tIdu lniS WOman-WnOm he naQ thought
was her mother-had been searching for
man who bore her own name, O'Doone.
The girl was plainly expecting him to
say something, and he reiterated this fact
that the woman in the coach was very
anxious to find man whose name was
O'Doone, and that it was quite reasonable
to suppose that her name was O'Doone,
especially as she had with her this picture
of a girl whose name was also O'Doone.
1t seemed to him powerful and utterly
convincing argument-for something. 1t
was combination of facts difficult to get
away from without certain conclusions.
But this girl, who was so near to him that
he could almost feel her breath, did not
appear to comprehend fully their signifi-
cance. She was looking at him with wide
open, wondering eyes, and when he had
finished she said again:
"My mother is dead. And my father
is dead, too. And my aunt is dead-up
at the Nest. There isn't any one left but
my Uncle Hauck, and he is brute. And
Brokaw. He is a bigger brute. 1t was he

to kill him-to kill any one that touches
me when l scream"
SHE did not look at the picture

him, her eyes darkening.
"He caught me there near the creek.

take it. He wanted me to take off my"
A flood of blood rushed into her face.
Il wouldn't be afraid now-not of him
alone, she cried. Il would scream and
fight, and Tara would tear him into
pieces. Oh, Tara knows how to do it

"He compelled you to let him take the
picture" urged David gently. "And-'

girl?"
David took her hand. 1t lay warm and

A shudder went through her.

Nest is a terrible place. Hauck is terrible.
Brokaw is terrible. And Hauck sent
away somewhere up there'-she pointed
northward- -"for Brokaw. He said-I
belonged to Brokaw. What did he mean?"
She turned so that she could look
straight into David's eyes. She saw the
slow, gathering tenseness in his face as
he looked for moment away from her.
"What did Hauck mean?" she per-
sisted. "Why do belong to Brokaw-
that great red brute?'
His voice was gentle but the hard lines
did not leave his face.
"How old are you, Marge?' he asked.
Seventeen" she said.
"And m--thirty-seven!" He turned
to smile at her. as this man Brokaw at

None will tell me. Hauck says it is for
another bear that Brokaw is bringing
down from the Yukon. But know they
are lying. 1t is for Tara"
Suddenly her fingers clutched tightly at
his hand, and for the first time he saw
under her long, shimmering lashes the
darkening fire of a real terror.
"Why do l belong to Brokaw?" she
asked again, little tremble in her voice.
"Why did Hauck say that? Can-can
man-buy girl?"
The nails of her slender fingers were
pricking his flesh. David did not feel
their hurt.
what do you mean?" he asked, trying
to keep his voice steady. "Did that man
-Hauck-sell you?"
He looked away from her as he asked
the question. He was afraid, just then,
that something was in his face that he
did not want her to see. He began to
understand.
I-don't-know," he heard her say,
close to his shoulder. at was night be-
fore last l heard them quarreling, and
l crept to door that was a little open,
and looked in. Brokaw had given my
uncle bag of gold, little sack such as
the miners bring down with them, and as
l looked he gave him another little sack,
and heard him swear at my uncle and
say: That's more than she is worth, but
I'll give in. Now she's mine!' Tara and
ran away that night
"Why do you have that thought-that
he was buying you?" David asked. @Has

A SECOND time fury of blood leaped
into her face and her eyes blazed.
"He-that red brute-caught me in the
dark two weeks ago. and held me there
and kissed mel" she fairly painted at him,
springing to her feet and standing before
him. al would have screamed, but it was
in the house, and Tara couldn't come to
bent my head back until it hurt. He tried
it again the day he gave my uncle the
gold; but struck him with stick, and
ran away. Oh, hate him!"
Il understand" said David, rising and
smiling at her confidently, while in his
veins his blood was running like little
streams of fire. @Don't you believe now
all that I've told you about the picture?
How it tried SO hard to talk to me, and
tell me to hurry? 1t got me here just
about in time, didn't it? You're little
brick, Marge-you and your bear!"
1t was the first time he had thought of
the bear since Marge had detached her.
self from the big beast to come to him,
and as he looked in its direction he gave
a startled exclamation.
Baree and the grizzly had been meas
uring each other for some time. To Baree
this was the most amazing experience in
all his life, and, fattened out between
two rocks, he was at loss to comprehend
why his master did not either run or shoot.
: He wanted to jump out, if his master
showed fight, and leap straight at that
ugly monster, or he wanted to run away
as fast as his legs would carry him. He
was shivering in indecision, waiting
signal from David to do either one or the
other And Tara was now moving slowly
toward the dog. His huge head was hung
low, swinging slightly from side to side in
most terrifying way. At David's cry
the girl had turned, and he was amazed
to hear her laughter.

