CHAPTER XVII.
Alone in Darkness.

Never had the terror and loneliness
of blindness fallen upon Gray Wolf
as In the days that followed the shoot
ing of Kazan and his capture by Sandy
McTrigger. For hours after the shot
she crouched in the bush back from
the river, waiting for him to come to
her. She had faith that he would
come, as he had come thousand
times before. and she lay close on her
belly, shifting the air, and whining
when 1t brought no scent of her mate.
Day and night were alike an endless
chaos of darkness to her now, but she
knew when the sun went down. She
sensed the first deepening shadows of
evening, and she knew that the stars
were out, and that the river lay In
moonlight. 1t was a night to roam,
and after a time she moved restless
ly about in a small circle on the plain,
and sent out her first inquiring call
for Kazan. Up from the river came
the pungent odor of smoke, and in
stinctively she knew that it was this
smoke, and the nearness of man, that
was keeping Kazan from her. But
she went no nearer than that first cir
Gle made by her padded feet. Blind
ness had taught her to wait. Since
the day of the battle on the Sun Rock,
when the lynx had destroyed her eyes,
Kazan had never failed her. Three
time she called for him in the early

The Pope's Triple Crown.

Originally the tiara, or triple crown,
of the pope was a plain high cap,
much like those In which doges Of
Venice are so often represented In
old pictures. 1t was first introduced
by Pope Nicholas In $50.
Just when the first coronet was add
ed is matter of uncertainty, but the
second was placed by Pope Boniface
VIII in 1895 and the third by Pope
Urban V about 1893.
1t has been held that the three
crowns refer to the Holy Trinity,
though that evidently could not have
been the original idea, for they would
certainly have not been added one
after the other with an intervening
period in each case of many years.
Some authorities contend that they
denote the three-fold royalty Of the
bishop of Rome. one being the symbol
of the temporal power over the Roman
states, another the spiritual power
exercised over the souls of men, and
the third the authority over all the
kings and potentates Of Christendom.

All of this, of course, Is true, and
II, as some one has suggested, every
one of the 100000 war gardeners Of
the past season went seriously about
the business of rabbit raising there
would shortly be a plentiful supply Of
meat, cheaply produced and, on the
whole, very palatable, says the Indian

as the French prepare it, is thing to
dream Of. Further, the fur Of the rab-
bit can be used for coats and hats, and
thus our two great needs-something
to eat and something to wear-will be
satisfied If American families will be-
gin to keep the rabbit in their homes"
The prospect is alluring; the idea Is
pleasing. And possibly there are few
practical reasons why the suggestion
should not be carried into effect.

FEAST OR FAST?
BY DR.. SAMUEL G. DIXON.
Commissioner Of Health of Pennsylvania

Romans and start with feast?
Most people are familiar with the
ancient Roman feast, whose features
we would describe nowadays more ac-
curately with the name of orgy or de-
bauch. These feasts always made them
sick and the physical reaction would
be such that no food was taken into
the system for some time afterward.
So that the same result of a fast was
arrived at by a different route. My
associate, being a man of humorous
viewpoint, was just accenting this con-
dition.
When l asked him why he thought
of the more roundabout way of the
Romans, he replied that you got some
bllarity with It, "You get more out
of treating yourself by debauch, than
drugs" he said, and that is the way
good many people look at 1t, unfor-
tunately.
The Roman custom is recognized
historically as having continued long
afterward in other races, and perhaps
1t is still surviving today, In principle
/ ut icdSts uiuOuS utft duU
there.
Still, the mass of our people have q
more sensible view. 1t Is known that
fast will relieve nature while she
is coping with the task of overcoming
extra burdens that have been laid upon
the system. The debauch, which is
generally what high livers make Of
their feast" on the contrary is seen
generally as something that overloads
the system and adds to natures bur-
den, even though 1T mentally stimu-
lates the subject, sometimes to the
point where he might be guilty OF
crime. And there is the hilarity-a
thing to be remembered and tempt the
subject to try the same remedy the
next time.

period of time. they begin to
feel inert mentally and physical

the natural white of the eye is lost
and 1t becomes congested, showing
sometimes a yellow tinge; the appe-
tite begins to fail; natural sleep Is
broken up and interrupted, and when
awakening comes, the mind is puzzled
by confused ideas.
When these symptoms are recog-
uized, men of experience know 1t is
because the food taken has been In ex-
cess of the demands of the body.
Such a man was a laboratory asso-
ciate of mine years ago. Occasionally
he would salute me in the morning and
say: "What do you prescribe, doctor,
feast or a fast?" He meant that
he felt he had been neglecting all
outdoor exercise for long time and
had not at all neglected taking heavy
and frequent meals, until now his sys-

In the final moment, when only q step
separated them, and when men ex-
pected to see the first mad lunge, the
splendid Dane slowly raised his head
and looked over Kazan's back through
the glare of the lights. Harker trem-
bled, and under his breath he cursed.
The Danes throat was open to Kazan.
But between the beasts had passed the
voiceless pledge of peace. Kazan did
not leap. He turned. And shoulder to
shoulder-splendid In their contempt Of
man-they stood and looked through
the bars Of their prison into the one Of
human faces.
A roar burst from the crowd-a roar
OF anger, of demand, Of threat. In his
rage Harker drew a revolver and
leveled it at the Dane. Above the tu-
multi Of the crowd a single voice
stopped him.
Hold r. 1t demanded. "Hold-in the
name of the lawp
For a moment there was silence.
Every face turned In the direction Of
the voice. Two men stood on chairs
behind the last row. One was Sergeant
Brokaw Of the Royal Northwest
Mounted. 1t was he who had spoken.
He was holding up a hand, command
ing silence and attention. On the chair
beside him stood another man. He was
thin, with dropping shoulders, and a
pale smooth face-a little man, whose
physique and hollow cheeks told moth
ing of the years he had spent close up
along the raw edge Of the Arctic. 1t
was he who spoke now, while the SER
geant held up his hand. His voice was
low and quiet:
"I'n give the owners five hundred
dollars for those dogs" he said.
Every man In the room heard the Of
fer. Harker looked at Sandy. For an
instant their heads were close together
"They won't fight, and they'll make
good team mates" the little man went
on. 'TI give the owners five hundred

The little man hesitated. Then h,
nodded.

agreed.
Murmurs Of discomfort rose through
out the crowd. Harker climbed to tn
edge of the platform.

us, that's all. We amt to blame"
The little man was edging his way
between the chairs, accompanied by
the sergeant of police. With his pale
face close to the sapling bars of the
cage he looked at Kazan and the big
Dane.
II guess Wen be good friends" he
said, and he spoke so low that only the
dogs heard his voice. tits big price,
but Wen charge 1t to the Smithsonian,
lads. I'm going to need couple of

ber."
And no one knew why Kazan and the
Dane drew nearer to the little scien-
lists side of the cage as he pulled out
a big roll of bills and counted out six
hundred dollars for Harker and Sandy
McTrigger.

What is. perhaps, the oldest OF all
ways to select name for a city Or
street is to name it for a certain
date, and yet this has been done In
Brazil for hundreds of years. 1t was
on January l, 1881, nat Portuguese
captain, Alphonso de Souza by name,
entered the mouth of that marvelously
beautiful bay. on the shores OF which
now stands the capital of the vast re-
public of Brazil. Thinking that ne was
sailing into a great river, he named
the stream Rio de Janiero, or January
river. and all through the centuries
the name has remained.
