BAREE, Son of Kazan By James Oliver Curwood , Deebiedajr. Face at Ce.) WNU Barvlct his burrow In the dog corral, and at least twice between dawn and dark-ness he would go to the birch-bar-tepee and the chasm. His trail, soon 'eaten hard lu the snow, became as Hied as I'lerrot'e trup-lln- And then, of a sudden, Baree made n change. He spent a night in the lepee. After that, whenever he was at the (iruy Loon, during the day he always slept In the tepee. The two blankets were his bed and tbey were a part of Nepeese. And there, all through the long winter, he waited. The winter passed, and spring came, and still Baree continued to haunt his old trails, even going now and then over the old trap-lin- e as far as the first of the two cabins. The traps were- rusted and sprung now; the thawing gnow disclosed bones and feathers between their Jaws; under the deadfalls were remnants of fur, and out on the Ice of the lakes were picked skeletons of foxes and wolves that had taken the poison hulls. The last snow went. The swolleu streams snng In the forests' and canyons. The grass turned green, and the first flow-ers came. All these things were happening, and the birds had mated and nested, and still Nepeese did not cornel And at lust something broke inside of Bsree, his Inst hope, perhaps, his last dream; and one day he bade good by to the Gray Loon. No one can say what It cost him to go; no one can say how he fought against the things that were holding him to the tepee, the old swimming-pool- , the familiar paths In the forest, and the two graves that were not so lonely now under the tall Spruce. lie Chapter XII Continued 21 It was a wonderfully clear night after the storm cold and brilliant, with the shadows standing out as clearly as living things. The third Idea came to Baree now. He was, like all animals, largely of one Idea at a timea creature with whom al' lesser Impulses were governed by a single leading Impulse. And this I in pulse, In the glow of the starlit night was to rcuch as quickly as possible the first of Pierrot's two cabins on the trap-line- . There be would dud Nepeese I We won't call the process by which Baree came to this conclusion a proc-ess of reasoning; Instinct or reason-ing, whatever it was, a fixed and posi-tive faith came to Baree Just the same. He. began to miss the traps In bis haste to cover distanceto reach the cabin, It was twenty-flv- e miles from Pier-rot's burned home to the first trap-etabl-and Baree had made ten of these by nlghtfull. The remaining fif-teen were the most difficult. In the open spaces the snow was belly-dee- BHd soft; frequently he plunged through drifts in which for a few mo-ments he was burled. ' Three times during the early part of the night Boree heard the savage dirge of' the wolves. Once It was a wild paen of triumph as the hunters pulled down their kill less than half a mile awuy In the deep forest. But the voice no longer ca'lled to him. It was repellent a voice of hatred and of treachery. Euch time that he heard It he stopped In his tracks and suarled, while his spine stiffened. ' At midnight Baree came to the tiny amphitheater in the forest where Pierrot had out the logs for the first of his trap-lin- e cabins. For at least a minute Baree stood at the edge of the clearing, his ears very alert, his eye bright with hope and expecta-tion, while he sniffed the air. There was no smoke, no sound, no light In tfie' rtne window of the log shack. Ills disappointment fell, on him even as he stood there; again he sensed the fact of his aloneness, of the barren-ness of his quest. There was a dis-heartened slouch to his body as he made bis way through the snow to the cabin door. He bad traveled twenty-flv- e miles, and he was tired. The snow was drifted deep at the doorway, and here Baree sat down and whined. It was no longer the anxious, questing whine of a few hours ngo. Now It voiced hopelessness and a deep despair.' Vhr half an hour he sat shiv-ering with his buck to the door and his-- face to the starlit wilderness, ns if there still remained the fleeting hope that Nepeese might follow after him over the trail. Then lie burrowed ' himself a hole deep In the snowdrift and passed the remainder of the night lrt unensy slumber. 'With the first light of day Baree re-sumed the trail. He was not ro alert this morning. There was the dlseon- - - chased him. That seemed but yester-day. He entered the little meadew, and stood beside the great rock that had almost crushed the life oat of the Willow's body; and then he remem-bered where Wakayoo, his big bear friend, had died under Pierrot's rifle and he swelled of Wakayoo'a whitened bones where they lay scattered In the green grass, with flower growing up among them. And now, for the first time in many weeks, a bit of the old-tim- eagerness put speed Into Baree's feet. Memories that had been hazy and indistinct through forgetfulness were becoming realities again, and as he would have returned to 1 the Gray Loon had Nepeese been there so now, with some-thing of the feeling of a wanderer go-ing home, he returned to the old beaver-p-ond. All through the month of August Baree made the beaver-pon- d his head-quarters. At times his excursions kept him away for two or three days at a time. These Journeys were al-ways Into the north, sometimes a little east and sometimes a little west, but never again into the south. And at last, early In September, he