“I am pleased to welcome you back
to Gott’s country, Mrs. Vagstaff,” he
said. “Und Jet me carry dot suld case

They walked two blocks to the
King’s hotel, where Lauer’s family
was housed. - He was In for supplies,

It dashed into Hazel’s mind that
here was a heaven-sent opportunity to
reach the cabin without facing that
hundred miles in the company of
chance-hired strangers. But she did

Fort George.. .She guessed that Bill-
had selected him /because he was a
fixture. , J.
She sat down at his counter and
wrote her message. Just a few terse
lines. And when she had delivered it
to Courvolseur. she went back to the
hotel. There was.nothing now to dp
but wait. And with the message un
der way she found herself impatient
to reach the cabin, to spend the wait
ing days where she had first found
Happiness.. She could set her house in
order against her ninn’s coming. And
if the days dragged, and the great,
lone land seemed to close inland press
inexorably upon her, j=he would have
to be pationVvory patient. ‘ .
Jake was held up, waiting for sup-

famine. Two days later the belated
freight arrived. He loaded his wagon,
a ton of goods for himself, a like
weight of Hazel’s supplies and be
longings. A goodly load, but .be drove
out of Fort Geofrge with four strap
ping bays arching their powerful
necks, and champing on theRlt, ~
“Four days make it by der
ranch,” Jake chuckled. “Mlt der mule

take me, mlt half der loat.”
Four Altogether pleasant and satis
fying days Jhey were to Hazel, The
worst of the fly pests were vanished
for the season. A crisp touch of frost
sharpened the night winds. Indian
summer hung Its mellow haze over the
land. The clean, pungent nlr that sift
ed through the forests seemed doubly
sweet after the vitiated atmosphere of
town. Fresh from a gridiron of dusty
streets and stone pavements, and but
stepped, as one might say, front days
of imprisonment in the narrow con
fines of a railway coach, she drank the
wtney irtr in hungry gulps, and Joyed
in the soft yielding of the Jurf be
neath her feet, the fern and peavlne
carpet of the forest floor. »
It was her pleasure at night to sleep
ns she and Bill had slept, with her face
bared to the stars. She would draw
her.bed n little aside from the camp
fire and from the low .seclusion of a
thicket lie watching the nimble flames
nt their merry dance, smiling lazily at
the" grotesque shadows cast by Jake,
and his frau as they moved about the

told her thdt Fill had tarried n few
days iit the cabin, and then struck out
alone for the mines. And he had not
said when he would he hack.
Mrs. letter, unchanged from a year
earlier, welcomed her with pleased
friendliness. And Jake left the two
of them and the chubb.v kiddies in the
King’s office while he betook himself
about .his business. Hazel-haled his
wife and..the..children to her room as
soon ns one was assigned to her. And
there, almost -before she knew it, she
was murmuring brokenly her story in
to an ear that listened with sympathy
and understanding. Only a woman
can grasp some of a woman’s needs. «
Grettn Lauer patted Hazel’s shoulder
with a motherly hand, and hade her
cheer up. * .
“Home’s the place for you, dear,”
she said, smilingly. “You just cbme
right along with us. Your man will
come quick enough when he gets*
word. And we’ll take good care of you
In the meantime, La; I’m all excited
oyer.lt. It’s the finest thing could hap-
pehsfor you both. Take It from me,
dear mV I know. We’ve had our trou
bles. JiXe and I. And. seeing I’m only
six months short of being a graduate
nurse, you needn’t fenr. Well, well!”
“I’ll need to fiftve food hauled In,"
Hazel reflected. “And some things I
brought with me. I wish Bill were
here. I’m afraid I’ll be a lot v of both
er. Won’t you be heavily loaded, as It
is?”
She recalled swiftly the odd, make
shift team that Lauer depended on—
the mule, lop-eared and solemn, “und
Gretehen. der cow.” She had cash
and drafts for over three thousand dol
lars on her person. She wondered If
It would offend the sturdy independ
ence of these simple, kindly neighbor's,
If she offered to supply a four-horse
team and wrtgci.n for their mutual use?
But she had been forestalled there, she
learned In the next breath.
“Oh. bother nothing,” Mrs. Lauer de
clared. “Why, we’d be ashamed If we
couldn’t help a little. And far’s the
lotfd goes, you ought to see the four
beautiful horses your husband let
Jakeiiav.e. You don’t know how much
Jake appreciates it, nor wl\at x a fine
man )ie thinks your husband is.' We
needed horses so bad, and didn’t have
the money to buy. So Mr. Wagstuff
didn’t SHy a thing but got the team for
us, and Jake’s paying for them in
clearing and plowing and making im
provements on your land. Honest,
they could pull twice the load we’ll
have. There’s a good wagon road
most of the way now. Quite a lot of
settlers,, too. as much as fifty or sixty
miles out. And we’ve got the finest
garden you ever saw. Vegetables
enough to feed four families all win

