Ned Cornet and his fiancee, Lenore,
are survivors of a shipwreck. With
Bess, a seamstress, they land on an
Island inhabited by Doomsdorf and his
Indian wife. Captain Knutzen, an-
other survivor, is shot and killed by
Doomsdorf.
Ned tries to fight the master of the
island but is no match for the big man
and is badly beaten, Doomsdorf lec-
tures h:s risoners and warns them
that et was once imprisoned in Russia
and that now he means to use his
;slaves as he himself was once treated.
Bess defies the brutal. but Lenore
8aa»ut i:nahlo u dope with the sit oinge-
ness of her position. Bess resolves to
be prepared in case opportunity of
escape is afforded them. The squaw is
always watchful. Escape seems hope-
less.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XVI.—(Cont'd.)
• Ned, deeply appalled and unspeak-
ably revolted, looked to Lenore for
directions. Her glorious head was on
Ler arms, and she shook it in utter
misery. "I can't go out there now,"
she said., "I'll just die if I do—I'n so
cold still, so weakened. I wish I had
died out there in the storm."
Ned turned once more to Dooms-
dorf. "She's telling the truth—I
think she simply can't stand to go,"
he urged gravely. "But thongh she's
absolutely in your power, them are
.some things even a beast can't do.
You just the same as gave me sour
;word—"
"There are things a beast can't do,
but I'm not a beast. There's nothing
I can't do that I want to do. I make
no promises—just the same, for this
elms, I don't think you need be afraid,
I don't take everything that comes
%long in the way of a woman. I
want a woman of thews!"
CHAPTER XVII.
There were a number of axes in the
little workroom that comprised one
end of the long cabin, and Doomsdorf
Sung three of them over his shoulder.
"Right up through here," he urged,
pointing to the little hilside behind
the cabin. Doomsdorf halted them be-
fore one of the half-grown spruce.
"Here's a good one," he commented,
"Just beyond is another. You can
each take one—cut them down with
your axes and then hack them into
two -foot lengths for the stove, Better
split each length into three pieees—
the larger ones, anyway. If you have
time, you can carry it down to the
cabin."
He took the handle of the largest
axe in his right hand; with his left he
extended the other two implements,
'blades up, to Ned and Bess. "I sup-
pose you know wove bad no experi-
ence—" Ned began.
"It doesn't matter. Just be careful
the trees don't fall on you. They
sometimes do, you know, on amateur
woodsmen. The rest is plain brute
strength and awkwardness. He
banded them each, from his pocket, a
piece of dried substance that looked
like bark. "Here's a piece of jerked
earibou each—it ought to keep life in
your bodies, And the sooner you get
gour wood cut and split, the sooner
you see any more."
Then he turned and left then to
?their toil.

Thus began a bitter hour for Ned.
He found the mere work of biting
through the thick trunk with his axe
cost him breath and strained his pa-
tience to the limit, It wasn't as easy,
as it looked. He did not strike true;
the blade made irregular white gashes
in the bark his blows seemed to lack
power. The great, sagged wound
deepened slowly.
Finally it was half through the
trunk, and yet the tree stood seeming-
ly as sturdy as ever. Reckless from
fatigue, he chopped on more fiercely
than ever, And suddenly, with the
grinding noise oz breaking wood, the
tree started to fall.
And .,t that instant Ned was face
to face with the exigency d jeaping
for his life. The tree did not fall in
the direction planned. An instant be-
fore, weary and aching and out of
breath, Ned would have believed him-
self incapable of swift and powerful
motion. As that young spruce shat-
tered clown toward him, like the club
of a giant aimed to strikeout his life,
a supernatural power seemed to snatch
hint to one side. Without realization
of the effort, the needed muscles con-
tracted -with startling force, and he
sprang like a distance umper to safety.
But he didn't jump too soon or too
far. The branebes of the tree lashed
at him. as it descended, hurling hint
headlong in the snow. And thereafter
there were three things to cause him
thought.
One of then( was the attitude of
Bess—the girl to whom, in weeks past,
ISSUE No, 32--'29
He half carried, half dragged them
into the cabin.
There Was nothing to do but ""Id »
into the .adjoining tree with hia axe
And laboriously Met the ledged tree
away, In the meantime Bess went to
work on the first tree felled, trimming
it of its limbs so to ettt it into lengths..
'Ned joined her at the work, bet
long before the .first tree was out into
fuel both were at the edge of utter
exhaustion.
Doomsdorf had seemed almost in-
credible to Neel at first. It was as if
he couldn't possibly be true; a figment
of nightmare that would vanish as
soon as he awakened. But he was real
enough now. N'othine was left to him
but the knowledge how real ho was..
He must not rest, he intuit not pause
till the work was done. The fact that
Bess had fallen, fainting, in the snow,
did not affect him; he must swing hie
axe and hew the wood. Day wee dy-
ing Grayness was creeping in front'
the sea. It was like the essence of the.
sea itself, all gray, gray like hie
dreams, 'gray like the ashes of his
hopes, lie must finish the two trees
before the darkness came down and
kept hien from seeing where to sink
the blade,
The axe swung automatically in his
arms; even sense el effort was gene
from him, The only reality that lived
in hint now, ib that misty twilight, was
the knowledge that he must ,get
through.
It was too dark to see, now, how
much of the work remained. The
night was cheating him, after all. He
struck once more at the tough length,
that lac at his feet—a piece at which',
he had already struck • uncounted
blows. He gave all ,,is waning
strength to the effort..
