THE STORY
CIIAPTK)'. I. As Alan Garth, pros
pector. Is preparing to learva lor bis
.mining claim in the Far North, a plane
lands at the airways emergency sta
tion. In It as Burton Ramill, million
aire mining magnate, his daughter. Lil
ith. and Vivian lluxby. pilot and min
ing engineer. Believing him to be only
an ignorant prospector, the men offer to
make an air trip-to Girth's claim, al
though they refer to the platinum-bearing
ore as nearly "worthless." Lilith
Kamlll, product of the Jazi age. plainly
ahows her contempt fr Garth.
CHAPTER II. Through Garth's guid
tua nlnn innn r.iphpa thft flalm
site. Huxby and Ramill. after making
several tests, assure Garth hia claim Is
nearly valueless, but to "encourage"
young prospectors they are willing to
take a chance In Investing a small
amount. Sensing the treachery that
lies ahead Garth secretly visits the
plane and removes a small part from
the motor.
The girl's smoldering rase flared
ont at him: "You scoundrel! Decoy
us Into this beastly hole, and then
turn our plane adrift. You cowardly
sneak! Everything drifting away In
it and nil the food and wine. Oil.
d n! What am I going to do? I'll
starve !"
Her father looked at Garth with th
first sign of concern that he had
shown. "Yes, that's it. You might
have thought of her. A girl so deli
cately reared! I say nothing as to
myself; It's all in the game. But a
lady to drag her down Into the raw
like this! Marooning her to starve in
the kogs!"
Garth looked from father to daugh
ter. "A lady, did you say? Oh, yes, to
be sure a dainty, refined lady, who
curses and drinks and joins In schemes
to bilk o supposedly simple bush vaga
bond out of his fortune."
"Pah!" she scoffed. "Whining be
cause we would not let you foist your
self on us as a gentleman. As for
your twaddle about that claim, mines
are treasure trove. They belong to
whoever Is clever enough to get hold
of them,"
"Hlght-o, my lady," Garth approved.
"Which leaves only the small matter
of food and drink to be considered.
You'll be able to chew moose meat, I
fancy, after you've fasted off some of
your fastidiousness."
Indifferent whether or not the girl
and her father followed him, Garth
started to back-trail through the lower
growth of spruce trees.
Where the spring rill came burbling
over ledges down to the rocky shore,
he halted in a email clearing. Here
had been his camp on his previous
lslt to the valley. Ten feet up the
branch-trimmed trunks of four closely
grouped birch trees, a tattered moose
hide hung over the edge of a pole plat
form. Garth glanced up at the platform.
"Wolverines have robbed the food
cache. But there's plenty more meat
on the hoof. While I go for some, you
two will start gathering wood."
Miss RamlU's nerves were on edge.
She snapped at him hysterically : "You
insolent bully! Don't you dare to try
to give me orders."
Her father had squatted down on the
warm rock, tired out by his day's ex
ertions. Garth spoke to him :
"Too much Is enough. The condi
tion was that all three of you would
do as I thought best. lluxby promptly
tried again to bluff me. Now your
daughter balks,"
Mr. Ramill raised his down-sagged
head. "You'll not be able to say that
of me. young man. I stand by your
terms. j. always play to win. But no
one can truthfully claim I ever welch
or revoke. I will take your orders, and
so will Vivian, now that he has had
time to realize the situation."
"How about your daughter?"
"I'll leave that to you. If you can
control her, you'll be doing more than
I have ever been able to do."
Garth met the disdainful gaze of the
tfrl with a smile. "So your father
turns yon over to me. my lady. Let
hasten to assure you, I beg to de
cline the honor."
Ah, Indeed!"
"Yes, rn let old Mother Nature
Pnk yon oil yon come to yonr
senses." "
Her blue eyes flared with scorn. "Oh,
you you D n!"
"Better save your energy," he ad
vised, "You'll need It an, unless your
Pride stoops to the aqn aw work of
amp Bre tending. Smoke drives off
Insects. For another thing, no wolf,
wolverine or lynx, or even a grizzly,
wia venture close to a fire. Think
that over. Mr. Ramill. you have your1
Patent lighter."
He swung away between the spruces
without waiting for any reply. Left
alone with her exhausted father, the
6'rl might come to realize how utterly
she had crashed out of her soft and
luxurious civilized environment
A girl whom even her father had
beo unable to control 1 That had been
vldent from the first She was a
adjj spoiled product of the Jazz-age
willful, arrogant, utterly selflsli, !"t

The Splash That Followed Told
Him a Moose Had Caught His
Scent.
tunately she had shown herself no less
hard physically than mentally. Other
wise he would have played the game
In a different way. No weak-muscled
woman could make lh.it rravois m the
Mackenzie.
