A large hlock of rock shout ten feet high, already provided with = dw{ crack or figsure, ip front - of which, to the north, was a. small plateau, sharply relleved agalinst the sky except for the confeal tp of a distant peak, seemed to us an {deal place from which to work., The three men whorn we had taken up were set to work enlarging the crack by removfng sowe big &tones which had fallen in, after which the side was buflt up with rocks, and also the front. Then two of the men were sent down to cut a couple of voung fir trees, with the cut-up trunks of which we ponstructed a roof When thig was artistically cov. ered with turf it looked so natural that one day | nearly walked over it myself, and on another occasion & raven sat on 1t while 1 was inside.

In this rock prison I spent nine days of about nine hours each, the Jager coming up every day about sunset to release me. " One day my attention was attracted by the flanping of powerful wings, and [ expected every moment to see either eagles or vultures appear. on the carcass (I must explain that 1 could only see what was going on through the camera lens itself and my view therefore was rather restricted). Nothing came into sight, however; but still the flapping continned, and 1 soon became aware that a flerce con fiict was raging outside my prison. The noise was tremendous; It really sounded as if two express trains. or perhaps” two airships, were rushing through the alr In deadly combat.

It was Friday night, and his laundry had been delivered as usual, neatly packed and with the inevitable weekly bill tucked in the flap of the wrapping, He tossed aside the ticket and tore open the package. There lay a filmy, snowy article that was never meant 1o adorn a stalwart, young-old bachelor. He picked it up gingerly and hastily grabbed his laundry ticket.
