fer anything, and find out her mistake
at once, than have her heart broken,
and her money wasted, through sew

Blondin had listened to this quietly,
his eyes moving from her lips to her
own earnest eyes, and wandering over
her animated face.

Was there slight stress on those
two words?
Mrs. Dale was visiting down the
river, so Barbara sat in her mothers
place.
''Now, you White Arrow, you Big
Chief, tell US the story" said Harry.
Grey began to look uncomfortable,
and so in truth, did Barbara.
What have you heard?" asked
Erskine quietly.
Never mind" interposed Barbara
quickly, "you tell u.s."
WHAT shouted Harry, when
Erskine told ow the pow-wow. "You
told both that you would fight with
the whites against bottle! What'd

Erskine smiled.

caught even the soft tread of her

she paused at the sun-Ddial. and

Soon the girl fluttered a handker-

Now her face was flushed and her

A fiery-looking youth sprang up
the landing-steps, bowed CALAMITY
