oyed the dance and the
joys you have had as much as you who have taken part in it. We are both
so happy to know that you have become brothers. When we leave this
village the Brabos will know that they are safe from all harm, and that
their enemy is our enemy, and that if anyone in either of the tribes is
injured it is the duty of all the tribes to come to his aid.

"You must also know that everyone has a right to his own property. If I
should take anything from one of you I ought to be punished. Everyone
should be made to know this. If a Saboro takes anything from an Osaga
without his consent, the Saboros should be the first to punish him, and
if they do not then the other tribes should punish him.

"We are bringing all the tools from our village, so that we can teach
you how to make many wonderful things. We must find a suitable place to
put up the machinery. Each tribe will send some of their people there to
learn, and then the same things will be put up in your own lands.
To-morrow we will go south to establish this place."

There was one thing which was a source of grief to the boys, and that
was the herd of yaks, which had been left behind. John spoke to Uraso
about it, and Sutoto, who always considered the boys first, suggested
that he and Muro would take two dozen of the warriors and bring the herd
back.

The boys would have enjoyed this outing with him, but the necessity of
utilizing their services in the erection of the workshop and installing
the machinery, was too urgent to permit it. The boys made it a
condition, however, that Sutoto should be with them in the active work,
as soon, as he returned.

The Brabos regretted the leave-taking, but were delighted to learn from
the Professor that he expected them to contribute a number of their men
to accompany the expedition.

They passed through the Kurabus' village the next day, and the Professor
called the Chief to him. "We want some of your men to accompany us,
because we want to teach them the same as the other tribes."

This announcement was a most gratifying one, and he answered: "The White
Chief has made us give him our hearts. My brother and my son will go
with you."

Could anything have been more expressive of the intention of the Kurabus
Chief? The lad was about the same age as the boys, and they led him out
to the wagon, and showed him the wonderful things, and then began the
efforts to find words to express their meaning, and enable them to
un