left the beaver-pon- for good. ' It was almost December when Le-ru- e, a hulflireed from Lac Kaln, saw Bnree's footprints In freshly fallen snow, and a little later caught a flash of him In the bush. "Mon Dleu. I tell you his feet are as big as my hand, and he is as black as a raven's wing with the sun on It!" he exclaimed In the Company's store at Lac Bain. --A fox? Non I He is half as big as a bear. A wolfoul! And black as the devil, M'sleus." McTaggart was one of those who heard. He was putting his signature In Ink to a letter he had written to the Company when Lerue's words came to hi in. Ilia hund stopped so suddenly that a drop of Ink spattered on the letter. Through him there ran a cu-rious shiver as he looked over at the halfbreed. Just then Marie came In. McTaggart had brought her back from her tribe. Her big, dark eyes had a sick look in them, and some of her wild beauty had gone since a year ago. With scarcely a sound that the oth-ers could hear Marie had whispered Into the Factor's ear, and folding his letter McTaggart rose quickly and left the store. He was gone an hour. Le-ru- e and the others were puzzled. It was not often that Marie came Into the store; It was not often that they sow her at all. She remained hidden In the Factor's log house, and each time that he sow her Lerue thought that her face was a little thinner than the Inst, and her eyes bigger and hun-grier looking. In his own heart there was a great yearning. Many a night he passed the little window beyond which he knew that she was sleeping ; often he looked to catch a 'glimpse of her pale face, and he lived In the one hap-piness of knowing that Murle under-stood, ami that Into her eyes there' enme for an Instant a different light when their glances met. No one else ' knew. The secret lay between them and patiently Lerue waited and watched. "Some day," he kept saying to himself "Some day" and that was all. Lerue was thinking of this when McTaggart returned at the end of the hour. The Factor came straight up to where the half dozen of them were seated about the big box stove, and with a grunt of satisfaction shook the freshly fallen snow from his; shoulders. "Pierre Eustuch has accepted the government's offer, and Is going to guide the map-makin- party up Into the Barrens this winter," he an-nounced. "You know, Lerue1 he has a hundred and fifty traps and dead-falls set, and a big poison-bai- t coun-try. A good line, eh? And I have leased It of him for the season. It will give me the outdoor work I need three days on the trail, three days here. Kh, what do you suy to the bar-gain?" . "It Is good," said Lerue. .. - "Yes, it Is good," said lioget. "A wide fox country," said Mons Route. "And easy to travel," murmured Va-lence In a voice that was almost like a woman's. (TO feffi CONTINUED.) And Into the North He Went went. He had no reason simply went. It may be that there Is a Master whose hand guides the beast as well as the man, and that we know Just enough of this guidance to call it Instinct. For, in dragging himself away, Baree faced the Great Adven-ture. It was there. In the north, waiting for him and Into the north he went ' It was early In August when Baree left the Gray Loon. He had no objec-tive In view. But there was still left upon his mind, like the delicate Im-pression of light and shadow on a negative, the memories of his earlier days. Things am. happenings that he had almost forgotten recurred to him, as his trail led him further and far-ther away from the Gray Loon; and his earlier experiences became real again,, pictures thrown out afresh In his mind by the breaking of the last ties that held him to the home of the Willow. Involuntarily he followed the trail of these Impressions of these past happenings, and slowly they helped to build up new Interests for hlm. He came to the blind canyon up which Nepeese and Pierrot had solnte droop to his tall which the In-dians call the Akoosewln the sign of the sick dog. And Baree was sick not of body but of soul. The keenness n( his hope hnd died, and he no longer expected to find the Willow, The second cabin at the far end of the trap-lin- drew him on, but It inspired In him none of the enthuslusm with which he had hurried to the first. He traveled slowly and spasmodically, his suspicions of the forests again replac-ing the excitement of his quest. He approached each of Pierrot's trups and deadfalls cautiously, and twice he showed his fangs once at a marten that snapped at him from under a root where It had dragged the trap In which It was caught, and the second time at a big snowy owl that had come to flteol bait and was now a prisoner at the end f a steel chain. H nuiy be that Baree thought It was Oohnomisew and that he stlO remem-bered vividly the treacherous, assault und fierce battle. of that night when, us a puppy. 'he was dragging his sore and wounded body through the mys-tery and fear of the big timber. For he did more than to show his fangs, lie toretthe owl into pieces. . There' were plenty of rabbits In Pierrot's traps, and liaree did not go hungry. 'lie 'reached the second trap-Hu- e cabin hite In the afternoon, after ton hours of traveling, lie met with 116. very great disappointment here, for iie had not anticipated very much, jlie snow had banked this cabin even higher than the other. It lay three iVet deep against the door, and the tind(w was white with a thick coat-I.jo- f frost.

