the lodge of the brave Blackcoat. Her small brown fingers proved quick in stringing beads and weaving grasses, and the trappings that delight the h. dian child were hers while from every harm she was protected.
 But that was before Blackcoat made friends with the white man, McBee.
 Melee lived in hut several miles from Blackcoat. his lazy existence eked out by hunting and fishing, with frequent demand on his wits.
 His rambles took him one time to the camp of the Cherokees where he learned the history of little Cry-in- the-Grass, whereupon he determined upon plan for advancing his own interests at the expense of the little Osage captive.
 To this end he cultivated the ac- quaintance of the mighty Blackcoat and finally succeeded in getting an invitation 10 his lodge.
 No palG-face was ever quite so nice to the red man as was Melee while the guest of Blackcoat, and TO man ever so greatly appealed to the stoical chief. for the white man had q great sorrow. No child had ever come to gladden. his hearthstone, though he had been ten years married. and the disappointment of all the years had been the lack of a little one 10 play about his hearth as Cryin-the-Grass played about the lodge of Blackeoat He drew charming pictures Of such future as he had planned for a girl child and said he would give all his worldly possessions. which he repre- sented ss being some account fo' such lovely child as little Cry-in- the Grass
 To ell his speech Blaekcoat made no answer. but his words were taking desired effect.
 Blackcoat loved the child but she was not his own. and after thinking of the matter many days he deter mined to bring great joy 10 the heart of the lonesome white man by giving the child into his care, for said he The white man can do much more for little Cry in-the-Grass than the req nan, even though he be a chief.

little soft speech to Cherokee chief as unsuspecting in peace as ter rible in war, and a COW and calf.
 There was little danger that Black coat would ever discover that he had disposed of the child. If he did it would be easy to say she had been sent away to school.
 The little Osage captive went down the river with Mccall. There were a few other slaves, but either because she was more valuable or because she amused Mccall with her bright ways, the trader kept her with him.
 With the boats ill charge of two French watermen the voyage down the Arkansas was begun.
 The light craft was padded down stream easily, passing beautiful stretches of forest growth, water-wil- lows where birds nestled, and long stretches of sandbar where water fowl he'd their habitation Sometimes a far glimpse of the blue Ozarks came into view and sometimes a nearer picture of some shaded place where deer stood on the waters edge gag ing curiously at the strange appear ance on the river. At long intervals a settlers shack was seen and oftener the blue smoke rising upward from some Indian camp.
 When night came the party camped, sleeping by burning fire which kept back the panther that cried in the mountains.
 None of the slaves were of interest 10 the watermen save the little one with Mccall, and they determined 10 ask the trader for her history
 So on a nigh; when the party had stopped but a few hours distance from the Post of Arkansas, the watermen went to the camp of Mccall.
 Through the open door as they ap preached they saw the child sitting III the firelight while Mccall made fg ures on a bit of paper.
 Look" said one, her hair is straight and black and shines like silk!"
 And her nose-and mouth--an1 eyes!" exclaimed the other, no negro is her father"

can teach her the ways Of white peo pie and their lodge will be hers
 MeBee was overcome with joy when he heard that the little Osage was to come into his possession, Hut she must come to me by bill of safe '' he said.
 Blackcoats brow darkened The child was not for sale and an insult was about to be offered But Melee hastened to make explanation
 Yes" he said, "I must give you something, else when the white mans government makes treaty with the Osage there will be trouble. It is to protect the little one"
 When McBee had fully made clear the necessity for such a transaction in the interest of the child. Black coat accepted a COW and calf and the little Osage belonged to the white man.
 There was no parting between the chief and the child. Early on the day she was to leave his lodge he had  gone far away to the chase without so much as looking at her and before he returned little Cry-in-the-Grass had gone with the white man who prom ised her a long ride and an armful of blue and red feathers.
 With his purchase McBee hastened to a point some miles down the river where he joined a man named Mccall. who was buying slaves for the French slave-market in New Orleans A trade was soon struck between the two men, which when ended, left the lit- tie Osage captive in possession of Me Call, and McBee three hundred dol lars better off for the business deal.
 To him this was rare good luck. He had paid for his investment with

 While he stood, his attention was attracted by a child's cry, which came from nearby brush
 Turning, he saw the child, who lift ed a tear-stained face and held up her hands
 Under the impenetrable calm of peace and the fury of war, the mighty Blackcoat had kind heart which the vail of the child touched.
 She, too, was his captive. Her father no doubt lay on the bloody field.
 The hard lines on his copper face softened and holding forth his hand, he said: Little in-the-Grass, come here" and when she came he lifted her in his arms.

"An eruption broke out on my aaughter's chest. I took her to a doctor, and he pronounced it to be eczema of very bad form. He treated her. but the disease spread to her back, and then the whole of her head was affected, and all her hair had to be cut off The pain she suffered was excru- ciating, and with that and the heat and tingling her life was almost un- bearable. Occasionally she was deliri- nus and she did not have proper hours sleep for many nights. The second doctor we tried afforded her just as little relief as the first Then I pur- chased Cuticura Soap Ointment, and Pills, and before the Ointment was three-quarters finished every trace of the disease was gone.

 The watermen received their reward and went their way. For time the brilliant young governor kept the child Then among visitors to the governors home came a Mir Finney. teacher in a newlyformed Mission school at Dwight, point about half way between the Post of Arkansas and the Fort of Smith. on the Ar. kansas River. To this teacher the governor gave the little Indian until such time as she should be claimed
 Weeks. months and years passed. but nobody claimed little Cry-in-the- Grass.

 But she never knew her parents. The warrior who had fallen in the de. file of the Ozarks under the tomahawk of the enraged Cherokee had long since been forgotten and his child in after years became the wife Of a white man, and if she ever saw the brave Blackcoat she did not recog nize in him her kind captor nor he in her his little Osage captive.