As for her father, he had only him
self to thank. A pirate should expect
to take his chances. lie might be got
ten out to the river, and he might not.
That depended upon his heart. Soft
muscles could be hardened. Not so a
weak heart,
No question as tc the girl and Hux
uy, If they obeyed orders. They could
make It.
A cra3h lu the alders broke in upon
Garth's thoughts. The splash that fol
lowed told him a moose had caught his
scent and taken to the lake. To have
run to the bank and shot the swim
ming beast would have been easy.
Only, he had no canoe or raft, and the
water here was rather deep offshore.
He stalked down through the timber.
For the first hundred feet or so out
from the shore thickets, willows grew
along both sides of the low ledge. A
peer through the foliage showed the
Immense palmate antlers of an old bull
moose.
Garth flattened down on the moss
covered dyke and crawled away from
the bank. Shoreward, on the other
side, he Caught sight of a slight move
ment among the willows. He rose on
his knees and swung up his rifle.
Though he was still screened by the
brush alongside the ledge, his quick
movements sent a strong whiff of tnan
seent downwind.
With loud snorts of alarm, two cow
moose, a calf, and a young bull heaved
up among the willows less than a
dozen yards apart. They started to
plunge forward out of the thicket.
Garth's first shot dropped the calfless
cow with a bullet through the head,
His second bullet glanced off the base
of the bull's left antler. Partly stunned
by the shock, the bull swerved side
ways, only to drop In his tracks, shot
through the heart.
Silently as he had stalked out the
ledge, Garth returned to solid ground.
He knew that the snorting, bawling
moose in the pools would soon quiet
down and return to their lily-pond feed
ing. The only requirement was for
him to keep out of sight and either
across or down wind from the stupid
beasts. They had not learned to fear
human hunters.
A few steps along the bank brought
him to a game trail through the thick
ets. He laid down his rifle and waded
out to the dead bull. The bed lay on
a down-beaten mat of willow stems.
Garth at once set to work with hia
knife.'.'..:.
. To dress out a thousand-pound ani
mal Is no light task, even under the
best of conditions. Garth thought noth
ing of It. All the hide within reach
slid free to the quick draw of hia
curved knife blade. With belt-ax and
knife he cut off the antlered head, then
the upper foreleg and hlndquarter. Af
ter that he was able to heave the car-.'
cass over by the leverage of the other
When he had finished with the bull,
he went to the cow. She weighed per
haps 200 pounds less, and was there
fore easier to dress out.
With the two skins and all the meat
ashore, he took a dip in a clear pool
and washed his buckskins. As he
sloshed out of the willows In the wet
garments, he saw Miss Ramill staring
through her head net at the eight big
legs. He had hooked them on the
stubs of spruce limbs. Her gaze low-,
ered from the other raw moose prod
ucts that were piled on one of the
hides. She turned from them loath
Ingly. "Faugh! What a sickening mess!
Have you started a packing plant?"
'"The packing is Just about to start."
he replied. "Are you too feeble to
carry this rolled skin? Its the Hsrhter
one."
"That filthy thing? You may be sure
I'm not so feeble-minded as t touch
any of your butcher mess."
"Very well. Only remember. It's your
own choice, sister.'
He bagged the contents of the bull
hide, slung it on his back, picked up
his rifle, and headed for camp. The
girl looked from him to the folded
moose cow kln, hesitated, flushed an
grily, and followed, empty-handed.
While still some distance from the
rill, he whiffed a tang of wood smoke.
He quickened his step. It gave him a
pleasant surprise. After all, the girl
seemed to have given in, at least part
ly. He turned to her with a friendly
look She m.-i ii with a scornful
smile.
They i-jaie to tae opening where
Garth trimmed pair of green wil
low spits, opened the tnoosehide, and
cut two slices of liver, lie put a slice
on each spit, and started to broil thetn
over the coals. With a look of dis
gust. Miss Ramill turned her back and
sat down on the rill bank.
Before long ihe broiling liver began
to send out an appetizing odor. The
girl's nose weiu up for an involuntary
sniff. Garth niei the intent look of her
father, and allowed his left eyelid to
flutter sli-litly. Another turn of the
spits completed Ihe broiling. He
handed one of them to Mr. Ramill.
The millionaire lifted his headnet
to take a gingerly nibble at his ho:
meat. . Ills heavy tace brightened with
h surprised smile. He smacked his
lips and hit off a large mouthful. Ac
the sound, his daughter jerked around,
tiarlh u.is liitin- i 1 1 1 Hie oilier piece
of liCI'
The girl ci'omi ,im i ,er indignation:
"You gre if pigs! W here's my piece?"
t.'anli pointed Ik the moon-hide.