Ensemble Models for Fall Season Combination Outfit Impor-tant Feature of Paris Collections. Parisian designers have already In-dicated what they consider a proper vogue for the early fall, and among Ihe costumes shown at the recent style revue are many which follow the lines of spring and summer modes, with straight silhouette In coats with little or no fullness, the simple dresses widened by plaits, and those fur dressier wear having Irregular move-ment with fullness usually placed In front Contrary to a prevalent rumor, ob-serves a fashion writer In the Detroit News, many modistes still stress the ensemble costume, and muke this tyue of outfit an Important feature of their collection, but also have given due thought to sports frocks aud evening dresses. In one collection sports dresses con-sist of a skirt and jumper, the former of which Is generally widened, by box or Inverted plaits. The jumper Is made to resemble a sort of waistcoat or Jacket by the fact that It Is gener-ally trimmed with a plastron and col-lar, which appear to be formed by a crepe blouse of a lighter or contrast-ing shade. Coat-frock- of which there are an appreciable number, sometimes close-ly resemble these suits, the bodice giv-ing a sort of Jacket effect. Generally, however, they consist of a plain bodice and a pllsse skirt, which Is either cut open at the buck and front or widened by Inverted plaits. The suit presented for afternoon wear generally consists of a long cont Inverted Plaits That Provide the Skirt With Fullness. worn over a Jumper suit, this latter being very frequently seen, although Invariably presented under a novel aspect Crepe satin Is often em-ployed for these costumes, which are generally executed in the dull side of the material and trimmed with shiny bands. The coats, which are often straight, are trimmed with an im-portant fur border Inserted in scal-lops and decorated with a design formed by a gnnse embroidery. The skirt worn with the dull crepe sutlu sweater is often shiny. A most suc- - cessful navy blue suit has the sweater Lrlmmed with a shiny rounded border, which is repeated on ttie skirt. Some-times a novel effect is obtulned by a contrasting .sweater as In un ensem-ble consisting of a straight red crepe coat, worn over a red skirt widened Ht the buck and front by an inverted plait und having a red and blue striped sweater. A. similar smart nuvy blue suit has a gray jumper. Ensembles made in cloth or woolen fabrics are most successful and one of ihe best models Is of beige cloth, which has u straight coat woru with a dress widened by rounded punels. U is in this category that some cape-coat- s are still found and It is In this case that a striped or fancy woolen Jacket Is worn with the dress. Some-times, however, u cloth or woolen coat Is woru over a Jumper of two scal-loped plisse flounces. Ensemble Theme Enters the Mode at the Cradle The three principal essentials of the infant's wardrobe are these ma-terials must be of the sheerest pos-sible sort; seams, wherever present, must be hand-sewe- d and absolutely fiat I all clothes should hang loosely from the shoulders. The reason for these specifications Is obvious. Sheer fabrics and flat, hand-sewe-seams are required so as not to Injure the very tender skin of the new-bor- n Infant. All clothes should be loose, because constricting bands and tight dresses impede the circulation and lr-- ritote the skin. A satisfactory, although by no means luxurious, layette should in-clude four dresses, four gertrudoe, four nightgowns, four bands measur-ing 0 by 27 Inches, four bands, size 2; four vests, size 2, and three pairs of stockings. The size 2 bands and the vests should be of silk and wool, while the stockings may be of silk and wool or cotton and. wool. Ger-trudes and nightgowns are preferably of flannelette or a similar material they should never be tight. For the first two weeks of its exist-ence the baby will wear a pinning band, after which that will be dis-carded and a sleeveless' band substituted, this latter to be worn under a shirt of the same ma-terial with sleeves. The ensemble theme apparently enters the mode at the cradle. Joyous Hour$ "Is Bernice happily married?" "Yes, Indeed, her husband's away most of the time." - Cultlcura for Pimply Faces.

