CHAPTER ".

This time the trail was easier. It
was better packed. and they were not
carrying mail against time. At Forty
Mile they laid over two days for the
sake of the dogs, and at Sixty Mile
Daylights team was left with the
trader. Unlike Daylight, after the
terrible run from Selkirk to Circle
City, they had been unable to recup-
crate on the back trail. So the four
men pulled on from Sixty Mile with
a fresh team of dogs on Daylight's
sled. The following night they
camped in the cluster of islands at
the mouth of the Stewart. Daylight
talked town sites, and. though the
others laughed at him. he staked the
whole maze of high. wooded island.
"Just supposing the big strike does
come on the Stewart" he argued.
"Mebbe you-all II be in on 1t, and then
again mebbe you-all won't. But sure
will. You-all d better reconsider and

beginning, and in an incredibly short
time it gave me such strength that I
was able to leave my bed and enjoy
my three good meals day. In 2
months my weight increased from 95
to 113 pounds, my nerves had steadied
down and l felt ready for anything.
My neighbors were amazed to see me
gain so rapidly, and still more SO
when they heard that Grape-Nuts
alone had brought the change.

STARTS HOME,
IS GhUGHT +
in BLIZZARD

"A letter received by MIR. and
Mrs. Erred Kutchin from Liscomb
Texas, from the parties their son,
Leslie, has been working for the
past month, stated that Leslie
had had a settlement with them
on Saturday night, November "a.
and told them he was very anx-
ious to get home. It began snow
ing on Sunday night and Leslie
left Monday morning early to
walk to the nearest railway sta
ton. On Tuesday they found
the body frozen solid, about four
miles from the place he had start
ed from. They suppose the biz
zard struck him and he became
confused and wandered around
and around until he gave up the
struggle. The letter stated that
Leslie had proven a good boy and
a fine hand, a:.II 1as quite anx-
ious to get home. This death has
been a heavy blow to the father
and mother, who were hourly
expecting their son to walk in
home. And they were building
great hopes and plans based on
Leslie coming home, and such a
home coming as it was! The
bravest and strongest man in the
crowd was forced to tears, to
think of such fate to overtake
a loved one as he starts home
after so many months. He had
saved up his earnings to bring
home, which were found in his
pockets and placed in the bank
at that place. Mr.. and Mrs.
Kutchin have the sympathy Of
all the community as was shown
by the number who attended the
funeral and Whe had come to the
home at all hours during the
week of waiting and suspense.
Every service was offered bv

Mrs, Kutchin were much touched
by the goodness of the entire
community, everyone doing all
in their power to show their re-
