Cow bells began to clang at the
edge of the forest.
'There they are" cried Polly. "Come
on, Liddy." The young hunter entered
door and within threw himself
across a rude bed, face down.
"Honori" cried one of the old wom-
en-, you go an git bucket o. water"
The whir stopped instantly, the girl
stepped with sort OF slow majesty
from the cabin, and entering the next,
paused ON the threshold as her eyes
caught the powerful figure stretched
on the bed and already In heavy sleep.
She felt the flush in her face and to
conceal it she turned her head angrily
when she came out. A few minutes
later she was at the spring and ladling
water into her pail with a gourd.
Near by the other two girls were milk
ing-each with her forehead against
the soft flank of a dun-colored COW
whose hoofs were stained with the
Juice of wild strawberries. Honor
dipped lazily. When her bucket was
full she fell a-dreaming, and when the
girls were through with their task
they turned to find her with deep, I'M
seeing eyes on the dark wilderness.
"Boo!' cried Polly, startling her,
and then teasingly:
"Are you In love with Dave, too,
Honor?'
The girl Redeemed.
NO." she whipped our, San amt
goin' to be-" And then she redeemed
again angrily as PolIy's hearty laugh
told her she had given herself away.
AS Honor turned abruptly for the fort,
q shot came from the woods followed
by a war-whoop that stopped the
blood shuddering In their veins.
"Oh, my Godi" each cried, and
catching at their wet skirts they fled
They heard the quick connection in
the fort, heard sharp commands cries
Of warning, frantic calls for them TO
hurry, saw strained faces at the gates,
saw Dave bound through and rush
toward them. And from the forest
there was nothing but Its silence until
that was again broken-this time by
loud laugh-the laugh of white
man. Then at the edge of the wilder
ness appeared-the fool. Behind him
followed the other two who had gone
out that morning, one with a deer
swung about his shoulders. and all
could hear the oaths Of both as they
cursed the fool in front who had
given shot and war-whoop, to brighten
women and make them run The sickly
smile passed from the face of the fel

grew white with fear.

from the woods, thudded into the roof
Of one of the cabins, suffered feebly
on a dew-drenched ridge-pole and
went out. Savage war-whoops rent
the air, and the battle was on. All day
the fight went on. There were feints
of attack In front and rushes from the
rear, and there were rushes from all
sides. The women loaded rifles and
cooked and cared for the wounded
Thrice an Indian reached the wall of
the stockade and set a cabin on fire,
but no one of the three got back to
the woods alive. The stranger boy sat
stoically in the center of the enclosure
watching everything, and making no
effort to take part. Late In the after
noon the ammunition began to run
low and the muddy discoloration of
the river showed that the red men had
begun to tunnel under the walls of the
fort And yet last sally was made
just before sunset. A body pushed
against Dave in the tower and Dave
saw the stranger boy at his side with
his bow and arrow. A few minutes
which rang high over the din, and he
saw the feathered tip of an arrow
shaking In the breast Of a big Indian
who staggered and fell behind a bush
Just at that moment there were yells
from the woods behind-the yells Of
white men that were answered by
joyful yells within the fort:

And as the rescuers dashed into sight
on horse and afoot, Dave saw the Lad
leap the wall of the stockade and dis
appear behind the fleeing Indians.
"Gone back to EN-" he grunted to
himself. The gates were thrown open.
Old Jerome and his men rushed out,
and besieged and rescuers poured all
their fire after the running Indians,
some of whom turned bravely to emp
ty their rifles once more.
''Git in! Git in, quick!" yelled old
Joel. He knew another volley would
come as soon as the Indians reached
the cover of thick woods, and come
the volley did. Three men fell-one
the leader of the Virginians, whose
head topped forward as he entered
the gate and was caught in old JoeIs
arms. Not another sound came from
the woods but again Dave from the
tower saw the cane-brush rustic at the
edge of q thicket, saw a hand thrust
upward with the palm of peace
toward the fort, and again the
stranger boy emerged-this time with
bloody scalp dangling In his left
hand. Dave sprang down and met him
at the gate. The boy shook his bow
and arrow proudly, pointed to criss
cross scar on the scalp, and Dave
made out from his explanation that
once before the lad had tried to kill
his tormentor and that the scar was
the sign. In the center of the enclos
ure the wounded Virginian lay, and
when old Jerome stripped the shirt
from his breast he shook his head
gravely. The wounded man opened
his eyes just In time to see and he
smiled.

CHAPTER 10
OF war.

Old Jerome and Dave and the older
men gathered In one corner of the
stockade for a council of war. The
boy had made 1t plain that the attack
ing party was at least two days be-
hind the three Indians from whom he
had escaped, so that there was no
danger that day, and they could wait
until night to send messengers to warn
the settlers outside to seek safety
within the fort. Meanwhile, Jerome
would dispatch five men with Dave to
scout for the three Indians who might
be near by in the woods, and the boy,
who saw them slip out the rear gate
of the fort, at once knew their pur-
pose, shook his head, and waved his
hand to say that his late friends were
gone back to hurry on the big war
party to the attack, now that the
whites themselves knew their danger.
Old Jerome nodded that he under
stood, and nodded to others his appre-
citation of the sense and keenness of
the lad, but he let the men go just the
same.
Mother Sanders appeared and cried
TO Bud to bring the 'Injun' to her
cabin. She had been unearthing
clothes for the 'little heathen," and
Bud helped to put them on. In a few
minutes the lad reappeared in fringed
hunting shirt and trousers, wrigg1ing
in them most uncomfortably, for they
made him itch, but at the same time
wearing them proudly.
On the mighty wilderness the sun
sank slowly and old Jerome sat in
the western tower to watch alone. The
silence out there was oppressive and
significant, for Ii meant that the boys
theory was right: the three Indians
had gone back to their fellows, and
when darkness came the old man sent
runners to the outlying cabins to warn
the inmates TO take refuge within the
fort And the gathering was none
too soon. The hooting of owls started
before dawn. 4 flaming arrow Kissed

wounded man, and still searching the
lad he said sharply again:
"Who is that boy?" Nor would he
have his wound dressed or even take

old Joel briefly told the story, when he
lay back on the ground and closed
his eyes.

watcher kept his eyes strained toward

man was laid on a rude bed within

EXERCISE
IN GYM CRITICIZED
ActiUity Must Haze an Object,
Says Osteopath.

Special Dispatch to THE New YoRK HERALD.
ATLANTIC CITY, April 29.-Dr. John A.

OF the Eastern Osteopathic Association
here to-day criticised the theory under

according to rote. but unconsciously or
automatically, said the speaker, and he
added.
'"rhe inactivity of modern environ
ment should be counteracted by artificial
exercise, but do not let that exercise be
a series of calesthenic motions without
any object. but the motion itself. Walk.

do not watch yourself move. If you
will spend six hours a week in a gym
nasium you can spend six hours out OF

how to do it."
