"Muchacho muchacho!" she cried, clapping her hands as she released her hold on Don Felipe's. "Carlos, the Caballero's horse!" she continued, addressing the vaquero that appeared in the doorway of the Inn at her summons and who advancing, took possession of Don Felipe's horse and led him away to the stables. "Let me look at you, Don Felipe," she continued, regarding him closely.

The expenses for laundry amount to about $5 a month. The necessity of employing a muchacho is nil, in the case of an unmarried employee who boards. Servants are far cheaper and better in the Philippines than in the United States. In a discussion of the salaries paid in the Philippine civil service the question of the leave allowed should be considered.

The rope has stranded cut by the edge of the rock, most probably and unless you can lower the muchacho to the bottom ere it parts altogether, he will be dashed to pieces!"

While he sat so a young man of about his own age rode up from the eastward with a great flourish, and giving over his horse to the muchacho, entered the wine shop and ordered dinner and a room for the night. Afterward he came out and stood in front of the inn and watched the muchacho cleaning his horse.

"El Lobo Muchacho," the don sneered. "El Lobo Muchacho Keed Wolf. I think we have your fangs drawn now, Señor Wolf! The Wolf is in a bad way. Alas, he cannot bite." He finished with a cruel laugh. But The Kid could bite and did! One of the fangs of the wolf, and a deadly one, remained to him. He used it now! Major Stover did not know how it happened. Kid Wolf's arms were lifted.

Kate Waddington had in her no guidance for the better Bertram Chester, who must be in him somewhere. She hugged this justification to herself. Perhaps it was not right to let him go; perhaps her heart and her duty were as one. A cock quail came out from the chapparal, saw her, and bobbed back; the feet of his flock rustled the twigs. Now he was raising his spring call "muchacho!" "muchacho!"

Presently, Montoya drew out the hand-carved belt and holster, held it up, and inspected it critically. He felt of it with his calloused hands, and finally gestured to Pete. "It is for you, muchacho. I made it. Stand so. There, it should hang this way." Montoya buckled the belt around Pete and stepped back. "A little to the front. Bueno! Tie the thong round your leg so. That is well!

You have placed me under a very heavy obligation, my friend, and I shall not forget it. "But there is still the future to be thought of. It is true that we have escaped by the skin of our teeth for the moment, Montalvo; for the moment only. But if I am any judge of character, that English muchacho will return, as he threatened he would; and then what are we going to do?"

He saw the little patio, and his mother cooking and moiling at crude housekeeping and finding time to caress and love him. And his father he saw, large, big-moustached and deep-chested, kindly above all men, who loved all men and whose heart was so large that there was love to overflowing still left for the mother and the little muchacho playing in the corner of the patio.

So of his own accord he had begun to watch them when a child of six; and the padre had taken the wild, half-scared, spellbound creature and made a musician of him. "There, Felipe!" he said now. "Can you do it? Slower, and more softly, muchacho. It is about the death of a man, and it should go with our bell." The boy listened.
