THE HUSKY
Lee Stewart scrutinized his nephew
Gil+tes'.pie across •the 'breakf'as't table.
lEtujoy your tubbing, old ,man?' he
asked.
"Yes, sure," aa'd Gitly dropped his
eyes before his un'cle's steady gaze.
"H'mm thought the uncle, !but
aloud he said, "There's nothing like
it for tuning you up to a good ,cross
country. I 'reeloon you .feel like a pret-
ty stiff one this 'morning, eh?"
"I'm' stiff enough," said 'Gine, with
something like a whine. "I don't want
to ski today. Do I have to?"
The owner 'of Skyline 'H'ouse and
the great'Vermont estate of which it
was the nucleus shot arather grim
look at the fifteen -year -did :boy. He
knew that 'Gilly was unaware why he
was being entertained; but every
word, ooftha I be-
ing
d, every o t boy's, was e -
b
irng observed and weighed.
"Nb, you don't have to. This is
your vacation. You are- to do as you
like; that is the 'rule of Skyline
House." But he added mentally,
"What you like determines whether
you 'return,"
There was a ,scratching at the door,
a peremptory 'bark, and 'Wild Boy,
gray 'husky dog, one quanter wolf,
was admitted. He spoke to his mas-
ter, then to his 'master's guest. He
thought he was speaking gently; but
-Gilly was afraid that he was destined
to be eaten and shrank -back. His
uncle with these steely eyes of his
noticed that too.
"He's perfectly safe," said Lee Ste-
wart- with a Much of contempt for the
lack of manly ,fibre in his nephew,
"though. like most done, or ;urn far
that matter, he'll take advantage of
timidity in anybody 11141 as a horse
MM."
Gilly felt the implied rebuke. "Sup-
pose you can't help 'being afraid—of
the horse?"
"Then eat and sleep better and ex-
ercise harder," replied the wealthy
man who, having wrested his riches
front the earth 'beyond civilized fron-
tiers knew the value of nerve. You
can prepare your body for courage as
you prepare a garden for cabbages,
Gilly. A fellow who can't face a cold
tub won't face a mob when chance
demands." A sleigh drove 'by the win-
dow, "Will you conte with me to the
station, Gilly? I've to sleet an }un-
known guest,"
"I'd rather hang a -round here: -it's
too—" The word 'cold" died on his
lips, abut his uncle understood,
"Then h,aug." he replied rather
grimly and left the •room. This neph-
ew was not promising.+,just to prove
a private suspicion of his he went up
into the boy's 'bathroom and inspect-
ed the Turkish towel. It had not been
used. '*t'mnt," he thought again, "so
that is how he enjoys cold rubbings.

SEAFORTH. ONTARIO.
Well, I've 'trained sledge dogs acid
broken colts; 'I 'might as well try my
hand at reconstructing nephews. At
least he's got the Stewart stuff in
hint. Poor Di!"
Poor tDi was his sister-in-law, lGil-
4y's mother. She had written to .Ste-
wart in'de:pair, saying, 'af-fe's turning
out so poorly, Leel No particular am-
bition, .non of the Stewart push, no
regard for the truth. I't comes from
his 'being .w'i'th a 'boy at school named
,Ronald' (Gane, the parlor -charmer
sort, not bad but tat and lazy like a
worm. That is, if 'worms are lazy. I
don't want :Gilly to be a worm, but
we do take on the ,nature of the
things we admire, don't we, Lee?"
"IR'ight as nailer" Stewart had. ex-
claimed. "We'll have to set up a
counter admiration," and his quick
mind had outlined a policy in half an
hour, a .policy that with the charact-
eristic "Stewart push" he was now
carrying out. Lee Stewart had a
deeper'reason ,for sounding ,Gil'lespie's
chanter than 'perhaps his mother
knew, 'That -same day he dispatched
this- note eo a famous ;physical direc-
tor at a .great -college:

magnetic 'athlete for the holidays, for
reasons he must not know, which are

tile =play that Lee Stewart Mel so
quietly lrci,ed, Gilly had arrived and
had proved disappointingly ,nolly-
cod 1lish. Alin Muir was about to
step off the 'train that was puffin;, in.
Lee Stewart had his hands to f+ill
with the young horses in the cutter
to notice the approach of the new ac-
tor in the play. Rut Wild Boy saw,
growled deeply, crouched, and then
with a wolfish snarl leaped at the
magnificent collie he saw before him.
You might suppose it was hate at
first sight. The engine snorted: one

Etre hills beyond.
"I love it" said Lee Stewart simp-
ly, "and I like to have people up here
who love it. It takes a little courage
to enjoy our winter, -and few have it,
I find," and the man's mind slipped to
his nephew's shrinking. "Speaking of
courage, I -wish my nephew. who is
my only other visitor for these holi-
days, could have seen you step up to
my wolf dog. That was real nerve."
Muir 'flushed and smiled. "I guess
any 'boy with your 'blood in his veins
would 'have done the same; I was
watching you handle those colts, sir."
Vie, 'I knew them, but you did .not
know my wolf."
"What we don't know we don't
fear."
"I prefer to think that what we
don't fear won't hurt as. I've noticed
that in skiing. Have you 'been on ,skis
yet?"
",Never; that's the cause of this in-
vitation, the doctor says, Bet 11 don't
understand au -ch luck."
They were driving swiftly now.
The two dogs -followed, and as 'they
had enough 'to do to keep up they re-
mained at peace with each other.
They ,reached 'S'kyline House at
four 'o'clock and had tea to 'warm -up
on.
Gilly 'had had a rather miseralbde
day of it and had slouched huto the
li'brany with e. whine ort his face, so
to speak.
'"Gillespie Stewart, of whom I was
telling you, Mr. Muir," and Lee Ste-
wart watched 'slyly the effect on the
,boy as he caught sight of his :broad -
shouldered, 'frank young giant. 'Gilly
straightened in•volun'tarily and •came
near s'miliug. Stewart was satisfied.

"There', a baloouty with two feet of

Muir understood. "By ;Great Thor

'How does it strike you, !Gaily—

"Worse," said the 'boy, +flushing,
But next morning 'Giily opened his
eyes to see Muir standing by the bal-
cony door. 14 flood of zero air fol-
lowed the opening of the door.
