1t called him to a hard ride, perhaps
to difficult journey on foot after he
must leave his horse. He turned
promptly from the work in hand, ran
to his horse, swung up and sped back
to his cabin, to telephone to the near
est station, passing the word. Then
with ak and shovel, he began his slow
way toward the beacon.
Bud Lee, from the mountain-top
where he and Burkitt had taken
Hampton, saw it. Lee judged rough
ly that it was separated from him by
four or five miles of broken country,
impossible to a man on horseback, to
be covered laboriously on foot in a
matter of weary hours.
Lee and Green approached the sig
nal smoke from different quarters, Lee
from the west, Green from the north
east. They fought their way on to-
ward it with far different emotions
in their breasts. Greene with the de-
sire to do a days work and kill a

the passionate hope of finding Judith.
Lee reached his journeys end first.

climb he discharged his rifle again

coming, TO put hope into her. And

Stunning charge of Pollock Hampton.
And when they came near enough to
Burkitt's and Hampton's hiding-place,
Lee fired rifle several times to get
Burkitt's attention. Finally they saw
the boy, standing against the sky upon
a big rock, waving TO them. From
Lees shouts, from his gestures, chiefly
from the fact that Judith was there,
Burkitt understood and freed Hamp-
ton, the two of them coming swiftly
down to Judith and Lee.
Hampton's face was hot with the
anger which had grown overnight. He
came on stiffiy, chatting his wrists.
'1These two FOOLS" he snapped to
Judith, ''have made an awful mess of
things. They've queered the deal with

Cherokee Myth Tells of Bravery of Spider

Lucky was it for all the animals
that there are spiders that have egg
sacs resembling bowls, for otherwise
all the creatures of the forest would
have had to go without fire, the Youths
Companion remarks At least so we
are assured in a Cherokee myth. Nat
ural History thus tells the pretty story
in which spider played the part Of
Prometheus:
In. the beginning there was no fire,
and the world was cold. In time, how
ever, the thunders placed fire in a
hollow tree on an island The animals
gazed enviously at the smoke that
curled upward from the concealed bon
fire, knowing that there was warmth
there, yet at loss how to obtain 1t.
So they held a council. and as re-
suit the raven set out on the quest.
He reached the island and the tree,
but all that he bore back with him as
a result of his adventure was scorched
and blackened feathers. The little
screech owl next made the trial. He
reached the tree, but while he was
hesitating what to do next a blast of
fiery air arose and nearly burned out
his eyes, which are red 70 this day.

Venetian Glass

Venice has long led the world In the
manufacture of beautiful glassware
Glass works were early established in
that city and the taking of CONSTANT
nople in 1904 gave the Venetians the
opportunity of acquiring additional
knowledge of the art. During the
Fourteenth century beads, false
stones, and limitations of jewels, rath-
err than cups and the like, seem TO
have been the chief productions of
the Venice workman. Venetian glass
is usually of extreme thinness, being
nearly always blown. and there is an
endless variety to be found in the
shapes and in the application Of
color. Glass-blowing. like throwing
clay on the potter's wheel. induces
beautiful curved forms and strength

CHAPTER XVI
Bacon, Kisses and a Con-
fession

Throughout the night the tree blazed
unseen. Judith's eyes were closed in
the heavy sleep of exhaustion. The
flames roared and leaped high sky
ward, burning branches fell crashing
ly, to lie smouldering on the rocky
soil, the outstanding trunk glowed,
vivid against the skyline
In the early morning at least two
pairs of eyes found the plume of
smoke above the still burning giant
pine. A man named Greene, one of
the government forest rangers, blaz-
ing a new trail over Devils ridge,
came out upon height, saw it and
watched it frowningly across the miles,

reach Carson or some of the men in
Pocket valley and to get horses.
AS he drew nearer the ranch Lee
saw smoke rising from the north ridge.
Again he could turn his thoughts
little to what lay in front of him,
wondering what luck Carson had had
in his double task of fighting fire and
holding off the buyers.

let death come to find her. 1t seemed
to her that here in the rude arms of
Mother Earth human life was a
matter of no greater consequence
than the down upon a moths wing.
But she rested little and this mood,
foreign to her intrepid heart, passed,
and she sat up, again resolute, again
ready TO make her fight as long as life
beat through her blood. At last she
took the one match from her pocket.
She scarcely dared breathe when,
with dry grass and twigs piled against
rock, her dress shielding them from
the wind, she rubbed the match softly
against her boot. A suffering flame,
making the blue light of burning sui
phur, died down, creating panic in
her breast, then fiared, cracked, licked
at the grass. She had fire and she
knew how to use it
When a log was blazing, assuring
her that her fire was safe, she rose
swiftly and went in search of the
tree she meant to burn. She found
giant pine, pitch-oozing, standing in
rocky open space where there was
little danger of the fire spreading.
Tagged out and eager as she was, she
had not come to the point Of forget
ting what a great forest fire meant.
She went back to her burning log,
for blazing dry branch which she
carried swiftly to the tree. Then she
piled dry grass and dead twigs. logs
as heavy as she could carry, bits of
brush. The flames licked at the tree,
ran up it, seemed to fall away, sprang
at it again. hungering. Now and then
a long tongue of fire went cracking
high up along the side of the tree.
Judith went back to spot where, in
ring of boulders, there was another
grassy plot, threw herself down and
lay staring at the tongues of fire
which were climbing higher and high
er.
Some one would see her beacon. A
forest ranger, perhaps, whose duty 1t
was to ride fast and far to battle with
the first spark threatening the wooded
solitudes; perhaps some crew In a
logging-camp, than whom none knew
better the danger of spreading fires !;
perhaps some cowboy, even one of her
own men-perhaps Quinnion and
Ruth? She then would hide among
the rocks until they had come and
gone. Even now, against the sleep
falling upon her, she drew farther
back through the tumbled bouiders.
Perhaps, Bud Lee.
She went to sleep beyond the circle
of bright light, tired and hungry and
striving against returning hopeless
ness, her young body curled up in the
nest she had found, cheek cuddled
against her arm, wondering vaguely
if some one would see her fire and
come-if that some one might be Bud
Lee.

his Intellectual hardihood.
Daunted by the failure of their fel.
lows, the remaining animals managed
to find the weightiest of reasons for
not venturing to go. Not so the spi-
der, however. She wove a little tusti.
bowl OF her silk and, fastening it to
her back, set forth on her adventure.
Reaching the island, she crept through
the grass to the tree and snatched up
little ember of fire, which she placed
in her bowl and returned with il to
the expectant animals.
