"Asleep, Joan?" ho asked,
"Almost, father. Won't you please
come soon?"
"After I smoke," he said. "Am jrotl

"Yea. I'm so Ured-and-sleepy-"
Pierre laughed softly. In the darkness
he was gripping at his throat

would not hurt them, but he know also
that with PIcrro Itadlsson something ter

near to them. Ho wanted tho man out

and watch him.
In tho tent there was silence. Nearer
to him than before camo Gray WolfB cry.
Each night she was calling earlier and
coming closer to the camp. He wanted
her very near to him tonight, but he did
not oven whmo In response. He dared not

metallic and from far In tho North there
came faintly a crisping moaning sound,
like steel slclgh-runners running over

steadily and swiftly colder.
Tonight Gray Wolf did not compass
herself by the direction of the wind. She
followed like a sneaking shadow over
tho trail Plerro Itadlsson had made, and
when Kazan heard her again, long after

and his body rigid, save for a curious

CHAPTER VII
OUT OF TUB BLIZZARD
IT waa dawn when the baby snuggled
close to Joan's want breast and
awakened her with Its pry of hunger. Sho
opened her eyes, brushed back the thick
hair frdm her face, and could see where
the shadowy form of her father waa
lying at the other side of the tent He
was very quiet, and she was pleased that
he was still sleeping. BhVknow that tho
day before he had been very near to
exhaustion, and so for half an hour
longer she lay quiet, cooing softly to the
baby Jaon. Then she arose cautiously,
tucked the baby In tho warm blankets
and furs, put on her heavier garments,
and went outside.
By this time It was broad day, and she
breathed a sigh of relief when sho saw
that the storm had passed. It was bit
terly cold. It seemed to nor that she had
never known It to be so cold In all her
life. Tho fire was completely out
Kazan was huddled In a round ball, his
nose tucked under his body. Ho raised
his head, shivering, as Joan came out
With her heavily moccaslned foot Joan
scattered the ashes and chaired sticks
where the fire had been. There was not
a spark left In returning to the tent
sho stopped for a moment beside Kazan,
and patted his shaggy head.
"Poor Wolf 1" sho said. "I wish I had
given you one of the bearskins I"
She threw back the tent-flap and en
tered. For tho first time sho saw her
father's face in the light and, outside,
Kazan heard the terrible moaning cry
that broke from her lips. No ono could
have looked at Plerro Itadlsson's face
once and not have understood.
Aftor that ono agonizing cry. Joan
flung herself upon her fathor's breast,
sobbing so softly that even Kazan's sharp
ears heard no sound. She remained thera
In her grlof until every vital energy of
womanhood and motherhood In her girlish
body was roused to action by the walling
cry of baby Joan. Then she sprang to
her feet and ran out through the tent
opening. Kazan tugged at tho end of his
chain to meet her, but ehe saw nothing
of him now. The terror of tho wilder
ness Is greater than that of death, and In
an Instant It had fallen upon Joan. It waa
not because of fear for herself. It was
tho baby.
And then, all at once, there came to her
what old Plerro had said the night be
forehis words about tho river, tho air
holes, tho homo iO miles away. "You
couldn't loso yourself, Joan." He had
guessed what might happen.
She bundled the baby deep In tho furs
nnd returned to tho flrc-bed. Her ono
thought now was that they must have flro.
She made a little pile of birch-bark, cov
ered It with half-burned bits of wood,
and went Into the tent for tho matches.
Pierre Itadlsson carried them In a water
proof box In a pocket of his bearskin coat.
She sobbed as she knee)ed beside him
again, nnd obtained the box. As the flro
flared up she added othor bits of wood,
and then some of the larger pieces that
Plorro had dragged Into camp The fl-o
gave her courage. Forty miles and the
river led to their homel
For the first time sho turned to him and
spoke his name as she put her hand on hln
head. After that ahe gave him a chunk
of meat which sho thawed out over tho
flro, and melted the snow for tea. She
was not hungry, but she recalled how her
father hud made her eat ur or five times
a day, so she forced herself to mako a
breakfast of a biscuit a shred of meat
and as much hot tea ub she cov drln't.
Tho terrible hour she dreaded follbwed
that Sho wrapped blankets closely about
her father's body and tied them with
babtche cord. After that she piled all
the furs and blanket that remained on
the sledge close to the fire and snuggled
baby Joan deep down In them. Pulling
down the tent was a task. The ropes
were stiff and frozen, and vhen she had
finished one of her hands was bleeding.
She piled the tent on the sledge, and then,
half covering her face, turned and looked
back.

That waa a very kind act, Israel, and
we are proud of you. Mildred Green

The outstanding feature of tho new
playlets Is easily "Simoon," a weird des

woman of tho Bast and n, deluded, mad
dened, death-driven French soldier as tho
chief figures. It Is an odd, wild nnd dim
cult piece, which Miss Baer, Mr. Ward
nnd Mr. Wallace deserve great credit for
making so offootlvo, terrifying and pretty
much understandable. It enjoys a very
beautiful setting by Howard Ashman Pat
