<p>Diabetes Gone in 7 Days?<br /> The men were earning from twenty to th=
irty dollars a month. They had, most of them, never seen Hank Paul before t=
his autumn. He had not, mainly because of his modest disposition, enjoyed a=
ny extraordinary degree of popularity. Yet these strangers cheerfully, as a=
matter of course, gave up the proceeds of a week's hard work, and that wit=
hout expecting the slightest personal credit. The money was sent "from=
the boys." Thorpe later read a heart-broken letter of thanks to the u=
nknown benefactors. It touched him deeply, and he suspected the other men o=
f the same emotions, but by that time they had regained the independent, se=
lf-contained poise of the frontiersman. They read it with unmoved faces, an=
d tossed it aside with a more than ordinarily rough joke or oath. Thorpe un=
derstood their reticence. It was a part of his own nature. He felt more tha=
n ever akin to these men. As swamper he had more or less to do with a cant-=
hook in helping the teamsters roll the end of the log on the little "d=
ray." He soon caught the knack. Towards Christmas he had become a fair=
ly efficient cant-hook man, and was helping roll the great sticks of timber=
up the slanting skids. Thus always intelligence counts, especially that ra=
re intelligence which resolves into the analytical and the minutely observi=
ng. On Sundays Thorpe fell into the habit of accompanying old Jackson Hines=
on his hunting expeditions. The ancient had been raised in the woods. He s=
eemed to know by instinct the haunts and habits of all the wild animals, ju=
st as he seemed to know by instinct when one of his horses was likely to be=
troubled by the colic. His woodcraft was really remarkable. So the two wou=
ld stand for hours in the early morning and late evening waiting for deer o=
n the edges of the swamps. They haunted the runways during the middle of th=
e day. On soft moccasined feet they stole about in the evening with a bull'=
s-eye lantern fastened on the head of one of them for a "jack." S=
everal times they surprised the wolves, and shone the animals' eyes like th=
e scattered embers of a camp fire. Thorpe learned to shoot at a deer's shou=
lders rather than his heart, how to tell when the animal had sustained a mo=
rtal hurt from the way it leaped and the white of its tail. He even made pr=
ogress in the difficult art of still hunting, where the man matches his sen=
ses against those of the creatures of the forest,--and sometimes wins. He s=
oon knew better than to cut the animal's throat, and learned from Hines tha=
t a single stab at a certain point of the chest was much better for the pur=
poses of bleeding. And, what is more, he learned not to over-shoot down hil=
l. Besides these things Jackson taught him many other, minor, details of wo=
odcraft. Soon the young man could interpret the thousands of signs, so insi=
gnificant in appearance and so important in reality, which tell the history=
of the woods. He acquired the knack of winter fishing. These Sundays were =
perhaps the most nearly perfect of any of the days of that winter. In them =
the young man drew more directly face to face with the wilderness. He calle=
d a truce with the enemy; and in return that great inscrutable power poured=
into his heart a portion of her grandeur. His ambition grew; and, as alway=
s with him, his determination became the greater and the more secret. In pr=
oportion as his ideas increased, he took greater pains to shut them in from=
expression. For failure in great things would bring keener disappointment =
than failure in little. He was getting just the experience and the knowledg=
e he needed; but that was about all. His wages were twenty-five dollars a m=
onth, which his van bill would reduce to the double eagle. At the end of th=
e winter he would have but a little over a hundred dollars to show for his =
season's work, and this could mean at most only fifty dollars for Helen. Bu=
t the future was his. He saw now more plainly what he had dimly perceived b=
efore, that for the man who buys timber, and logs it well, a sure future is=
waiting. And in this camp he was beginning to learn from failure the condi=
tions of success. Chapter IX They finished cutting on section seventeen dur=
ing Thorpe's second week. It became necessary to begin on section fourteen,=
which lay two miles to the east. In that direction the character of the co=
untry changed somewhat. The pine there grew thick on isolated "islands=
" of not more than an acre or so in extent,--little knolls rising from=
the level of a marsh. In ordinary conditions nothing would have been easie=
r than to have ploughed roads across the frozen surface of this marsh. The =
peculiar state of the weather interposed tremendous difficulties. The early=
part of autumn had been characterized by a heavy snow- fall immediately af=
ter a series of mild days. A warm blanket of some thickness thus overlaid t=
he earth, effectually preventing the freezing which subsequent cold weather=
would have caused. All the season Radway had contended with this condition=
Even in the woods, muddy swamp and spring-holes caused endless difficulty=
and necessitated a great deal of "corduroying," or the laying of=
poles side by side to form an artificial bottom. Here in the open some six=
inches of water and unlimited mud awaited the first horse that should brea=
k through the layer of snow and thin ice. Between each pair of islands a ro=
ad had to be "tramped." Thorpe and the rest were put at this disa=
greeable job. All day long they had to walk mechanically back and forth on =
diagonals between the marks set by Radway with his snowshoes. Early in the =
morning their feet were wet by icy water, for even the light weight of a ma=
n sometimes broke the frozen skin of the marsh. By night a road of trampled=
snow, of greater or less length, was marked out across the expanse. Thus t=
he blanket was thrown back from the warm earth, and thus the cold was given=
