Text Appearing Before Image:
e faces of wilder-7» ness men—low-voiced Indians, andtfhZ% whites with no home but the mountains.Once more we feel the pack andtump-line, and stagger weary into camp as thesun dips beyond the ranges. But there is no sting in an arduous task welldone, and the memory of cold and sleet-numbedbodies brings no suffering. The man who has never pressed a rifle-butt tohis cheek, does not know himself. Our wald side,handed down to us from the stone age, can only bearoused by warfare or the excitement of the hunt.Life in the wilderness is arduous, savage, and hard;but it is free as the mountain wind, and as open as thesky. The vsalderness man is rough; but he doesthings with his hands and by the sweat of his brow.He is a knight of the pack-strap and gun, andhis generosity and courage are as boundless as hiskingdom. And so when our thoughts drift back-ward towards the old days, they rest lovingly on thebattered rifle—the open sesame of the wilder-ness, and the out-door man s best friend. 32
