SYNOPSIS
As Alan Garth, prospector, Is pre
paring to leave for his mining claim
In the Far North, a plane lands at
the airways emergency station. In
It are Burton Katnill, millionaire
mining magnate; his daughter, Lll-
lth; and VivlRn ltuxby, pilot and
mining engineer. Believing him to
be only an ignorant prospector, the
men offer to make an air trip to
Garth's claim, although they refer to
his samples of platinum-hearing ore
as nearly "Worthless." Lilith Ham-
ill, product of the Jazz nge, plainly
shows contempt for Garth. Through
Garth’s guidance the plane soon
reaches the claim Rite. Huxby and
Itamlll, after making several tests,
assure Garth his claim Is nearly
valueless, but to "encourage” young
prospectors they are willing to take
a chance In investing a small amount,
h'ensing treachery ahead, Garth se
cretly removes a part from the mo
tor of the plane. Huxby arid Lilith
taunt Garth, but their tone soon
changes when they try to start the
plane. Returning to shore they try
to force Garth to give up the miss
ing part. Garth manages to set the
monoplane adrift and the current
carries It oyer the falls, lie points
out that he Is their only hope In
guiding them out of the wilderness.
Garth begins the work of preparing
for the long Journey. He Insists
that the others help, Itamlll and
his daughter must be hardened for
the hardships ahead In their trek to
the outpost on the Mackenzie. Garth
experiences difficulties In getting
his companions into line. An experi
ence with a bear helps. Returning
from a long sleep in the woods,
Garth finds the party has stolen the
tea and sugar he has been saving
for emergencies. He makes no ob
jection, simply pointing out that he
Is accustomed to a strict meat diet,
and that they nre hurting only them
selves. The work of getting ready
for the trip continues. Huxby re
fuses to help, und works on the
mining claim.
CHAPTER V—Continued
—9—
No man of tin- engineer's coldly cal
dilating' character would stop at any
thing, when the stakes of the game
meant a placer worth a million or
more. Mother Nature could now be
counted on to keep (In* spoiled heiress
In line. But the Wild would only
sharpen anil Intensify the engineer's
craft and avarice.
After eating Ids till, Garth took to
Huxby’s bed, beside llie smudge-lire,
lie wakened to hud that the sun hud
token Its northern dip and was Just
stunting up again above the mountain
crests. It hud been under much longer
than In June. The summer was get
ting well niong.
Huxby had stayed on watch to keep
tln> tire going, lie met Garth’s off
hand good morning with a show of
civility. Ills cool reasoning had brought
him to the realization that nothing
was to bo gained by upstaging Garth.
When Miss Itamlll left the leanto,
Garth stooped In under the low roof
und began to rub her father’s knees
and hips. The millionaire groaned
that he had been stricken with a ter
rible attack of lumbago and rheuma
ttsrn. It was Impossible for him to
move.
Heedless of the plaints, Garth rolled
the compluiner out beside the cold
baked leg of moose. The "sick” utan
ute more than either Ills daughter or
Garth. Afterwards, insistent urging
and the promise of an easy work-out
persuaded him to get on tits feet. They
wandered around through the woods,
with frequent pauses In the glades.
When, several hours later, they re
turned to camp Miss Kamil! had com
pleted one moccasin and was doggedly
stitching at Its mate. Huxby came
down from tin* trough with the gold
pan. Garth molted the last of the
moose fat In It and tried n heaping
mess of mushrooms. For salad, he
shook a quantity of pleasantly acid
sorrel from the bottom of his pall.
With berries for dessert, the meal be
came a banquet. While it lasted
there was a general glow of good feel
ing. Kven lluxhy spoke pleasantly to
Garth.
As before, Garth turned In at the
same time as Mr. ltaniill. He wakened
to find the first pair of moccasins
finished. The girl had met his terms.
He gave lluxhy the moss bed, and
started to collect tlntttsh stones as
heavy as he could toss. When he had
pitched a dozen or so upon the cache
platform, he strung the smoked slices
of meat on rawhide thongs. Itaktrg
aside the smudge-fire, he stood on the
reck and tied all the meat close up
under the cache platform.
