There was much debate and discus
sion in the council, but in the end 1T
was decided to welcome the strangers
and find room for them in the numer-
Gus dwellings in the sides of the cliffs.
The decision was brought to the camp
In the valley by the old men.
Since you are of our blood and our
race they said to Nam and his fol-
lowers. I'VE have made up our minds
to treat you as our guests. There
fore we extend to you the hand of
friendship. We will give you food and
shelter and in all things you shall
share equally with US. But first you
must agree to one condition.
What is that condition.. Nam asked
You must know" they replied. that
the reason why we have made our
homes in the side of the cliffs and upon
the tops of rocky SUBMITS which can
be reached only by difficult paths is
that we are greatly troubled each win
ter by the wolf packs which seek this
country from the northern wilderness
When the deep SHOWS fall in their for
ests they come southwark in search
of bison. They are very large and saw
age. and they would destroy US IL ii
were possible for them to reach our
abodes. You must promise to aid us
in our war with them"
The San Francisco call., 1909-01-16

That we will promise to do. Nam
replied, 'for we could not bear to see
our cousins, who have received US with
so much kindness, suffer from the at
tacks of these beasts
So it was arranged that the wander
ers should pass the winter among the
cliffs, and 1t was further agreed that
in case the red men should make their
appearance all would join together IN
fighting them. Room was found for
the snake people in the cliff dwellings
and wherever necessary the houses
were enlarged by cutting into the rock
with axes of flint and building new
walls. The mound builders soon grew
accustomed TO their quarters and they
settled down in much contentment.
There was much to do besides the
building of new houses. Some of the
men went on hunting expeditions.
others f1shed in the rivers and others
stored the beans and grain of their
crops in chambers in the sides OF the
cliffs which had been prepared for the
purpose. The meat brought in by the
hunters was cut into strips and dried
so that it would keep through the win
ter and the fish were prepared in sim
liar manner. In these occupations the
time passed quickly until the snow be-
gan to fall upon the mountain tops
Watchers were posted on all high
places above the valleys to give warning
of the approach of any danger. 1t was
their duty in particular to give notice of
the wolf packs soon as they found
signs that the animals were coming. One
day the message was sent through the
valley in which the mound builders had
made their home that the wolves had
been seen, and at once all the inhabi-
tants climbed to their houses and hid
themselves. 1t happened that ItaI was
on the other side of the valley when the
news came. He and Nam lived to-
gether in a house that had been set
apart for them, and he was anxious to
return while he could The cliff dwell
ers warned him that it would be dan
gerous for him to venture upon the
level ground at such time, but he only
laughed at them and insisted that he
could cross without any trouble But
when he was in the middle of the
stream at a shallow place which was
used as a ford long howl went echo
ing down the valley. The first OF the
wolves had seen him.
Ital knew that others could not be
far behind and that he must find shell

torn to pieces The wolf sprang for

wolves that are to be found nowadays.

made ready his bow and sent an ar
row at the brute that struck him in the
side and stuck there, causing him to
yelp and snarl with rage. But when

ItaI sought to shoot second arrow
the string of his bow broke and he was
left defensefess.
Luckily Nam had been watching Tor
him from the cliff. and when he saw
the plight his friend was In he ran
for his own bow and arrows
I'm coming" he cried to Ital, and
Immediately he began to climb down
the steps in the face OF the elm whlch
led to their house
ItaI meanwhile had picked up
Jagged stone from the bed or the
stream and was advancing upon the
wolf Nam came forward as fast as
he could. As soon as the wor saw
him he turned from Ital, who was
still in the water. and dashed toward
him. Nam put one knee on the ground
and drew back the string of his bow

but he did not have Itafs strength ana
his arrow made only slight wound
But it caused the wolf to halt for

the wolf in the middle of the back and
broke the bone so that his hind legs
were useless. The beast fell and rolled
over and over. snarling and snapping

Nam did not waste a moment. but ran
to the cliff and began the ascent.

