She plunged downward. along the
narrow trail, rapidly, heedlessly, reck-

crowned her of their own cruel will.

Now she was in the bed of
the dry bayou. Dark trcc-lined walls
climbed upward on both sides of her,
far. far-interminably. She had turned
and twisted about SO sinuously among
the scraggy bushes and the thick trees
that she had grown bewildered. Which
of these upward-climbing trails ought
she to take to get back to Ninette?
Only to Nincttc. There was no one
else she cared to go back to in all the
wide world. One Of them she must
take. She could not spend the night
there, where every rustic among the
dry twigs con jurcd up the Shiny con-
volutions CT rattlesnake or deadly
moccasin. She made her choice. She
climbed upward. steadily, wcarily, but
rapidly. The steep walls began to fall
away from her. The shadows grew
less black. The gray sky once more
spread before her in an unbroken ex-
panse over n treeless field. But-she
was on the wrong side of the bayou!
She was quite sure she had never seen
that small cabin, almost hidden away
under heavy gourd-vine growth
There was a glow as of ire, shining
family through the cracks of the daubed
log walls. At least here was humanity
and possible guide back through that
terri ole bayou.
She approached the door of the hut
timorously and pushed it open. There
was no one inside. A wood fire burned
low upon the hearth, but evidently it
had not been replenished for quite
awhile. The logs had fallen apart, and
their charred ends pointed upward in
dependently of each other. But warmth
and shelter both were here.
She was shivering from exposure,

stood in front of the fireplace. Nora
flung herself into one and spread her
chilled hanlls out over the blaze. 1t was
inadequate to her needs. With pet
ulaut movement she reached for the
clumsy tongs and brought the divorced
logs into closer connection. A bright
fame leaped up to reward her for her en-
ergy. and brought into view something
which had escaped her notice in the
previous obscurity of the room.
