She would lovingly paint my face, hang the wampum about my waist, and lead me to her wigwam in the wilderness, where she would faithfully grind my corn and fricassee my puppy. It was for this I had escaped Sally Spitfire for this that my unhappy bashfulness had driven me far from home and friends. She unfastened the rope from the stake, and led me proudly away. My very soul blushed with shame.

He tried to take my gun from me," the boy explained hotly. "Take him out to the bunk house, boys. I'll attend to him later," nodded Buck, turning away indifferently. Stung to fury by the cavalier manner of his enemy, the boy leaped at him like a wild cat. Weaver whirled round again, caught him by the shoulder with his great hand, and shook him as if he had been a puppy.

That's my opinion on 'em, and I'll tell 'em so, if ever I see 'em!" exclaimed Mrs. Nichols, her wrath waxing warmer and warmer toward the destroyer of her daughter. Pausing for breath, she helped herself to a pinch of her favorite Maccaboy, and then passed it to Mr.
