk by wire, but we found that further com- munication would be impossible, for we were well tied down and after our separation did not see each other again.

Dick was a gentle sort of fellow, one of those dreamers who never get on in a worldly way, but the dearest com- panion imaginable. I missed him ter- ribly for awhile, but his occasional talk at the wire teld me he was alive and well.

One afternoon there came a frantic eall at the wire, and I hurried to the instrument to hear Dick tapping off the words that the express train had been delayed and to hold the “runa- way,” due at the station ten minutes later, until I heard from him. Direct- ly after the message came the line: “Express train in sight. Semething wrong. Stand by.” I waited a full minute; then came Dick’s familiar tap tap: “Express is being run by strange hands. They have stopped at this sta- tion. Send relief.”

There wes a second’s silence; then, before I could flash the alarm along the line, the tapping began again. It ran: “Everything all right. Goodby.”

I signaled for him to repeat the mes- sage. and again came the words: “Ev- erything all right. Goodby.”

I held the instrument in my hand and debated with myself upon my course of conduct. I did not want to needlessly send the alarm along the line. On the other hand, why hed Dick sent his first message? I touched the instrument and asked, “Is everything all right, Dick?’ And the answer came back, “Everything is all right.”

It did not seem at all like Dick’s touch, but I laid it to nervousness and quieted my fears while I waited for the “runaway.”

I recalled that Dick had told me over the wire the previous evening that the would have a large sum of money aboard, which it was to trans- fer to the express at his station.

When the “runaway” came rp, I notti- fied the engineer that the express was Waiting for him at Lakeville, and I also casually mentioned that the alarm had come from there, but that after- ward I had received a message that all was well.

Iie seemed disturbed and advised me to repeat the story to the United States marshal aboard, which I did, with the result that the train pulled out of the Station prepared for emergencies, though neither they nor I thought any- thing of the hasty message that had been flashed to me,

Ten minutes later the message came

bbe. \e : o?? runaway

over the wives from Lakeville: “Found train in charge of highwaymen. Dick ii:nimsey purdered dt instrument. Ob-

ject was to rob the ‘runaway.’ but we

sverpowered them after a desperate struggle. Notify the stations along the line to send relfof.”

This, In brief, was the story of the Yoeaik of Ramsey, and after J seen him laid away in the grave- yerd at Lakeville 1 packed up my scods and journeyed farther on. for | could not remain so near the scene of my old friend’s death.

Well, strange things happen. and after I had feund a position with the same company 50 miles away I was as- signed back to Lakeville.

1 found the village grown into a set- § tleinent of very fair size and the sim- pie little station replaced by a very pre tentions one, while the humble little churchyard where they had buried peor Dick Ramsey was gay with fiow- ering shrubs, and spires of marble lift. here and there among Dick's grave was still mark- mi by the rude cross I Lad placed over it.

m 24 ee ore ut Wes a terh I titi baw art, iep I watched bk: eUvy as shted frojm his p: car and vd the handsome victoria which

ed him behind his spanking team ip to his home on Lakeville heights. (iften the presideut cid not go up to

the city, and on these oceasions he wired me on his private line, and I

wired to the city for him.

One day, Chancing to sit at the in- strumenut, there came a eall on the president’s wire, and, responding, f re- ceived this message: “Let me kuow if the road is clear.”

A minute later I called up his private wire and tapped, “The road is clear.”

“All right,”’ came back the answer.

It was a simple enough message, but it set my pulses throbbing. Mechan- ically I touched the button and repeat- ed the message, “The road is clear,” and immediately came back the words, “Al right.”

I sat at the instrument like a man in a dream, and my thoughts were with Dick, who had sat at the same spot five years before and had touched that same instrument. What was there in that reply that so fascinated me, or was it the anniversary of poor Dick’s death that made me fanciful?

That afternoon the president came down to the station on business, and I looked at him closely. He must have seen me watching him, for he shifted his position uneasily and nerveusly handled the instrument. I may say that he was au expert operator and preferred telegrap!:ing his messages toe writing them.

As 1 watched him I remembered hearing the strange story of his rise; how from an operator on a distant read he had suddenly become a stockholder, a director and finally the president of the road, and how his wealth and hold- ings were known far and wide.

He seemed ill at ease that day, and I withdrew my eyes and busied myself elsewhere. But more than once he caught me looking at him.

Twice that day the presideut drove down to the station, and slowly he drove home again, as though he were disturbed about something. The third time he came it was almost dark, and I heard him send his coachman home, telling him that he would follow soon on foot.

For half an hour the president bus- fed himself around the station, a most unusual thing for him, and when he finally took leave it was to walk bur- riedly away in the direction of the churchyard, a journey which I often teok myself,

Scarcely realizing what I was doing, I pulled my cap over my eyes and started after him. What excuse I would inake if he turned and saw me I knew not. I only understood that some force was pulling me onward and that same force was taking me over the same road and in the very footprints of President Greydon of the Lakeville and Laska railway.

To my surprise, he turned the corner as he reached the church and, plodding his way past it, opened the gate which led into the churchyard and slowly

I must have stepped upon a twig, for a sound betrayed me. Springing to his feet, he turned and faced me, not ten feet away.

With a cry of rage he sprang toward me. “Soe you followed me!” he cried fiercely between his teeth. “You dog- ged my steps!”

He was a powerful man, but in the struggle which followed I easily mas- tered him and had him pinioned, white and panting. “Do not add another murder,” I said fiercely, “to that of Dick Ramsey.”

“How do you knew?” he whispered.

Poor Quality of Blood

& Frequent Cause of Consumption, Heart Failure and Other Constitutional Dis- eases—Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food as a Blood Buticer.

The heart, the lungs, the stomach, ¢he liver, the kidneys, and bowels can- not perform their functions and repair wasted tissue when supplied with blood that » deficient in nutritive qualities, and sooner or later the weakest organ succumbs to the attacks of disease.

The indications of thin, watery blood are paleness of the lips, gums, ard eye- lids, shortness of breath, weakness of heart action, and languid, despondent feelings. These symptoms are usually accompanied by nervousness, sleepless- ness, and general weakness of the body.

It is positively useless to doctor the symptoms, and injurious to use opiates or stimulants. Cure can be brought about gradually and certainly by the use of Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food, which contains in cendensed pil! form all the elements required for strengthening ard revitalizing the blood. As a blood builder and nerve restorative, Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food is of inestimable Yalue. In pill form, 50 cents a box, yt all dealers, or Edmanson, Bates & 49., Toronto.
