A short time after Bender joined |

his head
“I'm sick, but I don't need medi

Connle left Bender's room for a lite |
tle while, and when he returned he
was surprised to find that the chief |
had slipped out. Inquiries failed to
locate him, and when Bender didn't
show up that night or the next day, |
Connie became worried.
For two nights and two days the |
search was made for Bender, but to
no ayaill, He couldn't be found. By!
this time Connie was almost fran- |
tic. Just when he was about to send !
out a general alarm for his missing In |
dian star he decided to take another |
look into Bender's room, and there
he found him huddled up in bed.
“Where have you been?’ demanded
Mack.
“Sick,” answered Bender,
“But you haven't been in your room
at the hotel,” sald Mack. “Were you
at a hospital?”
“No. 1 went away where it was
quiet and where I could be alone,”
replied Bender. “When an Indian Is
sick he doesn’t want any nolse around,
and he doesn't want medicine or doe-
tors. He just wants to let nature take
its course in curing him."
