idly up to the fire. Then he looked
up with his whimsical smile.

point of view, it's a terrible thing

Then he stripped the horses Of
their burdens and tied them out
OF sight among the trees. That
task finished, he took his ak and
rustled a pile of wood. When fl
nally he laid aside his ak, he
busted himself with gathering
grass and leaves and pine needles

he laid his bedding, two or three
pairs of wooden blankets, a pillow,
the whole inclosed with a long
canvas sheet, the bed tarpaulin OF
the cattle ranges.

in whenever you feel like it,"
For himself, he took the saddle
blankets and laid them close by
the fire, within reaching distance
OF the woodpile, taking for a cover
pack canvas. He stretched him.
self at full length, filled his pipe,
and fell to staring into the fire
while he smoked.
Half an hour later he raised his
head and looked across the fire
at Hazel.
Why don't you go to bed?" hs
asked.
I'm not sleepy" she declared,
which was a palpable falsehood
for her eyelids were even then
dropping.
Maybe not, but you need rest"
Bill said, quietly. Quit thinking
things. It'll be all the same a
hundred years from now. Go to
bed. You'll be more comforta-

Thus peremptorily commanded

He went back to the fire. Hazel
sat up, patting her tousled hair
into some semblance of order.

CHAPTER VIII.

W you suppose l can get home
In time to open SCHOOL," she in
quired, anxiously.
Roaring Bill smiled. 81 don't
know he answered. 1T all de-
pends."
Upon what it depended he did
not specify, but busted himself
packing up. In half an hour or
less they were ready to start. Bill
spent few minutes shortening the
stirrups, then signified that she
should mount. He seemed more
thoughtful, less inclined to speech.
You know where you are now,
don't you?" she asked.
Not exactly" he responded
But | will before long-I hope"
The ambiguity of his answer did
not escape her. She puzzled over
1t while Silk ambled sedately be-
hind the other horses.
For two hours Roaring Bill
tramped through aisles bordered
with pine and spruce and fir. Not
once did they cross a road or a
trail. With the clouds hiding the
sun, she could not tell north from
south.
Aren't we ever going to get
there?" she called impatiently.
Pretty soon," he called back,
and struck out briskly again.
Another hour passed. They
crossed a ravine and slanted up a
steep hillside. Presently Hazel
could look away over an area of
woodland undulating like a heavy
ground swell at sea. Here and
there ridges stood forth boldly
above the general roll, and dis
family she could descry a white
capped mountain range. They
turned the end of thick patch OF
pine scrub, and Bill pulled up in a
small opening. From a case swing
ing at his belt he took out a pair
OF field glasses and leisurely sur
veyed the country.
"Well?" Hazel Intercepted
Nothing in sight, il there?"
Bill said thoughtfully.
Don't you know this country
at all?" she asked gloomily.

Thus he disarmed her for the
time being. She could not find

ed at length. IL.
He took up the lead rope and
moved on. They dropped over the
ridge crest and once more into
the woods. Roaring Bill made his
next halt beside a spring, and fell
to unlashing the packs.
What are you going to do?'
Hazel asked.
Cook bite and let the horses
graze," he told her. do you real
lie that we've been going since
daylight? It's near noon. Horses
have to eat and rest once in q
while, just the same as human
beings"
The logic of this Hazel could
not we'll deny.
Bill hobbled out his horses on
the grass below the spring, made
a fire, and set to work cooking.