wolf pack came sweeping down the
valley. attracted by the bowling or

houses. The people had only their bows
and arrows and piles OF stones. which
they rolled down on them. and. OF
course, these did not do them much
damage.
Thus the wolf siege began. and II
lasted all winter. While the wolves
remained IL was not safe for any OF
the cliff dwellers to venture out of
their houses, and many OF them who
did so were destroyed by the ravenOus
pack. for the cunning beasts lay in
wait for them in places OF conceal
ment and surprised them when they
could not defend themselves Their

great cracks and huge crevices, large
enough to hold entire houses, and in
these creyices the cousins had built
their dwellings of stone. They were
high up in the walls of rock and could
be reached only by ladders or by
climbing by means of holes cut in the
rock for hands and feet
Looking down from the windows OF
their houses the cousins saw the peace
sign of the wise men, and after a time
their most aged chiefs ventured down
the ladders to hold a parley
'of what people are your" they
asked.
I'VE are snake people," Nam replied.
What people are your"
we are men of the bear" replied the
cousins.
Then we are of the same blood and
the same race" Nam said. I'VE have
come far in search Of you, for the red
men Of the north are preparing TO at
tack us, and it is well that we should
all be together so that we may better
resist them"
These words caused alarm among the
cliff dwellers and they were eager to
know all that was to be told regarding
the red men of the north. They asked
many questions concerning them and
Nam soon saw that they were even
more unwarlike and timorous than the
mound builders. He and the wise men
told of the great invasion of their coun-
try and of their long flight across the
plains. When they had finished their
story the cliff dwellers told them to
make their camp in the valley and sent
them abundance of food, both grain and
dried flesh; but they themselves with
drew to their houses and summoned the
heads of all their families to a confer
ence a s TO what they had better do to
meet the danger that threatened them
In the bottom of the valley, beside the
river, which was bordered on either
side by cultivated fields from which the
harvest had been removed, the mound
builders made a comfortable camp
These fields were very narrow, lying at
the foot of the walls of rock which shut

Of the morning bright and fair.
See the kitten, how she starts.
Crouches, stretches, paws and darts;

Gracefully she plays her part;

Dirty Jim

There was one little Jim.
'Tis reported of him,
And must be to his lasting disgrace,
That he never was seen
With hands at all clean.
Nor yet ever clean was his face.
His friends were much hurt
To see so much dirt
And often they made him quite cIeal
But all was in vain.
He was dirty again
And not at all dt to be seen.
When TO wash he was sent.
He reluctantly went
With water to splash himself DER,
But he seldom was seen
To have washed himself clean,
And oft he looked worse than before
The idle and bad.
Like this little lad.
May be dirty and black, to be sure;
But good boys are seen
To be decent and clean.
Although they are ever so poor.

1T HAS been told how Nam and Ital,
after they left their homes beneath
the Mountain Of Storms, which we
call Storm King, were received by
the snake people as descendants of the
serpent and chosen by them to be their
leaders when they were driven from
the country OF the mounds by the fierce
red men from the north. They were
weary and travel worn enough when
they reached at last the land of the
painted cliffs after their long and
perilous journey across the great plains
and met their cousins, the cliff dwell
ers, in search Of whom they had come.
They we're overjoyed to find them
selves once more among men Of their
own race. and the cliff dwellers re-
ceived them Hospitality when they
learned who they really were But at
first the cliff dWellers were inclined to
regard them with suspicion. seeing
them come IN such numbers, so Nam
summoned the wise men and went for

remain behind.

Unexpected Appreciation

An odd anecdote is told about the
"Reverie and Caprice for Violin and
Orchestra" by Berlioz. a composition
which partakes largely Of the remarka-
Bile character that belongs TO most Of
the works of that famous French mu-
sician. 1t was performed at Leipzig
by one of the greatest of German vio-
linists. and Berlioz and Mendelssohn
were both present.
After the piece was ended. amid the
most enthusiastic applause, the violin
ist turned to Mendelssohn and whis
pered, II am glad enough 1 have got
through. it, for I never had such task
in my life. l have not the remotest
idea what I have been playing or wi L
the piece can be about,
Scarcely were the words out OF the
bewildered fiddler's mouth when Berlioz
exclaimed to Mendelssohn. Never have
1 heard my composition so divinely
rendered. Never have I heard an artist
who has so completely caught my
meaning and so wonderfully inter-
preted it,"
