The mystery which is threefold the Vedas, Yoga, and Vijnana Dharma, Artha, and Kama also various books upon the subject of Dharma, Artha, and Kama; also rules for the conduct of mankind; also histories and discourses with various srutis; all of which having been seen by the Rishi Vyasa are here in due order mentioned as a specimen of the book.
Lil Artha likened their progress to the ways of the Siberian wolf that follows its quarry day and night until in the end its very persistence wins the victory. "We're in this to the finish," he was fond of saying whenever he had the chance, "and sooner or later we'll get him. The boys of the Wolf Patrol mean to stick to their name, and run the prey to the earth. He just can't get away nohow.
Such criminals usually are, though in this case it might be otherwise, Elmer had told them, since he believed the man had been a prisoner making his escape when first he struck Sassafras Swamp, and concluded to have his hide-out in its depths. Still Lil Artha was not for taking too many chances.
"What happened?" gasped Landy the first thing, for he was digging his fat knuckles into his heavy eyes as though trying to rout the last atom of drowsiness from them. "It was me," replied Lil Artha, promptly; "I fired my gun!" "What at?" demanded Elmer, thrilled in spite of himself. "A creeping man!" came the astounding answer. "Wow! what's all that, Lil Artha?"
"P'raps we'll learn a heap more about it after we stwike the farm we're heading for," suggested Ted. "And there, if you look now you can see the house among those trees, with smoke coming out of the chimney at the kitchen end," said Elmer, pointing ahead. Lil Artha deliberately took chances by removing one hand from the lines, and vigorously rubbing his stomach with it. "Oh!
One way or the other suited the scouts just as well, so long as they overtook Hen. When Landy found that he was puffing from his exertions he took an extra grip on himself and would not listen to Lil Artha when the tall scout proposed that he drop out.
At the time, Lil Artha happened to have passed a little in the lead, though he would soon be dropping back again, especially when there came a chance to make a mistake in direction, for he wanted Elmer to decide such puzzles. The tall scout must have forgotten his warning from Elmer, for he cried out: "Hey! everybody look what we're up against! A bear, Elmer, that's what it is!"
"Keep your gun aimed at him, Lil Artha," commanded the scout-master, "and if he tries any funny business let him have it in the legs. Here, Landy, you and Chatz sit on him while I secure his hands." The man attempted no resistance, for he realized the folly of it. He did groan, however, when Landy squatted down on his legs, and the other fellows could hardly blame him for grunting.
In short, an intelligent and knowing person, attending to Dharma, and Artha and also to Kama, without becoming the slave of his passions, will obtain success in everything that he may do." According to Vatsyayana, Kama should be taught just as is taught say, hygiene or political economy. "A man practising Dharma, Artha and Kama enjoys happiness both in this world and in the world to come."
"It's just this way," continued the other, briskly, as though only too willing to show his hand, "you see Johnny has followed the same passage in here so often now he's actually gone and left a trail behind him." "Say, what are you giving us, Lil Artha?" demanded Toby; "on shore a trail is all very well, but the water leaves none.
