L, [ HE ISLE RETRIBUTION NEGIN HERE TODAY Ned Cornet, his flancee, Lenore, and 4 seamsiress, are survivors of a #hipwreck, They take refuge on an Island inhabited by & man named Doomsdorf and his Indian wite, The master of the island tells Ned and the Firls that they must be his slaves, Lenore 1s too weak to do any work o the burden falls entirely on the | shoulders of Ress and Ned, | The prisoners bulld a cabin and Doomsdorf gives them an old stove, An 800N as the cabin “is completed Ned and Bess are informed that they | are to learn to be trappers, l.enon‘ In allowed to remain with the squaw and help her with the housework. Dess and Ned are given separate routes, The squaw starts Bess on her way and Doomadorf Instructs Ned, | — NOW GO ON WITH THE, STORY ‘The dam itself didn't appear to he A natural formation of rock, It looked more Itke driftwood, hut it was | Inconceivable that mere drift could be" piled in this ordered way. | “It must be a beaver dam,” he sald, | “You're gight for once,” Doomsdorf agreed, “A big beaver weighs about 50 pounds—and he's about the handlest hoy to trap there is. Youw’ll wonder | what the purpose of these dams ls, | As far as I can make out, simply to keep -the water at one level, Yon | know these little streams rise and fall | like the tides. They've learned, in | a few hundred thousahd years of thelr | development, that It doesn't pay to| build a nice house and then have the | creek come up and wash it away and | drown them out.” | Doomsdorf explained that a trap| set. on the house itself o alarmed | the animals that the entire colony was | likely to desert the dam. Instead, | the trap was set just below the sur-| face of the water at a landing—a | place where the bheaver went in and | out of the water in the course of| their daily work. | Doomsdorf still marched in his| easy, swinging galt; and cver it was a | harder fight to keep pace. Yet Ned ; dared not lag behind. His master's| temper was ever uncertain in these | long, tired hours of afternoon. | Tired out, weakened, aching in every muscle and not far from the ab- | solute limit of exhaustion, Ned stag- gered to the cabin door at last. He had put out all the traps he had brought from the homa cabin: thence his course lay alonig a blazed trail that skirted the edge of the narrow | timber beit, over the ridge to the forks cabin. Doomsdorf entered, then in the half-light stood regarding the younger man who had followed him in. Ned tried to stand erect. not yield to the almost irresistible impulse to throw himself down on the floor and rest. He dared not risk Doomsdort's anger; how did he know what instruments of torture| the latter's satanic ingenuity might | contrive in this lonely cabin! Nor | was' his mood to be trusted tonight. His gray eyes shone with suppressed excitement; and likely enough ‘he would be glad of an excuse for some | diversion to pass the hours pleasantly. 1t was very lonely and strange here, in the open, in the full sweep of | the wind over the barren lands. " But Ned wasn't aware of Dooms- dorf’s plans. The great blond man stretehed his arms, yawning, but- toned his coat tighter about him, and | turned to go. “I’Il see yvou in about| five days,” he remarked laconically. Ned wakened abruptly from his revery. “You mean-—you aren't go- ing to show me anything more?" “I've shown you how to set your traps, for every kind of an animal,” Doomsdorf said. “You ought to bb able to do the rest. By the time you conie around, we'll likely lm\r\’ freezing weather—that means you'll | have to thaw.out your animals before | you skin them “Here and here and There’—he paused, to put in Ned’s hands a clasp | hunting knife, razor sharp, a small| pocket hone to whet his tools, and a | Jight axe that had been hanging back of the stove—‘arc some things _\ou'll) need. The time will come when you'll need snowshoes, too. There's | a pair on the rafters. Now I'm going | to tramp back to the cabin to spend | the night—in more agreeable com- pany.” I'or a moment the two men stood regarding each other in absolute si- Jence. Then Doomsdorf's keen ecars, cager for such sounds, caught the. whisper of Ned's troubled breathing. Presently a leering smile flashed through the blond beard. “You mean—you and Lenore will be r————————— ASPRIN He must | | Say “Bayer” and Insist! | Unless you see the name “Bayer” on package or an tabMts you are not getting the genuine Bayer product preseribed by physicians over twenty- two years and proved safe by millions for Headache Lumbago Colds Toothaehe Earache Rheumatism Neuralgia Pain, Pain Accept “Bager Tablets of Aspirin” only.