He then climbed upon the platform
anil piled the stones on the tie-thongs
where they came around the poles. That
would keep wolverines or other pilfer
ers from gnawing the rawhide to let
the meat fall. No fourfooted crea
ture could now get at the meat on the
under side of the platform, and even
ravens would have difficulty stealing
much of it. To complete the job, Gartn
pulled off the cross poles of the smoke
rack.
For breakfast, the party finished
the baked leg of moose. As Garth
had foreseen, his three city camp
mates had developed camp appetites.
Better still, they were less Irritable.
Their craving for drink and tobacco
had begun to lessen.
At timberline Iluxby went up the
trough with the gold pan. Garth
headed again for the glacier. This
time Mr. Uainill did not pant und gasp
so hard, nor did he have to stop so
often to rest. The first climb had done
more than strengthen his wind and
flabby muscles. It had burned up the
autotoxins in his system as well as
sweat off many pounds of fat.
He managed to climb all the way to
the lower end'of the glacier. It took
him less time than tils part-way climb
and he was tar less exhausted. While
he rested ,n a sunny nook on the rocky
side of the lateral moraine, his daugh
ter went down In Vront of the glacier
with Garth. They came to the chan
nel where ttie milky stream gushed
out of a tunnel cave in the blue-white
Ice.
Garth pointed to a shelf of rock on
the near side of the stream. He
walked Into the cave along the smooth
ly polished ledge. Lilith Itamlll shud
dered and glanced up fearfully at the
steeii over-hanging Ice face tha*
seemed about to crash down. Yet
after a moment’s hesitation, she fol
lowed Garth Info the chilly blue
shadow of the cave.
Several yards from the entrance
Garth stopped before a narrow side
hole that opened above a waist-high
uprise In tiie bedrock. He reached
In and picked up u bundled white skin.
Out In the sun he opened the skin and
showed n piece of frozen meat.
“How’s that for cold storage?’’ he
said. "Killed a young mountain sheep
on my way ouf, last month. Thought
I’d test the glacier. Looks as If It’s a
safe meat house. No chance of spoil
ing, and not even a wolf has ventured
Inside."
Miss Itamlll said nothing. She saw
no reason to consider ttie cave of the
slightest Interest. There was, however,
the meat. She suggested that If It
was not spoiled, It would make a
change from the moose meat. This
proved true. Down at camp the young
mutton was first thawed in cold water,
then stewed In the gold pan.
The descent had been made by Ita-
mlll without aid. There was no need
to support, much less back-pack him.
He had really begun to get a start In
training. To Garth tills was all ttie
more reason for pushing ttie million
aire so much the harder.
In the week that followed, he al
ternated more climbs wit h trips around
Into the muskeg swamps. He led his
sweating, swearing charge over nigger-
head grass, where the heavy-bodied
city man had to jump nimbly from one
big tussock to another or take a
tumble.
Miss Kami 11 tagged along on these
grueling hikes. She also made an
other climb up the gulch. Garth
cached in the cave the hundred pounds
of smoked moose meat he had brought
up on his pack-board. He then led on
up the glacier, halfway from Its foot
to the top of the pass. That gave the
three climbers some real Ice work.
Coming hack, Garth knocked three
brace of fool liens from spruce limbs
with a stick.
The half dozen grouse made a pleas
ant change. But even with a pail of
salmon berries for dessert they prove 1
a scant meal for the four meat-eaters.
The last leg of moose had already
been baked and eaten, the tongues
broiled, and the second muffle slewed.
The remainder of the smoked meat
would not last long. So far. Garth
had not Interfered with Huxby’s all
day panning out of the platinum alloy
lie had not even asked to look at the
take of precious metal. Food was a
different matter. Instead of shooting
another moose, he called upon lluxhy
to Join In a caribou hunt.
A hand of the big animals had drift
ed along the tundra terrace over
towards the glacier. Garth counted
fifteen. He waited until the band
came within seventy-five yards. He
then let drive, shooting rapidly yet
with careful aim. One after another
dropped, each with a bullet through
the head. The stupid beasts stared In
the direction of the sharp reports. But
they could see nothing. The sixth
went down before the nine survivors
wheeled and clattered off In panic-
stricken flight.
