"Speakln' o" mirages," said the old
raucher, "we don't 'pear to git no
such mirages as we used to git. Dun
po whether the elyments has changed
or my eyesight In breakln' down, but I
don't see no inoae land llftln' with ev
erything drnwed.as if it war a palntin'
under your nose such as I seen often
when I fust couie to the country."
"What kind of mirages do you have
down here, "asked the gentleman from
Massachusetts, "those that elevate ob
jects or those that show objects hav
ing no existence?"
"Waal. I reckon you'd call 'em ele
vators."
"I've seen mirages on Lake Mich
igan." said the Chicago man, "but I
never knew whether they were the |
eastern shore elevated or the western
shore reflected."
"There ain't no reflection down here,"
remarked the rancher. "What you see
you see. I saw somepln oncet that
changed the hull course of my life.
It wan't no reflection, you bet yer life.'
"How was that?" asked the Massa
chusetts man.
"'Twas this a- way: When I war a J
young man I worked nt cow pnncbln'
for a man as lived on n ridge thnt
looked over n like rUIffc fifteen mile
away. Tho river run between each
rldgo midway, and the ground on encli
Bide the river war as like as two pens.
Tanner lived ou the east ridge? he
war the man I worked for? and fifteen
miles away on the other rldgo hi?
brother-in-law, Brant, had built n
house after the same plans. The same
architect had planned 'em both, and
lumber had been sawed for the two of
'em at oncet. Each stood In the cen
ter of a bis ranch.
"Tanner had a daughter, Eunice,
that tuk a shine to me. 1 war an In
nocent youns filler In them days and
hadn't no notion o' hookln' up with
any one and tried to keep her oflf my
scent, but she follered me like a blood
hound, and somehow, though I could
Kit rid o' most things, I couldn't git rid
o" her. Whenever I'd try It she'd set
down beside mo kind j' lovln' like, and
that 'd bo the end o' my tryln' to
shake her.
"Waal, at last she hived me, and tho
fust thing I knowed I had gone to the
ole man and axed for his gal. He was
wlllln", and so we was engaged, as
they say In tho towns. Eunice oncet
havln' lassoed me Kim mo a good deal
o' rope, Jlst as though we was married
and I couldn't git away nohow.
"What made It hard on ine wns that
I wanted another gal. That gal war
Sally Brant, Eunice's cousin.' Sally
war a quiet little thing and didn't run
after nobody. I couldn't sec very much
of her 'cause Eunice regarded me as
her property and wouldn't let me off
evenln's to ride over to the Brant
ranch, and daytimes I war fookln' after
the cattle.
"One mornln' I found myself lost.
There had been a heavy fog all nlpht.
and Instead of takln' my bcarln's be
fore It settled and goln' to sleep whar
I war I tried to pull through It. But
suddent, about 10 o'clock In the morn
In", the fog lifted and I found myself a
mile from the Brant ranch house.
Thlnkln' It would be a koo?1 chance to
Ko and tell Sally Brant that I war
goln" to be married, I rode over. Sally
was 011 the front veranda knlttln'
socks. 1 j'lned her aud as soon as I
could Kit up spunk told her that I war
settled to lie 'broke' by Eunice Tanner.
She didn't say a word; she Jlst bent
down, and I could sec that she war
crvln'.
"Of course thar war Jlst one thing to
do. I set down on the bench beside
her, put my amis around her, and"?
"Kissed her?'* asked the Chicago
man.
"Kissed her? No; I war lion 'able.
I war engaged."
"Well, ro on."
"We war sottln' facln' the vaticy. and
suddcut 1 llfte<l my eyes and thar be
fore me and lookln' hardly a stone's
throw away war the Tanner ranch
house. And thar 011 the varanda Rat
a feller and a gal In each other's anus.
Of course 1 don't mean to say that 1
could recognize people fifteen miles
away, but I knowed the couple must
'a' been Eunice nnd some feller. Al
though I would like to frit rid of Eu
nice, It made me mad to see her in
another feller's arms. I Jumps up and,
drawin' my shootln' Iron, plugs away
at the man. What did he do but the
same to me.
"I felt kind o' foolish as soon as it
war over, thlukin' my wcepon would
carry so far, and I set down ag'ln. The
feller must 'a* felt as I did, 'cause he
set down ag'ln. too, by his gal. Just as 1
did by mine. We turned our backs to
'eiu, but we didn't like their lookln'
even at our backs, so we went Into the
house.
"I tole Sally that I loved her and
wanted her to marry me. She re
minded that I was pledged to Eunice,
and I reminded her that, thanks to the
mirage, I had found Eunice out. Sally
then said, that beln' the case, It war
right for 111c to shako Eunice, but If 1
went back to her she'd lasso me ag'ln.
Recognlzln' this ap true. I proposed we
be married before goln' back. And so
we war.
"When I went back, a married man.
Eunice war mad enough to scalp me.
I charged her with goln' back on tne.
and she denied it. But me and Sally
both saw her, and that was all there
war about it. Anyway, my wife says
a noble, good man war saved from a
bad woman by the mirage."
"Did It ever occur to you," asked
the Massachusetts man, "that what
you saw was the reflection of your
selves?"
"Waal, now. I never thought o' that"
