air outside OF the cave were all he
needed to revive him. physically. But
TO his surprise they did not suffice to
rid him OF the feeling which he re.
garaed as superstitious. namely, the
impulse to fy back to Jeanne as fast
as wing could carry him.
he had every reason TO believe that
sne was safe, he told himself. She
was armed with heavy revolver. was
sood shot and had plenty of nerve
one was In a place. the only avenue
oi access to which would give her
tremendous advantage over any in
vader. So that, even supposinr the
worst--supposing that Roscoe's Alb.
sence were taken to mean that he had
gone to make an attack on the nilot
mouse, there could hardly be doubt
that Jeanne would kill him.
his reasoning was all based on the
assumption that the pilot house was
inaccessible to any wingless creature
except by way of the ice chimney.
Even now, when his fear for the girl
was amounting to superstition of AL
most irresistible intensity, it did not
occur to him to question that.
He steadied himself as best he could
and crouched down in the shelter of
the big rock to await Roscoe's return.
He had hardly settled himself here
when he saw something that made
him shake his head impatiently. and
swear little. 1t was the winking
glow Of an aurora borealis, off to the
north
Cayley gazed at the spectacle unwill-
ingly, but still he gazed And, some
how, though he fought the feeling des-
perately, 1t began to assume a per
sonal significance to him--a signifi-
canoe of mockery. The whole sky was
quivering with vast silent laughter.
Was 1t because he, with his fancied
cleverness and daring In finding Ros-
GOES lair and waiting for his return to
1t, was really doing precisely the thing
that Roscoe would have had him do?
Were those sky-witches laughing over
what was happening up at the pilot
house while he sat here and waited
No intelligence, no sane power OF
consecutive reasoning can resist this
sort Of thing definitely, and at last
Cayley's power of resistance came to
an end.
He sprang to his feet. at, last, drip
ping with sweat, in spite of the cold,
caught up his bundled wings, unfurled
them and took the air with rush.
Once he had jerked himself aloft to a
height little above the crest Of the
cliff, 1t was hardly more than a mat
ter of seconds before he came oppo-
site the dome-like mound of snow
which covered the pilot house.
There was no light shining out of
the tunnel entrance. But that was
as he had expected it to be. He made
1t out easily enough; and in another
moment had alighted there.
"Jeanne!" he called
1t was not the exertion of flight, but
a sudden intolerable apprehension that
made him breathless. The word had
Hditeu d niue III Ills tuiodt. hAdSl-
ly as he uttered 1t he saw down the
tunnel, and in the pilot house itself,
tiny spark Of fire, and heard the
click of steel against flint.
What the spark Illuminated were
the fingers of gigantic, hairy hand.
"Jeanne!" he called again, and now
his voice came clear enough. Wait a
minute and I'll make light for you"

M had not his rife vita him: tne sky-
man soaring slowly and not very high
presented a mark he could almost GER
tainly have hit
1t was surprising. OF course. to see
him alive, but Roscoe. In his present
state. never thought OF looking TO SUI
pernstural means to account for the
fact. Indeed, be was hardly more than
a moment In approximating the true ex.

he knew nothing. and easily acces-

Skirting the cliff and keeping well
in Its shadow. he made his way with
his last load, back to his cave Here
he spent a few minutes cleaning his
rife, making sure that the mechanism
of the breech was working perfectly.
and filling its magazine fun OF car
tridges.
The moon was Just setting, but the
sky was still bright enough to give
him good hope OF making out Cay
ley's winged figure against It.
Roscoe squatted down In the lee OF
the great hummock Of ice. surveyed
the heavens with keen, practised eyes,
muDching on strip of dried walrus-
meat which he had brought with him
and waited very contentedly.

fore the moon twilight had gone out
of the sky he saw In It silhouetted
against it, the sight from which
he had once fed with such mad
terror-~the broad expanse of the sky
mans wings.
Instead az fling. he scrambled up to
the top Of lAe nearest ice hummock
and from there watched Cayley' flight
to his landing place.
He laughed aloud when he saw that
it was not in the side OF the cliff, as he
had feared. but quite at the crest OF 1t
where 1t was as accessible to man
who could climb bit as to one with
wings.
He did not move from his attitude
of strained attention, on the summit
of little ice hill. until he saw faint
glow of golden light diffusing itself
from the moath Of the tunnel that led
to the pilot house Then, with that
queer shutting gait of his. which was
neither walk nor run, he began max.
ing his way inshore. over the ice, to
ward the foot of the cliff
Cayley's tunnel was not at right
angles to the crest, but bore of dag
onally westward. Roscoe had noted
this fact, and he figured 1t out from
the top of the promontory, which
formed the western boundary of their
strip of beach. he should be able to
command view straight into the tun
mel. Also, there was at this point q

but Roscoe would have called 1t a
trail, but that was the way 1t existed
In his mind.
His calculation of the angle of the
tunnel proved to be correct, for from
His neSiy-gained coign of vantage, he
could see straight into the pilot house
and make out clearly enough two fig
ures there.
Once more he was tempted to fire

tation had not the light been put out
before he had fairly got his eyes ad-
justed to the distance.
1t Is to be remembered, always. that
he knew nothing whatever OF the Ice
chimney, and suspected no connection
between the hut and the pilot house,
except by the air. For anything he
knew to the contrary. Jeanne might
be able to fly, as well as Philip, or
he to carry her with him upon his
flights. Consequently, he did not sus-
pect, when he saw Cayley take to
fight again, that this action had any
reference to himself; nor that the
woman who was left alone would be
on her guard against him.
The moment he glimpsed the
shadow of Cayley's wings against the
stars he began making his way, eau
tiously, over the crusted snow. toward
the pilot house. The door was closed,
but there was a light shining out
through crack beneath it 1t was a
glass door, but something had been
hung over the glass so that he could
not see into the interior.
Both Jeanne and Philip had made
the mistake Of assuming that the only
way of access to the pilot house. ex-
cept to Philip with his wings, was the
ice chimney. It WAS a natural mis-
take enough-one that almost any out
a practised mountaineer would have
made.
Furthermore they had no reason
either of them--for anticipating an at
tack upon the pilot house while Phihp
was gone. They had been living here.
now for weeks, in unbroken security.
So, though the girl obeyed Philips In
junction literally and scrupulously,
she did It without the slightest sense
OF personal danger, and indeed she
would hardly have had room for such

The Maine Election.

Next Monday Maine will have a
special general election to amend the
State Constitution The object of the
election is to rmove the prohibition
clause from the basic law of the
State. The campaign is hot, as might
be expected.
Maine was the pioneer in the pro-
hibition movement, and for more than
half a century the liquor traffic there
has been clandestine. In later years
the officials paid little or no atten-
tion to the traffic, and elections for
several years have been embittered
by the liquor question.
Seven years ago the Democrats won
on the prohibition side, and the Repub-
lican Office holders were turned out.
The Democrats had State commits
sion appointed to enforce the prohi-
bition law, with view to making it
unpopular. The advocates of license
saw an opportunity and next weeks
election is the outcome.
