He had dropped to his knee, and was firing again and again, his gray eyes looking clear and straight along the barrel, his fingers without Jerk or tremor pressing again and again at the trigger, his hands holding the rifle as In a vise. Every nerve and muscle were completely In his command. The distance was far, yet he shot with deadly, amazing accuracy. The wolves were within a few feet of the girl, and a fractions waver In the gun barrel might have sped his bullet toward her. Its Dan Falling, Lennox shouted as the fourth wolf died. Then Snowbird snatched her pistol from her fathers hand and opened fire. The two shells were no longer needed to free herself and her father from the agony of fangs. She took careful aim, and although a pistol is never as accurate or as powerful as a rifle, she killed one wolf and wounded another. Frenzied in their savagery, three or four of the remaining wolves leaped at the body of one of the wounded; but the others scattered In all directions. Still Dan fired with the same unbelievable accuracy, and still the The girl wolves died In the snow. and the man were screaming now In the frenzied joy of deliverance. The wolves scurried frantically among the trees ; and some of them unknowingly ran full In the face of their enemy, to be shot down without mercy. And few indeed were those that escaped to collect on a distant ridge, and, perhaps, to be haunted in dream by a death that came out of the shadows to blast the pack. Again the pack- - song would be despairing and strange In the winter nights that age old chant of Famine and Fear and the long war of exist made in Continued. 3 He was rigging everything for the sake of speed. He gave no heed to the fallen timber that might have torn the web of his snow shoes to shreds. Because he shut out all thought of it, he had no feeling of fatigue. The fight with Cranston had been a frightful strain on muscle and nerve; but he it now. His scarcely remembered whole purpose was to return to Snowbird before the wolves lost the last of their cowardice. The jerked venison that he had munched had brought him back much of his strength. He was wholly unconscious of his heavy pack. .Never did he glide so 'swiftly, so softly, with such unerring step; and it was nothing more or less than a perfect expression of the iron-cla- d control that his steel nerves had over his muscles. Then, through the silence, he beard the shout of the-pacas the wolf had leaped at Snowbird. He knew what it meantt The wolves were attacking then, and a great flood of black, hating bitterness poured over him at the thought he had been too late. If had all been in vain, and before the thought could fully go home, he heard the dim,' far-of- f crack of a pistol. Was that the first of the three shots, the one she might expend on the Volves, or had the first two already reen spent and was she taking the last gateway of escape? Perhaps even now Leaf iox was lying still on the sled, and she was standing before the ruin of her fire, praying that her soul might have wlngsi He shouted with all the power of hit Vangs across the snow. But Snowbird only heard the soft glide of the wolves In the snow. The wind was blowing toward Dan; and while he had heard the loud chorus of the pack, one of the most cries, and the penetrating crack of a pistol, she couldnt hear his answering shout In fact, the wilderness seemed pretematurally still. All was breathless, heavy with suspense, and she stood, just as Dan had thought, between the ruin of her fire and the sled, and she looked with straight eyes to the oncoming wolves. Lennox was Hurry, Snowbird, Give me the pistol for whispering. that last work. We have only a moment more. d He looked very calm and brave, as he was on the sled, and perlingered at his beardhaps a ed lips. And the bravest thing of all was that to spare her, he was willing to take the little weapon from her hand to use It in Its last service. She tried to smile at him, then crept over to his side. The strain was over. They knew what they had to face. She put the pistol in his steady hand. His hand lowered to his side and he sat waiting. The moments passed. The wolves seemed to be waiting, too, for the last flickering tongue of the little fire to die away. The last of her fuel was Ignited and burning out; they were crouched and ready to spring If she should venture forth after more. The darkness closed down deeper, and at last only a column of smoke remained. It was nothing to be afraid of. The great, gray leader of the pack, a wolf that weighed nearly 100 pounds, began slowly and deliberately to set his muscles for the spring. It was the same as when the great bull elk comes to bay at the base of the cliffs; usually some one wolf, often the great pack leader, wishing to remind his followers of his might, or else some male proud In his strength, will attack alone. Because this was the noblest game that the pack had ever faced, the leader chose to make the first leap himself. It wyas true that these two had neither such horns nor razor-edge- d hoofs as the elk, yet they had eyes that chilled his heart when he tried to look at them. But one was lying almost prone, and the fire was out. Besides, the madness of starvation, Intensified ten times by their terrible realization of the wound at her hip, was upon the pack as nevy before. The muscles bunched at his lean flanks. But as Snowbird and her father gazed at him In fascinated horror, the great wolf suddenly smashed down in the snow. She was aware of its curious, utter collapse actually before the sound of the rifle shot that occasioned It had penetrated her consciousness. It 'was a perfect shot at long range; and for a long Instant her tortured faculties refused to accept the truth. Then the rifle spoke again, and a second wolf a large male that crouched on the other side of the sled fell kicking in the snow. The pack had leaped forward at the first death; but they halted at the second. And then terror came to them when the third wolf suddenly opened Its savage lips and screamed In the death agony. Up to this time, except for the report of the rifle, the attack had been silence.

