the traps and he did not no hust-

The winter passed. and spring
came, and still Bares continued
to haunt his old trails. even going
now and then over the old trap-
line as tar as the first oi the two
, cabins. The traps were rusted and
sprung new: the thawing snow
tdisclosed bones and iesthers be-
tween their Jaws: under the dead-
iells were remnants of fur. and
out on the ice at the lakes were
picked skeletons of tones and
wolves that had taken the poison-
baits. The last snow went. The
swollen streams sang in the for-
ests and canyons. The grass
turned green. and the drst flowers
came.

Nepeese to come home! He

he sprang into the pool and whiaed

spring passed and summer came.
there settled upon him slowly the
gloom and misery oi utter hope-

\now. and even the hakneesh vines
glowed like red flre in the woods.
Patches ot green were beginning
to hide the charred heap where the
cabin had stood. and the blue-
flower vines that covered the prin-

the elders and stood at last close
to the spot where he had flrst .

The surface oi the pond was undu- '
lsting slightly; two or three heads
popped up: he saw the torpedo-like
wake of an old beaver towing a
stick close to the opposite share-— a»;

young elders. He felt growing in "‘3 1“

resttulness. a relaxation from the
long strain of the lonely months
during which he had waited for
Nepeese. With a long breath he
lay down among the elders. with
his head inst enough exposed to
give him a clear view. As the
sun settled lower the pond became :‘

it was early in August when
Bares left the Gray Loon. He had
no objective in view. But there
was still left upon his mind. like
the delicate impression of um and
shadow on a negative.,the memo-

and happenings that he had almost
