Wboae good deeds will ne'er be at loss
She will help the needy and wounded

said tbat ahe would shoot me U J

tried to steal In at night through . a
window, and she drenrbed me In bot
water. I built a wigwam at the edge
of the forest, and stared there for Ave

no matches, no grub: and when; I got

laughed Jan, undoing bis pack. "How

Tve lost all count or time, but It's

It's going to take all winter to get It
down!" ......
"It'a not the plague. Go back and
tell your wife ao." But Crolsset said
be would go to Tjic Bain.
Jan left huu beside a good Ore and
turned Into the southwest to burn
tanglota and bis cabin. Then be con
tinued westward." At tbe bead of tbe
Porcupine be found tbe remains of
three burned wigwams, and from one
of thorn he dug out charred bones. .

hours after he bad encountered Jan.

own language to Williams. "A com
pany msn. with a one eyed leader and
four trailers, left tbe Gray Otter to
burn tbem." Williams took down bis
birch bark moose born snd bellowed a
weird signal to Cummins, wbo opened
a crack of bis door to listen, wltb kle
llsse close beside him.
"Thoreau is In tbe thick or It to the
south," be railed. "There's too mncb
of It for blm, and I'm going down
wltb tbe dogs. Crobwet will stsy In
tbe store for a few days."
Tbe days brought quirk rbanges
now. One morning tbe moose born
called Cummins to tbe door. It was
the fifth dsy after Williams bad gone
sooth. '
"There was no smoke this morning,
and I looked through tbe window,"
shouted Crolxset "Uukee snd tbe old
man are both dead. I'm going to burn
the cabin." ,
A stifled groan of anguish fell from
Cummins' Hps as be went like a dazed
man to bla cot and flung himself face
downward a poo It . Mellsse could nee

crying like a child, and. twining ber
arma tjgbtly about bla neck, she sob
bed out ber passionate grief against
bis rough cheek.
The next morning when Cummins
went to awaken ber bis face went as
white aa death. Mellsse was not
asleep. Her eyes were wide open and
staring at blm, and ber soft cheeks
bnrned witb tbe bot glow of Ore.
"Too are sick. Mellsse," be whisper
ed hoarsely. "You are sick r
He fell upon 4 his knees beside ber
and lifted ber fare In his hands. Tbe

ago. In tbat other room a few atepa
away. : . . ,
"I want Jan." ahe pleaded. "I want
Jan to come bark to me!"
"I will send for blm, dear. , He will
come back eoou. I will go out. and
send Crolsset" ,
He hid bis fare from ber as be drag
ged himself away. . Crolsset saw blm
coming and rnme out of the store to
meet blm. A hundred yards away
Cummins stopped.
"Crolsset for tbe love of God. take
'a team and go after Jan Tborenu." be
railed. "Tell blm that Mellsse la dying
of tbe plague. Hurry. burryT
"Night and'dayT shouted Crolsset
' Twenty minutes Inter from tbe cab
In window Cummins saw blm start.
""Jan will be here very soon. Me
llsse." be said, running bis fingers
gently through ber bslr. Toward
evening there came a rhange. Tbe
fever left tbe eblld'a rheeks. Her
eyes .rlosed and she fell asleep
Through tbe nlgbt Cummins sat near
the door, bnt In the gray dawn, over
come by his long vigil, his bead drop
ped upon bis breast and be alum
be red.
When be awoke tbe cabin was filled
wltb light He beard a sound and.
stnrtled. sprang to bis feet Mellsse
was at the stove building a Ore!
"I'm ' better this morning, father.
Why didn't you sleep until breakfast
was ready?"
Cummins stared. Then he gave a
shout made a rush for ber and. catch
ing ber np In his arms, danced about
the cabin like a great bear, overturn
Ing the chairs and allowing the room
to fill with smoke In bis wild Joy.
'It's what you saw through the win
dow tbat made you sick, Mellsse." he
cried, putting her down at last , "1
thought" "He paused and added." hia
voice trembling. "I thought you were
going to be sick for more than one
day, my sweet little womanf
He opened one of tbe windows to let
In the fresh air of tbe morning. -
When: Crolsset returned he did not
find a red flag over Cummins' cablu.
uor did be bring word of Jan. For
three days be had followed the trails
to the south without finding tbe boy.
But be brought back other news. Wil

Cree wigwam on the lower Porcupine.

the oorth. In another search for Jan.
They found oeltber trace nor word of
blm after passing tbe Gray Otter, and
Cummins gsve np bope.
It was not for long tbat tbelr fears
could be kept from Mellsse. This first
bitter grief that bad come Into ber
life fell npon ber wltb a fore which
alarmed Cummins aad cast him into
deep gloom. Wltb growing despair
Cummins ssw bla own efforts fall.

sweet to ber. and be waa gone. Mnkee,

The readers of . thia paper : will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dregded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is
the only positive enre known to the

constitutional disease, requires a con
stitutional treatment . Hall's Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up
the constitution and assisting nature
in doing its work. The proprietors have
