ness of the trees, was the body Of the
man he had killed, covered with
blanket. Thorpe, his master, had
dragged 1t there.
He lay down, with his nose to the
warm Goals and his eyes leveled be-
tween his forepaws. straight at the
closed tent-fap. He meant TO keep
awake, to watch, to be ready to stink
off into the forest at the first move
ment there. But a warmth was rising
from out of the gray ash of the fire.
bed, and his eyes closed. Twice-three
times-he fought himself back into
watchfulness; but the last time his
eyes came only half open, and closed
heavily again.
In his sleep he was leaping again at
the end of his chain. His jaws snapped
like castanets of steel-and the sound
awakened him, and he sprang to his
feet, his spine as stiff as q brush, and
his snarling fangs barred like ivory
knives. He had awakened just in time.
There was movement in the tent. His
master was awake, and IL he did not
escape
He sped swiftly into the thick spruce,
and paused, fiat and hidden, with only
his head showing from behind tree.
He knew that his master would not
spare him. Three times Thorpe had
beaten him for swapping at McCready.
The last time he would have shot him
If the girl had not saved him. And
now he had torn McCready's throat.
He had taken the life from him, and
his master would not spare him. Even
the woman could not save him.
Kazan was sorry that his master had
returned, dazed and bleeding, after he
had torn McCready's jugular. Then he
would have had her always. She would
have loved him. She did love him. And
he would have followed her, and fought
for her always, and died for her when
the time came. But Thorpe had come
in from the forest again, and Kazar
had skunk away quickly-for Thorpe
meant to him what all men meant t.
him now: the club, the whip and the
strange things that spat fire and death
And now
Thorpe had come out from the tent
It was approaching dawn, and in his
hand he held rifle. A moment later
the girl came out, and her hand caught
the mans arm. They looked towart

on his back. A second and q third
time he sprang the length of the leash
into the night, and the babiche cord
about his neck cut into his flesh like
knife. He stopped for an instant,
gasping for breath. The shadows were
still fighting. Now they were upright
Now they were crumpling down! With
a fierce snarl he flung his whole weight
once more at the end of the chain.
There was snap, as the thong about
his neck gave way.
In half dozen bounds Kazan made
the tent and rushed under the flap.
With snarl he was at McCready's
throat. The first snap of his powerful
jaws was death, but he did not know
that. He knew only that his mistress
was there, and that he was fighting for
her. There came one choking gasping
cry that ended with terrible sob; 1t
was McCready. The man sank from
his knees upon his back, and Kazan
thrust his fangs deeper into his
enemy's throat; he felt the warm blood.
The dogs mistress was calling to
him now. She was pulling at his shaggy
neck. But he would not loose his hold
not for long time. When he did,
his mistress looked down once upon
the man and covered her face with her
hands. Then she sank down upon the
blankets. She was very still. Her face
and hands were cold, and Kazan muz-
zled them tenderly. Her eyes were
closed. He snuggled up close against
her, with his ready jaws turned toward
the dead man. Why was she SO still,
he wondered?
A long time passed, and then she
moved. Her eyes opened. Her hand
touched him.
Then he heard a step outside.
It was his master, and with that old
thrill of fear-fear Of the club-he
went swiftly to the door. Yes, there
was his master in the firelight-and in
his hand he held the club. He was
coming slowly, almost falling at each
step, and his face was red with blood.
But he had the club! He would beat
him again-beat him terribly for hurt
ing McCready; so Kazan slipped quiet
ly under the tent-flap and stole of into
the shadows. From out the gloom of
the thick spruce he looked back, and
low whine of love and grief rose and
died softly in his throat. They would
beat him always now-after that. Even
she would beat him. They would hunt
him down, and beat him when they
found him.
From out Of the glow Of the fire he
turned his wolfish head to the depths
of the forest. There were no clubs or
singing lashes out in that gloom. They
would never find him there.
For another moment he wavered.
And then, as silently as one Of the wild
creatures whose blood was partly his,
he stole away into the blackness Of the
night.

the thing covered by the blanket. Then
she spoke to Thorpe and he suddenly
Strengthened and threw back his head.
100000 - Kazan - Kazan - Ka-
zan!" he called.
A shiver ran through Kazan. The
man was trying to inveigle him back.
He had in his hand the thing that
killed.
"Kazan-Kazan-Ka he
shouted again.
Kazan sneaked cautiously back
from the tree. He knew that distance
meant nothing to the cold thing of
death that Thorpe held in his hand. He
turned his head once, and whined soft
ly, and for an instant great longing
filled his Redeemed eyes as he saw the
last Of the girl.
He knew, now, that he was leaving
her forever, and there was an ache in
his heart that had never been there be-
fore, pain that was not Of the club or
whip. of cold or hunger, but which was
greater than them all, and which filled
him with desire to throw back his
head and cry out his loneliness to the
gray emptiness of the sky.
Back in the camp the girls voice
Quivered.
HE Is gone"
The mans strong voice choked lit

Eyes, he Is gone. He knew-and
didn't. I'd give-a year Of my life-if
hadn't whipped him yesterday and last
night. He won't come back"
Isobel Thorpe's hand frightened on
his arm.
HE will" she cried. HE won't
leave me. He loved me, If he was saw

"Listenw
From deep in the forest there came
long wailing howl, filled with a plain
tive sadness. It was Kazan's farewell
to the woman.

CHAPTER W.
Free From Bonds.


There was low moaning Of the
wind in the spruce tops as Kazan skunk
off into the blackness and mystery Of
the forest. For hours he lay near the
camp, his red and blistered eyes gaz-
ing steadily at the tent wherein the ter
rible thing had happened little while
before.
He knew now what death was. He
could tell 1t farther than man. He
could smell 1t in the air. And he knew
that there was death all about him,
and that he was the cause Of 1t. He
lay on his belly In the deep snow and
shivered, and the three-quarters of him
that was dog whined in grief-stricken
way, while the quarter that was wolf
still revealed itself menacingly in his
fangs, and in the vengeful glare of his
eyes.
Three times the man-his MASTER
came out of the tent, and shouted loud
ly, "Kazan-Kazan-Kaz
Three times the woman came with

as he had seen 1t in the tent, when he
had leaped up and killed the other
man. In her blue eyes there was the
same wild terror, and her face was
white as the snow. "Kazan-Kazan-
Kazan !''-and all that part Of him that
was dog, and not wolf, trembled joy
ously at the sound Of her voice, and he
almost crept in to take his beating. But
fear Of the club was the greater, and
he held back, hour after hour, until
now 1t was silent again in the tent,
and he could no longer see their shad-
ows, and the fire was dying down.
Cautiously he crept out from the
thick gloom. working his way on his
belly toward the packed sledge, and
what remained of the burned logs. De
