"What next, Phil?" _ "We must send the swiftest man you‘ve got in camp after Billinger, and get word to the other partios you sent out as quickly as we can. ‘They‘ll probably get in too late. Billinger may arrive in time." "He‘s ‘been gone a week. It‘s doubtful if we can get him back within three," said MacDougall. "I‘ll send St. Pierre‘s cousin, that young Crow Feather, after him as soon as he can get a pack ready. You‘d better go to bed, Phil. You look like a dead man." Philip was not sure that he cou‘d sleep, notwithstanding the physical strain ‘he had been under during the past twentyâ€"four hours. He was filled with a nerveus desire for continued action. Only action kept him from thinking of Jeanne and ‘Thorpe. After MacDougall had gone to stir up young Crow Feather he undress ed and stretched out in his bunk, hoping that the Scotchman would soon Teturn. Not antil he closed his eyes did he realizte how tired he was. MacDougall came in an hour later, and Philip was asleep. It was nine o‘clock when he awoke. He went to the cook‘s shanty, ate a hot breakâ€" fast of griddle cakes and bacon and dranÂ¥# a pint of strong coffee, and then hunted up MacDougall. Sandy was just coming from Thorpe‘s "He‘s a queer guinea, that Thorpe," § said the engineer, after their first greeting. "He doesn‘t pretend to do | a pound‘s work. Notice his hands ‘ when you look at him again, Phil. | ‘They look as though he had been drumming a piano all his life. But love o‘ mighty, how he does make the others work. You want to go over and see his gang throw dirt." "That‘s where I‘m going," said Philip. "Is Thorpe at home?" "Just leaving. There he is now!" At MacDougall‘s whistle Thorpe turned and waited for Philip. "Goin‘ over?" he asked, pleasantly, when Philip came up. "Yes, 1 want to see how your men work without a leader," repli Philip. He paused for a moment to Hight his pipe, and pointed to a wroup of men down on the lake ASK THIS HALIFAX NURSE \ By James Oliver Curwood. was not sure that he could everything I‘ve got on rubbed his hands and 3} shore.

"That‘s why I want to see them in action, when you‘re away." "My policy is to know to a cuble foot what a certain number of men are capable of doing in a certain time," explained Thorpe, as they walked toward the plain. "My next move is to secure the fren who will achteve (he result, whether 1 am present or not. That done, my work is done. Simple, isn‘t it?" There â€" was â€" something likable about Thorpe. Even in his present mood Philip could not but concede that. He was surprised in Thorpe, in more ways than one. His voice was low, and filled with a certain companionable quality that gave one confidence in him immediately. He was apparently a man of education and of some little culture, in spite of his vocation, which usually posâ€" gesses a vocabulary of its own as hara as a rock. But Philip‘s greatâ€" est surprise came when he regarded ‘Thorpe‘s personal appearance. He fudged that he was past forty, perâ€" haps fortyâ€"five, and the thought made him . shudder inwardly. He was twiceâ€"almost three timesâ€"as old as Jeanne. And yet there was about him something irresistibly La".rnotlve. a fascination which had His nails dug into the flesh of bis hands when he thought of this man and Jeanne. * ‘Thorpe‘s gang was hard at work when they came to the end of the roadâ€"bed. Scarcely a man seemed. to take notice when he appeared. ‘There was one exception, a wiry redfaced little man who riased a hand to his cap when he saw the foreman. ‘That‘s the subâ€"foreman," explainâ€" ed Thorpe. "He answers to me." ‘The little man had given a signal, and Thorpe added, "Excuse me for a moment. He‘s got something on hi‘s mind." He drew a few steps ‘aside, and Philip walked along the line of laboringâ€"men. He grinned and nodâ€" |ded to them, one after another. Macâ€" Dougall was right. â€" They were the Itoughest dot of men he had ever ‘Iseen in one gang. . he saw tHat Thorpe and the sub~ foreman had approached a hue,‘ heavyâ€"shouldered man, with whom l‘tpoy seemed to be in serious alterâ€" cation. Two or three of the workâ€" lmon had drawn near, and Thorpe‘s voice rang our clear and vibrant. "You‘ll do that, Blake, or you‘ll shoulder your kit home. And what goes with you goes with your clique. i know youre kind, and you can‘t worry me. ‘Take that pick and digâ€" or hike.

He selected his men for the Gray Beaver work, and in the afternoon despatched a messenger over the Fort Churchill route to meet Brokaw. He was confident that Bfl;h;l and his daughter would show up during the next few days, but at the same time he instructed way. Other men he sent to recak the prospecting parties outfitted by MacDougall. Early in the evening the St. Plerre‘s, Lecault and Henâ€" shaw joined him for a few minutes in the office.

It would be practically im possib! for his enemies to surprise the camp, and after their first day‘s scout duty the men on the trail would always be within sound of rifleâ€"shots, even if they did not dis cover the advance of ‘an attacking force in time to beat them to camp. ’ln the event of one making such & discovery he was to signal the othâ€" ‘en by a series of shots, such as one might fire at & running moose. Philip found it almost impossible to fight back his thoughts of Jeanne.