I wasnt going to tell you until until certain things happened and now they have happened, I cant wait another instant. He said that with a little more study you could get into the forest service take an examination and become a ranger. Youre a natural forester if one ever lived, and youd love the work. Besides, Lennox added, It would dip my Snowbirds wings to make her live on the plains. My big house will be rebuilt, children. There will be fires in the fire place on the fall nights. There Is no use of thinking Of the plains. And theres going to be house just a cottage at first right beside It, Dan replied. He could go back to his forests, after all. Hq wouldnt have to throw away his birthright, fought for so hard; and It seemed -- to him no other occupation could offer so much as that of the forest rangers those silent, guardians of the forest and keepers of . Its keys. . For a long time Snowbird and he stood together at the edge of the firelight, their bodies warm from the glow, their hearts brimming with words they could not utter. Words always come hard to the mountain people They are folk of action, and Dan, rathf er than to words, trusted to the yearn lng of his arms.

And because It Is the voice of the wilderness Itself, the tenderfoot that camps in the evergreen forest will listen, and his talk will die at his lips, and he will have the beginnings of knowledge. And perhaps he will wonder If God has given him the thews and fiber to meet the wilderness breast to breast as Dan had met it; to remain and to fight and to conquer. And thereby his metal will be tested in the eyes of the Red Gods. Snowbird stood waiting in the snow, arms stretched to her forester as Dnn came running through the wood. But his arms were wider yet, and she went ; softly into them. We will take It easy from now on, Dan Failing told them, after the camp was cleared of Its dead and the 'fire was built high. We have plenty of food ; and we will travel a little while each day and make warm camps at night. Well have friendship fires, just as sometimes we used to build on the ridge. But after you get down In the valleys? Lennox asked anxiously. Are you and Snowbird coming up here to live? The silence fell over their camp ; and a wounded wolf whined in the darkness. Do you think I could leave it now? Dan asked. By no gift of words could he have explained why; yet he knew that by token of his conquest, hts spirit was wedded to the dark forests forever. But heaven knows what Ill do for a living. Snowbird crept near him, and her 1 Barnstables Old Bell. In the courthouse at Barnstable, Mass., Is an old bell, cracked and silent which may be, and probably Is, the oldest bell In the United States. So thinks Mr. Alfred Crocker, clerk of courts of Barnstable county. The date 1675 is still plainly visible in the photograph recently printed In the Boston Evening Transcript. By this date, however, the old bell bad seen nearly a quarter of a century of life in England before It came to America and began calling worshipers together In the church at Sandwich town. Gratitude bought the hell In England, for it came as a gift from Mrs. Peter Adolph, whose husband, Captain Adolph, was lost in the wreck of his vessel on the Massachusetts coast in 1697 despite the efforts of the people of Sandwich. - Drawing an Audience.

