dies as well were lighted in honor
of it. so that when darkness fell
thick and starless about the wilder
ness, with masses of rain clouds
gathering overhead, the home at
the edge of Forbidden valley was
bright with glow and cheer. The
roast was cut open, and with at
tendant dishes of sukquttahhash,
iohnnycake, potatoes, and carrots,
and hasty pudding with maple
sirup, gave opportunity for such
feasting that an hour was we'll gone
before Hepsibah Adams thrust back
his end of the long table bench and
brought forth his fat pack from un-'

Jeems' sleeping loft.

CHAPTER I-Continued

1t lay in sheltered dip which
was like a diminutive child of the
larger valley, a low and cheerful
cabin of peeled logs. with more win
dows in it than a cautious man
would have had, and with a huge
chimney of clay and stone at the
end. 1t was a home of beauty and
comfort and luxury, as those things
were measured on the frontier, and
the best that Henri Bulain could
build. GATHERINGS love for this
home was next to her love for
Henri and her boy. Close about the
cabin was her own donain-her
flowers, her gardens of shrubs, her
bird houses built of chestnut bark,
her box hedges among the thinned-
out trees, with pretty paths edged
with whitewashed stones winding
in and out among them.
Running up to the borders of
these gardens were Henri's work
fields, beginning first. because of
GATHERINGS artistic eye, with the
gentler growths of husbandry-
carefully groomed and plotted soil
for herbs and vegetables and be-
yond lay the broader fields for
heavier grains and foods, ten acres
of Well-tilled land in all. ending up
against the hard maple wood out
of which, in the preceding month
of April, Henri had taken his years
supply of fifty gallons of maple
Strip and four times as many
pounds of sugar.
These precious possessions the
four saw as they came down the
green slope, and not one-half of
them would Catherine have ex-
changed for all of Madame Ton
tours riches.
Catherine was smiling at her hus-
band, and in Henri's eyes was an
answering light of happiness. when
out of the peace and beauty which
lay about their home rose a pierre
ing and blood-curdling cry-a cry
which seemed to stop every sound
that was in the air, a cry of mon
strous depth and vastness, and with
that cry wild figure came toward
them from its hiding place in the
greening shrubbery of GATHERINGS
garden.
With lurch of his shoulder,
Henri sent the bag of corn to the
ground, while ahead of him Jeems
swung his long gun into the crook
of his arm and Odd stiffened and
let out sullen growl. The
scraggy and mysterious figure adj
vanced up the slope and Jeems had
looked at his flint and printing and
stood with a ready thumb on the
hammer of his weapon when from
behind her husband and her boy
Catherine gave a first startled
gasp, then a little scream, and
sped past her protectors to meet
the advancing stranger with open
arms.
ITS Hepsibah !" she cried. "It's
Hepsibah !"

CHAPTER II

IT Il stirring words had scarcely
d fallen from his mothers lips
when Jeems laid his gun on the
ground and ran after her, but with
all his haste she was in her broth
er's arms before he could over
take her, while his father. carry

the corn, came hurriedly out of

Hepsibah Adams, the Indian trader
He was not as tall as Henri by
half a head, nor did he have his
leanness. His shoulders were wide
and his body thick, and his face
was as round as an apple and al
most as red, with marks and mars
of stress and battle set upon it, but
in such a way that its vivacity and
the good humor of its twinklng
eyes were enhanced rather than
spoiled by the vicissitudes of for
tune.
When the excitement of first
greetings was over, Catherine
stood back from her jolly rogue
of brother and viewed him with
a pair of eyes bright with affec-
tion, but which glowed at the same
time with an appraising and specu-
lative questioning which her lips at
once put into words.
"Hepsibah, am so happy to see
you that it makes my heart choke,
and yet | observe that you have
not kept your promise to stop fight

broke into a smile.

w E can never be sure just what

remedy can always be the same.
Good old Castoria! There's comfort
in every drop Of this pure vegetable
preparation, and not the slightest
harm in its frequent use. As often
as Baby has a fretful spell, is
feverish, or cries and can't sleep,
let Castoria soothe and quiet him.
Sometimes it's touch of collie.
Other times it's constipation. Or
diarrhea-a condition that should
always be checked promptly.
Just keep Castoria handy, and give
it promptly. Relief will follow very
promptly; if it doesn't you should
call physician.
All through babyhood, Castoria
should be a mothers standby; and
a wise mother continues it in more
liberal doses as a child grows up.
