In the course of his opinion the Conrt

Act and its enforcement. He said that
the Act itself did not permit II e search

when a proper search warrant had been
obtained which might be allowable in
the event there was evidence of the sale
of liquor in a home. The provision did
not extend to liquor that might be in the

The Court held that the police had ex-

But the terrible fangs were never
to know her white flesh. Some one
had come between. There was no
chance to shoot: Whisperfoot and the
girl were too near together for that
But one course remained; and there
was not even time TO count the cost.
In this most terrible moment of Dan
Failing's life. there was not even an
instant's hesitation. He did not know
that Whisperfoot was wounded. He
saw the beast creeping forward in the
weird dancing light of the fallen Ian
not hers, must resist its rending tai
ons. Nothing else mattered. No 9TH
er consideration could come between.
1t was the test; and Dams instincts
prompted coolly and well. He leaped
with all his strength. The cougar
bounded into his arms, not upon the
prone body of the girl. And she open
ed her eyes to hear a curious thrash
ing in the pine needles, strange grim
battle that, as the lantern flashed out,
was hidden in the darkness.
And that battle. in the far reaches
of the Divide, passed into legend. 1t
was the tale of how Dan Failing, his
gun knocked from his hands as he
met The cougars leap, with his own
unaided arms kept the life-giving
breath from the animals lungs and
killed him in the pine needles. Claw
and fang and the frenzy of death
could not matter at all.
Thus Failing established before all
men his right to the name he bore.
And thus he paid one of his debts
life for a life, as the code of the forest
has always decreed-and in the fire
of danger and pain his metal was
tried and proven.

springs of motive that few men can
see clearly enough within themselves
to recognize Even the first day, when
he lay burning from his wounds, he
worked out his own explanation in re-
gard to the murder mystery. He
hadn't the slightest doubt but that
Cranston had killed Hildreth to pre-
vent his testimony from reaching the
courts below OF course, any other
member of the arson ring of hillmen
might have been the murderer; yet
Dan was inclined to believe that Gran
stcn, the leader of the gang, usually
preferred to do such dangerous work
as this himself If it were true, some
where on that tree-clad ridge clues
would be left. Moreover. it was wholly
possible that the written testimony
Hildreth must have gathered had new
err been found or destroyed. Dan
didn't want the aid of the courts to
find these clues. He wanted to work
out the case himself. 1t resolved it
self into simple matter of vengeance:
Dan had his debt to pay, and he want
ed to bring Cranston to ruin by his
own hand alone.
While it was true that he took ra-
Their more than the casual interest
that most citizens feel in the destruc-
ton of the forest by wanton fire, and
had an actual sense of duty to do all
that he could to stop the activities of
the arson ring, his motives, strippe/
and bare, were really not utilitarian.
He had no particular interest in Hill

few days after Dams fight with Whis-

and talk were almost entirely lacking.
Two injured men and girl recovering

But the natural sturdiness of all
three quickly came to their aid. or

weeks would pass before he would ne

scratches that Dan bore on his body
quickly began to heal; and before
week was done he began to venture
forth on the hills again. Snowbird
had remained in bed for three days;
then she had hoped out one bright
afternoon, swearing never to go back
into it again. Evidently the crisp. fall
air of the mountains had been nerve
tonic for them all.
OF course there had been medical
attention. A doctor and a nurse had
motored up the day after the accident;
the physician had set the bones and
departed, and the nurse remained for
week. to see the grizZled mountain

But it was an anxious wait, and Len
nox's car was kept constantly in readi-
ness to speed her away in case the
SHOWS should start. At last she had
left him in Snowbird's hands, and Bill
had driven her back to the settlements
In his fathers car. The die was now
cast as to whether or not Dan and
the remainder of the family should
winter in the mountain. The snow
clouds deepened every day, the frost
was ever heavier in the dawns, and
the road would surely remain open
