0f P. E. Island (By; Joe) runs YET]: oarrrvn mono THE mosraos

In the days when Malpeque was ‘the chief Indian village- in this Island, they held captive for three years a white man by the name of Lawrence Polrier.

Here is the legend in part:

Polrier, a local fur trader and smith, found it profitable to trade with the natives through their chief, Nataka Maquina, who was a dignified savage, six feet tall and well proportioned.

The dark copper-hued chief al- ways wont about with lags and arma covered with red paint; his

' eyebrows were shaded in black in

ftwo broad stripes, and his long black hair was done up in a high mound on the top of his head and plastered with bear's grease, the whole crown being powdered with white down, giving him a rather extraordinary appearance. Mantled across his broad shoulders was the akin of a sea otter, which reached almolt to his knees and was fasten- ed round his waist with a wide belt made from the bark of a tree. This fantastic hair-do and dress lent to the huge savage a look of magnifi- cence.

Through years of barter Polrier

- and the chief became quite friend-

ly, and while a visitor to the Indian village the Frenchman would set up a. rude forge and make iron trinkets and steel arrows for the tribe.

One day Nataka came into the forge and, throwing down a gun whose lock had been broken, said:

"Look! Him no good."

The Frenchman, who was a bad- ‘tempered man, called the chief a liar and threw the gun at his feet. Nataka frowned darkly but said nothing.

Two daya later, when Polrier was about to depart, the chief ordered Ihla warriors to seize him and make him a prisoner. In the ensuing scuffle a savage struck at him with an axe, making a deep gash in his forehead, so that he fell to the ground, dazed and bleeding.

When he came to himself, Law- rence Polrier was in the chief's Wigwam. Water was brought and _hla face washed free of blood stains. Asked if he would be slave to the thief and. make steel arrows for his ‘bowl, the Frenchman replied in the affirmative and was ordered to klaa his master's hands, which he obligingly did. Meantime the peo- ple cried out for his death, but the chief turned a deaf ear to their pleadings. A tobacco leaf was placed over the wound in his head and he was permitted to lie down and sleep.

That night the savages danced a wig-

Of course, girls at that age think they are in love, because they have never experienced any real love and so have no standard of com- They think they are in love becausethey get a kick out of meeting a boy and they fill their thoughts full of him, and they have a good time when he is around and miss him when he ls absent.

But this is just because they are feeling the first thrill of adoles- cence, and it flatters them to death to realize that they have sex attrac- tion, and they are so much in love with the idea of being in love that they can imagine themselves in love with any boy who happens along.

Another cancer dis- cbvory is that there are aknplo or harmless growths which, for aom: reason, develop into cancer. Also, that cancer cells are not supplied with nerves by the body although

And so it was that last evening,

_ as is uaual when we come to spread a solitary meal for ourselves, the .

remembrance of woman out of ,the long ago accustomed to the like, returned to mind. She was a maiden lady, then about the three score and ten, attractive atiil and most gracious, white-haired, blue-eyed with a stern but kind face. She dressed in dark gowns, tight bodiced then and long aklrt- ed, theseverlty relieved by a white scarf, bowed beneath a chin, and the pretty shawl of mauve wool or paisley. she wore about _her shoul- ders. As a child we were allowed the. privilege of visiting her, on an errand usually, and often those occasions have a way of returning to our thoughts. 0f all it is those made in the shortened daya of Fall which come backsnore clearly.

Quick footsteps would carry us thither then, when a crisp twilight was enclosing the surrounding countryside, and lights were al- ready commencing to appear in the other houses in the village, which extended now and changed even be- yond recognitlon, lies near our old home by the Strait. lf one cared to, though there was thennothing extraordinary in the sight, on the way one might stop ,brlefly to glance in at the village smithy. There in a dim corner glowed the forge-fire, and here by the open door a horse awaited his fitting while the leather-aproned smith beat out "a fine new shoe, with a cling and a clang" and a cascade of sparks, on the anvil beyond. O O I

But as you stopped a moment or proceeded at a more leisurely pace past. you remembered "Now don't be long, ‘_Ellenl" the motherly in- junction which had been given you at the outset. For invariably there were tiresome spellings waiting return, and you were well aware that no excuse under heaven could serve to stay one’: bedtime, nor lengthen that magic spell which precedes it. "Don't you children know that ‘Early to ed and e ly to rise. makes one ealthy and wealthy and wlae'?" was the quotal tlon which dispersed any sign of ‘ispleasure or. that account, though one of the brood would willingly have forgone any one or at least two of these virtues then. to have been allowed to remain down stairs at least "until'th‘e clock strikes!"

But how could one hasten this outing, which offered one such pleasant prospects? Though it was as well to remember that the return trip should not_ be delayed too long. Only brave lasaies could step out into the deepened night. This was a bewitching abode-this small cot- take to which ln answer to your hollow knock, presently a stout bolt was slipped back and you were admitted with: "Oh, it's you, E1. leni" The place was compact and neat and enveloped in a peace and quiet which could not be found In a h rne where ‘a larg: family dwelt,
