To him it will look Immoral your going to save a man's life," he said, savagely, "but for you an army nurse, with a life at stake," he pleaded, "is there any choice?" She smiled wistfully as she gazed over the frozen river. "I've got to go. It's in my blood to help them the wounded." Ills heart leaped at the words. "To help the strong to help me Is that In your blood, too, Joan Quarrier?" he asked passionately. She shivered and avoided his eyes, as a wave of eolor swept up to her l:irk hair. "Tie strong need no help," she parried Again In control of himself, the elated Guti-rismothered his own emotion In this thought for the stricken friend at Elkwan, for whom he had lied to tie man he respected arid the girl he loed.

P.cfore 1 became mission teacher, and my moral welfare the object of your solicitude, I lived for three years with wounde men. A man's life is nt stake. It is worth more than my reputation."

With the light load, of two passengers, the big runner sled Its wooden shoes shod with Ice, which slips over a hard surface with less friction than steel and can be renewed at will, would be sport for the five powerful dogs. Driving, as lie would, to bring skill and medicine to the succor of the guest at Elkwan, Garth hoped to reach the post before dawn, but much depended on the light. A thick night would slow the dogs to a walk while crossing the mouths of the big rivers, where tide cracks opened and closc.i over night and the trail led through hummocks and ridges, had going by to drivday at night, er and dogs. heart-breakin- "You're not sorry haven't regret- ted promising to come?" he asked, as he wrapped her In robes and stowed her hags.

The decision he had made beside the bunk in the Ghost, once he had struck on n feasible pl:.n of procedure, was inevitable to the man who owed bis life to the heroism of the stricken Galhraith. But the situation which Guthrie faced as he watched the high barrens of Aklmlskl catch and hold the veiled light of the dying sun, might easily result not only In dismissal from the company but in arrest by the authorities. His clear duty to his employers had demanded that he report to Cameron the presence of Laughing McDonald at Elkwan. The Information that a Hudson's bay factor had concealed from the government a man suspected of murder would raise a hornets' nest in Ottawa. All this Garth Guthrie had seen with clear vision the night before, when he shared his plan with Etienne, but as his eyes rested for an Instant on the tragic face of the friend who, that day In front of Amiens, had not counted the cost, there was In bis face the look of a man who would repay to the last farthing.