to live in one again. Never a day have
the kiddles been sick. Suppose it is a
bit out of the world? You're all .the
.more __ pleased when somebody ' does
happen along. Folks is so different In
a new country like this. Thpre’s plen
ty for everybody—and everybody,
helps, like neighbors ought to.”
Lauer came up after a time, and
Hazel found herself unequivocally in
their hands. With the matter of trans
posing herself and supplies thus
•solved, she set out to find Felix Cour
volseur—who would know how to get
word to Kill. He might come back to
the cabin in a month or so; he might
not come back at all unless he heard
from her. She was smitten with a
great fear that he might give her up
as lost to him, and plunge deeper Into
the wilderness in.some mood of reck
lessness. And she wanted him, longed
for liinvtf only so that she could make
amends.'
She easily found Courvolseur, a tall
spare Frenchman, past middle age.
Yes, he could deliver a message to BUI
Wagstaff; ♦hat Is, he could send a
man. Rill Wugstaff-was in the Klap-
pan range. ' X _ -

to carry her, through whatever black
days might come to‘Tier there alone.
She would gladly have cooked her
supper In fitter kitchen firepluce, and
laid down to .sleep Under her o>vn roof.
It seemed the natural thing to do. But
she had not expected to find the cabin
livably arranged, and she had prom
ised the Lauers to spend the night
with them.- So presently she closed the
door and walked away through the
woods. A ? '■ . .. :; . - . j-

September and October -trooped
past, and as they marched the willow
thickets and poplar groves grew yel
low aud brown, and carpeted the floo;
of the woods with fallen leaves. Shrub
and tree bared gaunt limbs to every
autumn wind. Only-the spruce and
pine stood forth,,in their year-round
habiliments of green. The days short
ened steadily. The nights grew Jong,
and bitter with frost. Snow fell, blank

would linger on the edges of the clear-'
ing. Often nt night she would-lift her
self on elbow at some unexpected
sound, heF heart leaping wild'with ex
pectation. And always she would lie
down again, and sometimes press her
clenched hand to her lips'to keep back
the despairing cry. Always she ad
jured herself to be patient, to wait
doggedly as Bill woiitfi have waited, pr
mak4 due allowance for immen.sity'of
distance, for the manifold delays which
might overtake a messenger furing
across those silent miles or amanTiur-
rying to his home. Many things might
hold him back. But be would come.
It was Inconceivable that he might
not come..
Meantime, with only a dim con
sciousness of the fact, she underwent
a marvelous- schooling in adaptation,
self-restraint. . She had work of a sort,
tasks such as every, housewife finds
self-imposed in her own home. ^She
was seldom lonely. She marveled at
that. It was unique In her experi
ence. All her 6ld dread of the pro

which Infolded like a prison wall, dis

unloaded his own^ stuff, and drove to
his neighbor’s with the rest.
“I’ll walk back after a little,” Hazel
told him, when he had piled her goods
In one corner of the kitchen.
The rattle of the wagon died away.
She was alone—nt home. Her eyes
filled as she 1 roved restlessly from
kitchen to living-room and on Into the
bedroom nt the end. Bill had .un
packed:- The rugs were down, the
books stowed In familiar disarray up
on their shelves, the bedding spread in
semi-disorder where he had last slept
und gone away without troubling to
smooth It out In housewifely-fashion.
She camp back to the living-room
and seated herself In the big chair.
She had expected to he lonely, very
lonely. But she was not. Perhaps
that would come later. For the pres

Often, sitting before her glowing
firepluce, watching a flame kindled

herself carried from the pile outside,
she pondered this. H defied her pow

a 'welcome resting place. She turned
£er gaze out the open door where the
forest fell away 1ft vast undulations
to a range of snow-capped mountains
purple In the autumn haze, and a versA 1
that Bill had once quoted came back
th her: <r"

