waters when the Sioux, the original
possessors of that beautiful sectlon'
were numerous. Not the least pleasure
of these trips was that of listening te
the old mans tales of those early days
I've played many trick on the red
skins" said old Thad, speaking in
ssoveniy dialect that 4 will not tran
scribe, but the neatest scheme | ever
worked on them was one played on a
couple of Sioux one summer in the for
ties.
Il had frozen my feet the winter be
fore, and was not well able to get
round on the prairie, SO made up my
mind to take good long rest and get
ready for the fall trapping. With that
idea ! rugged up brush camp on the
creek that joins these two big lakes,
and took things easy.
Il had been having nice quiet time
all by myself for a month or more be-
fore knew there was an Indian with
in fifty miles / could kill deer any day
within half mile of camp, so | hunted
just enough to keep meat on hand.
Most of my time / spent fishing and
padding about and specializing where
I'd be likely to find the best trapping
that fall.
Thinking about Indians didn't
trouble me bit. had had so many
brushes with the Sioux, and had always
made them suffer so much and then
got out of their way so mysteriously,
that they had sized me up as a great
medicine man, with a special manitou
to look out for me. They meant to
keep out of my way; and knew it,
But didn't go round with my eyes
shut, can tell you, for l knew too
much about Indians to expect them to
stay in one mind.
"One warm morning I got into my
canoe and started for the upper lake.
You know there are lots of bulrushes
round that lake, and l needed about a
canoe load of them to stop the leaks in
my cabin roof
After l had cut lot of the bull

as big around as my body, laid then
in the bottom of the canoe and padded
farther up the lake for little fishing

we struck that school of big black bass
last summer? WE'LL there were far
more bass there forty years ago.
IL cut me a good pole among the will
lows on the island, and tied big rock
fast to the rope at the bow of my canoe.
Then l padded close to the island,
hoisted the rock overheard for an
anchor and began fishing.

the hot sun made me sleepy There |

me. You see, he was sure had not an-
other shot ready.
| I'll be hanged if he wasn't coming
ashore to have 1t out against me with
my own weapons
when he was within five yards
lifted my gun and put the butt to my
! shoulder
He laughed in ridicule and showed
the canoe ashore. AT that instant
didn't see what to do except shoot him;
but the other Indian gave cry from
the canoe. He had seen me loading, and
his word told the young brave the fix he
was in.
We'll, sir, that word and nv mer-
cifulness in kind O hesitatin' about
shooting him was nearly the end of me,
for the reckless young rascal flung my
Ratchet so suddenly at my head that 1
only just managed to dodge it. Next
instant he sprang at me with the knife.
But he jumped straight at the
muzzle of my gun, and the force of the
blow that he got took the breath out
of him. He grabbed himself with both
hands and fell forward. Before he
could pick himself up I knocked him
senseless with the butt of the gun

Don't Break.

Margaret Bottome: Before my Win
dow is a beautiful green branch of a
tree now in full spring dress. Only
q few weeks ago and that same branch
was loaded with iCe-it seemed as if
it must break. l remember one hour
in which it seemed as if it could not
keep up. / expected to see it give
way, but it did not break and to-day
it is beautiful.
There are many in this sad world
who are rs my branch was-loaded
with ice. 1t seems as if their sorrows
We're like hail storms, and how to keep
up, how to hold on, seems to be the
one vital question. If one such should
read about my branch let me say to
you-Don't break! Cling for your life
to one truth, that GCd has not forgotten
you. He holds the winds in his fists
and the waves that now seem as if
they would swallow you up in the
hollow of his hands You may look
up and say
Chou hast charge no waves can
wash away
And let the storm that does Thy
work,
Deal with me as it may"
And 50 by simple faith in Gods good
ness and love you hold on, and when
in a future, like a branch near my
window, it will be all spring with you
you will remember your sorrows as
waters that have passed away.
Hold on. it is not always winter;
spring is coming. The birds are yet
to sing on the very branch now loaded
with ice; only don't break! My branch
did not have will Of its own, but we
have wills, end God can energize them,
and we must use our wills and say,
Though he slay me yet 1 will trust
in him." and he never Stays but to
make alive. Thou breakfast down to
build up, not destroy. Thou doest
right, o Lord, thou knowest best"
This trusting. though you may bend
to the blast, you will not break: you
will hold Oh, and you will see your
Spring.
