Ethel Harbi7 was her ablest ally
This rather lawless young person laid
aside the hearts with which she was
toying and bent her every endeavor to
the cause of romance. 1t was not long
before every young officer in the city
was more or less interested in the well
fare of Graydon Bansemer. She threw
n fine cloak of mystery about the mil
1ionaire's son" and the great devotion
of her cousin. The youth of the army
followed Ethel to and from the hospi-
tai for days and days. Without Ethel
it is quite doubtful If anybody could
have known what monstrous impor-

At the end of fortnight he was able
to sit up and converse with his nurse
and the occasional Ethel Dr. G., chief
of the ward, remarked to Colonel Har-

KEEN EYE SAVES
LIFE OF TRAPPER
WOOOMAN SEES DEAD ANIMALS
IN TRAPS AND KNOWS SOME
THING is WRONG.
FINDS MAN ILL AND STARVING
Peter Lovejoy Comes on Little Cabin
in Ravine, After TWO Days Search,
Where FeIlownan Is Bedrid
den with rheumatism.

Woonga, Ont.-That the simple lie
IS not always simple or filled with I'M
alleged Joy was brought to the atten'
ton of Woonga villagers when they
were called upon to go to Big Cat lake
and bring Eugene Hardy, a trapper,
who for nearly three weeks had been
slowly starving because bedridden
with an attack Of rheumatism. That
the man is alive to-day is considered
remarkable.
Hardy, who, In spite Of his name,
IS anything but robust, was found
by fellow trapper through the
merest chance, and was then in such
wasted condition that 1t was impos-
sible to take him out of the woods
for six days. BY administering coarse
broths made from venison and part
ridge bones, he finally strengthened
his charge enough to move him over
20 miles OF trails on a litter. From
that point the trip to civilization was
made by OK and horse teams.
Peter Loyejoy, the woodsman who
fortunately came upon Hardy. was
prospecting for a new camp when he
discovered traps with dead animals
in them. His experienced eye told
| him that the animals had been dead
from one to two weeks and they had
probably been caught some days be-
fore death occurred The latter fact
was pretty conclusively established
| by the wasted condition Of the bodies
Lovejoy Immediately deducted that
| the owner of the traps had met with
mishap and he set out to find him.
A. the end Of two days search he
heard a couple OF wolves bowling in a
sheltered rayine and a little later he
| came upon a small cabin built against
q ledge of rock. There was no indiCa-
! ton OF human life about the place.
| Snow, untracked save by wolves and
other marauders, covered the ground,
but a pail turned upside down, showed
that someone had placed it by the
door long after the first snow had
fallen
When Loyejoy opened the door,
which had been securely caught with
drop latch, Hardy was seen lying on
his bunk apparently dead. He was
white, emaciated and still. The cabin
itself was in disorder. Most of the
rough furniture had been used for
fuel and broken tables and chairs
lay strewn near the fireplace. Some
potatoe skins and strips of deer hide

shooting pains in legs and arms. and
1t was with great difficulty that hs
could prepare his breakfast. he got
through with the ordeal after intenee
suffering and managed to gather 4 lit.
tie wood.
Work was out Of the question and
Hardy remained In his bunk for three
DAYS, getting out only to feed himself
and keep the fire burning. All thiI
time the fever kept up and the sup
ply of wood and provisions dlmln-
ished To make matters worse wolves

about the cabin both day and night.

How the time passed after the hrSt
week he scarcely remembered, He
said that when the wood gave out en-
tirely he managed to break up some
OF the furniture by rolling heavy
rock I'D an inclined board and letting
it fall on tables and chairs. With tina
food gone he resorted to unground
grain, tallow candles and strips OF
deer hide boiled in snow water.
! Lovejoy saw he could not take tha
man out alone, so after getting SUP
plies from his own camp, nine miles
distant, he came here for help. Vel
