"All aboard for the north side" he
said boyishly. And Hazel climbed obe-

On the farther side. Bill emptied the
canoe. and slowed II out of sight In
convenient thlcket, repacked his
horses and struck out again. Hazel
drew upon her knowledge of British
Columbia geography. and decided that
the big river where Bill hid his canoe
must be the Fraser where II debouched
from the mountains. And in that case
she was far north, and in n wilderness
indeed.
Her muscles gradually hardened 10

lite grew in proportion. The small sup

me OF force. violence or kidnapping
not by n long shot. You merely wan

accompany me. OF course I'll admit
that, according to custom and usage
you would expect me to do the polite
thing and restore you to your own

making it mandatory for a fellow to

tion: Get out into the wild country,
and live off the country as your prlmi-
tive forefathers did. OF course, you
can't do that alone. I know because
I've tried It. We humans don't differ
so greatly from the other animals.
We're made to hunt in couples or
packs. There's a purpose, law you
might say, behind that, too; only it's
terribly obscured by lot of other nom
essentials In this day and age"
But she would not take up the cud-
gels against him. would not seem to
countenance or condone his offense by
discussing II from any angle whatso-
ever. And she was more determined
TO allow no degree of friendliness, even
In conversation. because she recog-
nized the masterful quality of the
man.
After lapse of time they dropped
into another valley, and faced west
ward TO a mountain range which Bill
! told her was the Rockies. The next
day snowstorm struck them. 1t was
not particularly cold. Bill wrapped
utI u ta-AfAS foahf hhh pApN7
ded on. Noon passed, and he made
no stop. If anything. he increased his
pace.
Suddenly, in the late afternoon, they
stepped out of the timber into a little
clearing. In which the blurred outline
of cabin showed under the wide arms
Of leafless tree.
The melting snow had soaked
through the cont, her feet were wet
with the cllnging fakes. and the chill
Of lowering temperature had set Ha-
eel shlvering.
Roaring Bill halted at the door and
lifted her down from SILKS back with
out the fornallty Of asking her leave.
He pulled the latchstring, and led her
in. Beside the rude stone fireplace
wood and kindllng were piled In readl-
ness for use. Bill kicked the door
shut. dropped on his knees and started
the fire. In five minutes great blaze
leaped and cracked into the wide
throat OF the chimney. Then he piled
on more wood. and turned to her.
'"rhls is the house that Jack built"
he said. with sober face and Il
twinkle in his gray eyes. This is the
man that lives In the house thnt Jack
built. And thIs"-he pointed mis-
chievously at her-"is the woman
who's going to love the man that lives
In the house that Jack built"
That's liel' she flashed stormily
through her chattering teeth.
"Weli, wen see." he answered cheer
fully. "Get up here close to the fire
and take OF those wet things while

And with that he went out whistling.

between the pictures were nailed heads
of mountain sheep and goat, the ant
lers of deer and caribou. Above the
fireplace spread the huge shovel horns
of moose. bearing across the prongs
shotgun and fishing rods. The center
of the iioOr-itself, as she could see,
of hand-smoothed logs-was lightened
with great black and red and yellow
rug of curious weave. Covering up
the bare surface surrounding 1t were

rested in the fur of a monster silver
tip. fur thicker and softer than the
pile of any carpet ever fabricated by
man. All around the walls ran shelves
filled with books. A guitar stood in
one corner. mandolin in another.
Except for the dust that had gath
cred lightly in its owners absence. the
place was as neat and clean as II the
housemaid had but gone over 1t. Hazel
shrugged her shoulders. Roaring Bill
Wagstaf became, II anything, more OF
an enigma than ever, in the light of his
dwelling. She recollected that Cariboo
Meadows had regarded him askance.
and wondered why.
He came In while her gaze was still
rowing from one object to another, and
threw his wet outer clothing, boy
fashion, on the nearest chair.
''Well." he said, "we're here"
please don't forget, Mr.. Wagstafr."
she replied coldly. that would much
prefer not to be here"
He stood a moment regarding her
with his odd smile. Then he went into
the adjoining room. Out of this he
presently emerged. dragging a small
steamer trunk. He opened 1t. got down
on his knees, and paved over the con-

der, saw that the trunk was filled with
woman's garments, and sat amazed.
"Say. little person." Bill finally re-
marked, at looks to me as II you could

"Now. see here" Roaring Bill turned
reproachfully; "see here"
He grinned to himself then, and went
again into the other room, returning
with small. square mirror. He plant
ed himself squnrely in front of her,
and held up the glass. Hazel took one
look at her reflection, and she could
have struck Roaring Bill for his au-
dacity. She had not realized what
an altogether dlsreputable appearance
normally good-looking young woman
could acquire in two weeks on the
trail. with no toilet accessories and
only the clothes on her back. She
tried to snatch the mirror from him,
but BIZ eluded her reach, and laid the

of her sopping fOotgear and toasted
her bare feet at the blaze. Her cloth

pettishly how In the world she was
