-Four Eyes. The Indians named him
So He wore glasses and was short
sighted. He was a professor Of zoolo-
gy. My young men picked him up
strayed from an expedition on the up
per Porcupine.
He was intelligent, yes; but he was
also a fool. That was his weakness
straying. He knew geology, though,
and working in metals. Over on the
LuskWa, where there's coal, we have
several creditable hand FORCES he made
He repaired our guns and taught the
young men how. He died last year,
and we really missed him. Strayed-
that's how it happened-froze to death
within mile Of camp"
1t was on the same night that Snass
said to Smoke:
You'd better pick out a wife and
have a fire OF your own. You will be
more comfortable than with those
young bucks. The maidens' fires-a
sort of feast Of the virgins, you know
are not lighted until full summer and
the salmon, but l can give orders ear
lier if you say the word"
Smoke laughed and shook his head.
Remember" Snass concluded quiet
~, Anton is the only one that ever
got away. He was lucky, unusually
lucky"
Her father had a will OF iron, La
biskwee told Smoke. Everybody fear
ed him. He was terrible when angry.
There were the POrcupines. 1t was
through them and through the Lusk-
was that Snass traded his skins at
the posts and got his supplies OF am
munitiOn and tobacco. He was al
ways fair, but the chief OF the Por-
cupines began to cheat, and after Snass
had warned him twice he burned his
log village, and over a dozen of the
Porcupines were killed in the fight
But there was no more cheating
Once when she was little girl there
was one white man killed while try
ing to escape. No; her father did not
do it, but he gave the order to the
young men. No Indian ever disobeyed
her father.
And the more Smoke learned from
her the more the mystery of Snass
deepened.
And tell me if it is true" the girl
was saying, that there was a man
and 4 woman whose names were Paolo
and Francesca and who greatly loved
each other?"
Smoke nodded.
-Four Eyes told me all about it,
she beamed happily. And 50 he
didn't make it up, after all. Then
there is Tristan and Iseult. two IseuIts.
1t was very sad. But l should like to
love that way. DO all the young men
and women in the world do that?
They don't here They just get mar
ried. They don't seem to have time.
Il am English, and l will never
marry an indian. Would you? That
is why l have not lighted my maiden's
fire. Some OF the young men are
bothering father to make me do it.
Libash is one of them. He is a great
hunter. And Mahkook comes around
singing songs. He is funny. Tonight.
If you come by my tent after dark.
you will hear him singing out in the
cold. But father says | can do as |
please. and SO shall not light my fire.
You see when a girl makes up her
mind to get married that is the way
she lets young men know. And how

"Once we hit out we'll sure have

bachelors. An the bachelors told me.
Of course, that the maidens' fires is due
to be lighted tonight. That's all. Now
how do you like it,"
Il don't get your drift, Shorty
Don't eh? Why, it's plain open and
shut. They's a skirt after you, an that
skirt is goin' to light a fire, an that
skirts name is LabiskWee. Oh, I've
been watchin' her watch you when you

her fire. She said she wouldn't marry

Three ancient squaws had halted
midway between the bachelors camp
and the camp of McCan, and the old
est was declaiming in shrill falsetto:
"T.abiskwee, the daughter of Snass,
the Rainmaker. the great chief, lights
her first maidens' fire tonight. Maka,
the daughter Of Owits, the Wolf Run
ner"-
The recital ran through the names of
a dozen maidens, and then the three
heralds t0ttered on their way to make
announcement at the next fires.
The bachelors, who had sworn
youthful oaths to speak to no maiden,
were uninterested in the approaching
ceremony, and to show their diSdain
they made preparations for immediate
departure on a mission set them by
SnasS and upon which they had plan
ned to start the following morning.
Not satisfied with the old hunters eS-
Inmates of the caribou, SnaSS had de-
cided that the run was split The task
set the bachelors was to scout to the
north and west in quest OF the second
division of the great herd.
Smoke. troubled by Labiskwee's fire

talked with Shorty and with McCan.
