Late that afternoon they were all

And the spirits of all rose accordingly.

to spend the night. Beyond the rest
house were half a dozen scattered mud
huts. occupied by natives who pretend

Ahmed into n sense of security. But
at dawn. when they awoke cheerfully
to pick up the trail. they found their
horses and provisions gone.
The colonel. Bruce and Ahmed, still
armed. never having permitted the
rifles out OF their keeping. set out
grimly In pursuit Of the thieves. while
Kathlyn proceeded to forage on her
own initiative.
She came presently upon a magnifi-
cent ravine. half a mile In depth.
There was a broad ledge some fifteen
feet below. 1t was evidently used as
a goat path, for near at hand stood q

of investigation. she made prepara-

They were coming up the pathway
behind her. 1t would be simple enough
to descend; but how to get back to the
rest house? There was no time to
plan; she must act at once. She must
drop down to the ledge and trust to
her star.

With gesture he signified that it was
useless to him because he did not
know how to use it.
He took the rupees and kathlyn
took the rife. vaguely wondering how
it came into the possession of this
poverty stricken hillman. OF one
thing she was certain: 1t had become
his either through violence Of his own
or of others. She examined the breech
and found dead shell. which she cast
out. The rifle carried six cartridges.
and she loaded skilfully, much to the
astonishment of the hillman. Then
she swung the butt to her shoulder
and fired up at the ledge where the
panthers had last been seen.
The hillman cried out in alarm and
scuttled away to his hut. When he
peered forth again Kathlyn made a
friendly gesture and he approached
timidly. Once more she pointed to the
dust, at the picture of the rest house;

The Coronation of Winnie.

With the assistance of the shepherd

and safely. Once firmly on her feet,
she turned to thank the wild-eyed hill

back. for no woman of his kind had
ever looked like this. Kathlyn, with a
deal of foreboding, repeated the phrase
and asked the way back to the hun
ter's rest house. He shok his head;
he understood nothing.
But there is one language which is
universal the world over. and that is
sign language. Kathlyn quickly
stoosed and drew in the dust the shape
of &s rest house. Then she pointed
in the direction from whence she had
come. He smiled and nodded excited
Iy. He understood now. Next, being
unarmed, she felt the need OF some
sort of weapon. So she drew the shape
of a rifle in the dust, then produced
four rupees, all she had. The shep-

hut and returned with a rifle Of mod

in the air. he succeeded in making the
way back sufficiently clear to kathlyn,
who smiled. shouldered the rifle and
strobe confidently down the winding
path; but also she was alert and
watchful.
There was not a bit OF rust on the
rifle, and the fact that one bullet had
sped smoothly convinced her that the
weapon was servIceable. Some careful
hunter had once possessed 1t, for it
was abundantly oiled. To whom had
II belonged? II WIS of German make:
but that signified nothing. 1t might
have belonged to an Englishman. a
Frenchman, or a Russian: more likely
the latter. since this was one Of the
localities where they crossed and re-
crossed with their note books to be
utilized against that day when the
Bear dropped down from the north and
tackled the Lion.
Kathlyn had to go down to the very
bottom of the ravine. She must fol-
low the goat path. no matter where 1t
wound. for this ultimately would lead
her to the rest house. As she started
up the final incline. through the cedars
and pines. she heard the bark of the
wolf. the red wolf who hunted in
packs of twenty or thirty. in realty
far more menacing than a tiger or a
panther, since no hunter could kill
whole pack.
To this wolf. when hunting his kill.
the tiger gave wide berth; the bear
took to his cave. and all fleet footed
things of the jungles fed in panic.
Kathlyn climbed as rapidly as she
could She dared not mount tree. for
the red wolf would outwit her. She
must go on. The bark. or yelp, had
been n signal. but now there came to
her ears the long howl. She had
heard 1t often in the great forests at
home. 1t was the call of the pack that
there was to be a kill She might
shoot half a dozen of them, and the
living rend the dead. but the main
pack would follow on and overtake
her.
She swung on upward. catching a
sapling here, a limb there, pulling her
self over hard bits of going. Once she
turned and fired n chance shot in the
direction of the bowling. Far away
came the roar of one OF the mountain
lions; and the pack Of red wolves be-
came suddenly and magically silent.
Kathlyn made good use Of this inter
val. But presently the pack raised its
howl again, and she knew that the
grim struggle was about to begin.
She reached the door Of the rest
house just as the pack. large one.
came into view, heads down, tails

