into which unkind fate had thrown
him, and coming 20 conclusion.
When his sparing meal was finished
he drew his shoulders up with an
inimitab1e little shrug of rare elegance
and began:
"Monsieur-ah-par I do not
know your name?"
Kendall. Andy Kendall" the min
er rejoined, staring at his strange in
terlocutor with his open mouth pur-
sed into something approaching a
whistle of establishment, while his
gray eyes twinkled humorously.
"Ah, merci! Monsieur Andahken-
dial, am now sans famille. l must

here his eyes suddenly filed with
moisture at abruptly recalled memories
of home-"the good cure said to me

my leetle son, remember Zis: You

your life eet ees a long journay,
Sometimes the way ees hard; but,

He paused and bravely blinked away
the gathered tears, while the miner
coughed loudly to conceal his own
strangely intermingled desires to
laugh and cry
YES" he questioned, "and what
now?"
Il am without family and must pay
as I co." was the response in the
same precise English.
Don't you worry about that! You
are goin' to live with me. You don't
have to work. You're to be my son,
and
But eet ees not my fathaire you
are," interrupted his guest, with a
slight tone Of wistfulness, "and-and
l must pay as I CO.
Plainly Jean was declining adoption,
although it appeared attractive. Big
Andy made no reply but ate steadily,
lifting his eyes between mouthfuls to
stare in kindly fashion at the boy
who gave an equally frank and I'M
abashed inspection to his host.
Don't you like me, young feller?"
Kendall asked as he folded his arms
and leaned dangerously far back on
the rear legs of his wooden stool.

across and drawing the general to
him.
What is it, old MANI" he said in
voice of unaccustomed softness,
fancying that desolation and home
sickness we're torturmg his protege.
Perhaps they did hare something to
do with it. The littls hands slid slow
ly up around his neck, and he felt his
heart beat with sheer delight, but he
did not speak because he knew it
was not the way. He bided his time
until the general, sitting his sobs,
vouchsafed an explanation.
you will me no longer like, Mon
sieur Andahkendal, because, because
I went to what you call pound my
dam ear"
And the big miner, shuddering with
suppressed laughter, assured him with
many caresses that sleep was no
crime, but was considered water car
rier's inalienable prerosative and, in
deed, part Of his bsunden duty.
Andy Kendall underwent subtle
change after the arrival Of the general.
Before then he had gambled as did all
men of Holcomb. Before then he had
been known to driHk when in the
mood, and had blitheEy danced when
so inclined but now the mellow
green Of the layout and he were
strangers, he seemed immune from
drouth, and danced no more.
One speech Of his, made but day
or two after the exile's arrival, was
long remembered. 1t was when some
Of the women of the dance hall ven
tured to protest against his laying full
claim to the boy whom many would
have taken to satisfy the ever hun
cry mother love. They unwtsely asked,
with reckless taunts and illtuned
jeers, by what right he had taken the
lad
"You want to know Why l took
him?" he snarled, backing ZIP against
the log wall and defiant1y staring
around. 81 did it because I'm filter
to care for him than any Of you, or
any man in this camp"
IT took him, too, because wanted
him, and If there's any man here
wants to jump my claim let him speak

JOB? Job? What ees you would

sieur?"
Its a-er-a situation. Employ
ment."
"Ah! Tries bien!"
"And I'll pay you an ounce a month,
and you're to live here with me-" He
fathomed the look of perplexity and
gold is-let me see-I think it's about
hundred francs of your money, IN
less I've clean forgot all learned
when I was kid"
The boys eyes slowly opened until
they were very big and round, and
then relaxed into such a smile of de-
light that they were almost shut. 1t
was fortune, and the engagement
was closed. And thus a water car
rier was installed into the workaday
life Of the Jumper mine, which at first
created much amusement for the
AOu6A OuI 6OOO ACOlCC 6aA6 WAO
worked it.
True, the creek, clear and limpid
and cool, ran directly through the
ground and nearly always within
reach; but when the situation was
explained the men went athirst rath-
er than cause grief and disappoint-
ment by declining to drink from the
bright tin pail. If they resorted to
the brook it was surreptitiously, and
no one could ever forget the look of
anguish in the carriers eyes when he
discovered this breach of etiquette;
but he said nothing, for he was en-
tirely undemonstrative and all of life
with him was very serious business,
In time he became "the general
by common consent.
Once the generals Industrious legs
grew tired and he succumbed to the
inviting shade Of a big fir tree which
treacherously sang a song Of the free
winds and lulled him to sleep. 1t was
hard to forgive himself for this lapse,
and that night big Andy Kendall, smo-
king his pipe and reading one Of those
rare treasures, a month-old newspaper,
heard few small, whimpering sobs
from his helpers bunk.
He went over and knelt beside it,
tenderly reaching long muscular arm

with exactitude made parallel rows
with his knife, fork and spoon across
his plate, daintily wiped his fingers
handkerchief and folded and placed it
in his pocket before answering:
Yes, Monsieur Andahkendal, lax
you vaire much. You are vaire big
and kind; but-you eat the food wiz
your knife"
There were great condemnation and
reproof in his tone. Andy's arms un-
folded and his chair resumed it's nor
NAL position on the floor while he
gaped in open-mouthed establishment
at his monitor. Then with shrek
of amusement he doubled over the Ia
Bile. The boy, with the utmost gray
ity as though fascinated by the widely
open mouth and firm, white teeth,
scrutinized him until he gained self
control and assumed a look of con-
triton.
do you think, General Lafayette"
he said, that if I were to stop knife
gobbling and try to be civilized
me as a father?"
And Jean Guillot, after inquiring the
exact definition of the unknown term,
agreed that he would consider such
a possibility, but politely added that
he thought it might take some time
to reach conclusion. A strange dor
mant wisdom of fatherhood must have
taught the big miner the right road
to the little foreign heart which held
him aloof and refused to enshrine him
in a dead mans place, for from that
minute he no longer urged the plan
of adoption but treated with Jean Gull
lot on a different basis. He negoti-
ated with him as a man, only the
twinkling of his eyes betraying his
discovery of humor In the situation.
I'm a trife short Of help" he an
nounced. Now, you say you want to
pay as you go. Well, I'll give you
chance: I'll hire you.
Jean Guillot became all attention.
and with an unsmiling face watched
him.

flames.
For the first time since they had
met each other the boy crept over to
him unasked, forced himself on the
waiting knee and clasped his arms
around the weather-beaten neck.
