PIONEER DAYS Injun and Whitey sat on the veranda of the Bar O Ranch house, with Sitting Bull between them.

One of Whitey's hands rested on the head of the dog, who leered at him lovingly.

Now that Whitey was back, Bull was so full of contentment that it almost gave him indigestion.
"Injun, do you remember the day Bull came ?" Whitey asked.

"And how I said maybe it was a good omen, and there ought to be something doing on the ranch?
Well, there has been something doing--on and off." "Um," said Injun, looking at Bull, with a gleam of appreciation in his eye.

"Him good med'cine." Whitey's night ride from the Hanley Ranch had created much favorable comment in the neighborhood, and Injun had come in for his share of praise.