fire preparing the noon meal, seized
Kathlyn by the arm and hurried her

The wolves. arriving. flung themselves
against it savagely. But the door was
stout, and only a battering ram in hu-
man hands could have made 1t yield.
Unfortunately. there was no know

from their chase OF the horses, nor
how long the wolves would lay siege.

When you wake up with backache

medicine and dentistry believe the

Children Need Care.
DR.. Smith then took UP the necessi-
ty of good teeth in the mouths of the
school children. He stated that every
missing or decaying tooth in a child's
mouth makes that child's chances for
good health that much less. DR.. Smith
also told Of some of the things with
which he has come in contact.

conducted in Langdon, I had this i'm
pressed upon me, that although 1 had

Every School Child
Has an Average of
-Four Decayed Teeth

The members of the Commons club
were much impressed with an ad-
dress by DR.. Tom Smith of Langdon,
member of the state board of dental
examiners, on the need of proper care
of the teeth of school children--so
much so that committee was named
to work with the Fargo Dental asso-
citation, in making an effort for COM
pulsory oral hygiene in the schools.
The address of DR.. Smith contained
many statements that were nothing
short of startling, showing that proper
supervision of the teeth of the chill
dren of the public schools is not only
desirable but necessary. Some idea.
of the present condition was brought
out by DR.. Smith in a statement in
which he said that 1t has been con-
servatively estimated from statistics
gathered from all over the country
that each school child has, on an aver
age, a little more than four diseased
teeth that need filing.
''You all know DR.. William Isler,
professor emeritus of medicine in
oxford university" said DR.. Smith
during the course Of his address. "A
few years ago he made this statement
before the Royal Dental society in
London: You have but one gospel
to preach. Preach it in season and out
of season-early and late. That is the
gospel of the hygiene Of the mouth
the teeth and the throat. There is
nothing SO important to the public
health in the whole range of hygiene
"Osler, Mayo and Fletcher have
emphatically asserted that the mouth
is the portal Of entry Of most of the
germs that set up disease reactions in
the human body and preventative
medicine must begin with clean well
cared-for oral cavity.
''Dr. Hunter, an eminent physician
says that a diseased mouth is the most
prolific cause of much of the chronic
infections, diseased glands, intestinal
disorders, nephritis, arthritis, pulmon-
airy affections and heart LESSONS. This
claim is not original with DR.. Hunter.

DAILY FASHION HINTS
GIRLS DRESS.
By Anabel Worthington.

Daintiness and simplicity are the talk
ing points in the younger girls dress that
attract Just now there are many de-
signs excellently suited to contrasting ma
terials; especially may this be said of the
one illustrated in No. 1852, a fascinating
little model that may have either plated
or a gathered skirt and to be made with
your choice of sleeve length. In the shoul-
der edge of each front two tucks are made.
Trey shape the upper part of a blouse
that Is full below and which fastens with
neat small buttons that are rather close
together. The dainty point collar" finish
ing the neck is of contrasting goods and
has an edging to make 1t richer. A belt
Of the material marks the joining Of the
waist to a skirt with fourteen plaits.
Marking the hem line, a broad strip or
band of the material goes round the skirt
and proves an attractive trimming idea.
Just above it another band, in similar
width, shares the honors for adding charm
to the dress. A cuff in fanciful outline
and in contrasting goods finishes the short
sleeve.
In making the skirt gathered" en-
broidered flouncing will serve beautifully.
The features of interest in the dress with
the plated skirt, with the exception Of the
belt, are to be found in the model with the
gathered skirt.
