"It's not bad going up ithe Finly as far as the Kwadocha. | But from there . . ." {| He shook his head. He was short and thick, 'and his jaw hung heavy with disapproval. "You're still seventy miles from the Stikine when you end up at the | Kwadocha," he went on, thumbing the map. "Who the devil will you get to take you on from there? | + Straight over the backbone of the | { Rockies. No trails. Not even a Post | there. Too rough a country. Even | the Indians won't live in it."" He was silent for a moment, as if reflecting | deeply. 'Old Towaskook and his tribe are on the Kwadocha," he added, |as if seeing a glimmer of hope. "He might. But I doubt it. They're a| {lazy lot of mongrels, Towaskook's | | people, who carve. things out of {wood, to worship. Still, he might.

Three days later they left Hudson' Hope, | with Baree riding amidships. The mountains loomed up swiftly after this, and the second day they were among them. After that it was slow work fighting their way up against {the current of the Finly. It was tre- {imendous work. It seemed to David |that half their time was spent amid ithe roar of rapids. Twenty-seven {times within five days they made |portages. Later on it took them two {days to carry fleir canoe and sup- {plies around a mountain. Fifteen {days were spent in making eighty {miles. Easier travel followed then. It was the twentieth of June when |they made their 'last camp before {reaching the Kwadocha. The sun {was still up; but they were tired, jutterly exhausted. David looked at (his map and at the figures in the ipotebook. he carried. He had come |close to fifteen hundred miles since |that day when he and Father Ro- | land and Mukoki had set out for the! |Cochrane. Fifteen hundred miles. | | And he had less than a hundred more lto go. Just over these mountains-- |somewhere beyond them. It looked |easy.

It was the week of the Big Festi- val when David and his half-breed arrived at Towaskook's village. To- waskook was the 'farthest east' 'of the totem-worshippers, and each of his forty or fifty people reminded Da- vid of the devil chaser on the canvas of the Snow Fox's tepee. They were | dressed up,'as he remarked to the | halfbreed, "like fiends.' ' On the day of David's arrival Towaskook him- self was disguised in a huge bear head from which protruded a pair of buffalo horns that had somehow drifted up there from the western prairies, and it was his special busi- ness to perform various antics about his totem pole for at least six hours between sunrise and sunset, chanting all the time most dolorous supplica- tions to the squat monster who sat, grinning, at the top.

He] turned out, very shortly, to be a] communicative and rather likeable | young fellow. He was ignorant of the white man's talk. But he was a master of gesticulation; and when, in climbing their first mountain, David discovered muscles in his legs and back that he had never known of | before, Kio laughingly sympathized | with him and assured him in vivid | pantomime that he would soon get used to it. Their first night they camped almost at the summit of the mountain. Kio wanted to make the warmth of the valley beyond, but those new muscles in David's legs and back declared otherwise. Straw- berries were ripening in the deeper valleys, but up where they wera it! was cold. A bitter wind came off the Snow on the peaks, and David could smell the pungent fog of the clouds. E> They were so high that the scrub twigs of their fire smouldered with scarcely sufficient heat to fry the bacon. David was oblivious of the discomfort. His blood ran warm in hope and anticipation. He was al- most at the end of his journey. It had been a great fight, and he haa Cat Out This Ad. size tablet of INFANTS-DELIGHT.

Day after day they made their way westward. It was tremendous, this journey over the backbone of the mountains. It gave one a different conception of men. They were like ants on these moun- tains, David thought--insignificant, rawling ants. Here was where one might find a soul and a region if he had never had one before. One's bitterness, at times, was almost frightening. It made one think im- pressed upon one that life was not much more than an accident in this vast scale of creation, and that there was great necessity for a God.

That | night Towaskook visited David at his | camp, a little up the river, to see | what he could get out of the white man.. He was monstrously fat--fat from laziness; and David wondered | how he had managed to put in his hours of labor under the totem pole. | David sat in silence, trying to make out something from their gestures, as his half-breed, Jacques, and the old chief talked. Jacques repeated it all to him after Towaskook, sighing deeply, had risen from his squatting posture, and left them. It was a terrible journey over those mountains, Towaskook had | said. He had been on the Stikine | once. 'He: had split with his tribe, | and had started eastward with many { followers, but hait of them had died | --died because they would not leave | their precious totems behind--and | so had been caught in a deep snow that came-early. It was a ten-day journey over the mountains. You went up above the clouds--many times you had to go above the clouds. He would never make the journey again. There was one chance--just one. He had a young bear hunter, ioK, his face was still smooth He had not won his spurs, so to speak, and he was anxious to perform a great feat, especially as he was in love with ' his medicine man's daughter, Kwak-wa-pisew (the Butterfly).
