As he sat watching the moving eanocs through his binoculars, Jim wondered how. In the face of the odds which confronted him, the little old man hoped to outwit the sorcerer. What could he contrive before these gaping red men to make the fakir, Jlngwak, a laughing stock In the eyes of his own people?

When the twilight died and the hike lay muffled In shadow, Jim and Omar slipped their canoe Into the water and started for the Island. A few hours, now, would tell the tale.

The Sorcerer hud begun his Invocation of the spirits. At the fire swart faces turned gray with dread. Suddenly, out of the hush, lifted a voice as from the grave. A spirit was speaking. "The stranger from tin land where the sun sleeps Is no shaman. He came from the trader at the House of the Setting Sun, the home of devils. "Where Is Ibis conjuror," asked the sepulchral voice, "who tells the (djib-wa- s his magic Is stronger than that of Jingwak, my brother? lie Is not here I He fears the wrath of Jingwak, the groat shunian.

"Coine on I Theyll go crazy In a minute I Well he cut off from the canoe" Then the Iron fingers of O inr dug Into Jims arm as he muttered, "Look I Reside the medicine lodge stood an From the nodding head, apparition. mask with eye above a chalk-whit- e holes and a grimacing mouth, rose the antlers of a caribou.

Wide eyed, the electrified Indians waited for the funereal voice from the mask. I have come, oh Jlngwak! Otchlg, the shaman from Gods lake who fears not your magic. Is here!" Rut from the tipi of Jlngwak came d no sound. "Come forth, oh magician with the Otchlg, the shaman split tongue! from Gods lake, laughs at your medicine ! SHU the lodge of Jlngwak gave no answer. From the squatted OJibwas rose murmurs of surprise. Why did not Jingwak speak? Suddenly, In the gloom across the fire, sounded heated words. Jims eyes turned from the horned shape by the medicine lodge. An Inflamed face, lit by the glow, faded into the darkness. It was Paradis. Hoes Jlngwak, the friend of the trader, Iarad's, fear the magic of Otchlg that he hides his face? Low groans greeted the strange helm lor of the mute conjuror In the tent. "Hes afraid to come out I" whispered Jim, excitedly. "What's Esau done to him?" answer was a fierce The squeeze of the arm. Shortly, above the murmuring of the Indians l.ftod the voice of J.naw, "The strange sha the Rattlesnake: man has put a spell upon Jingwak:" There was a movement In the medicine lodge. The door (lap was thrust aside and the conjuror crawled slowly out.

At the same time Jim and Omar cut hack to t tie shore to head off Paradis, hut he had foreseen defeat and his canoe had lost Itself in the shadows.

And soon In the little Moon of the Spirit, when the trails were broken for sledding, he woul bring flour and trade-good- s for those who found the Journey too long to the House of the Sunset. In turn Jim and Omar spoke to the hunters, warning them that Paradis was now nn outlaw, and Inviting them to Sunset House. Then shaking the hand of the Indians, some of whom Stuart hnd reason to believe had fought him and Omar on the portage trail, Jim and his men headed back to camp. As his paddle tore the water, he laughed In his relief and joy: We've won! Weve won! Aurore! Dyou hear, down there In the city? Im coming hack to you, girl ; I've won 1" 1 "You foxy old devil!

And the grateful Jim again hugged the old man, whose smoke-tanneface, like old leather, beamed with his content. "Otchlg, the strange shaman from the west!" chuckled Jim. You clever rascal! When Jingwak saw ttiat the man who took his ears at Wolf river had called his bluff, he hung to that lodge of his like a fox to his hole! Io you suppose he had guessed before this who you were?" Mehhe so. Jinaw say dat Paradees look hard for me before eet grow dark. ah-ha- d half-breed- s rat-lik- e to side. "lies quit! Esaus got him!

The desperate Jlngwak turned to esenpe In the blaeknwes of the spruce, but Jlnaw and two OJibwas were on hint and dragged the sorcerer back to the fire.

At the foot of the big rapids of ths Sturgeon, Jim looked for, and found, the footprints of Smoke.
