His powerful thighs, made iron hard in these last bitter weeks, drove him out and up in an offensive assault, His long | hody seemed to meet that of the wolf | full in the air, Then they rolled to- gether into the drifts, The wolf wiggled free, sending home one vicious bite into the flesh Just under the arm; and for a breath hoth contestants seemed to be play- ing some weird, pinwheel game in the snow, The silence of the everlasting wild was torn to shreds by the noise of battle-—the frantic snarling of the wolf, the wild shouts of this mad- | man who had just found his strength, Then for a moment bhoth contestants seemed to lie motionless in the snow. The wolf lay like a gre‘t hound be- fcre the fireside—fore fegs stretched in front, body at full length. Ned | lay at one side, the animal's hody be- tween his knees, one arm around his ©'neck, the other thrusting back his great head. The whole issue of life L or death, victory or defeat, was sud- denly immensely simplified. 1t de- pended solely on whether or not Ned had the physical might to push back the shaggy head and shatter the ver-| tebrae. | Time stood still.’ A thousand half- crazed fancies flew through Ned's mind, His life blood seémed to be starting from his pores, and his heart was tearing itself to shreds in his| breast. But the wolf was quivering now, Its eyes were full of strange, | unworld fire. And then Ned gave a last terrific wrench. | A bone broke with a distinct crack in the ‘utter silence. And as he fell forward spent, the great white form sacked down and went limp in his arms, XXIIIL In a little while Ned stripped the pelt from the warm-body of the wolf and continued down his line of traps. He was able to think more coherently now and consider methods and de- tails. 'And by the same. token . of clear thought, he was brought face to face with the fact of the almost in- superable obstacles in his path. Plans for freedom first of all seem- | ingly had to include Doomsdorf's dedth. That was the first essential, and the last. Could they succeed in striking the life from their master, they could wait in the cabin until the trader Intrepid should toueh their island ‘in the spring. The difficulty lay in finding an opening of attack. Doomsdorf's rifle . Was never loaded except when it was in Qis arms, and he wore his pistol in hid'velt, day and night. For all his fhopelessness, Ned had noticed, half inadvertently, that he always took precautions against a night attack. The squhw slept on the outside of their cot and would be as difficult to 1, pass without arousing.as a sleeping " dog. The cabin itself was boited, not'to be entered without waking both | occupants; and the three prisoners of | course, slept in the newer cabin. Ned was working that part of the line from his Twelve-Mile cabin over | the ridge toward the Forks cabin his old rendezvous with Bess. How to Stop Sour Stomach Chronic With Many People—Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets#Bring Quick Comfort—Swecten and Stop Acid, Sour Risings and Such Dyspeptic Distress When the fact is considered that even careful people, those who fol- low diet rules, get attacks of indi- gestion, no argument is needed to recommend the best means of rélief. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are . used by lawyers, doctors, teachers, by busi- ness men, high livers, society women, industrial workers, clerks, and the worst abused stomachs in the world, those of a host of travelers. For thirty years people have learn- ed that they may eat what they like or what is set before them, and no matter what the condition of the stomach, if due to dyspepsia, these wonderful taglets stop gassiness and dour risings, they give the stomachy the alkaline effect which overcomes acidity and thus they either avoid distress after eating or else they quiekly relieve it.

Here and there it ‘was gashed with crev- ices—those deep glacier chasms into which a stone falls in silence. For a moment Ned regarded it. with con- siderable displeasure. He decided to take a chance. He removed his snowshoes and ventured carefully out upon the ice. It was easier than it looked. His moccasins clung very well. Steadily gaining confidence, he walked at a faster pace. The slope was not much on this side, the glacker ending in an abrupt cliff many hundred feet in height, so he felt lttle need of espe- cial precaution, It was, in fact, the easiest walking that he had since his arrival upon the island, so he decided not to turn off clear until he reached the high ground just to one side of the ice cliff. He crawled ‘down a series of shelves, picked his Way | about a jagged promontory, and | fetched up at last at the edge of a dark crevice scarcely 50 feet from the edge of the snow. The crevice was not much oyer five | WATCH THAT FINGER Broken and bruised skin may lead to infection.

There | was still hope of life, He fetched us, as if by a miracle, on an icy shelf ten feet helow the mouth of the crev- ice—with sheer walls rising on each side, XXIV. | Ned knew what fear was, well| enough, as he lay in the darkened | chasm, staring up at the white line of the crévice above him. The shelf on which he was scarcely wider than had his fallen | body, at an sheer wall had he come to rest upon it. It was perhaps 50 feet long, practically on a tevel all the way, The wall was sheer for ten feet above him; beyond the shelf was only the impenetrable darkness of the crevice, extending ap- parently into the bowels of the earth, Very cautiously, in imminent dan- | ger of pitching. backward into the abyss, he climbed to his feet, He was a tall man, but his hands, reach- ing up, did not come within two feet | of the ledge. And there was nothing ! whatever for his hands to cling to. If only there were irregularities in the ice. With a surge of hope he thought of his axe, This tool, however, had either fal- len into the crevice or had dropped from his shoulder and lay on the ice above, Rut there remained his clasp knife, He drew it carefully from his pocket, | Already he felt the icy chill of the | fingers_of death itself. He must lose no time in going to work. He/ began to cut, two feet above the ledge, | a sharp-edged hole in the ice. i He finished the cut at last, then| started on another a foot above. He hewed out a foothold with great care. He did not forget that the hand- holds, to which his fingers must cling, were yet to be made, They had to| be finished with even greater skiil than the footholds. Very wisely, he turned to them next. He made the first of them as high as he could reach. Then he put one in about a foot below. Three more footholds were put in at about 12- inch intervals between. Placing the knife between his teeth, he put his moccasin Into the first foothold and pulled himself up. Jt did not take long, however, to| convince him that the remaining work bordered practiealy on the im- possible. These holes in the ice were The fingers slipped over them; it was al- most impossible to cling on with both hands, much less one. But clinging with all his might, he tried to free his right hand to procure his knife. He made it at last, and at a fright- ful cost of nervous energy succeeded fn cutting some sort of a gash in the Standing s0 close he couid not look up, it was And because life lay this way'and no other, he put the blade once more between his teeth, reached his right hand into the hole, and tried to pull himself up again, But disaster, bitter and complete, followed that attempt. His numbing hands failed to hold under the strain, and he slipped all the way back to Something rang sharply against the ice wall, far below him.