This is the time of year to .start a mall spot iu the kitchen garden for a few herbs and condiments. With bunches of the home-grow- v prod-- n uct put away for use during 'the year you are sure of good, fresh country. The jobs arent always the pleasantest sort either, or the easiest, but when a scout tackles the thing he does It for all hes worth, with brain and brawn and a right good will. Here are a few little things scouts in Birmingham did, In their leisure hours. It looks as if these boys were not only going to be good citizens in the future, but are good citizens, here and now. One scout repaired a bridge, cleaned mud out of two curbs and drained a ditch; half-hou-r time. Five scouts removed a large . pile of brush where trees had oeen trimmed up; 15 minutes each. Five scouts repaired a street where it had washed out by piling rocks and brush and then dirt on top ; one hours . welt flavored herbs. They should be cut as soon as the first flowers appear, as they then ontain the most oil (which is the Havor) In the leaf. Cut them in the morning after the dew Its off, and dry in a clean, cool shady place. When the leaves are so dry that they crumble, rub. the herbs through the hands, discarding all the stems and tough portions, and dry a little longer, for even a bit of moisture, will ruin the flavor. Pack away in glass containers in a cool, dry place. The seed should be sown in early spring, in drills, and covered lightly; then pressed- - firmly over the tiny seeds. Chervil and thyme, parsley and sage, dill and caraway are all useful' rosemary and rue are used for various things, seasoning, stimulants, and perfume.. Lavender for the linen closet is so well known that it need not be mentioned. Fennel and anise are much used in some localities and some of each will be found of use. A row of the mustard will be especially appetizing; it may be used as an accompaniment to lettuce or alone as a salad, or cooked as greens. Its piquant flavor is very attractive. Thyme leaves may be used ns a garnish as is chervil ; the fpathery leaves of the latter make it especially pretty. Thyme Is used for seasoning as is chervil, making a fine flavor lor poultry or croquettes. Parsley should be sown early as soon as the ground is warm enough as it takes some time to grow, A small pot is always useful to carry over for the winter. Use the moss leaved variety; it is prettier and is much In demand for garnishes. Grapenuts added to a salad or pudding iu place of chopped nuts makes a most desirable substitute that will not hurt the children. air-tig- ht time. Two scouts burled a dead hen, that the city health department would not remove; 30 minutes time. Four scouts dug a drainway to let standing water out of the street, and opened up ten sewers and 23 gutters. and , Two scouts repaired a bridge opened four sewers and 20 gutters; ten hours. One scout cut a dead tree which stood close by the passageway and was very dangerous to those passing; one hour. Eleven scouts worked two hours getting water out ofjtasenient of a church, then built a fire and dried out the place. Three scouts repaired four sewers, also raked up a lot of leaves from around a house and burned them, as they were dangerous to the commuhours. nity; one and one-half CHIEF SEA SCOUT REPORTS. At the last national council meeting the chief sea scout, James A. Wilder, made this report: We have found our sea legs. After some hacking and filling as to the best methods, we have, with the advice- of some 400 executives, and others, settled on the course to be steered. This decision has steadied the program and the taffrail log begins to register more speed. November, 1920, was our banner month, followed by the record breakers, December and January, 1920 and 1921. As we go to press, February, 1921, has already broken the record again. We have registered more ships in the last five months than in the previous three' years. This is at the rate of 110 per wide-leafe- d THE GIFTS. sea-coa- st cent increase annually. We have the assurance that the seacoast program is being pushed as the official older boy program, In 87 cities. Ships papers or preliminary steps have already been taken by 104 Ibout centers. In some cities, notably San Francisco, Honolulu and others, the program has been under way for several years without the registry of a single ship, because of a vote to thoroughly train leadership before admitting boys to membership. The at the rate we are growing at present, will be 200 ships In 1922. If the last four months increase In our number Is maintained we will be, Id six months, the largest seamanship training course or nautical school In the United States. Swift Increase Is not expected in the face of such slogans as You must know It all the time, Dont start anything you cant finish. Practice makes perfect. No frauds. The ship Is what you make her. Dont give up the ship. Nevertheless, were already half the size of Annapolis, and as far as plain sailing goes, we are giving the same program.

"The slogan is now, run your troop like a ship, and in a seamanlike manner. Seacoast centers are asked to avoid foolhardy practices, slack seamanship and frauds, and the local shipping committees are required to fake a pledge that no boatwork or small boat sailing shall take place until the ship's company have qualified This waiting game may as lifesavers. not spell numbers, but spells quality, Professor Letterktnk Im delighted to see so large a gathering in the house.