"Help yourself."
He met her lurtoiis look with coo!
indifference, and went on eating. L' li
able to blast him. she turned to her
father.
"I'll lake ours.' Had, You've had
two bites. It .will not lake you long
to cook another piece. Make it three."
At that. Garth swung around be
tween father' and daughter.
"Mr. Kamlll, we'll settle Ibis right
now; Yoii said you'd leave her to me.
I cooked that meat for you. She will
cook her own meat, or go without."
The older 'man. sat for several mo
ments considering the matter. He
then raised Ills piece of meat and re
sumed his meal. 1,111th Ramill stared
at him, her eyes wide.
"My own father! But wait ' till
Vivian conies back!"
He winced. Garth Ignored her.
"Better lie down and rest. nir.
You've doae enough for a while. I'm
going to get yott Into hard training as
soon as possible. But we must not
overdo it at the start. Might mean a
breakdown."
"I am tired, boy and hungry as a
shark. Could eat' all the rest of that
liver."
"Not now. You'll rest, do some
work, and then get another slice. Call
this valley one of those physical cul
ture sanitariums where the tired busi
ness man is worked and dieted back
Into fit condition."
"I have yet to agree lo such train
ing, Garth.''
"Take your choice. It you refuse,
I give you my word you'll never reach
the Mackenzie. I might back-pack you
in some places; you don't Weigh much
over two hundred. Happens, though,
I'm not a donkey: You'll go on your
own feet."
"Very well. I'm me on tlieui."
Obedient to directions, - the big man
stretched out flat upon the sunwaroieJ
rock. Garth turned about to pull the
moosehide and what was upon It into
the shade of a birch.
Miss Ramill thrust in front .of 'him
and seized ills knife. She slashed at
the .liver.".' The blade was razor-sharp-Her
angry stroke not only cut throug'i
the liver, it slit the moosehide as well.
Garth said nothing. Enough tor him
'that hunger had humbled the girl's
pride. She had learned ner first les
son. Long hour. had passed since her
finicky breakfasting on wine :ind deli
catessen In .'the. cabin of the monoplane,
far over on the Mackenzie, She wa
fairly ravenous,
Her rouged lips twitched with an
ticipation as she held the spitted slice
of liver Close upon the coals of the
low-burnt fire. Well satisfied. Garth
hung the remaining liver, the tongues
and muffles under the cache platform.
A smudge-fire on the ground below
the meat drove off the flies.
Miss RamlU's only thought had been
for her food. She did not think to
put fresh fuel on the cook-fire. When
It died down to embers, she jerked the
partly barnt, inwardly rare slice of
liver from the charred willow spit
There was now no finicky fastidious
ness about her eating. She thrust off
her headnet and sank her teeth into
the piece ot liver with the gusto of a
hungry boy. Bite followed bite In
rapid succession.
CHAPTER IV
The Whip Hand.
The girl licked her fingers and
turned to stare covetously at the pieces
of moose dangling in the smudge-fire
smoke. She spoke to Garth' almost
civilly:
"I've no need to rest like Dad. Do
I have to wait for another piece?"
"Certainly not. But you've let the
cook-tire go out. Keep this one going,
and you can use it. Better cut another
spit Mind the knife edge, if you don't
want to lose a finger."
She showed she could be deft enough
when she chose. One stroke of the
knife hacked off a willow twig, twj
cuts sharH'ned the end. Grasping the
bottom of the uncut second liver, she
sliced up lengthwise, all the way to
the rawhide thong. She poked the
green wood from the near edge of the
tire, piled ou dry sticks, and crouched
down to hold her spit over the blaze.
Garth had at once begun to make
catgut. It would be needed to sew the
moccasins. He was Intently at work,
and the girl was still more iweiuly
eyeing her meat, when lluxby rani"
striding between the spruces.
The once elegaut engineer was
smeared with mud from his uiidbody
down to where the rock-milk water of
the ford had drenched the bog slime
from his shoes atul leather aviator
trousers. Snagj hud scratched his
flying jacket and even lorn through
one sleeve.
Worst of all. his lore face and neck
was a swollen mass of mosquito-bite
ft-J. A.

Your Hands "
'.veils and the bleeding wounds of
(leer-lly stings. 'I'll- skin had already
begun o pc IT and discolor.
At sight of ihe man's condition,
Garth picked up his rille. Kven the
inosi cold-blooded, calculating schemer
can lie tortured into crazed violence.
Miss Ramill glanced up from her
cooking, iiinl uttered a startled cry.
It awakened her father from his doze.
He sat erect to start at lluxby.
"My 0 d, Vivian, what's happened?
You look like something the cat
brought home." , ....