ders, and drew him down with her close
in front Of Tara's big head and round,
emotionless eyes. For thrilling mo-
ment she pressed her face against his,
looking all the time straight at Tara and
talking to him steadily.
David did not fully sense what she was
saying, except that in general way she
was telling Tara that he must never hurt
this man, no matter what happened. The
girls hand touched his cheek, warm and
caressing. He made no movement of his
own, except to rise rigidly when she un-
clasped her arms.
"There-he won't hurt you now!' she
exclaimed.
HER cheeks We're flushed, but not with
: embarrassment Then he saw sud-
den changing expression come into her
face. There was something pathetic about
it. She was looking at his pack.

Il fastened our bundle on Tara's back,

steep that in places l had to catch hold
of Tara and let him drag me up"
In another moment David was at his
pack, opening it and tossing things to
right and left on the white sand, and the
girl watched him, her eyes bright with
anticipation.
Coffee, bacon, bannock- and pota-
toes" he said
"Potatoesl' cried the girl.
"Yes-dehydrated. See? 1t looks like
rice. One pound of this equals fourteen
pounds of fresh potatoes. And you can't
tell the difference when it's cooked right.
Now for fire."
She was darting this way and shat, col
lecting small dry sticks in the sand, before
he was on his feet. He could not resist
standing for moment and watching her.
Her movements, even in her quick and
eager quest of fuel, were the most grace
full he had ever seen in human being.
He went down to the stream for water,
and in the few moments that he was gone
his mind worked swiftly. He believed
that he understood perhaps even more
than the girl herself. There was some
thing about her that was so sweetly child
ish-in spite Of her age and her height
and her amazing prettlness that was not
all child's prettiness-that he could not
feel that she had realized fully the peril
from which she was fleeing when he found
her.
CHE had built little pile Of sticks and
dry moss, ready for the touch of q
match, when he returned. Tara had
stretched himself out lazily in the sun,
and Baree was still between the two rocks,
cycling him watchfully. Before David
lighted the fire he spread his one light
blanket out on the sand and made the
girl sit down. She was close to him, and
her eyes did not leave his face for an in-
slant.
He asked her a great many questions
while he prepared their dinner. The
Nest, he learned, was free trading place,
and Hauck was its proprietor. He was
surprised when he learned that he was not
on Firepan Creek, after ALL The Firepan
was over the range, and there We're good

they were miners, for that was what Hauck

Dress

a ribbon-ruche is a pretty feature
of the taffeta dance frock illustrated
in the first figure of this letter. It
is fashioned of transparent metallic
ribbon, banded through the center
with strip of the narrow velvet rib
bon which trims the skirt. Wide
satin ribbon forms the underbodice,
and a ribbon rose adds a pretty
touch to the completed dress.
Another effective use of wide tat
feta ribbon is shown in the second
figure; the lower edge of the met
skirt is banded with the ribbon and
hanging, panel-fashion from the
shirred waistline, is a single strip,
slightly gathered at the top.
Ribbon is one of the simplest. most
easily applied. and most economical
of all trimmings. 1t requires NO
hemming or finishing, and may be
pleated, gathered, twisted, and
draped in every imaginable way.

LAST EAGLE DANCE WILL BE
 GIVEN SATURDAY

The final dance of the series of four balls which the Eagles gave for the benefit of the building fund, will be given at the Eagle hall Saturday night.
 These dances have been patronized more generously than had been an ticipated by the committee in charge, and it is expected that at the last dance of the series an unusually large number will be in attendance.
 Aside from the enjoyable time which all the dancers have at these hops, the object for which they are given, in order to get money for the new hall, has brought many people to the dances who otherwise would not at tend.

SHELL GRENADE IS INVENTED
 BY A JUNEAU MAN

JUNEAU. Jefferson Bowling, a machine man of the Perseverance mine, has perfected an invention, the shell grenade. He has already applied for patents in the United States and all foreign countries. The shell will be soon in use in the European war, 1t is stated.
 A close study of the present Euro pean war shows that deadlock has been produced by trench warfare. Troops have been safe against rifle, shrapnel and machine gun fire, and with the aid of steel helmets and shields of various kinds, trenches have been advanced within few yards of each other. Hand grenades have been used, but on account of their weight they are only good for close in work.
 Mir Dowling's invention can be used by aircraft, small treinch mortars and large siege guns. The shell bursts in the air. releasing the grenades.-Em- pire.