The flaying was well under way
when Huxby and Miss Knmill came
hastening aslant the tundra ahead of
Mr. Katnill. The girl eyed the clean
delicious-looking white fat on the first
fia.vod body. “That looks good, Alan!
Vivian, you can go back to your min
ing. Dad and 1 will help here."
Her father called out a panting sug
gestlon for Huxby to wait and carry-
down a load of meat.
“No need,’’ Garth said. “Don’t stop.
Huxby. Most of this venison is going
on lee. None will be allowed to
spoil.”
The engineer did not linger. He
had looked none too well pleased over
the girl’s familiar use of Garth's first
name. Along with his displeasure
about this, there could he no doubt of
tils eagerness to get back to the plat
inurn panning. Each successive day
he had shown himself still keener to
continue the sampling of the placer.
When Garth finished the flaying ol
the caribou, he started to dress out the
bodies. Greatly to his astonishment,
at the cutting up of the second carl
bou, she took the belt-ax and began to
help. Mother Nature had cracked the
polished shell of artificiality in which
the pampered heiress bad been en
I cased. The girl's few days in the
Wild had awakened primitive Instincts
| ground deep into ttie nature of woman
during the remote past of mankind.
Down through countless ages her pre
historic ancestresses had learned ttie
bitter lesson that, in the Wild, days of
plenty are certain to be followed by
days of famine. The cave man hunted
the meat; the cave woman hoarded
what she could of it against the time
of want. Otherwise her children
starved.
So, upon reflection, Garth’s amaze
ment passed. He had managed to
cover it, even at the first, when Lilith
Kami 11 took the belt-ax In her slen
der hand and severed the neck bone
of the caribou with a single blow.
Her father was ttie one who stared.
He sat watching the girl’s quick, eager
wielding of the hand-ax, his mouth
slack, almost agape. Garth could only
surmise how she had always been
coddled and pampered. Her father
knew it. He knew how, since her
childhood, she had been wrapped
about with silken luxury, waited upon
by attentive servants, petted and
spoiled.
The millionaire had been horn on a
farm. He could recall seeing his
mother help butcher sheep and hogs.
But she was a farmer’s wife. Lilith
would not have known how to prepare
a spring chicken for the pan. And
now she was cutting up caribou.
Aside from an occasional word of
direction, Garth said nothing. When
he finished dressing out the fifth car
cass, tie handed his knife to his eager
helper, packed a load of meat, and
carried It to the Ice cave.
Down in the gulch bottom he chose
a pothole stone that would hold per
haps three quarts. In the bowl he
coiled a wick of twisted dry caribou

Blue Shadow of the Cave.
moss, piled In caribou fat, and lighted
the wick. When the fat melted, the
wick burned with a strong steady
flume. Caribou ribs furnished a grat
ing on which to broil steaks. The fat
meat was deliciously tender, its flavor
between venison and beef.
When even Mr. Itamlll could eat no
more. Garth carried the stone lamp
into the ice cave. Upon his return, he
had Mr. ltaniill and Lilith look close
at the caribou skins.
“You see they are hair, not fur. But
every hair is hollow. Nothing is
warmer than a caribou parka. In
fact, the winter coat is too warm to be
worn. That is why I killed six now,
instead of one. You have never win
tered in the North.”
Mr. Itamlll tensed as If prodded.
"Wintered? You can’t mean to Infer
you expect to stay on here. We have
your promise to take us out."
Garth turned to meet the Intent gaze
of the girl’s blue eyes. They looked
as cold as the blue Ice of the glacier
tunnel. None the less, they had great
ly changed since he had first seen
them, over on ttie Mackenzie. They no
longer showed a trace of their former
cynical tiredness. The girl might be
as hard as ever, but she was no
longer bored or ennuled. For another
thing, she had begun to lose her exces
sive thinness.
lie answered her father: “You
have my promise—more’s the pity.
A winter a la Eskimo would be a won
derful experience for Miss Kamill.
However, she will of course prefer to
go hack to jazz and cocktails, to
paint, powder and lipstick.”
She flared: “And rid of you!”