a chance at the water beneath. In a day or so the road would bear a horse.=
A bridge of ice had been artificially constructed, on either side of which=
lay unsounded depths. This road was indicated by a row of firs stuck in th=
e snow on either side. It was very cold. All day long the restless wind swe=
pt across the shivering surface of the plains, and tore around the corners =
of the islands. The big woods are as good as an overcoat. The overcoat had =
been taken away. When the lunch-sleigh arrived, the men huddled shivering i=
n the lee of one of the knolls, and tried to eat with benumbed fingers befo=
re a fire that was but a mockery. Often it was nearly dark before their wor=
k had warmed them again. All of the skidways had to be placed on the edges =
of the islands themselves, and the logs had to be travoyed over the steep l=
ittle knolls. A single misstep out on to the plain meant a mired horse. Thr=
ee times heavy snows obliterated the roads, so that they had to be ploughed=
out before the men could go to work again. It was a struggle. Radway was e=
vidently worried. He often paused before a gang to inquire how they were &q=
uot;making it." He seemed afraid they might wish to quit, which was in=
deed the case, but he should never have taken before them any attitude but =
that of absolute confidence in their intentions. His anxiety was natural, h=
owever. He realized the absolute necessity of skidding and hauling this job=
before the heavy choking snows of the latter part of January should make i=
t impossible to keep the roads open. So insistent was this necessity that h=
e had seized the first respite in the phenomenal snow-fall of the early aut=
umn to begin work. The cutting in the woods could wait. Left to themselves =
probably the men would never have dreamed of objecting to whatever privatio=
ns the task carried with it. Radway's anxiety for their comfort, however, c=
aused them finally to imagine that perhaps they might have some just ground=
s for complaint after all. That is a great trait of the lumber-jack. But Dy=
er, the scaler, finally caused the outbreak. Dyer was an efficient enough m=
an in his way, but he loved his own ease. His habit was to stay in his bunk=
of mornings until well after daylight. To this there could be no objection=
--except on the part of the cook, who was supposed to attend to his busines=
s himself--for the scaler was active in his work, when once he began it, an=
d could keep up with the skidding. But now he displayed a strong antipathy =
to the north wind on the plains. Of course he could not very well shirk the=
work entirely, but he did a good deal of talking on the very cold mornings=
"I don't pose for no tough son-of-a-gun," said he to Radway, &q=
uot;and I've got some respect for my ears and feet. She'll warm up a little=
by to-morrow, and perhaps the wind'll die. I can catch up on you fellows b=
y hustling a little, so I guess I'll stay in and work on the books to-day.&=
quot; "All right," Radway assented, a little doubtfully. This hap=
pened perhaps two days out of the week. Finally Dyer hung out a thermometer=
, which he used to consult. The men saw it, and consulted it too. At once t=
hey felt much colder. "She was stan' ten below," sputtered Baptis=
te Tellier, the Frenchman who played the fiddle. "He freeze t'rou to h=
ees eenside. Dat is too cole for mak de work." "Them plains is su=
re a holy fright," assented Purdy. "Th' old man knows it himself,=
" agreed big Nolan; "did you see him rammin' around yesterday ask=
in' us if we found her too cold? He knows damn well he ought not to keep a =
man out that sort o' weather." "You'd shiver like a dog in a bria=
r path on a warm day in July," said Jackson Hines contemptuously. &quo=
t;Shut up!" said they. "You're barn-boss. You don't have to be ou=
t in th' cold." This was true. So Jackson's intervention went for a li=
ttle worse than nothing. "It ain't lak' he has nuttin' besides," =
went on Baptiste. "He can mak' de cut in de meedle of de fores'."=
"That's right," agreed Bob Stratton, "they's the west half =
of eight ain't been cut yet." So they sent a delegation to Radway. Big=
Nolan was the spokesman. "Boss," said he bluntly, "she's to=
o cold to work on them plains to-day. She's the coldest day we had." R=
adway was too old a hand at the business to make any promises on the spot. =
"I'll see, boys," said he. When the breakfast was over the crew w=
ere set to making skidways and travoy roads on eight. This was a precedent.=
In time the work on the plains was grumblingly done in any weather. Howeve=
r, as to this Radway proved firm enough. He was a good fighter when he knew=
he was being imposed on. A man could never cheat or defy him openly withou=
t collecting a little war that left him surprised at the jobber's belligere=
ncy. The doubtful cases, those on the subtle line of indecision, found him =
weak. He could be so easily persuaded that he was in the wrong. At times it=
even seemed that he was anxious to be proved at fault, so eager was he to =
catch fairly the justice of the other man's attitude. He held his men inexo=
rably and firmly to their work on the indisputably comfortable days; but ga=
ve in often when an able-bodied woodsman should have seen in the weather no=
inconvenience, even. As the days slipped by, however, he tightened the rei=
ns. Christmas was approaching. An easy mathematical computation reduced the=
question of completing his contract with Morrison & Daly to a certain =
weekly quota. In fact he was surprised at the size of it. He would have to =
work diligently and steadily during the rest of the winter. Having thus a d=
efinite task to accomplish in a definite number of days, Radway grew to be =
more of a taskmaster. His anxiety as to the completion of the work overlaid=
his morbidly sympathetic human interest. Thus he regained to a small degre=
e the respect of his men. Then he lost it again.</p>=20