It Is too late to ask, it is here, it Is navy blue, in pastel shades, in rich tans and browns and wine reds. Moire is treated in much the same way as figured silks. The large, watery effect Is an orna-mentation In itself, so little or no decoration is used with the material In composing a smart costume.'- - When moire is made simply and has tailored straight lines, It Is becoming to youth; when ornamentation Is added It is get erally more becoming to a matron for afternoon wear. Moire Is moe becoming to a tall willowy woman, as the material is riot soft enough to cling closely to the figure, - and the large figure of the weave also exaggerates size. The new soft-blac- blouse effects and the dol-man sleeves are particularly effective when soft moire is used as the ma-terial. Either plalt.'d or concentrated gathered fullness generally Is used, rnd for the skirts of these moire talhred costumes often a one-side-drape effect Is pleasing, and again tunics with the new peg hip line add an unusually smart touch to the frock. Tiimming effects are simple, so most of these moire dresses-hav- a light-ed ored vest and collar of satin or a rhinestoue ornament to complete their design. "Ghost-Fear- " Strong Among Real Romany session that they loved In life a toy for a child, or a blackened teapot, broken first, for an old woman, and so on Is the usual choice. If, during a country stroll, you come to a clear-runnin- g stream or river, and notice at the bottom a collection of broken crockery, kettles, pans, and so on, you may be sure that a gypsy camp Is near, and that a gypsy has died there. On that day after the funeral of a real Homany, the relations burn all the clothes und other consumable be-longings of the dead person. Then all the crockery and utensils are broken and solemnly thrown Into the neur-es- t running water. Behind this queer custom lies "ghost-fear.- " It Is believed that, so long as any of the possessions of a dead gypsy remain intact, his ghost will "walk." und k and misfor-tune will dog the camp. Sometimes, so strong Is this superstition, even the horse of a dead gypsy Is de-stroyed. Gypsies never utter the names of the dead, and for a long time after a death will not eat or drink anything that was a favorite with the departed. This is "ghost-fear- " again. Rarely, If ever, are flowers placed on a gypsy's grave. Some little pos- - Big Speedway Planned What Is projected as the largest motor speedway In the world Is beln, planned for Sydney, Australia.

Hot Bowlder Make Bath The Currle, Indians along the Thompson river, in British Columbia, have a crude Turkish bath. They roll big bowlders Into a blazing bonfire until they are very hot, and then they roil them back Into their homes, shut the doors and after divesting them selves of clothes, lie on a cot neai the large heated stones. The effect Is that of a Turkish buth. To top off the bath the "bathers" take a quick and brief plunge Into the river for what corresponds to the cold shower of civilization. Pinks, Blues, Greens and Yellows Running Riot Pinks, blues, greens uud yellows are running riot at the moment. Not only are these vivid colors seen to the ex-clusion of the more sober and delicate shades In " frocks of plain material, but they are predominant In the flow-ered georgettes, foulards and crepes do ch'ne which are holding sway In Ion's marts. Black Is being little worn and when It appears It Is usuully as trimming to accentuate the flowered 'obrics. Younger Women Show Favor to Dark Shades youth often prefers to be seen In somber hues. The young girl loves a black evening frock, dark furs and black hats. So frequently It Is the woman who Is approaching middle age who takes refuge in bright colors. Somehow to her color means youth. She makes the mistake of putting henna on her hair and then garbing herself in red and purple gowns. Bright greens, flaming yellows and brilliant blues are most ankind. to a complexion that no longer has the glow of youth. A woman looks twice her age In the frock she chese to bring back her debutante days. White hair alone finds the colore of youth possible. The silver crowned middle-age- d woman can wear the deli-cate shades that she wore to her first parties. But she, too, should beware the frying test of bright color. Why It 1$ "I cannot understand." mused Pro-fessor Pute, "how It Is that women are almost Invariably regarded as sare-rio-r to men." .
