had slept Well-SO SOundly that not once
had he reused himself during his six hours
in bed. 1t was the first time in months
he had slept like that. His blood tingled
with new warmth. He had no headache.
There was not that dull pain behind his
eyes. 1t was as if those wonderful hours
of sleep had wrested some deadly OBJ
struction out of his veins.
Marie came into the room, plating one
of her two thick ropes of shining black
hair. He nodded. Marie smiled, showing
her white teeth, her dark eyes clear as
fawn's He felt strange rejoicing-for
Thoreau. Thoreau was lucky man. He
could see proof of it in the Cree woman's
face. Both were lucky. They were
happy-a man and woman together, as
things should be.
Thoreau had broken the ice in pail.
and now he filled the wash-basin. Ice
water for his morning ablution was new
thing to David, but he plunged his face
into it recklessly. Little particles of ice
pricked his skin, and the chill of the
water seemed to sink into his vitals.
Marie used the basin next, and then
Thoreau. When Marie had dried her face
he noticed the old-rose flush in her cheeks,
the fire of rich red blood glowing under
her dark skin. Thoreau himself blubbered
and spouted in his ice-water bath like
joyous porpoise; and he rubbed himself
on the burlap until the two apple-red
spots above his beard glowed.
David found himself noticing these
things-very small things as they we're
taking a curious interest even in the quick,
deft slashes of the Frenchman's long knife
as he cut up the huge whitefish that was to
be their breakfast; in Marie's movements
as she wallowed the thick slices in yellow
corn-meal and dropped them into the hot
grease of the skillet. The odor of the fish
made him hungry, and he returned to his
room with the idea of putting on collar
and tie and his coat. He changed his
mind when he saw the photograph in its
newspaper wrapping on the table. In
another moment it was in his hands.
NOW, with day in the room and the
Az sun shining, he expected to see a
change. But there was no change in her.
She was there, as he had left her last
night, the question in her eyes, unspoken
words still on her lips.
He remembered that in one of his
leather bags there was magnifying glass.
and he hunted it out from among his be-
longings and scanned the almost illegible
writing on the back of the cardboard
mount. He made out the date quite

upon him, nearly always at night. Usu-
ally they were followed the next day by a
a terrific headache. More and more fire.
quently they had been warning him how
nearly down and out he was. He put out
his light and stretched himself between
the warm blankets of his bed, knowing
that he was about to begin again the fight
he dreaded-the struggle that always
came at night: nerves unstrung, worry,
emptiness of heart and soul-a world
turned black.
A SURGE of anger swept through him.
= Why was it that he could not rise up
and laugh, and shrug his shoulders, and
thank his God that, after all, there had
been no children? Why couldn't he do
that? Why? Why?
A long time afterward he seemed to be
asking that question. He seemed to be
crying it out aloud, over and over again.
And at last he seemed to be very near to
a girl who was standing waiting for him
on a rock; a girl who bent toward him
like wonderful flower, her arms reaching
out, her lips parted.
He slept. 1t was deep, cool sleep,
slumber beside Swallowed pool, with the
wind whispering gently in strange tree
tops and water ripping softly in strange
stream.
Sunshine followed storm. The winter
sun was cresting the tree-tops when
Thoreau got out of his bed to build fire
in the big stove. 1t was nine o'clock, and
bitter cold. The frost lay thick upon the
windows, with the sun staining it like the
silver and gold of old cathedral glass; and
as the fox-breeder opened the cabin door
to look at his thermometer he heard the
snap and the crack of that cold in the
trees outside, and in the timber of the log
walls. Forty-seven degrees below zero
cold enough! He turned, closed the door.
shivered. Then he stopped, half way to
the stove, and stared.
Last night Father Roland had warned
him to make no noise in the morning, to
let David sleep until noon; for he was
sick, worn out, and needed rest. And
there he stood now in the doorway of his
room, even before the fire was started
five years younger than he looked last
night, nodding cheerfully.
Thoreau grinned.
"Boo.jou, 'sieu," he said, in his Cree
French. "My order was to make no noise
and let you sleep" And he nodded
toward the missioner's room.
"The sun woke me-" said David.
He watched ThOreau build the fire. He

Tommy has always bean noted
for being q disciplinarian on the
ball field: he IL no iess the last
word In his home.
In Natick Tommy IL almost re-
gardei ns tho town oracle. When
some son OF Na,ick needs q little
money 70 tide him over q rough
spot. he generally goes TO Connolly.
When bride and bridegroom plan
their honeymoon. Tommy II always
consulted rs 10 the best route.
They know Tommy r. the most
widely Travelled man IN NAtick. A
fortunate citizen who has money 10
invest, usually seeks BIT OF advice
from Tommy before long or
short chance.
Connolly n regarded ~ the
wealthiest umpire in baseball. He
admits 20 having saved and made
$4,000 since his big league debut
AZ ono time he had all his funds In
thirty different banks.
Connolly has much Of HIS savings
At present tied up in Natiok real
