We look down the Iske to ths Nar rows,, through whlch.. we paddled, to a chain, of small lakes of such sweet Iso lation and stillness that they would eeem the dwelling of the very spirit of the waters. . Jim Frjday brought us up here one irrldeacent evening when sky end lake were so wedded that It eeemed as If we moved in the center of a great pearl. The long troll, outtlng the water far behind us. and the soft dip of the paddle, did not disturb the quest of a porcupine, who pursued his calm way within a few feet of ua, on the rocks that girdled the shore. The bass roee fiercely end here we made our largest kill' and. lost our beat trolltng-apoon. Here Jim cut aome specially choice birch bark, of which he made a. sort of megaphone, to show -us how he ' "called the moose" Ja the season. .

We took hie word for It, that one night the pleaaing solo called II moose for a mad who got only one of them. Our camp also looks across the lake to the mainland, which Is covered with' virgin forest,- teeming .with game. It Is sur rounded by stillness and yet the still ness la filled - with sounds that come only with stillness. - The myriad in sects, the ''cheep" of the young part ridge and wild duck, the weird and fas-, elnatlng cry of tho loon, and alwaya at night the owls give voice..

It will be years before the tourist can destroy these seclusions, bat one must go farther away each year to be free from the Invaders, For each year we return with other forest-hungry workers,. who In their turn bring others to this health-giving, nerve-bracing, heart-restoring paradise.