“To he sure. That above all else,”
lie agreed. “So how could 1 deprive
you of that pleasure, or fail to give
your father and your fiance another
chance to bilk me out of my plaear
claim? 1 agreed to get you back to
the Mackenzie. When we reach the
old post, we part company. You and
Huxby will then be free to go as far
as you can.’’
“But in that case— No, you can't
make me swallow it. I know you’re
not such a fool as to risk losing that
placer.”
Garth laughed outright
“What d’you take me for? Your
brand of gold-digger? Gad, that's the
nubbin of it all. It’s the reason why
men like you and Huxby lose out. You
worship the golden calf. Yet what
value is there to riches other than
what you get from them? Can you
think of a more enjoyable game
than playing draw poker, with our
lives in the jackpot, and Fortune deal
ing us the cards of chance?"
“What’s the catch?” Inquired Miss
Kamill, with a sudden upwelllng of her
sophisticated cynicism. “ ‘Lives in
the jackpot’—that means nothing.
It’s your placer that’s in the pot. What
stakes do you consider we have in to
balance it?"
“That would be telling,” he teased.
"You’ll know if I win. If I lose, it will
not matter to any of you what you've
risked. The showdown may come
sooner than I expected. Your father
is already in fairly good shape. We’ll
start the trip out as soon as these
caribou skins have been tanned.”
CHAPTER VI
Hell in the Muskegs.
Garth sat beside the camp fire, sew
ing new moccasins for himself. Near
by, the millionaire dealer in mines and
Ills fastidious daughter scraped the
raw sides of the six caribou skins and
rubbed them with the tanning mixture
of fat, liver and brains. Garth had
told them they could either tan the
skins, or wait for him to do It. Until
the tanning had been finish, the trip
out would not begin.
Mr. Ramill was so keen to start
back for civilization that he went at
the disagreeable task with energy and
determination. Lilith, not only worked
as vigorously as her father, she showed
a real interest in the tanning.
Huxby took no part in this prepara
tion of the skins. When he came down
to the camp from the platinum placer,
the sight of his fiancee’s doing such
squaw work struck him speechless.
He stared In blank amazement. When
at last he found his voice, he started
to threaten Garth:
“You’ve gone a bit too far, you
roughneck. Stand up, or I’ll kick you
up. I am going to—”
The girl broke in, with cool scorn:
“Tune off, old dear. You’re set on
static. It’s not Interference we want.
Dad and I are giving this performance
under our own direction. You see,
it’s a bargain. Alan agrees ts start
our trip out Just as soor. as these
skins are all tanned."
The mining engineer drew back. “So
soon as that? My dear girl, If he’s
going to rush us off, I don’t see how
I can spare any time here In camp.
I haven’t yet sampled all the area of
the placer.”

Manure Most Important
in Aiding Plant Growth
The chemist’s analysis of a short
ton—2,000 pounds—of well rotted
barnyard manure reveals that it is
made up of 1,500 pounds of water
and 500 pounds of dry matter. This
500 pounds of dry matter contains
approximately ten pounds of nitro
gen, five of phosphoric acid, 13 of
potash, eight of lime and five of sul
phur—a total of 41 pounds of chem
icals—plus 459 pounds of organic
matter, or “humus.” In addition, as
serts an authority In the New York
Times, It contains a supply of cer
tain bacteria and other microscopic
organisms which Are essential in ef
fecting changes In the soil—the
"breaking down” of chemical, com
pounds existing In the soil Into sim
pler and more soluble forms.
In other words, manure Is so val
uable In gardening because It pro
vides, combined in this one substance,
three distinct soil aids: - first, small
amounts of the main plant food ele
ments (nitrogen, phosphoric acid and
potash) and also of lime (not a food
element but a “digestion accelerator”
in the plant’s diet); second, a supply
of humus or organic matter which
helps to change any uncongenial, un
responsive soil into moisture-holding,
friable, productive loam; and, third
ly, an active, thriving population of
bacteria beneficial to plant feeding
and plant growth.
Pressed Wood
Pressed wood, especially the tem
pered grade, has almost unlimited
use3 in home improvement and dec
oration. One woman used It effective
ly to replace the bottom of a piano

tered In window sills and on chairs.
This same materia) was used to cover
the unsightly top of a general utility
