A stag bounds across the path of the
savage, but almost unnoticed. 1t is evil
IDENTIFY no mere hunting expedition, but
some secret errand which brings him go
early from the Mohican camp fire to the
shores of the Horizon. Cautiously he
moves among the trees until his eye
catches the CLEAN of the crystal water,
Near the shore he reaches a point with
which he seems To be familiar, He
crouches down behind a great mossy
boulder, and waits hour after hour, at
tentiye to eyery sound, and with ali the
tireless patience of the Indian warrior.
He hears naught but the sighing of the
breeze through the broughs, the ripple
of the water on the rocks, the chIrrup of
IA squirrel overhead,
But bark! A rustic in the shrubbery,
the cracking of twig, and suddenly an
Indian girl bright and beautiful of face
and form. whose single deerskin gar
ment scarcely conceal her 1.-THE and
graceful figure. sprapg into view like a
| Naiad of the wilderness,
