Guarded Since 1918.

IN the hospital since 1918 1t was
said at the hospital that he had at

years he has been there.
Frederick's mental condition was
such, however, that he was not per-

This morning he was missed from his
ward shortly after attendants had
seen him. Just how he got out had
not been learned.

to speak to you. The message that
came through was what made me de-
eide to marry Ivan. 1t was 'Chanle
the name-just that: Change the

He turned to her, and she saw that

He threw up his hands at Peter

Next Peter located Fortune Joe,
also obscured in the shadows, and
called him to his side. Search all
these fellows for weapons he or

Joe obeyed promptly, and at
Peters command carried down the
sacks of supplies that had been pre-
pared for tomorrow journey and
loaded them in the dory. The weap-

shielding Dorothy behind him, he
backed down to the waters edge.
He helped the girl into the bow
seat; then while he stood guard Joe
showed off. AS the boat was lifted
on the first little wave he himself
sprang in Joe grasped his oars.
Can we make it out?" Peter asked
quietly Of his oarsmen. There was
tremor in his voice now; but it
was nothing to cost Joe his conf
dence in him, or Dorothy her faith.
The native knew him as a strong
leader, worthy representative of a
great race. To Dorothy came the
certain knowledge that as long as
her hand lay in his, no rough seas
need appall her, no moaning dark
ness fill her with fear With such
companionship as they had, as ex-
listed everywhere between well,mated
men and women of their race. what

what lesser breeds despoil them Of
their dominance!

that blew them down the peninsula.
Many the time they were menaced
by reefs and up-jutting sea crags;
often they were harrassed by storms
and obliged to seek shelter in the
deep-cut bays. and more than once
it seemed beyond belief that thew
would not be instantly overwhelmed.
But always Fortune Joes good sea-

nerve and strong muscles, brought
them safely through.

after all. She had broken her wheel
on the way TO shelter that first day
and, helpless against the storm, had
been blown through the chain of
islands and far out into the Pacific.
Ultimately she had encountered
ship, had been helped into port, and
had arranged by wireless for a res.
cue party to go in search of her pas
senSers marooned on the mainland.
Ivan and his two followers had
already vanished into the interior
probably on their way to some CT
the Eskimo villages beyond the
bays. when the rescue ship touched
at the scene OF the late camp. Peters
return home, his wife beside him,
was accomplished in good time. and
here both are hidden in the maze of
human events. The straw that the
guide Pete had cut for the wilder
ness beds was blown away on the
winds. the cooking rack grew wealth
down, and the alder thickets spread
and encompassed the camp. Soon
there was little sign that human
beings had ever passed that way. The
caribou fed at the very mouth of
the dugOut, only occasionally stop
ping to sniff, in wonder. at the rain
beat ashes Of the fire; the wolverine
hunted with unabated ferocity along
the creek bed; and sometimes the
great, surly Alaskan grizzly wan
dered through the camp, wondering.
no doubt, what manner of his breth-
rem had once had their lair on this
lonely beach and why they had gone
away. The waves still broke and
rolled on the shore, but no one looked
across them for a returning ship;
and the wind blew, but no one was
appalled, by it's raving. Only the
white cross, seemingly spared by the
forces of the elements, still endured
"a white emblem of eternity; per
haps landmark for natives beating
down the coast in their skin boats.
Again the elements ruled supreme;
the snow lay untracked by human
footprints from sea to sea, the wind
swept unchecked by any human
habitation. Yet their victory would
be short-lived. AS Peter had prophe-
sled, in time even this storm-swept,
land would be drawn into
mans dominions. Peter himself
would return some time. There
was one duty still unperformed.
The matter was called TO his at
tention the second night after they
had boarded the rescue ship from
Unalaska. He had stood on the
deck with Dorothy, watching the
eerie trail where the churning pro-
peller set the sea aIght; and the
girl seemed wandering in a dream
world or her own. There's just one
thing that isn't clear, she told him,
in the low voice that haunted him