She blinked. The town—It seemed
to have grown remote,, a fantasy In
which she had played a poppet part.
But she was home again. If only the
gladness of-It endured strong enough
1
elsewhere, to do'" otherwise. It was
home, she refleett)*!'; perhaps that was
why.
A simple routine served to fill her
days. She kept her house shining, she
cooked her food, carried ip .her fuel.
Except on days of- forthright storm
she put on her snowshoes,' and with
a little rifle in the crook of her arm
prowled at random through the woods !
—partly because It gave her pleasure
to range, sturdily afield, partly-for the
physical brace of exertion in the crisp
sir. Otherwise she curled comfortably
before the fireplace nndlsewed, or read
something out of Bill’s catholic as
sortment of books.

to drop into their cabin, came one of
her neighbors to see If all were well
with' her. ,
Quite as a matter of course Jake
kept steadily replenished -for her a
great pile of firewood. Or they would

It sounded like a pronouncement of
Bill’s. But Lauer did not often grow
serious.. Mastly ..fie was jovially cheer
ful, and his wifjj likewise. The. North
had emancipated them, and they were
loyal to the source of their deliver
ance. And Hazel understood, because
she herself hail found the wild lund a
benefactor, kindly in its silence, rest
ful in Its forested peuce, a cure for
sickness of-soul. Twice now it hud
rescued her from herself.
November and December went their
’'appointed way—and still - no word of
Bill. If now and then her pillow was
wet she struggled mightily agulnst de
pression. She wus not lonely in the
dire significance of the word—but she
longed passionately lor him. And
she held fust to her fuith that he
would come;

Juke Lauer’s wife came to the cabin
to 'stay.
Hazel sat up, wide awake, on the In
stant. There \yas not the' slightest „
sound. She had been deep In sleep.
Nevertheless she felt, rather than
knew, that some one was in the living-
room. Perhaps the sound of the door
opening hud filtered through her slum
ber. She hesitated an instunt, nqt
through fear, because In the months of
living alone fear had utterly forsaken
her ;- but hope had leaped so often,
only to fall slckenlngly, that she was
half• persuaded it must be a dream.
Still the impression strengthened. She
slipped out of bed. The door of the
bedroom stood slightly ajar.
Bill stood before the fireplace, his
shaggy fur cup-pushed far buck on his
head, his gauntlets swinging from the
cord about bid neck. She had left a
great bed of coals on the hearth, and
the glow shone redly on his frost-scub-
bed face. But the marks of bitter trail
bucking, the marks of frostbite, the
stubby beard, the tiny icicles' that still
clustered on his eyebrows; while these
traces of hardship tugged at her heart
they were forgotten when she saw the
expression that overshadowed his face.
Wonder and unbelief and longing were
all mirrored there, c She' took a shy
step forward to 4 see what riveted his
gaze. And despite the choking sen
sation in her throat she smiled—for
she had tuken off her little, beaded
moccasins and left them lying on the
bearskin before the fire, and he was
staring down ut them.like a man fresh-
wakened from a dream, unbelieving
and bewildered. -
* With that she opened the door und
rnn to him. He started, as if she had
been a ghost. Then he opened his arms
and drew Jier close to him.
“Bill, Bill, what made you so long?"
she whispered. “I guess it served me
right, but It seemed a never-ending
time.”

He chuckled at the recollection.
Hazel fit the lamp, and stirred up the
fife, plying It with wood. Then she
slipped a heavy bathrobe over' her
plghtgown and went Into the chilly
kitchen, eftMTjfing therefrom presently
with a trnyrof food and a kettle of wa
ter to make ooffee. This she set on the
tire. Wherever she moved Bill’s eyes
fpMowed her with a gleam of Joy, tlfic-
'tured with smiling Incredulousness.
When the kettle was safely bestowed
on the coals, he drew her on his knee.
There for a minute she perched In rich
content. Then she rose.
“Come very quietly with me, Bill,”
she whispered, with a fine air of mys-
teVy. “I want to Show.you something.”
“Sure! What is it?" he asked.
“Come- and see," she smiled, and
took up the lamp. Bill fdllowed obedi
ently.
• Close up beside her, bed stood a
small, square crib. Hazel set thejjffnp
on a table and, turning to the bundle
of blankets which filled this ne,w piece
of furniture, drew back one corner, re
