So the steamship finally went on
again with a churning OF the water
that again seemed terrible and a horse
whistle blew, which, of course. Billy
believed to be the voice of the monster.
and then he was more glad than ever
that the men had not found him in the
fog, for he knew that he would be
scared to death if he had to talk to

How it happened l don't know, but.

wind blew his boat to the rocks and

ing that he was at his journeys end.
got out on the rocks. Then his boat
drifted away and he was alone on the
rocks-that is, alone all except ti.e sea
lions.
Billy believed these sea lions to be
some more monsters and he watched
them swim about and dive into the
water to catch fish and climb slowly
back on the rocks. He did not like TO
hear them roar, for he was sure that
they were talking about him. He
thought, too, that he would walk home,
but he found that there was water on
every side. The wind cleared the fog
away tor quite a distance and Billy
then saw where he was.
His boat was drifting steadily off
from him. He did not care much. being
too young to know that he was in
danger from the sea lions il they
should decide. after talking il over.
that he was some odd kind OF a fish
that should be eaten; in danger from
falling from the rocks and being
drowned IN the ocean; in peril of being
kept on the rocks to starve if the fog
should again be thick so that no one
could see him.
Billy did wish that he had the sand
wiches that had drifted away with his
boat, for the sea air had made him
hungry. But he comforted himself by
curling up in a place where there was
no sea lion and went to sleep His
dreams were queer enough.
He slept long time. When he woke
the sky was sprinkied with stars. All
around him the sea was dark and heav-

and ran far up the beach with foam
flying above them, just like racehorses
with white names.
But this was not what took Billy's
first attention. For. not far away, he
saw something red come out of no

look him through and through and
then seemed to close up. Then, little
later another something that was
green, as it looked to Billy, also came
from nowhere, looked at him as if he
were something good to eat and also
went out.
Till won-n-n-der wha-a-t tha-a-t
i-s-s?' said Billy, and his voice woke
drowsy old sea lion that rolled over
and fell into the water with a great
splash and made the water shiny for a
minute as IL il had fire in il.
Then Billy. who had never heard OF

Billy thought that it would be better
to play rcek-a-boo with the giant than
to have il seem that he was afraid; for
he had learned, in all the fairy stories
he knew. that the brave boys were the
only ones that managed to get away
from the giants, and he wanted to get
away.
For long time he watched the giant
with the red eye and the green eye
which you and ! know was only a
lighthouse with a lantern that turned
round and round. so that a light
through a green glass would be seen
for a little. and then light with a

of the men reached for Billy and took
him off the rocks.
And when he came 20 the beach Billy
saw mis- mother and she was crying
aloud. "Oh, my Billy. my Billy boy:
thank God he is alive and coming back
to me. Oh. Billy. Billy. my darlingt"
And when he was ashore his mother

times. it seemed to him. And his father
hugged and kissed him. and so did a
lot of women that were on the beach,
and ne was surprised to see that some

Then his mother choked up again and

Billy saw that his mother wanted him

EMoS was mighty medicine
man among the Indians in the
early days among the Sierra Ne
vada Mountains, before the face
of a white man had ever been seen on
the North American continent. A
greater and better medicine man than
he, whom we would call magician,
had commanded that wherever Lemos
went he should carry a witch drum,
which, beaten by magic and without
hands. always told when Lemos was
drawing near.
Taw Wee Nee. the Indain chief whom
every one loved, was hated by Lemos,
as truly bad people always hate the
good ones. But Legnos was afraid of
Taw Wee Nee, who was mighty war
rior. who, naked handed and alone, had
fought with and conquered the greatest
of the grizzly bears on the mountain
side.
Lemos would have done harm to Taw
Wee Nee if he could have surprised
him. but the beating of the witch drum
told of his coming. In the middle of
the night Taw Wee Nee had started
from sleep to hear the faint sound of
that drum. AS he hunted in the depths
Of the forest its rafting sound broke in
upon him. Bears. wolves and noun
tain lions ran away at that noise.
Trees shivered in midsummer; the
brooks stopped flowing; flowers hung
their heads and withered when Lemos
approached. So men and all nature
knew of the evil in the heart of Lemos.
Beware" sang the west wind to
Taw Wee Nee
DO not go near Lemos," sighed the
solemn old pine tree as it nodded at
Taw Wee Nee.
Even the old bald eagle screamed the
Nm Of y1rith
among the crags and sailed over the
canyons that were deepest on steady
wing and warned Taw Wee Nee
No" stoutly answered Taw Wee Nee
to the eagle, Il will not flee, but seek
Lemos and make an end to this. Last
year the corn was ruined when Lemos
passed through the fields. The cattle

yellow fangs instead OF teeth made him
look dreadful. His skin was covered
with spots. AS he ate the flesh of the
bear he fondled a snake that curled
around his neck and fought with him
for share of the meat
A hundred wicked years had wasted
the body of Lemos until he was so thin
that his hands seemed to be almost
transparent But every year had made
his eyes sharper and more cruel. Now
they seemed to be on fire with hatred
and triumph as they gazed on Taw
Wee Nee.

croaked Lemos, while his witch drum
beat sullenly at his side.
Il did not come to say fine words

Nee, but to rid the world of curse
That curse is you. Lemos
You are then more welcome than

Hardly were these words out of his
mouth before Lemos, doubling himself
