He told the old women to move over to the bear-painted lodge and after this to live in it. It was theirs. "Is that all?" says Violet, in a tone of surprise certainly, but as certainly in one of relief. Time passed. The boys grew old enough to go out and fast. They had their dreams. Each found his secret helper of mysterious power, and each became a warrior. Still they were very poor, compared with other young men of their age. They had bows, but only a few arrows. They were not able to pay some great medicine man to make shields for them. As yet they went to war only as servants..

"Is that all?" says Violet, in a tone of surprise certainly, but as certainly in one of relief. "I hope she isn't in love with you," she says, slowly. "Poor infant! It is her first essay," says Nolly, pitifully. In the camp was a beautiful girl named Mā-mĭn´—the Wing—whom all the young men wished to marry, but perhaps Red Robe loved her more than all the rest. Her father was a rich old medicine man who never invited any except chiefs and great warriors to feast with him, and Red Robe seldom entered his lodge. He used to dress as well as he could, to braid his hair carefully, to paint his face nicely, and to stand for a long time near the lodge looking entreatingly at her as she came and went about her work, or fleshed a robe under the shelter of some travois over which a hide was spread. Then whenever they met, he thought the look she gave him in passing was friendly—perhaps more than that..
