With them Is Bess Gilbert, a seamstress. The Island Is occupied by a brute named Doorasdorf and hla Indian wife. The master of the island takes Ned and the girls prisoners and bids them build a cabin for themselves. He gives them an old stove. Lenore 1* allowed to remain with the squaw and help with the housework, but Bcsa and bled are made to labor until they both fall unconscious. When the cabin is completed Doomsdorf announces that he means to have his slaves do his winter trapping for him. Bess and Ned are started on different routes. Ned has a fight with a bear. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY Ned did not wait to catch the full force of that blow. His powerful thighs, made iron hard in these last bitter weeks, drove trim out and up In an offensive assault. His long body seemed to meet that of the wolf full in the air. Then they rolled together into the drifts. The wolf wriggled free, sending home one vicious bite into the fle3h lust under the arm; and for a breath both contestants seemed to be play ing some weird, plnwheel 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 fiad just found his strength. Then for a moment both contest ants seemed to lie motionless in the snow. The wolf lay like a great hound before the fireside—fore legs stretched in front, body at full length. Ned lay at one side, the ani mal’s body between his knees, one arm around his neck, the other thrusting back the great head. .The whole issue of life or death, victory or defeat, was suddenly immensely simplified. It defended solely on whether or not Ned had the physical might to push back the shaggy head and shatter the vertebrae. Time stood still. A thousand half crazed fancies flew through Ned’s mind. His life blood seemed to be starting from his pores, and bis heart was tearing Itself to shreds in his breast. But the wolf was quivering now. Its eyes were full of strange, unworldly fire. And then Ned gave a lust, terrific wreneh. A bone broke with a distinct crack in the utter silence. And as be fell forward, spent, the great white form Blacked down and went limp in his arms. XXIII IN a little while Ned stripped .the pelt from the warm body of the wolf and cqntlnued down his line of traps. He was able to think more coherently now and consider methods and details. And by the same token of clear thought, he was brought face to face with the tect of the al most insuperable obstacles in his path. Plans for freedom first df all seem ingly had to include Doomsdoifs death. That was the first essential, and the last. Could they succeed in striking the life from tbeir master, they could wait in the cabin until the trader Intrepid should touch 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 his arms, and he wore his pistol in his belt, day and night For all his hopelessness, Ned had notioed, half Inadvertently, that he always took precautions against a night at tack. The squaw slept on the out side of their cot and would be as difficult to pass without arousing as a sleeping dog. The cabin Itself was bolted, not to be entered without waking both occupants; and the STATE POULTRY SHOW IS ATTRACTING MUCH INTEREST It Is Expected Tlwt 2,000 Chickens WBli Re Entered in tlie Show This Year. ' Greensboro, N. Sept. 18.—The official North Carolina state poultry show will be conducted here December 5. 6 und 7 under the auspices of the Central Carolina Poultry Association and the North On volina Poultry Asso ciation und officials of the two organiza tions already are making extensive plans for the show, which they say is expected to be the best in every respect ever put on in this state. More than 1,200 fowls were exhibited at the show conducted by the two poultry association this year. The num poultry associations last year. The num be increased to at least 2.000, according to executives of the two associations who met here recently to make pre «■» i-n'« «■ THY SULPHUR ON AN ECZEMA SKIN Coot* Little and Overcome* Trouble Almott Over Night ~ • Any breaking out of the skin, even fiery, itching eczema, can be quickly overcome by applying Mentho-Sulphur, declares a noted skin specialist. Be cause of its germ destroying properties, this sulphur preparation instantly brings ease Iron skin irritation, soothes and heals the eczema right up and leaves the skin clear and smooth. It seldom fails to relieve the torment without delay. Sufferers from skin trouble should obtain a small jar of Rowles Mentho-Sulphur from any good druggist and use it uke cold cream. 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. He was somewhat late in crossing tbe range today. The blazed trail took him around the shoulder of the ridge, clear to the edge of a little, deeply seamed glacier such as crowns so many of the larger bills in the far North. Few were the wild creatures that traversed this icy desolation, so his trap line bad been laid out around the gla&er, following the blazed trail in the scrap timber. But today the long way round was particularly grievous to his spirit. More than a: mile could be saved by leaving the timber and climbing across the ice, aqd only a few sets, none of which had ever proved especially produc tive. would be missed. Without an instant’s hesitation he turned from the trail straight over the snowy summit toward the cabin. The cut-off would save him the an noyance of making camp after dark. And since he had climbed it once be- HIS LONG BODY SEEMED TO MEET THAT OF THE WOLF FULL IN THE AIR. , fore, be scarcely felt the need of 1 extra caution. The crossing, however, was not 1 quite the same os on the previous oo- ] casion. Before the Ice had been cov ered, completely across, with a heavy snowfall, no harder to walk on than the open barrens. He soon found now that the snow prevailed only to the summit of the glacier, and the deecent beyond the summit had been swept clean by the winds. Below him stretched a half-mile of glare ice. ivory white like the fangs of some fabulous beast of prey. Here and there it was gashed with cre vices—those deep glacier chasms into which a stone tells in silence. For a moment Ned regarded ft with con siderable displeasure. He decided to take a chance, He removed his snowshoes and ventured carefully out upon the toe. It was easier than ft looked. His moccasins clung very well. Steadily gaining confidence, he walked at a faster pace. The slope was not much on this side, the glacier ending In on abrupt cliff many hundred feet in height, so he felt little need of espe cial precaution. It was, in fact, the easiest walking that he had since hia arrival upon the island, so he decided not to turn off clear until he reached the high ground fust to one side of the ice oUff. 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 60 feet from tbe edge of the snow. 1 The crevice was not much over liminary -arrangements for this year’s show- Jaeob Eberly, of Dallastowiu I’a.. aikl Chili-leu Xixon. of Washington, N.

He ebuld leap it at a standing. jump: with a running start be could bound ten feet beyond. He was tired, eager to get to camp —and this wan the zero hour.

Than ho pitched forward into the ere vice. He was not to die at once. Theca was still hope of life. He fetched up, as ff by a miracle, on an icy shelf ten feet below the mouth of this crevice—with sheer walls rising oa each side. XXXV NED knew what fear was, weO enough, as he lay in the dark- 1 ened chasm, staring up at qhe j white line of the crevice above Mae The sheif on which he had fallen was scarcely wider than hla body, and only because it projected at an upward incline from the sheer wall had be come to rest upon it. It was perhaps 50 feet long, practically on a level all the way. The wall was sheer for ten feet above him; beyond the shelf was only tbe impenetrable dark ness of the crevice, extending ap parently into the bowels of tbe earth.