The length split open but the axe
slipped out of his bleeding hands,
falling somewhere in the shadows be-
yond. He must crawl after it; he
didn't know how many more lengths
there were to split. It was strange
that he couldn't keep his feet. And
how deep and still was .he night that
dropped over him!
How long he groped for the axe
handle in the snow he never knew.
But he lay still at last. Twilight
deepened about hint and the wind
wept lire a ghost risen fre'nt the sea.
The very flame of his life was burn-
ing down to embers.
Thus it game about that Doomsdorf
missed the sound of his axe against'
the wood. Swinging a lantern, a ti-
tanic figure among the snow -laden
trees, he tramped down to investigate.
Bess, semi-conscious again, wakened
when the lantern light danced in her
eyes. But it took him some little time
t osee ed's dark form in the snow.
The reason was, it was lying be-
hind a mighty pile of split fuel. The
light showed thtt only gree., branches,
too small to be of value, remained of
the two spruce, And Doomsdorf grunt-
ed, a wonclering oath, deep in his
throat.
They had been faithful slaves. Put-
ting his mighty arm around them,
each in turn, he half carried, half
dragged them into the warmth of the
cabin.
CHAPTER XVIII.
Ned was spared the misery and de-
spair that overswept Doomsdorf's',
cabin the first night of his imprison-
ment. His master dropped him on the
floor by the stove, and there he lay,
seemingly without life, the whole night
through.
Yet he was not always deeply in-
sensible. Sometimes he would waken
with a knowledgeof wracking pain in
his muscles, and sometimes cold would
creep over him. Once he came to him-
self with the realization that some one
was administering to him. Soft, gentle
hands were removing his wet, outer
garments, rolling him gently over in
order to get at them, slipping off his
wet shoes and stockings. A great
tenderness swept over him, and he
smiled wanly in the lantern light.
"Lenore " the man whispered
feebly.
But there was no spoken answer out
of the shadow at the edge of the lan-
tern light. Perhaps there was the
faint sound, like a gasp, almost as if a
terrible truth that was for an instant
forgotten had been recalled.
(To be continued.)
he had shown hardly decent courtesy:
the same girl whom in childish fury
he had cursed the bitter, eventful
night just gone. Above the roar of
the falling tree he heard her quick,
half -strangled gasp of horror.
The sound seemed to have the quali-
ties that made toward a perfect after-
image; because in the silence that fol-
lowed, as he lay in the soft snow, and
the crash of the fallen tree echoed into
nothingness, it still lingered, every
tone perfect and okra, in his mind's
ear, There Was no denying its tone
of ineffable dismay. Evidently Bess
was of a forgiving disposition; in spite
of his offense of the past night she had
evidently no desire to see him crushed
into jelly under that giant's blow.
Bess was staring wideeyed into his
face; and he smiled quietly in reassur-
ance. "Not hurt at all," he told her.
Quickly he climbed to his feet. "See
that you don't do the same thing that
I did,'
He walked with her to her fallen
axe, then inspected the deep cut sho
had already made in her tree.
"You're doing the same thing I did
sur enough," he observed. "The tree
will fall your way and crush you. Let
me think."
A moment later he took his axe and
put in a few more strokes in the same
place. It was the danger point, he
thought: a deeper cut might dell the
tree prematurely. Presently he cross
ed to the opposite side, signaled Bess
out of danger, and began to hack the
tree again, malting a cut somewhat
Awe that started on the other side
of the trunk. He chopped sturdily,
and in a moment the tree started to
da11, safely and in an opposite direc-
tion,
Ile uttered some small sound of
triumph; but it was a real tragedy to
have the tree fall against a nearby
tree and lodge. Again he had failed
e foresight.

"Holding Up" the Motorist
There are certain qualities that run
in familiee, and the devising• of clever
ideas for getting 'honey for hospitals.
seems to be one of thein, . For the
Hon. A, 11, Holland -Hibbert has Just
suggested a "Hold-up Day," on which
motorists would be asked to contrib-
ute to the expense' of accident oases
in hospital. Acrd Mr. Holland -Hibbert
is the brother of Lord Knutsford,
chairman of the London Hospital, who
has raised more money for the work
of our hospital than any other man.
If the "Hold-up Day" idea is adopt-,
ed, it will probably do something to
solve the difficulties of which many
country hospitals have been com-
plaining during recent years. They '
have to take in accident eases as a
result of motor smashes, and in many.
instances they receive no payment.
This causes financial trouble—and
it also may mean that cases of local
people—perhaps subscribers to the
hospital—who live In the district have
to be turned away.
A generous response to a epeclal
appeal to motorists might help to • sol-
ve, this difficultly by enabling badly
needed extensions to be put In band.
Wisdom
Young men are as apt to think
themselves wise enough, as drunken
men are to think themselves sober
enough, 'They look upon Spirit to be
a much better thing than Experience;
whiob they call Coldness. They are
but half mistaken; for though spirit
without Experience is dangerous, Fix-
perienee without Spirit is 150511id and
ineffective —Chesterfield,
Surprises
There is no perlod of life at which
we ought to say' that there are no
more glad surprises for 'lee in the
future. Life is hard enough, but not
eo hard as some 'would make it, and
Its rewards come to 'those who have
worked for them more often than
many would have us believe,—W.
